Nobody has complained cause this is a known issue with this build. Some people have backlight issues and others don't. I remember one of the time i flashed the rom that i had that issue, but it went away at some point so i never looked for it again.

As for the call issue, you must disable fast sleep AND allow sleep while in call to keep that from happening. In addition your 10 second backlight timeout issue may also be causing you trouble here.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] trick420:
Yeah, I did a search, and didn't find anything that specifically addressed this problem with the backlight. There's also an issue where the backlight turns on and off randomly with the phone in sleep. I did find that this was a problem in searches... Nothing about the 10 second default backlight time.

I did find that I had fast sleep turned on, so thanks for pointing that out to me.

Is the backlight problem special to the BE ROM or all Death roms? If it's only on the BE rom, I may jump over to the full V4 rom.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] scotchua:
It's specific to all builds off that AT&T 214 builds. Tehre are several roms. Interestingly enough, there are a lot of people who didn't have issues with it either. So i'm not sure i can give you an answer.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jdmba:
This might very well be true. It was not present in the v6.0 stock ROM, and since the 6.1 stock ROM never made it to AT&T Tilt users, I had to use Death BE to upgrade. Once I did that, however, the power button/screen flash bug hit me. It is, however, NOT a SPL issue because I had run the stock 6.0 ROM under the latest SPL (as Dutty's ROM was badly misconfigured when it came to Internet access, and I downgraded away from it). The stock 6.0 ROM under the latest HardSPL did not have the power/backlight bug.

If you look at the thread, there are some well known bugs (proxy, backlight, keyboard [default really should be immovable if its going to cause this much trouble), but not many of them. I keep hoping every day that a new version of this ROM which repairs these few items emerges.

Blackberry Connect / Multiple Data Sessions

I have gotten Blackberry Connect to work perfectly with this ROM. The only issue I have is that this ROM, which is very fast and stable by the way, will only support one data session at a time. So, while I'm doing anything else that requires a data connection I do not receive emails.

I did a search, and there are several ROMs that support multiple data sessions. I manually did the registry hacks, but according to the threads this has to be actually cooked into the ROM from the start in order for it to work.

Just wondering if this feature could be included in any updates.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] snooginsguy:
LOL Exactly!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] rgrmike:
I had the Same issue - chaiging from Draggable SIP fixed the issue.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jdmba:
Reading thru this forum shows the draggable SIP has gone from a 'quirky feature' to an 'awful bug' :(

Anyway, I am keeping my fingers crossed that we see a re-cooked ROM soon, fixing the miscellaneous issues out there (which seem pretty set at this point). Its funny ... I get my hopes up every time someone posts to the forum, since the heading STILL reads "*NEW VERSIONs* up" ... only to have them dashed :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] scotchua:
Why don't you just do the registry edit and reboot? Then no more "awful bug"
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jdmba:
That's an easy one! I did. But if you search through this forum, and count up the number of different people who have had problems all rooted in this "feature," then that's a lot of people that need to do a registry edit. At some point (YMMV as to how many people need to have a problem before you consider that point reached, but I think its long been reached), the need for so many people to apply a patch to change behavior means ... well, it means that it's a bug. This is not an issue of people not liking the movable SIP. It is the resulting issues of phone freezing, the bottom of the keyboard being cut off, etc. Those are bugs ... and just because they are bugs brought on through the implementation of a "feature" doesn't make them any less.

I think this is very comparable to the proxy bug. That too is solved fairly simply (through changing all settings to MEdia Net, running hiddenproxy [or whatever its called], rebooting, and unclicking proxy under MEdia Net). But a simple solution does not mean that it's not a bug.

To Showgun's credit, there are only a handful of bugs in this ROM - which is a phenomenal achievement. I just remain concerned that while things like the proxy bug are clearly bugs, he may not view the movable SIP as one.

1.71.09.01

Has anyone out there tried the new 1.71.09.01 radio with this ROM?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] scotchua:
it should be compatible, why don't you just flash it and find out? Share your findings with everyone.

I must respectfully disagree with you. A bug is when something doesn't function the way it is intended. In this case, the sip functions the way it is intended. If you want to use a different SIP then he even provided the solution. Everyone wants a simple solutions for making the rom function exactly they way THEY want it to, which actually may cause problems for other users. I've seen it in every thread, so i'm certainly not singling you out, especially since you are obviously one who searches for solutions, but honestly the vast majority of the people on the forum are just lazy and have NO concept of how much time goes into finding solutions for all the actual bugs, not to mention all the people who complain about bugs that are introduced simply by not following the proper flashing procedure.

My point being that the backlight issue IS a bug, the SIP issue is a preference.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jdmba:
:) Because I am currently at work, with a LOVELY XP system locked down to limited privileges. I am lucky I can run Word.

Besides, I am the type who is risk averse on flashing (I have flashed the phone exactly 3 times - once to try Dutty's ROM, [ii] then, when I realized that it didn't even come close to working on AT&T's data network, flashing back to the Stock AT&T 6.0 ROM, and then [iii] finally to this ROM due to it being based on the AT&T ROM. We have some fairly ardent flashers (no pun intended) around this forum, and I suspect someone will LOOOOONG beat me to that punch!!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] scotchua:
Well i flashed the radio on garmin's rom, it works fine, i'm sure it's compatible with this rom, just not about battery life issues and such...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] _h4x0r_:
I'm getting this problem too...I installed the SIP keyboard fix, but that doesn't seem to do anything aside from make the on-screen keyboard movable. The problem is more that the text field (where the letters you type show up before the msg is sent) is getting cut off and is only showing one line of text. What is a possible solution for this?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jdmba:
I did it and kept it for 2 days :) The connectivity is great, and I certainly had signal where I had previously had no signal.

However, the battery drain under the ROM was horrific. I was stuck in a seminar and after 1 hour of BeeJive AIM running (not really in use), some email checking, and some freecell, I was down to 50%. Its an awful tradeoff of magii proportions ... would you rather have some battery left but no signal, or good signal but a dead battery :)

There is some talk on another thread about needing appropriate drivers cooked into the ROM. 0% of the time, people offering this solution respond to requests for those drivers, so I assume this is an issue which is not going to be resolved in the short term.

I have reverted back to 1.65.20.29. What gets me the most, is that this phone apparently CAN get a signal in those dead zones, it just doesn't "want" to.

Thank you for your great work. The sound is not working after the ROM flash. Even though I soft/hard reset the phone. Any help is appreciated.

Like the ROM a lot but wondering why my device no longer lets me log into the mobile version of my online banking (wells fargo)? It says that my phone is not compatible with the site. It is a mobile pared down version (www.wf.com) so it has to have something to do with the UI that comes configured with this ROM.

It worked fine when I was using Sleuth's ROM.

Dunno if ShogunMark intends to release an update/bugfix to this ROM but I would love to see the mystery drivers which are supposed to make 1.71 not eat batteries, cooked in.

Other AT&T's

I love the Death Business ROM, but find myself in need of a ROM which may have been more recently updated to include the drivers necessary to not kill the battery when using the 1.71.xx.xx ROM's.

+1 to what swanlm said - this ROM is way faster than other ROM's I've been using - yet stable. I finally got smart enough to update my radio to 1.65.20.29 based on the radio thread and now I have everything...fast ROM, good call quality, battery life, etc.

Movable SIP wasn't a bug in version 4. It was an option that you could remove with a simple registry edit.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jdmba:
Not so much.

Ha ... and that theory, my friend, is my fear here. Although people new to the thread probably haven't read it thru and thru due to its size, there was a point, close to the release of this ROM, that you couldn't go 3 posts without someone having a problem with this "feature". Kind of a "good intention gone HORRIBLY wrong." With the number of problems this caused, the default should be non-movable.

Of course, when/if v5 comes out, if the movable sip bug is still present, batten down the hatches for the volume of posts to that thread from all the people flashing, begging for help. Changing the sip to non-movable will produce NONE of those posts.

Having to set it to non-movable is one of those "mandatory patches" one needs to do when installing this ROM; kinda like disabling UAC on Vista. If you know that handling something one way will cause a lot of problems and another way will not, I certainly know which way it should be handled :)

Fingers crossed.

I also am very interested -

Not trying to be pushy, just very interested in knowing the estimated release date?

3. First quarter next year

4. First Half of next year

5. last half of next year

6. no longer in development

This is far and away (for me) the best ROM, and i would dearly love to upgrade if it s going to be available soon.

For me any option 3 and onward means that I will need to plan on doing something else for a while anyway.
