Mark,

Long story short, I think you installed the wrong rom :) Nah, seriously, if your phone says its a PH20B, that means that you installed that one by mistake instead of installing the PH20B1. Most cooks make two versions of this rom. You have to make sure that you are installing the right one.

Get a rom that has no RamDisk. In my opinion, it is a waste of good ram, although programs definitely launch faster from Ramdisk than they do from regular storage. I am happy with the way it performs though. One other thing, some programs do not install to storage card even if you tell them to do so. This depends a lot on the developer and there is nothing you can do as far as the rom is concerned.

Like I said with the 42 mb issue. You must erase the memory allocated for the ExtRom in 2003. I believe that I have the 2003SE shipped for the phone. I'll try to look it up and pm it to you when I find it. Regarding one of my last statements, you will need to go back to 2003 since you need to resize the ExtRom to free memory.

BTW, the three color bars are not the bootloader. Believe it or not, that is the initial splash screen. No one has been able to figure out how to change it for the BA.

Good luck!

OK I got the hint. I write too much! :p

[/QUOTE]

Regarding the programs installing to device, all the ones I've tried that installed on SD with WM2003 and Sun_Dreams 20758, are now installing to memory. Maybe I have a bad flash. For now I'll re-flash and enjoy this ROM untill I get the said PM. I trully apreciate your effort on finding that Ship Rom for me :). I was worried about getting the bootloader screen at startup LOL Oh well, I'm learning. I'll post back later and let you know how my reflashing went. Let me go help some folks on the Torn side. Later mate.

PD: You're going to laught at me on this one... Is it normal that the phone wakes up every umm say 20 minutes without being touched? I'm guessing its my girlfriend sending signals so I get out of here and call her LOL.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] motisu:
It is very normal if you have Bluetooth on. Since WM5, one of the problems with the BT driver is that it turns itself off. Therefore BigMike added a fix to it that wakes it up every so often in order to keep it alive. One of the problems with 2003 drivers adapted to WM5/WM6. We have all learned to live with it. :(

Very grateful to egzthunder1, back to so many problems!

My English is very poor, ha ha:D
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
No problem sun! Glad I could help :)

Do you know the answer to this question? I asked this a while back and have tried a few things since then, but I still can't get the rom to save the settings for the Media Player button (button 7). I have even tried using HButton, but I get the same result. (changes back to default after a soft reset). Any help will be appreciated!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] motisu:
????? Sorry, but I don't get it...:confused:

I also have this problem and have tried various solutions with no success. It is very annoying to want to activate TaskFacade and get Media Player instead!!!!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
"word" is an expression here in the US that would be like saying "that is true"...

As far as the button, I want to put S2P in there. For TaskFacade, I normally assign the Record button...

I am still curious though. One very peculiar thing is that when you try to change the button via Settings menu, the Button 7 icon (which would normally be the WMP icon is not there. I only get a blank space. Has this happened to you? I checked the Reg entry and modified everything in there with no success.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] motisu:
Thanks for the explanation. I am NYC born and raised, but I haven't been back to the US in 30 years. It must be a new slang.:D

I use the Record button for Voice Command.

Sane here. 7 is the only button that has no icon. When I tried to change the registry entry, It did get an Icon in the button app, but after SR, it went back to no button/WMplayer. Really strange behaviour.

I wonder if it also happened in WM2003? I don't remember that far back but it seems that it is an inherent part of the newer ROMs as it definitely was also in WM5.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
I used to use Record for VC as well (I knew you would say that :)). Now, since I only use my device as a PDA (ditched T-Mobile a few months back and my new carrier uses CDMA... at least they are waaay cheaper)

This never happened in 2003 as far as I remember, but it has been an issue since the TuMa roms (ahhh.... good times!)

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
Wouldn't erasing this make my device try to detect a camera? I have an SX66, which doesn't have a camera...

Ohhhhhhh, now I get it!!!!!!!! Since it is always loading this thing on startup, it will write to the registry that since it does not have a camera, it must put something else in its place, in this case it would be WMP.

Do you know if the camera detect can be modified to allow the placement of a different program in it?

I will give your suggestion a shot. Thank you so much sun!!!

Edit: Sorry for screaming but... [highlight]IT WORKS!!!!!!!!![/highlight]....

@moti,

Read my above post, it works like a charm!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] markanthonypr:
Checking every now and then, hopping you find it mate :) so I can go back and re-gain that lost space.

LOL, its ok, Scream away mate, I did the same and woke up my kids and neighbors few nights ago when I got my phone working again. Actually, either I'm getting old and loosing flexibility, or my hands are too big, or fingers too thick lol, but Heckkkkkkkk I had a hard time pressing Record/WM/Power at same time. But I did it with the expected results.

Still showing as PH20B.

Can't that be fixed to show PH20B1 again?

4.

Is there a way to make my phone know its a PH20B1 again?

5.

Can't BA's use Voice Calling or VC over BT?

None of the threads I've read so far include VC. I really miss that feature of Tornado's.

**I downloaded M$VC 1. 6. 19 214, a build that claims to be for PPC. Haven't tried it yet, till I hear some feedback about it w/BA.

Or do you suggest a different one?

Thank You again Mate!

Reboots

I have reported previously that the ROM is stable. Well the ROM is blazzing fast and great however I've encountered these problems:

1) Unusual reboots when device goes in standby mode after some time

2) The launcher in M2D doesn't allow me to add applications

3) WMPlayer got f somehow. But not a problem with the ROM.

4) PsShut caused the device to hang before showing the reset options.

The most annoying was the reboots.Have anyone experienced the same?

I am trying BA_M2D_CE_OS_5.2.20275_(Build_20275.1.3.3)V2 Swampy's ROM now.

Which is the best ROM IYO opinions now?.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] markanthonypr:
Not happening to me either. So I would guess its time to go back and start all over mate. Try Hard Rest first, if that don't help, then Re-Flash and make sure you do the NO, YES, YES thing...

The NO, YES, YES, thing is:

Make sure you do the power + record +WMP as soon as you see the first bootloader screen, but, before you see the R G D HTC BLUE ANGEL text at the bottom right of the bootloader. That is the trick of it. Trust me, I tried way too many times untill I got it. Requires a little coordination, have 2 fingers ready on the Record and WMP buttons, Press the Reset, Quickly place finger on power button, as soon as you see first bootloader screen, press all 3 buttons!!!!! and you'll make it.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] Blowfish64:
I unfortunately am having a problem with this ROM. It keeps misaligning the screen for no apparent reason. Always when I soft-reset, but sometimes even while I'll be in the middle of using it. Very bizarre. Any solution?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
I had a similar issue with my wife's Wizard. Even after installing a new rom, it kept on doing the same thing. I think it might be a problem with the digitizer. In any case, try to hard reset rather than soft reset (make sure you clean the hive). If it is software related, it will be gone by doing that.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] marko_serb:
Same thing was happening to me. The flat cable was begining to snap, and soon the whole screen died. :( Hope it's not the same with you..
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] Blowfish64:
Oh crap, I hope not! I hard-reset and still the same thing, then hard-reset again and it seems to be good so far. Hope it was just some crud in the hive :( Also, I am having one other issue. I have assigned the Windows key to open a program, but when I press it, it opens that program PLUS the one assigned to the Internet Explorer key. I am using AE Button Plus so i thought it must be a conflict there, but even after uninstalling that I'm still getting the same thing. Anyone else having that kind of problem?

And one last button related thing, anyone know how to remap the long-press of the power button? I've searched but haven't come up with anything. All the solutions for the newer model phones don't work.

newbie question

Currently my XDA IIs is upgrade to this version:

Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional

CE OS 5.2.19199 (Build 19199.1.0.0)

My questions are:

1) how do i flash Mr Sun_Dream's

WM6.1 CEOS 5.2.20758 Build 20758 Aku 1.4.1 WWE

0MB RAMdisk,25.2MB PP

to my BA?

2) what are the files that I will be needing?

3) do I really need to updgrade/flash this ROM?

thanks very much guys!

Welcome to the site. Please take some time and read the rules and regulations for posting and site rules (found in my signature).

Follow the following link to the wiki. There you will find a step by step process on how to upgrade/downgrade your rom.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade0

You have a pretty stable build. The one that you want to upgrade to is a bit faster and more stable, so if I were you, I would go for it (then again, I can't live without flashing ;))

Good luck...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] HSNet:
Hi egzthunder1,

I have a Question if I may. Firstly this may be cross posting in a way, but im new so please forgive my ignorance.

I recently bought an XDA2s (used them in the past and loved it but only sold due to it breaking).

Just bought one and it has the following on it

ROM Version: 6.11.00.WWE

ROM Date: 04/06/08 < UK Format perhaps

Radio Version: 1.06.00

Protocol Version: 1337.38

ExtROM Version: xplode_7.00

Im assuming this is the one without the RamDisk ?

Would I be better of with Ramdisk? or better off without?

What release would you recomend that has all the required bits etc with it (drivers, and so on). As it stands I like the version I have now except for a few niggles. The feedback service, the htc home screen (not sure how to remove this) and the battery not showing from a glance whats left in it.

Any thoughts / advise?

Many thanks.

T.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
You cannot really tell if you have RamDisk just by looking at the build. At any rate, Sun_dream's latest build is one of the best ones I have had so far. If you are considering upgrading, then go for it.

As far as ramdisk or no ramdisk, it is really a matter of personal choice. I, for one, think it is a waste of good program memory, but then again, programs do run a bit faster when in Ramdisk (when compared with placing the program in storage card). If you know that you use a bunch of Ram hungry apps in your device, then I would advise you to get the non-Ramdisk version because you will need as much ram as you can get. Conversely, if you are a casual user (just outlook apps, phone, contacts, and calendar), then go for the Ramdisk version, since you might be able to put the Ram for something more productive than just having it sitting there...

Hope this helps!

follow up newbie question

sir, thanks for your suggestion. but the link you gave is for upgrading from WM5 or WM2003SE to WM6 and vice versa. i understand my BA is already upgraded to WM6.1.

so to restate my question, how do i flash mr. sun_dreams latest ROM?

sorry if my question sounds so silly... just a newbie.. and just wanna be sure...

thanks!!!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
The instructions are the same.

1. Put device in bootloader and cradle the device (with the AC adapter connected!!!!!!)

2. Run the upgrade tool in your computer and wait until it is complete

3. Soft Reset the device. When it comes to the three colored screen, quickly press "Record" +WMP +Power. In the options that come up, just change them to "No, Yes, Yes" by using the side buttons (record and WMP). Once you changed them, press the "Mail" button. Screen will turn white and the device will soft reset itself.

4. When going through the initial setup, DO NOT PUT A PASSWORD ON THE SYSTEM OR YOU WILL HAVE TO HARD RESET!!!

Follow the instructions in the wiki if you have doubts. They are the same for all versions of WM. Good Luck!

Have fun

Low battery

I have noticed that the battery drains faster than in other roms when in standby.

From cpu usage I've got xpuscalar taking 5-15% approx.

However other users of this rom reported the same so no big deal.

The problem is that I'm getting radio shutdown on approx 40%. The OS behaves weird on low battery - OS hangs on boot up, sudden hang ups (screen freeze and gets black with shadowed windows/text), phone shows a SIM with an x icon in the today screen (top).

Anyone experienced this problem?.

Ramdisk

I have noticed that the ramdisk vanished after some point?. Could it be due to a registry problem? Installation of utility?. Can't remeber or notice when the ramdisk could have disappeared from Resco explorer.

Any ideas?

thanks
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
The battery life in WM6 (and later) has always been a bit of an issue. I have seen multiple people with similar issues, and the best solutions that I have seen are:

* Turn off the IR. It is on by default and it can (and will) consume a chunk of battery.

* Careful with Ram-hungry apps (specially "Today Plugins" that can drain your battery fast)

* Get an extended battery on eBay. They usually go for about $20. It's cheap and well worth it...

As far as the Ramdisk vanishing, this might sound like a silly question, but are you sure that you installed the version with Ramdisk? The Ramdisk is a memory allocation that is done in the Rom itself via Hex editing, so I don't think that a Registry change would do anything to make the Ramdisk disappear. Go to Settings > System > Memory and see how much memory you have in Storage and Program memory.

I hope this helps some
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] egzthunder1:
