Like i said to Detriot Doug, on the other 6.5 builds (conflippers, WDM) there is another icon in settings that lets you select lock screen on wakeup or something to that effect. It lets the new lock screen operate like s2u2. It its a nice feature because i like that lock screen vs s2u2.

If you can add that, it would be awesome.

Hmm... One thing I've come across a few times so far today is when trying to exit out of the text messages part, it'll freeze up but after a minute or two it'll clear.

If I've been tapping around, all that stuff like quickly flicks by when it comes out of this freeze. Sort of like there's a huge processing load that it's trying to do and eventually comes out of it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
Yea, I hear you. Again like I said, MS didn't finish WM6.5. Its still only internal testing. Too bad with 6.5 I can't revert to 6.1 files, we lose the entire SMS functionality.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
Um do this in lock setup in settings. Put "Prompt if phone unused for", specify your desired time. Put a password in. Then wait the time you put in, and it will automatically lock the screen after the selected time even when you put the phone in standby.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] WythDryden:
Personally, I've never had the GSM dialer lock up on me, or had any other issues happen with it. Ever.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] goldengraham:
Its not quite the same thing. I like to have my phone locked every time i put it into standby so i don't buttdial (or hip dial) people. I don't want to enter a password, just do the slide thing (like pressing lock soft key in the new start menu). It's in a couple other ROMS, check it out, its like built in s2u2, but more interactive with more info (and cleaner).

Thanks, Sprint 1.11 is looking good thus far. Good Job!!!

Well, I saw that the gradients in the Rhodium menu weren't smooth. (images were distorted?) I also saw that the gray round corners were cut off at some ends. Ok, FIXED! I also added a lighter tint to the menu greens, so that it matches the Flat Black Bars theme. HERE! :D

BTW, hey NFSFAN, The ROM works awesomely so far! Just one question, If there a way to take out the menu that pops up when you are entering the a contact in the email or text messages "To:" field? I type a contact name, and it shows contact matches in the Full qwerty keyboard, and a drop-down also pops up under the field, so they both sorta conflict. Any way to take the drop-down? Like, a registry value? (Sprint 1.11 ROM, March 26th upgrade.) Thanks!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] NFSFAN:
Ya, turn off suggestions and T9 when in that field.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] leadpoizon:
T9's been off, and under Input setting, I unchecked "suggest words.." and "auto correction" just tried it and the phone froze? o_O

Tried it after soft-reset, same things... Surely this wasn't happening in the previous builds. I don't know anything, but i was just thinking maybe something was left over from the Rhodium hard keyboard settings? Thanks!

There's a third option which takes the best of both the new GSM and the old CDMA dialers. Their is a CDMA diamond Rom which contains a S2A CDMA dialer. With this dialer we would retain the look and feel of the GSM dialer we have now, plus we would get working data arrows, and the other CDMA dialer goodies.

Here's the thread:

Only problem is that it is VGA so some porting would need to be done in order to get it to work on our QVGA devices. I'm not sure if it's worth NFSFAN's time as he probably doesn't get enough donations as he should for the quality ROMs he puts out.

EDIT:

Here's a link to a sexy black version of the CDMA dialer and also the white one:

Menu is not smooth

Hey NFSFAN,

The 6.5 version on Sprint is awesome. :D I love it. The one thing I noticed is that when let's say you go to text messages and then click on menu, that menu seems to be not responsive to finger scrolling but only by arrows. I think something is wrong there.

Thank again, I will let you know more if I get something.:cool:

Rhodium keyboard? What? I'm using Iolite SIPs. Just tried it, yea it still pops up. Didn't freeze on me tho. I believe its built into the SIPs to automatically show that for contacts.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] leadpoizon:
(Haha, I really don't know what i'm talking about.) Ah, thanks. I guess something in the SIP's was changed from the previous builds. I wish there was a quick fix for that. >_< When I add a contact from either menu, the "To:" get's somewhat messed up and stuck, kinda. So, I can't add anymore contacts. Thanks for trying to help. :o

Separating combined threads ...

NFSFAN,

Is it possible to create a WinMO 6.1 and a WinMO 6.5 threads separately?

I think, from reading this alot of questions and statements recently that are coming through either asking questions that were already answered 3 to 5 posts prior or else people are posting a 6.1 then a 6.5 then 2 more 6.1 then another 6.5 and on and on and with the stability and obvious success and popularity of each of the above mentioned ROMs it would not only be easier for the end users but also in support either from you or users helping users if the threads were separated. seeing as the 6.1 are on page 1 - betas on page 13 and 6.5 on page 238 and mixed about are ideas, requests, fixes, calls for help, etc etc etc LOL

plus it would of course make releasing as well as obtaining new versions and cabs and the like easier as well as if someone is running 6.1 they wouldnt mistakenly use a 6.5 fix/enhancement and mess up something as well

Just an idea

<<vzw 6.5>>sorry i think u mentioned this b4 u released it..when ever i go to compose new blank message and i start to fill it out .. and it shows my contacts as i type in wi ... for will and i click the one i want i get the name and a long bold _________ with usually half or so of the name. and i hit send, it will send that message to a one digit number .. like 3 or 5. but it does work if instead of trying to type out there name just go to menu and add contact through the phone book. i donno if this helps at all or if im being redundant.

Okay, I've installed Bell 1.30 and here are the results from power meter

1. Immediately after install.

-- installed resco explorer

-- installed acb power meter

~65mA with Backlight on

~42mA with Backlight off

2. No2Chem NueLed installed

~65mA with Backlight on

~38mA with Backlight off

hardly any difference, hard reset. Forget NueLed.

3. Windows Live "As Items Arrive"

~68mA with Backlight on

~42mA with Backlight off

4. Windows Live "As Items Arrive" with GreenBattery.cab (puts a percentage of battery left in the battery icon at top instead of the bars).

~ same as 3 with Backlight on

~ same as 3 with Backlight off

On startup, there is approx. 50% memory free as reported by the task manager.

Wm 6.1 rom VZW 1.14

Hello NFS,

First, thanks for such a great rom.

After flashing to this rom, can you tell me what I need to do to get GPS working on this rom.

I was not able to get it working on 1.13 either.

My phone was originally the stock WM6.0 rom. I then updated to the official VZ gps radio. 3.37.78 WM6.1 I let the customs run on the VZ rom and installed Valhalla and my GPS was working great before they went and put a damper on the party. I have read untill my eyes were crossed.

Can you please help? How do i get this to work now with your new rom?

This has been mentioned a bunch of times in this thread. Search XDA for Verizon aGPS fix. You are going to have to flash to a sprint rom then older verizon, then the new NFSFAN rom and edit your QPST values. Follow the aGPS fix instructions it worked for me.

NFSFAN - Its getting kinda crazy in here trying to follow WM6.1 issues and 6.5. Would it be possible to start a WM6.5 beta thread and keep this thread for official WM 6.1 releases.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] chunnell:
Being as there are 239 pages for this post, and no instructions at the beginning, except for my asking and bothering you, there would be no way for me to find the information I need. I appreciate the quick reply, but would appreciate in the future that you recognize that not everyone is as knowledgable on this as yourself and I defer to your good judgement. Perhaps you could see that as a compliment rather than as a bother.

In regards to your questions, I have a CDMA phone from Verizon and I have not unlocked it as I didn't know I needed to. I did click on your link, but it states the following, "WARNING: this will only work with the 3.xx roms (Alltel EXE only at this point)". I have ROM 3.14.605.1 and Radio 3.37.77. Since it says, "(Alltel EXE only at this point)" and I have Verizon, I do not know if I should proceed.

Additionally, I want to run Pocket Mirror from Chapura which will allow me to sync multiple contact, and calendar folders. Will your program work with that? I do not see it when I run a search in this thread.

I just flashed the new WM6.5 ROM. Loving it! It really is so much prettier than 6.1. And it seems much more touch-friendly, too.

All in all, I'm very impressed.

Just an FYI, I've played with a few 6.5 ROMs, and they are pretty kickass (finger friendly,) but they ultimately fail with Exchange. The initial sync works, but once you try to get a new email later, or send one, you get a sync error.

I have been following a few 6.5 threads on different devices, and it looks to be centered around the ActiveSync in 6.5. I wish there was a way to keep the AS from 6.1, and use the other 6.5 stuff. I am really digging the finger-friendliness...

note: I haven't tried your 6.5 ROM yet, but that is the general bickering about 6.5 so far.

I can assure you it works on this one without issue, Ive been syncing with my outlook without issue all day...

I'm wondering if the battery life is an issue here, because Vin's ROM ate my battery oh so fast. And on Vin's ROM it wouldn't let me install PCM Keyboard, and I'm not sure why. If battery is good and I can install PCM then it would be amazingly perfect. Anyone know? Thanks
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
havent noticed much of a battery issue but I knolw about the one Vin's ROM is having alot of default things like BEAM and the like were left on by default, disabling them helped but still drains fast

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] xxmillertimexx:
Thanks for the fast reply, I'm jumping in my seat to figure out which one is the most stable. You seem to know what your talking about, which one would you recommend?

And the issue with PCM Keyboard, its a CAB but shows up as a Windows File that doesn't open. All the rest of my CAB's install like the dialer and AdvancedConfig. I even tried going through IE on the phone and installing the CAB from the PCM site and it still popped up as a Windows File. Any help?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Shidell:

Awesome work man. Great job.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
As I see it currently, this ROM is the most stable, up to date and fastest released of all the WinMO 6.5 ROMs available

Again, I cant attest to battery life as of yet as I am doing so many various things on it plugging it in and out of the cradle I cant get a good status on time of charge as of yet

I had to go and download the PCM Keyboard (PCM_KeyboardEN_0.14 or something like that) from the site, the CAB was viewed and installed fine and even works great with word, notepad (havent fully tested it out)

So my suggestion, go for this ROM - YMMV though as ROM decisions are up to the user all in all

Microsoft removed the actual honeycomb lines in the newest pre-release versions that have been leaked (you can actually check of the videos out there like on gizmodo and engadget and others) Im sure they could be "put" back in but I think it would be something like a registry edit to enable them or a theme or something

Keyboard input issue

First off-love the ROM mod. I bit the bullet and flashed my sprint touch and it works like a charm. I can't believe I waited all this time.

One issue I'm having though is no matter what keyboard settings I use whenever I select a word it will not add a space after the word. For example if I use predictive text/T9 and select a word in the "prediction" bar it will select the word but I have to manually add a space after.

Alternatively I could just hit space, except for occasions when I want to select a word other than what T9 is highlighting, then I have to add a space after the word (gets very annoying).

I've tried turning all options on and off, including the "add a space after word" under the <Word Completion> menu. I tried installing the ripped Touch Diamond keyboard as well to see if I could override/control it that way but still no luck.

Needless to say the space key is driving me bonkers!!! Any help is greatly appreciated!
