6.5 upgrade

Ive been working off v3 for awhile now and read this the other day, it made me think.... am I missing something here? I understand these features are going to be on the final but this made it sound like they are already on our betas such as:

new and improved Internet Explorer (flash enabled and full page rendering as well as panning support)-----flash isn't working for me and can't get it to, am I retarded?

microsoft marketplace app built in--I know there wouldn't be anything there anyway but.. I don't see it

I flashed my xv6900 to 6.5 V4 yesterday to give it another try. Everything seemed to be working fine but I decided to flash back to 6.1 Vzw 1.15. While it was running customizations someone called me. Ever since I've had issues. I thought I had resolved it with a hard reset last night but this PM it basically locked up on the HTC splash screen. After numerous flashes between 1.15 and 1.14 with similar results, I decided to see if v4 would work again. After a couple of hours including two or three soft resets, it froze on the HTC screen again. I can do a hard reset and get it back. I've never had any problems with NFSFAN's ROMs before (not that this is caused be his ROM). I read some posts from Feb about Sprint phones having a similar issue and DD suggested it might be a page pool issue. But I can't find any resolution posted. There was some talk about flashing the original ROM and then the custom ROM but no results posted (that I could find). This doesn't seem to be caused by launching any particular program. It's more of a time issue. It works for four or five hours and then locks up and when I soft reset freezes at the HTC screen. Any ideas?

Thanks,

i was in the church and i wanted to check the time and i clicked on phone by accident and i saw it like that :S

freaking weird i though it was something that could be fixed on a restart..

o well

i installed like 3 skins the last one worked...

just to tell u to check that out on your next release or i dont know

also

is it possible to have the slide to answer and unlock whatever its called the 6.5 unlocker just that like a little app but to make it work like if it was 6.5.. i really dont like 6.5 too smooth for me i guess but i like the slider :eek:

Does that mean that you tried installing different skins for your dialer before the issue occurred, or afterwards?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] mikedav01:
This method does work. Just be sure to use the correct files for your carrier. Read it through and then.. read it again. Its a little tricky, but the second time (hopefully there isn't), its much easier to do.

Its not really "my" fix, it was just an idea that i tried after reading a bunch of other posts regarding the MMS issues. :p That is strange that some users require .net instead of .com. Hopefully if NFSFAN makes reference to it in his 6.5 post he will note that as well.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
newer builds are coming out all the time with newer sys and xip files being integrated into kitchens...

If your referring to newer builds themselves of the pre-release/alpha-beta version from Microsoft, well that takes someone with access to the actual newer version on a phone itself that would be a concept or beta hardware of a phone from a supplier or vendor to rip the data from - and that is NOT easy to do LOL

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
no issues here with selecting multiple emails and doing a mass delete, rather smooth actually, check my touchscreen settings a few posts/pages back and compare to yours

Just did it with yahoo with stylus - VERY smooth and easy

Just did it with GMail with finger - VERY smooth as well, not as accurate but easy

I do alot of email checking and maintenance though as well so at most I will only have to select 3 to 5 emails or so but I can try again if I can let myself let a full page or so collect LOL

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
16316 is the last build I know of and I did a full google search a day or two ago with the whole file name up to 15 (leaving off the 316) and that was the highest I could find

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Ive personally never ran across this issue in any version of 6.1 or 6.5 myself and I use whole songs as ringers and notifications, only because Im too lazy to use the MP3 Ripper to make smaller ones to be honest LOL

But nice to know 6.5 wont have this issue at all now

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Yeah, I asked about 21202 (even heard of a 21204 also) and if it would be in V5 of the 6.5 ROM (mostly Touch Pro/Diamond/Touch HD Kitchens, ETC) - several are utilizing it currently in new ROMs but if it is stable as of yet I can only wait on see

Then again, if every Chef upped the ROMs they make with every sys/xip released then this would no longer be a hobby but a full time job 24/7 LOL

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Are you attempting to flash from bootloader or with the EXE through activesync? and if from bootloader from your PC or SD card?

If from exe through activesync -

Connect phone to pc

wait or start actiesync connection

doubleclick on ROMUpdateUtility.exe

if from bootloader (my personal way YMMV) -

Copy the NBH file from your HDD to SD Card

rename the NBH file to VOGUIMG.nbh

press and hold power+camera+stylus in reset hole until screen changes and follow steps

there is another bootloader way as well same as above but connect to PC after rainbow screen and you will see the SERIAL change to USB and then run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file

(no need to copy nor rename files I believe, never used this method)

glad it worked for ya .. as for 6.1 over 6.5, personally I dont have a full preference as I love the fluid functionality of 6.1 with TF2D/Manila but I am learing the ins-outs of 6.5 and finding it is pretty good itself, IM not really a fan of the honeycomb startmenu and the scrolling, but once 6.5 v5 is released I will work on creating folders within there and customizing my shortcuts into those more as well as opening up the column count for 4, 5 or 6 across as well to make it even smoother, faster for me to use

why is m2d slapped on everything now? I think of it as people buying a corvette and then putting chrome rims on it. WHY?! why!

For me M2D slows down the phone, it won't slide completely back and forth, its slow itself, the navigation is inhibited, switching through text message with a little arrow is horrible, it always hangs at the footprint, after a soft reboot it hangs up the phone for awhile, etc....

21202

Just a little news. NFS and myself been working on 21202 build of Windows Mobile 6.5.

V5 release should be coming tonight and include:

Upgraded Build to 21202

Manila 2D (iolite, but with footprints disabled)

Manila 2D Customizer

CEHome Customizer

DeviceLock to allow lock on sleep

Increased overall volume 40-45% (System, Ringer, CarKit, Headset, Handsfree, Earcuple)

Adjusted PagePool to 20MB

Fixed Power settings when System Status screen is disabled

AND more goodies :P

SIDENOTES:

FACEBOOK WILL NOT BE ADDED BACK. When it is more stable then it will be. So for now stop asking.

The CDMA dialer is staying for V5.

Opera is not going to be included, so again stop asking.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
While I hear this in the minority, the question is, if you dont like it why not utilize one of the original 6.1 style ROMs or perhaps cook your own without M2D

Now with that, what custom ROMs are you using or have tried and are these observations across all that you have tried (being youve tried more than one) as there is one 2 that I found unusable in a way youve described but the rest Ive used have all been quite functional without ANY of the issues you stated.

Personally I find a reference of buying the corvette and putting chrome rims on it incorrect, more like buying a corvette (original style cube based ROM) and changing the paint job metallic or prismatic (M2D/6.5) as the car is the same, the engine, the tires, exhaust, etc - but the whole look is different

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] stopthebus:
Yeah...That's kind of sad isn't it. You can't customize M2D either, if you look at this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=451702, which is all about M2D skins. All 18 pages of it is the same skin with different colors and fonts that's all. Oh well, just thankful for what we got.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Sounds great, cant wait to check it out, personally I think facebook as well as Opera or Skyfire and even IE should be separate installs per user discretion anyway, as too many apps that all really do the same just hog up a ROM and as some spout Opera others Skyfire and even other like IE its not that bad to just download a truly base ROM with full functionality and then add tools that you prefer or want to it afterwards but just my opinion.

Hey Guys i'm gonna sound like abit of a noob here but i got a few questions.

I've Flashed Plenty of devices but they all have been GSM i'm currently with a touch pro...When i flash my phone i simply take out the sim card etc...after the process is done with i pop it back in and it's ready to go...

i was wondering with a CDMA Phone...how does that work?...sice there is no sim card obviously...do you call your cell phone provider afterwards and give them the Cellphone information again...or does it automatically work after the process?...

and also is there anything else i should watch out for?...

Thanks for your help Guys, It's Very Much Appreciated!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] margosmark:
It usually just works, no need to contact the provider, watch out for.. amke sure you use the right roms... you mention touch pro, this rom is not for the touch pro, its for the vogue.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
OK .. lets break this down

Original style rom, what customizations were there - backgrounds, colors, text/clock fonts OR your could pay SPB for a shell app that just covers the original hogging up RAM/ROM for looks - yes speed was there still but its still just paint over the original or god forbid an app to cover it all up to look like an IPhone (hmmm want an IPhone on a WinMO device? umm OK)

so then TouchFlo2D or Manilla - smoother interface, better sys/xip compatability fonts and clock faces can be changed as well as digital or analog or both and yes alot of real estate lost to a clock or a giant internet icon, but the side to side slide for differing pages of items works great and is much easier for finger use rather than stylus dependent use

along the same time Android, running a linux based OS on WinMO much as Linux users run Wine to utilize windows apps, nice to play with, fun to work with but for me in my opinion just not functional enough for day to day usability

next generation comes along, WinMO 6.5, like it or not it IS coming but that doesnt mean that when it is actually released on phones themes and the like wont be available to modify it to look/act as you want, including backtracking it to TF2d or even 6.1 basic

Now Im no fanboy of WinMO 6.5 but I do like it and it is growing on me, personally I do like TF2D but the style is always the same regardless of changes, but then guess what same with all of them 6.1 to 6.5 android or not, its always going to have a basic look regardless unless you outright add a shell (mortscript, SPB, RToday or whatever)

Like it hate it, whatever, use what you want, but make a rant usable in a thread like asking for things to be fixed or stating problems that exists within a specific ROM rather than just coming in and kvetching over a ROM that it doesnt even sound as if you use let alone like, and as I said before, dont like these ROMs, fine... dont like any ROM of this style, OK cool, cook your own then - the tools exist, the documentation is there, the files are at your disposable, so whats stopping you?

i can't get MMS to work on any of the latest NFSfan roms....the last time it worked was at 1.12 on the 6.1 rom =/
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] stopthebus:
I don't want to go into this but....I said I was THANKFUL for what I got. I am not asking for a customize ROM. M2D is USER INSTALLABLE and does not have to cook into the ROM. I am not NFS, but if I am, it would make sense to me to reach as many users as possible since donations are welcome. There are people who don't like M2D and by include it in a ROM, you are alienating those people, which is unnecessary when a simple cab will do. I said it again I do thankful for what's available.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] htctoucher:
stopthebus

i kind of agree.. however having it cooked into the rom A. makes it easier for those users who dont feel like doing their own tweaking to get it to work just right B. allows NFSFAN to do is magic on it and make it run perfectly, quickly/integrate seamlessly into the rom etc

forexample, i was never able to get footprints to work on my vogue.. then i flashed this rom.. and voila.. footprints was working ;)

i have no idea how he did it nor would i have been able to get it to work, so i cant be more grateful he has chosen to cook it in

also, you always have the option of disabling it as a today item..
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
OK, just so its understood, I am not trying to start a argument, just stating ideas in rebuttal to you and one other person on this thread for the sake of clear conversation..

The idea is more people DO want the M2D than of those that do not, and in that there are alot of ROMs still being updated based on the original 6.1 interface if that is what you seek then great but I guess I am saying you dont have to settle for something that in all reality right now is a minority of users that still want the 6.1/Cube interface or the other option is to cook your own or request of a Chef to make you one IF that is you can find enough people to request it as well.

Personally I hated the 6.1/Cube interface, seemed for such an advanced device why use such a basic, ugly UI - much like slapping Windows 3.1 on a Quad Core PC, granted it did what it needed to just seemed very clumsy and basic like an electronic franklin covey when it could be more streamlined and better looking, again just my opinion

again, not looking for an argument as I understand your point, just not why you use something you clearly dont want when there are alternatives available

again, in my opinion this [/URL][/IMG] is great and all and everything is right there but with simply turning off "windows default" in the today section and turning on everything else, you can have what was whereas this [/URL][/IMG] to me is more friendly and better looking and still gives me everything I need within a finger swipe one direction or the other but it really it a matter of personal choice and desire

Can't search contacts with keypad, only qwerty...

Why can I not enter contacts through the keypad interface through multitap? When I attempt to do so, it only enter numbers instead of letters...I had this problem with both 6.5 and 6.1. It seems that only way to search contacts is through the use of the qwerty keyboards available, which I personally do not prefer. Thanks! Peace.

I don't think we're talking about the same thing.

Entering numbers in contacts yields no results in contacts.
