Hi, i am pretty excited about the added notification sounds menu anyway, on the add programs to the launcher screen in m2d2 i am getting a grey bar right above the softkey bar that is just sitting there, anyone else getting it?

guess that means i am doing a reflash. I am glad i haven't set anything up yet, or messed with settings. And i think ill try the mega dialer this time as long as i remember to edit my sdconfig (finally)

V16 looks great and runs perfectly. Thanks for keeping the touch alive NFSFAN! Just sent in my donation.

Hmm i have reflashed twice more and i am still getting it. I took a screenshot and attached it. Maybe the grey bar above the bottom bar has always been there and i am just now noticing it. It probably shouldn't bother me but since i am at work i really have nothing better to do, lol

Everything works but the internet? Any idea ive flashed phones plenty of times. However this one is a replacement I just got it is unlocked and the radio is current. Any ideas?

disregard for it fixed after installing some cab files.

It has always been there. It is the location bar that lets you know where you are on your list. As you scroll down the bar moves according to the location of the list. Once all my programs load onto the list, my bar is at the top. It moves as I scroll.

Sorry i should have been more clear but since you pointed something else out it makes me think it has always been there, anyway i am gonna edit my picture so you can see what i am talking about, i boxed the suspicious and out of place looking area in red
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] slow88lx:
In this ROM(v16) and in V15 I keep having the new full screen cut/copy/paste menu randomly work and then revert to the standard 6.5 menu. Is this happening for anyone else? I have tried reflashing and it will be there and then I'll soft reset and it reverts back again. I even flashed back to stock today before V16 to make sure no old 6.5 files were left over, thinking maybe this part of previous ROM's weren't getting overwritten properly or something. Anyway, am I the only one with this problem? I really want the new menu to stick. Thanks!

Other than this V16 is faster and smoother than all previous ROM's, thanks NFSFAN!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
If you follow the instructions and don't take shortcuts, you will not brick your phone.

Also, you can use several types of backup programs to backup all data you mentioned. I use Sprite and backup everything, so if the phone malfunctions, I can re-load everything. But after a flash, I only restore all email, favorites, phone logs, contacts, my documents and any other data related info. All programs have to be re-installed.

My method is I copied all my program cab files to my MicroSD card. Once I've flashed, restored data and set preferences, I re-install all my programs from those cab files. It takes me all of 30 to 40 minutes and my phone is exactly as it was, but with a new ROM.

Well worth it every time, as NFSFAN's ROMS just keep getting better. I don't know how he does it, because I am always extremely happy with the one I'm using, until I flash the new one.

I'm with Sprint and I install the new ROM, then run NFSFAN GPS Registry.cab and NFSFAN Sprint Provisioning.cab. That's all I need and I'm set.

Also did you soft reset after installing the files you mentioned?

Lastly, I find that my Tom Tom will not lock to gps after a new flash. So I go to Start / System Tools / GPS Viewer, set the com port to com4 and Open GPS. Once it starts up, I'm good to go forever until the next flash. I'm not sure why I have to do it, but it works.

I know I am a little late to the 6.5 game, but I just wanted to thank you, NFSFAN, for breathing new life into my Vogue.

Mainly just in File Explorer, but also in the messaging inbox, ect.

Are you saying you get the new menus all the time or you only get the standard 6.5 menus?

Only way to find out

flash back to v15 and double check...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] antinerd:
GPS seems slow...perhaps I should flash again...

Have any BellMobility users noticed that the GPS does not seen to lock as quickly on 16V? I'm running TomTom 7, and I've never had to prime the GPS before. Perhaps its just my phone (but I did flash Bell once, then NFSFAN's 3 times and let customizations run after every flash.... perhaps I should flash again?)

Other than a possible GPS error, this ROM is great. All my other apps open snappy, and I love the calender fix.

This ROM rocks!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] antinerd:
By bad!

I pulled the battery for a minute, powered on again, and the GPS is as quick as ever.

Excuse my flaky phone....

NFSFAN is the King of Vogues!

I'm on bell as well with v16 and I jsut checked the gps with tomtom 7 and it's working just as fine as always with no need for a prime.

Has anyone tired setting a new appointment and click on start date using V16? The reason I ask is because I see the over size calendar.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] 4thought:
I agree. With all due respect to NFSFAN, seems like the last few releases are upgrades for upgrades sake. I don't see any new functionality. And some problems persist like the wired headset issue. I'm sure its complicated as hell to produce these ROMs though.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] bobzero:
It shows the new proper sized calendar for me.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Schnitz:
What am I doing wrong?

I have loaded at least 5 of these previous ROMS (V8-V16) and I just can't get V15 or V16 to work.

My phone will shut down randomly and when I turn it back on the 'Tap the screen to set up Windows phone' screen comes up. I then have to re-setup the phone etc...

I load the ROM by connecting my phone via ActiveSync to my computer and I double click the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file in the new ROM folder. It loads the ROM with no issues but within 24 hours I have this problem.

The last 4 times I've loaded these 2 latest ROMs I haven't added any programs after just to make sure nothing I am adding is the culprit.

Can anyone help?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TH3ROOKIE:
I've notice 2 problems on V16;

1- Impossible to use the new "time picker" in Windows Live setting (Sync - Options - Sync schedule) because each time you click on "Set" after choosing the right time, you get kicked out back to the menu screen. **STEP BY STEP HOW TO REPRODUCE** --> Open Windows Live. Go to Sync. Click on "Menu" and "Options". Select "Sync schedule". In Sync frequency, select "Every xx minutes" in Times, select "During these times" in Start time: click on the down arrow. The time picker will open up (the new one). Change the time and click on "Set"...

2- Syncing my phone with my pc is becoming a nightmare... Can't get it to sync when the "Enable faster data sync..." is checked. I always get the message "USB device not recognize...") When it's not, it works, but sometimes it won't. **Fixed by doing a repair on the Windows Mobile Device Center installation. So, nothing to do with V16... my mistake!**

Cheers!

I get the new menus all the time. But that's not to say you may be doing something different than me.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
Here it is....
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
I just set a few mock appointments and the calendar shows normal when selecting start date.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
You obviously have not used the new ROM then. There are quite a few upgrades and enhancements since V13. It has faster, better menus, enhanced manila, better messaging, smoother scrolling, new dialer, overall speed and better battery life, to mention a few.

I don't know if the wired headset issue is a ROM or Windows issue. And I don't have the issue, so that tells me it may be a personal setting issue or an actual headset issue.

Ez Keyboard

Any chance of getting the mega ez input on the next rom or maybe a cab install for it?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
You need to flash back to stock and let all customizations run. Make sure you unlock your phone with the proper unlocker program. I use Vogue_unlocker_MFG_2.31.exe. Then flash the V16 ROM letting customizations run. I actually flash 3 complete times and honestly never have any problems. Run your proper carrier file if needed and you should be fine.

I know certain scenarios can cause havoc, because I have simulated almost every error that has been posted here. So I can say with certanty that almost all reported errors are user errors.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] neuteboomt:
Thanks. I will redownload V16 and then reflash.

2 - Under my USB to PC settings, I have "Active Synce (Sync with Outlook)" checked. I also have "Enable faster data synchronization" set. Active Sync and PC sync work fine.

I have had problems (using Vista), where I had to uninstall Windows Mobile Device Center and re-install it because of syncing problems.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] TH3ROOKIE:
1- Open Windows Live. Go to Sync. Click on "Menu" and "Options". Select "Sync schedule". In Sync frequency, select "Every xx minutes" in Times, select "During these times" in Start time: click on the down arrow. The time picker will open up (the new one). Change the time and click on "Set"... you'll know what I mean.

2- I didn't try to uninstall WMDC, I'll try that and let you know. I'm using Win7 - RTM. I didn't uninstall it, but did a repair on it. It works perfectly now! Thanks for the tip!

Alright so I'm running v16 and I notice that the numbers for the messages (Message) tab is not changing. I sent two messages from another phone and when I flip through, the number stays at 1/2. I tried to replace the HTCHomeSettings file but that screws up the Calendar and Time Picker. How would I fix this?

Don't know what to say. I even hard reset my phone three times and I didn't modify or restore any settings at all. Do you have any recommendation on how I can test this out further? I can reflash the ROM again if you want.

I just upgraded to 6.5 from an old NFSfan 6.1 ROM (pre-gsm dialer)...is it just me, or is video acceleration much better on these new roms?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] intimidatorx31:
I think i know wat CyCLoBoT is talkin about.

:)

I've encountered the same problem since v14.

When you swipe thru your txt msg from M2D.... the number doesnt change

UNLESS you press and hold on the message (wait for a flash in the background then swipe up or down). Once you do that lil press and hold trick itll refresh the messages.

This wasnt apparent until v14 which was when NFSFAN incorporated HTC Mega packages.

Just noticed that same behavior today, so I believe you. And yes, new in v14.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Similar issues have occurred for me through Vista to Win7 - fastest, easiest fix (and although you said the repiar worked for you - this is something for future issues that may again arise)

open device manager (right click on desktop icon of "my computer" and click on properties) then click on device manager

Scroll down to Network Adapters and open that set - you should see listed "Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter" right click on it and "update driver software..."

Seems to be a faster fix than downloading and reinstalling WMDC and going through all that - just updating the drivers for that item (even though they are the same version) kicks the interface in and keeps it

- sorry if I made the walk through simplified too much for you or others, but there are many users that will appreciate the detail too, no insinuation or insult to experience or intelligence intended -

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] CyCLoBoT:
Yeah I tried that and the number did change. But the thing is, when you replace the modified HTCHomeSettings file that was posted a while back, the number changes instantaneously. But as I said, that messes up the Time Picker and the Calendar.

Wired Headset Microphone

Okay NFSFAN, I don't mean to sound like I'm biting the hand that feeds me (cool updates). But can you speak to us about the wired mic situation? I feel that we haven't really heard anything from you about this bug, what's causing it and if you think it will ever be fixed.

Is this bug at all on your radar for a fix or are you ignoring it for more important and interesting features & fixes? I would in fact understand if you've decided that it's not an important fix. But I'd like to know if I should continue to eagerly await your updates or just be (mostly) satisfied with the work you did up to V11.

As a side note, I did donate at or around the time of V13.

Thanks for an awesome ROM (even way back at V11).

There isn't much to say really; it either works or doesn't. I've tested it and it worked fine for me. I used the jade dialer though for the vogue, not the mega or cdma one for this test.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] norrillous:
I didn't use www.sprint.com for the domain name, I was trying to figure out what the username and password was. I had tried the username and password that I use on www.sprint.com. as far as the domain name goes, I used sprintpcs.com just as you suggested.

On a side-note tho, I was talking with the sprint tech department and did findout the username, I originally thought was true and that was also suggested by intimidatorx31, was FirstnameLastname@sprintpcs.com but they would not give me the password. :mad: Oh well, I'll try and get it tomorrow and then give the v16 a try :D

I do ty for the help you did offer tempests, but it hasn't worked out for me thus far. I haven't given up on it tho. This has been my first time to flash a rom on anything. Did some hex editing on a verizon Razr and had some cool results from that. Any way. TY again.

Flash stops at bell screen

I have a Okta touch which is of corse a htc vouge just re-badged.

I've been using NFS roms for a while now.

i'm currently trying to flash v16 and it always stalls at the bell screen.

(I use _HTC Touch (Bell)_RUU_Vogue_BM_WWE_3.09.666.1_Radio3.42.50_Ship.exe as my stock rom)

I've been using wm6.5 since v11 and with no issues.

But no matter how i try, v16 will not load.

I've even tried downloading it twice too different parts of the hard drive. tried flashing from sd card, I've tried upgrading from stock and from v15 with no luck.

Does anyone have any other ideas i can try?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
I can also confirm that I have no mic problem. I've thought all along it may be a setting or the actual headset / ear plug model used. I'm using the CDMA dialer and the add on Volume control cab. Maybe we should find out what service each user is on, that is having a problem. I'm sure there is a logical explanation for what is happening to some.

My observation has been that some of us have problems, that we think may be bugs, while others do not see the problem at all. Logic will show that the problem is not a ROM bug but rather a bad flash, setting, add on, installed program, or the actual phone itself. I've always thought not all Vogues are created equal, when you add the carrier specific features into the mix.

For me your V16 installed 100% perfect on my Sprint Vogue. I have not found one problem even now that all my preference changes have been made and programs have been installed.

I feel dumb asking this question...............

I can't seem to get my headphones to work on my vogue. I've never tried them before, but I'm going on a trip this weekend.......

I bought a mini-usb to head phone adapter, but when I plug it in, nothing happens (sound still comes from the speaker on the back). I've also tried the standard phone headset that cam with the phone, but still no luck.

Is there a setting I need to change? Thanks.

Also, Tempest, do you have a Verizon GPS regisrty cab?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
I misunderstood your reply. However, my username is not the entire email address. It is only the first part. I would call Sprint and tell them you forgot your password and need a reset. My website login password is the same password. So use yoiurs if you know it.

Tell us exactly how you installed everything. I'm sure we can figure out why you have no internet. No internet / gps is generally caused by bad provisioning. You did make sure your Data Connection is turned on in Comm Manager?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
Hard Reset the phone first, let all customizations run completely. Then flash back to stock and try again. Connect the phone to your USB port and run the V16 RUU utility. Another user had a similar problem and it was a bad download.
