if both those links do not work for the V7 ROM (which helps if you just say it rather than link it) then its your browser settings

I posted and tested the filefactory link myself and everyone but 1 other person has had no issues with the mediafire link

What browser are you using?

Are you using any web/AV protection?

Any popup blocker running?

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] codybear:
did ya search yet? :D

just wondering because there is a mirror within the last two pages from detroit doug.

hmmmm, those start menu/taskbars are still in beta.

meaning it can cause unwanted things.

especially if you installed the 6.1 version,

then it will screw everything up and if you did that, reflash,

when I had tried the 6.1 versions I did a hard reset

and it didn't do a fix all of the problems it caused.

And correct me if I'm wrong, isn't activesync for non vista computers,

and windows device center is a replacement for activesync for vista.

therefore activesync would not open.

My friend runs vista and does not have activesync, only device center.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Not so much a correction rather an enlightenment

Vista/Windows7 PCs utilize WMDC (Windows Media Device Center) it still utilizes activesync on the backend, its just renamed to accomodate ALL media devices and Phones (Mobile Phones, Zune, Table PC, ETC)

Its an updated version than what WinXP and lower would use as those systems will still utilize older versions of Activesync (4.X and below) that was just obtained at the time by Microsoft

Many users still refer to Activesync as it is usually easier to write than the whole spelling of the acronym WMDC and it is still whats on the phone after all

Hi all,

I flashed to NFSFAN's 6.5 V7 yesterday and everything is working pretty well. The phone screen is popping up for no reason quite frequently. I'm about to reflash to see if it helps (yes I did a hard reset before and after I flashed.)

Before I do that though, I'd like to program a soft key (?) to lock the screen from the M2D home page (similar to the start menu). Does anyone know (silly question) what application smartlock calls? I've searched the windows directory as well as the thread but no luck.

BTW, I just spent the week in PA (State College) and never could get a lock on GPS. However, when I got back to the Pac NW, I locked relatively quickly! Gotta love Verizon!

Thanks in advance,

^Anybody running Vista with the MMS fix with internet sharing working??

Cuz several of us are having problems.....Or any ideas about a HTC modem driver that will work with the new ROM and Vista??
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Sophos1:
There is a reg edit for the phone popping up.

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock = 2

I had a similar problem trying to lock my device from M2D home screen. I came up with a work around.....I installed a program called DeviceLock and then linked a soft key to the .exe with M2DC. I know its not the cleanest and one of these experts could probably tell you the better way to do it....but hey it works!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] codybear:
Added that registry hack cab to the faq. ;)

And I was trying to search for a better way to do the lock,

and as of right now I have no clue.

:/

Maybe an expert knows?

I'm still a noob in alot of areas. :eek:

I've learned alot more in the past week or two

since I've started doing the faq. :cool:

I encourage anyone to just jump right in,

I was sitting back being hesitant trying to read everything that I could,

and I'm having more fun now customizing everything

myself instead of using everyone else's cabs/files.

Stuck on Verizon Screen after loading NFSFANS 6.5 ROM

Need Help with PHONE... Hey I was trying to get WM 6.5 on my phone and its now stuck at the verizon screen and won't go any further. I used the cokeman 2.31 unlocker and rebooted. This loaded just fine and everything worked. I then ran NFSFANS 6.5 ROM which it said it was successful and rebooted, but would never boot fully. It will show the verizon screen and the numbers at the bottom. The numbers go away and then it just says Verizon without going any further.

Ive updated two other phones in the same manner without any issues.

Any ideas on how to get this going again since I can't boot it to connect to ActiveSync?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
firstly how long did you wait for it to boot? first boot can take quite a while (longer than most)and seem like its stuck on the carrier screen but eventually it will move on to the orange screen and want you to "tap screen to setup"

Have you tried to hard reset (red button+green button+stylus in reset hole) and have it re-flash from the phone itself? sometimes that will kick it through as well

No worries about the wont hit via activesync , should be flashing via bootloader mode anyway (power+camera+stylus in reset hole) once you hit the 3 color screen and it says SERIAL - connect to the usb cable to your PC and it will switch to USB then run the RUU.exe (RomUpdateUtility.exe) and go from there

I'm having a problem when i set up active sync to my work exchange server. they require that i have 4 digit pin to unlock the phone. when the phone starts it looks like it is trying to go to the keypad to unlock but only the top bar shows up, the rest of the screen is blank. the only extra thing i install was the touch pal keyboard.

thanks for the help and ROM

EDIT: I just did a hard reset and added a simple pin with out setting up active sync and have the same issue.

EDIT2: only seams to happen after i run the Verizon dcd cab.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] theoneownz:
I have verizon also and just recently re-flash the entire phone

Flashed 2.31 coke

Flash Bell rom w/radio 3.25.50 did not alow Cust..

Follow with a flash of NFSFAN 6.5

I didnt have one problem on the way and it only took about 15-20

Whole moral of the story is i do not even get verizon Boot screen anymore I get an HTC logo :) Much better in my opinion
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] suntopper:
Thanks Sophos1, I'll try the reg edit today!

Cody,

Is the process the same for installing the verizon mms fix from your faq as NFSFAN describes in the 6.5 post? If so, t's not the same provxml file. Maybe you could add the process to the faq? Just a thought. (great concept btw)

Thanks all,

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] mnherky:
switching to classic display seams to have fixed the problem.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmitr:
Unfortunately not yet,

Try to remember 6.5 is still Beta, and hasn't been officially released on any stock phones yet.

When the first 6.5 builds showed up NFSFAN stated we'll have to give up M2D. Eventually he got that working, other things will come along as well.

Another user said it best........ "I can't wait to see what HTC does with 6.5" This is more true than alot of people realize. There are alot of great HTC apps that don't quite jibe, or work with 6.5. HTC audio manager (kinks), HTC volume (doesn't work) etc.

When 6.5 becomes official and HTC releases a qvga phone with M2D and 6.5 blended........then the cooks will really start cooking!!! The good news, our phones will only get better.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] vblbros:

and choose to install to phone if asked.

And there you go,

all done. ;)

I'll add the word cab to the download link text,

that way everyone know's it's a cab. ;)

Try not setting up the PIN. Many people have reported problems using a PIN with the new lock screen.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] j18yo:
I understand what your saying, like I said I'm completely new to this whole thing this is my first phone with any capabilities like this. I'm not saying I'm overly fond of the original today screen, I did like it, but I much prefer the 6.1 today screen.. I think its perfect, scrolls left/right and has everything I need right there.. I never open up the start bar or anything. I just wish all the 6.5 extras came with the 6.1 today screen, thats really all I've become attached too.

I'm assuming there's no possibility of this which is fine I don't have a problem using 6.1, being new I don't use EVERYTHING yet so the only thing I'm missing from 6.5 is any changes that might make it more stable or faster I'm assuming? All I feel I've needed is here on the 6.1, at least until I find out more things I can do and desperately want to try haha

I respect what any of you who put these together are doing.. it's way over my head from first look, and I'm sure you all put a lot of time in doing what you do so all of us can enjoy it too, so I'm not downplaying your work at all, I'm probably just ignorant to what's to offer with 6.5 and based on the posts the best has yet to come, so maybe I'll be switching sooner than I think.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] codybear:
Haha, I'm still a noob too.

Don't worry. ;)

I just chose to jump right in and I'm learning tons of new stuff everyday.

Anyways, you can actually go to start > settings > today >

and uncheck "widows default" and then check whatever you want,

like what plugins you want like you could do in 6.1.

And then press ok,

and there you go,

just like 6.1,

just with a different start menu.

But I am not sure what today plugins are 6.5 compatible though.

From what I've messed around with,

alot of the programs that I use are having no problem interacting with 6.1,

so I'd assume a good majority of the good 6.1 plugins are 6.5 compatible.

But I cannot confirm this as I only use the 6.5 today plugin.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] codybear:
I would honestly wait till they fix this problem:

"As Paul_Days says, there seems to be an issue with the space bar. I´ve noticed that if the word I´m typing is underlined, the spacebar won´t work until I "un-underline" it. Eg: if you press the "right" key in the hardware button the underlining disappears and the space bar works perfectly.

Anyway, if you go to "Settings" and check all the options (Spell correction, Word completion in T9 mode, Word Completion in ABC mode and Auto-Substitution) everything seems to work ok. ¿Can anyone confirm if anything similar also happens in the VGA version?"

But i'll upload and put on my faq for those who would like to use it.

@everyone, what do you think about me creating a rar with ALL

the pictures used in the windows mobile 6.5 lockscreen,

that way you can download it, create your own,

and then save as the same name of the picture you want it to replace,

and then copy to your windows folder so it will be your custom picture?

Also, I'd create a cab installer that would install the original files again. ;)

@everyone,

I have found a copy of the smartlock program,

as I remember Nfsfan said he would remove it from his new version,

no one has reported problems with it,

but I will test it after v8 comes out,

and if it works I will post it for the people that would like it.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] htctoucher:
thats caused by the "smart"lock app that was included

i found on boot up you just have to wait for a lil while.. sometimes a long while, before the lock screen actually comes up.. but it will

i was too hasty before and almost did a hard reset, but then figured Id wait a lil longer, and after tapping the screen a bunch and pressing the standby button a couple times it came up after a while :D

Has anyone been able to get Pandora and or G-alarm to work with 6.5V7? I have flashed to V5 and v7 and haven't been able to get either program to work and that's kind of a deal breaker for me. I keep going back 6.1 1.12 sprint because i know the programs work. If someone could help getting either of these programs to work with 6.5 or a program similar it would be greatly appreciated.

Can Confirm Galarm works!!!!

Pandora is not working.

It just keeps saying connecting when you try to connect to a station.

And i was going to try and see if they came out with an updated version,

as I have the first installer created for windows mobile pandora,

and it came out quite a while ago.

But when I try to go to mobile.pandora.com

www.pandora.com

www.pandora.com/on-the-go

www.pandora.com/on-windowsmobile

(yes last two websites are actual pandora sites)

It just crashes whichever internet browser I use.

So untill pandora becomes better,

f*ck them.

Personally I think lastfm is better,

they have a wider selection of music.

I can't find half of the music I listen to on pandora,

but can find it on lastfm.

@cdmoore, that lock really is quite strange.

I have had no problems with it. haha :D

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] codybear:
I just looked into those,

there's a registry edit file,

but when I open it up,

it just has the beggining string "regedit4"

and nothing more.

then there's a registry edit that is installed at:

HKCU\Software\HTC\Customize\

String name "Ver" Value "1.0"

there's 3 other things in the cabs:

Checkfile.exe, cesetup.dll, and customize.lst,

which when I use reshacker and look inside checkfile and cesetup, this is what I find in both:

1 VERSIONINFO

FILEVERSION 1,0,4,0

PRODUCTVERSION 1,0,4,0

FILEOS 0x40004

FILETYPE 0x1

{

BLOCK "StringFileInfo"

{

BLOCK "040904b0"

{

VALUE "Comments", ""

VALUE "CompanyName", "HTC"

VALUE "FileDescription", "CheckFile"

VALUE "FileVersion", "1, 0, 4, 0"

VALUE "InternalName", "CheckFile"

VALUE "LegalCopyright", "Copyright c 2003"

VALUE "LegalTrademarks", ""

VALUE "OriginalFilename", "CheckFile.exe"

VALUE "PrivateBuild", ""

VALUE "ProductName", "HTC CheckFile"

VALUE "ProductVersion", "1, 0, 4, 0"

VALUE "SpecialBuild", ""

}

}

BLOCK "VarFileInfo"

{

VALUE "Translation", 0x0409 0x04B0

}

}

Then the customize.lst would not open with reshacker,

and when I opened with notepad,

it's blank.

So I'm not sure if that's just a blank file,

otherwise I don't know how to open one of those files.

But all three of those cabs look to be the same exact thing.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
I read there is a fix to Pandora, but it takes some work to make happen

First - flash to 6.1 ROM

Second - install Pandora and not the files added/changed

Third - copy those files in the locations to another area

Forth - Flash to a 6.5 ROM

Fifth - copy the Pandora added/changed files back to the needed locations overwriting where needed

Sixth - cross fingers

I found that somewhere but only had the writers say so it was working using that method, cant verify or be sure of it and I cant currently test it as I am here in Atlanta for the week and dont have access to my PC (at least not a decent on via the net)
