I can understand the frustration a new user may have, we've all been there. I was a member and did not post even once until I had been on the boards for 6 months. I'm not suggesting everyone do that, but if you read my post I did suggest at least reading on from the latest release date.

For example:

The thread currently says "Updated: June 28th*", so a new user should at least go back until he/she see's a post dated very early June 28th and start from there, or a few pages further. Once you have flashed make sure you "keep current" so if you get a bug you can say "oh yeah....guys were posting about that and the fix is......."

The user I was responding to asked about a change from V11, if he read the whole thread from V11's release he would have answered his own question. I know my wording was a bit harsh, my apologies. If you want your phone to run the best it can, you do have to invest a bit of time.

Suggestions were made to at least split 6.1 and 6.5 into 2 different threads. As DD said. NFSFAN didn't want to. His Thread, his ROM, if that's what he wants, that's what happens. We are very lucky to have such a talented developer making ROMS for our Vogue. He spends tonnes of time each release updating our phone and keeping it current. The least we can do is be knowledgable enough to report possible bugs properly.

Take care everyone,

I searched the last 5 pages of this thread and checked the FAQ but I didn't see anyone talking about this V12 issue: Call Volume.

Whenever I send/receive a call the phone starts at maximum volume, which is ****ING LOUD. I have to be really careful so I don't blast my ear out!

How can I fix this? I want the phone to start at minimum volume!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] grabaclue:
Really?? Huh. I had no idea. Why would the theme emulate WM 6.1?

Weird. I'll change the theme. Thanks for the info!!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fusion600:
Actually getting to any page is VERY simple. near the top of any thread where it lists the pages 1 2 3 4 5 > LAST there is an arrow just beside last. click that and type in the page you want to go to. DONE!

Also,bookmarking just the post is not very difficult and is a very convenient way to tell if there is an update. go to that post (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3526944&postcount=2378) first, only takes a second. If I see an update, I start downloading it then go to the last page of the thread and start reading backwards until I am caught up. by that time my download is complete.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Does when making a call and while your in call if you move the volume slider then it reduces the volume but after the call and in another call does it stay at the volume you just set or it goes back to full volume?

Havent had the issue you seem to be having as once its set in a call its stayed there

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] eiger06:
I'm having the same issue...except I can't adjust the volume at all - always starts at max and stays at max. I can adjust the system and ringer volumes, but the in-call volume stays put. If I try to adjust it during a call, the control pops up and moves, making you think it is adjusting, but the volume never changes. Thought I read somewhere it was due to the CDMA dialer.

NFSFAN - is there a kitchen for the Verizon 1.15 ROM? Your rom is perfect except I want to replace manilla with HTC Home 2.1, and I would rather have it not even install that plus some other minor things

Thanks

anyone else had their phone reset to the rainbow screen while plugged in, mine just reflashed it self from the MSD card while charging, my screen also likes to power off randomly while plugged in as i'm using it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
I do know you can't leave a boot loading program on the SD card because if he unit boots and it accesses the card it will execute. I left my TomTom loader on mine and everytime I lost power or rebooted, the darn TomTom software would try to install again. So I removed it and only put it on if I needed to reload the software.

So I suggest removing the rom bootloader or at least the batch file that auto executes it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] refthemc:
I liking the new rom but the only thing that i really dislike, and im not gonna lie, i actually hate is when i have 6.5 screen lock on and i get a call it almost wrestles with the gsm dialer caller id screen. Is there a regedit i can do that will disable the gsm caller id screen from overlaping the 6.5 caller id screen? thanks
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmitr:
What ROM version are you on?

I have to update the dialer FAQ but, here are the basics:

1. 6.1 ROMS These all have the gsm (slide to answer) dialer. They work except for the limitations set out in the FAQ. The Volume control is the HTC volume (big, finger friendly). There was a time waaaay back when there were call volume issues but the latest 6.1 ROMS work as advertised.

2. 6.5 ROMS V11 and down These have the CDMA dialer, no issues. The call volume is the standard windows volume control (stylus required). There were problems incorporating the gsm dialer and HTC volume from the 6.1 ROMS into 6.5.

3. 6.4V12 This ROM has the gsm dialer, actually the Tachi phone canvas so it is a later build than the 6.1 ROMS. HTC Volume is incorporated. I personaly have no issues with the in call volume. If I set it down it stays there for a new call. I just tested this. Did you follow the recommended flashing procedure? There are 2 issues witht the new dialer.

A. The many repeated call history graphical error. This is only with the built in call history. If you select "menu, call history" it is not there.

B. The dialer answers with the slide to answer screen if the phone is locked or not. The built in 6.5 s2a is therefor "overwritten". This is not an issue to me, I prefer the phone canvas s2a to the 6.5 one, especially since auto-lock was so glitchy. Personal preference.

NFSFAN's ROMs are locked and he does not supply a kitchen.

Thank you for reading first, hopefully this is a quirk with your flashing procedure. I just tested mine and it worked fine as per my first paragraph. Pain in the a** reflashing but hey, it's worth it in the end. BTW, did you have to say ****ING LOUD so ****ing loud?:D

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Antboy:
Did you switch to a custom theme and then revert back (and uninstall the theme)? This will sometimes cause the menus to go back to the 6.1 style, although there's a 'stock theme reinstall' cab somewhere that fixes the problem.

Big Problems

I'm having serious issues with NFSFAN's V12 ROM. I flashed it a couple days ago and everything seemed fine. But today, my contacts seem to all have been corrupted. My old text messages are showing numbers, instead of the names associated with them. And the contacts in my people tab in M2D have all disappeared. Even stranger, my signal bars show that circle indicator designating no connection. Yet, I'm still receiving sporadic text messages. Can't call into my voicemail though. Any idea what could be happening?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Snakehn:
I was wondering if it was something i did but yes i am experiencing the same issues with the txt and contacts, it only shows numbers instead.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] eiger06:
I'm using 6.5V12 with the 3.42.50 radio (i don't think the radio matters, but thought I would list it). I double checked today, and it turns out that the volume does adjust, however, it goes from very loud to loud...maybe it is just a lack of volume scale. Would this still be a ROM attribute or a possible registry edit fix? There is a volume control that pops up other than the standard windows control, so i'm not sure if maybe the control that pops up is not providing the full range adjustment.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] adrenaline0210:
urgent

Today my phone stopped making calls. Everytime I go to make a call it states it cant be connected as dialed. It will recieve calls just not make them. I went ahead and flashed from v10 - v12 and still can't make calls even after going through the program process as well as installing the vzw carrier cab.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] scouzer:
It reduces the volume in a call just fine, but when I take my next call it reverts back to maximum volume. It's really annoying.. guess it's a flashing quirk.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Snakehn:
Is there a fix for the text messages not showing the names from the contacts and only numbers???
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] adrenaline0210:
alright so after I downgraded to a verizon touch rom. that dropped my radio to the 3.37.?... went and called verizon and the problem was on their end the whole time. I just flashed v12 back on their but get no data or text of any kind. Starting to get beyond frustrating and pissed. Do I need to upgrade my radio again? and if so where can i find it. All i keep coming across are instructions on qpst fix for agps which doesnt give me instructions on updating the radio and its been almost a yr since.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
Did you flash to stock and then flash V12 3 times?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
No problem like that here either. Did you follow the proper procedure of flashing? Shortcuts = Problems and bugs.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
If everything is working, then you need to install your carrier specific files.

If you are haveing multiple problems, perform the following procedure:

1. Flash stock 6.1 Rom, letting customizations run radio

2. Flash stock Bell 6.1 Rom (don't let customizations run) radio 3.42.50

3. Flash custom .nbh to remove the blue Bell screen nbh file

4. Flash NFSFAN's Rom, letting customizations run

5. Flash NFSFAN's Rom, letting customizations run

6. Flash NFSFAN's Rom, letting customizations run

7. Run Carrier Specific Cab

8. Load contacts, backups and apps

8. Final Soft reset

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] adrenaline0210:
Tempests- thanks for the help. Any idea where I can find the bell stock rom with the 3.42.50 radio? Thats the one I originally had with all the roms.

That and I never did a custom.nbh - some info on where and how would be helpful.

Like I said its been a yr since doing the radio upgrading and with all the threads all of the place its pretty difficult to find the proper files. Thanks so much for your help.

But my internet will not work until I put in the username and password for Sprint. All Sprint accounts have a username and password. If you don't know yours, you can call them and get it.

this is my big problem right now: my phone is stuck on align screen and will not go past that no matter what, here is what i tried until now.

i was on V9 until yesterday

1. flashed v10 3 times, no go after that - still stuck on align screen

2. flashed stock 6.1 sprint ROM and then no go

3. flashed stock 6.1 ROM followed by v10 3 times - still stuck

4. tried deleting the welcome.exe, welcome.lnk while in activesync, will not let me delete to get past the align screen

5. tried overwriting the welcome.exe with a dummy file, will not allow me to do overwrite

only option is to take it back to sprint store. still under warranty. i am looking for 0.40 vogue relocker/unlocker so that i can relock the phone and am at work currently where i cant download any .exe files. Can anyone please upload a zip version of the file. link to file :

ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Vogue/Users/ImCoKeMaN/Vogue_unlocker.exe

or if you have any other solutions to offer, please kindly do so and i will try to implement them. i am guessing my phone's touch screen is probably a little off as some parts work, but some areas don't.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ETPhHm:
Hmm. Sounds a little dissing NF, and for sure you don't have a clue of my likes and dislikes. Frankly I am not alone with the huge number of people who can't stand WM 6.5. This is absolutely no reflection of your ROM, but rather the OS. My wife and I have been using one of DHARVEY's ROM's based on 6.1 since about the second week of our ownership of the Touch.

Many, many others have also been using your 6.1 ROM, and in our oppinion, 6.1 ROMs are far better than 6.5 or the stock ROM the came with the phones. In case you haven't noticed, there has been a collection of $$$ taken up

FOR YOU

to try and convince you to update your 6.1 ROM (because people refuse to cope with 6.5 crap, not refering to your ROM cooking talent, but the immature OS). And frankly, I don't see anyone taking up a collection for your 6.5 ROM.

I am happy for all those who think the trade-offs of 6.5 out-weigh its short comings. I love WM and the vast numbers of customizations/programs available for it, but I just don't care for 6.5. I am not sure if 6.5 has gone public yet, nor am I sure it will even be offered for the touch, but if it isn't public, it makes a lot of sense that perhaps all my (and many others) dislikes will probably disappear once the OS problems have been worked out in the final release version, eh?

These are the consequences of the bleeding edge, and those who like to tread upon it. It's a little unfair to those who don't want to put up with the quirks of 6.5 and throw out comments that remand us to apple products.

You tried to sum me up by suggesting I need something simple. I am fairly sure I was building computers and programming in DOS when you were still wetting diapers, so don't think so highly of yourself.

thanks snakehn, u are a life saver..

Microsoft released 6.5 in May; official updates should be pouring out in the next few months and the first phones designed for 6.5 should start coming out at the end of summer. It's public, it's live.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
You are probably one of those kind that wanted to stay with DOS forever. I started programming before there was even a PC or MS DOS, but what does that have to do with anything here. Of course there are those, you, that like to stay safe with the old version, instead of on the cutting edge. You don't really want to make any effort to learn new things. It's safer to stay with the old technology, instead of fighting the learning curve. If you are a programmer, why don't you cook your own ROM? I'm sure it will be better than everyone else's.

6.5 doesn't have quirks. It has new ways of doing things that you have to adjust to. So if you are not willing to do that, why bother yanking someone's chain, by complaining, name dropping and being insulting.

Create your own ROM!

And, if you like simplicity, why do you bother with enhanced ROMs for your phone? Why don't you just stick with the stock one?

One reason why there are so many things to choose from, in this world, is because we all have different likes and dislikes. You obviously don't like something about this ROM. So do yourself a favor and move to another one.

I for one, like evrything about it and am grateful that there is someone willing to create it.

Hi NFS, I couldn't solve the problems with QuickGPS and VOIP client on your 6.5 ROM yet, any suggestions ?

I'm curious. (maybe you're in the same boat as me)

Do you hate WM6.5 or do you hate the Titanium interface from WM6.5?

I don't mind WM6.5, but I don't like Titanium.

There is a difference. This may be redundant info for you and many others, but I think I'll add it for the few that may not know.

A lot of users have become accustomed to the TouchFlo3d (TF3d) interface.

This is not a feature of Windows Mobile. It is an interface made by HTC.

TF3D = HTC

SPB Mobile Shell = SPB

Wisbar Advance = Lakeridge Software

Home 2 = PointUI

(you get the idea)

Many companies make alternative Today screen interfaces to replace what Microsoft makes.

I've attached pics of Windows Mobile interfaces starting w/ WM5.

Keep in mind, the interface you see on 6.5 is the progression from WM5.

Totally different than HTC Touchflo stuff.

Anyways, I thought for clarification purposes it would be good to know whether you were talking about the OS or the interface on the new OS.

I personally like the 6.5 roms that have TF3d. I don't find the Titanium interface to be as useful.

Then again, some people use SPB or Wisbar, and I don't care for those either. (To each his own)
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] FastRX8:
Just a suggestion.

It's only Page 238 if you have the default post per page settings.

I'm not sure what the default is, I have mine set to 50 post per page.

Currently, this thread is up to 163 pages for me, and your 6.5 rom is on the 48th page.

It may be better to let people know it's on post #2378.

Fortunately, the link you have for PAGE 238 works, because it just points to a single post.

QuickGPS

With this file you dont get the certificate error. but you still can not get a succesful download. It downloads up to 80% but then it gives you a connection error, but is not a connetion error because it actually downloads the xtra.bin file into the temp folder. If you copy it to the windows folder it actually shows the date and time downloaded but is missing the days/time remainig. (I download it when is connected through activesync -- makesure you dont have a proxy connection enabled when doing this).

So QuickGPS might be trying to rename/check/move the file but the scrip is bad or something doesnt let it do it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmitr:
Well if that's true why are you posting here? Instead of insulting one of the best chefs out there make your own ROM, I'm sure it will be much,much better.

On another note, tempests said it better. Is it 6.5 you don't like or Titanium?

I personally think 6.5 is much better than 6.1, I just don't like titanium. NFSFAN has included M2D (TouchFlo) with his 6.5 ROMS so that's awesome for me.

If your like some, prefering the old 6.1 homescreen with multiple appointments and plugins that's fine as well. This Thread is for NFSFAN's ROMs. Posting here is meant for questions about his ROMs, bug reports, fixes etc. It is not meant as a severe critiquing thread for winmo 6.5. Hate 6.5??? make a new thread. Why stick it in here? NFSFAN takes offense to your disparaging remarks IN HIS THREAD and you insult him more? If a constructive talk on winmo interfaces is what your looking for, make a new thread.

Sprint PictureMail

Is anyone having problems with picturemail on WM6.5 v.12? Here is what I have done.

Flashed stock ROM

Flashed NFSFAN's c.12 ROM

Flashed NFSFAN's c.12 ROM

Flashed NFSFAN's c.12 ROM

Hard Reset

installed programs

soft reset.

All this was done with no SDcard. When I tried to install PPCGeeksSprintMMS.cab (Arcsoft Arcsoft MMS) My today screen and all other screens go whacky and start to blur when I scroll. I have it working fine now with all the same steps as above but scared to install the PPCGeeksSprintMMS.cab because I dont want to spend another 3 hours on my phone today.
