You can partially add this feature back through a registry edit. It will enable the add word feature, however you won't see it. When you type the word in ABC mode, it will automatically be added to the dictionary for future use.

The key that needs to be modified is: HKLM/Software/Tegic/eT9/Ime/"AddWordInWordList"

Set this value to 1, and soft reset.

Codybear, you can add this to the FAQ.

Titanium Plugin for Volume

Hi Codybear & DD,

I have found on xda a Titanium Plugin panel to set the volume. Works great but the only thing is when you change the volume for example from loud to vibrate, the icon on the top right doesn't change.

Here is the link : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=512529

It would be nice to fix the icon issue if possible and to add this into your faq.

Thanks in advance!!!

Somehow, after running a week with no real issues, my phone hard-reset upon soft-reset this morning.

Last night I added the Facebook panel, Facebook 0.16, and the newest FIM. I used them for a few hours, and also added app-to-date. It upgraded my g-alarm.

When the g-alarm installation was nearing completion, it pops up that window asking to install a codec and finish installation. Well for some reason that flashed away real quick and it went back to the 'successfully installed' WM page.

I opened up g-alarm and set my alarms. Turned on nitrogen to listen to music as I fall asleep (like every other night,) but when I woke up (somehow) to a 'ding' sound... that said g-alarm had failed to open. I quickly checked my phone for any texts or calls and then soft-reset... where it hard-reset instead.

Seriously, the only differences were:

1) App-to-date

2) Facebook 0.16

3) newest FIM

4) CFacebook panel

nothing else was changed from one day to the next. The only other item of significance is that when I was heading to bed, my RAM usage was pretty high--like 93%. I closed everything besides Nitrogen, which got it to 75% I believe. Phone was running fine.

I guess this morning could have been wose--I could have not woken up to that 'ding' sound...

I don't understand why I never once had this soft-->hard reset issue until WM6.5... blarg

Moving from MW 6.1 Telus to NFSFAN 6.5 Question

Just a few inquiries. I just found this site and upgraded my HTC Telus Vogue (Touch) to the Rom (RUU_Vogue_4350_TELUS_WWE_3[1].07.661.1_Radio_4350H_3.41.00_Ship_withPPSTPatch1.20.exe).

After reading alot and more downloads I have the GPS working with TOMTOM Navigator 6.

Will I have to reset everything that had to be done to get the about ROM and GPS working?

Thank and your work has made me keep this phone in enjoy it more.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmitr:
No,

Telus and Bell are fairly close to one another. The "stock ROM" that you just flashed updated your radio. The 3xxx radio is required for GPS. Custom ROMS do not update the radio.

What you must do first is unlock your phone, I recomend imecokemans unlocker, read the FAQ by Codybear how to do that. Follow the on screen instructions carefully and you should be O.K. Ditto once your done for installing the custom ROM (bootloader, hard rest etc).

if you have any questions after reading the FAQ just ask and we'll walk you through it.

For your original question, Telus does nothing to block GPS so your good to go, your settings will not change after reflashing to a custom ROM. Verizon users are the only unfortunates out there who have their carrier out to get them!!

P.S. If you have TT installed on your SD card, it will autoinstall when you put the card in your phone. IF you leave your SD card in while flashing a new ROM it can do this during the customization process and mess you up a bit.

1. Remove your sd card with TT installed

2. Unlock your phone as per the FAQ process

3. Flash NFSFAN's ROM as per the FAQ process. You can flash with USB mode from bootloader, some guys prefer to use the 512m card that came with the phone to flash (read the FAQ on this)

4. After you are fully completed the process of upgrading, put your SD card back in. TT will now auto-install.

Hope that's clear as mud!!

Will do when I get a chance, added to my faq to do list for today.

Will add to the faq later today,

but won't have a chance to work on the icon issue till next week or something.

hmmmm, weird, did you let your phone get down to critical power level?

I know that is a known issue for the past few versions,

but personally have not had this problem happen to me with v8 yet.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ljmeli:
ScrapMaker,

Mine did the same thing this morning (hard reset). Except I have added nothing in for the past 3 weeks. Funny thing is I locked mine before I rode into work, got it out of bag after I got to work and it wouldn't come out, so I soft reset. Went straight into hard reset.

My guess is that it was critically low, but I did not notice the battery level.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ScrapMaker:
nope.

Even if I did, the phone was on the charger ALL night--and was working fine, until the g-alarm tried to load... then I soft-reset...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ScrapMaker:
I've never had an issue with critical battery levels... if that's the case, that's a really big drawback to these ROMs.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] codybear:
I had it happen to me on v6 and once on v7,

but after I flashed to the stock rom,

and then back to nfsfan's v8, I haven't had the problem.

I would try reflashing stock rom, then flashing back to v8,

but when you flash to v8, flash atleast twice, I recommend three times,

it eliminates the rest of the problems that flashing to the stock rom does not.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ScrapMaker:
almost done with this process.

I am only installing the stuff I had BEFORE this meltdown. Hopefully this will tide me over for the next month or so until a new phone comes out. I can't be wasting all my time rebuilding my phone anymore.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] iaknown:
Hey guys, Ima try and explain this the best that I can, but anyone have any data connect issues when tethering because of the connection sorta shutting off or disabling? When my phone sits idle with no data transfer the little back and forth arrows on the antenna signal are greyed out (which I assume is normal?). But when I tether with my computer sometimes it will work fine but other times the same thing will happen, the arrows will grey out almost like it can't detect data transfer and the connection seems to disable. My computer will still show it as connected but nothing will download or connect. Anybody have a clue what I'm talking about lol or have this happen? I've never encountered this problem when tethering before and it makes it really unreliable (and annoying). Any help is appreciated.

You've got to flipping kidding me.. just got done fully-customizing my v8 again--and the internet does not work. The 'internet' option under phone is not there to re-provision.

Did you run DCD's cab? Once you run it, soft reset and then start a data connection. (Opening up a browser works too.) The phone will initalize IOTA. you'll be fine after that.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ScrapMaker:
I loaded that up, and it fixed it, but normally I've never had to run that cab on the 6.5 builds--ever. Eh oh well. I've only had to run the GPS cab.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] chunnell:
I was having problems with this Version regarding MMS, but was able to resolve it using the old instructions instead of the new one which do not fix it. FYI. Anyway, I do have question about PAN. It had been working on previous Versions, but is not now. Nor can I use the phone as an access point, which operates the same. In the past, I could turn on the Bluetooth and Connect via Bluetooth PAN and then Join a PAN on Vista (really Windows 7) and it would work fine. It operates as a great backup for my network at about 70-100 kps, should it go down. But now PAN just doesn't work, when I connect on the phone and then click Join a PAN on my PC, Bluetooth doesn't recognize the current connection and even if I try to pair it again, it will not see the PAN. Any ideas? However, I can sync with Outlook via Bluetooth just fine.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] rgfraser:
Which ROM should I use?

Thanks for the info, but which ROM should I flash?

NFSFAN's 1.08 Telus ROM.rar or NFSFAN's WM6[1].5 V8 ROM.rar?

Then I run this cab ? NFSFAN Telus GPS Registry.cab

Thanks for clearing up this old rookie.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jmitr:
NFSFAN has 2 ROM versions running around. WinMo 6.1 or WinMo 6.5

1. Telus 1.08

This is the winmo 6.1 version. It is very stable (30+ versions of the 6.1, this is the latest). The user interface is touchFlo, or more commonly refered to as M2D, Manila 2D. The 6.1 ROMS also use a different dialer. If you are used to wm6 / 6.1 and want a super stable, super fast ROM that WILL work great for everyday 24/7 use choose this one. As it is a dedicated Telus version you do not need the GPS registry cab. Read Page 1 for what is included in the Rom and for the latest change log. NFSFAN has mentioned he will update the 6.1ROMs due to a newer version of M2D being available. This is however the latest version of 6.1 released, and is probably one of the "Final" 6.1 ROMs to be seen.

2. NFSFAN 6.5V8

This is the winmo 6.5 ROM. If you've read alot you probably have figured out winmo 6.5 has not yet been officially released. This is a beta version. As with all beta versions of something it is bound to have some bugs. Some programs made for winmo 5/6 will not work with 6.5. Think windows 3.1 vrs windows 95. Not quite as drastic but alot of changes. The very cool dialer included with the 6.1 ROMs was not fully functional with 6.5. The dialer is the same as the stock one you have now. WindowsMobile 6.5 also includes a new user interface (UI) called titanium. It's kinda neat and getting better every day but NFSFAN has included M2D as well. You can switch back to it if you don't like titanium. One last thing, this Rom is generic, or non-carrier specific. After flashing to this one you need to install the telus gps reg.

So, in summary:

Want a speedy, stable ROM that will work with all your old software? not to mention a cool new dialer? Use the Telus 1.08

Want the latest toy, and be cutting edge, and be willing to upgrade 1-2 times a month as it is updated and renewed?? Then flash the 6.5V8 ROM.

Hope this helped,

Jason

Try to use my camera for video and I get this: "unable to start recording video. unable to create video file"

Doesn't matter where I point the storage either.

This was brought up several pages ago, but I have seen no fix.

Anyone?
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ski21:
I'm still waiting for my sprint touch to arrive. I think I'll start by flashing the 6.1 rom first and play with it for about a week or so. I'll try to post a video of it running. Then I'll try the 6.5 and compare them. I'll try to post a video of both. I'm not sure what radio version my phone will have, I'm guessing its the sprint .30 version, it's a refurbished phone so not sure, if it has the .30 would you all recommend staying with that or upgrading the radio to bell .50

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] atoz350:
Okay, just some small quirks with v8....

Internet sharing:

I cannot get internet sharing to work properly in v8. I have figured out how to enable a data connection through BT while im in Activesync, and can get the phone to share its internet connection that way (both through BT and USB), however I cannot get it to work the other way! I can't get the phone to utilize my computer's internet connection for faster data. This worked in all previous versions except for this one.

iContact:

I've tried installing iContact as I like the interface. It is fast and simple, and looks better than the standard contacts app. However, I cannot get iContact to be the default contacts app. It worked fine in all versions except for this one. When you set it to be default and soft reset, it still uses the standard contacts app.

Backlight timer:

It defaults to 10 seconds no matter what you set it to. (even in the registry)

Before anyone tries to advise me on troubleshooting techniques or how to properly flash a ROM, I must say that I am one of the more experienced users. This post is directed more towards NFSFAN in order for him to try and duplicate the issues to better the ROM in preparation for v9. I enjoy the speed of v8, epecially the improvements in the messaging area.

NFSFAN, I appreciate your work! Let me know if you need anything.

Bluetooth problem

Hi everyone!

Everything is going smoothly but one thing: I can't use my bluetooth earphone (Jabra BT500) to activate or use voice command.

The earphone is well connected when I check in the BT configuration, I can talk on the phone with it, I can pick up the incoming calls using it's button.

On the stock 6.1 ROM, if I held the Jabra's button for 2 seconds, I could use vocal dialing. Now, holding the button or pressing it doesn't do anything on the phone to make a call.

Also, When I hold down the phone's camera button to activate Voice command, it doesn't let me use the earphone, the instuctions are spoken in the phone's receiver and waits for commands to be spoken directly in the phone's microphone.

There must be a fix for this! Any idea?

Thanks in advance!

I read the problem with the SMS app lagging has been improved in v8, is that correct?

- Thanks in advance.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drewden123:
No, unfortunately it isn't. It starts out fine after a fresh flash, but the person whom you text most frequently is what cause the issue. From my experience it seems that the more texts you have in one threaded conversation, when you try to do anything to navigate away from that convo (except END key) the device locks up. And the more messages, the longer the freeze up. It's very frustrating to have to always worry about deleting the messages so it doesn't freeze. Also, it's very annoying when I receive a text from another person and instead of simply clicking "OK" in the top right, I have to hit the end key and then use the task manager drop down to force close the SMS app, then reopen to read the other text. Maybe the issue is with threading...idk but I hope it's resolved soon.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ScrapMaker:
Check the FAQ, sheesh.

you're making it too easy for 'em! ;)

Slightly... it's still god-awful compared to 6.1 -- and it has a real bad problem with texts showing up as unread within a current thread. You have to sometimes scroll to each new message and highlight it. Sometime you just go back to the overall message list and it will be seen as read... I've had a few that I had to delete to make them read.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] yandi3401:
Yeah, thats the same problem I have. Something that helps a little bit, is to use the Manilla2D, when you receive a msg, go to the sms tab, and click on the msg. You will be taken to the conversation with that person, after you are done, click ok, and you'll be taken to the homescreen again, without having to actually get into the full sms app.

However, if u get into the full sms app (and you have a lot of msgs), the problem stills there... :rolleyes:

- Hopefully, the official release of WM 6.5 will be out soon (expected to be May 11), and we wont have this problem anymore. :D
