Don't worry about it. I just went to the T-Mobile website and since I have been with them for so long they offered me an $89 family plan that is unlimited EVERYTHING, so I just added the full $20 data and it all works great now! :)
[HTC Excalibur] Beasting:
How many lines do you have on your account?
[HTC Excalibur] aussiedog:
Based on the pricing and that he stated that he has been with them for a while, I'd have to say 2 lines. 49.99 unlimited calling (I can't remember about the texting part) plus 39.99 for each additional line. It's T-Mo's Customer Loyalty plan. If you are a post paid customer that has been with them for a while and are in good standing (ie not too many late payments, etc.) you will qualify. Call them or go into any store and it will pop up on CAM if you're eligible.

Additionally, I hate to sound like I'm hawking T-Mo, but the 'new' rate plans changed on April 15th and all for the better. They added up to 500 minutes on some of their plans (at the same price) and/or free mobile to mobile. Check the website (or call, go in a store, blah, blah, blah) and see if it's worth it to you. Chances are that it will extend your contract another year on most plans, but if you plan on staying with them it's definitely worth it. :)
[HTC Excalibur] sgalbincea:
2 lines, one for me and one for my wife. Was paying $150 for 2000 minutes, now $90 + tax for all you can talk. :)

Also, they didn't even make me extend my contract - too cool.
[HTC Excalibur] Beasting:
Wow thats really nice

i have 4 lines i dont save at all
[HTC Excalibur] sgalbincea:
You would, it's $89.00 for the FAMILY plan, not 50+40. Anyways, this is WAY OT, PM if you want more info.
[HTC Excalibur] aussiedog:
Don't know who you talked to, but it is $50+$40 for each additional line for Customer Loyalty plan, at least that what it keeps telling me when I am upgrading peoples contracts every day. :) If you know something different please pm me your rate code and I'll punch it in CAM tomorrow to verify and issue a public formal apology. They are still 'loosely' calling it a 'Family' plan when there is more than one line in order to avoid confusion with customers, it markets (sells) better, for sharing messaging bundles, and to obviously have only one bill, but since it's 'unlimited' it's really all the same (ie you're

not

pooling minutes). Additionally, some customers were complaining that they were losing their MyFavs. They didn't get that it doesn't matter with an unlimited plan. This might explain some too!

And yes, this is waaaay off topic, but I rather not have people thinking that they can get 4 unlimited lines for $89. No offense and take care.

P.S. My sincere apologies to Ricky and Stylez for jacking the thread. On topic, I have been using this ROM for a couple of months now with no glitches. Every day the phone brings a smile to my face. Great work guys!
[HTC Excalibur] rilbel:
I'd like to know how you guys made it so that when I type a new text, to select the recipients I just have to type the name of who I want to sent it to ie: st and a list of people beginning with st will appear, instead of having to center click and choose form the list.

Thank you. :)
[HTC Excalibur] iamyud:
help

Sorry guys if this has been covered but I've gone through 40+ pages and still haven't found anything out.

A) I get a weird symbol when I press alt for the "@" sign. I saw someone say to go to accessories>excalibur eT9 changer. It shows uk, usa, spanish etc. I can't select the other ones. It has UK selected but when i scroll down, the bullet doesnt move. Any reason as to why?

B) I can't edit profiles. I want to rename "Normal," "Silent," and "Vibrate" and change their volumes and what not but it doesn't do anything when I try to edit.

Thanks guys, any feedbacks appreciated.
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
Don't know about B... but for A, hit right or left to move up or down.
[HTC Excalibur] iamyud:
oh...wow. I feel like an idiot. Thanks uansari1. The profiles work now too haha. Kick ass rom!
[HTC Excalibur] sgalbincea:
Doh! Just dug in a little deeper and you are correct sir - $89.98 for the first two lines, $39.99 for each additional unlimited line.

Still, a heck of a deal if you ask me! Sorry for the confusion.
[HTC Excalibur] bigboibbp:
i love it! however, i cant stand the xt9 text input, how do i get rid of it? its driving me crazy!
[HTC Excalibur] s1l3nt:
are u talking about predictive text? hold alt and spacebar in a message and choose abc
[HTC Excalibur] bigboibbp:
THANKS!!!! i knew it was simple, thanks again
[HTC Excalibur] blooder:
I have the same problem. But when I click show for CMessage in the CHOMECONFIGURATOR is shows Message Center as a separate panel. But I would like just have new SMS/MMS on CHOME.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
The continuation of this ROM is posted in the main thread,by me :) Check it out. We'll have to get all the goodies ricky and stylez added to this one, into that one as well :)
[HTC Excalibur] LeoArg:
Please!!

How install this files?

I cannot yet.

Thank you
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
Hopefully not ALL of them... ;) Then again, I suppose I can just scrub them out of your version...
[HTC Excalibur] stars.galore:
Just downloaded it

Well, i just downloaded this new rom, im excited to see what this baby can do! So far it is aesthetically pleasing, i like it. will post back later.:)
[HTC Excalibur] stars.galore:
Yes, another noob here

Ok, well i just flashed my phone to another rom, remake of ricky and stylez actually, the only issue that im having is.... where the crap do i find the .cpr and .dll files, everytime im in the windows folder, if i stop scrolling down, the phone will automatically take me back to the top, and no im not touching the joggr. Im new to all of this flashing etc, and i've been trying for the last 3 hours and how to re-do the font, i've downloaded some fonts from a different thread that i hope to get on the phone, but im completely lost. I'll come back right after work in hopes of finding some help! Thanks you guys!

P.S. my phone is so slowwwww now, any ideas why?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Look in Resco Settings something like auto refresh? untick

Plenty of info on fonts and how to modify .cpr and .dll's
[HTC Excalibur] Zypperneck:
What is the best Rom?

Sorry in advance...newbie to this whole thing. But, I have a T-mobile Dash-Black. I see all these Rom Versions out there, what is the best one for my phone? I installed the Vanilla and it seems pretty good, is there a better one. I am have the Alt key mapping issue and my voice command seems to stop working when ever I disconnect my bluetooth headset? Have these issues been addressed in other Roms.

Once again, please be gentle, I'm ignorant! I have tried searching the threads for these issues, and noticed others having them, but I have not seen any fixes?

Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
Have you searched for "best rom"? I suspect no, otherwise you'd know the standard answer to that question. I will say this, however... I've used Kavana, Ricky's v24 remake of Kavana, NRG's Rose 1.4, this remake by Ricky and Stylez (v1.7a), and NRG's latest Snap based ROM. All of them are good, but my personal favorites were the latter two. However, I also tend to decompile and scrub ROMs before flashing to my phone now to get rid of unwanted stuff. My advice is to try a few of them and see which you like the best. I think the most recent two will be the most up-to-date and stable of the lot.
[HTC Excalibur] l0lcats:
Strange...
[HTC Excalibur] MrShides:
Hi,

I'm new to rom flashing so any suggestions are apprecieated. I already tried google, the search feature just for this thread, just for the excalibur forums, and for the entire site.

I am using this rom right, without any other app's added. I'm having a problem with Opera Mini. When I try to log into a website, I cannot populate the password field. I can click it, type into it, but when I say i'm done, the field is then blank. Other fields on websites work fine.

Any suggestions?

Thank you for this great rom.
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
Um, yeah... that's not actually related to this ROM. You just don't know how to use Opera Mini properly. Once you've typed your password into the field, hit the center of your directional button (or "Ok"), then click done.
[HTC Excalibur] MrShides:
Being new to this scene, I figured it was rom related since it wasn't happening with my stock rom, and the fact that opera is included in the rom itself. I'm guessing I had an older Opera on there, or possibly just had my password saved and forgot how to put the pass in properly.

Regardless, you solved my problem and thank you.
[HTC Excalibur] uansari1:
No problem... we all learn from each other, through trial and error, or accidentally stumbling on the answer (which happens fairly often I think)...
[HTC Excalibur] agency391:
first off...

first off i would like to thank xda for all the help on my devices. i have had every device from the wing, blackjack, shadow2, pantech duo, but i have to say i love my dash because of this site and this rom. no disrespect to other makers of roms because they have all been great and im have tried to make one(bricked my dash many times) so i leave that to the big boys so i would just like to say thanks.. with that said i have i small something to ask about. when i go into my photos on a stock (and some cooked) roms i can go to my videos and see the thumbnails, but i have not been able to on this rom. i have done my searching before asking this question and if it has been ask can you just point me in that direction. well thanks in advance and once again thanks for all your hard work it is truly apperciated...al94r
[HTC Excalibur] SRgustavo:
hi guys, im using this rom but for mistake i deleted the slim panels, and i liked lcd kavana's slim panel, is there a way that i can get it back??? or do i have to reflash???

i think it is a .cpr or.ddl, so if anybody got the file please let me know

thanx
[HTC Excalibur] SirJangly:
Hey guys, great rom. I have a problem though. When I try to use a question mark, I get some weird f looking symbol, and when I try to use an !, I get an =. How can I fix this? Thanks in advance!
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Search TegiceT9 it's the regional keymapping. Weird £ its a uk pound sign :D "i think that's what u on about?"

Was thinking u need US keymap now i'm wondering? and just wondering more...
[HTC Excalibur] SirJangly:
Thanks I got it now :)

I have another problem though. My battery status is always at 100%! How can I fix this?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Hard-Reset as never been mentioned before... If still an issue after Hard-Reset Re-Flash.
[HTC Excalibur] jarroyo:
Photos

I have noticed in this and several of the other ROMS that when bringing up photos, it defaults to the device. I don't think I would be too unique in that I always save my photos to my storage card to save device memory. Is there a way to change the default on the picture program (the new one or the old) to look to a default directory on the storage card?
[HTC Excalibur] thisone:
Rom is excellent!!!! Wow i was using kavan's rom before this on my old dash (currently has kavana's installed)

One question, how do i access my radio? And does it need an internet plan?

or is it like, the Phone Radio, As in, talking.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Thankyou for kind words & yes it's the phone radio as the dash does not have fm capability.
[HTC Excalibur] netmatt:
Stuck here...help?

"execute SPL now - allow to run JumpSPL and after this step, press center button (Continue) on your Excalibur and screen should turn nearly white"

Press any key to continue . . .

Did the allow Certificate and the Unlocker...but after running the jumpspl, I get the Jump Address 0x0000 thing and then have no idea how to get past that. I never get the "phone goes nearly white" thing...???"
[HTC Excalibur] thisone:
You are Very welcome. I LOVE This Rom :)
[HTC Excalibur] Enlefo:
My dash suddenly went hay wire on me and I figured my dash had finally died on me. Decided to try a reflash and go with this ROM from the old kavana version I was using. Seems to have fixed things. This rom seems significantly faster to me, kudos to everyone involved! I can hardly believe how much faster my phone has come from winmo 5 > 6 > 6.1 > kavana > this.

I am rather annoyed at some of the messaging features though. With kavana you have missed calls, vm, sms, mms, and email all displayable in one line. You also get a message preview even when that line is not highlighted. With rose vm and missed calls have there own display line, as do sms and mms and then a third for email. Also none of these lines show a message preview unless you scroll to that line. I can no longer see all my messaging info without having to scroll down. This is a big step backwards for me and if I cannot change this I'll have to go back to kavana or try something else. I have looked around and cannot find any way to configure it so I can get all my info on one or even two lines. No option for preview either. Is there a way to change this?

Also curious if there is a way to change the text message alert noise to something other then the prepackaged sounds. This is non rose specific. every version of winmo 6 and 6.1 I have used cannot change them to anything other then the default noises even though the sounds are in a wav format. The winmo 5 I had on my dash could to this no problem, even used mp3's. I have even tried replacing default sounds with my own wav file under the same name, bit quality, etc with no luck. Not related to my first question but I figure I'll throw it out there and make my post GIGANTIC. :o
[HTC Excalibur] thousandlegs:
Go to start/settings/home screen and change it to sliding panel media (or media topbar) and then make any necessary changes in CHome config to add or remove panels.
[HTC Excalibur] Enlefo:
Awesome! Thanx.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Stick your .wav on root of storage card :)
[HTC Excalibur] netmatt:
The reason I am trying this is because I have that "keeps searching" problem mentioned on the board here a couple of times. Had the Dash for almost 2 years now and its been good, but the other day it started to freeze. I worked for days to get it working, but then had to do a hard reset. Since then it does not connect, except for Edge (Wifi works as well)...it just keeps searching.

I tried my SIM in my wifes Sony phone and it works. Makes me think something happened in the phone itself? Any thoughts or idea, or any help with where I am stuck above would be appreciated!!! :)
[HTC Excalibur] netmatt:
OK, I let that screen just sit there (the 0x0000 one) and ran the other stuff and the screen finally went blank/white. Unfortunately, now the RUU gets an error [260]: Connection and says my smartphone is not connected...sigh?

EDIT: Re-ran the RUU and it found it...updating now, fingers crossed

UPDATE: Argh...finally got it loaded, but still same searching problem. I guess I am off to T-Mobile to try a new SIM Card...
[HTC Excalibur] Enlefo:
Totally works! Also works with mp3's or by dropping the sounds in the application data sounds folder which would not work with my kavana rom. Woo hoo!

Know how I can set my alarms back to three with a review all page?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
As far as alarm goes can't any much better "i.m.o" than pTravelAlarm it's what i used to use when dash was primary device.
[HTC Excalibur] memphis060:
The ROM is great!!!!

only concern is that it doesn't displays my Provider's name on the home screen... only a number... is there any way to fix that?

I Switched back to WM6 HTC official ROM (spanish), and the Operator's name doesn't shows up. It even acts like if I were on a roaming area, when I know I'm on my home network, and not roaming around.
[HTC Excalibur] memphis060:
Sorry to bother you guys, I just figured out that both ROMS flased into my device, aren't from my local area... Rose remix is from UK, and the HTC WM6 its from Central and South America.

This is why the device "thinks" its roaming. With the NRG ROM it didn't had any problems, since it's US based.

I will try flashing the Original HTC WM6 WWE update again tonight. This is the one that was working great previously on my Excalubur.

Hopefuly it will do the job.

battery problem

Great ROM ,

I was using this ROM and worked like a dream,

until suddenly i noticed my battery being drained pretty fast,

I reflashed the same ROM it was back to normal, until again i am now facing the same problem.

Is this a known bug or its exclusively my problem ??

PLEASE HELP ..............

Thanks:(
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
i have not noticed this, did you have wifi turned on by accident? and how old is your battery?

this is the main rom i use, i have a second dash for playing. its a very stable rom , were lucky to have members like the ones we do in this forum
[HTC Excalibur] drnayeem:
Battery Issue

No i have a good habit of closing applications as soon as am done with those and my DASh id just 7 months old so i guess should not be a issue with the battery ........

Any way out ???
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
ok lets start at squar one, when you say it drians fast, how fast is fast? also what are your charging habbits been like over the 7 months?
[HTC Excalibur] drnayeem:
Battery Issue

Ok thats gr8 ...

i need to charge my cell 2 times a day, and the battery lasts for say half an hour of surfing ... thats it .

Charging habit i have been charging my cell overnight since i purchased it.

any suggestions ?

Hey thanks for your help ....
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
if reflashing isnt a problem i would try that, maybe a different rom to see if the problem stays. or try a new battery, you can get extended batteries from ebay for a decend price.

one of the two should fix the problem, or atleast pin point it
[HTC Excalibur] drnayeem:
Battery Issue

That seems to be a good diagnostic work out,

Will try out Energy Rom, tonight and get back to you .

Thanks
[HTC Excalibur] skaroger867:
yea thats the good thing about the dash, so many roms to choose from. either way i would get an extended battery. im ordering an 1100mAh and a new non t mobile battery cover next week, along with a new upper keypad lol.
[HTC Excalibur] drnayeem:
Battery Issue

Hey ,

Followed your steps and flashed my dash with the new Energy ROM,

ROM looks great, but the battery issue is not yet sorted out,

the cell shuts down all of a sudden with the battery alert and when i reboot it shows 50 to 60 % battery ..............

any diagnosis,

:confused:
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
A "NEW" battery if still an issue then it's hardware.
[HTC Excalibur] drnayeem:
YUP guess so ordered for a new 1050 mA battery on ebay,

should solve the problem i hope ........

Thanks..........
[HTC Excalibur] tbower:
This ROM worked great on my Dash and installed the very first time! Thanks for taking the time to create it.

Wrong Thread.........
[HTC Excalibur] sbressler:
My apologies if this was already mentioned in the thread, but I couldn't find it by searching. I've been using this ROM for about a month and a half, and it's pretty good, save for two big issues. Perhaps you can help me with them:

No audio comes out in Windows Media Player. Speakerphone and ringing working fine, but I can't get audio from Windows Media Player (and I imagine other applications). And yes, I've made sure the audio isn't muted or at 0%.

Often, I get a "tmail.exe was unable to execute because the phone ran out of memory" message (or something to that effect). Almost immediately after the error message, the phone freezes and I have to take out the battery to reset. Also, any text messages that I had recently received are lost when I restart the phone. I never have more than one or two applications open at a time, and this error often comes when it would seem the phone has ample memory.

Thanks so much.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Hard-Reset...........

Thankyou.
[HTC Excalibur] Ray_jai:
Hi, this works looks great!

but for some reason comm manager won't load.

thanks for the rom
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Let the ROM load full @ startup it's a problem with the original port. "there will be a double load leave till done" :)
[HTC Excalibur] Ray_jai:
those this happen after every reboot?

or just the first after flash?

thanks
[HTC Excalibur] cobo10201:
I downloaded the latest version and i really like the ROM, but my RAM slowly drains until the phone isn't useable. I've flashed to other ROMs like Kavana's and the orriginal Rose and I do not have this problem. I only have the RAM drain when using this ROM
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Its been a while since I have used this ROM, but from cases with a lot of ROMS, i can tell you this is definitly a leak. My best guess would be that it has to do with Pocket Internet Explorer, as i have seen it cause this is a lot of other ROMs. I don't currently use the ROM, nor did I make it (though Ricky and Stylez did a great job with it :D), but that is my best bet..my two cents...

Do you use Pocket Internet Explorer? From experience i believe that it doesn't have to actually be open, you just have to have opened it once and that could start a leak...

If you really like the ROM, maybe try using some of the free RAM Free'ing applications out there (use Google and such, I know there are there, I just don't remember where). Maybe that will solve your problem. Best of luck
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
I have to come to the same as i don't use the ROM anymore "update in phone AT&T Tilt" but never during my use did i have a leak that was substancial enough for it to be an issue, mind you many programs stock WM i never use, also with over 6000 downloads still a small ammount of reports of RAM leak "not stating there isn't just that it's not seen by all" ;)
[HTC Excalibur] ReachingForTheSkyEnt:
YOOOOOOOOO STYLEZ

I seen this ROM on my hommies Dash

we feelin it namean

but ummmmmmmmm

How would one switch from 3vo to this Rose

cause I had the K's 6.1 rom it was aight

but I needed a upgrade so I flashed O's 6.5 3vo

and it hot, but some cabs wont work

so I need to downgrade and they say this ROM is the best

help me out!
[HTC Excalibur] Auzern:
I too have downgraded from 3VO's rom to this NRG Rose. This is one of my favourites for the Dash!

Thanks Rickey and Styles :D
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Just flash the same as usual ;) There is a link in first page for if get the 3% error 270 :)
[HTC Excalibur] taalon927:
found something missing i would concider escential.

when viewing the MMS folder or even a MMS message, there is no delete option just move ....

how can i edit in this command? or can this rom be updated with this added and one thing removed?!

id like to suggest removale of the weather apps from the processes, i would suggest they remain as a extra to be installed but in reality.

1. not everyone uses it

2. those that use it dont need it to load up emmediatly

3. if it is used often it can still be added later.

just a idea because the two weather processes are my guess at the long reboot time.

either that or a way i can personally remove them from my phone, heck i live and work on a farm i dont need a phone to tell me its raining when i already know it is lol
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
People have said what to remove to stop weather in thread and the weather wasn't an addition it's part of the ROM, have no idea about MMS but no one else ever mentioned it so imagine there must be a way to delete them..
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
If you can "Move" the MMS, just move them to the trash folder...then click "Empty Trash" or whatnot...that should solve that!

Good Luck :D
