I think mr-free offered a solution, he brought the old menu into newer build. Have you seen this?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3352677&postcount=357

I personally didn't want anyone giving me new wine in old wine skin, so I didn't go there. Don't know however how mr-free made his mix, whether it was the new wine he put into old skins, or the old skins he dipped inside the new wine, :D.

One thing am sure of though, no matter the mix, mr free comes out with very promising work, and seem to thrive where others fail. So, give that rom a shot.;)

Network Admin

I just received notice last night that a network administrator is wanting me to develop a ROM to be ran on 14 Titan's. He has confirmed with HTC that he can still order them directly from them. Here's my issue, I don't know exactly what programs to cram into a ROM. Here is what he told me he would like to be able to do with his device, so any of you networking bit heads out there that could be of some help, can you please reference some programs and what they do that would be beneficial to a Network Administrator. Here's the list::confused:

>Domain Enroll

>Remote Desktop

>Ping Box

>IP Trace/IP Monitoring

>Mobile FTP Client for FTP log in

>WiFi Monitoring

>Password Manager

>Capable of locking the SD Card without Encryption. (ie having selected programs on the SD Card, able to be ran on multiple phone, but restricting the user from adding/deleting files to the card. Kind of like "Sealing" or "Finalizing" a CD-R/RW)

I am looking to do this on the WM 6.5 platform to show off, but then put it on a quality 6.1 ROM (Hopefully appearing to be 6.5 with everything registering as 6.1 for legal reasons in the company:-D). Basically, I have absolutely no paperwork to back up any thing I know about networks, computers, or anything in the technical field. If I can prove enough to show that I am interested, he is willing to bring me in the door at around $30k and the company will pay for my actual formal training. But I am told that it all hinges on what ROM I set down in front of him next week. So any pointers would be great, and this will also be a chance to test 21169 on the Network Admin side. :D

EDIT: Correction, he is looking at the TyTN II. After talking with HTC, he found that the Titan and the TyTN II are almost identical, but the TyTN II has additional functionality. So I will be testing this on my TITAN, but may have to figure out how to run everything on a TyTN II...which I am hoping is going to be fairly simple once I have a build ready.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
FYI

FYI

well 21169 has a memory leak .. gwes.exe starts off at 3.9MB and within 8-9hr is gets up to 14.5MB

if you like to confirm this soft reset your phone before going to bed,

run "Task manger" from Start/"Task manger" go to: menu/view/Processes

you'll see gwes.exe at 3-4MB .. go to Zzz .. 8-9hr later you'll see gwes.exe

over 14+MB .. I am hunting down a good 6.5 gwes.exe .. hope to find a good one..

Beta 3 is looking a lot better, I corrected what you have found so far .. but memory is still an issue !!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] anthonyandrews:
Is 30k A lot for you? Where I live, you could make more than that delivering pizza, or as an unarmed security guard!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] anton_spaz:
Ok.... how are you getting 8 - 9 hours sleep? *I* can't manage that... And I'm not being hounded 24/7 to release fix fix fix release fix fix release release release ....
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] anton_spaz:
While that all sounds like fun and excitement, I'd be very careful, if I was you.

If cell-phone carriers are anything like the (old people like me remember) land-line carriers, you are not allowed to connect any non-approved device to the network. In the olden days, people would mess around with phones/faxes/modems (I'm not even going to mention the hacking/phreaking side), and entire substations could be "cooked". From something as simple as having a tiny little too much current being sent down the phone line.

I bet, no matter what carrier, that the ROMs we run.... are against their policies/rules/laws etc. And could most likely involve very large fines.

Ok, so the company buys the phones from HTC direct... so you are not stuck under the "2 year contract to use this phone", but I'd get that network admin to actually verify that whatever carrier he is wanting to use, will allow a "custom ROMed phone" to be run on their network.

I'm on Exchange 2003 also. I'd love to know the results if you find them.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
I am getting reports that Beta 2 Rel. 2 corrected the 2003 exchange server sync issues .. can a few more ppl test Beta 2 Rev. 2 with exchange Thanks..

BTW if you all did not know .. I had uploaded Beta 2 rel. 2 a few days ago.. forgot to update the Subject..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
lol easy .. my work hours is from 11am to 7pm .. I go to bed at 12am,1-2am some times and up by 9-10am ..

takes me about 15-20min to get to work .. so yeah .. even tho I am up very late I still get 8-9hr of sleep :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Tplane37:
30k isn't to shabby around here, especially for an entry level position in a technical field when you have no verifiable documentation. Most every place that I have found gets nervous when you ask for anything over $10 an hour. The kicker with this company is the Health and Dental benefits, and the Education reimbursement. Plus the scheduled raises every 6 months and an automatic additional 3k per year per MS Certification that you earn....and the books and testing is paid for (ie opens the door to use your newly paid for Certification in a different company down the road). But Yeah, it's worth it for me.

Read the EULA for starters, the cell phone companies have no "Legal" right to restrict a person for making software edits and installs to their device. the issue only comes in when you start over clocking processors because of FCC Regulations. Also, hacking is legal in Ohio so long as you are not hacking with the intent of causing harm/malicious intent. And in the contract between Verizon and Microsoft (my carrier, and the carrier that will be used by the Admin), Verizon cannot restrict Microsoft Certified Techs from making modifications or installing software on the phone. I have not researched the contract between Verizon and HTC to see what if any restrictions are there for the hardware side of the coin. So basically, I am not concerned in the aspect. However, a corporation running WM 6.5 before it is released could be a completely different issue. That is why the 6.5 thing is just to show off, but things will actually be ran on WM 6.1 since it has officially been released.

Exchange

Unfortunately it is not working for me. After initial set up and sync it never syncs again.:(
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] pmatthewsatiug:
I can confirm that the activesync problem still exists. If I disable email, then calendar, etc. syncs fine. My experience is consistent with what others have reported.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Screwbal:
Anyone know whats happening differently on exchange 2003 vs 2007 since 2007 (exchange 12) seems to work ok?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] pmatthewsatiug:
No clue. I'm on Exchange 2003 and having the problem.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scorp508:
Exchange 2007 has a slightly newer version of the EAS protocol, but the protocol in WinMo 6.5 is supposed to be fully compatible with the version Exchange 2003 has.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kman13:
My findings...

OK folks, so I flashed a couple of days ago, I'm running *69 Beta 2 on a VZ xv6800.

Things that don't work:

1. Bluetooth - In comm. manager, try to turn it on ... nothing happens, it just gives the spinny windows thing in the center and goes back to the "off" position. I personally prefer wired headsets, but there is no 2.5mm jack, and even though i have the usb>3.5mm adapter ... that doesn't help me for a headset.

2. IE - Click icon from start menu, get returned to home screen. Not really a big deal as I don't even have a data plan at the moment ;)

Things that kind of work:

1. SMS app - loading the text message app takes FOREVER, and sometimes it will hang/freeze the phone, requiring a soft reboot. Is anyone else having this problem? Sometimes, the screen does not fully refresh, and shows fragments of an open message, over the message listing screen ... I will try to get a picture.

1a. Also, the sms notification area that pops up at the bottom is often too small.

2. Sometimes, when receiving an incoming call, it will show me the phone number of the caller, but not their name (even though they are in my contacts [EVERY number in my phone book has an area code, so this definitely isn't the reason]).

Everything else pretty much works. Although I will say I am getting less signal bars in the same location as i did with 6.0/6.1.

Things I noticed that confused the hell out of me:

1. Vibrate for text messages is unchecked by default. Made me think the vibrate function was broken at first.

2. Using the arrow keys on the keyboard, or the d-pad under the screen, while in a text message input area, selects text, instead of moving the cursor. I looked for a setting to change this back to moving the cursor, but could not find one...

I think that's all I got for now.

I'm really curious if anyone else is experiencing SMS issues though, because I sms A LOT. Although of course, it's been okay all day ... knock on wood ... the first two days I had it running 6.5 it was atrocious.

IE FIX

I found that this .reg (adjustment) for IE will enable the browser to function in this 69B2 version.

HKLM\Security\Internet Explorer, MSHTML = 1 (change to 0).

This was originally posted somewhere else, I think regarding CR1??

Hope it helps.

BTW 59 B5 is solid for me (VZW user). Also the program icons are less redundent.:D
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] vickylife007:
Testing this rom, it offers better promise once we get round fixing the so many bugs....... I commend mr-free for being so tireless...... it's a miracle u get 8hrs of sleep.

Okay we already know IE doesn't work for now but is there a fix for this? also I have two IE icons in the start menu, wondering why am so blessed.

I observe the os reads 21159, so I guess you ported 21169SYS to 21159os, so what's wrong with 21169 OS, do you have the xip, if yes could you plss share?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] sdsoundguy:
Problems

Loaded 69 b2 last night was working fine, did the tweak I read about to get IE working taht was fine. Activsync with Exchange 2003 SP2 worked until a softrest.

After softrest is where I started having major problems came back with a white screen, error could not find outlook then other things started disapearing, Photo Contacts Pro version 5 then gave that error. All those programs were stored in main memory not on the storage card.

Going back to Skips 1.1 for now put I will try this again when I have more time off
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] vickylife007:
okay IE fix works but OMG! Whaat is this? It's the 6.1 browser, what a blow! Pls mr free, get it out of there. Can you reloc the IE8 from 21159 there? Now talk about 8hrs of rest and your passion for this? I don't know how you strike the balance.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kman13:
I forgot to mention the contact list issue ... I wonder if anyone else has this?

When scrolling the contacts, if you have a contact with multiple numbers (home, mobile, work, etc) and you push left or right on the d-pad, it just brings you back to the top of the list.

Very odd.

Anyway, I really need help with the SMS problem ...

I'm thinking maybe it's cuz I have SO many messages in my inbox? I transferred them all over with PIM backup... Maybe I'll back them up again, and erase them all, and see if that fixes it ... it just takes so damn long!

Also, I never did mention the things I liked a lot...

The new lock/pin screen is amazing!

Home screen is nice

Honeycomb is not bad ... oh that's another issue I have ...

When I move an icon to the top in the honeycomb, and then try to move it back down, it just goes back to its original position.

So ... thoughts, anybody?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DavidinCT:
Yea, I agree, I wanted to get the newest build to see the new enhancements in IE (as IE has always been a POS for web browsing)but, this build has the old version, a step backwards... 21159 version of IE was a step in the right direction....at least put that back in the build (or a newer version if there is one ?)

As for bugs. etc

1. Exchange active sync appears to work fine, from a 2003 exchange server.

2. Data Connection is always on for some reason (happend in 21159 too), Activesync is set to only sync manually. If I shut it off, it will be back on next time I turn on the phone. This is a huge battery killer.

3. A few memory issues (out of memory, programs won't run, and plenty of memory free)

4. Phone sort of locking up....Light will be blinking (showing in signal) but, hit the power button, nothing happens, screen will not come on or phone won't do anything (need to reset to use again), not all the time but, every once and a while (3 times over the last 2 days)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] emeraldayotte:
input keyboard

I can't change the input keyboard from MS default to either touchpal or the diamond keyboard that I installed.

Was able to do it using *59 beta 2. Any ideas?

Thanks for all your hard work mr free!!!!!!!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] kev3303:
69 b2 r2 still no promise of exchange activesync working after any outlook change, reading an email or deleting a contact. :(
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] -berlin-:
Ok I was looking at your photos and compared them to Beta 2 and my font is different in titanium the words begin with an upper cases i was curious why this changed.

Few Bugs:

I noticed that the font for your next calender event on the lock screen is relatively small and difficult to read.

Also my drop down bar to close programs is overlapping with the battery icon.

Also whenever i ahve a program open the "x" is microscopic instead of normal sized.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Tplane37:
>I also noticed the microscopic "X' and "OK"....can we use what is in the *59 Beta 5 release for the upper bar?

>*69 B2R2 (Not to be confused with R2D2), does seem to be quite a bit quicker and more responsive. I like the condensed icons in the settings menu, and have done something similar in my Programs Menu. I also like the appearance of the Icons and the FIXED Titanium screen (Good Job to whomever was involved with that fix!).

>The Battery/Clock notification in all windows is set to far to the right. It seems as if the other notifications are in the correct locations though.

>.NET 3.5 framework needs correctly added. Pull the files from *59 if needed, or remove it completely to allow for install later. I am being prevented from installing .NET 3.5 Compact Framework, and I believe this is the issue.

>Please see previous "bug" for Advanced Config...get an error when trying to load, cannot update .NET 3.5 framework to test any further there.

>Fennec still doesn't work. Doubt it has anything to do with WM 6.5, because it has never been claimed to work....just thought I'd throw it out there.

>I have not been able to successfully test Remote Desktop because we managed to get the security on our network to tight this time around....great to keep people out though, cause even we can't break into it!!! To many routers and firewalls in place right now, still gonna work on it though. But I have reason to believe the Remote Desktop will work on a less secure network.

>Domain based remote desktop seems to use far to much memory. IE will start loading it, but then the device freezes. Again, not sure if it is WM 6.5 or my server kicking back far to much information at once. Gonna keep at this as well.

>I found an awesome locking screen that works very well on WM 6.5 (*59 B4 and B5, as well as *69 B2R2). The CAB and Screen shots are below. I tested them on *69, though the screen shots are from the *59 B5 build (since I did end up going back to it again because of not being able to modify the settings in Advanced Config)

>I have also noticed the memory leak, and it doesn't take the full 8 hours to max out to the 99% range and make the phone go "DUHHHH."

Also works:

>ActiveSync

>Arcsoft (SMS/MMS)

>Hotmail/Live mail, and Yahoo mail all seem to be working.

>The GPS and aGPS are working as well. Google Maps with "Latitude" and Live Search are working.

>Encryption *.lnk is still present, default is "unchecked" and grayed out.

>Skyfire Beta works well too. "Short CAD" (Mobile Auto CAD) runs fine.

>Ext ROM work with the B2R2 and still shows the Storage Card...so that's fixed now.

>Microsoft "My Phone Beta" works as well. Seems to be pretty good for backing up your device, and uses very little memory. I am also using Dashwire still, but that's just to be on the safe side.

>Ping Box seems to work, again, seems to be an issue on my Network side preventing me from pinging packages.

>SQL Server Compact works, but is a MEMORY HOG!!! But it works and I would advise installing it to a SD Card that is only inserted when you want to use it.

Do we have a 21169 XIP yet??

That's about it for me right now.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] -berlin-:
I really liked the upper bar from the *69 beta 1 top bar (except the drop down bar covers up battery icon) and titanium fonts they where the most pleasing to the eyes imo and looks most authentic.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DavidinCT:
Any idea why under this version that it always connects to the internet no matter what I am doing, when ever I make a call or just turn the phone on ?

I like being connected to the internet all the time but, the problem is the battery only lasts a few hours when connected.

Active sync is set to manually sync (only when I select send and recieve)...

Any clue ?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] djbeames:
I don't think we are constantly connected. I think there is a problem with the data arrows. They never gray out. The actual data connection cannot be active when a phone call is in progress, however, my data arrows still show solid. Like I said, I think it is just the arrows do not gray out.

21176

Hey guys my notebook took a dump on Friday was not able to do anything over the long weekend

(including Monday) with 21169, I see that I got a lot of reply to do lol but at this point 21176 is out so

guess I'll just start on 21176 once I get a new notebook later today..

FYI: I'm at work right now..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Tplane37:
If you start up a new thread for the 21176, could you post a link here and over at 21159 to direct people to the new thread? Kind of a way to keep things organized. I am bouncing around between the 21139, 21159, 21169, and now attempting to get 21176 to load. But since I come up with ideas at really odd times, I find one of your posts through Google, and link into the correct thread that way (If I am on a different computer and if I don't have my External HHD with me).

Thanks for all the hard work, hope to see you back soon.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DavidinCT:
Is 21176 the final 6.5 ? I hope all the little annoying bugs are fixed with it and the updated IE works on it...

im confused, didnt they say that 72 was the last "official build"? and now we have 76???
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DavidinCT:
Who's got 76 for the titan ? I think Mr. Free is building with the new image. I hope it's more torwards the final..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] m_reyna_16:
they are working on it in PPCGeeks.com, i think mr. free is gonna work on it but his computer is out, or something like that
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Tplane37:
21176 XIP

Here's the XIP files for 21176. I have yet to figure out how to compile them into the XIP files we typically use...for the Titan in particular.

I grabbed these from over at PPCGeeks. I am also going through the 21176 SYS. I have been able to get it through BuildOS without error using the 21159 XIP, I tried flashing it a couple time, but it won't boot. I think the 21159 XIP is conflicting some how (don't know how but...). But I will continue working on it. Anyone else who thinks they can get these files/modules into a XIP we can use...it is attached below. Good luck!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] vickylife007:
Porting a system is relatively easier, but porting an xip? Too many processes! However now that necessity is laid on us, it's worth giving a shot. I'll try and see what I can come up with later (not with my system now)

Phone not booting should not be from the xip, it's the same platform (wm 6.5) though different build, so it should work. Problem should be with some files in the system though it passed the greloc test.

Again did you add the oem folders? It's very important that you do cos of folders like the bootlauncher, oemapp, drivers and misc, etc etc.

Will try experimenting when I get home tonight, though yet to download the 21176 sys. Hope mr-free bounces back into action fast. We miss him.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] orangeagent:
Not sure what the issue is...Just installed the beta rom, installed the alltel cab file so my data would work, however, when I select internet explorer, it just takes me back to the today screen. Any help would be appreciated.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] vickylife007:
First of all build 21169 has the updated IE8 and works perfectly. I love the added enhancements. After some failures I was eventually able to port the same system base mr free used, and discovered the IE8 worked flawlessly.

My guess is when mr free was cleaning up the system he must have mistakenly replaced the browser folders with that of wm 6.1

Yes lot of issues with '69 couldn't get many things to work, didn't know how mr free got them to work in his release. I guess that's what separate the men from the boys.

Well, I believe we gone past '69 now, with its memory leak and battery drain and other issues. Let's see what mr free offers us with build 21176
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] vickylife007:
Go to page 9 of this thread, post #83. The fix is there.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DavidinCT:
Thanks! I hope the little issues are gone with 21176, I look forward to a updated version, maybe 6.5 will run as good (hope better) than 6.1.... Between the Internet always connecting when I make a call, bad memory leaks and really bad battery drain on 69, I look forward to a new release..

I'm really looking forward to seeing the newer IE version for WM....
