I installed the 6.5 21169 build last night and like this much better than the previous build or 21159. It seems there are more things in here to make it more functional.

I really like the Msoft widgets for the weather, much better than the previous weather program in 6.1 builds. Although, from the weather program, when I go into the Menu/Directory, the selections in here don't seem to function.

Also, I can't pick the IE application and get it to start. Any ideas why either of these won't work?

I installed Google maps and it works fine with the GPS, but can't get the other MSN Widgets to function.

An application said didn't have the latest .Net and I had to install the .Net3.5 after the OS install to get it to work.

I can't get my Bluetooth connection to work. It throws an error "Problem with Bluetooth hardware". When I go into the Settings/Mode, and select "turn on Bluetooth", it always deselects the setting when I OK (with the button) out of the app for the settings. Anyone have any ideas what the problem could be? I really need to get my headset working.

Memory seems to be a bit better to start with than the previous builds.

##Dial Codes

Flashed WM6.5 B59 ROM: Titan 6.5 Beta 5 Titan ROM to my Sprint Mogul

Using the WM6.5 B59 ROM: Titan 6.5 Beta 5 Titan ROM and the only major issues I have seen thus far are that:

1. None of the ##dial codes work when entered into the dial pad.

2. When I manually created my #777 modem for the cellular line to access data network it always prompts for the user name and password and cant access ##778# to make the changes permanent. i installed dcd Sprint Carrier 20090109.cab and still none of the ## codes work correctly on the device.

On the plus side I am impressed with this ROM. It is very functional, slick and performs very well on such a slow device. I can't wait for the final release or at very least the next RC or Beta Release.

Ok I turned email back on and left;

3 Days, Plain Text, 0.5KB message limit, do not include attachments and it worked once.

Then I started playing around and it hasn't worked again. So far I've tried.

3 Days, Plain Text, entire message, include attachments w/no limit, doesn't work.

3 Days, Plain Text, entire message, include attachments w/2048KB limit, doesn't work.

3 Days, Plain Text, header only, do not include attachments, does not work.

3 Days, Plain Text, header only, include attachments w/o limits, does not work.

3 Days, Plain Text, 0.5KB message limit, do not include attachments, does not work.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scorp508:
Here is a quirk. We require PWs on all devices that connect to Exchange. With this build when the device starts and you get the password prompt the keyboard icon doesn't appear until you hit the "menu" option on the right. Usually the keyboard icon appears just a moment after Unlock & Menu show up at the bottom.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] djbeames:
What do you mean you require pw's on all devices that connect to exchange? Your company does? That's a policy that can be updated on the exchange server or even removed. I personally do not REQUIRE a pw on my activesync profile, but thats me.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scorp508:
I deleted the partnership between Exchange and my mailbox on the server and forced another sync to see if that would help. It is definitely talking to the server because the "A change happened that requires a full sync" message came up before it tried to sync again and I see a partnership establishd with my mailbox again. No dice though, same error code. When the IIS logs write out I'll see if I find anything wierd in them.

I'm the (well.. one of) Exchange administrator for my employer. In addition to the normal SSL requirement our ActiveSync policy requires complex passwords on all EAS connected devices as well as inactivity timeouts.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scorp508:
IIS logs look good, but man it will just not sync when email is enabled. Tasks/notes/contacts/calendar is fine... just not email.

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bored2nite:
So?

Not sure if you are still up Mr-Free but,

What are the upgrades to this build. I know its a step closer to the rumored GOLDEN build 21172, but is it that much better than 21159?

Your beta 5 rom for 21159 is niiiiiice, so thats why I ask.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bored2nite:
Well...

As im sure you could have guessed I went ahead and checked it out myself. Of course I understand getting a new build is like starting over brand new so kudos on the fast release considering you got it... yesterday/today?

I figured I would post some pics of the cooler things Microsoft decided to touch up...

Although as much as I am a fan of 6.5... people have it right when they say its a new coat of paint on an old fence...

1st pic - not much change here except for icons, and as someone stated before missing words.. this is what he meant... missed call, voicemail, text, and email (the words) don't show up on titanium.

Also what you won't notice on my screen shots because of my background is the top and bottom now have a dark transparent bar so if you have a white or very light background you can still read your signal and battery life.

2nd Pic - Honeycomb (for it not being completely cleaned up looks and feels nicer than before (or similar to build 59 beta 5) it actually scrolls with your finger lol. I moved up as many Icons as I could that have been given a new look including ICS, Games, Getting Started (im guessing this may be My Phone in the future), File Explorer, a couple widgets, AND WMP (but click on it and its still the same ol plain and boring WMP)

3rd Pic - The Device Lock was updated as you can see on the slider that it is no longer a pentagon but now just a rectangle with arrows on each side (which i think looks a lot cleaner. AND....

4th Pic - The Incoming Call screen (only when in lock mode) has been updated and i'm glad because it looks less like an iPhone thing. the sliders are just green and red, and now the picture would be one you have assigned to your contacts.

5th Pic - I found this kind of funny that they finally decided to work on the keyboard and this is what we get... you get the option to do small or large keyboard.... the picture has the large enabled.. i will admit it is easier but nothing like the EZ Input Keyboards from HTC...

Also as im sure once you find the setting to change that under Settings > Personal > Input that you can enable gestures. The gestures remove a few keys including the space bar and you literally swipe to the right for a space down for enter.. and others... don't like it personally but i guess people ask for gestures lol

Now yes, IE and the widgets do not work at the moment so build 59 beta 5 will be the safe way to go for the moment as Mr-Free uses his spare time (thank you sooooo much btw) to improve each build till the final (and hopefully best one) build comes out.

Oh and one last note.. if you do decide to use this beta... enable clear type under Settings > System > Screen > Clear Type.... Titanium will look better...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Tplane37:
I have seen everything that has previously been mentioned, other than the Exchange bit because I am not on an Exchange Server. With that said, I will also make a few notes.

>Installer says "...beta 1" not "Beta 2" (And given all the work that needs done in this one, might as well call it Beta 1!

>In the Titanium screen, some of the items/rows do not show up UNTIL THEY ARE HIGHLIGHTED. They are there, but you cannot see them unless you actually scroll through. Also, I didn't notice this in *59, but if you scroll with the side wheel, it auto-wraps to the other end when you reach the top or bottom of the Titanium screen....which is kinda nice.

>In the file explorer, it will not allow me to copy from, or replace files in the /Windows directory. I was attempting a temp fix on the Titanium screen by using the "bronzeres.dll" and the "bronzeres.96.dll" files. But I get the whole 'not allowed" BS. I'll try a different file explorer in a bit and see what happens there.

>I like the thought of the "Windows Update".....But I want to see it in English. I'm gonna tap around in there later and hope I find something cool. Can't read it, but you can't blame a guy for hoping it will auto upgrade to a Microsoft Official version!

>I do like the layout of the "Settings" Menu...after getting used to it, I like the new icons to, actually LOOKS like something has changed (though I know now, they haven't changed much of anything.)

>If you want to run the Advanced Config tool, you're gonna have to install it yourself....and the .NET Compact Framework needs updated to 3.5. I just did mine.

>The "Messaging" upper an lower bars are back on boot.

>If you load up "nueExtROM" Cab and drivers, your storage card disappears. I want BOTH (I'd really like to get into the ExtROM2 as well, but haven't found out how yet...but that's another topic for another day).

>More to come, since my girl is gone for the day now.......All in all, 21169 is GOING to be nice, but for your daily ROM, I'd go with 21159 Beta 5 for now. This one in it's current condition will most likely drive you nuts if you're not used to running the latest beta 6.5 releases as they have came out already.

Edited to Add:

>The "TelNav" can go bye bye....again ;-)

>GPS/aGPS works.

>SMS/MMS (Verizon) Works.

>Sync to Hotmail/Live.com, Yahoo! Mail, and gmail all work.

>Battery Icon and everything to the left of it needs shifted to the left a nudge.

>The bi "X" can go bye bye again as well....it doesn't change to "OK" in the appropriate programs either, and holding it down does not seem to close out the apps all the way.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] scorp508:
Sorry, had to roll back to DCD 4.1.2 to get email working again. Can't be without it.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
Thanks for the GREAT report guys .. its funny you would think that as the

build gets closer to the release date that it would have less clean up work!! :rolleyes:

yeah just loaded the files I uploaded .. and yes thats beta 1 .. seems like I built Org. kitchen

when I get home I'll upload the correct Beta 2 .. but yeah still a ton of clean up allover again ..

For new testers that likes a usable 6.5 .. I recommend 21159 build 5

Thanks again guys ..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] djbeames:
Awesome! The decent news would be that some/most the problems mentioned so far were in 59 also. Meaning their fixes should work also. I am actually quite thirlled with 69. I haven't had any crashes yet and it isn't leaking memory. After 14 hours with activesync/exchange enabled and text messaging, I am still at 15MB free.

Let's rock this *69. 72 could be weeks if not months away. ;)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
very true :) should take a week or two to get 69 beyond 59 .. 72 may be

out in two months ;) so I think 69 will have a longer run than 59 .. :)

BTW .. Beta 2 is not Beta 2 .. its Beta 1 .. the real Beta 2 has my OEM

my bad .. I'll upload it later ..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] m_reyna_16:
a lil something i think we can all benefit from are kitchen releases, dont you think? also, is there an opera web browser that i can use besides the htc one? it eats up a lot of memory!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] djbeames:
Opera browser doesn't come built into the ROM, PIE does. Also, I would be against a kitchen until the sys is fixed up a bit. Trying to support different releases of a kitchen with a not-so-functional SYS folder would be a nightmare. I'd say, if you want a kitchen, go with *59 Beta 5 (or 6, once he releases the kitchen). As for *69 in a kitchen, I would definitely like to see one, but not untill the SYS is cleaned up. It can cause major headaches and program incompatability issues.

It would be like MS releasing a windows build to OEM while its still has all the beta code. Telling the OEM peeps to have fun with the code and make it useful for their systems, but you'll have to live with the buggy core system files. ;) Ohh.. Wait... MS does that even with their "official" OEM releases.. Regardless, of release level, they are buggy. Shrug, but you get the idea.

Just my 2 cents.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
21159 kitchen is up and only because I am at the END of 21159 ..

the same will be for 21169 .. there will not be a kitchen for 69 until

its very clean .. close to the end .. however with the speed I am going

that will not be too long anyways :) but yeah 69 is way tooo new..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
Fyi to all

This is where I get my source 6.5 stuff from: http://bbs.pdafans.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=166&filter=type&typeid=169

21159, 21169 and others .. 21172 will also be available from there as well .. this is what I build my Kitchen from ..

the only difference this time .. because Con started on 69 before me, I am using his base SYS in 69 ..

Just letting you all know .. just in case you all like to do the same and or play with 21169 base Kitchen ... enjoy have fun :)

BTW a few tricks .. an easy way to do translation is to find an eng. version of the same file/img etc..

other stuff you just have to do the hard way .. UltraEdit and Restorator 2007 will be your friend :D

Hope that helps give you guys some idea whats going on :D
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] djbeames:
Very good info! But I wouldn't want to take all the fun from you. ;)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] vickylife007:
Oh great! You just cook the meal, and we'll do the eating, it is called division of labour. LOL! I tried to port earlier, I was challenged by a demon that identifies itself as an integer overflow, and I knew this wouldn't go by prayers but by knowledge. LOL! Saw the base lang you posted at ppcgeeks, didn't solve the problem. Want us to do what you do best? It will have to start with good tutorials regardless of what has been posted before cos this 6.5 is new.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Screwbal:
for confirmation sake can you confirm once you've updated the posted bits for B2? I don't want to flash B1 thinking its B2 and just end up reflashing again in a few hours heh.

**Edit: Reason for asking is because the ROMUpdateUtility still calls out B1
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DavidinCT:
Will try tonight, Also will be syncing with a Exchange 2003 server, so if it can work, I'll figure it out but, from what I am reading, so far so good...

Actually, going to grab a brew and try it now...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] m_reyna_16:
noticed a couple of things...

1. the taskmanager drop down menu overlaps with the battery icon in the taskbar.

2. wmp does not play videos

3.the text messages windows need to be moved up because the whole msg does not show up

4.when recieving a call, if you have a contact with a photo, the photo does not show all the way.

5. and of course your internet and some widgets do not work but i think that it is because the sys files have not been messed around with, but still wanted to point them out as i know that someone has already done so
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] m_reyna_16:
very true on the kitchen part, and i know htc opera is not included in the build, i installed it, but what i am asking is that if there is another version of opera that does not eat alot of memory like the one ripped off of the htc version!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] cmf04:
Use opera mini it is way faster and way less on memory.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] m_reyna_16:
thanks, will try!

Any suggestions?

It was noted in an earlier post the ie does not open
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
lol integer overflow is no big thing :) just modules .mui/.bin files issues

sometimes even the image..txt file has bad markers in them .. funny thing is

to get Conf.. SYS's to work .. I had to port all the .MUI and .bin's myself from

the China source pkg .. over 40% of the files I had to replace in his B2 ..

the B1 was very easy .. only replaced the Base_long folder .. and yes that

only works on his B1 .. does not work for his B2 ... I am hoping next time the

SYS will be a ton better .. if not I'll just have to do it all myself again lol

only issue is .. I'm getting busy at work again .. a few new projects that will

keep me crazy busy .. so I hope Beta 3 .. will get 69 to a level that I can

relax lol for a bit :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mr-free:
yes it was .. only a few minor changes was done in B2 .. like dialer, and my B5 OEM ..

however it should look feel about the same .. also fix the big X .. but got to fix the ok .. a list of stuff posted by the guys .. will do so for Beta 3 ..

Was busy last night with my better-haft ;) got to keep her happy :D .. I'll upload the correct B2 when I get home later..

My issues as noted above with 59 b5 are even worse once I flashed to 69 B2 (shows b1). I flashed to it last night, installed my carrier cab, and synced my contacts. Set the alarm (and my alarm clock as backup thankfully), and it never even went off this morning. I made sure the days were set correctly and such, they were. I tried move off of the time/clock on the home screen, and it was frozen. My contacts wouldn't open.

Going back to 59, and copying a cooked 6.1 rom too, just in case.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Screwbal:
No Bluetooth

I know B2 is supposed to be uploaded a little later tonight which may address this but I haven't seen it mentioned on this thread thus far that I can find.

Bluetooth doens't work with the B1 build.

Anyways looking forward to messing with the newer builds as they roll out and will post any other issues I find along the way :)

Making and receiving calls without issue.

No GPS (yet).

Did you get Exchange to sync?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] wolftlb:
Thank you mr. free i have been beta testing right alone with each release and must say have not had any issues that was not reported. For being beta i think 21159b4 was great. This is my issues with 21169b2.

1. Could not send any mms(pic message)

Yes I installed dcd carrier I even tried to manually put the info for server and my password in and still not sending. I was even told to just visit the epst not to change anything and to just goto ok to reset it. this could be just my device if anyone would mind confirming.

2. Going in portrait mode then tapping start menu everything would smash to the left side and trying to tap on it would totally bork the phone.

3. The scrolling on the today screen seems to work fine until i run oxios hib. even when my mem. is low.

As I said this could be only on my phone it really has been known to be one of a kind with the issues I have. O well 1 more month and I'll have the Raphael I'll miss my titan its been good:(. thank you again mr.free and dcd for all the hard workxda is the home of true ppc gods:) lol.

installed 21169 b2 - exchange activesync syncs only once

great work on this! love the look and feel.

i tried 59 b4 and 59 b5 also and had issue with activesync on all roms. it would sync upon 1st setup and then after reading or composing stop syncing with error 0x80070057. if i unselect my inbox from sync set sync works just fine. nothing worthy to note of in the exchange server logs and security logs are all successes. i would love to keep this as my daily but inbox activesync is necessary.

issues with new beta 2 r 2

Voice recorder still not working. (not trusted error, followed by device freeze)

What happened to the "telenav" from the first "beta 2" (the one that was really beta 1?) (( ))

Outlook Via ActiveSync (with SprintPCS connection) is broke again. I must delete the server and then add a new source, after each email is received.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] abuttino:
Did they restore the Start menu in this release or does it come up with that honeycomb when you press start?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] anthonyandrews:
honeycomb comes up sometimes, sometimes meaning I have to press it twice on occasion.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] vickylife007:
LOL, I have read many of your posts, this was your first question after every new release, even at ppcgeeks, lol. I'd personally love to appeal to MS on this cos they are about to lose a client.

Has anyone had success in running an exchange update beyond the first sync in any setup? I'm hoping to see if we can find the problem.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Screwbal:
I'm able to sync with my work's exchange. Went through the initial setup without issue. I've got it set to sync as items arrive (which is a battery drain i know) but it seems to be working for me.

I'm pretty sure we're running exchange 12.

I've only been running on this for a couple hours still so haven't had much time to go through all the settings/apps to see what works vs what doesn't but here's a couple things below.

Working:

Exchange/Activesync

Text messages (haven't tried to load MMS yet)

GPS works

Configured GMAIL fine.

Installed Windows Live services for hotmail sycn.

Not working/Issues:

Bluetooth (may have to load a old ROM for this since hands free is required while driving in my state)

In landscape mode the start menu distorts where the icons get oversized. Initially it was fine but its acting up now (not sure what I did that broke it)

Unable to click the battery icon on the start menu to display battery power. It seems to overlap with the HTC task manager possibly?

Installed SPB Backup 2.0. Tried to backup and it failed. SPB prompted to reboot and phone came up blank everything gone =\ going to try to mess with this more and see if SPB broke it or if something else got unstable.

**SPB update: After the phone came back up clean I loaded SPB first and was able to perform a backup. I'll try to narrow down if there is a app breaking SPB or if it was a freak thing that erased everything.

Are there any reg tweaks we can do that might get bluetooth up and running or is it a deeper issue with the build possibly?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DavidinCT:
Yep, able to sync with my Exchange 2003 server.... This build seems ok, a little flaky here and there but, the thing I hate most is IE does not work at all.

I was looking to see if IE was upgraded any bit in a newer build...

Is 21169 the newest build ?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] abuttino:
The Start Menu is horrible thing to lose and I just don't understand why they would ditch the MRU list.
