Some feedback and issues with Ryan's WM6.1 Light ROM

Ryan, thank you for all your work to produce such a nice Rom with so many tweaks and settings as I have always liked them. Why can't they hire people like you to implement these settings in their stock ROM. HTC phones are pretty crippled and slow out of the box...I think that is why so many people return WM phones.

Well after using Ryan Mogul's Light WM6.1 on my Verizon XV6800 for over a week now, I have found a few issues and have some questions:

1. Occasionaly when I try to call a toll free (800 or 888) number, it makes the call but I hear nothing but faint echos of my own voice. I have to soft reset the phone, then it calls those numbers fine, strange.

2. In Smart Dialing, I have Enabled double-click for Dialing, but it does not work. When I pull up a name in the dialer and select, it calls the number instead of going to the contact to choose which number I want to call or if I want to edit, etc. I'm not finding a new version of Smart Dialer, this ROM includes 2.5 Build 28796.

3. I really liked the HTC Homeplug in the Today options, so I can rotate the screen using the icon. Why did you remove it or is there another desktop icon I can use? I suppose I can add this as a button in my Claunch application (nice little app to add icons for anything you want)

4. Icontact is super slow to open each time as I have over 800 contacts, so I stopped using it. Is there anyway to uninstall it or remove it to free up some memory? I figured out how to disable it so it doesn't really bother me now but like to clear out apps I don't use. I mainly Voice Command or Smart Dialer to look up a contact much faster.

5. Vj Candela Flashlight: I assigned Voice Button (just press, NOT hold) and it works once to turn on flashlight but after turning off the next time I press the Voice Button the flashlight just blinks quickly but doesn't stay on again. When I soft reset I get to use it once again then the same issue. So I just installed my old trusty Torchlight App and it works fine to keep the LED on using the Voice Button.

6. In the stock threaded MMS app, when looking at my list of text messages, the lower left button used to be delete, now it is reply. I miss having the delete button there as it is just as quick to reply by opening a text message, than it is to press the reply button. But now to delete I have to press menu, scroll down two times then press delete (when only using hardware keys to keep the screen cleaner). Anyway to change it back?

Here are my contributions of great free programs I recommend for others:

Torchlight flashlight, works great for me everytime.

Claunch (create icons on your phone today screen/desktop)

Mbutton (create XP like Taskbar at top of your phone, easier to close apps and more features)

Bluetooth Audio (transmit all audio such as MP3's to your BT headset)

MortPlayer (Great fast free MP3 Player)

Alright, hope I can get some solutions to my first 3 issues, that would be great.

To release a Kitchen using my ROM files would take another person 2 Computers, 2 brains, 4 eyeballs, 4 Arms and hands, and a large bottle of aspirin.

I dont have Opera cooked into my ROMs. I have Opera Mini cooked in. Its a small Java APP and Skyfire is not Java it is its own larger Application.

I cant make everyone happy as the world is so diverse that not everyone is going to like the "menu". I dont bother to try, I just brush the dirt off of my shoulders and chalk it up to experience..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Thanks for the donation NewAje! I appreciate it and your compliments on my work..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] hentai_jeff:
Eh I wasn't expecting anything, but if you could consider adding myphone to the ROMs that might be nice ;)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blokgang2009:
repost: my picture mail isnt working properly with this rom...is there some sort of patch im missing or something...its sending me to sprint picturemail showing a really small pic asking if i want to print it and when i save it to my phone its a 92x92 and that never happened before...any ideas?

Fixed Smart Dialing by downgrading it

In regards to my original issue with Smart Dialing on Ryan's ROM: When I pull up a name in the dialer and select, it calls the number instead of going to the contact to choose which number I want to call or if I want to edit, etc. I'm not finding a new version of Smart Dialer, this ROM includes 2.5 Build 28796.

I have now installed an older version 2.5 (build 27526) and it works the way it used and the way I believe it is intended by the author. I really like this feature to quickly look up a contact by typing in the first few letters in the phone vs. opening the contacts and scroll or typing letters there.

Hope this helps anyone that missed this old feature of Smart Dialing and is using Ryan's awesome ROM!

Two requests if possible to implement: Can I uninstall or remove Icontact, or at least remap the RoladeX button to open contacts instead of Icontact? Is this a registry setting I can tweak? Just hitting it by accident makes my phone freeze till Icontact finally opens, it is way too slow for me, probably since I have over 800 contacts...who wants to finger scroll through such a long list! Having Icontact degrades HTC in my opinion, I figure most folks buying this phone do not care for the iphone or its' layout/features.

In the mailbox or text messaging, is it possible to remap the "reply" button (lower left) to Delete as it originally was?

These are not deal breakers for me and I still love Ryan's ROM! If I can tweak those settings that would be awesome.

Well maybe I will try it out and see what you mean. If I notice that it has better features then I will cook it in. Things cant always be perfect friend. There are too many men, too many people, making too many problems.. And theres not much love to go round.. "land of confusion"

Peoples interests and concerns are too diversed to ever please everyone. You as the ROM user can always edit the registry, delete files outside of windows directory, etc.. Install cab's to further customize your phone. Set up MMS server options, etc.. you just have to know what you are doing.

I simply cant look everything up for everyone, you have to search, and try things.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] eigerzoom:
whats the awesome task manager included in the 6.1 light rom

didn't see it in the software list and i'm not on your rom currently

thanks much...(system manager maybe?)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
That would be Dotfreds Task Manager. Excellent utility for sure.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blokgang2009:
any idea whats up with the picture mail on 2.2 light?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Well Sprint must have obviously changed their MMS server.. They have done it before so no suprise that they do it again. So they changed their server to spite.. I dont know why some Carriers are such A-Holes..

Just look up sprint MMS settings and try a couple things. Like you said, it used to work.. I know it used to work because of my Beta testers when I first created the Sprint ROMs. Things dont last forever especially "good things".

I cant find "Camera 4.05.30525.00<---Stock Titan camera" in my Kitchen... :confused:
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] nyclegend20:
i installed this rom

and my phone just randomly freezes

like its just laying there and i dont know its frozen until i pick it up and its been frozen for like hours

i keep soft resetting but it freezes like every hour

how do i fix this
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] paintballinfl:
flashed tonight, worked great for me. Only one problem, it may just be me, but I couldn't find TCPMP.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blokgang2009:
ahh i cant find anything on this mms...everything i find is how there was a cab for picmail released in 2008 lol...is it something im gunna need to change in the registry? or just a new cab ill need to install..im kinda stumped
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Get hold of MattSM, he is a Sprint Mogul user maybe he can help you out with getting true MMS to work on Sprint (if it even exists anymore). Once you find out relay it to me and I will make sure its cooked in. Like i said though I know both of Sprints MMS servers and they both do the same thing redirect to Web based MMS.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] mattsm:
All you get is the web based mms. I do not even cook in mms anymore. The sprint picture mail cab that was released in 2008 works but it is a memory hog.

As far as getting the mms to work, it used to, but now it does not. You can thank sprint for this. You will always get the redirect for mms.

Unless things have changed, cuz I have not even tried in a few months.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] ouellettesr:
Ryan Thanks for this wonderful Rom.. I have a couple issues though and maybe u can help me.

I am using the light version 2.1 for alltel.

1.When I first installed it I noticed that the options menu, was bigger and easier to use.. i.e. the "right click menu" but now for some reason it has defaulted back to the old style that was in 6.1 Its not a critical thing, it was just easier to use with my fat fingers.

EDIT*** I realized the bigger menu is from the theme that is selected by default. I changed it because the theme loses the bottom bar in messaging or other screens besides the today screen.

2. If you click exit in Comm manager, it does not exit, you have to manually close it via task manager.

3. I would like to have HTC sliding sound control panel.

EDIT** I noticed that that this is not included in the light version, but it is said to be included in the Heavy version, I tried that rom and still could not find it.

4. When my phone connects to data for email, it actually opens up the email app., rather than just displaying it on the today screen.

5. It would be nice to have the add application plugin for the 6.5 today screen.

Alternatively is there any way I can use your kitchen to cook up my own rom?

I tried cooking my own but I cant get the camera to work properly...
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] blokgang2009:
alright...so i flashed back to the stock mogul rom and installed the winpm.cab and it works just fine without redirecting me to sprintpicturemail.com or whatever the site is....so it must be something in that cab that this rom doesnt like
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Well link me to the exact Sprint Picture Mail CAB that you installed. Also tell me if the stock rom you are using has threaded messaging with arcsoft or if it just has "text messaging" with a seperate Picture Mail app that u installed. I can then figure out how to implement the working mms into my sprint ROMs.

Only way sprint is going to stop me is if they get rid of Picture mail altogether.

I dont see why the dont have true MMS.. I mean they have the Sprint Mogul and Touch Pro etc... So wtf is their problem.. Even Cricket has true MMS and that is pretty sad Sprint.. Cricket doesnt have any PDAs like that available.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] BladeNY:
I have a question on the Verizon 2.2 light, I love it btw, just having an issue with text messages. I receive them, can read them but then they are gone, cannot find them at all. The SMS/MMS screen when brought up is always blank with the instruction on how to create a new message.

I did not have this problem on the 2.1 light or the 2.2 heavy.

Any help would be appreciated since I think I finally found a ROM that I would like to stick with. Thank you for the hard work Ryan
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Sounds like you are either not in your "inbox" (pull down tab on left of messaging app) or you are in "outlook email".

Just simply press left or right while in messaging app to switch between accounts. It starts out default in outlook email.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] oneders65:
Going from DCD to Ryan's Mogul

With DCD you had carrier cabs to activate internet. How do you do this with this ROM?

"You have to set up PST/QPST settings for your carrier and activate the Internet (data connection) the first time while the phone is unplugged."

Is there a wiki?:confused:
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] BladeNY:
Looks like I got it working. I turned off threading and restarted the phone, sent myself a couple text messages which did stay, then turned threading back on and restarted phone again. Previous messages were still there and made a couple additional text and they also showed up and stayed. Very odd but I got the idea from a couple pages back where a person was having trouble with threading but he left his off.

I actually did not know you could press left and right, I always have used the pulldown. Very convient, Thank you.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Always list which version ROM you are using and Carrier when asking a question in this Multi-ROM, Multi-Carrier thread.

Activating the internet is like installing a carrier cab BUT you can skip having to install anything. Just make sure your PST settings are Correct for the Carrier and Activate the Internet the very first time you use it (meaning after flash or hard reset).

So just open up Internet Explorer or use something that "activates data" and if the Carrier requires more information a prompt will come up and tell you. And just like the Carrier cabs it is up to you to know what to type in. But for example

Cricket would be:

User name = yourtendigitphonenumber@mycricket.com <<----replacing text with actual phone number

Password = cricket <<---lowercase

domain = blank <<---so nothing there

Save password = Put a check in this box

Then click OK, or Done. Its been awhile since I have had to activate my data connection.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] oneders65:
Alltel data activation information?

Does anyone have the activation information for alltel?

User name = yourtendigitphonenumber@UKNOWN.com <<----replacing text with actual phone number

Password = Unknown <<---lowercase

domain = unknown <<---so nothing there

Save password = Put a check in this box

SPL 2.47

Alltel PPC6800

ROM DCD's 3.3.4

Radio Alltel 03.42.50
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Your information can easily be found by searching.. Alltel does not require a user name or password.. Hint..

So if your Internet isnt working you either:

A. Dont have unlimited data plan, you messed with settings yourself and need to hard reset, you need to un-authenticate and re-authenticate, you may need to call Alltel "verizon" and tell them your data isnt working and to "refresh your account"

B. Your QPST/PST settings are incorrect for Alltel.

All of these questions can be found by searching and if still needed should be asked in a new thread outside of the "upgrading forum". You will get your answers a lot faster by searching though..

Hey ryan I love your ROM for Metropcs.....very fast....the problems is getting WAP...to work... I can get Google Maps to work....but the rest does not browse or check emails....any advice??
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Read the post above yours. If still not working then you need to try a different Metro PCS PRL. If you messed with any of the settings on my ROM then you have to hard reset. Phone needs activated while unplugged so that means open internet explorer and enter yourtendigitnumber@mymetropcs.com, password metropcs, blank domain, click save password. All done. But like I said make sure all the steps above your post are complete and correct.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] linkinx64:
I have the latest PRL ... should that work? and I deleted the settings no M.IP ... redoing it now :D
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
NO I said if you messed with any of the settings on my ROM. My ROM is not PST settings, PST settings are in a totally different memory region of the phone that a Custom OS ROM doesnt touch. I mean if you messed with any of the MMS or Data Connection settings you would have to hard reset. Hence saying "hard reset if you messed with any of the settings in my ROM"

And I said TRY a different PRL, I didnt say which exact one..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] linkinx64:
OK a little update....I tried running IE and Opera and IT DID NOT WORK....but if i install SkyFire :) which i love ... internet works and i did what u said ..... i did not touch anything....excpect inputting my 10digits and my password :D any advice with GPS?

Installing Google Maps lets see
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] linkinx64:
OK google maps and WAP works :D.....but Gmail email does not ... it gives me a message saying Error Synchronizing :( but I can live with that
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] wagonis:
I know you solved your internet issue with Skyfire, but if you wanted to use IE there is actually a default MetroPCS home page you must have for IE in order for it not to give you an error message. Your IE browser will actually work without this, but you will just have to ignore the error message and try the webpage you are trying to visit again and it will load the 2nd time.

The page is:

http://mpcs.downloads.blue-cdp.com/xhtml/m/100264/1/def/122/0/1/

Ryan, I don't know if you can somehow add this to your Metro cab file, but if it's simple enough it may help some people out. Just a suggestion. :)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] RyanMogul:
Nice! Now there is a real contribution. Thanks wagonis i will be sure to add it to my metro CABs and the ROMs.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] wagonis:
Any time, glad to be of help. :D

tnx. pretty good browser. supports flash video but zooming is not v.smooth.

navigating thru pages is smooth and easy. im keeping this in my x1.

they are improving much faster than Opera.

good browser, but opera still better in most of the parts~
[XPERIA X1 General] Xkan:
I like it. I have to say I like the zoom feature and that that browser doesn't decrease the text width as opera does that the text is large enough to read if you zoomed in. I have play-buttons for flash content but I'm unable to start it...

And the browser seems to be fast and I like that:)
[XPERIA X1 General] mr_sheen:
any screenshot guys? i've downloaded it on my laptop, haven't got a chance to install it
[XPERIA X1 General] Xkan:
I downloaded the version directly over my X1 and installed it on the X1, I think you don't need a computer or laptop to install it.
[XPERIA X1 General] Ride2kmax:
I cant get it to play flash content.
[XPERIA X1 General] Angelusz:
Here, it's as slow as opera and doesn't show flash either. Same story as above, does show the play icon, but no game.

Still hoping for something better!

It looks like that i bricked it.

Here is what I have done.

I used Hard SPL Utility and got it to say 0.72.Olinex

After that I used TouchIT 4.5 to flash it. it went through but after going through calibration it now keeps rebooting. Sony Ericson screen comes on. disapears and reboots.

Please anyone help
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mprielozny:

I just want to tell you that flash hard-spl is something different then flash a rom...

Each one has his own software for flash...

So first is to hard-spl your xperia...

And then i recommend you to flash the rom phone via the microSD

Just rename the touch-it 4.5 to KOVSIM.nbh and put it to the root of the MicroSD..Then restart your phone with Volume down and power button together...And then follow on screen instructions

Note maybe you should try to read this thread, study a little and then flash.....

well I have used the one inlucded in X1_HardSPL_Utility.zip from one of threats here.

then I used the Touch-IT_v4.5.rar

i even tried X1_RUU_ROM_UpdateUtility

dont know what I did wrong.

now it doesnt even power on.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fulgore69:
Satrange i have like 10 times and no problem...

Just pull the battery out try it on again...

Maybe you should download and official rom...or original are the same

The ones ins PavelX1 thread...

And Flash with ones of them via MicroSd...

MicroSd method is much safe than rom update utility...Remember to have at least 50% battery....This is very important..

Dont worry you phone is not broken...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anaadoul:
try flashing using SD card, search the forum for the method

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buzz83:
It won't boot without the battery no matter what you try.

Leave the phone on charge overnight then try flashing a new rom using the SD method.

Did you make sure you had a decent battery level (>50%) before you started flashing your rom??
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mprielozny:
it had 100% it flashed and I even calibrated the screen on reboot. but after that it started rebooting continuosly. I dont know if it juiced it out. well I will leave it on charge for some time to see if that helps.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fulgore69:
Maybe try to recharged it?????

Mybe battery is empty

It may sound like a joke but charged the phone...?

Does it make something when you connected to the wall charger?

If so wait until it recharges about 4 hours and then try it again...

If it flashes then your xperia is not broken....

Some others users have this same issue with that rom...

So maybe try and official rom trust me flash it via microSD method always

Rename the official rom to KOVSIMG.nbh and the copy to the root of the microSD memory
