Great work...:)

Only one minor bug: If the "Regional Setting" was changed from English to German and you want to shutdown the device by pressing and holding the "On/Off"-key you see some special characters and also a Greek(?) message below the German one.

Any idea to change the language of this ROM in general into German? Unfortunately I do not have the knowledge to do this...:confused:
[Sable] Flyshy:
Hi all,

First I want to thank keyx for his great work on wm 6.5 build 21234.

But i've got one problem. I also had build 21215 installed and there the problem didn't occur. I have always a cellular network connection with hsdpa and when i first connect to the Network a day, theres no problem. But when the device sleeped maybe 2 hours (standby) and i want to visit a site with internet explorer or want to receive emails the connection is still there (the symbol in the bar is active [H] ) but IE or Outlook can't get data from the network. And then if i turn off the phone (Communication Manager) and restart it again the problem isn't there anymore. Has anyone else this problem here?

Many thanks in advance

Flyshy
[Sable] keyx:
not sure why the text is corrupt when you change the regional setting but it is minor annoyance anyway...

for changing the rom language, there is no simple way other than cooking the rom by replacing english mui with German mui, you may want to look at my kitchen thread for that

hmm i tend to disconnect once i don't use so I never have that happen. May be other user can report.
[Sable] jpmatrix972:
you should use an auto-disconnect tool like GB Tweak Soft or Bandswitch 1.2.3 (freeware).

now i use Bandswitch and i set it to disconnect afet 2mn of idle time

also instead of rebooting the phone, you can just use the disconnect cellular data button or menu of the wireless manager.
[Sable] Flyshy:
Thank you for your suggestions.

You misunderstood me. I didn't reboot the phone ervery time. I always did it with the wireless manager.

And the second thing is, that it seems that the problem went away last night.

Maybe it was only a problem with the network this day.

I will keep you informed about the bug

[Sable] user212:
I have a big problem winth beta 7.01 and the older versions ,but with this one is terrible.After a day use after preflash or a 2-3 clean boots ,the Ipaq 614c is going to unstopeble rotation of soft resets.It's stop when i remove the battery and make a clean boot.Some decision?
[Sable] yoske:
keyx may know answer :D
[Sable] Shmaic:
Hi guys, this 6,5 thing is great. I first thought it is not that good as many people told me, but yesterday i experienced 6,5 (the latest build from this thread) and i have to say it IS great!!

The only thing i cant go through - how do i download google maps using IE? it navigates me as ussual to m.google.com/maps or something, where the download should start, but the thing is that the website thinks I use desktop instead of mobile device and dont let me download the stuff... how do i solve this?

Anyway thanks again for this great improvement for my 614c.
[Sable] jpmatrix972:
just switch IE to mobile mode :

menu/view/mobile ;)
[Sable] Shmaic:
thanks a lot.

when do you think we can expect next build?:) i just love this!!!
[Sable] keyx:
what modal do you have? (612c/614c/ .etc ?)

also OS version and radio firmware?

by unstopeble reboot you mean at which stage it reboot?,1st hp screen/windows screen ?

may be weekend for 21725:)
[Sable] Shmaic:
cool,looking forward:)
[Sable] user212:
I am with ipaq 614c

Hp screen and after him goes to the windows screen and before to go to the today scren,again make soft reset

Before make the update i was with the original ipaq 614c windows mobile 6 profesional.

os - 1.01.04

FW - v0.88

I've made an update with the new Fw-v0.89 from hp but it was the same.So i've made a downgrade to the original ,with the ipaq 614c Rom update(it's update everything.
[Sable] jpmatrix972:
i ve just tried stereo bluetooth with my brand new Samsung sbh650 bluetooth stereo headset and i m surprised to hear that the sound is very bad... i believe it is a 6.5 rom trouble because on my 6.1 roms it was far better...

keyx are you aware of that? can someone else test and report here ?
[Sable] Aavatar:
Hi jpmatrix972, I'm using keyx wm6.5 beta 7.01 21234 on my 612c and bluetooth headset SE HBH-DS970 and it turns out the sound was clear and crispy, I think it's nothing wrong with the bluetooth radio in wm6.5
[Sable] Abba91:
Is anyone going to try to cook one of Keyx's ROMs with Manilla 2D wit the required reg. tweaks?
[Sable] keyx:
21725 up in 1st post, kitchen will follow if no major bug is found
[Sable] user212:
with new beta 8 is still there the problem with unstopable softresets?
[Sable] Abba91:
I just flashed to the latest Beta 8. After i did a factory recovery, everything seems to be working perfectly :D

I attached this Wallpaper cause i think it looks really nice, especially now that the summer is coming :)
[Sable] mrandrewcz:
And have you tried text messaging? If I open it with compose, I get to the selection of accounts. If I select text messaging and then click New nothing happens, same for reply over restored messages ...
[Sable] Shmaic:
i thought i would download the latest rom today but if there is the bug with messages... ?? is there the bug or is it just one person's problem?
[Sable] opensea:
thanks for the new rom
[Sable] opensea:
By the way do anyone know where can i find outlook for WM?
[Sable] keyx:
file pulled for fixing sms bug...

thanks for reporting bug =)
[Sable] Shmaic:
anyway is it really faster? what influents the speed?
[Sable] Abba91:
It doesent feel that much faster, but it's definetly not slower ;)

Will there be a way to fix the sms bug without reflashing? cuz i allready "rebuilt" my phone :(
[Sable] Shmaic:
quick position

keyx: there is one more thing: i used quick position that automatically downloaded the file every 3 days, is it possible to include some auto-download version in your rom? i can send you the cab file for the version of quick position with auto-download if it would help..
[Sable] user212:
Is still there the problem with unstopable soft resets?

???????????
[Sable] Abba91:
I have never had that issue, and this ROM is no different for me. So no, i don't have unstoppable resets.
[Sable] osenevp:
Beta 8 definitely faster than previous version. For instance, when you open an mp3 file from file explorer it begins playing almost instantly vs 3-4 secons on 7.01
[Sable] keyx:
i am not sure if it is an good idea to auto-download, some people prefer not to connect gprs unless they intend to, but you can always post the file here as other users may be interested
[Sable] ikar:
where is link to download ver 21725 Beta 8 WWE ?

Now I see :"Download:

file pulled for fixing sms bug"
[Sable] keyx:
will reupload when sms bug is fixed

EDITED: uploading..
[Sable] keyx:
reuploaded fixed version (8.01)
[Sable] Abba91:
Could you post a CAB with the SMS fix? :)
[Sable] keyx:
o sorry i forgot to reply your last post.

file removed as it doesn't work
[Sable] Abba91:
Yeah, it didn't work. I'll just reflash it then :)
[Sable] keyx:
sorry about that. I am a careless person so these things often happen :( . I suppose you can always wait for other people to try first :p

I have made changes more than just files so just replacing files probably doesn't work.
[Sable] Abba91:
Don't worry about it, you have done so much allready :)

And yeah i usually wait for people to try it first, so this time i thought i should go first for a change :P Anyways, I'm done "rebuilding" it and it works better than ever before, so once again good job :D
[Sable] Shmaic:
GCz

another problem found - using GCz software was ok on 6.1 but now on 6.5 it says when i select the cache "cache not found". weird, but it still switches the gps on so it is half working half not:)
[Sable] osenevp:
Microsoft MyPhone service is able to sync Conatcts, Tasks, Calendar and other stuff (tested on 8.01)
[Sable] keyx:
I tried v 0.2.33.6 and it works fine, may be you are using older version?

I just register an account , hit go, click on one the item and it seems to all work properly.

anyway that is a cool application, for anyone who try it , make sure you enable manage gps automatically which save you the hassle to setup gps

yes I just tried it and works fine. Kinda useful when you flash the rom a lot to save some time to sync through activesync lol
[Sable] jpmatrix972:
PIMbackup is my favourite backup/flash'n'restore tool ;)

anyway i hope there is not a hardware limit in flashing our favourite device ;) and thanks again to keyx ! waiting for the final 6.5 :):)
[Sable] keyx:
well theoretically there is a hardware limit after all rom is really just a flash chip, but if flash properly its life should be really long
[Sable] fatih4179:
there is abug with back speaker in wmp back speaker doesnt work and incoming calls too it doesnt work and media player only play one song each time doesnt keep playing the list:confused: in 80 and 8.1 roms
[Sable] keyx:
backspeaker is fine, wmp has issue with next song, thanks for reporting , looking for solution now
[Sable] osenevp:
Did you try it after clean boot? I hope it won't delete all entries on MyPhone server durinng clean syncing )
[Sable] keyx:
it sync fine after clean boot, work exactly as it suppose to do. Download all contracts back. Anyway 21275 has issue with wmp...if you don't use wmp or the music part of titanium then it's ok. Otherwise stick with 21234 for now
[Sable] osenevp:
Well, WMP seems to me work with no problem. So I'm not going to flash back.
[Sable] keyx:
did you try to play multiple songs? for me it doesn't play the next song, the timer stop at 0:00, i need to stop and play again to make it work

Problem with detecting WIFI

Hi Keyx,

I am new to this forum and I have tried to install WM6.5 on my IPAQ 612. Everything is working well now but I do realise that my phone now have problem detecting WIFI net work? Is this a bug? Are there any ways, I can fix it?

In addition, my hardware keypad now only enter numbers when I am browsing internet. Can I fix this too?

Thanks for sharing.
[Sable] samjeff:
21232 ROM is the best

Dear all,

As my experience, I suggest 21232 ROM. It is the faster ROM and the longest battery.

I used 21234, but sometimes slower and faster battery, so I switch back to 21232 ROM.

Thanks great for keyx...

:-D
[Sable] keyx:
if you are using beat 8, try 21234 or 21232 build. Also what model do you have and os and radio firmware version?

thanks for reporting, i added 21232 in that line too
[Sable] pellepirat:
WMP

Hi!

My WMP is working fine in the 8.01 ROM for me. Synced in 3 songs and they played after each other without the need to manually stop/restart.
[Sable] osenevp:
Hmmm...In WMP I tap menu, then Library, choose song in the list and tap play soft button. WMP plays one song after another as it should. Is it that?
[Sable] fatih4179:
after factory recovery back speaker is fine but wmp still same waiting for solution thanx for your work ;)
[Sable] bungle2k3:
hi key-x , once again great work ... 'you da man!'

but noticed this morning when i had my alarm set that it went into lock screen and I couldnt turn the alarm off ... think this happened in a previous install but the last one it was fine

cheers dude
[Sable] ng zhichao:
Hi,

Thanks for your prompt reply.

If I do understand your question correctly, my phone model is HP IPAQ 612c which previously run on Window Mobile 6. But I have successfully applied the 21275 Beta 8.01 WWE and it now runs on Window Mobile 6.5 but with problem detecting WIFI.

I doubt I have any radio on the phone or do I?

Thanks for your patience.
[Sable] Shmaic:
quick position

to keyx: what about that quick position autodownload?:)
[Sable] dirlan2001:
Hi,

The radio as it is called is in fact a bunch of chips taking care of the wireless options on your phone. WiFi, GPS, GSM etc .. are all radios....

FYI, the latest firmware for your radio should be 0.89

:D

Dirk
[Sable] ng zhichao:
Hi Dirk,

Thanks for your reply. My radio firmware version is 9.70.3.18

How do I make it to 0.89? I understand the official link had been removed by HP. Would appreciate if you able to paste the link or file here.

I have also tried to re-install 21232 Beta 6 WWE but apparently the WIFI still not able to detect the WIFI. Do you have WIFI problem with you IPAQ phone?

Thanks for sharing ('',)
[Sable] keyx:
can you post the file? I don't have such version

by not detecting wifi, do you mean you don't see wifi in the connection manager? Also can you tell me when you first power on your ipaq, on the hp logo screen at the left bottom corner it should show your OS and radio firmware version. Tell me what you see there. To update to 0.89, apply this update, it will make your device factory reset.

------------------------------------------

21725 has too many issue..anyway 21728 is out on 1st post

also I have updated the official link for radio firmware 0.89, for some reason hp changed the link
[Sable] ng zhichao:
Hi,

Thanks for your patience in explaining, the data that was shown at the bottom left when I power on the phone is as follows:

OS - v1.01.04

FW - v0.89

My wireless manager is able to view WIFI but when there are connections avaliable (which can be detected by other PDA phones) but my phone display "unavailable".

I suppose you don't have this problem of WIFI with your HP612?
[Sable] TheLastOne:
Hey keyx,

Great work as always. However, do you mind repacking/uploading Beta 9? When I DL the rar I get CRC errors on extraction.
[Sable] keyx:
I don't have the problem, same os and firmware version. Did you try flashing back to 6.0 or 6.1? Or you can try beta 9. Also is that you can't find wifi network at all?

reuploaded the file, try again:)
[Sable] ng zhichao:
Hi,

I did try the Beta 9 version but it can't detect the WIFI setting as well. Do you mind if you could forward me the flash required for WM 6 and 6.1? I am really desperate to try out all means.

A smart phone without wireless is quite useless.

Thanks alot.
[Sable] keyx:
check your registry, HKLM/Comm/SDIO86861/Wireless is set to 1

for 6.1 ,try this by sergiorus

for 6.0, just flash with hp original rom, you can find it in pdaclan if you don't have it.
[Sable] ng zhichao:
Hi,

Thanks for the advice you have given, I will give it a try. Do you have the link for the WM 6.0 flash? I do have difficulties trying to read chinese characters at pdaclan.

Thanks a million.

Hey keyx, thanks for the DL link fix, great ROM everything works great. I like that you included myPhone or whatever the the heck it's called. Does that come standard with the new builds now?

Keep up the great work, we all very very much appreciate it.
[Sable] JuanDG:
The best build!!!!!

This is THE best WM6.5 build yet. is amazing!!!

I'm very impressed, I've done a lot of testing and is looking very good, is very solid, very fast, very stable. I even noticed more memory available and better overall performance.

I'm almost done rebuilding my system, I'll report back tomorrow on battery life, so far it looks very good. IE Mobile in this build is very improved, the browsing experience is very cool, youtube looks great.

Thanks Keyx!!!!

One more thing, the idea of MyPhone built in the ROM is awesome, was this your idea Keyx or MSFT?
[Sable] bungle2k3:
i wrote something here but i was lying :D

... a simple reset sorted my problem out ..
[Sable] keyx:
yes myphone will come for every new rom I built from now on(unless it does not work lol)

it is MSFT idea, you can read more here and here, myphone(skybox is its package name) always come with the leaked ROM but it is not useable until recently when Microsoft open its access to public. There is also skymart(Marketplace which is iphone-like appstore) but I haven't heard it is opened to public yet so I did not include it in the build

I've just paired Sony BT headphones after 21728 Beta 9 WWE upgrade - everything is OK.
[Sable] osenevp:
By the way, could anyone sugest a backup software for saving WM registry settings such as time zone, date format, alarms and so on? I have to setup those parameters over and over again because of frequent rom upgrades and now I'm already tired.

Thanks.
[Sable] serge612c:
Try Spb backup, it's best.
[Sable] Atlus:
Its safe to backup on WM 6.1 and restore to the new 6.5? :confused:
[Sable] keyx:
not really..you will need to find a registry editor that allow you to export a subset and import it back when you flash to a new rom
[Sable] keyx:
ITA(Italian) rom added to 1st post...see this for pics and detail. I suggest keeping any language-specific issue on that thread instead and keep this for WWE and language-independent issue here since I would probably not maintaining any build other than WWE and CHT in future
[Sable] osenevp:
Spb backup is nice, but is it possible to backup ONLY regisgtry?I really don't want to see current rom's files, pictures & etc. to be restored in to a new upgraded version.
[Sable] serge612c:
I don't know but you can choose parameters of saving. If you want to backup only registry, you can simply copy it with Total Commander and apply after system update.
[Sable] osenevp:
There's no way to choose registry only backup in the Spb backup. I'll copy it with a TC Plugin as you sugested. Hope it will apply back with no problem. Thx.

Please, help

Hello guys.

I need your advice. I have downloaded WM 6.5 ROM for HP IPAQ 614c. I thought it's exe file. But I saw it's different file type.

1. How can I update my IPAQ 614c with this ROM file?

2. After updating to WM 6.5 will it be possible to return again to the current ROM WM 6.0? If yes, how?

3. Do I need make backup? How is possible to take backup?

For information I want to say I have original WM6.0 IPAQ 614c ROM file.

I am looking forward to your explanations. Thanks in advance.
[Sable] serge612c:
See flash instruction in bottom of the first post of this thread.

Yes, if you have WM 6.0 ROM file.

Yes, if you want to save your contacts and over information.

Use any backup program for example Spb backup (the best) or Sprite backup or PIM backup (only for contacts) or another.
[Sable] keyx:
German version added
[Sable] Telephonmann:
Wow, thank you very much for the german version! :)

Of course there is.

Just choose Custom Backup from the start screen, uncheck all but System Data, mark System Data, click Options, and there it is: just check Save Registry...

You can even choose only registry from a full backup when restoring the same way.

Sorry if the entries are named different in reality, I am using the german version of Spb Backup (which saved me so much time so far ;)

Keyx,

Thank you for this WM 6.5 ROM. Well done.

I have found some bugs on 21728 Beta 9 WWE ROM.

1. You were right - modem link is not working second time

2. Bubble game creates error "SHCreateMenuBar Failed" error.

3. File explorer shows Name of files, but sometimes shows name, date, size. If I select View mode "Detail with headers" it's again return to another mode.

If I see extra problems I'll let you know.

Who need can take bubble breaker cab file

I'd like to report some majr problem I faced with the Beta 9 rom. During regular ActiveSync sync with Vista WMDC device starts to work very slow and keep to work this way evrn after soft reset => until youl clean boot it. This is 2nd time the problem appears. Probably it's time to rollback to Beta 7.01.
[Sable] yoske:
again great rom. . . =D
[Sable] B-U-G-A:
I don't have similar problem with Windows XP ActiveSync. Maybe some conflict with Windows Mobile Device centre. If you have possibility check with Win XP.

If device will work normally, then you have to reinstall your computer and change OS to XP (joke) :)

I have met 1 problem that with bluetooth handfree voice when talking phone.

I find that when I using bluetooth handfree (i-tech R35) to talk in phone, the voice I listen and the listener also listen that the voice is very very low, seems can't hear it in clear even change to max. volumn. But listen to music through bluetooth is no any problems and the voice can be very loud and clear.

*** I tried to use this handfree in HP rw6828 with wm6.5 rom no any problems. ***

I have try to rest my handfree already, and I also try to enable Audio > Mic > Enable AGC, then the sound can change to lounder but have so many noisy make I can't hear it in clear.

Really need your help. Just want to know if you have any idea or solution can fix it?

Any brother have met the same issue like me?

Again keyx....Many Many Thanks for your kindly help ...!!!
[Sable] stemaju:
I'm also really impressed about this excellent --keyx-- job. I installed the german 6.5 rom today. Stable, no functional problems!!!

Only the BT sound issue was also on my side. I tried different BT headsets, it's allways the same -> noisy and very low. Would be great if anyone can fix this prob. like xj_jacky described before.
[Sable] jjiacobuta:
great job keys!!!!

I didn't restarted for 3 days and it works great.

I installed IGo 8 successful. It works after i set GPS soft on com6

and hard on com8. The sensibility of GPS is a problem, it works only outside.

If somebody doesn't understand well micro SDHC card don't works on boot loader.

I make this mistake by myself . 2 Gb Kinston and Kingmax microSD are compatible with device.

I still test beta 9. No problem.

The phone must be off to enter bootloader, I think the battery must be over 50%. Also take your time when pressing the keys - no need to rush. I don't know any other way.
