Hi,

it does work sometimes..after a hard reset wifi settings turn out in connections folder but after a reset that one turns as a networkcards link.. :(
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kalpeshmist:
for running wifi:

go to comm mgr --> menu--> wifi settings OR start menu--> settings--> connections--> wifi(or network card)

in network adapters tab edit 'ASUS 802.11b+g Wireless Card'.. use specific ip address (eg. 192.168.2.1) with subnet mask 255.255.255.0

press ok till homescreen. soft reset.. now wifi shud work properly.. it works properly in mine. i just want to hear from all you guys.. pls comment if this tweak works.

idawn, i appreciate ur indulgence in getting wifi work

note** whenever u start ur device wifi tab takes 15 to 20 seconds to appear in the comm mgr..

Phone service loosing connection

So is nobody else experiencing the problem where when the phone comes out of sleep, it momentarily disconnects and reconnects with the phone service? sometimes (like right now) mine doesn't even reconnect at all
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kalpeshmist:
phone service doesnt loose connection after sleep mode. when u wakeup ur device, u see the phone service disconnects and reconnects again.. actually it doesnt disconnect at all. it shows the process of losing and reconnecting the phone service while the device was in sleep mode. so it doesnt mean that ur device lose connection after sleep mode.

windows mobile network has always been instable for many devices. sometimes u go through an area where network does not exist (eg. i always experience in my building's elevator) the device doesnt search for the network, though it shows a kind of process on the taskbar, and doesnt reconnects until u make a soft reset or turn the phone tab off n on from comm mgr...

am trying to cook my own rom now, but i needed some help.

i have followed your advice, and loaded the kitchen.

i am using the following

wm6-5-21232-lang0409-dpi96-dump-and-xip.

i have copied the xip.bin to the xip folder,and copied the sys folder from the above dump.

copied the os.nb.payload to the rom folder

when i run build-os the process stops in the oem folder stating that a link file is supposed to be a folder, not a file...

any ideas?

and are my steps correct....????

also if i dont want windows live can i remove that from the sys folder?

Update 1: Tried flashing via ActiveSync again, did hard reset, still didn't work. Going to try SD Card method now.

Update 2: Flashed EXTROM.nb0 and GSM.dio.nb0 with flash.dio.nb0 via SD Card. First boot is taking quite awhile now, i've been looking at the 'WM6.5' screen for over a minute.

Hi,

Thankx for the Roms they are working just great however there are som bugs in it. This is just to bring them to your kind notice so that u can fix them in your next version.

1. In WM6.5 Build 23016 with Touchflo 2d and Without Touchflo 2d, some of the Icons are all Distorted, looks like blasted images. if you could make the icons nice and sharp just like other WM6.5 icons it would look Just great.

2. In the same build When you click on Power settings it will open mode switcher settings and when you click on Mode Switcher settings it will open power settings.

3. when the Touchflo is on the number Pad doesnt work to directly type and dial the number, instead we have to press the answer button and then type the number and dial.

I am really thankful to you for these great Roms.

Could you please tell me if Asus is going to give the WM6.5 update to P527 users?

Thanx
