Please what is the icon of the PDA for charging icon? Thanks Olda ;)
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
oh that is of a program mymobiler(which i used to click screenshots)
[HTC Vox] adeadpoem:
link does not work.
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
link is coming soon
[HTC Vox] hashtowent:
does it have lagging when not finding network like frh wm6.5 beta rom?
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
it should not be, because i have replaced most of the oem folders with the ones present in the original rom..yet you must wait about 2 secs after you soft reset

Download link coming in about 15mins hopefully..you can test it and let me know
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
download link is up..please test and report bugs!
[HTC Vox] CageHN:
Does it include PIMBackup?
[HTC Vox] adeadpoem:

[HTC Vox] deuse:
I will give it a shot..is there any chance of a weather app?

thanks for the rom..

Well my S710 is stuck at the " Loading config operater txt for 10 mins now..

shall I leave it or?

OK its started now pewww Just let people know it has taken about 10+ mins before it

starts doing the cold-config....

Mine is still doing the Cold boot config process....its taking a long time
[HTC Vox] maymaymay:
1. Sound settings, at ringtone change - "The settings could not be saved"

2. There is a Windows icon "Getting Started" in main manu.

3. long press for Bluetooth - Wifi on/off don't work - ok, now is working, you have to install it from "Expert" menu

4. Menu is hanging up
[HTC Vox] deuse:
I have the same problems as well and I cant find Clear storage app

which I would like...

It takes a very long time to install from cold boot

maybe more testing your end would be good :)
[HTC Vox] iamcrazi:
Thinking of upgrading ROM

Hey guys

I'm still stuck with the stock ROM on my Vox. Got too much content on my phone and didn't want to bother reinstalling so many apps and stuff again.

Now I'm seriously considering upgrading to 6.5 in the imminent summer holidays.

Anyone have any opinions on this? Worth it? Not worth it? No difference really?

The most important things to me really is Windows Live messenger. Another thing i MUST have is numerous calendar entries on homescreen all the time (lovin using "CBreminder plugin" at the moment with Grass skin2).

I've been through the forum posts and found quite a few people talking about improvements and how much better these roms are. What are the major changes that would make it worth it?

I'd appreciate any input from you guys.
[HTC Vox] deuse:
Not worth it yet as it still has bugs..

I would hold off for a week or so..I am back on Snap 1.4 now

and I wont be touching a new 6.5 rom till its out of beta form
[HTC Vox] iamcrazi:
Hmmm....might just do that. Thanks.

I presume I can download Windows Live messenger separately and install it.

But does anyone have any idea if CBreminder plugin would work in the newer roms?

Would these work: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=371559&highlight=grassskin
[HTC Vox] deuse:
Nver tried them mate..sorry.

Windows live works a treat on...the weather app is great..try it :)

BUT follow the the info..
[HTC Vox] cq914:
Sorry for my newbie question but why the windows Live have been removed from these ROM's plus how to reinstall it...... another question do these ROM enable the VoIP functionality on a stock HTC S710
[HTC Vox] tobbbie:
CBReminder was recently adapted to work with WM5+ ROMs. No clue if it works with 6.5, just install and try it out. Too bad that CBReminder is hogging the CPU every minute, so I removed it again on my WM6 device (after telling the author). No Update since then though :-(.
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
So there are the following bugs till now..right?

1. Sound settings, at ringtone change - "The settings could not be saved"

2. There is a Windows icon "Getting Started" in main manu

3. Clear storage app

4. Internet Explorer pointer

Thanks guys for testing my rom!
[HTC Vox] maymaymay:
1. Sound settings, at ringtone change - "The settings could not be saved" - YES

2. There is a Windows icon "Getting Started" in main manu - there was in Recent Programs, after few minutes of useing...gone, so there is no bug

3. Clear storage app - YES

4. Internet Explorer pointer - YES

5. "Activate Volume" - we can find in All Programs and All Programs/Expert
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
hey, thanks for the confirmation.

i ll see if i can fix them all..hope so!

is there anything else i can add in the release?
[HTC Vox] maymaymay:
I think:

1. Call recording should be already in ROM, not in .cab file.

2. Total CMD as everyone use it.

3. Maybe something like - http://www.dewantoro.net/2008/09/12/batti-v24-pocket-pc-battery-information-status-information/ ?

4. IE trash on eg. Storage Card/temp/IE tweak

5. Hide SIM contacts tweak

6. Maybe Keylock as a XIP (for low/none memory usage), but not activated, as not everyone use it.

7. Oxios Memmory ?

8. Change Task Manager to CeleTask and map to Long Home, or just map Task Manager to Long Home.
[HTC Vox] brutus_21in:
Regarding Ringtone error

Hey Pal,

Please try to fix this as its frustrating to not be able to change the ring tone.

Plzzzzzzzzzz give some tips.

Regards,

brut
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
@maymaymay

i ll try and include most of it

@brutus_21in

im working on that!
[HTC Vox] oldasuk:
What program you use on the Call Recording? Thanks and Hi Olda ;)
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
i have just put a reg tweak in the rom which gets activated on running the activate recording shortcut from the expert folder

after this any sound recording program will record both sides of the conversation

i use livepvr(check the attachment..its a trial though)
[HTC Vox] maymaymay:
to be precise - this one - http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-vistahide-battery-gauge-v1-1-1.html

8. Change Task Manager to CeleTask and map to Long Home, or just map Task Manager to Long Home.
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
mostly my rom with all known bugs fixed and with added packages coming today

Still cant get the ringtone bug fixed..any ideas?
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
celetask is not a freeware..right?

that means i cannot use it
[HTC Vox] TheBo:
IF I ' m not wrong version 2.0 should be freeware...only latest versions are NOT.
[HTC Vox] billapannu:
again wi

no pie mouse pointer without this useless so fix this problem
[HTC Vox] TheBo:
You already pointed out this thing
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
yup, absolutely right!

just got it..thanks!
[HTC Vox] bozhinov79:
Let us leave people say what they want and what they have to say. It is the main purpose of the forums, right?
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
I would suggest that you go ahead and dump the emulator image and use all of the *.cpl.xml files from the OEMMisc folder instead of the ones that you got from my ROM!!
[HTC Vox] TheBo:
Surely, but keeping saying the same thing in every WM 6.5 ROM topic it's not helping the rom chief...on the contrary saying it in that way...it's like an order! ALso written twice! People here do what they do for passion and they do not this for job... so I don 't think rom cooker like FH or mrushabh like to receive ORDER by people saying that what they have done is USELESS untill they DO what someone is asking for.

If I said something stupid or pointless....let me know.

My apologize if I may have been to strong.
[HTC Vox] bozhinov79:
Well, nothing serious, but we cannot restrict people on forums what to say, that's the matter.

You are absolutely right that these guys here try their best to help us and they definitely do help us. They are who do the work that HTC has not done in the way we would like. I really like what they do and would never say a bad word to such people. NOBODY could give ORDERS, that's clear.

If someone thinks something could be done better is free to try his best and do it.

Thanks to the cookers for sharing their ROMs with us!
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
i just did that so many times..

infact i even tried replacing the files with your snap rom, firebured's rom etc..but no hope!..

btw..i aldready owe you a huge thanks for your great rom!
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
totally agree with you..
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
I don't have this problem, just use the whole OEM Misc folder from the 6.5 dump (not from my 6.5 ROM)!
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
i tried it but i ll try it again now..thanks!
[HTC Vox] TheBo:
I've seen on a Tornado subtopic that MAYBE there's a Kitchen for WM 6.5...I have no idea...in a post there are some links putted there with no explaination...

HAs someone tried them? I'm pretty sure you did, but Maybe there could be something usefull?

Oh and just another thing...originally znial made us know this...thing created by rickwyatt but I can confirm this thing works

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=525267
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
Mh once the ROM is somewhat stable (it actually is pretty stable already) I will release the folders. You can simply use my kitchen then!

Oh and this home screen design probably doesn't work on the Vox when you slide it open!
[HTC Vox] TheBo:
Mmm You mean in landscape?

If you mean that...It has a minor issue on the clock

as you can see

P.S: Yeah I think it's pretty stable too!
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
Oh it is working in landscape, I didn't expect this :D

Well, everybody is free to install this. I am not changing my ROM to look like that (yet :))
[HTC Vox] TheBo:
Surely! I was just making a point.

And of course I would use your kitchen...I have to make the italian version of your rom...not for me..as I said english is more quick...butfor some friends.

I need to search on how to extract muis from the emu.

At least that I have to do on my own...:p
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
You can dump the emulator with my kitchen too! :)

And then just get all the 0410 folders (Italian) and put them in the SYS/OEM folder!

But you have to wait until I update the kitchen folders!
[HTC Vox] billapannu:
sorry

sorry my word usless i really sorry for that :( you work hard for this rom i put this rom in my phone for only for pie which very disppointed me anyway thanks for this roms
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
no problems about it now..just forget about it and continue reporting bugs!..i ll be uploading my new rom shortly!
[HTC Vox] billapannu:
thanks thanks

thanks very much know i never post this type of word which hurt to other feelings
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
download link for version 2 coming shortly(mostly tom morning)!

please check 1st post with the changelog and let me know if anyone wants anything else changed!..
[HTC Vox] hhs6789:
Dark Black Theme

I was wondering can we get the dark black theme from WM6.5 to work on WM6.1

I mean that two bars in dark black on the top (on with range & battery Icon are there) and the bottom (on which start & contacts is written)
[HTC Vox] frauhottelmann:
Soince you added it, does Skybox work? It always closed right after I opened it in my first beta ROM! I decided, that everybody could get it from myphone.microsoft.com if he/she wants it! And Skymarket is only a link anyway!
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
skybox works perfectly and skymarket keeps saying could not connect..dont know if its a internet problem..
[HTC Vox] panic_4_what@hotmail.com:
HI,

Great going! Mehta Sb.

still waiting for your given link to be alive.:confused:
[HTC Vox] deuse:
I will try V2 now and see whats what..

Does anyone know of a weather app that will work on this rom please..
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
V2 link posted!..please test
[HTC Vox] bozhinov79:
WorldMate works great for me,but I do not use the sliding panels.
[HTC Vox] deuse:
Thanks for the info ;)

I use sliding panels and I have tried feather weather(maybe he will do a update)

and HTC weather both dont work.

Just downloading V2 now.

Ok i FLASHED the phone lets see how long it takes to install..time 11.39am GMT

I really like the.... WelCome screen :)
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
i presume cold boot it 50 percent now..right?
[HTC Vox] deuse:
Cold boot is at about 80% I would say looking at the blue bar at the bottom.

Installing reg tweaks now..

LOL still doing the cold boot
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
thats weird cause after 80% it should jump to 100%..

let me know when its done!
[HTC Vox] deuse:
OK its just re-booted

The phone is OFF when it re-booted and so far there is still the " getting started " icon that comes up with a error when started.

Blue tooth and wifi are on by default have now switch the phone on and BT and wifi off.

Another error when you go into settings/Connectios/USB to PC it cant get the control panel xml( some people need this to be able to sync)

I am just trying the Clear storage now..well that was fast...looks like thats ok..

But I think you need to go through every option in the phone before puttig a new one up.
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
1)getting started-it goes after a while so its ok

2)Blue tooth and wifi are on by default have now switch the phone on and BT and wifi off.-didnt happen to me and its ok as long it switched off

3)Another error when you go into settings/Connectios/USB to PC it cant get the control panel xml-verified, and fixed(download the attachment,extract, and paste it onto the windows folder

how is it other than that?
[HTC Vox] deuse:
I have just had to take the batt out the phone as when I tried to get into settings

it locked up.maybe just a glitch on my part..

other then that all ok and looking good..

Yep It wont let me go into connections now..so I got to reflash..I dont like flashing this much mate

I only got the 1 phone..so I think you got a lot of testing to do.

but all in all and nice rom
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
wait dont flash..check the post above!..for the connections
[HTC Vox] deuse:
OK will try the fix now..

I have tried to get Favorits on the home screen using Chome config but it wont show up.

OK that fix worked :)

The fix did not work after all..I had to reset and tried to get into connections and it froz.

also when I tried to get my contacts off my sim I got an error Then I tried to reboot and it frozz

Sorry dude I cant test any more I need my phone as it the only one I got.

I hope you do get these things done and test ALL options in the phone before your next rom.
[HTC Vox] deuse:
I just found another one before I reflashed..when you stnc and start windows media play the phone

frozz..i had to take the batt out..
[HTC Vox] maymaymay:
Rapid mirror - http://rapidshare.com/files/244076537/Custom6.5_V2.rar
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
@maymaymay

most of the bugs and the apps you mentioned are fixed..hope you like it!
[HTC Vox] deuse:
Is the sim manager/contacts fixed

also are the Favorites on the home screen or any other option through Chome config fixed..and saveing the sounds?
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
nothing is changed after you tested..

i just told maymaymay that the bugs in the v1 were fixed

i m working on them and will release v3 after everything is fixed
[HTC Vox] deuse:
Ok ..

I know it takes up a lot of your time and I hope you get this rom sorted. :)
[HTC Vox] maymaymay:
...reverted to old pie(due to cursor problem)

removed wm6pro menu(install the attached file)

removed wmwidgets...

:(

So, step by step we are back to WM6.1
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
nope wmwidgets dont work but i ll try to incluude in the next

wm pro menus makes it lag so i m working on it

and 6.5 sys is much better than 6.1..so even if on the face it looks as though there is no diff. there is lots

btw i included most of what you mention in this rom
[HTC Vox] maymaymay:
1. CeleTask still don't work after Long press Home

2. myphone - unable to connect
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
celetask not mapped for long home as it makes the short home action slow..just present in the rom

it connects with activesync-tested-verified
[HTC Vox] maymaymay:
For ActiveSync we have MSOutlook ;)

Anyway, there was an update of MyPhone and now is connecting by EDGE :D :)

@mrushab

You could update MyPhone in ROM in the next release

There is something wrong with CommMnager, is hanging, it can't open. I can't close GPRS connection then.

Volume Control (BT/Wifi) installed and don't work.

So CommManager and VOLControl not working - we can't use Wifi and BT then.

I'm back to V1 ROM
[HTC Vox] panic_4_what@hotmail.com:
HI mrushabh,

Mr.deuse is quite right. I am facing the same problem.

As We know that cooking a rom is not an easy task.

Do Hope V3 will minimize all known problems till yet.

:cool:
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
Hi,

yup sure i can try and fix the problems..is it possible for you to report all the bugs in detail..thanks!

p.s.i think its time i cook from scratch!..
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
yea!!..most of the bugs are getting solved

i started from scratch and now the ringtone,the comm manager and many more apps work..

only the volume control dosnt work..the keys only freeze the device..any ideas?
[HTC Vox] panic_4_what@hotmail.com:
HI,

It is requested to check the functionality carefully.

Bugs found at my phone using v2 6.5

1- vox cannot be connected with PC(Means No Active Synic )

2-Common manager does not function well( I am trying to off wifi since more then 5 minutes and still goes on..)

3- HTC Audio manager Hang vox( one has to restart it)

4-Changing ring tone is still tricky( From V1 which is surprising )

5-I am unable to check more function fearing of restarting vox.

I left with two choices.

a- jump to any previous ROM.

b- i must be very polite to my vox( means don't do any thing untill next ver or something better occur)

Wishing you good luck for better ROM or Emulator(whatever..)
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
thanks alot for the list as well as the luck:)..i ll consider each and every point you've listed
[HTC Vox] hhs6789:
is it possible?????
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
yup it is..

i dont remember but i think fireburned had it in his clean custom rom
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
i got everything but the bluetooth fixed..someone help!
[HTC Vox] htckiller:
dutch wm6.5

can you make this rom in dutch
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
once the rom in english is stable i may think about it!..

But its a very difficult task as i dont know dutch!
[HTC Vox] mohammad_es7:
active sync prob.

i can't connect my phone via active sync. it hangs (event after using the usb to pc zip file and uncheck that thing in settings)

what to do?
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
i am aware of that problem and will be releasing a V3 rom with most of the fixes
[HTC Vox] mohammad_es7:
aha thanks,

i thought, it should solve after unchecking the mentioned setting.

:)
[HTC Vox] Rolandh:
Love this ROM, pitty that you can not change ringtones and properly set USB connectivity yet and the lack of PIE6 and MSwidgets is a shame. This is the first cooked ROM that I have tried that has actually got working SD Card encryption. I would also love to see a ROM that has got Welcome Centre included, as it's not been included in any ROMs since the early WM6.1 ROMs. Keep up the good work and I can not wait to see V3.

Roland
[HTC Vox] htckiller:
when next rom ????????????????????

when do you think you next rom is finishen
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
V3 will be coming as soon as the comm manager is fixed permanently..

all other known bugs fixed and tested
[HTC Vox] mohammad_es7:
i don't know if you noticed new wm 6.5 rel in "smartphone general", but here it is:

Smartphone - WM 6.5 Build 21812 - Lang[0409] DPI[131] RESH[320] RESV[240] DUMP

http://rapidshare.com/files/24420559...V-240-DUMP.rar
[HTC Vox] mrushabh:
yeah!..i am aware about that..anyways thanks

P.S.i dropped my vox and it no longer works..dont think i l be able to make a new V3 rom before the surgery..:(
[HTC Vox] mohammad_es7:
...and we are completely f***ed!
[HTC Vox] cd993:
Has anyone managed to get a weather application working that is located in the sliding panel along with the clock and displays weather icons as well as current info displayed in Celsius?

Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help out!
[HTC Vox] CageHN:
Please stop spamming the question in every topic. Thank you.
[HTC Vox] mohammad_es7:
so... how to flash another rom with activesync prob? :)
[HTC Vox] panic_4_what@hotmail.com:
1-Turn Off the vox.

2-press camera button.

3-insert usb cable attached with PC(while pressing camera button).

4- Flash any ROM you like.
[HTC Vox] TheBo:
it is also described in the Wiki.
[HTC Vox] FernandoFerraz:
Does it works in a Ciphone (C6, CPU Samsung 450mhz)???Tnks
[HTC Vox] cd993:
apologies for my posts, I have managed to get a few working but still nothing perfect, theres alot more to this than meets the eye! My respect goes to the people who are know their stuff well enough to know what they are doing!

keep up the good work!
[HTC Vox] scandalous:
There is nothing called "meet the eyes" in this forum. Virtual only.
[HTC Vox] cd993:
I was merely stating how there is more to roms i.e. Windows Mobile 6.1 and 6.5 and finding combatible weather applications than 'meets the eyes' as in it is not as simple as one may initially think, a figure of speach if you will! This may well be virtual but finding a compatible weather application with a 6.5 rom for use with my E650 VOX and the difficulites I've encountered have been more than a reality!
[HTC Vox] htckiller:
please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please make this rom dutch

thanks
[HTC Vox] romskii:
some screenshots would be great ;)
