Calendar seems to work? I can't find any posts on this message board at least about it being an issue?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Snickolaz:
A couple things I've noticed so far.

- When I try to set the Buttons all I see is Button and Assignment and can't scoll and see anything else.

- Same thing as with the Button Assignment except when browsing for a background picture.

- Browsed to a picture file and clicked it to open it then I get an error.

"The file "filename" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem blah blah blah...

Other than those couple things it's looking pretty good.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Snickolaz:
I just noticed something new I never saw before. I found it by accident and not sure who knows it's there or not. But when you click the bar up top where the signal and stuff is. A little pop down menu shows up, there's like 4 different things on it. Just wondering how or if I can add to it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] BWheezy:
All the newer branch versions of WM6.5 have this, though this install is missing the images to make it work with the vga patch installed, which kind of sucks. 23028 I think was the last one that worked with epixvga. As for your previous post, epixvga fixes the display issues, the picture thing may be lack of a photo viewer.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] acabtp:
That's TitaniumWeather, correct? I created updated files to make that work and look good on 320x320 screen, as well as lower case everything to match the default 6.5 styling. Check out the TitaniumWeather thread in a day or two to download them for yourself.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] midnightblade:
I'm currently using 23052 and it's awesome so far. I tried using EpixVGA but it just doesn't look that good. Some of the icons in the start menu look better than others. Things like the big options in the wireless selection are still big but definitely usable. It seems to run quite smoothly so far and I've been reinstalling my applications without too much problem. I was getting a graphical anomaly in the center of my screen where the spinning busy thing would spin but that seems to be gone. It started showing up after I installed EpixVGA and was still there even when I removed it so I did a hard reset and everything is fine now.

Thanks for all your hardwork Trashcan!

Oh and the mouse seems to work well too if anyone wanted to use that.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pulsorock:

Mms not working

Hey after like 2 hours I fixed my MMS if anyone has any problems try these settings

Go to your text messages and click the notepad paper next to the X button, scroll down until you get to MMS options

Gateway - wireless.cingular.com

Port - 80

Server address - http://mmsc.cingular.com

Connect via - MY ISP

Send limit 300K

WAP Version 2.0

MY ISP SETTINGS

Click start, settings, connections, and connections again (yes)

Click Manage existing connections

I made a new one called AT&T Media Net

Under general I named it MY ISP...If you change the name make sure to change the connect VIA part in MMS settings to the new name.

If you have any questions feel free to ask! Thanks guys. Anyone resolve the picture issue where it gives the error about certificates?

Menu/List Entry Padding

When using 23052, a lot of the menu items/etc have extra padding on them. I've identified the registry entries that control this for the popup menu, and for the listviews used in the messaging (email/text messages) application and other places. Applying the following registry changes will allow you to see more emails listed at once, see more files in the file explorer, and see more menu items in the popup menus.

Change the following registry keys to make the entries in menus skinnier:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Menu\MenuSelectorThemeImageBottomPadding

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\Menu\MenuSelectorThemeImageTopPadding

Original value: 24

Change to: 4 (adjust to your own preferences)

Change the following registry keys to make the entries in the messaging app/etc skinnier:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\ListView\ListViewSelectorThemeImageBottomPadding

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Today\ListView\ListViewSelectorThemeImageTopPadding

Original value: 24

Change to: 4 (adjust to your own preferences)

There are a lot of different keys in these areas relating to padding - make sure you are changing the top and bottom padding for the "Selector" items specifically. "HKCU" Refers to HKEY_CURRENT_USER.

Note that you will need to change these any time you switch between the themes provided in the rom.

Can't find Epix Windows Mobile 6.5 Rom?

Ok, I am new to this so bare with me.

I have been trying to download, what I think is the latest rom by TrashCan, but when I click on the link to try and download it takes me to RapidShare and then it says something about violations and that the file has been removed.

Can some one please send me the Latest rom for vista with instructions? I am totally new to this so the more detailed instruction the better.

And with the latest rom do I have to download any other software to help it program my phone? I have been reading allot, and I think it has confused me more then anything.:confused:

Thanks you All and have a great day!

That's the newest and the link still works, 23017 is probably still the BEST for someone who wants a plug n play ROM though. The 23017s have been knocked off by Rapid Share (they've been taking down WinMo6.5 ROMs for a while now). Other than the rom you just need USDL Grand Prix for Vista, instructions should be in this thread.

Since there's no image viewer included in this ROM, what viewer do you guys recommend to download?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gogetrunkan:
To get the "Owner Information" Setting to show up again under "personal", you have to do a registry hack. Using PHM Registry Editor or equilvalent, you must go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Owner], and Remove the "redirect" value and reboot the phone. "Owner Information" should show up again.

If anyone was missing the "Input" setting too, just do the same thing to the [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Input] key.

I get a little box while using the mouse not d-pad

I like using the mouse but I get a little box (corruption if you will) whe using it. How can I get rid off it? I have used bwheezy's fix, but I get a message evrytime I turn on the phone saying that the file cannot be opened or something.

Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] BWheezy:
The fix i posted only works in D pad mode, the mouse cursor itself is what causes the corruption. If you decide to use D pad mode you need to install mortscript for pocketpc and then make a shortcut to the mscr file in windows/start up/
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cherrybombaz:
Thanks for the helpful registry edit.

I've also been having problems changing the sip with the new rom. I installed null keyboard, but whenever I try to select it, it goes back to the normal sip.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] technode:
To disable the SIP completely, change the following registry keys:

in HKCU\ControlPanel\Sip:

AllowChange to 0

TurnOffAutoDeploy to 1

DragStyle to 1

I extracted these registry settings from the epix performance cab at epixwiki.com. I don't know if the rest of the tweaks bundled in this cab are safe for these wm 6.5 builds or not.

Note that your SIP will not be available at all, I.E. clicking on the keyboard icon will not bring up anything. At least for me...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hizhonor:
I'll admit I'm not as expert as most of the users that frequent these boards, but I'm having trouble finding these parameters to modify.

I've used both PHM RegEdit as well as CeRegEditor and neither will present anything other than "CutCopyPasteControl" and "Keys" when drilling down through the tree.

I've been able to disable the SIP and open up Owner Info as described elsewhere in this thread so I don't think it's a "following the instructions problem" , but I'm at a loss with attempting to adjust the padding issue.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Any one know what build of Windows Mobile 6.5 is going to be officially released for the Epix by Microsoft?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] BWheezy:
Microsoft has nothing to do with the when, Samsung is responsible for porting the OS to work on their device. I've never seen a "release date" from Samsung until the last second on phone updates, and I haven't seen one so far for anything. I could care less about them releasing WM6.5 if they just would release a damn phone rom that doesnt have the GPS/device.exe problem. Everything else can be fixed by enterprising chefs like Trashcan.

hi ive tried to edit the values you said to in the registry to change the padding but its not updating the images on the phone but it says it is changed in the registry file. I'm using ceregistryeditor. I've restarted my phone after making the changes and the registry stays as i changed it but no change on the phone itself can you let me know what im doing wrong or if i should use a different editor

edit: nevermind i was looking at the wrong item that i changed
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pulsorock:
Talking about this topic of the "extra padding" the items and menus have.

Overall I like this new build and the features it add, but are specifically those extra large menus, items lists and large font sizes that are "too large" for my taste. Afterall.... I rarely use the touch for selecting menus or items... I mostly use the 4-way navigator pad, I use the touch for scrolling mostly.

It would be possible to reduce these large texts and menus via the registry? Or maybe create a .cab with all these registry changes needed for a smaller font/list/menu size, like the previous versions of this rom. This way people that like smaller menus, could choose it instead of the large defaults.

218xx = COM2, continuing dev of 6.5.0.50

219xx = MD, feature branch (unstable features are added here, backported to 218xx - this tree is based on COM1, so older base os code, but the UX code is newer [user experience])

22xxx = SEMC sony ericsson

234xx = COM4, continuing development of 6.5.1

236xx = LG Electronics

Downloaded and installed 23052 w/o any problems. Icons and buttons look much nicer! More contrast, crisper. Almost panicked when I could not find Windows Media Player, but found it in the Windows directory using File Explorer and copied it to the Start Menu directory so it's available. (Kinoma is better but the free version won't play windows media files, which I use.) Mouse cursor still leaves a screen distortion, hope that gets ironed out in the official Samsung update, although we'll see if they do as good a job as trashcan. The whole UX is more thumbable, don't have to use the mouse or stylus much at all now. If only I could download Zune music to it...

These 6.5 ROMs have totally changed my perception of this phone. And the MS app store opens in about a week, even better. THANK YOU TRASHCAN!

Liking 23052

I've been running 23052 for about 4 days. The phone is much more touch friendly.

A couple bugs to report.

In previous roms I had on this phone, pressing and holding the AT@T world key, 2nd from left bottom row, would launch the voice command app. Simple enough to remap right? I went to the buttons settings to try and set it up but the view is a bit to large and you can see any of the buttons or scroll this list. I did manage to get voice command on the button using the scroll pad and guessing what button I was mapping.

The rom is a little slower than 23017.

I'm having some problems opening email atatchments, PDF specifically.

Very happy overall. Thanks TC for your efforts.

I dunno, I used to use those on my Tilt and tried them out on the Epix before we had a 6.5 ROM... I don't know why anyone would want to add those bloatware to their phone. The 6.5 interface makes up for the lack of "slickness" which manila2d or spb3 used to be useful to add. I just add TitaniumWeather and call it a day now, and am much happier with the responsiveness of the phone for it.

I've been playing with 23052 on my Epix a little over a week now and am very pleased with what I see. Thanks for all the work on this advance peek of 6.5.

It's not without some challenges, however. Aside from the previously mentioned corrupted sound files (ringtones) and the phone randomly going silent of all sounds, has anyone else noticed issues with sounds and notifications?

I normally have a tone set for incoming mail, txt msgs, missed calls and reminders. However, I would experience fairly consistent lockups that seem to coincide with the arrival of the tone or pop up associated with the event. Removing the tone selection and pop up alert from all but the txt message and the lock ups have gone away.

Likewise, walking through the various choices of sounds will inevitable lead to a hung device. The lockup occurs most frequently when testing a non-stock tone that was added (and functioned normally under 6.1).

And now, for instance, just leaving the sound and notification app open while researching the issues I'm was just typing about (about 5 mins), has led to one of these lock up conditions --excuse me while I attempt to power cycle or yank my battery. (power cycling worked this time)

I'm not complaining, mind you, just wanting to see if I'm alone with this issue and hope the feedback will help with the next cooked ROM. I'll just stay away from changing these settings once I find something that works. Not a bad trade off for having the opportunity to play with what's next for this phone.

Again, thanks for all your hard work.

hiz honor

hey ive been having some silence problems as well on the new 6.5 cooked ROM build 23052 .. i make sure that i set tones for new txt messages and new emails. and when ever i recieve a new txt or email. none of the sounds play at all.. the only sound that plays is when someone calls me. oh and it also does not vibrate when i get a new txt or email when i specifically put it on vibrate. and i have another BIG problem. the WHOLE MMS section of this cooked ROM does not work at all. when ever i get an mms, i click on "download" and then like 10 mins. later it sais that i was unable to recieve the message and the notification stays there all the time and i can not dismiss it. it is very annoying because i want to see the MMS when i get it. i want to know if anyone else is having this problem because it is very annoying. and on the official version of windows mobile 6.1 on my epix. the mms section of the phone worked very well. when i clicked download it would put up a little satus symbol on the top. and less than a minute later the message would download and i was able to see the picture or whatever was in the mms. but for this cooked rom. i cannot recieve or send mms. whenever i try to do send an mms. i would always be in the out box... i would even sometimes wait a couple hours and it still wouldnt send. and eventually i would just terminate the mms. but yes if anyone knows a solution i would be very happy. because i have been getting a bunch of mms from people and i couldnt look at anything that was inside the mms. soo if trashcan or anybody has the problem or knows a solution...reply to this thread asap... i will be very happy. and yes overall i love this new cooked rom. thnx trash can... :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hizhonor:
The MMS issues are most likely due to your MMS options being wiped out with the new ROM. That bit me as well. Not entirely unexpected when doing this type of experimenting. Go into SMS/MMS hit the menu and choose MMS options. Look specifically under the server tab and odds are you'll only see the sample server example.

Search a bit earlier in this thread for the information that's missing, or google for the MMS setting used by your carrier.

Just wondering any eta for the offical ROM update? In the last two months I have gone form like 200-300min a month to over 2200 min a month. I am a little warry on doing a unoffical rom.

From reading since I do not have a ID1 update the only issue I am having right now is the slug dump about once a week. It does not seem like I am in too bad of shape to wait a litte longer. If a offical update does not come out I want to try the unoffical.
