ALT keys dont work

Let me explain what I mean by they're not working. In text messaging and most standard places (email, contact list, sms/mms) they work just fine. In some places they don't however. ALT+[any] combinations don't work in Skyfire or Google Maps. Other places may have the same problem but I don't know where else, yet. I tried switching to UK keymap and it didn't help. Please advise!

Telecom NZ (S523) - Voicemail

Hi,

First of all thanks for this great ROM, within a week I've gone from an application locked phone with no Voice dialling to Windows Mobile 6.5 with, fantastic! I was a bit nervous of the flash but it all went great. The only downside was I couldn't restore my historical texts, but that's no biggie.

Now I have a small problem, for some reason my Voicemail number is not being downloaded from the network, the previous 2 stock ROMs I had on the device worked fine. I don't mind entering the number manually if someone can tell me how I can map this number to speed dial 1, which is currently reserved.

Thanks again,

Mark.

patch instead of upgrade?

Actually brother, I'm using 1.00, release 082309. Is it possible to just release a patch to correct only this single issue? I'm already very happy with the phone except for that problem. I really rather not reflash with the new image. What do you say? Do you think you'll find time to make a patch for the issue? You can just send the needed files to me and a very brief instruction set. I'm pretty handy with computers - I'm sure I can handle it.

Thanks,

Justin :)
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
WOW!! Get off that! 1.00 was VERY buggy in so many ways. It was my initial release and meant as a "test". 1.60 is very stable and much faster. Highly recommend an upgrade. No patch available for 1.00 and the fn key. I had to make lots of changes in the kitchen to make it work. Cheers!

Function key problem and 1.00 to 1.60 reflash

I'm certainly disappointed that there's no way to release only a fix for that problem. Though you state 1.00 was very buggy, I haven't experienced any problems except for the one with the Fn keys not working. In any case, thank you very much for the reply. I'll try with the 1.6 version. FYI I don't know if this helps, but I just installed Garmin Mobile XT yesterday and the problem exists in that application as well. Thanks again -- I bet you're learning a great deal from all this hacking.

The reason no one answered you was because it was already covered in the thread. All you had to do is read back a page or 2. TImestamp can be added in messaging under menu, tools, options, display. Opera Mini icon is attached. Drop it into your device under \Windows\Start Menu. Not sure about apps from storage card. The CLauncher panel was written by someone else.

Don't be. 1.60 is a completely different OS. Microsoft doesn't (CANNOT) release a patch to go from Windows Vista to WIndows 7. :) With 1.60, many of the issues you are having will be fixed. Enjoy.

Connection setup

Can someone who installed ROM confirm if "Connection Setup" is still in the Accessories folder. It makes setting up easier cuz u just have to pick country and phone carrier
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
Connection Setup runs automatically once an unsetup SIM is inserted. If it doesn't for some reason, you can find it in \Windows\ConnectionSetup.exe.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
Not sure, probably no responses because no one is experiencing this. I use AT&T and my VM # came in just fine. You should be able to manually enter it under Settings, Phone, Call options. If you don't know it, I would put your SIM into another device where it does work and write it down. :)

Couple of questions:

1. Does anyone know how to take out the "3vo series rom" at the home screen? Or if I can replace it with an icon?

2. Is it possible to arrange the start menu, move around the icons?

3. How can I change the start menu icon at the home screen?

4. The Wi-Fi is grayed out in my Comm Manager. In the home screen, I can select the wifi, but it will not connect to a network. What's wrong?

Thanks Ookba. I had done this, but every time I click 'Done' it downloads from the network again and I end up with an empty field again. :-)

Back on stage

Dear Ookba,

Thank you for your help. The gold card works well. Now my mobile is back on stage.

I will like to propose some add for your new release (perfections can be reach by others complaints):

1. To create instead of one ROM, two - one ROM with clean operathing system (no apps) which will be instaled, like now, on the phone memory and the second ROM with apps, tweaks, etc. in which we can chouse what apps to install and were to be instaled the apps (phone memory or microSD).

2. By default the emails, SMS, My Documents, Internet temporary and cookies to be saved to microSD. Snap have some problems with internal memory (not allways have enough memory).

3. GoogleMaps V2.2.23 to be replaced with V3.2.0. (you dont have the option to uninstall the V2.2.23 and if you install the new version, you have both versions - save memory)

Opera Mini 4.2 to be replaced with Opera Mini 5 (Beta)

4. Some time you don't realize that your Wi-Fi is not more available and then the mobile will use 3G. Can we add in a notification that the Wi-Fi is no more available and If we allow 3G to be used? (For saving data plan)

5. By default, to have some more folders (with related icon) on Start Menu (ex. Connectivity, Multimedia, Navigation, Settings, Internet, My Documents (This to be a shortcut to your My Documents, picture, music...)

6. To be posible to configurate long press for all soft keys. (ex: contacts =short press-contacts list, long press-new contact, etc)

7. When you are in any apps, if you press call termination key (red key) the apps to be terminated (like some apps exit) (no more resident in phone memory) and if you press any other key the apps to remain open (resident in phone memory) like now.

8. If it is allow, I can share some of my purchased apps to be use?

Your hard work it is appreciated.

Thank you

hi there,

just installed this rom and seems that my FN Keys are "off" in some programs:

1 = FN + Q

2 = FN + W

weird thing thing is that my PIN still works, can dial numbers, but when entering password in new email adress FN Combi's are off again :s

Anyone familiar with this?

Dash 3G Boot screen issue

I got a Dash 3G yesterday and flashed the new ROM today. I have been a fan of the 3VO ROMs on the Excalibur for a while so it was a no brainer. Only issue so far is that I have some weird letters and numbers that appear with the HTC logo int the boot screen on start up. They are in red. Right before it switches to the WM 6.5 logo. I had it on the 6.1 boot screen after a failed attempt to run Jockeys hardspl 1.17. Only it was in the get connected logo part from T Mo. I ran the 1.19 version and it worked. Said image version was 1.17xxxxx but would not work. Same with flashed ROM. It has only been a few minutes so this is the only issue I have. Any ideas how to get rid of it? I have a pic but have to upload it. Slow on the trigger I guess. Thanks for any help. I hope this ROM is as awesome as all the ones I have grown to love on the original Dash. :D
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
Heya! Welcome to the Maple world! Phone is MUCH faster than the old Dash. :) It sounds like something happened during the flash again. This is the first I am hearing about this. And since it happened to your Dash as well, I would say swap out the USB cable, change USB ports, and reflash.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] nicolaerugina:
Hay Ookba,

I found that I have similar problem.

Mine, ones I connect on ActiveSync change to GMT+2, after disconecting, remain the same, GMT+2, but, after restarting, come back to my time, GMT+3!!!

Any solution?

Thanks
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] Psmit:
True, but the text "3VO SERIES ROMS" is overlapping with appointment texts, which become unreadable!

Removing this text or at least the 'always on top feature' would be a nice improvement without discrediting ookba; there are other places like the splash screens that still refer to the 3VO 'branding'.

PS: Ookba, great rom! I'll be donating shortly!
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] slipknotfn:
No I meant it happened to the original T Mo ROM that comes stock on the 3G too. Not the original Dash. I was tired and rambling last night. I will try to attach a photo of what it looks like. Like I said it is in the splash screen and is only there for a second or three so it is hard to focus on and capture. The pic I did get is blurry. But illustrates what I am talking about I think. I think it has something to do with the 1.19 vs the 1.17 hardspl. 1.17 would not do anything even after 10 minutes it was at 0%. So I pulled the battery and tried again with 1.19 even though my phone says image version was 1.17. On start up from that attempt I saw these numbers and letters in red. I then proceeded to run the 1.19 version and it went through no problem. Restarted and it did it again. Flashed the 1.19 version of the ROM and it is still there. Not sure what it is. But IE and Opera will not open or even initialize. Will try to reflash and see what happens. What will happen if I run the autobat rather than the rom update utility?

Update: Figured it out. Ookba gave me the answer. Turns out it is a part of the normal startup for the Dash 3G. But T Mo has so much red in their splash that you hardly notice. But on a black splash it is all too easy to see. So it is all good.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] dundeal67:
I found a way to remove this, just use resco explorer and search for Titanium_320x240.cpr in the windows folder. Open it with notepad and search for "3VO SERIES ROMS". Just remove the text and you are set.

I agree that I am not trying to discredit ookba for his hardwork. There are other places that still show the 3VO.

thanks again ookba for the rom!
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] bmnaccounts:
Thanks for the useful information. I'm having issues unlocking the Titanium_320x240.cpr file, though... It seems to be set to "read only" and everytime I attempt to either remove that flag, edit, rename or delete, it still prevents me from doing so. I realize the file is probably in use - do I need to change the UI to something different temporarily in order to be able to modify it? Thanks again!
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] vibranze:
Hi Ookba,

Great ROM, love the theme! Can't wait for my Snap to come. Btw, does your ROM work with Snap (S521) version? And does your ROM support Chinese (read and write)?

This may be a dumb question but I am beating my head against the wall here. When I am in an application or playing a game or doing whatever and I let it sit for ,oh say 5 seconds or so without touching a button, it goes back to my homescreen. How do I get rid of this? It is quite annoying. It does it in everything except texting. So if I have a moment that I have to step away BAM my screen is gone and I have to go start> recent programs> whatever it was I was doing and find where I was. I have been trying since yesterday to figure out what I enabled to make this happen so I can un-enable it. Any help would be greatly appreciated so I do not have to do a reset to original settings and start over. I like it just like it is. Except that. Thank you all very much. And anyone know of a good GPS to use? I did find one here but I am not sure if it will work for the Dash 3G.

It will allow you to install almost any Windows Mobile Standard (Smartphones/non-touch screen) compatible application. G-Alarm, as far as I know, is compatible only with Windows Mobile Professional (PocketPC).

It has the Windows Mobile default calendar as usual.

Give a try... it's a nice ROM... if you don't like, you can flash to a rebuild stock rom (from our RAW files).

I'm very much in love with this ROM, Ookba, you're a genius! still not a bug in sight.

For who's interested, I used the SD card method to flash this ROM. It works with HardSPL 1.19, I don't know if it works with 1.17.

Flashing using the SD card is very simple:

- Make sure your SD card is formatted as FAT32

- Download the ROM and find the NBH file (usually called ruu-signed.nbh)

- Copy the NBH file to the root of your SD card.

- Rename the NBH file to MAPLIMG.nbh

- Boot the phone in bootloader mode (volume down button + power on)

- Follow the on-screen instructions.

I take no responsibility for bricks, but it worked for me!

I need to get my hands on kmap files. Can you guys attach your kmap files and post them here with a description of what device they are from? I can then add these to my "Keymap Config" app so that there are no kmap issues anymore.

Filenames are eT9.Maple.wwe.kmap.txt or eT9.Maple.040?.kmap.txt and they're in \Windows. :)

My ROM is completely security, registry, and application unlocked. You can install almost anything written for Windows Mobile. Enjoy!

Sure, as I get RAW files from different SNAP's all overthe world, I can create a "stock" ROM for reverting back as needed. But really, you don't need to. If you want your WM 6.1 style homescreen back, simply run my Titanium Toggler app in Start Menu / Tools. This will toggle the phone back to HTC Sliding Panels. When it came to twaekability, I tried to think of it all! :D :D

Yea, since I am building it on a TMO Dash3G, I used that keymap as the default. Like i said earlier, send me or post you kmap files and I will add them to the list.

Your kmap file is the "UK" one. Seems like the S521 has they layout.

GREAT work!!!!!!!!! :)

I just got 1 question before i flash because the only reason i would wanna flash is if the keyboard speed is changed at all?

As owners of an HTC snap know is that when u type at a reasonable speed you start to miss letters even though you hit them on the keyboard

Can anyone say anything about this on this rom?

Radio Rom from the new

Hey Ookba

Is there a way I can ask you to take the new T-Mobile ROM, just posted on tmobile.com/wmupgrade

and create a RADIO only rom with it?

I know some like myself are experiencing dropped calls all the time, and I'd really like to see if this fixes the problem, but I am loathe to go back to a stock 6.1, and lose all your 6.5 goodness!

The new filename is: T-Mobile Dash 3G Software_1.17.531.6.exe, but T-Mobile do not give a changelog - actually they do, but it references the original Dash. Hmm.

Anyway, here's to hoping it can be done.
