I am rooted running Celeb 3.0 and was wondering if I am using Handcent for all messages what would happen if the stock Messages app was removed? Will I still be able to send/receive messages?

Sorry if this doesn't belong in this forum.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n2imagination:
To my knowledge you cannot remove the stock messaging app as handcent and all others ride off that. To answer the other part, yes this should have been asked in the Celb thread instead of starting its own thread. Im sure Conap or one of the others would have answered it for you.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenzomonk:
you'll generally want to ask ROM specific questions in the ROMs thread :)

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

i had thought that you could remove the stock messaging app... but i could be wrong :) (pretty sure you could do this on 2.1 ROMs... not sure on 2.2 i guess)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spelletier:
Thanks for letting me know....still getting the hang of the rules. :)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] homewmt:
If you think about it this really isn't a rom specific question, Its just a question about android. Just because the OP added a note that they were running celb3.0 dosen't make it a question about the rom.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n2imagination:
Yes I agree that this could be a general android ? but then it should be in the general ?s section still. Main thing I was saying is that in dealing with conap before he is totally open to ?s like this and would also know better.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Conap:
Make a nandroid backup. Delete the stock mms. See if handcent still works. If not restore your backup. I've had people tell me it doesn't work and some people tell me they have had no problems when removing it. I don't use handcent or sms/mms at all for that matter so I haven't tried it myself. And as others have said feel free to ask this type of stuff in my thread...
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hungry Man:
A) It belongs in Q&A... duh.

Anyway, handcent will still work but your notifications for it won't. I've tried "freezing" the app with titanium and I get the same issues.

Hi!

I'm sorry, but i don't know where i should write to report a bug found on my Samsung Galaxy S... i mean i don't know if i should write here or in another site... i'm sorry for that, but i hope someone could help me...

My Galaxy (that I love it) i don't know why to some randomly number of my friends doesn't send SMS... i mean... it send... i spend money, but they doesn't receive...

It is not an operator problem, it do the same problem with Tim, Vodafone ecc...

To some mobile phone number they don't arrive... I think was a bug in my firmware 2.1 JM5, but a friend with Galaxy S too but JM3 firmware noted that some number in SMS hasn't the "+" in front the number... if ther is +39 (i'm writing from Italy... and sorry for my english... :o) or if there isn't is the same... SMS arrives, but sometime the number starts with 39 (no "+" ahead)... we try to cancel the phone number, delete the contact and rewrite, but the thing persists... How can i do? I Hope Samsung knows this problem and corrects it in the next Froyo 2.2... but i would write to it... i hope i write enough correct to understand me... :o

Thanks by now for who respond me... ;)

I just want to report the bug to Samsung or someone who can resolve it... :o
[General Questions and Answers] jonifen:
You'd be better off raising the issue with your operator at first - see if they have had any issues on their network. If they say that they've had no problems, then log the fault direct to Samsung (you might be able to do it through the Samsung Mobile website).
[General Questions and Answers] migliorare:
Thank you jonifen,

i don't think is an operator problem, because the problem is on many number of different operators, and my friend have the same problem (with a different operator than me...)

I try to find something in Samsung Mobile website! Thanks again! ;-)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] imre00:
Thanks Steven,

This ROM is great, but because the interface changes in windows 6.5.5 some applications is not alligned well (ex. Settings->Power). And consumes lot of memory (after clean boot we only have ~27M free RAM. So, I'm waiting for standard WM 6.5 ROM with messaging working.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
Is messaging not working for you? As for the interface stuff, it's probably because Microsoft designed it that way. For the free ram, I had no idea that you only have ~27mb free (somehow, it worked out better for me). This weekend, I will have some time to look into the ram issue since I'm off for a few days from college on fall break. Is the free ram reading you have right after a hard reset??
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
For those of you looking for linux updates, I have none due to a graphics bug that has been forever plaguing the A6x6, the issue of it being a landscape device. What happens is the system boots up in what is landscape mode in real life, but the system thinks it's in portrait mode. This has been driving me crazy, but I won't have time for a while to fix it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] imre00:
Hi, Steven

Messaging is working in v5 and is working now in v4 too after reflash. The interface issue is not your problem, to be well aligned or you must rewrite the Asus applications, or the Asus must release ROM with WM 6.5.5. So I'm glad to see an WM 6.5.5 on my A696 but I think WM6.5 is more usable in A696.

The free RAM is right after hard reset, but I have some programs installed witch starts on boot (Spb PocketPlus).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
Fat chance that Asus will make a WM6.5.5 rom if they didn't even make a WM6.1 rom for the A6x6 (I asked Asus once if they would make even a TEST WM6.5 rom with no liability for damages, but Asus was stingy about it). However, I do agree with you that WM6.5 is much more usable on the A6x6 then Wm6.5.5 is (I would even make the case that WM6.1 somewhat outdoes WM6.5 on the A6x6 too). I can't really rewrite the OEM programs since Asus releases no source code.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] imre00:
Correct, all of your work is excellent and without source you can't do anything.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
Yep, and without hardware information for the A6x6, Linux progress is much, much slower.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pjpeter:
Interesting - I'm looking at upgrading my A696 for the first time - I posted asking for a new A696 ROM over a year ago (possibly under my other account, pdamouse) and I'm very glad it happened :). The WM6 it has on it is extremely slow and unreliable and the device itself tends to shut down randomly as of late - especially when using iGo8 but also if I just leave it on the Today screen - it could be hardware but maybe the software fix will fix it. I had it in for service once when it was still under warranty because it stopped charging or otherwise accessing battery power properly.

What would you recommend I install as a first upgrade? I have WM6.5.3 on my Xperia X1 and was thinking I would install WM6.5.5 on my A696 now - but it sounds like WM6.5 v4 of this software is much more usable anyway? So many options - you're recommendation would be great - thanks :)

Peter

P.S. Thanks very much for all the work you've done on this, I really appreciate it - noticed your sig, will give something when I get this working :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
Maybe a few questions will help you decide. Do you like the old WM6/6.1 interface and like using a stylus? If so, try my latest WM6.1 rom. Do you like the WM6.5 interface, but want compatibility with older programs? If so, try my latest WM6.5 rom (which is a mix between using stylus and using fingers). Do you like using your fingers instead of a stylus? If so, then go ahead and try the WM6.5.5 rom.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pjpeter:
I've got tons of time to wait now, got the SD Card prepped and everything - but the download site doesn't seem to like me, I went through the hoops four times and it's asked me to wait over 20 minutes once, while not giving me the file at any point. At the end I got to the download page and it was just blank and after waiting awhile, nothing ever happened.

Update: Five time's the charm - downloading v4 now.

Interesting, thanks for your reply Steve - I'm trying to figure out how 6.5.5 would make apps that use the stylus not work (Update: I found your note from 6.5.3: "WARNING: This is a release of Windows Mobile 6.5.3. Due to changes to os code, SOME older programs WILL NOT WORK. By this, I mean that an older program may execute as normal, but some of the menu options might not work due to the start button being moved to the bottom of the screen instead of the top like it was with WM6.5 and older. As far as I know, this is an os thing, so I CANNOT change this." - I guess that's how...) - but I'm thinking 6.5 might be my best bet now. I guess I'll have to do more research - I prefer doing all the simple things with my fingers, but if I need to type for example, I like the ability to do things simply with the stylus without needing to switch to number mode on the keyboard, for example.

Thanks for your quick reply :)

Peter
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pjpeter:
I've decided to try 6.5.5 first :). Unfortunately that means I need to redownload - but only 20 mins or so till it lets me and hopefully the download sys will work properly this time...

I decided based on screenshots of 6.5.5 on Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Mobile. Based on that, it looks like 6.5.5 is the same general interface as 6.5.3 which I've been using on my Xperia X1 for the past 3+ months and which I've come to like. I like that I can use my fingers in general - yes it doesn't look quite as good, and maybe the Xperia's 800x480 3" screen has made it so I don't see the larger bar as such a loss - but I've been getting more and more annoyed with the A696's raised screen edge border, especially at the top right hand corner when in portrait mode - on my unit at least, it makes it quite difficult to get at the X with anything but the stylus and I like to be able to use my PDA sometimes without it, especially to just do really simple things like that.

Thank you for your feedback Steven - hoping to try this out this afternoon and will let you know my RAM info as well :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
Thanks for reminding me to repost the warning message (with this rom).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lukesan:
Hi Peter,

I think I have the same device. Scary, but it has been in the car hidden away as a GPS backup solution in case my touch HD fails and I am abroad.

What I've read a couple of times is that what you describe is a bad contact between the batt and the device. Some people solved it by using paper to get the batt to have a better contact with the device. Worth looking into I think.

I still have WM5 on it so I better get it out of the car and spend hours of joy :-)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
If you want to try my roms, you have to upgrade to the latest (WM6) stock rom in order of release, and then if you want to go back to WM5, I have a backup rom available.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bmasephol:
Download and flashed. Seems to be working fine for what I use it for.

Thanks for the update!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pjpeter:
It works much better than WM6 that's for sure! :) Much smoother and faster, I quite enjoy it :)

I like the new way it works, much easier to use my fingers, and I haven't seen any apps yet that I use being obscured by the thicker bar in such a way that functionality (or even aesthetics) are compromised.

Without installing anything, after a couple of soft resets I now have 29.62mb free RAM on boot. I got one Out of Memory error on iGo8, I will try to tweak the settings and see if I can get it to run smoothly. I'd be curious to know how much free RAM 6.5.3 has on boot, but I'm pretty sure I'll stick with this one if i can get that app to work without a problem - I use it to do tracklogs of my bike commute and it'd be nice to get it working consistently.

Thanks very much for all your work :),

Peter
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lukesan:
Hi Steven, thx very much for the warning. Luckily I was too tired yesterday to even type so I decided to charge it fully and do the upgrade a couple of days later.

Peter.

I have a A636 but I can imagine this might apply to your, all of our model, too

http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx...N&id=20100126144716015&page=1&SLanguage=en-us

On another point. I just checked my A636 outside and I have a hard time reading the display in the sun at max setting while my touch HD is alot better.

Is the display going darker? Any problems on that part on your end guys?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
I'm not exactly sure about the screen, but I think it might be because of the screen type. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Touch HD seems to have more of a glass-like screen, while the A6x6 (and A636) seem to have more of a plastic-like screen.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] pjpeter:
I know my A696 has a Matte Screen - it's a design feature to reduce the reflections while in the sun. Of course I put a screen protector on it right away that happens to be glossy so it completely eliminated any benefit - so I get the reflections and my screen isn't as vibrant as it otherwise would be (no where near my X1's display that's for sure) - still though I haven't had too many problems with it while driving during the day as long as I have it on max brightness - though when I was wearing my polarized glasses - it was possible to read it, but certainly it could have been easier, I agree.

Still using the firmware and it's growing strong :). I disabled Error Reporting and Customer Feedback, not sure if that helped much but I haven't gotten a Memory error from iGo8 again. It also hasn't had a phantom shutdown either, so all in all going well with 6.5.5! :)

Thanks,

Peter

I recently got a Asus Mypal A626 and have been looking into using one of your custom firmwares. I noticed you said you have to update to the latest (WM6) stock rom. I was wondering where you would get that? I'm running Windows Mobile 6 Classic, CE OS 5.2.1239 (Build 17746.0.2.4) at the moment.

Also, have any of you had problems syncing an Asus A626 with Windows 7 64 bit? It just continually connects and disconnects.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Steven855:
I, myself, am running (on the Windows side, I have a dual-boot system) 64-bit Windows 7 Professional. I have not had any sync problems so far.

As for the latest stock rom version, it is "V03.0735.00". The only language which this is different for is Hungarian, which is "V03.0735.01". You can verify this by going into the Control Panel (Settings), and going to the System Information control panel applet.
