Can anyone offer any help with location codes for Canada in NRG weather ??

I have entered a location at weather.yahoo.com but I end up with nothing being displayed. I tried USA zip codes and they work fine so my connection is okay etc... just cant seem to get any info from canada ?

BTW: Great work on the 6.5 ROMS !!

I just got a BJ2 i616 from ebay which i updated to 6.5 yesterday.

Have Garmin XT 5 working just great along with a bunch of other cool stuff

thanks for all your work

*****UPDATE*****

went to weather.com and it shows the correct codes

noob question

i just wanted to know where to find a guide on how to install the 6.5.... i have a bj2 unlocked running wm6 standard... will this lock my bj2 back to at&t? or will it remain unlocked? thanx in advance..
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ThisWasATriumph:
I've got a working (I think but one volume button is broke...) mobo from an an otherwise broken phone you can have. how bad you want it?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] TimelesslyPrecise:
So you have it figured out... i don't know the first thing about CCC's, though i am sure some google'ing would help.. :D

That NRG, was always weird for me... always.. Lol

:D Good Luck

Edit****

I never did like that NRG though, on any system.. Lol so maybe that's why i never got it to work..

***

Flipcrackpot,

the first post state's, take a look into the Black Jack I forum, you should find instructions..

As a general rule of thumb,

You want to:

Boot the phone in 'Download Mode' - i think you push up volume, and Back key, then push power and it should say Download BADA or something along the lines..

Next, Use the Single.exe (or w\e) App that came with the rom, and load the .bin file into "PDA" portion (no other) and it will turn blue when the phone is plugged up in DL mode..

Now, you can just push Download, wait, and it will do its thing.

When all is said and done, you want to do a factory reset after each initial Flashing..

Good luck!!

Always make sure full battery!!

Edit****

Here, try this...

1.) To put your Blackjack II into “Downloader Mode”: with the phone powered off hold down Volume Up + Back Key(arrow at top right of keyboard) while powering on the Blackjack II

2.) Run included program "I600_v1.1_Single.exe"

3.) Connect device to computer. Yellow color in program should change color.

4.) Click "PDA" button. Choose included file "whateverbinfileforyourphone.bin"

5.) Click "Start Download"

6.) When device shows "Phase 2 ------- [PASS]" Flash is done. It should auto-reboot quickly.

7.) First boot will be slow so be patient.

8.) Goodluck

for future questions about the NRG weather app you or any others might have, it'd be best to search here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=403343

well, i appreciate the offer. but i think this project would be best continued by someone that uses the phone for more than just the weekend. that way bugs will get eliminated more effectively.

however, i did give my kitchen to a coworker that has and uses the phone daily. i'll keep on him to see if he plans to do a public release, when he's done...

P.S.

@ThisWasATriumph

I'm making a note here huge success. :D:D

Dermann,

Completely understanding... We all appreciate your hard efforts...

Dam, I'm going to AT&T (again) to have some 'retail therapy'....lol

I have not idea (how interchanged), the powerbutton can be, but I have a extra BJ I 607-that I could send to you....just trying to keep the 'magic open'...lol

Just let me know via email...

Dermann,

Thanks m8, for the .cab file via email...very nice as when you want to install that MS app (through their update links...yikes it takes @15-20MB of precious device MB....lol

Lets keep the lines of communication open, and if you decide to get another 'updated device'......probably either Android or possibly Win7, man let me know...

Excellent.. I haven't had my phone past few days, missed alot of email... I'm going to charge up and test the rom a little later on..

Oh, Droid 2, and Droid Pro with Verizon.... are Worldwide... (being they have GSM, Sim slots...)

I'm wondering if i get one unlocked, will it work on my ATT?

That, would be awesome!!

Well, as for 600 to shell out on the phone... not just yet.. Lol

Happy Holidays all..
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] gahbmwm5:
Dam unfortunately with above ROM (Samsung Jack) I got a nasty 'contacts bug'...the syncing with WMDC 6.1 showed sync successful...however upon pressing the actual contact (with shows in Contacts List), all the pertinent info (phone numbers, mobile, work, address, notes, fax) is completely blank-->then if you press the 'edit' button it will show the info, and sometimes dial the number...lol

This is syncing with Outlook 2007 Office, and I tried MS MyPhone too, but no success...contacts (when pressed within all aspects, will at time bring up a weird flashing...)

I guess (if I really wanted to try out the ROM, I could manually add my contacts, and all info, as I do not have that many under 60)....but...lol

Dermann, I know that you made this ROM (from a co-workers borrowed BJIII-i637), and your efforts are really appreciated my friend...back to WM6.1...

Enjoy your Holidays all...!

;)
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] dermann:
i have another one coming, this one will be a proper final rom. with build from a samsung jack "sgh-I637." i have to return my coworkers phone today and will upload the new rom when i get home.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] gahbmwm5:
Hey Dermann,

You know, I think that you are correct with that 'delay aspect' when both dialing out and receiving call being caused by the 'animated call feature' being turned on....as you mentioned this needs to load a bunch of pics...

I will leave it turned off by defualt as you mentioned....:)

Good deal with the Contacts bug....

In regard the GUI aspects, still getting use to the 'cube' replacing the MS Flag...on the homescreen...lol kind of perfer the colored MS Flag, or even the white MS Flag that you had in earlier SAC ROMs...

Where in Device\Windows would I find this file? As I could save it from WM6.1 ROM prior to flashing to the latest i637 ROM..?

This file maybe hard-coded into ROM...?

Also, you put a new graphic when dialing---->has your icon showing three times, then the alpha_dial graphic up top...?

I know that this graphic is in /Windows---->but I can not find it now...but I have attached a file that shows this graphic, a little cleaner without your icons at the top left...lol

I utilize the default built-in Vanity dialing, so I kind of like the subtle (either AT&T graphic-pic attached), or the subtle Samsung graphic at top that you had in earlier SAC ROMs....lol

Ok found this----->looks like ms_mobile_oem.gif

:p

What do you utilize to open up .cab files...?

ResHacker or PE Explorer...?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] dermann:
lol, well he's willing to lend his phone to me on the weekends. i had to switch phones with him to get it, my fuze for his BJ2. he wasn't impressed with my fuze, but he's ok with using my BJ1 for the weekend.

i use "WinCE CAB Manager" for cab's.

as for the microsoft flag, download the zip from this thread. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6731050&postcount=8

and for those with a Samsung Jack sgh-I637... good news for you guys. i'm pricing that phone on ebay, so custom roms will be coming to you guys just as soon as i get one. i've already dumped the stock 6.5 rom from AT&T's .exe and rebuilt it (with help from py8). i just need the phone to see if it's flashable.

uploading BJ2 roms now.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] dermann:
new rom is up, go download it and let me know what you think.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] neonvegas:
Time to load up my XP virtual machine and try this sucker. ;)
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] gahbmwm5:
Excellent, and I will be flashing today...!

Thanks for the cab extractor tool, and also the 'tapres.dll' files, as I'm going to fire up ResHacker, and play with it....!

Found the flag--->IconGroup--->18120--->Forgot how useful this app is!

Will report back findings on the new ROM, and once again my friend your hard work is soooo appreciated!

:cool::);)

P.S.S.

Also very funny, your co-worker not being too thrilled with your Fuze, but allowing to use his BJII (on weekends) for your lending him your BJI is great!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] TimelesslyPrecise:
Okay...

Xp Mode doesn't like me anymore... idk what happened...

Finally said F*@k It, and loaded up a clients laptop with Xp in between rebuilds and flashed it... Lol.

Got the rom on, running great..

since its hte first day, we will see how the alarm handles in the morning..

The keypad has been moderately decent to me today.

This looks nice Der.. I'll put it through the stress test when i get a chance to breathe.. (we've been busy at work)

This looks great, i really like the Metro theme.. nice and large like i can read it.

There are a few other things i notice and like too.. the small cube at the Start bar, also there are a few der flags when you push Green Talk from a blank screen.. when you are about to select a contact. probably more easter eggs here and there,

I just haven't found them.

So far, stable, and so good!!

I do think i notice a bit more speed with this one.. definitely since the Call Int. has been disabled.

Off to bed everyone,

Der.. send me an email @Time.... if there are any updates. since i have my phone back now, i can reply in a more timely fashion..

This looks great. Jack looks like a promising build base. i hope you get a good deal on a Jack, and maybe a BJII also.

Keep up the good work all,

607 working on new rom almost done. 617 and 637 bought me both phones will arrive in a week or so. 617 working on 2 versions. -->

lol.....you always kill moi! Can not wait as that dam .exe (process) bug is nasty!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] TimelesslyPrecise:
and a bit more,

just to add, i don't know if it makes a difference, but i haven't been using any backup's in between roms.. a fresh start each time.. (gahbmwm5, i don't know if this may play a role into the contacts issue..?)

Just saw the update, You have both the 617 and the 637 on the way!!! Great!!

Maybe i can pickup a nice secondhand 637, those look like nice models. :D

Edit***

actually, the facebook app seems to be buggy...

i believe it is Cache that is an issue. personally i haven't looked further into it, than logging out of facebook closing it out, and then logging back in.. or logging out before i'm done..

Facebook doesn't seem to update well if you don't log out.. like the content is a few days old.. i went on for three days until i realized it was all the same stuff.. Lol

Minor, i don't know if anyone else would have noticed..

i would say it uses IE as a base to browse, but again i haven't looked further than logging out in between uses.. Lol :D

i wish google would get with the program and backup my texts, as well as my email, contacts, and calendar.. :P

Everything else in the system seems great..

I have successfully tested Tethering with ICS, via Bluetooth PAN and USB cable... works great!!

other features seems to work well, Office Word 2010 seems very snappy.

Windows Media player is another case, nothing too excessively slow, just more so the fact that our hardware limits us from accessing files from a slower MicroSD card.. :\

haven't messed with gps or anything.. Lol

I know the area too well.. and when i don't, i further define navigational intuition all too often. Lol

By the way, i don't know if i mentioned it, but i Love the "Metro" theme...

is that something customized from a Metro PCS phone?

is that a dumb question?

Lol

The icons are really great, easy to read, and i like the little custom stuff here and there also!!
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] gahbmwm5:
Hey Dermann,

Thanks for the 'testing' Bootlauncher.reg file...unfortunately, same .exe process issues (Gmail, Messaging, MS OfficeOutlook2007), on homescreen..

Received your email link to the SAC_Beta_Dec.23.bin and will flash to this later today or tomorrow, and will post back my findings...

Happy New Years Eve Holiday weekend all! 2011---->Yikes...lol
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] gahbmwm5:
Crossing our fingers.....thus far NO gmail, outlook2007, or windows live errors...

ON HOMESCREEN...................

Also Mobile IE is so much more responsive then other builds...clicking on all hyperlinks within webpages seems to now work properly!

Is this a earlier IEMobile 6 build? Whatever you do with your respective kitchens....BJI, BJII, and Jack637, man keep it...lol

Will keep you posted as soon as I do more testing...

Calling out and Receiving in....nice and responsive....(Great job here !, as you hit-it-on-the-nail with disabling all animated calling features within ROM!)

EDIT~~~~~~~

Dam...spoke too early...

Reboted and that dam demon is back...

Funny, because I immediately hit CeleTask and processes produces 'only' activesync.exe....

But I did notice upon first couple of reboots, even before installing any email clients, or even syncing with OfficeOutlook2007, that a couple of times...I saw the same type of glitch_error on homescreen, but it stated 'Clock-on-top'--->all icons went back to black_white default explorer icons--->but this happened very quickly and then disappeared...

Hope it helps somewhat...

@TimelesslyPrecise

i've noticed the same on my Fuze with the facebook app, so i'm going to go ahead and blame facebook for this one. haha

windows media, i to have noticed it lagging a bit. especially if your music is on your SD card. i pop my old 512mb card in and heilige scheiße(holy ****)... nearly a minute and a half in between shuffling songs. my 8g HC card isn't so slow but slow enough. though this might be because of my nearly 4,500 song library. lol

i like the Metro theme also, though the text messages in the text panel could be bigger. i'm not sure where the theme idea came from.

@gahbmwm5

sorry for not answering some questions, wish i could say i've been busy but i've really just been lazy.

i went back to IE5, found out what the problem was. if i have any sort of asian support in my roms, IE and others will not display right, i'm assuming cause it's thinking it's displaying the asian characters.

i've also noticed that their is a phantom Delicacy home layout in the home screens settings. i'm thinking it's coming from my sd card. but as of lately, i never have the phone long enough to go see why. also a by product of being lazy. lol

i should be getting both my phones this week. sure will be nice, as i'm getting tired of having to share with a coworker. really looking forward to cooking for the 637, also hope i don't run into to many problems cooking for it. :)

school is starting up this next week, just lining things back up.

I'm having more issues with this last rom than anything... it's almost as if you moved back to an old rom..??

Word,

the keyboard (numbers portion) in word only type numbers.. the rest of the keys are okay..

this is while just creating a new document.

(**and just to confirm, the same error produces in the B9 rom... :\

the alarm seems to be stable, but i can't tell.. (so the alarm from Beta is working okay)

Phone, Dialing interface....

has locked up on me several times...

(B9 was great, NEVER gave me an issue)

I'm about to go back one rom, as it was absolute bliss (actually, until i heard word of gahbmwm5's having issues.... then i noticed the double alarm thing... Lol

i am curious as to if this rom is one of the originals, or what was different in pressing this one?

I don't know what function of the keyboard driver Word 2010 is trying to use, but it is all out of order.. i can't tell if it has been this way since B9 (Jack rom) or before... I will try and do more testing on this for you, i just loaded back to b9 but if i get a chance, i'll load up 8 and see if i can get the same error..

I know one thing stands out more than anything,

Dial Interface in B9 was superb.. the alarm from beta works great too..

Now, let me get back with you on Word 2010, and i'll let you know if it produces the same issue..

I hope everyone is doing well!!

Ps, Gahbmwm5,

That clock you have loaded there.is pretty slick!! :]

Hey all,

As I told Dermann via text message, I had a dam hard drive and mobo failure with the Vista OS laptop that I was using....am in the process of relocating so no decision (yet) for a smokin' Win7 laptop for the next 2 weeks or so..

Question: Are you able to utilize the same 'duane Vista Flash files' for a Win7 64-bit unit?

I'm going to get Dermann's sig again for details on flashing with Win7...

Thanks

Currently, borrowing a Win7 64-bit laptop....but don't want to screw it or my BJII device up....LOL!!!

Hey Timeless,

Here is the CHOME_Clock.png

OK found this link

Windows 7 64 bit driver!

I see that a lot of you cant get this to work in Windows 7 because it won't accept the drivers.

I have found the drivers that is needed in order to make this work in Windows 7 64 bit!

You will need to download the driver package that i have attached to this post instead of the one in the main thread, if you use win7 64 bit. This wont work with Win7 32 bit!

Remember to start win7 with driver signing turned off (F8 when booting and select from menu) or else this wont work either

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] gahbmwm5:
Hey All,

Win7 64-bit question in regards to flashing to another 6.5 ROM...I did not realize that Win7 already has Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 built-in (at least it does on this loaned laptop)...

I know that Dermann received his collective phones yesterday....and will be working on various 6.5 ROMs for i607, i617, and i637....!

I D/L the files for flashing on Win7-64bits and there are two files: (within the x64_wce.zip)

wceusbsh.sys------>system file

wceusbshx64------->setup information

If I still have access to this laptop, and am ready to flash to a new 6.5 ROM, I would just 'update this driver---->pic attached and point it to wceusbsh.sys file, then proceed with the actual flashing...? The date may actually go from below 2007 dated driver to a 2004 dated driver----->at least this is how it worked with duane's original files for Vista flashing...

In the case of a emergency, has anyone had any success with flashing back to original Samsung 6.1_MR ROM, via Win7x64 bit....as they only have the tool downloader built for WinXP and WinVista x32 bit.....without having to tear open their download tool and trying to put it in a cooked bootloader.exe...way above my head.....lol

Hey Timeless,

I let Dermann know via email, that I would get back to him here...

Have not utilize Word 2007 or Word 2010 on the device at all...I typically stay away from it....lol but know have a trial copy of only MS Office_Student 2007, so I do not have my Outlook2007...:(

I have not had any dial out or dialing in lockups at all with the beta_Dec23_SAC ROM....no delays at all, so this is pleasing for me...

As Dermann and moi have chatted (at length) about is the nagging gmail.exe, Windows Live.exe process bug on the homscreen....but this does not seem to affect any overall device operation...at least for now..

My contacts are now through MSMyPhone (latest v1.6.2718) and all seems stable..so now that I'm not syncing with Outlook2007, I am watching after every reboot, to see if the above mentioned bug rears its nasty head...lol

I will keep testing_sending emails from gmail (pop3) account to my Windows Live (pop3) account and see....

2010 word works fine, open a doc file and try editing it. everything works for me, i know what your talking about with the numbers.

small work around. open word,

type a quick... anything,

go to menu and click #2 (preview),

now go back to menu and click #2 again (edit),

you will now be able to write as normal.

i have a feeling build 23137 might be better. as soon as i'm done building it, i'll release it to my beta testers for debugging. if anyone else wants to be part of my beta testers team, let me know.
