hi...i create this thread for everybody who had problems or bugs with the WM6 ROM either PDAMobiz or Smart1 ROM...
coz i find it difficult to search all of threads here...
If this thread doesnt get deleted here's my two cents: smart1 v2 ROM (G4 Prophet):
1. no java
2. Infrared doesnt work properly
3. phone freezes quite often
4. Charging issues: sometimes decides not to charge either on wall charger or PC USB cable...no set pattern there
1: Button 1 & 2 are not customizable ( to me , this is very very very very very very important, I change back to WM5 because of this)
2: when WIFI is ON and connected to a network, click the connection icon on the top of the screen, it will have a link for you to " TURN ON WIFI", shouldnt it be " TURN OFF WIFI" ?
3: cannot connect to internet once a while via WIFI, USB (activesync) , or GPRS , need soft reset to fix it. This issue sometimes happen to me on WM5 too, but seems more often on WM6.
4: I hard reset a few times to test different setting/ software etc, but 1 time, the WINDOWS live doesnt let me sign in at all, I have internet working (can get on google etc). But Windows live just keep telling me to check internet connection. -> hard reset.
For mndgz comment 2. Infrared doesnt work properly <<< I thought the Regedit, seems working for me. Maybe you just need another hardreset.
dmc3 is right, the pdamobiz WM6 post becomes too big... very hard to find answer....
well..thx..
but i think that v2 had fixed most of bugs in v1 that i'm using right now?
i haven't flash it to v2 but i think that mine is fine already.
only some bugs such as corrupted device lock,and contacts disappeared,and this ROM easily dead..
i'm looking forward on V3 ROM.hope that they've fixed all of bugs that now users have been complaining...
well..sometimes i think that maybe smart1 would creat new Open Source ROM just like Linux or else but compatible to WM applications
i have a strange error with the pdamobiz rom, i can't unlock my phone after a couple off soft resets it says i have wrong unlock code so i had to hard reset (had to hard reset 2times because off that, and i'm reinstalling phone now for 3th time but i'm not gonna choose a lock code).
it happens after i have installed almost all my software so that can also be the problem.
whan i go to lock in the settings menu, then i have to give in my code and that works but it doesn't work if i soft reset device
maybe the problem is my code itself and i choose 7519 ass code
Well.u must be using the same as mine,v1.
v2 doesn't have this problem(so far that i search all posts)
that's the bug..don't put any password until u've flash it to upcoming WM6 v3 ROM..maybe they've fixed this bug

strange,even Microsoft already said that starting from WM5.ROM will be used to save data..so,it must be NON-VOLATILE...
really,i'm surprised that WM6 ROM is back to "StoneAge" if it is about saving data...
Smart1 should fixed this problem on v3

I created some subfolders in my pushmail account (Mail2Web.com) in the Messaging tool, like "PPC Things" or "Private" but when I softreset my device (XDA Neo, G4) the mails in this subfolders where be deleted!!!
But when I look into my mail account via Firefox at PC I see them all in the right subfolders! :-?
Is it a bug or feature?
How to resolve this issue?
TimeZone
What about fixing the timezone prob ?
timezone is not a big problem.right now,if smart1 doesn't fix this "Volatile"-problem,this ROM is just a waste...

Did this issue of button mapping ever get fixed in Smart v2? I don't believe this was ever corrected in ANY of the aku 3 WM5 ROMS either.
whats button mapping? i don't get it?
Well, let me explain. This is the single biggest issue I have with all the WM5 aku 3 and WM6 ROMs so far, and I doubt it will ever get fixed for any new ROMs. This is also what keeps from updating my prophet to anything higher than aku 2.2.
Buttons 1 and 2 correspond to the lower left Windows key and the OK key on the lower right. When you go into the control panel, you see 'buttons'. Here, you can assign a different function to these 2 buttons in addition to buttons 3 and 4 (camera and conn manager by default). In all these latest ROMs, you can ONLY change buttons 3 and 4. Changing the function of buttons 1 and 2 will not work for some reason.
Using Wisbar Advance 2, I use buttons 1 and 2 for the Cascading Start Menu and Close, respectively. However, this won't work for aku 3 ROMs and WM6 ROMs......at least not yet! aaarrrrggghhhh!
not a problem....i often use both of them..
Huh? What do you mean you use both of them?
Of course you can use them, but for no other purpose than the default start menu and the minimize functions.
If you're saying they CAN be changed, try changing one to the calculator and see if it works....
Bugs
I recently installed the Smart1's WM6 ROM v2 - overall very nice, much faster than my original WM5 ROM.
Few problems:-
1) Password - Seems to forget password, constantly says incorrect password entered. Only solution - hard reset.
2) MMS - Can send but not receive - sometimes cannot send either. Keypad lights up as if it is going to receive but no notification appears.
3) WiFi - Sometimes forgets WPA-PSK and actual network for that matter.
4) Sometimes when shutting down, the screen gets corrupted.
Also had a lot ofproblems getting it to work in the first place. I do understand that it isn't an official ROM, just thought it fair to make a point of this, hopefully complete noobs will avoid it as I suspect many will end up with nice rounded black bricks
Im Using PDA Mobiz 1.00 v1, All seems fine, Cant change Buttons 1 & 2 but no need for me.
I thought we were going to have HTML Emails in WM6? MS Demo shows it - doesnt seem to work for my Push emails?
Also my Radio version is 2.20.21, should i update this to teh 2.6 something or if it works dont mess with it?

Hi all,
AKU3.2 comes with Bluetooth PAN - Internet Sharing, that fast and easy to use, you may see the example how to use here:
http://www.pdamobiz.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=69697
==============================================
Just would like to share our aku3.2 rom for futher improvement. This rom for experience rom upgrade user only!.
This rom is from Wizard rom with hacked some files.
Button Map OK! (All buttons and softkeys as Prophet)
WiFi OK!
Camera OK!
Charging LED OK! but delay about 10 seconds.
Battery Power OK!
Bluetooth OK! (I tested with Internet sharing, not test with a2dp yet)
This rom boot time is about 30 sec.
The problems are:
1. MSN can not sign in.
2. WiFi and Camera can not be used in the same time.
This rom is setting for WiFi, if you need to use camera you have to change registry.
Use registry editor and search for OV9650.dll and change to S5K3BAFX.dll then soft reset
If you want use WiFi again, you have to change registry back and soft reset.
3. MMS not work, no menu bar shown.
4. I don't know yet.
If you don't mind 3 above problems, you may use it as normal.
Thanks so much to Ruchonburi for his work.

You can download rom image from
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Prophet-PDAMobiz-AKU3.2-beta-OS.rar
Use aWizard to upgrade this rom.
I hope that remain problems can be solved soon.
Enjoy AKU3.2
nice, Thanks.
Any experts to solve the 3 probs?
Great work, I'll have a go fixing the problems. The reason the camera and wlan dont work together is that the module tnetwln.dll is overlapping memory with the camera driver, I think I can fix this.
Hopefully the msn and and mms problems are just related to missing files or registry entries.

Great,

Well the MMS issue is simply because there are some registry entries missing that would normall be setup by files bundles by the operator in the extended rom.
I'm currently working on getting the camera & wlan working and I'm flashing the rom as I type this (it takes about 20 minutes for anyone who doesnt know).
If I cant get MSN working I'll just remove it from the ROM and we can try and get it working as a seperate package as it means we dont need to keep trying to flash the rom, just create a cab file.
Basically I'm combining the various AKU3.2 out there to try and get a fully work version.
Also I'm creating a clean rom so that means I've removed smartdialling, HTC ZIP, voice dialling etc (as well as the registry entries for them). I prefer having a clean rom base that I can manually add features to using cab files.

How did the wlan issue go?
What is the power led delay problem that is mentioned in the 1st post?
Is there anything I can do from my side to help you?
Still working on the wlan issue, I've got the AKU3.2 from the Universal as the modules have different memory addresses so it gives me more scope of fitting all the modules and drivers in the memory space.
Don't know what causes the LED delay, but its really not a problem as it just means you have to wait a few more seconds for the LED to go solid amber when you charge the device.
I suppose the best help you could give would be to test it once (if) I get the camera and wlan working together.
MSN issue seems to be unfixable, I guess I'll just remove it from the rom and we'll wait for Live Messenger to get released.
Success!!! Got the camera and wlan working just fine, going to do a little bit of testing, remove MSN, then I'll upload the rom.
I would like to test it.
Just one question: I am using a XDA Neo (G4) with JAMin 2.13 WWE ROM, but the device is not CID unlocked. I purchased the unit from a company who falshed the JAMin English ROM for me with some special equipment to bypass the CID issue. So, before I update to this AKU 3.2 ROM, what should I do? Can I directly upgrade to this AKU 3.2 ROM from JAMin ROM?
Also, what is the last version of aWizard? Could anyone please give me a download link?
I would be happy to test this ROM, if somebody can help me go through the upgrade process.
Thanks a lot!

Hehe, I do not use MSN on my Neo (JAMin), and I do not use MMS, too. So, #1 and #3 are not a problem to me, and I do not care about the LED delay, too. But I do use wifi and camera a lot, sometimes I use it at the same time. I truel hope this issue will be solved soon.

See the picture.
If you can solve the model name , I think you can get the MSN working.

Can some one help me. Can you please describe in details how extactly do you put the new ROM on the device.

I've backed up everything and i'm ready to flash!
Also try what Iamguest suggests for the msn thingy.
Uploading now, but from my testing its a bit buggy (AKU32 is a beta I think after all).
The camera does work but with the following problems
*After exiting the camera app the screen orientation does not change back to portrait mode.
*After each soft reset you need to press the camera buttin twice to get it to load.
I've went back to AKU2 and think I will wait for the official AKU32 release.

I've try your modified rom, but it a bit buggy (and unstable) as you said. Maybe it came from module modification incomplete.
If you remember, could you tell me what you have done with new rom? So that I can continue your idea. Don't give up, this rom I've been working for 3 weeks already.
Thanks so much for working on it.
==============================
So now, still the only 3 problems remains, I wish I could have rom image builder.
For MSN, if you try merging my dump files with AKU2.0 rom image, you now can sign in with msn. But it creates new the problem new, is that prophet after turn off ~5 seconds it will turn on by itself. Can not be used as normal.
great work guys, keep it up!
Anyone tested a2dp yet?
Qtek s200 G4 chip (swisscom)
So I succesfully upgraded from the dopod novendor id rom to the Prophet_Clean_AKU32. using Awizard.
Now I am getting an error when trying to connect with activesync
(i had to reinstall activesync just to get connected so everything was clean)
It says "there is not enough free memory on your device to synchronize information" support code:8007000e after active sync connects
At first the contacts button didnt work at all so i assumed it had been stripped out, i installed inesoft address book 1.64 but though the program runs it doesnt fix the other issue.
Later: did some further testing and still no luck, have scoured the internet but just the usual dumb support help like check there are no programs running (i mean i can at least figure out to follow the error message instructions) , has anyone who used this rom got this problem or is it just me?
Contacts is the only activesync item selected and all the others work when tested. I even removed all entries from outlook contacts to test.
Still gives the same error! Any help will be greatly rewarded. (well thanked at least)
later: another bug seems to be the backlight that disactivates itsself from time to time and needs to be manually reactivated.
Once again, nice work, as I said, you always walk a step ahead. Tanks a lot for this release.
DarkForce's ROM already had 863 download for CHT rom , 527 download for WWE rom, 333 download for JPN rom ,192 download for GER rom ,134 download for CHS, 54 download for RUS rom , 53 download for DUT rom and 527 download for Radio rom 1.15.00 . very thank all of you like our rom , we are working at version 2.11.xx , please post your issue in here so we can correct it in version 2.11.xx , thanks again
DarkForce Team
first fo all, thy for that great german rom!!!! i just want to sent u a wish. would be great if u could include the usb hdd in the next version.
great work!
Suggestions:
Offer Two editions of each (with different sd size formatting -- size blocks)
Remove extra image files, music files and other files that dont need to be there.
Fix GPRS system. For India GPRS Networks (like Idea, Hutch, etc) when u set a profile for GPRS and APN and click the connect button nothing happens - it doesnt even try to locate the GPRS network.
Set default Higher Volume and higher bass by default since the media player n ringtones have lower volume by default.
Give the extra ROM all the extra cabs. If a user wants he can just delete it all using file manager else can use it for adding extra cabs if required. at the end of the day it makes no difference if its empty or not...the user can remove the files if required.
Integrate OMAP or whatever other Univeral Clocker there is and set it a higher but stable setting. Think of the speed we could get!
just a note
Hey there!
Love the rom. it really is one of the best.
Could you add the possibility to NOT get a sound when a normal sms is being sent? Its very annoying to hear that you sent an sms..
THANKS A MILLION!

Issue:
1) In test i have issue when stay connect usb and activesync (4.5) and do soft reset, universal freeze.
2) If setting only gsm (in registry) and do soft reset a time non always, freeze.
For test i have installed only SpbPocketPlus with close X active, and disable x from wm6. Rom radio 1.15 less delay that 1.14 and old version.
Best Regards
Very nice and reliable release but bluetooth headset causes occasional phone hangings. Same problem on every wm6 rom i flashed. Best bluetooth stack for my headset is in helmi 3.5 1.3.1
Thank u for the perferct work
The following is fe notes:
- the old office mobile icons (may be version, i don't know)
- The flight mode was not worked with me (closed all radios, but gsm didn't reactivate till i soft reset the jasjar)
- in a very few instances, the gprs was lost and a messeage that modem cannot be dialed come to me and i had to soft reset the device.
- once while the usb was connected, the devic freezed on incoming call.
I desire Italian language and ...videocall in your rom that is the best wm6.
Thanks.
This ROM is the Best !!!
European users hope that VideoCall tool will be ready soon........
Without videocall Universal seems bad........ this is my idea, guys.
nice job DarkForce
headset sign and incoming calls reception.
1 after you close the connection to a headset, for example to a car kit, the signal in the screen doesn't disappear.
2. times from the moment you receive a call and the button green to start the conversation takes some seconds (5 to 10).
3. what to change to have spanish language?
Tom Tom 601 issue
Hello,
With this rom I have strange situation with TomTom 6.01 - when I update 6.00 to 6.01 it says "no maps found" even if 6.00 was working fine and was with maps... Anyone noticed this problem???
Occasional lockups on softreset
Darkforce ROM (mine is WWE) is more stable than JW's (frequent lockups - don't know why). However, there are occasions when a sound alarm pops up, Uni hangs. One time softreset by poking the little hole will not normally get it to work only 4-5 times can resolve the frozen situation. Since it doesn't happen quite frequently (once per 2-3 days), I can do with it. Hope the upgrade will settle these issues.
I d like u can relese the CHS next version include CE-Star
Definitely the best WM6 ROM I've used so far! Great job!
My suggestion is that you not only unhide, but also unlock the Extended ROM. If you use some of the unlocking tools out there, they create a second folder called ExtendedROM, instead of unlocking the Extended_ROM. Which is a pain to deal with. The only thing that solved the problem was uni_ext_rom_unlock.exe which I found in this forum. It would be nice to have it unlocked already.
Thanks!
And once again - great work!
hi,
I noticed a couple of freeze when there is an incoming call and I only realised it when opening my universal and see the little box that pops up when there is a call.
Only solution is to reset
apart from this the rom is really nice
thanks and looking forward for an upgrade
This is the best ROM among the others so far, at least i found it more stable and no sudden lockup. I've been using this ROM for few days and experiencing only one lock-up so far, in which I was using intensively, Surfing with IE, MSN Messenger and Skype with LAN and GPRS connected.
I would expect the new update could fix / enable the keyboard backlight sensor. There are one or two minior issues on Bluetooth connection, but cannot re-produce at this point. I will report again if i can re-produce the probelm tonight.
Thanks
Pros/ Cons.. reccomendations
Hi Guys...
OK..
Reccomendations!
1. Make it vanilla!!
If not, then please make it so the voice control apps are installable by Cab. I prefer using MS Voice, and its a pain that i cant uninstall the other apps..
2. Fix Band issue!
Speaks for itself really!
3. Include scarybears checknotifications.
You have the same problem with this rom as a few others have had.. the same reason why prolonged usage always fails. Everytime an alarm is set, or reset takes place, there is a script or clock.exe entry made.. I use scarybear to "reclaim" this memory... It makes a HUGE difference!
4. Unlock & Unhide ExtendedRom as default
I know this has been asked before, however.. Make a cab to Hide it again...
5. Date / Time on one line!
Speaks for itself really!
6. Bottom bar thoughts....
OK.. The today plugin is a great acheivment.... However... There are some people (like me) who use Psshut... this still makes a bottom bar! Therefore the plugin is useless for me.. In fact it wastes the space on my screen.
So.. either make a cab to "add back" the bottom bar icons for comm-manager, power, backlight and orientation, OR make the plugin so it can add the icons from other programs!
7. Fix keyboard backlight Issue.
I know its a nice idea to have it react to keypresses.. but they sort of built in a sensor so it knew when it was needed! Not quite sure why yours doesnt activate the sensor.. but hey!
8. Fix the small errors in Buttons!
Not a biggie, but the icons are wrong under the buttons menu, and the text is missing on a couple...
By no means a full list, but all i had time for..
Dont get me wrong.. The rom is STUNNING. Still very fast, very stable, and apart from a few niggles... great in all aspects..
Keep up the good work!

i noticed that before and solved but i cant remember where is the problem exactly.
i think there is something with the connections or something like that
if it happened every short-time try to turn on flight mode, then check if it gone will be sure it is something with connection/phone

Hmmm but my rom is 5.2.318 (build 15341.4.0.01)
I tracked that down as being a problem with radio signal strength. Every time the radio signal strength changed it would wake up the phone. That was annoying, but I never found a fix for it since I upgraded to a different to a different ROM that doesn't have that problem. It may have been a problem caused by BatteryStatus's signal strength monitor though rather than the ROM's because it didn't start until I installed BS if I remeber right.
just lock the phone
before put the wizard in sleep mode. then it doesn't wake up when you dont neeD it

don't use a windows mobile password in WM6 (start -> settings -> lock). for mee it makes the phone wake up often. if I remove the password it doesnt wake up automaticly any more
hmm
maybe theres a ghost inside your wizard loll
I had a ghost in my wizard once, had it exorcised, and then it moved into my car. Now my car starts on its own!
Indeed I have a password. Furthermore I noticed that at the outset (WM6 + all software I'm using) the problem didn't exist at all. I think that it started after hard reset + system restore (spb backup).
I did some hard reset, but unfortunately the problem still exist (at least I think so, but today I will check it more thoroughly) HELP!
Here's what I would do if I wanted to keep my current rom - assuming it didn't have this behavior before (I've been known to be excessive at times ):
Back up your phone with something like PIM Backup or whatever you prefer - don't forget your themes, pictures, whatever.
Do a hard-reset.
Test for this symptom before installing any applications.
If the symptoms exist, try a different radio, if not, install BatteryStatus and test again.
Continue until you find the culprit.
Might take a while, but you should be able to find the issue...
its right said:
i noticed that before and solved but i cant remember where is the problem exactly.

I don't need to know the reason - I just need a solution?
BTW which one is the best WM6 ROM for wizard now?
The problem lies on having a both a password set and backlight settings on. Either remove the password or turn off the "turn off backlight if device unused for..." setting. It solved the problem for me!
You're right, but unfortunately I need the password :/
This weekend I switched to NBD 7.2 and the problem still exist.

If you need a password, then you'll have to go back to WM5. If you just want a password because you want to protect some files, then you should look into encrypting those files.
I hope that there is some way/there will be some rom to support device lock for Wizard's WM6
some WM6 roms seem to work with password.
I am still on a 'old' rom Wizard Reloaded 1.5 and there I can enable the password without waking up problems.
Just try with any rom, if it wakes up, remove the password. I suppose that's not such a big problem for most of us...you can still use Mobile Justice
I hope someone will find the exact cause (regkey probably) of this waking up problem, so any further roms wont have the problem anymore...
hilo,
Just created a new thread for this as its issues are pilling up the other one. i think that thread should be clean and should have only and only contain info about progress on the wm6 rom...
Mods if unnecessary please delete...

I would not call it a bug but one of the disadvantages of the ROM is that, similar to these ones which come to Qtek and i-mate, it does not recognise the network settings out of the box but you have to fiddle with them manually. When I use Orange ROMs (and it does not matter if the ROM comes from the UK or Switzerland) everything works with flying colours, despite I do not use any Orange network. Just I have to install Opera Mobile (I hate pocket IE) and voila! Everything works!
Channels don't work.
in india AFAIK channels just provide the cell id i.e the area which i m in... not imp though... no use of channels
ok phil.
if u remove windows update, at least supply it as a cab in the extras folder.
channels don't work.
long pressed side button does not work! it used to start voice note record for the sda and i'd like that to work.
mms.
better camera software. btw htc camera makes the phone SLOW..... not a good one. need an alternate
enable profile switching to silent when long pressing '#' key
default folder for saving pictures on storage card is not my documents\my pictures any more but a lame dcim folder. that would be nice to be changed.
also, sometimes when answering a call, the keyboard stays locked, the call is still on, but the home screen is active and not the call screen.
joystick seems much better but sometimes it doesn't want to work as it should. maybe another driver; if not, this one is good
we need wpa2 for wifi enabled.
also add in the extras folder:
moblue
tcpmp with extra codecs
htc audio manager could be good
if u need the cabs for moblue and htc audio, i have them
there is an newer version of sim manager. v6.10. has a couple of new things (got it if u need it)
and maybe add a good version of opera. not the java one.
we also need a good midlet manager
also a good instant messaging program. maybe a multi client one like oz mobile im, or like im+
mmmhhh after read all this bugs, i better wait a while to update my phone, i find a good idea to write here all the problems with the actually ROM.
Good AD2P drivers
Hi,
Is it possible to have good ad2p drivers with the next rom?
Tomtom 6
I have never been able to run tomtom 6 before the update.
Is it possible now with update? and also which is best version to install?
Kindest regards
I have Push mail configured and GPRS seems to be buggy. once or twice a day GPRS seems to stop working. My Activesync fails with (Can not connect to network or waiting for the network to be available), and in that mode even IE can not connect to any site. I switch off and on the phone function only, GPRS becomes available again.

Actually I would split your post in two separate ones.
1. the instability of WM6 Alpha - obvious thing, and it should be fixed
2. but I also see something else. I see from many posts that one application which sets all the settings with one click is quite urgently needed. I know that something like that exists for Swiss networks http://www.mysmartphone.ch/Freeware/kommunikation/16920.aspx and for the Norwegian ones http://www.smartmobil.no/Article617.phtml but I think that everybody would agree that such an universal solution would be something good. Unfortunately, I do not know anything about programming but I can imagine this kind of program and a separate database. The database would be filled by volunteers - I can, for example, provide all the settings of Polish operators, someone else British, French, etc. It would be good esp. for people who travel a lot.

TomTom 6 is made for Pocket PCs. It requires a touch screen to work, so you won´t be able to control it. I have had it running on my 8310 but it´s just silly to even have it installed. Go for 5.2 if you can find it.
I have problems syncing my contacts if i have more than 305 contacts.
The ActiveSync (or WMDC) hangs saying "attention required". Though, i can make 305+ contacts on the WM6 and sync them back to Outlook! But backwards i get 305 contact limit. Vey, very strange!
With previous ROM everything was ok.
I tried syncing with different PCs, tried unistalling ActiveSync and WMDC - no use. Deleting pim.vol doesn't help too.
ActiveSync on WM6 gives me 0x8503001c error.
Thanks for your help. I got my old one to work. I really like the colours in tomtom 6 tho.
Also on my phone i have a problem(s) with tomtom 5, I cant type in the post code B8 followed by anything like B8 3NU. Also I can't use certain Points Of Interest such as hospitals or cash dispensers. These work fine on my Wizard but I wana be able to do it all with TORNADO!
The software of dual sim selector don't works with that new rom (adapter of 10ª generation).
Well, I don't know if it works; the soft does not appear by any side.
I proved several solutions, but no it has worked to me.
Somebody can help me?
Thanks.
tejasphatak please rename the topic to "WM6 Torando bugs/issues" , so we can generally post bugs/issues regarding all WM6 tornado roms
Bugs:
1. The locklevel change to 1 randomly..
2. Sometimes the phone freeze when unloking kepyad.
It happened two times.
Issues:
1. When playing audio the CPU load is ~ 25-30% (@180 Mhz). It is normal ? (can someone with WM5 test?)
If using EQ and other effects the CPU load increase.
A taskmanager with cpu load info can be found here (it's for PPC but works also ,somehow, on smartphones)
More CPU load = more power = less battery
2. The system lags while writing to storage card (big cards, > 1gb). This issue is present on WM5 Tornado roms too (except iphone rom wich seems to deal better with sd).
Need a beter SD driver .
Same when copying via ActiveSync (has anyone tried usbfn driver from HTC VOX?)
3. when TCPMP is playing audio it keeps the backlight alive
Using andot's PEE V6.

Hello,
I've got a similar problem to this. It used to work fine until last week. I can't remember changing anything in my Hard/software setup but now it just hangs and only some of the contacts sync.
I've searched in the forum but can't seem to find any other reference to this problem. If anyone knows a solution (or any discussion of it) please let me know. Basic device info below:
SPV m3100 (HTC TyTN) running WM6
Windows Vista Home Basic
Windows Mobile Device Center
Thanks.
Hey guys, i've seen a number of different threads which "kind of" talk about this issue. I'm hoping to make this the definitive one. I'm on hour 10 of working to try to get this running..
(My apologies in advance if there is already one out there that i haven't found. i have been really looking and i think i tried it all... im sure thats what everyone says )
Hardware: HTC 8925 a.k.a At&t Tilt a.k.a TyTN II
Software: Duttys Official WM6.1 Release
Radio: 1.64.06.04
Provider: At&t (US)
Problem: BlackBerry Connect's "Identity" Tab reads "PIN: Pending"
I should also mention that i called At&t to confirm (prior to all of this) that i have a BBConnect service plan, it is active, and there is nothing on their end that would indicate a failure of any sorts.
Attempted Fixes (These have ALL failed):
I've tried every combination of having active sync enabled and disabled during bbconnect install.
I hard reseted before every install. Soft reseted after issue still occurred even after bbconnect install rebooted.
All tests were performed with the the HKLM\System\Versions Aku set to .0.4.2 as per Dutty's wiki: (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DuttySeriesKaiser)
I also tried various combinations such as .0.2.0 and .0.3.6 and .0.3.0
Even tired changing Device ID to HTC_P3450
Tried all of the following BBConnect software downloads:
4.0.0.84:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/o2-terra-bbconnect_wm6_professional_bb_4.0.0.84.cab
4.0.0.90:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bbconnect_wm6_pro_4.0.0.90.cab
4.0.0.91:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bbconnect_wm6_professional_bb_4.0.0.91.cab
4.0.0.92:
http://sems.org/content/download/bbc4/bbconnect_wm6_professional_bb.4.0.0.92.cab
Tried installing this one both by copying cab file over to local device and through device web browser:
4.0.0.97:
http://www.america.htc.com/mobile/connect/8925/
I'm installing from and installing to the local device memory, not the storage card..
i think i covered it all... oh, i didnt try the one HEX edit solution, because i didnt think its applicable to dutty's rom..
can ANYONE please help?!
---------------UPDATE--------------------
Okok...so problem solved... i thought i read something similar to this solution somewhere.. but..well whatever... frustrations are over (the problem always seems to find a way to fix itself after you post help for it! )
Process:
1. Hard Reset (set up initial settings, connect to provider, its a total of two reboots iirc)
2. Change registry setting (HKLM\System\Versions Aku set to .0.4.2)
3. Soft Reset
4. Change Device ID to any value (Settings->System->About->Device ID)
5. Soft Reset
6. Install BBConnect 4.0.0.97 via device browser from http://www.america.htc.com/mobile/connect/8925/
7. Installation reboots system
8. Disable 3G connection, force to use EDGE via wireless connection manager
9. Device receives PIN, activates, etc..
10. Enable 3G connection
Notes:
1. So i dont know if items 2,3,4, and 5 were really required.. after preliminary testing, everything works fine with the 3g connection turned on after initial registration.
2. I noticed that the BBConnect Today icon kept showing an exclamation mark indicating its outgoing connection was being blocked. Also the status window kept showing that the connection was suspended by the user, when i never did anything.. so i tired disabling the 3G and sure enough.. problem solved..
Hope this saves someone out there the headache i've been going through.. oh well.. back to the girlfriend who i've been ignoring for the last 10 hours... (hopefully im not in that much trouble )
wooooooooooooooooooot, thx for the solution.
Man...thanks a lot for all the help...it worked like a charm...and i am using it here in dubai...uae where the black berry doestn support the kaiser offically
cheers bro
Great work man, great work for users who uses BBConect
3G still working?
Quick question for those who tried the (disabled 3G to Edge) and then re-enabled 3g.
Does your 3g still work? Have your tried to place calls in 3G mode? I am on my third Tilt, the prior two times I lost 3g after installing blackberry connect, and I want to see if anyone else has this problem, before a try a third time.
Note: On my previous two phones all worked well when I downgraded to GPRS (Edge) as described, but I never got back 3g (even after flashing and removing BBConnect)

I added this post to Dutt's WIKI and gave you due credit for your hard work.
Now if only someone can figure out how to force WM to do multiple APNs and BBConnect would be perfect!
Strange... All I had to do with my Tilt was set the AKU to .0.4.2 or .0.4.4 in the registry before installing the BB Connect software.
I've used the .92 & .97 installers from CAB files on my SD card just fine.
If you change the AKU version after the BB software is installed, it won't work right, as it will still drop the connection. You'll have to reinstall the software.

Quick Question
So to those of you who have BB Connect running, is all well with your 3G? Thanks for your help, I want to hear a few success stories before a walk down this path again
so I followed the steps, and got everything installed and turned off. I'm trying to get an unlocked tilt on my blackberry account on t-mobile.
The problem is its installed, but the email options are greyed out. We don't use an exchange server (or if we do it is configured very wrong) as I have pop3 information on my t-mobile blackberry page. It says I register successfully on the network, but I still don't receive emails. What do I need to chnage?
edit: fixed - I had to get back online and say yes that I had a new pin.
THANKS!!

that is the same problem I have left now, almost like hardware related.
does AT&T default one can do multiple APNs? as it is officaly support BBC.
I installed Blackberry Connect and I am using it with a Blackberry Enterprise Server.
But I see in order to have the BB icon, the GPRS is always attached. Should it work like this ? I know/knew that with Blackberry phones it attaches to GPRS only when incoming email is coming, and only with Microsoft Directpush technology it stays attached all the time.
If it works like this ( Always On ), is there a difference between BB Connect for WM, and Outlook with Microsoft Direct Push ?
Yours,
Alex

This link doesn't seem to work, it's actually supposed to be:

The problem is, when you click "install now" it still can't find the cab. The 4.0.0.97 cab is now mirrored here:

Do you have a link for desktop manager?
I have the version 4.x.17 and cannot connect with the bb on the pda.
I don't know which is the latest or most compatible version for desktop mgr having in consideration what you have in the pda. please, give me some light...

Has anybody an idea how this will work on a Pharos / HTC P3470? I just tried it described in this taks, but without success.
I had 2 dots and an x
I updated to Dutty's ROM today, and had problems with BBC.
So I searched, found this page and did exacty as told. No luck. Tried again. No luck.
So I went to Start/Settings/Connections/Connections and then clicked on 'Manage existing connections' and changed the settings (default on Dutty's ROM). [To do that click 'Edit' and change the 'Access point name' from isp.cingular to wap.cingular. Click next and change the 'User name' from ISP.CINGULARGPRS.COM to WAP.CINGULARGPRS.COM]
This worked for me. This info is for noobs, of which I am one!
I have just updated my TyTN II to WM6.1 and bbconnect (version 4.0.97) stopped working. Basically it had PIN marked as pending and was reporting no connection.
I have executed only step 2 (change hklm) and 3 (soft reset) from elec.two procedure and it resolved my issue - bbconnect works now. I have not reinstalled the bbconnect.
