Issues with Alpha Wm6 Rom

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.

BT DUN hack?
The BT DUN hack works on the Faria and the Ingenetics roms (318), but does not work on the ported roms after them. Can you verify if it will work on this rom you are porting? Attached is the package for the hack.

It worked fine on WM5. I used to use a custom 2.26 WM5 ROM - I forget who made it -one of the more popular ones, though.
I've only used TNT3.0 and TNT4.0 for WM6 - someone in your "TNT5 coming soon" thread reported that it used to work in TNT 2.0
Also, you can sign up for a free mail2web.com account if you want/need to test DirectPush email.

Unfortunately, I don't have a BT dongle on my PC so I can't test this. Famewolf was testing this for me when I was working on XM6r3. Basically allows your PC to connect to your phone for network access the way it worked in WM5. While Internet Sharing is the main way on WM6, some prefer the old way due to the way the connection works. I believe on Windows you setup a dialup networking connection to your Phone (the BT port will show up as a com port). Sorry, thats about all I know bout it, but again, its an important feature for some (especially people that use Linux and Mac for thier main computer).

In a nutshell the old method of bluetooth DUN created a bluetooth com port and you just setup a normal dial up networking connection. This is the method linux and mac have supported forever. The new method of "internet sharing" uses bluetooth pan and creates a new "network card" instead of a serial port. This requires changes to how you set it up.
*Note*..I can use both internet sharing via the pand daemon on linux and the older bluetooth dun method. All those cheap $5 bluetooth dongles that have mac id's of 11:11:11:11:11 will NOT work with internet sharing because the mac id of a network card has to be valid....you will be able to get an ip address but not actually surf to anywhere...ping's won't respond..these same dongles work fine with bluetooth dun.
Internet sharing does have it's benefits...you get dropped connections alot less..you don't have to "dial back in"...but the process is much more complicated to connect for non windows users. On the other hand it's a much simpler process for windows users. I'll try to answer any questions.
If your phone supports Bluetooth dun when you do a search of available services you should see Dial up networking listed as one of them:

I forgot to mention..some rom's already come with a "modem link" application for IR and USB....note bluetooth dun is gone...these applications have the SAME name as the hacked application ATC<something>.exe....
I have no idea if the hacked exe is a drop in replacement..on XM6R3 the registry edits make the bluetooth dun service always run in the background similar to how other phones work.

I'm by no means an expert, but the article here:

says:
Because the entire Direct Push process is done via a standard Internet socket connection, the key advantage is that no special network provisioning or setup is required anywhere. There is no need for your telco to offer support or perform a special “provisioning” for you, unlike a Blackberry.

I believe that's the case. For most users it's just a matter of finding a service that pushes email, like Consilient Push. It involves installing an application on the device that links to the email server.

VOIP troubleshooting

Hi everyone. since the past 4 or 5 days, i've been cracking my head to get VOIP working on my lovely VOX. i'm using Dr. Gonzo New Guava Rom. Pheww...finally i manage to get VOIP working. Unfortunately, in the process of making it, i experienced almost all known problems and difficulties that some people don't have to go through. So i thought i can contribute something here.
I followed the instruction by eluth, discussed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299950
so i don't want to repeat the procedure that already been discussed in that thread. My point here is to share my experience solving these problem:
1. after following eluth's instruction, i manage to get 'Internet Calling: Available' on the homescreen. however when i click on the homescreen plugin, nothing happen. so i found a thread here to use VM VI Black VOIP & Config.CAB, instead of WM6VoIP.cab. So i did. and on the homescreen it now says 'NONOH: Searching...'. (ps: i used nonoh.net voip)
2. okay, my second problem started here. I couldnt get the voip to register to the server. it said 'searching' then changed to 'no service' after a 30 sec. at first i thought i didnt setup the _setup.xml file correctly. so i kept changing my _setup.xml until i was really sure that i didnt do any mistake that. and i was right about that. apparently, i found that my VOX is setup to have IP Passthrough. after turning the option off, wallaa..it now said 'NONOH: Selected'.
3. unfortunately my problem didnt finish just yet. when i make a call, i cannot hear anything from either internal speaker or loudspeaker. so again, i did my research, cracking my head again. i almost give up now. so then i found someone suggesting to change rtcdll.dll file. my vox now working..yuhuuu!! i can now hear from loudspeaker clearly, no lagging and the sound quality is great.
4. just to make my day worse, i found another rtcdll.dll file, so i thought, why not try this one, maybe i can hear through internal speaker if i use this one. and when i changed it..my voip messed up again. i cant hear anything again. so i changed back to the working rtcdll.dll file. unfortunately..i cannot get it to work again. i end up hardreset my vox and start the process again, and now my vox is voip ready again.
conclusion:step to victory:
1. followed eluth instruction to set your voip account.
2. install WM VI Black P&W Patch.cab and reboot
3. using Total Commander, replace rtcdll.dll. (do not turn on your VOIP just yet)
4. reboot again
5. go to setting>phone>internet calling> use internet calling whenever available
6. hopefully by this stage you can see 'yourVOIPprovider: available' on the homescreen. click it and it will change to 'selected'
here i attach the file needed..thanks to the developer of the cab
Good Luck!!
Regards,
fikrinasir

Hi
I previously set up VOIP folowing the instructions you mentioned.
First problem I had was that my audio was not heard, but I found that for XS4ALL (my proivder) I need to use a different audio codec and found some instructions:
Enter in the registry:
HKLM\Comm\RTC\codec (create codec key if it doesn't exist)
UsePreferredCodec DWORD 1
PreferredAudioCodec DWORD 8
This got it working for outgoing calls with the external speaker.
There are two problems though:
- The today screen keeps saying sip.xs4all.nl:Searching... Strangely enough I can make sip calls!
- I can make calls but cannot be called. When I call myself from a different phone I get my voicemail. I did check that the account itself works on my laptop.
I tried your rtcdll.dll but saw no difference. The other file you posted contains key mappings - what were they for?
If I use Fring for VOIP it works for both incomming and outgoing calls, but the quality when I use the native VOIP is better so I would prefer to get this to work for the incomming calls.
I have the following in my provisioning setup file:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="VoIP">
<parm name="SIPSettings"
value="<provision key='1232ab01' name='XS4ALL'>
<provider name='XS4ALL' />
<user account='0871234567' password='abc12345'
uri='sip:[email protected]'
allowedauth='digest'/>
<sipsrv addr='sip.xs4all.nl:5060' protocol='UDP' role='proxy'>
<session party='First' type='pc2pc' />
<session party='First' type='pc2ph' />
</sipsrv>
<sipsrv addr='sip.xs4all.nl:5060' protocol='UDP' role='registrar'/>
</provision>" />
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
If anyone got it working for incoming calls I would be pleased to hear what you did.
Mike

Which MS Voice Command version works

Anyone know which one works properly with bluetooth and announcements?
thanks

MS Voice Command
I use MS Voice Command v1.60.4622.0; it works fine . I've made an update from the older Version v1.5, which didn't work on the TD1 either.
I have to admitted, my TD2 arrived only 3 days ago, so I couldn't use voice command for hours, but making a call ist very easy, the speaker of the TD2 is of good quality.

and what about announcing incoming calls by dictating the caller ID name or incoming phone number? I was trying it with MS VC 1.6.19971 without success :-/

Hi,
which button is VC using?

Rodik

Can you tell me which button you remaped?

no one knows? i tried every button in the list and also its not possible to set it up as a new one.... damn i need this!!!

You can map it in settings, personal, buttons. Select MS voice command from the list on the right. This will then also work with bluetooth headset button.
I can't get incoming caller announce to work on any UK version.

no, there is only button 1 shown!
also i need this for a wired headset, no bluetooth crap

I'm using MS Voice Command v1.60.4622.0 and everything works as it should. I have mapped the long press call button and it works with a bluetooth button as well. It works with both hands free units I have in our two cars and also with the Garmin Zumo on my motorbike. Caller id announcements work also as long as your bluetooth unit supports that function.

ok, it works for me with bluetooth as well, but i want to use the button og my ear phones! i love music and there is not good solution for bluetooth. so in the next days i get an adapter to use my high performace era pohnes and i would like zo use vc with the button on this adapter! the problem is it doesnt work with the one includet!! so please dont tell me it works with the blue one!!

ok, got it!
go to:
hklm\software\oem\voicecommand\
create string key "Path" value "\program files\voice command\voicecmd.exe" or whatever

Did you fix call announcements?
This registry edit gets announcements to work:
Edit this registry key:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce\Category
Change from VoiceCommand1 to Ring
It should now work, but sounds level is low. To increase the sound level, I did this edit:
HKCU\Control Panel\Sound Categories\Voice Command1\AttenutationCategory
I set it to 4 which is decent, you can go to 5, but I see no difference going louder. Using 0 or 1 will make it whisper quiet.
If that does not make it louder, then edit:
HKCU\Control Panel\Sound Categories\Ring\AttenutationCategory
Same thing, set to 4 or 5.

damn, doesnt work for me...!

Did you restart?
Edit:
This fixed it on my TD2 with MSVC UK1.6, the same version loaded on a Touch Diamond this fix didn't work. This program really is so odd.

sure, not only once, i also spend some time waintig, thought it could take a while but nothing! using vc1.60.4622uk... i think i will wait for wm 6.5 and the new integrated vc

I had problems with starting via Key 1.
I made a shortcut of voicecmd.exe und assigned the shortcut to key 1.
Works now via key 1.
Bluetooth headset key worked before.

Hi,
What i did, to get MS Voice Command v1.60.4622.0 French version
retail, working with bluetooth Callerid's announcement:
i installed it (ps: dont forget to activate the notification via bluetooth, obvious but i forgot that before trying many manipulations ;-) )
All worked except notification via bluetooth
(i eared the ringtone instead of callerid)
i tried to replace some V.C files by the 1.6.192.13, because that was working with my Kaiser stock rom 6.1(but noway with the Topaz)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2186001&postcount=254
(also tried with 192.14, 199.71,199.65,19209 but be careful some of the VoiceCommand_PPC.cpl versions made my topaz always rebooting the key to solve that worry was to replace via activesync the cpl file before the pin prompt, via explorer from desktop in the topaz/windows folder )
finally i uninstalled all, reinstalled retail 1.60.4622, Desactivated voice command (step quoted below perhaps not necessary, up to you)
And replaced the three files
VoiceCommand_PPC.cpl in /windows
VoiceCommandWMP.dll in \program files\voice command\
voicecmd.exe in \program files\voice command\
by those version 1.6.192.13
(ps: replacing VoiceCmdRes_PPC.dll with v1.6.192.13 as said in the link above made voicecommand crash when activating it)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
All was working except the bluetooth announcement:
After i tried the regedit (backup first !!) given at the begining of that thread
hklm\software\oem\voicecommand\
created string key "Path" value "\program files\voice command\voicecmd.exe"
Edited this registry key:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce\Category
i renamed the DATA of the string "category" from:
"VoiceCommand1" to "Ring"
to increase the volume i set to 4 the AttenutationCategory in
HKCU\Control Panel\Sound Categories\Voice Command1\
After a reset, announcements via bt are working

Does MSVC work with the newer Sakajati ROMs based on 6.5 or not. I have a tad of ADD and can't keep up

Disabling Bluetooth headset initiated dialing (my own solution)

After searching for hours and hours for a way to disable voice dialing + dial last number function from my Bluetooth headset, i've decided to code my own solution, in a form of AT commands audio gateway extension. Since others may find this useful as well, i am packing it in a cab and posting it here.
All it does is putting a small audio gateway extension replacement DLL (just 4kbytes) in windows directory and changes the MS audio gateway extension settings in registry to use this replacement DLL. All the DLL does is responding with "ERROR" on the voice dial and last number dial commands from the headphone, that it. This does the trick.
To install: install the cab, reset the device
To uninstall: remove using the system control panel, reset the device
As simple as that. No guaranties. It replaces a system DLL functionality after all, don't blame me if renders your device unbootable, unusable, blows it up or even kills you... well, you know the drill, use it on your own risk. I'll be happy if someone else finds this useful.

it is embarrassing when you don't know about calling somebody
I appreciate your perfect solution
installed in kaiser with WM 6.5 OS and nokia BH-102
I tried many things and it is working perfectly
thanks

Thanks worked perfect for my wired headphones with a faulty call button.

Wired headphones?! Are you sure? Cause i would really doubt any wired headphones would allow AT commands audio gateway extension, or, in fact, communicate using AT commands.
But, if it really works... if the system actually simulates those commands and passes those through the extension... maybe i'll finally make my wired remote work with something other than the damn AudioManager program.
I am too lazy to go to my car right now (thats where the wired remote currently is), but tomorrow i am totally going to see if this really blocks the call button on that wired remote. If it does, i am going to see if the other buttons also pass through the extension, and, well, you know whats next. But i really really doubt it, its probably just a coincidence or something.
Thanks for the info.

Yes wired headphones? mine are just cheap hands free ones off ebay but pressing the button does nothing now,which is great it use to dial my last number sometimes without pressing it too.

I tried it on HD2 (Leo) but it is not working
is there any way to let it works on it
thanks in advance

I found the BT audio gateway service not loading the dll on startup on some of the devices. Try installing SK tools, go to services menu, stop the BT Audio Gateway service and then start it again, while having my cab installed. If it suddenly works and blocks the dial button after the service restart, then there may be a 'solution', as simple as making a little app that restarts the service after the device is fully loaded. Not a perfect solution, but well, if it works, then why not.
BTW, can someone point me to the right direction on how to restart WM services programatically ? What API does this ?

thanks for quick response
I tried what you said. I used Task Manager v2.9 the BT Audio Gateway already stopped and I could not start it
it says the system cannot open the device or file specified.
I have replaced the dll file manually and still
when I clicked "find in registry" it is located in HKLM/Services/BTAGSVC
BTAGSVC.dll

Replaced the DLL manually ? The BTAGSVC one ? With mine ?!?! Don't !!!
Read my post again to understand how the trick works. My DLL is by no means not a BTAGSVC replacement. What i means in my last post is that for some reason, when BTAGSVC initially loads, at the device start, it won't load the AT extension DLL (my one). I would assume this may happen because the file system is not mounted yet, or some similar reason, i don't know. And the reason i told you to try restarting the BTAGSVC is to try & see if it helps to start the service when the device is fully loaded.
Again, do not replace the BTAGSVC with my DLL, you can lose the BT audio functionality this way.

no I did not replace BTAGSVC with yours (BTAWGS)
I tried exactly what you have said. I was saying that service belongs to this file as stated in registry.
you told me te restart the service and I told the service is already stopped plus I could not start it for that error
recently I could not find BTAWGS dll file in windows folder
my question: this dll file (BTAWGS) does it exist in the original rom and your cab replace it?
regards

from my readings in this great forum
I think the bluetooth stack especially in hd2 is different than other htc devices and it is has different driver
it is WIDCOMM driver, is that true?
if so that means your file isn't gonna work

If the device is using non-MS Bluetooth stack - there is a near-100% chance my trick is not going to work, sorry.

thanks for the direction
but if I want to edit the dll file
what is the best program to do so
and what is the values that I have to change
can you tell me what you have changed in your dll file

Just in case anyone is still interested, i've now got an HD2 and found a way to disable the bluetooth dial on it. It's a bit nasty/hackish, though. Do the following:
1) Copy the "BTTrayCE.exe" from the device to your PC using any available method.
2) Open the "BTTrayCE.exe" with any available hexeditor
3) Look for "+BLDN" and "+BVRA", replace them with something like "xxxxx"
4) Replace the file in Windows directory with the patched file using any available means.
NOTES: The "BLDN" stands for "Bluetooth - Last Dialed Number", "BVRA" stands for "Bluetooth Voice Recognition Activation", those are, in fact, the AT commands your bluetooth headset sends to the phone when you push that nasty button by mistake.
