Hi,
Running WIZARD with IPL/SPL=2.26 with TNT 5.0 ROM.
Has anyone experienced screen alignement problems before (only with WM6 ROMS). Screen once aligned, looses its settings after some time. The tap at the screen doesn't work accurately. e.g. while typing from the soft-keyboard tapping at 'd' prints 'a' and the 'X' doesn't close the applications.
I have to align the screen every once in a while to keep it going. Is this a known issue. If yes, what is the fix?
Thanks for cooking and sharing those beautiful WM6 Roms!

Sorry to post in the Tornado forum guys, but I'm trying to solve a problem and I think only you guys can help me. I've got TomTom 5 installed on the Moto Q but after starting the program, the screen is oriented in portrait mode, however, the Q is natively in landscape.
Unfortunately, the displayed images are unreadable and just jumbled. I know that there is an option within TomTom to rotate the screen but without being able read the screens, its a practice in futility.
Can someone that has TomTom installed on their Tornado do me a favor. Can you walk me through the exact steps and button presses from the launch of the program to the rotate screen option. The button should look like an upside down smiley face.
I'm hoping that if I correctly hit the button sequence, the screen will rotate and that I'll be able to make the menus and program legible. Cheers.
Just wondering if anyone knows if there is a screen lock for Tomtom software. I have the polaris running V7 of tomtom. The problem is I use it with the motorbike and earpiece.
So basically I set the destination, drop it in my pockets and listen for directions however the screen needs to be active. If it looses focus or the screen goes blank then directions updates stop. Otherwise the screen keeps getting pressed while riding so directions get interrupted.
Anyway I can get around this. tom tom screen lock would be great.
Hi Dusty, I'm a biker too so I already faced (and solved) that!
There are two problems using TomTom as we need to use:
1. if Polaris goes in sleep mode (blank screen), TomTom looses focus and stops working;
2. random screen taps (typically wen you store your PDA in a pocket) can of course modify/interrupts itineraries.
To solve both of them, I suggest you not to use any third parties' screen lock.
Just do as follows:
set your battery saver off (so your Polaris never get sleep);
launch TomTom and choose your destination;
go back to WM without quitting TomTom (you can easily do that setting one of the hw buttons to launch "Today" screen);
use stock WM screen lock
enjoy your ride
Hi
Could you, please, explain what is "stock WM screen lock" exactly?
Does it a 3rd party application itself?
I have TomTom V6. I stops to respond when it goes to the system tray, which means that the trick with "Today" is not good enough for TT V6.
Regards.
PS. Correction: I was wrong, TomTom V6 works when in the system tray
The stock WM screen locker is an utility I've found preloaded on my Polaris so I do believe is a standard WM tool (see first picture, it's the red rounded icon).
I also have TT6 (see second picture) and it continues to work fine when I press the Hw button that brings me to "Today" (I assigned the "explorer" button, but you can configure any other Hw command).
Thank you very much, deepblue68
I was wrong, your advise works fine!
Best regards!
Hmmm
I think the key is disabling screen saver/poweroff which is what it will do when on the home screen.
I have re-felashed my phone now and can't find a lock function (do know what you are talking about. Sure its just a little menu option somewhere.
Hello
Well I should say this two programs cant show calendar on home screen in WM 6.5. I didnt find any program for that matter which would show appointments on home screen.Fix in registry maybe anyone?
Hi
The scrolling home screen on Windows 6.5 is essentially a program that runs and hides the standard home screen. Unless the program has been updated or written to work with this new scrolling home screen you will not see anything.
If you disable the scrolling home screen (disable it in Today settings) you will see it appearing on the standard Windows mobile home screen.

Well I use Windows mobile home screen.It is not problem in showing the program.Program shows normal,the only thing that doesnt show are appointmens and sms on home screen inside that program.Its blank in the midle and on the left you can see shortcuts for the appointments,tasks,sms and mail,adress book.I tried two 6.5 roms and both have same problem.Everything works normal in three WM 6.1 roms that I tried.

hello,
every time i use the D-Pad my SIP-keyboard disappears.
this is very annoying.
i have this problem on hermes (checked different ROMs)
i know this does not have to be that way. i checked wizard (original ROM) and blueangel (WM6.5 ROM).
on both devices the SIP keyboard stays on screen when i use D-Pad.
does someone have a solution for this ?
thank you in advance.
It's a minor interface bug but really want to know why it occurs in every wm 6.5.x rom I've flashed to my wizard. So this version of wm has reworked interface, and it has different tab selection mode. in 6.5 there were tabs on bottom of screen just on top of soft keys, but wm 6.5.x has one stripe were those tabs can be selected. So in every rom I've flash only power and backlight setting menu has oldstyle menu instead of new one. Where is the problem? )) and if someone noticed it before maybe there is a fix?
