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.

Blackberry client on WM 6?

I was wondering if anyone has got the Blackberry client working on a Treo 750v running WM6?

The BB connect don't work with WM6 actually...
from Palm : Do not Install this update if you are using Blackberry Connect (BBC). Palm Windows Mobile 6 does not support the BBC service...

this is a BB connect CAB...made by HTC
it's basically made for AT&T tilt (8925) = Kaiser
I guess it'll work with any WM6 pro device...

Tried this and it won't work for me.
Has anyone actually got this working on a Treo750?

It gets an IP for about a second but then it drops it.

Same here w/ 750c. Gets an IP address for a few seconds and drops to no connection. BTW I am using BBC 4.0.0.90, you can find it on sems.org. I wonder if anyone w/ the Voda or the Aussie ROM would give a shot to this BBC version to see if it makes any difference.
Thanks,
HC

I guess it's the same problem as elsewhere, where you need to change the machine type in window.nb (I think). Only problem is I can't find an easy explanation of how to do this.

I was trying BBC 4.0.0.90 with Voda ROM and no luck.

Strange thing today on my 750c - Got PIN
Hi all,
It seems that something is changing w/ either RIM or ATT. I installed again today BBC 4.0.0.90 onto my 750c w/ WM6 ATT leaked ROM, after the normal reboot, surprisingly, BBC service connected to the network and I got a PIN. Clearly it said "Connected" on the status tab. Well, I connected the device to my laptop and ran the BBC Desktop, the system was provisioned properly (I think ...), Notes Backend, but now it fails to connect to Blackberry, same symptoms as before, even after multiple soft resets, see comments above. I'll play around some more w/ it and let you all know if I get anything to work. In the mean while, if anyone else has any success, please share ....
Good luck
HC

I have WM 6.1 installed using BB Connect 4.0.0.97 and its a no go. Oddly enough, I tried the same thing on an earlier Vodaphone WM5 ROM and it still didn't work...any suggestions?
Btw, I get the same issues as above, I have a PIN listed (and IP address for a short time if I Suspend and Resume) but then when I attempt to input the PIN into my online BIS account and switch devices is says the information can't be verified.

Wizard ROM, TomTom 720 & DUN

So I thought I had found ROM nirvana with ver 5.1.2 of mattr_k's (and then continued by the loon) ROM kitchen based on the ingenetics build. I had everything set just the way I liked it with all the programs I wanted and none I didn't, lots of free memory, good response yadda yadda yadda... I figured I was good as far as flashing until I picked up a Kaiser in a month or three.
Then I bought a Tom Tom 720 as a GPS device. It uses bluetooth to transfer data to access the TomTom Plus services that include traffic. The problem is that it requires a DUN modem connection on the bluetooth. From what I have been able to gather, this was available on WM5, taken out in an AKU pack and then re-deployed with WM6, which is why I was surprised that the ROM I was running didn't have it.
I saw that mfrazzz's ROM v3 says that DUN is back, but the lite doesn;t have what I need and the full has stuff I don't want, so even though I know that he builds awesome ROMs I kind of got used to the personalized feel of using the kitchen to get just what I want.
Does anyone know of DUN is present in ver 5.2.5 of theloon's ROM, or if there is a easy way to add DUN capabilities to my current setup? I guess I could extract mfrazzz's ROM and take out what I don;t want and add what I need, but I am traveling on business this week and don;t have a lot of spare time and need my device to be up and running.
Thanks much in advance.

UPDATE
I found this posting by Meneisyys http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=2121&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1 and I seem to be getting further along than before but I am not there yet, which I suspect is due to Tom Tom since it is asking me for wireless carrier data and giving me two cingular options as well as AT&T wireless.
***
Okay I think the meneisyys hack definitely worked since the 720 now says that it can use wireless data services, which it didn't before but none of the settings seem to work. It asks for a phone type and carrier. I have been trying the Qtek9100 since that is on the list and an equivalent to the 8125, but it also has a couple of MDA options as well. It gives me three carrier providers, AT&T, Cingular and Cingular media works. I have tried all three and no joy.
I also tried setting it up manually with the following settings but no love
access point: wap.cingular
username: [email protected]
password: cingular1
Auto DHCP
Auto DNS & Manual to 208.67.222.222 (open dns)
Dial *99# and *99****1#
login script +cgdcont=1,"ip","wap.cingular"
Any ideas on what these shoudl be or if I should be looking at the Tom Tom or the phone as the source of the problem?
Thanks!!!

Bluetooth DUN profile
Here is the perfect fix for your problem.
This is not my work I found it in this forum and credit should go to person who ever created this cab file.\
Now lets move on
install this cab and then do soft reset
now your tomtom should be able to pick-up dun connection from your PDA
now you can setup connection from your tomotom using cingular/att settings.

villaboy - Thanks for the tip but still no love from the Tom Tom after this. I also noticed that it does not seem to want to set up bluetooth phone capability or address book import now, just wireless data so not sure if this is a step forward or backward

If you want to cook it into your own rom, here's the package I created and used for XM6r3.

Thanks.. I may give theloon's newer version a shot. I was hoping to get the GPS working without having to cook and flash a new ROM. Oh well, if it was easy...

UPDATE & more questions
So I decided to give theloons 6.1 a shot and lo and behold I was able to get my TomTom 720 to play nice with my phone. Then I figured out the difference.
I always install registry wizard, make the reg changes I want, and then uninstall it. I may not be the most elegant, but it works for me. One of the tweaks I always check is, "always have GPRS connected on the 3rd tab"
This time I set up the GPS before I installed reg wizard. Once I installed Reg WIzard and enabled the tweak, the GPS stopped connecting so I started playing.
It turns out that if I have an active GPRS connection the TomTom will not connect. I always leave the GPRS connection active so I can get push mail from my work's exchange server. Does anyone know of a way that these two things can co-exist?

MMS Slow....taking 3 hours for person to get message

I have tried to mess around with 6.1 lately and for some reason I am not able to figure this out.....
I get everything working, for what I think but then I keep having problems with the MMS. I will send my wife a test message and it takes over 3 hours to get to her. When I am running WM6 with radio 1.27.14.09 it works fine, takes less then 2 minutes to get to her phone.
Now before you start grilling me, I have done a google search. I have found problems such as
1. unable to send at all - not my problem
2. MMS not working - not my problem again (works just really slow)
3. Use this cab, use that cab, I have tried them all they don't change the issue
4. Make sure your going through MEdiaNet - I am
So what I am asking, is anyone else experiencing this problem???? The only thing I have looked into is it possibly an arcsoft issue???

I don't know if this will help, but I'm finding that with the 6.1 roms on AT&T that if you allow the Network Configurator to run, various things don't seem to work quite right. I was having issues with WeatherPanel not working on the AT&T network. I've now flashed 3 different 6.1 roms in the last couple of days and did not allow the network config to setup the AT&T settings, and then disabled it (when the next screen came up). After doing this, I then ran the remove hidden proxy cab and the WAP/MMS setup cab and then did a soft reset. Now MMS works fine (I never had the 3 hour delay you described, but I did have other issues with MMS on some of the roms) and WeatherPanel also now works (haven't had a problem with it in over 24 hours where before it might or might not work, then would stop working a few hours later).
Like I said, may not help your situation, but something to consider and try.
NOTE: The method I just laid out will NOT set up isp.cingular. Only Cingular GPRS and MEdiaNet. This is how I used to always run my Wizard and dumped the $40 per month PDA Connect plan for the $20 per month Unlimited MEdiaNet.

I could hug you!!!! Oh my god, do you feel my love...do you feel me humping your leg!!!!!! It worked,,,,absolutely amazing....Thank you!!!!

Glad it worked for you, but wow, not sure about the extent of the emotion you are sending in my direction... LOL
So for future people that hit this, did you remove the other settings, just install these two cabs, hard reset and follow my above directions, or what? Just curious myself as I'd like to get to the bottom of what goes wrong (or is missed) with the Network Configuator process for AT&T.

To tell you the truth, it stopped working later that night!! I had Dutty's ROM installed , hard reseted , installed the two cabs and it worked. Then I tried sending another pic to make sure it worked about 10 minutes later.... I took 5 hours to get to my wifes phone....
It has to do something with the radio's. I tried a bunch and none work. I'll just wait till the Official 6.1 comes out for ATT and look at the settings.....
Thanks anyways!!!

if your phone said message sent then it arrived 3 hours later to the recipient then its a network problem not really to do with your phone but just incase look at other radios.

Looks like this just changes some TCP parameters and such. Is that correct? So you would use this in addition to the WAP MMS cab I posted earlier I assume.

It changes some TCP parameters and puts in the IP header compression and the DNS servers.

I really do not know what the problem is.... those didn't work either. It honestly might be something in my area, South Florida. I tried with the new radio, those files and vice versa. I am dumfounded.
As soon as I flashed back to 6.0 and used the 1.27 radio it sends immediately. It must have something to do with the radio and my area.
I appreciate all the assistance

I have the same problem. I received my tytn II 2 days ago. Previously I used the se K800i. With the k800i, there was never a problem when sending sms messages. Always very fast to send and receive but now on my kaiser, it takes a long time before my messages are received or till I receive an sms message.
Still on the stock rom version 1.56.404.6
radio: 1.27.12.32

hi, first of all, I would like to ask you to : please....flash the ROM using the latest WM6.1 official ROM from the imate website...I think that WILL FIX ur problem...I use imate9502, and this device is really ultimate for me

Yes the unit is working fine and good, just the problem is the Messaging and internet feature.
I do flash to 6.1 version 1.73 and curretly use 1.77 (official) still same result. i don't know what is the problem even imate personell also haven't gv me any new since 2 months ago
I go to registry but still can't find any hint
The setting for the MMS,GPRS, all already correct ( using manual and imate configurator ) no hope also.

Hi h9s,
I've found your post googling for something else. I suppose you have already solved your problem with internet connection by now. Please, disregard this post in this case. Anyway, I wonder if you have already changed the GPRS authentication method. Go to Start > Settings > Connection tab > GPRS Authentication. Its defaulted to CHAP. Change it to PAP instead and give it a try.
Just my 2 cents...
Cheers!
Carlos

Cannot update imate configurator
Hi I cannot connect through my GPRS, seems like something wrong with the connection setting. Currently I'm using Satelindo (Indonesia), and I tried to download the imate configurator file from https://www.imate.com/Support_OperatorSettings.aspx but when I try to install it always says The previous version must uninstalled before, and when I click yes, it always failed to uninstall the previous version & the instalation unsuccesfull. Anyone could help me? Thanks in advance

You see, I find i-mate's Configurator to be pretty useless in detecting my carrier's data here in Brazil, for what I removed its .lnk item from my \Windows\StartUp a long time ago, and I manually provided my carrier's data (GPRS, MMS). Please, consider doing the same.
Just my 2 cents...
