DEAR ALL:
Last week, I flash my kaiser to a new ROM with ver 19199(wm6.1), it work very well until today evening. there is a strange problem with my kaiser.
The problem is : THE SMS Inbox date is alway wrong display. for example:
TODAY is 7 MAR 2008 AND the TIME is 4:00 AM. NOW ,I send a SMS to my kaiser. Soon my kaiser received the SMS, it display" 8 MAR 2008,7:00 PM. It is absolutely wrong, there is only few second interval.
At first, I think this is a ROM bug, so I reflash an other ROM (6.1 19174)and reflash the same radio. but the problem still exist.
Now, I feel this is a HARDWARE problem , I have no idea, help me, please, thinks very much!
in addition, the SMS in the SEND BOX and draft BOX is with nomal display , only INBOX SMS have this problem.

I get the same problem as well. But it's only with certain text messages and voicemail messages

I am waiting the solution, it confuse me all night

Eather it is your operator that has the wrong timezone set (i had this happen to me) or maby you should check out your own timezone on the phone. Hope this helps

first thinks for the above answer.
the timezone on my phone is right.
I just reflash my rom to 6.0 18538, the SMS with normal display . So this is a bug with 6.1 rom(19174 & 19199), not a hardware problem.
I hope the boss to solve it.

I think this is register table problem , can modify the register talble to solving it.
NOW, I export the register table of the ROM 19199 & 18538, and hope finding the key through comparing them;
I don't know this way is correct, or exist a more efficiency way.

I realise I had a naive idea , that is impossible to solve this problem through my above idea.
Tell me the what can I do ! help.

Nobody hnows? ??

Not only is there differences in the time .... do you realized that you stated there are 2 different MONTHS ???
one is "MAR" .... the other one is "MAY" !!! is this a typo or is it fact ??
The timezones might seem to be a possible guess/solution.
but if there's a typo regarding the months as well ... that could be the reason why you get no responses !!!

I made a mistake , now I correct it , It is 3th month, not 5th month.
I assure the timezone setting is correction, that should be a bug of the WM6.1 ROM

Hi,
I too am having this issue, where the time is incorrect on the incoming sms but when I reply it shouws the correct time stamp on my sent message. I am using Duty 6.1 rom no cube released March 4. It's is an inconsistant error as it does not happen all the time, only once or twice so far.

Anyone getting this error??? I am testing it out by sending txt messages to myself and notice that the time I receive them is stated as 4 hours prior (ex: if i receive it at 1pm, it shows 5pm)
Anyone hav any ideas on how to fix it?

Yup.
I had the same problem as well. Currently back on WM 6.0 (the ship version for Rogers).
Exactly as you said it, my text messages were approx. 4 hours prior. (I would receive the SMS at 5 p.m. but it shows 1 p.m. - You stated the other way around)
And before I noticed it with actual text messages (it was working previously then all of a sudden changed) Rogers offers a service (WhoCalled) and at that time they were 5 hours behind

hmmm, ****. I don't want to reflash AGAIN.... but maybe no choice. I'll keep trying to figure it out for now.
btw, how are you liking the Rogers ROM? hows the battery life and reception?

meehh
it's ok. I came back to this because I found that there was a lot of instability issues with any of the 6.1 roms out there
i'm just giving this a shot for a few days to see how it is
the radio it comes with isn't so great, especially not for GPS
I seem to have a lot of issues with all of my radio's I try.. bad luck I tell you

Ahh i c. I'm using Dutty's 6.1 ROM (released Marck 4) and radio 1.58.21.23 and have good battery life, great gps and reception. I noticed ur in T.O., im in Ottawa.... so if your gonna try a 6.1 ROM again I'd suggest you give the radio mentioned above a shot..

Ok, well after flashing a few roms and testing it IS obviously a WB 6.1 issue (to say the least).
Hopefully we can narrow it down a bit more....
I'm using a ATT Tilt, on the Rogers network in Canada. And using Dutty's new rom (as stated in my signature).
What model are you guys using??
If it is a Tilt issue with 6.1 ROMs thyen this should be moved to the Tilt specific issues thread.
Please post back.
Also, Can someone (whoever is able to) change the name of this thread to reflect that the problem is SMS Time Stamp being incorrect, not DATE? thanks
Thanks

I was working with two of the 6.1's
I tried the original shipped 3.02 and dutty's March 8 - I liked the original shipped one, Dutty's unfortunately did not run well for some reason. I found that it hagged quite a bit and a lot
the Polaris radio wasn't good for me.. a lot of the 6.1 Radio's seemed fine on my end, but the person on the other end could hear a lot of static and crackling. The new Niki radio was great for GPS and everything, but it would always cut out during a sentence when talking to someone and i couldn't hear what they said. Sad, i know.
As for the time bug, Dutty's I noticed it with every SMS, whereas the original Shipped 3.02 was just only for the "Who Called" SMS messages.
Oh, BTW, I hope you're not painted up like a Sens fan in that picture LOL

When you call Rogers, try to say that you're a student in like IT or whatever and ask what makes Name Display work. If we can find that out when get get it out of the Rogers ROM and we'll be able use it in other ROMS (hopefully)

Slightly odd behavior since WM6 upgrade

Hi all
Upgraded to WM6 on my O2 XDA IQ. No problems with install all went great. SInce then though a few people have sent texts that I have not got. It seems to work some of the time. It isn't a particular network or person as I get some from one person then another day I don't get them.
Plus it keeps making the dinging noise (the one it makes on boot up) all by itself. It plays randomly at different intervals, 10 times in a minute some times and then it can go for hours without playing. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!!
It generates this sound at boot up proces when there is a connection problem of wi-fi module. I solved it by changing in the wlan-ip manager th device
Weird. I mean not getting messages shouldn't be a problem in the phone, right? If you get one, you should be getting them all...

That is what i thought, so I rang O2 and they said must be a phone problem which to be honest i thought that was total BS!
Got rid of the dinging noise thanks to makler1981. The wifi was turning itself on when the phone was switched on. Still not sure why it turns itself on but i now know how to stop the bloody noise!
Cheers!
You need to do this modifications in you system registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TIACXWLN1\Parms]
find there
"HTCDefaultOff"=dword:00000000
change it to
"HTCDefaultOff"=dword:00000001

It was already set to 1. Strange eh? Thanks for the suggestion.... got any more?
I had problems with delayed SMS after a WM6 upgrade as well. More so the ones I sent weren't arriving until hours later, or sometimes not at all.
I do wonder if this maybe was a radio problem, as there are different versions of the radio ROM. See if yours is the most recent (ending in .14 I think).

New to Tilt, Installed Dutty's newest hybrid rom questions

Hey guys.. new to the tilt and installed dutty's most recent hybrid rom with cube on the 1.64 radio.. noticed that when i go to the recent calls and want to get out by pressing end button.. it goes to a blank screen with the 4 icons at the bottom and cant get out unless i hit the screen and hit okay at the top.. is this a bug?
I have that problem too.... starting a new thread probabally isn't a great idea, answer is probabally burried in the original thread for the rom... but just FYI instead of pressing the red hang up button to get rid of the screen, press the "ok" button directly under it. that will close it without the white screen.
yea i tried digging through everything and couldn't find anything.. so i'll just post my questions/bugs here since i've already created a thread..
I'm coming from symbian so Windows Mobile is a completely whole new platform for me..
Hows the battery life on your phones? I've got through 50% in nearly 10 hours.. which is horrible.. but i've been playing with it all day..
Another thing i found weird was everytime i try to hit the X button on the top right to close the app.. somehow the "Comm Manager" keeps popping up outta no where.. is there some kinda hot button that makes it come up?
Also, the timestamps on my SMS is completely off.. its nearly 5 hours behind.. anyone else experiencing this?
please seemon search....all your questions have been answered somewhere in the forum..theres no way u've been digging through "everything" and havent found anything..
heres something i found in "everything"

10 hours of "playing all day" and you've still got 50%?

I had posted the resolution to the time stamp issue long ago! The thread is still there... I have been using these forums for quite some time and never had to ask a question as all the answers I needed were already posted.
The only exception I found was with the SMS time stamp problem. That was the only topic/issue without an answer. I tried a trick I had for my WM5 iPaq 6955 and to my surprise it worked on WM6 & 6.1. I now use UC to auto add in the reg key needed If you don't know what UC is then check the WIKI.

A cellphone can get a few days of life due to the lack of features they have. This is a Pocket PC phone. It has a large display which you might have the brightness turned all the way max while using it. So in short:
- Larger screen
- Brightness too high
- Wifi, Bluetooth, or GPS left on...
All can cause quick drain on battery! Even the type of mobile processor can cause quick drain. Compared to older Qualcomm chips, the 7200 is not too bad on battery life with the right OS tweaks.

Problems with official wm6.1 release

Hi all,
I have just upgraded to the official WM6.1 release. First everything was working fine, but after a little while phone began to dial numbers like crazy and the device became unresponsive.
Any thoughts?
Has anyone else experienced the same?
Many thanks,
Chris
If I understand your symptons, I think I had the very same problem some time ago.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=384791
I only fixed it by getting a replacement. Later, it turned out that my photo button was 'broken'.
Check all your buttons, maybe the problem is situated there. Maybe not...

I think there were other reports of this in one of the two main threads on the official release. Have you installed any other keyboards/SIPs?
I wouldn't blame this on hardware yet, especially if you don't have the problem with other ROMS.
Gents, I also flased the new official rom but have had a number of occassions where the device has stopped responding. Soft reset is the only thing that resolves. Sometimes it freezes, as if it is 'hanging', then suddenly works again. Not sure why. Tried a hard reset but still have same problems. Thinking bout flashing back to the WM 6 rom. Any thoughts?

Hard reset before customization. aka At the screen where is says "tap the screen to begin to setup your device."
If that still doesn't work then after you are done with the customization flash the 1.65.16.25 radio and see if that works.
skype and tcpmp dont work. lots of freezes and lots of error reports wanting to be sent to microsoft. the most adventurous firmware uograde that i have ever experienced and it ate up the whole of my sunday and it is yet to eat up more of my time.
very irresponsible of htc to release something as unripe as this. i doubtv anything got tested before the release.

An application not working is not HTC's fault. This is an OS upgrade and vendors need to upgrade their apps. I don't believe I have found an official/leaked 6.1 ROM that DOES run Skype....only cooked versions.

Hi,
I installed some other keyboard some time ago. But that was before flashing to this new upgrade. I suppose that they will be gone when doing so.
The thing is that it is working fine for some time, about 10 minutes after i flashed to this new upgrade and it begins to dial numbers.
If I do a soft reset the problem begins when I press any key.
Many thanks for any help!
where do you get offical 6.1?
where do you get the offical wm 6.1?
i go to the HTC website and log into the E-club click phone software updates and nothing happens....

I had exact same issues, the device dialed all kinds of numbers, alphabets, etc and would not respond for about 5-7 seconds at random times.
I hear someone got that issue fixed by changing SPL and/or chaning Page Pool size to 16MB.
I hope someone can confirm that and make that a sticky before I revert back to this ROM, I am using 3.02 now.

Didn't change the SPL but changed to 16MB pagepool. The intermittent sluggishness is cured about 90%. Wish there was way to fix this 100%

i am aware of that. but somehow very popular 3rd party software just should be taken into consideration, not to annoy most of the updaters.
apart from the random unresponsivenesses, crashes and freezes, what i find pretty unacceptable, is that you cannot restore a backup from the old system although i was given backup software from htc itself. and we are talking about an upgrade from 6.0 to 6.1. had they called it 7, i would have understood the incompatibility.
i am new to the windows mobile world, so i guess i need to keep shut and swallow what is being offered as i dont have any other choice yet.
but the future is looking bright and we will look back at these occasions and have a laugh when sometime soon everything will be functioning seamlessly with the linux based android and palm operating systems. i heard that nokia too wants to join the fun. lets see.
for now, i will need to revert back to 6.0

Intermittent problem with sound during phonecalls. Please help! :(

The symptoms: SOMETIMES during incoming phonecalls Raphael rings (plays sound) but when I pick up the call, suddenly the phone sort of "mutes itself". I can't hear the person talking, nor can they hear me, even if I hang up and try later. The only thing that helps is a soft reset.
It's difficult to count the occurence, but I'd say like once a day at least.
I have already tried Hard reset, the phone is acting funny with only Advanced Config 3.1 and PHM RegEdit installed and a few tweaks applied (just Boost TFL3D performance tweaks and SMS conversation disabled)
I'm running stock 1.90.401.1 WWE FW, I have flashed a new radio version (1.02.25.31 Cingular) though.
Any advice/suggestion is appreciated.
Unless the new radio is giving you 3G, I'd go back to the stock ROM/radio combination and see if that works. I'm currently using the Cingular ROM/radio as well and I've never run into these problems, but that may be due to different hardware.
Thank you very much for a quick reply.
I'll try flashing the stock radio and will report back...
So, I flashed the original radio and it seemed for a while that the problem was gone.
Sadly, I must report that the problem is persistant as I had to restart my phone right now. When the "sound mute" thing happens I don't hear anything while answering phone calls (even though the phone rings normally!) and also when I try calling any number from my contacts including the operator hotline.
I really don't want to return the phone because I like it very much but having a phone which has problems with phone calls is kind of silly.
I'm at my wit's end.
Will anyone help me please?
I have a small update - today I was so desperate, that I tried flashing a custom ROM (namely DCS-TouchPro-v1.0 Hybrid) and the phone went bonkers right at the first incoming call. However, something IS different - now the phone is not silent but starts "buzzing" - making a long uninterruptible sound that lasts until reset.
Do you think I could have a HW problem?
I HAVE EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM!!!
I already posted a message in the "Issues" post of the Raphael Forum, but apparently no one had the same issue so far.
I did many hard resets (and installing gradually less things), it still bugs.
Currently the only tweak installed is the scorpion one to have 4 rows of icons in a menu.
My Raphael is behaving like this since 1 week. The bug occurs once or twice a day as well.
Anybody with some good IT experience has got an idea of what could be wrong with it?
Do you think it is more software related or hardware related?
Today it also crashed badly (grey doted screen and noway to make it work again by turning off. Had to soft reset).
PLEASE DO HELP US, because I'm using the phone for professional reasons and I'll really have to send it back if it keeps on bugging this badely!!!
I just sent a message to HTC Support.
Let's see what they say.
I'll post their response so those who have the same problem will know what to do.
Oh boy, I must say I'm glad not to be the only one with this problem, even though I never wish bad things to anyone.
While googling the problem, I found a few Diamond users with exactly the same symptoms, however most of them solved this by exchanging the device for a new one, so this won't help us much...
Me too, I was wondering if it was because I did something wrong with the phone...
But if I'm not the only it means that there is a problem with the phone itself.
Anyway I'll wait for the official answer from HTC...
I'll post their answer as soon as I receive it.
I'm actually quite curious what their answer will be.
But I wouldn't hold my breath for any miracle, so I'm preparing to send my phone to the service center to have them look at it...
Well.. that makes 3 of us then
at first i thought my symptoms are different, but Flippy confirmed they're identical.

I have to correct myself - I wrote that when the thing happens, the phone still rings, which is not true. It rings just the first time before the problem occurs, but then it's dead silent.
So it seems our symptoms really are exactly the same.
Told ya AntiProxy!
So we are indeed only 3. It is still ok, it means that there is only a very small proportion of of Touch Pro that have this problem.
Now let's only wait HTC's answer...
spoke to HTC support today.
not that i expected them to figure it out or have a solution at hand, but i figured what the heck.. give it a shot.
their solution?
hard reset.. the guy would swear by his daughter that a hard reset will solve it.
i just thanked him and hung up.. *sigh*
don't you just hate it when techsupport's solution to everything is a reboot or reformat.. when you know that's not the solution anyway!
Well, I tried already doing the "Clear Storage" through the settings -> system panel, but it still has got the same problem.
I'll give them a call aswell to see if by any chance I can get on the phone 1 person who will be able to provide us a better technical advice
Hard reset won't help, I've already done it like dozen times and it makes no difference...
I tried flashing the phone to the stock 1.90.405.1 ROM and so far (a day and half) I have NOT encountered the problem. It is too early to start hoping, but I wanted to let you know - if you don't mind flashing your phone, give it a try.
Zillator, can you keep us posted for like 1 week?
If in 1 week the phone doesn't present again that problem I'll flash it as well (I didn't want to flash it because I wasn't sure if it could void the warranty). If during 1 week you don't have the problem again it'll mean that out initial ROM was defective...
Thank you Zillator and please let us know. (by the way when I'll call them tomorrow I'll ask them if flashing the ROM to a newer stock version voids the warranty).

AntiProxy, it might be a bug in the ROM we have in our machines. That's why maybe flash it could be the solution. Nevertheless I'll ask about the warranty tomorrow when I call them and let's see how it goes to Zillator.
If his phone doesn't bug for 1 week, there might be a big probability that the problem came indeed from our ROMs.
Guys, don't worry, I WILL keep you updated. I know how much the problem bothers me, so if there's anything I can do to help you, I will definitely do it.
In the end, that's why we are here - to help each other...
AntiProxy: is your stock ROM 1.90.405.1 WWE? Because mine was different (1.90.401.1 WWE) and I had the problem. Maybe Flippy_TK is right and the problem only exists in the 401 ROM.
I'll continue testing and we'll see...

Radio ROM's Tested for T-Mobile/Cingular US. Experience posted, take a look

Decided to make new thread about this instead of waiting for answers in other threads. This experience is based on TMobile Boston area but should apply to TMobile as well as Cingular/ATT in all the corners of US
I have TMobile USA MDA/Wizard G4. Was running on official TMobile WM5 ROM with 2.25.11 radio with no problems for over a year.
Recently flashed to the latest TNT Professional ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414518
Great ROM but got a problem that from what i see on forum some of users have encountered: missed calls
Problem: Very easy to reproduce, leave your phone on but with no activity at all(do not touch screen/any buttons/receive calls) for a periond of 30-40 mins. After that try calling it from another phone, although green button blinks(indicating that the phone is on) it will not ring/vibrate/light up. On the other end it will ring as normal and go to voicemail. If you wake you phone up(pressing top button) it will start receiving calls but will not notify you of missed ones while it was "sleeping".
Experience so far: (these finding were based on latest TNT Professional ROM and might not apply to other ROM's)
Radio Rom:
2.19.11 - No missed calls, below average signal and audio quality
2.25.11(official TMobile) - missed calls, average signal/audio quality
2.37.11 -missed calls, average audio quality, above average signal
2.40.11 - missed calls, average sound quality, great signal
2.47.11 - missed calls, above average signal/audio quality
2.61.11 - missed calls, average sound quality, good signal
2.69.11 - missed calls, great signal/audio quality
2.71.11 - missed calls, best signal/audio quality out of all tested
The fix from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317331 (post #6 - thanks to mmeyer) i did not find it to help in missed calls situations at all.
Question#1: Is there a hybernation mode that is not described in any settings but activates after certain period of time that might be causing the "disconnect" in WM6?
Question#2: There are Tmobile Wing radios available(version 03.07.90, 02.97.90 etc) and since Wing is quite similar to MDA would it be possible to flash those to MDA?
LOOKING FOR RADIO DOWNLOADS, IF ANYONE HAS ANY BESIDES THE ONES MENTIONED ABOVE PLEASE PROVIDE THE LINK!!! IT WILL BE PROMPTLY REVIEWED AND FINDINGS POSTED
Any help/input will be appreciated!!!
try all 2.40.11, 2.47.11, 2.61.11 to find the best 4 ur rom!
ty for your help, but that wasnt really a question i am looking for an answer to, did anyone try to use the WING radios on MDA? or will it just brick my phone?
2.37 has not failed me yet. What rom are you using?
I never got missed calls after leaving my phone on my desk at work for hours at a time. What roms have you tried this with?
you can try to fix this by having your email download more often maybe.. I think that it is either your device or rom or carrier network.
In fact I just tried it now after leaving my phone sitting for about 4hrs. it responded to the call just fine.
In fact, 2.19 gave me the worst problems. I missed calls, texts would not pick up signal after I would get out of the subway and so on. I think it is made for a canadian network (Rogers I think) as itsright(TNT) stated.
Used 2.37 for about a year now on both the east coast and west (canyons in San diego have a lot of deadspots that 2.25 would not catch signal often.
I recomend you get rid of both the rom and the radio.
Ty SVI, 2.37 is the one i havent tried it yet, will do today, to answer your questions:
What roms have you tried this with?

TNT PRofessional latest from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414518
i have tried 2.25, 2.69 and 2.71 so far, all were missing calls, 2.19 is the one that hasnt missed calls in 2 days, but the signal quality and audio are not the best by far. Currently trying 2.47.11. As for device or network, they both worked 100% when was on official wm5. Will try 2.37 and report here
Does anyone have 2.37.11 Radio for download? looked through the ones i have and the closest are 2.40 and 2.25, appreciated!

2.40.11 tested and failed, testing 2.37.11... first post upadted
I experienced the same problem with the 2.71 radio rom. I saw the screen and buttons light up like I was about to recieve a call/text, but then it just displayed one missed call. I reflashed to 2.19 and the problem disappeared.
are you sure the problem is with the radio and not the rom? if you havent tried, how will you know?
2.37.11 missed calls after phone was asleep for 2 hours(passed 2-se on 30min sleep tests) anyone have any other Radios(61, 65, 83) i can test?

After more testing 2.37 does miss calls, disregard my previous comment

I am sure ROM contributes to the problem as well, just want to find the best working radio for TNT's ROM, and then do the same for other ROM's i might like to use(like yours). But need to gather quite a few more Radios before i can proceed, perhaps you can help?

Thank you for your help will test now
Your issue is ROM Related!
There has been extensive testing about this very issue. The fix by mrfrzzz and the warnings of missed calls is all over this forum and warned about in earlier wm 6.0 builds for the Wizard. Seemed like every Rom that came out had the missed call issue, later Devlopment, and the new Radio 2.71.11 came out, This issue dissapeared. I bet you do not get any missed calls with your carriers OEM rom on your phone! If you do, then I would be sending it back.
I sent my Wizard back twice because of Hardware issues.
The Fix by mrfrzzz was intended for wm.6.0 roms so I doubt that it would work with wm 6.1 roms, maybe I am wrong about that but, I still have my Wizard and let my Daughter use it. She never has missed calls and I have radio 2.71.11 radio on it, I have flashed most of the wm 6.1 roms that have came out and again, I have no missed calls or SMS.
I have Tried every Radio and for me, The very best Radio in my opinion is 2.71.11 and 2.47.11. I have never tried 2.37.11 but if SVI says it is good, it probably is.

As stated in first post i never had missed calls issue with original WM5 Tmobile ROM during over a year of everyday use.

2.71, 2.47 and 2.37 all miss calls with and without the fix as stated in first post. The only one that does not miss calls is still 2.19 radio which leads me to believe that there might be a later radio ROM that would not miss calls as well.
Currently testing 2.61.11 radio and looking for more Radio roms that i have not tested yet(not in the list in the first post)
2.61.11 bites the dust, so still only 2.19.11 is the only one that works, flashing back to it to test more(if that one fails then its 100% ROM fault)
