All:
Does anyone have any further ideas on how we can keep all WiFi and BT Connections after a soft reset? I have looked into the Registry and nada... BT needs to re-pair after each soft reset (SR) and WiFi connections are no longer present after a SR.
Any Ideas? Otherwise everything seems great on this ROM...
And the ISP connection too.... There's a fix for this bug?
Same issues here.

As you can see from the above poster that it says "Junior" before "Member" - pity they let anyone with an email account join this forum...
Also I think you were trying to write Noob and NOT Nood, get a freaking clue before posting replies which reflect your IQ.

With regard to the problem. I have nghianga rom and found that if you don't reset with the stylus for it seams to work fine. I have been running for a week now with no problems and my phone gets reset every night by spb backup.
Indeed I think it has settled down properly as I did do a couple of stylus resets yesterday and it is still fine

same problem here... but if i try to set my email account again i get an alert that an accout with the same name already exists. but i can't see it. so where will all the settings that were lost when i (soft)reset my device be stored?
big thx

email settings
Before mine became stable I had that problem too. I couldnt find a solution anywhere :-( Fortunately I had a backup.
It is critical to have regular backups with these cutting edge ROM's
I highly recommend SPB Backup - mine backs up automatically at 5 every morning. There are problems restoring backups between different versions (eg. wm5 aku 2.2 and WM6) so I make sure I have syncronised with my PC too. And I use SMSbackup for my texts. I think there is also a Contactsbackup that works between versions.
Good luck - I have no problems at all with WM6 now

TRy this....for me solved the saving of Bt and Wifi settings........
After the configure of Bt and Wifi ...instead of softreset....i shut down the phone....when i turn on it again...the settings are working!!!!....and now also if i softreset ...the setting dont disappear...!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am using Aserg Rom
Muchas gracias for all your suggestions especially to videobelu. Your tip solved all my problems without any additional software.
It's just that simple:
* configure Bluetooth, Wifi, Gprs
* create your E-Mail accounts
* shut down your device
* and restart
now you can softreset without loosing any of your settings.
Big Thx!

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.
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.

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?
Hi.
After some changes It seems the new version of bandswitch is compatible with HTC Polaris. Bandswitch is used to swith from 2g and 3g quickly with only one click, enabling to save bettery keeping in 2g and using 3g when needed.
Dani
Thank you, provides very good this application
thank you guy , it seem it work very good on my cruise !
Nice
I couldnt test it on this device because I dont own one but It seems the system to change the band is the same than kaiser, instead of Hermes....So I ve modified it to behave like if It detects the device is kaiser...
Dani
i got a problem, when people try to reach me they automatically get my voice mail (in normal phone settings) i also have problems calling myself (stops a few times and then after trying again suddenly connects). same with messages long delays in receiving and sending...
after setting the band to GSM they can reach me but i have the idea that i cant use 3g????
is there a problem with the phones function t switch between 2g and 3g and do i need this app (bandswitch) for it or is there something with my phone or my opperator-settings?
Hi.
It is operator issues. I have same problem here in Spain with Vodafone. But this problem doesnt happen with Movistar. Being in 2g, if gprs is connected AND there is data flow in that moment then if someone call me it appears as phone turned off. Some friends of mine are telecomunication eng. in vodafone and says Its the sw version of the system, but not related with the pda or its configuration.
Greetings
Dani
ok, thnx
sw version of the system? (do u mean software..)
but is there something my operator can do so it works or must i keep on switching myself in my phone settings?
or do u suggest to use bandswitch?
yes,software.
HTC roms allows to change the band but the process is slows(many clicks). Because of this bandswitch was borned. In fact if you see the first post (in hermes forum) I was searching for a today plugin to switch quickly the band. I didnt find any and I developed this tool. Other operator rom doesnt provide a way to switch the band. Why? I suppose 3G generates more data traffic and more meney for telcos so they fix their devices to 2G. SO you have to use other tools (like bandswitch or commmgrpro) to change the band.
Greetings
Dani
Hello Daniel,
Should V2.5 work with a Cruise that uses the Murata radio?
I dont know that ROM. Today will be out V2.6 beta. In this version I ve changed the way to manage connections because some devices (htc touch, samsung i780) doesnt implement correctly some RAS functions so I hope management connections works for these devices too..
Testers for bandswitch v2.6
Its a beta.
Connection management didnt work correctly on this device because a known problem in some RAS API functions didnt implemented.
http://www.commmgrpro.com/CommMgrPro/files/BandSwitch.V2.6.cab
Changes:
1) Connections management(Stablish, close) has been replaced with IpHelper API so It should work with HTC Touch, Samsung i780 and others. Can you test it?. It would be nice if It was tested with currently working devices (tynt, hermes, ....) and not working devices (touch).
2) Keyboard appears automatically on license and text controls.
3) Unsintall process backed up registry settings to other registry place. It was causing in some devices error uninstalling. It has been solved. When you install old version It can cause error but continues with the installing process.
Greetings.
DAni
pd. Testers will have free license, of course
Testing? Yes!
Hey Dani!
I`ve just downloaded the cab and test it now.
How could I give my feedback?

I turned off the Speaker for 30 Minutes with the switcher. After that the speakerbutton shows "Speaker off".
And after a softreset the UMTS GSM Buttons show automatic, but i switched to GSM permanently.

When bs is shown the auto button is always focused because Its the first one but it doesnt mean the device is in auto mode. Look at the tray icon. g means gprs. a means auto, etc. I will take a look again to the speaker

Touch Cruise rom udK R1:
I can't install it, keeps asking me for a serial number.
Once any version of bandswitch you ve 15 days to use it. The countdown doesnt stop even if you install other version. I will do a separate system for betas that doesnt watch if there was any other version installed some time...
2.6.1 works fine
Hey Daniel!
I just installed your new version and it works fine, the button behavior is fixed and i found no errors whit switching 2G/3G, speaker WiFi or BT.
All fine so far, but the beta expires in three days...

Hi there,
I am having some very annoying problems with my phone and getting it to connect to the internet. I have the Orange branded SPV E650 and have flashed it with the new Windows Mobile 6.5 beta rom. Strangely (as with other roms aswell so Im not saying its a problem with them rom!) I cannot access the internet on it. I have tried going to the Orange website and getting the GPRS connection settings sent and they saved fine and I can see them but IE still wont connect with the following error: "Failed to connect to the internet. Data coverage may be unavailable". So after those settings didn't work I deleted them and tried using the Connection Setup application which retrieved settings based on my Orange network provider and being based in UK. That also inputs settings on to my phone but also IE still fails to connect. By doing it that way it sets up a proxy in connections but unsure if that helps, as whether i keep it and try to connect or delete it I still can't connect! I have signal so thats not the problem and also Orange say everythings ok at their end. Also in comms manager with the Data connections I cannot turn it on, a "G" icon on the signal icon in task bar flashes on and off, toggles between them like its trying to connect but does nothing eventually.
Im really stuck and tried different roms but experience the same!
Any ideas guys? Would love to receive some of the great knowledge found here!
Many thanks!

Hi guys,
I had the same problem with my SPV E650 ( aka HTC VOX ) . The problem is related to the WIFI adapter who keeps its IP number although not in use. You have to release manually the IP , or , better , go to : Start , Settings, Connections , select GPRS but do not click on it ! , ratter go menu ( bottom right ) , Advanced ( the only option ) , and there on Internet connection go to Orange Internet instead of Automatic, and voila ! ( or at least for me it worked fine ! )
Liciniu
P.S. please keep me posted. Thanks ,
Hi all,
I have the exact same problem. The phone, SPV E650 (HTC S710), orange branded, reflashed to WM6.5, tried more versions, but i can't get it to connect to the internet. No one found any solutions?
I have the same problem but even with the wifi, is
Explorer from MSN as I fix that?
Mine is a S710
ok, I found the solution in my case. the operator had to start the internet service for my number. weirdly, I had it activated some time ago...
hi guys, i no longe have a vox, now got a Touch Pro 2 (and loving it!) but the problem was that despite my request for internet with my service provider, they hadn't actually activated it, so all my attempts to solve a 'problem with my phone' were pointless lol. good luck guys!

I use The Cell Series V6 (eagerly awaiting V7 soon to be released!). It is perfect for me, it is fast and responsive, no problems with any feature like bluetooth/wifi not working and it has far better graphics than any other rom I have tried. If you haven't tried it i would suggest you do!
How about u?
Win Mob 6.5
I suggest an upgrade to winmo 6.5. It’s a great OS and works brilliantly on the Touch 2 Pro. The Honeycomb menu makes browsing so convenient. The windows Market Place is packed with Many applications that will interest you!
