Dutty AT&T ROM 6 comes out "corrupt".. anyone else??

Hey Dutty.. anyone..
I've just downloaded (twice) the AT&T TouchFlo ROM 6 from your directed site and while either extracting the two files out to another folder or by just clicking the .exe file, I get a file is corrupt error for the nbh file. I'm using winRAR and winzip...
I searched the forum and one guy seems to have this exact problem.. I've left him a msg as well for help.
This ABSOLUTELY SUCKKKKS.. man I'd planned to finally install the ROM and play with my phone all night... wtf.. Why me?? Why me????

I found a solution, I had the same problem.
the problem was with my ISP(i'm using comcast basic 6Mbps). they cashed the whole website, and the files that had been cashed were corrupted. i found this because i got a higher download speed than usual, so it was obvious that i didnt get the original file. i tried every browser and downloads managers but they didn't work. but i download XB browser( aka torpark) and i was able to download the file, because it connects with different proxy's from different servers around the world,( this program is for people who want to surf anonymously in the web) so i downloaded the files and they worked, but the speed was really crappy.
search for xB browser or torpark on the Google it's free.

Wow... I could never have figured this out!!

Thanks for the direction... but seriously, why isn't this getting a sticky?!! I'm sure there must be a lot of us out there with the same problem.. considering Comcast covers customers all the way to middle earth.
But thanks once again... I'll check out the browser on google now. the funny thing is that my dl was pretty crappy and about 1/5th the usual speed using FF2.0 and Vista. Oh well.. hope this works
If not.. I hope someone puts the file up on Rapidshare or something.

It worked!!!

lungothrin... I download the browser but it was having trouble even opening google.com so I just thought to tether my Tilt since I have the unlimited plan and thus ensuring that it won't be going via comcast.. and volla!! I could dl it via FF itself and the speed was around 50kbps.
So.. that s another way to do it.

Don't feel bad. Just keep downloading until you get a good one.
There are many different country members in this forum. It is difficult to get a free hosting site that works for everyone and in every country.
I paid both RapidShare and Megaload for premium service. Here in China, I am lucky if I can get the download rate more than 12.5K. Quite often it is only a few K. Without premium service, all I got is a "All lines allocated to your country are used up now, call back a few hours later." message. Long download time prone to get corrupted files.
I am still downloading Dutty's Hybid #7 this moment. It has been two days,all files I downloaded were either corrupted or hung in the middle.

2+ days to d/l a 60 meg file.. I feel your pain man.. wow, I can't even recollect the last time for me similar to that... and you're right, the worst part is when the darn thing d/ls its gonna be prone to errors in the files.. I was able to d/l it via my phone's connection which was a steady 50kbps while tethering... didn't mean to rub-it-in.. merely stating a fact
Good luck with Dutty 7

yeah i had the same corrupt file error...using hybrid RTM 6 now, haha

Firewall for Windows Mobile?

hi, id like to ask if there is a software that tracks what programs connects to the internet. i don't know what programs are connecting right now but my bill just went way above its limit due to GPRS and 3G use.. i found that the program i downloaded, palringo, was what caused it, plus my email which was set to recieve every 2 hours. these new phones are all about mobile internet usage nowadays..

Oops, answered the question with a link to a firewall program... Let me see if I can find one that tracks programs individually.
http://airscanner.com/products/firewall/
That's what I got, not sure if it only gives IP's of data transfer or if it gives the application name all the time. You can see it lists ActiveSync. See if that works.

That's exactly the the reason why I have a contract @ vodafone with unrestrained access 4 inet...

thanks. didnt expect a reply to come in quick. heh.. will definitely try this.
too bad theres no unrestrained internet access plans with my provider

trendmicro
Trend Micro also offers firewall for Windows Mobile. I have already downloaded it, but did not test it yet.

Bittorrent clients

Trying to find a usable (preferably free) torrent client for my Nexus One. I've tried AndroidTorrent, but for the life of me I can't figure it out. I searched the Market and only saw ABTC. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Not looking for one that acts as a remote to my desktop's client, but one that allows me to do BT via the phone.
Thanks.

Are you on T-Mobile? If so you will probably have a hard time getting it going since T-Mobile blocks Bit Torrent both upload and download. Otherwise don't know what to tell you lol. Also may I ask why you might need to be constantly draining your battery to download some bit torrent files on your phone? Surely being able to remotely queue and download to your desktop client would be the better option.

Incorrect. I use WMtorrent on my TP2 and its works like a charm both upload and download are fully connectable according to my tracker. Also I've seen my usage go over 5gb's before with no issue. I do have an employee plan but I don't see that having any effect.

Why Torrents
If you are just looking to download music, try iMusic Tao. You can download individual songs straight to your phone. I also purchased aBTC and am not impressed. iMusic Tao is much better.

why would you want a torrent for your phone? makes no sence. just download the torrent files from your computer to your SD card. if the files are video, just convert them. as far as mp3 files go there are plenty of apps in the market that allow mp3 downloads. for example i use "I MUSIC" for my mp3 download needs.

Sky remote record for hd2

I have just stumbled across this The .cab file linked from the Digital Spy forum is attached. It is an app to access Sky Remote Record from a WM device.
I have been waiting for something like this for a looooooooong time.
I have checked it out and it works and is easy to use. The only problem I have at the moment is that it does not appear to close properly... had to use task manager to close it.

does it have a monthly fee?

Hi there all, first time post so be kind. Anyway, I tried to install this CAB but I get an error saying 'installation failed'. If I go to p.wecomm.com/sky directly from my phone I can download the relevant file (SkyMobile-WM6_PPCP-1.2.0.0) but all it does is open up an appearance settings page for 'Today'. Strange.
Ive had no problems downloading and installing Co0kie's Home Tab Editor, BsB Tweaks, Microsoft .NET etc. so I don't think it's me (but I could be wrong).
Has anyone had this problem and resolved it, or can think of something else I can try?

I downloaded from the site and installed without a problem. The only problem i have is that it does not close. If i use task manager to close it ,it does not work and i have to reinstall it to get it to work. The only way i can get it to work consistantly it to reset the device after i have set the recording.
It seems pretty unstable. I will keep an eye on any updates.

That's strange. I've now managed to install it ok thanks to a reply on another thread i'd started. I agree that it doesn't close but it definately gets closed via task manager and I don't have to reinstall it. Try the CAB file provided as a reply to my other post in the new thread (search for my posts - I only have three - and you'll see the thread). That CAB seemed to work fine.

Hi, I've used this for a while too and also have to open my task manager to ensure it is closed properly.
Also, I find it very difficult to type on the small keyboard when logging in....but maybe that's just my fat fingers

Hi all,
Try installing the attached cab.
It has the same name as the cab in post 1 but it's the one i use and i have no problems with it at all. Everything works as it should and it closes properly.
Hope it helps.

Great App... works very well... Now only if SKY would officially launch it

Me too. I select ok on the "data total exit screen" and it drops me back to the main menu of the app. Have to press home then task manager to close it. If I then re-load the app I cannot load details of a TV programme. Thus making the app unuseable :0(

it lets you view sky channels and record sky programs remotely. you have to set up your sky account first (username/password) but its free and it works!

Doesn't work for all of us. See the "exit" problems above.

Working... mostly...
hi,
I've been using this for quite some time. It works, in the sense that I can start it, browse sky listings, get prog info and set recordings (most important features!). It is not working, or a bit poor, in the following areas... won't close (though mine does close in task manager and no restart issues), keyboard in waaaayyy too small and really hard to use, scrolling though channels is slow and tedious and there are occasional crashes.
However, it lets me record when I'm away, so I'm grateful... needs some work though to be a complete package.

im going to try this, but need to know how i can make it work for Foxtel (Australian rebranded Sky+)

HTC touch 2
I to am having problems with this app. When first installed and first time use it works ok but does fail to close. When you use again it fails to connect when you press record and times out. But only on certain pages the news channels always seems to work but all channels and the movies only work sometimes. I have tried a power off and back on but seems to make no difference. I do notice that the pass word box is emty after you have saved it so could this be a problem?

Since I flashed my ROM to Energy's I have not been able to sign into this app with my Sky ID - I get a 'failed to connect to authentication service' error. Has anyone else encountered this? Could it be due to my flashed ROM?

[Q] Say what? Wi-fi internet sharing for Windows Mobile 6.5?

Hi everyone. I've been hearing mention of some sort of Internet Sharing application or addon to the comm manager, that would allow me to turn my phone into some sort of hub. I'd like to be able to use my phone's connection with my iPod Touch, (or perhaps, other devices), so my searching is what has lead me here.
However, I don't really know what the "defacto" modification is for getting this capability. I've seen several threads already. Also, they seem to lack in documentation. They come in cab files - would that mean I can just download and install from my phone right away?
So if anyone can recommend me a wifi sharing app, (preferably for the HTC Ozone), I would be very grateful.

Auugghh. The website logged me out, so I lost my entire post
Anyhow, I'll try and re-write what I had last time:
So I'd like to use 0.9.1, since it seems to be the last free version. I downloaded it and installed it ok, but I have no idea how to use it past that. Could you possibly link me to a guide, or detail it in here?

Well, I gave in at the airport and just downloaded the trial.
Very nice. I'm so glad that I can use a browser that was a least half thought out (safari mobile) rather than that Intermet explorer. What a waste of my unlimited data plan that would have been.
Although, I'd like to be able to use that free version of WMWifi if I could. So does anyone happen to have a guide for it?
