Smart1 v2 Bug Collection

OMG, thats really bad news I red today! Smart1 will not release a v3! Your WM6 v2 is close to perfect, just some small bugs left to perfection. Whatever may happen, I wanna thank you for this first: GOOD WORK!!!
I may not have posted alot until now, since I prefer reading first, digging into it, then posting. I´m still pretty new to PPC world (compared to those who live in here..), and I don´t want to spam and pollute.
Now someone asked for list of bugs in smart1 WM6 v2 to fix them / cook a new ROM based on it, so I step in because these bugs are something I know about - sadly.
Maybe you smart1 could give all the files needed to build it to him, to make shure things dont get messed up on rebuilding? Don´t know how this is handled in here.
BUGLIST:
Bugs I have myself & they are confirmed:
- Backlight switches OFF after Softreset (really bad at night..)
- PIN to access device gets corrupted on Softresets (-> cant use device with PIN enabled edit: Installing radio ROM 2.61.29 has been reported to fix this bug, I will NOT test this.)
- Email Password gets lost after SoftReset (reenter on boot)
- IR not working (did not check manual reg fix avail.)
- WLAN in Comm Manager does not always switch ON/OFF propper, does not switch ON after several tries
- Delay of 0.5-1 sec on most Softkeys (1/2, Green, Red) + 1 & 2 cant be reasigned without problems (cab)
- second incoming calls screen never appear + no missed calls record in call history. (never tried, but as workaround I suggest disablin the feature at your cellular provider. edit: Installing radio ROM 2.61.29 has been reported to fix this bug, I will test this.)
- GRPS Connections do not intialize propper after Softreset. After opening Connection Settings once (like editing them, then OK) all works fine until next Softreset.
- Links inside emails produce an error
Bugs I dont have myself but confirmed
- Earphone speaker too loud eventhough already set to the lowest volume. Mic volume too soft as claimed by other party during conversation. (fine here, maybe depending on G3/4 or model)
- Incoming MMS does not work.Outgoing does work. (Cant confirm, hate $$$ MMS)
- the HW buttons (green and red) have a lag sometimes, or dont respond too well while using the dialer.
Bugs I have myself but not shure if confirmed:
- Could not get Internet Telephonie (SIP) working, may be wrong settings
- Sometimes dialing a contact does not work (from some views/windows). Will check the circumstances
Bugs some people have but not confirmed so far:
- MobileCalculator.exe not starting (works fine here)
- Pocket Outlook (Messages) does not start after a while (had this once, guess its some inteference with other soft)
- If you want to mark a task as complete or make a new task, you receive an error "not enough memory to complete the task, etc". If you click on complete (left button below screen), it marks the task as complete, but when you leave the application the task is not gone. When you enter tasks again, the task is still there.This happens too in the pdamobiz v1.00 rom. (I can not confirm this at all.)
- the HW buttons (green and red) have a lag sometimes, or dont respond too well while using the dialer. (not completly wrong, in general sofkeys lag)
- System sounds (click, msgbox etc) go off sometimes, a soft reset gets them back (had once, someone else confim please)
from 18.04.07:
- Display is not kept opp when pressing the power-button slightly once. Some program forces it to turn on back-light, which makes the touch-screen active again. Active touch-screen in a pocket is a very bad combination (I dont get this. Get opp?? Why not just lock device or use Mortsaver)
- The phone turns itself on frequently throughout the day when you have an Exchange email account. This is confirmed after a hard reset, and doesn't happen until the Exchange account is entered. (Guess Mortsaver could be used as workaround as long as not fixed.)
- BUG: The text or font cannot be changed in Outlook Mobile. Attempting to change the size of the text to bigger or smaller does nothing. (Uhm, does WM 6 support HTML mails at all? I don´t need it, if i need formated text i attach it)
- Ringing disappear from time to time (not sms). Screen still go on from time to time when display off(even on a clean hardreset).
(BTW; Since i have SmartV2, the extended rom does not install automatically.
I Confirm these bugs:
----------------------------------------------------------------
To get a clean & bugfree WM6 on prophet (maybe) I suggest following system:
- Everybody reads the whole tread before he / she starts posting
- Everybody thinks twice before posting if the post matches the topic
(Smart1 v2 Bug Collection - not: How to flash ROM or Please add finnish language.)
- Everybody posts bugs that are not already known .
- Everybody confirms bugs if they where not confirmed once
- Everybody falsifies bugs if they do not appear on their device
- Everybody posts tested solutions to confirmed bugs
- Nobody posts requests or problems with flashing or any other BS
- Nobody quotes complete posts just to add a single line
I will read this tread and update this post to collect all known bugs into this single post. I hope some mods keep an eye on this tread and keep it clean from "I have a problem and I am to lazy to read - PLEEEASE HELP ASAP" posts. Excuse me if this sounds a bit rude, but I just red trough 90 pages of the smart1 tread....
Even if we can`t cook ourselfs we can still judge the taste...
Please keep this post clean!!!

A
bug I find: afetr using some time, the messeage can't be used!
thanks

Problems happened to my prophet
1. Earphone speaker too loud eventhough already set to the lowest volume. Mic volume too soft as claimed by other party during conversation.
2. second incoming calls screen never appear + no missed calls record in call history.

Bug with tasks?
I have only one complaint and this is about tasks.
If I want to mark a task as complete or make a new task, I receive an error "not enough memory to complete the task, etc". If you click on complete (left button below screen), it marks the task as complete, but when you leave the application the task is not gone. When you enter tasks again, the task is still there.This happens too in the pdamobiz v1.00 rom.

I don't know if this could help others.. I had the same problems as you other guys in this thread with the phone part. (No missed calls list, PIN to access device gets corrupted on Softresets).
If i then flashed firts to NVID of WM5 rom, then to Smart1's WM6 V2 and after that i flashed to the radio rom of version 2.61.29.. Then those problems dissapeared for me.. I have a full call history list, and the phone does ask me for PIN everytime i soft reset! I haven't had these problems at all after i did this.
Bugs I have myself but not shure if confirmed:
- GRPS Connections do not intialize propper after Softreset. After opening Connection Settings once (like editing them, then OK) all works fine until next Softreset.

I can confirm that! I have the same problem!

Grt Rom, just a few glitches.
1) the HW buttons (green and red) have a lag sometimes, or dont respond too well while using the dialer.
2) System sounds (click, msgbox etc) go off sometimes, a soft reset gets them back
Can live with the above 2 problems, other than that i think its a fabulous rom, quite slick and quick. Hope someone can pick up where Smart1 left off.

Turns itself on with an Exchange email account
OK. Scratch the title of this post.
The problem exists when a PIN is used with the 'Lock' applet in Settings -> Personal -> Lock. When you have a PIN set to be required at startup, the phone will at times turn on by itself. Also, if you let the phone sit by itself for a few minutes, you will be able to turn it on with the 'end call' button! I have repeated this after several hard resets with no apps installed.
I originally thought an Exchange account created this problem because my hosted Exchange provider requires a PIN to be setup for the phone to communicate with the Exchange server. But, I know the Exchange account has nothing to do with the problem.

BUGS
BUGS
RINGING
Sometimes the phone does not ring as normal (sms do notify!), it displays only on screen without making any sound, not even vibration.
Happened once after weeks of usage:
SYNCRONIZING
Syncing with laptop not successfull. After all my calendar, contacts, to-do and task were deleted on unit. After that ActiveSync does not want to syncronize with phone anymore. Not even after deleting and creating a new partnership. The unit keep changing its ID; WM_Administrator1, 4, 6 etc.
Hardreset and reinstall of AS4.5 so far works.
GENERAL
*Display is not kept off when pressing the power-button slightly once. Some program forces it to turn on back-light, which makes the touch-screen active again. Active touch-screen in a pocket is a very bad combination. I dont use any exchange-account.
*Fast battery draining (tried every radio-rom, now running 2.07.20)

More bugs
And ofcourse;
Incoming MMS does not work. (outgoing does work!)

For me, this is the biggest drawback. Which apps do have installed, and have you tested them to determine which app might be involved in turning the device on by itself?
I have also noticed that I can even get the device to turn on with the end call button at times...
Do you have an Exchange email account?

EDIT18th Apr-07 08:48 (GMT+1):
BUGS
Still no incoming MMS, Ringing disappear from time to time (not sms). Screen still go on from time to time when display off(even on a clean hardreset).
Have not been able to reproduce contacts/calendar deletion via sync yet (it appeared after some weeks last time, fresh install now only 3 days)
(BTW; Since i have SmartV2, the extended rom does not install automatically. I therefore have installed the cab-files in folder "\extended_rom\" manually via total commander. If that has something to do with it)
I Confirm these bugs:
Earphone speaker too loud eventhough already set to the lowest volume.
- the HW buttons (green and red) have a lag sometimes, or dont respond too well while using the dialer.

Wow, amazing how fast this gets confusing. People please try to keep it clean!!!
If you find out something is not caused by the ROM itself (like Bongachalla just did), please edit your previous posts and delete these Bug reports.
As far as I understand Bongachalla had 4 Bugs (no MMS receiving, No Ringing from time to time, Sync deleted all contacts on PPC and Touchscreen activating by programs (check our Mortsaver for this btw.)).
Did all of these bugs disappear after your reinstall or what?
Please try to be exact with your bug reports and check if they appear with a clean installed ROM before you post them. Please search on board if there is a fix for them and post solution together with report if you find some. If you get any error message google it to find out what causes it.
This helps us all and raises the chances that someone will take the time to build a rom with bugs fixed. Thx.

BUG: The text or font cannot be changed in Outlook Mobile. Attempting to change the size of the text to bigger or smaller does nothing.

No more bugs?
Maybe you did read the original Smart1 tread, so you know he revived his S200 and announced release of v3 in the next weeks. So I guess its time to post any unknown bugs and confirm the known ones, so they can be fixed in this (I guess final)release.
Thank you for your help.

Another bug not yeat reported
I've looked every where and didn't found anything related with this bug.
My sms just get erased from the Text Messages folder each time I do a soft reset.
using smart1_wm6_pp8mb_NEW.v2 and the Prophet_G3_G4_RadioRom_v2.61.21, followed the instructions and runned all the cabs in the extended_rom.
Did i do anything wrong or is this really a bug

No bug ... its a config of the SMS store!

I dont want to spamn this post, so can you just redirect me to the instructions on how to change that? so when i do a reboot, the sms dont get lost? sorry for the off topic([email protected])

You can't change it! If you reset with your stylus you will probably loose messages.
Use pxshut or similar or turn off (hold power for three seconds)
The reset hole is for emergencies only. This is discussed in great detail in the Fantastic 1.1 thread and the Smartv2 thread.

After WM6 install...slow connecting/calling and hanging up

After i install wm6 and extras.pack of software i have trouble calling the number
there are delay between first and second typed number
for example 011 5112 33
0... then about 6-7 sec. pause... then 1... then about 2-3 sec. pause then 1 5112 33
i think problem appears after installing some extra program but i now dont know which one...
help
registry values are ok
also there is problem when i press CALL button to recieve incoming call.
there is delay for about 5 sec before i can hear person on the other side of "the phone line"
same when hanging up
call stops after couple of seconds but not right when i click red button...

wrong post

how to get rid of this awfull and slow wm6 ROM.
how can i do downgrade????????

It is not awful, what ROM are you using ?
use Andot's PEE, follow exactly my guide in my signature

im using some Andot ROm from first post of this site *wm6*
slow as hell....
it takes me 10 to 20 seconds to enter some of StartMenu folders as Accessories or Office6
also there are problems with making and finishing the call

im very disapointed and i m regret doing this stuff
if i do nothing i going to smash it
it is almost useless

yes
i did follow this istructions
good instructions
everything finish perfect
i have wm6 but....
those issues...

how to hard reset the device
when i press 2 soft buttons and on/off button white screen appears for 2-3 seconds then 3-color screen
pressing "0" does not help

install HTC Clear Storage, its in the Extras folder

the more programs i ve uninstalled the less delay was...
i now have only tcpmp and some smartexplorer and calling is correct, not perfect, but correct with about 1 sec delay.
is this something with RAM memory problem as old Symbian Nokias had.
The more program you install the less RAM you have
(interesting)

but i dont know what to do with couple of programs.
i bought 512miniSD yesterday, waste of money
i setup cache size and all stuff you mentioned or somebody else in these posts but... still some wierd things happened...
for example. when i try to access Accessories folder i wait for more then 10 seconds...
calling Contacts or Messages from buttons is also slow
it takes me good 5 seconds...
when i try to open sounds in Settings/Sounds to change i cant hear nothing until i press Exit or change to another sound and i then i can hear only 1-2 seconds of Sound but more like 'beep beep'
WM have delay of 2-3 seconds before start, sometimes more, when i press PLAY
another thing,
there are apsolutely no signs Volume buttons are working.
There are graphic of getting up and down
but sound is still on 100%, anyway...

now the wierdest thing happened
I CANT TYPE LETTERS
ONLY NUMBERS
EVERYWHERE
BUAAAA

Install T9 english
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=47308&d=1187243838

uninstall the ROM and try another one (PHIL or VA_alpha ), yesterday i had the crazy idea to install the PEE ROM from andot and to my surprise my phone was slower than never before, the programs opened 10 seconds after the click and even the camera program does not work properly. Actually i don't understand why so many people like that ROM version.

Camera is awfull.
precisely said, It is completely useless.
I just want to install another ROm or downgrade to wm2005 but i dont know how????

hey senior user,
just tell me how
i m just newbie...

xmarkom
I'm sorry, but I hate people who just complain about everything. Just read the threads, there is answer to all of your question.
Other users have tried to help you already and you didn't even say thanks.
Download yourself a freakin' rom from your phone's manifacturer and install it.
I hope you solve your phone problems reverting to wm5.
Take care.

WM6 has become a pain

Hi Friends,
I am facing a peculiar problem with my xv6700. When i press the "power on" button to start the handset, it start without a backlight and can be seen only under a light. However it allows me to make calls but cannot hear anything. When there is an incoming call there is no ring only incoming call alert icon flashes.
However, after battrey is discharged and wen keeping it for charging it switches on and get stuck on the white screen showing Radio as "None".
Now my problem is that I am not able to upgrade or downgrade the ROM it gives either of the error messeges like "Connection Error" or "Rom not made for this device".
Is there a way to completely erase everything including the OS and re-load a fresh set up so as to provide stability to the handset.
My current config is
ROM = WM6
Boot Loader : v1.00
Can someone help me to upgrade or downgrade so that my handset works properly.
regards
Raju

HTC Touch PRO 2 - FULL OF BUGS - Please review these and let me know!!!!!

Hi Everyone -
I have used the HTC touch PRO for about 3 weeks now and I have to say it is FULL of bugs . Can you guys confirm or deny this:
1. If the phone is set to vibrate, it will go back to "RING" after a single call. Meaning if someone calls me once, it will go back to RING. This also happens if the ringer is set to Vibrate and Ring also.
2. When you make a call using the "dial pad", the "dial pad" disappears very quickly and goes to the main screen. Then you have to hit the DIAL button and then KEYPAD to get it back. It is very annoying when you call your bank or an airline where you have to go through a series of promts like entering your ID numbers, pins, etc.
3. The camera seems to come on sometimes by just touching the screen.
4. If you have multiple numbers associated with a contact (home, work, mobile etc), it shows one number when dialed. For example, when I dial my friends HOME number, it dials the home number correctly, but on the display it shows the MOBILE number being dialed.
5. Unable to send a CONTACT's info by SMS directly from the CONTACTS page. It will send a MMS but not a SMS. THis is when someone asks for a phone number of a person and you just want to send it automatically from your phone book.
I am sure there are other bugs also, but the above are the most annoying as hell.
I want to make sure this is with everyone or just my phone!
Thank you

hey,idk how helpful this willbe but it seems like these phones str8 out of the box are having problems...ive read that a hard reset will get rid of some of the unwanted bugs...you may try that

1. Just tested and after call vibrating stayed on.
2. The keypad goes away but not to the home screen. So all I have to do is hit on key, keypad to get back to it.
3. never had that happen.
4. Confirmed. Seems to default to the first number stored maybe??
5. Confirmed. Most likely because it is sending the vcard or something as an attachment???

My experience is the same with the Verizon branded TP2.
#5 It sends it as vCard attachement.
I Just open the contact info to edit then copy and past it into SMS.

Returning TP2 tomorrow
Used the TP2 for 3 weeks;
1. Screen clicks when touched, guess the slider hinge is loose;
2. Set vibrate then ring, keeps going back to ring only everytime the phone is powered off and back on, (standby on); this is the mode I use often, not to annoy people in meetings, and not to miss calls;
3. Cant set screen dim time to more than 10seconds, it dims after 10seconds no matter what the settting is;
4. Internet brower lunch from home gets stuck randomly, have to hit end go back to home, then internet again;
5. GPS performance with Sprint Navigation is much worse than Touch; It takes much longer to lock, and it lose GPS often; Maybe a software thing, Google map seems to work fine.
Non of the bugs are serious, but very annoying! The phone is too big, too heavy, too expensive ($349 from Sprint)! Miss the dial pad; The only good thing is the beautiful screen.
Hopefuly WM6.5 upgrade will fix these, but dont want to get stuck with waiting for the upgrade, I've just re-activated my old touch, and returning TP2 tomorrow.

You can add the issue of not being able to keep static IP's assigned to the network adapter for use while in your workplace or business, and then when not in the workplace haveing the ability to use sprints data services. In otherwords everything has to be dynamic. If you want to use static ip's while in range of wifi, you have to clear it out when you leave the wifi spot in order to use regular evdo.

gps is fast and accurate
fast if you disable touch flo and use mobile shell

Another bug
When viewing NFL mobile, after about two minutes into showing something, the phone reboots itself. Quite annoyin'!

1. I've heard of this happening after soft reset but it doesn't happen on my phone
2.Works perfectly fine on mine, all you do is hit the 'Keypad' button and it should stay up. if you end up at the home screen hit 'phone' and then keypad and you should be good....do you have a dialer skin on it?
3.Never happens for me
4. haven't tried, i don't have any contacts with multiple numbers
5. haven't tried but i usually just copy/paste phone numbers for sms
definitely try hard reset. and if it's got a warranty or anything like that you still have the option to return/exchange it

well speak of the devil my phone started showing some of these symptoms later in the evening and now even worse when i make calls i can hear people talking but they can hear me
a hard reset fixed it but when i restore my backup files it goes back to messing up so maybe it's one of the tweaks i ran?

is there a way to use sprite mobile to only restore contacts/sms? that's all i really need i'll think i'll hold off on the tweaks and just wait for the HSPL unlocker

Hope these problems are all fixed when the HardSPL is released.
As for now, I am holding my breath waiting to see if the gps problem is fixed on a new rom, waiting to buy this phone.

yeah, the real messed up part is verizon is out of stock with the phone. i went to a verizon store but they couldn't even replace it for me. i think the people over there are retarted cuz i've known it was out of stock but the dudes at the store didnt know and the guy they had me talking to on the phone didn't even know they didn't sell them in stores!
'you'll probably get the imaggio isntead it's the upgrade of your phone'...no stupid i need a keyboard

mine keeps switching from Ring and Vibrate to Ring as well

Problems with WM6.1 (for Asus P750)

Hi all,
I've recently posted on the Windows software development section of the forum, but i've been adviced to try here instead. After using the Asus P525 with WM5, i've switched to the P750 and i get many problems and bugs. Some of them may be directly link to the P750, others are certainly linked to the configuration of WM6.1 :
1/ How to get back the "Call history" button instead of "Dial" ? I want to get the full call history, and not mixed with the contacts
2/ How to set by default the numeric pad ? Anytime i press a number on the button, it displays letters instead, like if i had to type a SMS from it
3/ How to restore the long press on the "#1" to launch the voicemail ? Now it launches the smartdial stupid thing
4/ Why can't i select anymore the profil (tone, vibrator, silent) directly with the jog dial button ? Now it select things in the today page
5/ Why does the noise signal for the double call function (receiving a call while there's already one established) disappear when using a bluetooth headset ?
6/ Why doesn't the red led notification disappear after checking a new voicemail ? It keeps warning me whatever (not the case for checking a new SMS by the way)
Also, two others problems : a/ the backlight screen that turns on itself randomly b/ disconnection of the Bluetooth headset. There are two patchs for that on Asus website. I'm testing the results.
One last detail : i have tried a hard reset yet.
ROM firmwares : V6.7.0 (there's no 6.9 for the french version but i'm curious to know what bugs are fixed in that version)
Radio firmware : V4.6.8-P2
Thank you.
