I'm about to give up on Treo 750 (Downgrade wm6.1 to 6.0) [RESOLVED]

I fixed my problem doing a Hard Reset and uninstalling the Palm Translator software pt-BR. So, I'm still using 6.1 and I'm very happy with it.
Guys,
I'm in desperate mode on. It has been two days I updated my treo 750 to wm. 6.1 ( Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD). Everything went just fine. The system is nice and all. A little bit faster than the old 6.0.
But then the nightmare started: My "Notes" and "Task Manager" are there but don't work! I put Network frame 3.5... but nothing happened.
These are the two app I most use! I know there is a lot of other apps but I wanna use these ones that came with the wm.
I have two choices: downgrade to wm 6.0 or fix this issues. I've been without sleep for two days 'cause every procedure I try to downgrade fails! I tried this one ( Treo750_2_27_ROW_EN_DesktopUpdater) but it says "you already have a newer version installed". And yes, I tried changing the payloads archive.
I tried Cheetah Unlocker, SD card method but nothing happens, just the three color screen saying serial or usb. It also says:
CHEE100
IPL-0.20
CHEE100
SPL-1.40.OliNex
The info about my phone is:
Windows Mobile 6 Professional (the start screen says 6.1 Professional)
CE OS 5.2.19199 (Build 19199.1.0.0)
Software Version: TREO750-2.27-RWE
Firmware version: 1.12.0c.00
CC-CAP: GEN-ENG-010
I also tried T750URT but it does nothing but getting my firmware to 1.12.0c.00.
I took the 6.0 rom from here: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335402
Are them really 6.0? I took the "Generic Rest-of-world - English"
Please guys help me. I've been searching over here and other forums and I just can't make it work. I chose this forum to subscribe and post 'cause it looks like the more expert. What am I doing wrong? I got this phone last weekend and I'm pretty new to this HTC world. My first smartphone! I live in Brazil and everything, even my 3G connection was working on the 6.0. This device came from USA 1 year ago and the last owner (my friend) just put the portuguese-br translator and used it.
I think I'm not forgetting any information. Thanks in advance. Going to try to sleep.

I'm using the same rom and the two app. work fine.
After search in the internet I found this link for rom 6.0
http://depositfiles.com/ru/files/1336491
but first check what is wrong with the 6.1 rom ...
One more thing - there are softwares that you can download and do the same job even better...( replace "Notes" and "Task Manager")...
one more link for rom 6
http://rapidshare.com/files/173145556/Treo750_2.23_ROW_WM6.rar

My 6.1 ROM is working superbly, +some registry edits to speed it up even more! It's more likely, that something went wrong in the flashing process. Just try again the same 6.1...

Thanks!
Thank you all for your words. You won't believe what happened.

This morning I was in classroom and I had a crazy idea. I pressed the red button (to end calls) and reset at the same time and erased all the data. Guess what? Everything is working fine! But I sure remember about doing this same reset stuff after upgrading. Anyway, I didn't put the translator to PT-BR yet. I'll try now and if anything goes wrong, I'll just reset it again and leave in English. English wouldn't be a problem to me as you see. I'm thinking about my wife (she's still learning English).
I wanna thank you both 'cause I just gave it a try after reading that you were not having problems with the same phone. Thanks for your time and patience.
@otoinsa
Is this safe? I mean, editing registries to get a faster wm? Can you tell me which mods or just point the link about what you did? Thanks again.

By editing the registry you can customize a lot of stuff (for me replacing left soft key's permanent "e-mail" to SMS was a must. Now under "SMS" I have a submenu containing "e-mail" AND "messaging"), also disable a lot of useless windows mobile features, or enable (power management - longer lasting battery).
To some extent it's completely harmless, just try to avoid experimenting with it too much! There are a lot of instructions on the web, most common keywords used for search are "windows mobile registry hacks" or "pocket pc registry edits". It's best to add the version number (WM 6.1 for example) when searching. Also don't confuse your Treo 750 with Windows Mobile Smartphones - they don't have a touchscreen and those run a different type of Windows Mobile. It's almost the same, however there are some differences...
Most of the older WM regedits will work on 6.1. Also Treo has some Palm-specific registers. Just for starters, here's a link:
http://pocketnow.com/wiki/Windows_Mobile_6.1_Registry_Edits#Power
Wish you luck and hope you'll help to keep the 750 alive in this forum! Post your success afterwards.

I found it!
I found the problem. After doing all the customization and testing all the apps, I installed the translator Pt-BR from Palm's site. Guess what? All the apps I mentioned before stopped working. I did the uninstall process and guess what again? Everything was in English again and most important: working!
So this is the trick: don't use Palm Translator (at least pt-BR) if you are using a non-official wm6.1 rom.
The guy who sold me this Treo has the Treo Pro 850 now. Such a nice device, but 750 was my first pocket pc and I won't forget about that.
Gotta change the post title to resolved lol. But don't lock it yet. Maybe someone else may has a experience to share with us.

Help out HTC s710 My new phone

Hello to everyone,
I an happy owner of HTC s710. So far my phone worked good, and than i installed some application to change my resolution to 96 dpi and killed my phone. Hard restart worked for me. Thanks to this forum i manage to find the way to hard restart because i was not been able to access menu.
I was reading this forum for Vox phones was trying to find some use full applications for my s710 and some themes but with so bad results.
When i bought my phone it was equipped with nice theme and good applications for system monitoring and weather reports, file manager etc...
If there is a person who will like to share some links to pages whit applications and themes or make a list of (or share) applications that works on my phone please help out.
I have :
Windows Mobile 6 Standard
CE OS 5.2.1235 (Build 17740.0.2.0)
"Edit" i was in "Compilation of all the programs htc vox s710 The subject of renewed" nothing special there, skype, flashlight... but no themes and no weather application.

[Q] internet sharing over wifi for older HTC Mango Devices [HD7,Mozart, etc.]

I've seen that wifi internet tethering/sharing is supported on mango devices and its actually available on the new HTC phones like TItan. Also, I've seen on the deployment section of this forum that people have figured out how to enable this on older wp7 phones from Samsung. How can this feature be enabled on older HTC phones running Mango, such as HD7 or mozart? I've been waiting for this feature forever.. If its available on Titan, which is from HTC, running the same Mango OS that I have on my HD7, why cant it be enabled on HD7?

i heard that we have to wait for hardware update.

HTC announced that it will release a firmware update in the future that enable tethering.

but when? mango's here, new mango phones are here... when will the firmware/hardware update be herE? and how would we know? would it pop like like the software update notification on the phone?

I just received a HTC Update a day after I updated to Mango 7720 from 7712 (Developer unlocked HD7) but there is no internet sharing option. I wonder what that htc update was for?

i tried the xap from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238519
i got internet sharing option under Settings on my phone. But upon turning it on, i get an error message saying there's something wrong with the settings.
I cant post on that thread coz i'm a newbie here. Can anyone help resolve this?

Instead of creating a new thread, you could have simply followed the already existing thread of enabled IS.
They are working on it, for every phone, so just sit tight and wait for them to do so. Subscribe to the thread if you have to, but its most definitely being worked on.

thanks for the update.. i am following those threads... just that i'm a new member, so i'm not allowed to reply to those threads... hence i'm posting here

Hello, I cannot find the topic you're talking about. I have HTC 7 Pro, 7.10.7720.68, open market. When will I receive update enabling internet sharing or is there any unofficial way to enable it? I am forced to use my old WM6.1 device to do internet sharing from 3G to bluetooth to PC, but I want to use my Windows Phone!
Thanks.

rumour HD7 could support share feature.

Internet Sharing is working on my Trophy...
Cheers!

does anyone have the actual link directly to the mozart 51007 CAB?

Can this update be installed over-the-air, or I must connect the phone to a PC?

[Q] (n00b) HTC Mozart T8698, steps to add display language!

Hi,
I recently bought a Windows Phone 7 Mozart for my mom!
To my surprise it didn't come with PT display language.
And quite simple, I just want to add the display language PT-PT to it...
But first a little bit of history,
I'm a complete noob at the Windows Phone World (iPhone user with jailbreak and Cydia for the last 3 years), meaning I know nothing about how the world of unlock and running 3rd party tools in Windows Phone works.
As a noob, my first attempt was just to update the phone to latest and greatest version, assuming PT display would be present...
I was wrong.. I Google about it, and found that if the Manufacturer didn't activate it, then it wouldn't show up, even when using 7.5.
I immediately restored it to the factory settings, going back to 7.0.7008, since as soon I started reading about the way unlocks and interop's work in Windows Phone World, you are advised to start as a OS old as possible...
So at present it is at:
OS version: 7.0.7008.0
Firm rev: 2250.09.12902.401
Hard rev: 0004
Bootloader: 5.12.2250.1
SOC: 2.2.5.0
I've read this thread:
[CAB] Official WP7 Updates List: 7.10.8107 + ALL LANGUAGES complete + OEM updates
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306415
But quite honestly I have no idea how to even get to this stage, the unlocks and interops are completely new to me, and I have no ideao where to start...
Would someone be kind enough to tell me what steps should I take, since I'm only looking to add the PT language display!
Thank you

... check camera settings - it's ok ? Or only three icons to flashlight settings ?

Hum, well are you assuming that I already did what that thread I posted says?
Because I didn't...
