Guest blazingwolf Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 I'm using 1.3 now, I was using 1.2 and had the same problem. I was hoping the "bug fixes" in your change comments would fix it. Other than reflashing from 1.2 to 1.3 I haven't tried again. Just for the record, I flashed to CC20 when it came out, then to CF03, then to your 1.2 (PDA only), then to your 1.3 (PDA only). Yes I flashed to CF03 first, but I didn't leave it there long before I flashed yours. Maybe I should flash back to CF03, see if I have the problem over a couple days and then flash to your ROM again if I don't have it on a stock CF03? That's the best idea I can come up with at this point. It's weird cause it works great and then will just randomly lock up. Then I'm even more confused. I have never had lockups on a freshly hard reset device. Have you tried formatting your My Storage? I don't think it will help but it might. Only other thing I can think of, which you have mentioned is to go back to the CF03 base ROM and then back to mine again.
Guest charles2995 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) hey so i just wanted to make sure before i flash that if its just giving me problems, will i still be able to flash back to cf03? also, whats the deal with installing cabs on this phone? i see that in the description on the first page, theres a whole confusing method to doing it now. if i were to install a program to 'my storage' on your rom, is there more to it than just clicking it to install it? on somewhat of a side note, i was thinking to myself the other day that it would be really kickass if i could sync my omnia with itunes...

Guest blazingwolf Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Blaze, I really like the ringtone you had in the cc20 v10 ROM. However I'm partial to the M2D interface so after I did the samsung upgrade I flashed to an M2D version. Is it possible for you to post your ringtones? I hope that's not out of line to ask. Thanks! Remember the name of it? I'll be happy to post it but I don't remember. :)
Guest blazingwolf Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 One other issue is that I will be working in a program and then all of the sudden it till revert back to SPB screen and close the other program.....I think That is a MS3 bug. There has been talk about it in the MS3 forums but I haven't seen a fix for it.
Guest bigperm Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Same issue it seems. You will notice though that the Call History and Phonebook buttons work in mine. I believe it is related to the fact that I made PhoneBook the main contacts. I changed to the WMdialer and it pulled up the correct contact screen for the WMdialer. For some reason it is not doing this for the PhoneBook. I can go back to the standard WM contacts but I was hoping to keep the black finger friendly look. me too, I like the black finger friendly look, but like the functionality of the WM contact screen. Hey, I am just happy you do this, it is your call! Thanks for taking the time here. By the way, how do you get "auto-complete" for email addresses and txts in your roms? Is it a reg setting? I know other people's roms don't have this, and was wondering if it was a simple change. Thanks!
Guest reaver76 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 Hey BW, Did you see this on WMExperts.com..... "Gotta love Microsoft for this one. The mother ship shows its chutzpah and has released a developers guide for porting iPhone apps over to Windows mobile 6.5, using an app called Amplitude for the case study." Do you think this will work on your beta 6.5 rom or would we have to wait for the official 6.5 release? BTW... Can't wait til I get home so I can flash to v1.3 of MS3. Thanks!!

Have no idea if it will work. I don't see a download for it so we won't know until there is one.

Guest dmcnado Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 ok im just having a little trouble getting an icon for clauncher. is there a certain format it has to be? i put the 50 x 50 icon in my storage card but i cant see it when i go to find it I place all my icons in the My Pictures folder on My Storage (NOT the storage card) and clauncher can find them. They are png format.
Guest bga7x Posted August 4, 2009 Report Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) Hey BW - FWIW, I don't know if this will help, I was over on ppcgeeks, and Bgill has the same problem with his latest build...here is a sample from his Thread...someone else had this problem (this is from his ROM, not yours) but same issue, it seems...i think he was using 23016 XIP and SYS/Beta build 21928 .... ***************************THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOUR ROM*********************** HUGE Problem! I have about 600 contacts and I manage them by pulling up the dialer, typing part of their name, and then clicking on their name (I use the samsung dialer). With previous versions this worked. When I clicked on their name it would pull up a screen that would say "Call", "Send Text Message", "Send Email" etc. This no longer works on 1.4. Now it doesn't do anything when I click on their name! I have no idea what the problem is but if I can't find a solution I'm going to have to go back to 1.3 (although I LOVE everything else about 1.4). PS. I don't know if it is related but the "Call History" & "Phonebook" buttons in the Samsung dialer don't work. I don't know if it is related or not. **********************************NOT ABOUT YOUR ROM ABOVE********************* This was fixed in my Rom two versions ago and still works great!! I dont update that much over at PPC geeks cause BW and Adryn have it pretty much lock down!!! but yeah that issue has been fixed in my rom for a while!! im on build 23017 which is my latest!

I don't think it will help but it might. Only other thing I can think of, which you have mentioned is to go back to the CF03 base ROM and then back to mine again. So I may have discovered the problem. I forgot that iGO8 installs after I hard reset (yes I also reset mystorage cause it was getting messy). I uninstalled iGO8 yesterday and it hasn't died since. I did a search for iGO8 and windows mobile 6.5 and it appears some people have various problems with various solutions. I may twiddle with that later but I think for now I'll just leave it uninstalled to make sure that's the problem. It's just weird that just having it installed causes problems. Apparently something runs in the background that I didn't know about.
Guest herionhero Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 I am now using your V.1.2, can I upgrade to V.1.3 without re-flashing down to CF03 first? Love your ROM very much.

Guest tmar23 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Well, a flash will erase everything you have done but you can use a registry editor and export the settings you want to keep and use XDA_UC to reinstall them upon your next start up. That way after the soft reset your phone will be the way you like it. :) BW (or anyone) - can someone point me in the right direction for learning how to adjust the registry editor and export the settings as mentioned above? I would like to do some more research on this, but haven't found anything when i tried to search? I install so many things and make several changes that I would love to automate this process a bit more! Also - on an unrelated topic, I flashed to the latest MS3 version last night. Everything seems to be working great. I have a very minor issue though - I am using a different picture as my background for the lock screen by going into the settings in Today. When I lock the phone, the picture is quite dim and not as bright as it used to be? Not a big deal, but the picture used to be very bright for a minute or so until the picture dimmed after the lock. Now, the picture dims immediately after I lock the device? Any ideas on how I can change this?

I use Resco Explorer and reg editor if you go to the reg setting you want to export just push it and keep it pushed a pop up menu will come up giving you the chance to export it to you storage or any other place

Guest pantsman Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Hmm, interesting. Let me know if this is confirmed as your issue. Negatory. I thought it did but about 6:09pm tonight I tried to open Opera and as soon as the taskbar showed Opera she locked up tight. I think I might go back and make sure the stock CF03 ROM works to eliminate the possibility of my device being fubared and then go from there. Thanks anyway for your help.
Guest eTronic Gaming Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 I got it installed on a Samsung Omnia i910 for Verizon after the CFO3 upgrade. However, I'm having a few issues: 1) No ringtone plays when I get a call (There is one selected... the default one in fact) 2) I get a standard windows notification for an incoming call. No "Slide 2 Answer". Not sure if an incoming call is supposed to look that plain and boring, or if something messed up: I get something that looks like the bottom of this screen: http://ilovevb.net/Web/blogs/vbmobile/Wind..._image004_4.jpg

Guest mnstrchmst Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 I think I pretty much bricked my phone...called verizon and they're sending me another 'cause the new one they just sent me was to fix a worn out touch screen. It was working with a previous version of your mod before CF03 came out. Anyhow...more stupid questions: when I get my replacement, should I first burn it with the cc20 rom, then the cf03, then finally your slicker than s*** work of art? Thanks for your patience, Mnstrchm. Turns out that the phone they shipped me was defective...the guts couldn't hold an update or a flash and work. The one I just received today took the CF03 and your 1.2 version. I'm now updating to the 1.3 version...Marvelous work!!! (...and you do this for fun????) Thank you! Mnstrchmst
Guest eTronic Gaming Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 you phone must be locked to have the slide to answer kick in What about the ringtone issue?
Guest LucidLight Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Got the MS3 Rom installed, and it is sweet. However I did wonder if you have the %1 battery increment drivers installed, and if so how do I get MS3 to show the right percentage of power left? James
Guest Lisbian08 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Posted August 5, 2009 Got the MS3 Rom installed, and it is sweet. However I did wonder if you have the %1 battery increment drivers installed, and if so how do I get MS3 to show the right percentage of power left? James BW does not use the 5% or 1% battery drivers anymore. They can be found here. Read the thread carefully because KabKab posted updated drivers later in the forum. Most people have stopped using them because of the battery drain. If the updated drivers are copied into the windows folder on your phone, SPB MS3 battery indicator will show the correct increments as well as the battery indicator on your taskbar (assuming you have a taskbar installed that will take 1% or 5% increments) I hope that answers your question.
