[6.5 ROM] blazingwolf Night v1.4

[Guest jsco]

Unfortunately swapping batteries didn't help. It's odd since I have identical software on our two phones and her's doesn't lock up, but mine does. Only real difference is, I actually 'use' mine whereas, her's is rarely used for anything beyond phone calls.

I'm back on stock firmware for the day to see what happens.

I got a new battery and still have my problem too...to be exact, here's what happens with my phone: If I have the phone charging and I turn off the screen (tapping the button on top), I can "wake it" by hitting any key at any time...even if it sits overnight just as you would expect. However,if I turn off the screen when it's unplugged, it is dead within a half hour (meaning that I have to use the stylus to reboot...even the power button won't wake it). I leave the screen on, it works just fine, even if I leave it idle for hours. I've also had some of the quirky problems described by others but they are very minor. I've just been leaving the screen on all the time as a remedy to my problem but it drains the battery very quickly. Don't know if this describes the problem others have been having, just thought I'd throw it out there.

This happens with nothing extra installed and no other changes?

I have been seeing this too. I wasn't sure if I changed something but, if I allow it to shut itself off, it actually does just that but is unresponsive to the power button. I have to poke it with the stylus to wake it up, a soft reset in other words. Not a problem but I suppose I would miss calls and the alarm is probably not functioning in that state. I am wondering if under the power settings I don;t allow it to shut down but still allow it to power off the screen if that would help?

Bu the way BW, great ROM. I need to shcek out the lates change report for your newest one.

HELP!!!! I can't take reflashing anymore!!! So im using the latest rom...i noticed the SPB Keyboard options does not come up at all. Any suggestions?

[Guest ¬_¬]

Ok, another noobish question.

I'm curious about your second release. I currently have the first one installed..What process do i have to go through to install the second one?

[Guest mcmilliron]

Blaze, thanks again for pointing me to xda for tastanium. It's working great! I think I've almost got my phone setup the way I want it but I need help figuring out how to alphabetize the program icons in the start menu. I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...6134&page=4 but I don't want to try it without a second opinion.  There has to ba an easy way to alphabetize the start menu, doesn't there? Any idea why MS changed that in 6.5?

Thanks Again!

Hey BW,

I think there is a serious bug overlooked. Unless this is just isolated to me?

When in the dialer screen, I flick up to see the calls made and they jarble up over each other. Anyone else see this?

Also, I have been getting distortions in NEO on the music player. The icon enlarges to the point it gets clipped on the right of it.

Lastly, I am giving you feedback here. But honestly, YOU ROCK MAN!

You really do produce excellent roms!

Compliments to the chef!

One other quicky... How to change the state or zone of the RADAR on titanium weather?

I too have had this same issue, even after soft resetting. Then it just stopped on it's own. I just with I can figure this issue out with the SPB keyboard options. And why using any keyboard in landscape is going so slow. I'm ready to duck back to earlier builds of 6.5 i'll miss the finger friendlyness.

I'm trying to figure this issue out. It does not happen to me at all, even with my added programs. If you can get something that produces this consistantly I would appreciate knowing the steps you made to make it lock up like this.

On the beta? It looks like a bug. :D I'll see if I can fix it.

You use UMDL to flash to that one just like you did to flash the current ROM you are on. You do not need to flash the CF03 ROM first though.

Use ReStart. It's already in the ROM. In the Utilities folder.

Beta ROM? I need this kind of info please. :D

The contacts blurring is a known issue and has been around for awhile. The fix for it breaks your ability to add contacts. So I went with the lesser of 2 evils. This stems from using a 6.1 dialer with 6.5.

Can you get me a screen shot of the music player problem?

Tap and hold on the radar screen and select edit URLs on the popup. You can also choose menu and then radar setup from the TitaniumWeather Panel.

Now you see why it is a beta. Still a lot of issues to wrok out. The newest build doesn't fix a lot of these issues either. :D

Before I received the new battery, I did a hard reset and reflashed without installing any programs and it went into a coma within 20 minutes. I have not tried this with the new battery but will if you think it might resolve the issue :D

Hi,

I was wondering if the wakeup alarm was somewhere in this ROM? I didn't see it on the removed list... I tried setting an Alarm on the normal clock page and clicked sound even in silent mode. But it doesn't seem to work with my phone in etiquette mode. Am I missing a simple setting? Thanks

My phone has been acting a little buggie and I thought it was MS3v1.2 but it is still buggie with MS3v1.4. The issue I am having is that when I grab my phone in the morning after a full charge, it is occassionally locked up. It also gets stuck on the iLock screen with 12:00pm on it and then eventually finishes rebooting and shows the correct time and the MS3 start page. I have to take the battery out usually to get it to reboot. I am not sure what is messing with the phone. Does the Lock program work properly?

I have also seen a bit of conversation about Batti eating up battery charge and I have been having that issue as well. Is the general consensus that Batti does or does not? I can see that is fluctuates on CPU usage but at low levels unless its plugged in.

Any help is appreciated.

My problem is similar in that I too have had the 12:00 PM freeze (but just for 20 seconds or so) but it was only when I did a reset. My phone is completely black (like it's off) but the power button won't bring it back so I soft reset with stylus. Try keeping the screen on (don't turn off the screen either manually or through a program) and you will probably notice that it doesn't go into a coma. I also noticed battery power diminishing quickly and this process makes it go even quicker but at least you'll have a working phone. Oh, btw, I went from R&R right into 1.4-never flashed to 1.2

[Guest rndchef]

I also noticed the stock Lock on the phone no longer gives notices for missed calls or emails on MS3 v1.4. It was there on MS3 v1.2 Was this removed? There is nowhere on the Lock settings that would affect this. Is this affected by Notifications settings?

[Guest gordontull]

Anybody seen the Omnia optical mouse over some period of time cease to work with BW_Original_Titanium.cab ( 502.65K ) on this ROM? The mouse continues to work with other apps however.

I switched to the MS3 version, and it is a lot more pretty and use friendly. I like it a lot.

I keep having speed issues, though? If I cut it off, then back on, it runs very fast and smoothly. After about ten-fifteen minute of use, it slows down significantly, though. Task manager doesn't ever show any tasks running. I'm not sure what's wrong?

EDIT:

Two glitches, just incase there is some possibility that you didn't know about them.

-"Add word" does not work.

-The facebook contact thing, where you add pics from fb to your contact list, the first time I used that it crashed my phone. Afterwards I was able to use it, but every few contacts it won't let me retrieve their pics, it says "Network error"..it's not even a timeout or anything, it's immediate.

dang 60 pages.. well hopefully this isnt all repost.

but first off i gotta say ive used a few cooked roms and yours have the best interfaces and seem to have a ton of effort put into them. Thanks, and keep up the awesome work. its appreciated pretty much everywhere.

in opera when i save, sometimes the drop down menus lock up and never go away. sometimes they are fine

installation of google search froze the phone at legal agreements. after a reset, i ran it again and as it was installing i was just taken back to the spb shell. it turns out it did install. when installing google maps, phone locked up during download. i let it chug and the screen went black and never came back on, had to pull the battery.

also maybe im just missing it, but is there an easy way to "close" the spb app and just use the today screen, while i absolutely love the spb interface, it keeps "dominating" the phone and jumping back to that screen when i don't want it to.

Has anyone installed and used something like: http://www.imarche.net/omnia/index.php on the 1.4 MS3 ROM? I was just wondering if it worked, I didn't want to mess up my phone. I really just want to try to get some different icons for the default SPB ones. The actual interface for SPB is great, but they need a better icon designer, or atleast a plugin for some options.

I have been using it since BW's CC20 WM6.5 roms. Doesn't cause a problem. It does add another professional panel but thats it. I like it. I am currently using it on the Beta 23028 build.
