[Kolano]

This is the bug collection thread for the Apache WM6 Kitchen CE OS 5.2.1908 (Build 18508.0.7.0) 071107_2. I'll gather bugs into this first message, so folks don't need to poke all over to find them. Please note that this thread is for bugs occurring in the ROMs produced via the kitchen, the file contents of it's OEM packages, or problems with their configuration or interaction. Bugs related to BuildOS,the tool used to compile/flash the ROM images, should be posted to it's bug thread.

  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409]
    "Ime File"="\\windows\\eT9Ime.dll"

  In order for auto completion/correction to work, you have to use the comp ime, not the et9 ime.
  
  For completion to work, it should read:
  

  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409]
  "Ime File"="compime.dll"
  "Layout Text"="COMP IME"

  I'm assuming this would break the touch keyboard's features, but feel free to test it.

• Vogue Dialer OEM Causes Dialer to Popup on Application Close
  

  I have the HTC Vogue dialer and a fairly basic ROM installed from the kitchen. As I was setting up everything it seems the screen kept returning to the dialer view (sometimes the keypad and other times the in call screen).

• Simple PIN Locks Up Phone?

  Edit:
  
  More detailed Steps to reproduce:
  1. Go to settings and lock
  2. Select Simple PIN as your password type and set a password of at least 5 digits
  3. Soft reset your phone
  4. Wait for the device to fully load (IE the tool bar theme has loaded and the phone has found a signal)
  5. Now try to unlock the phone with your pin.

I could never reproduce that behavior just with a simple inactivity timeout, but I know you said that was random. But it definitely occurred after every soft reset.
  
  I flashed back to every iteration of helmi's wm6 ROM I had and they all suffered that issue. Seems to be some sort of timeout issue... like the device is waiting for "something" once you click unlock, and when it doesn't happen in x amount of time the device gives up and proceeds anyway. That's what it "seems" like anyway--I could be way off base.
  
  I had helmi confirm that it does not occur on the Universal (which is the closest device hardware-wise to the Apache). So it's either a driver issue or something in the registry that's causing it. Hopeully we'll get to the bottom of it soon.

• Missing Button Mappings

  Extract all folders to user_oem in your kitchen, start buildOS and you should now have Office Word, Office Excel, and Office Powerpoint seperately in the "Document Viewers" section. To fully test these OEM's, uncheck the original "Office Mobile" and choose one or all three of the new items.
  Example: Choosing "Office Word" will only install word, word templates, and all it requires to run. (1.6mb vs the entire 5.7mb)
  
  Please do test this, all of you who would like to see it in future kitchens.

=== Requests ===

• Update SPB Pocket Plus OEM (to 4.01)
• Update WKtask OEM
• Remove excess file and correct misspelling?
• Indicate Trial OEMs
• Update Advanced Configuration Tools
• Updated webview.dll

.net compact framework--version 2 is sufficient. That is checked by default so you must have unchecked it somewhere along the line.

iggy you can either build your ROM again and this time click the "ExtROM Unlock" checkbox at the bottom of the "Carrier Customize" section or use a registry editor to modify the following entries:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\ TRUEFFS_DOC1]
"MountHidden"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\AutoLoad\ TRUEFFS_DOC1]
"Bootphase"=dword:00000002

Bloody hell, I can't believe I missed that.

Thanks, you guys are amazing, the registry hack worked fine.
