I know that I haven't tested extensively, but I didn't have a problem at home with my router until I upgraded to the new firmware. I'm wondering if that's the problem. My computer connects fine...otherwise I wouldn't be able to post to this thread, but my phone doesn't see anything, even if I broadcast the SSID and disable security...

Weird, but i gotcha.

My wifi is just plained fried. I tryed 2.2 Pre 8, 5069k and the latest official rom. My WIFI doesn't work consistantly with any of them. It will work for short periods of time when my phone is cool. The minute it gets warm, nothing. I think I need to use the protection plan. Ack.

not that I doubt it's fried, but another tidbit I'm not sure everyone is aware of.
the bluetooth and wifi antenna are located on the bottom corner, scroll wheel side. http://i1.tinypic.com/6xicyyx.jpg

I find that's where my hand is while holding the phone, also
a drop on this corner could mess with the antenna,
but working while cool and not when hot, does seem to point to a bad chip.

i tried to P.M. this to you NO2CHEM :
would like it if you can PM me an answerso as to not clutter things up more than necessary TIA! :
I am wondering which are the last 2 roms u did with mobile 6.0?
I got my phone in march, and have yet to have 6.1 work well...
I am wondering if you also know which is the last rom you did that has SKYPE working on it?
I KNOW i had one of your awesome (KISS KISS) roms and want to know if you can remember which one SKYPE was last seen alive...
THANK YOU man!.. Always glad to see that someone cares enough to mess around with something to improve it. I used to do it to video games when i was a teenager 0-)
Thank you!

Just thought I would share my experience so far. I decided to give a different Rom flavor a go, and went from a cooked DCD 3.2.3 to this. I loaded using the SD card method and it went very smooth.

Note: Make sure to follow the directions, especially the pulling of the battery and hard reset.

I normally cook my own roms, so loading a pre-built one was a bit exciting as I was not sure what I would get. The rom is very fast, and with all my bloated "Must Have" apps I am floating around 12-17MB free.

The Keylock app takes some getting use to, and even though it says you can use the hardware switch it does not work. I have not spent much time on it so far so it may be a simple configuration change.

All the utilities and applets are great. The little touches are very nice.

My only complaint is that I can no longer multi-select emails to delete them. It is probably just a setting somewhere but I have not had time to hunt it down.

Great job

This is on 2.2 Pre 8

my WiFi stopped working on No2 stuff a long time ago

#1 annoyance for windows mobile IMO.

I don't like my apps mysteriously disappearing.. especially music players when I'm trying to listen to the damn song. If there is infact some setting that allows wm to try and be smart at closing apps it NEEDS to be DISABLED.

People always seem to shy away from this problem saying it doesn't happen or maybe they're just used to it... Honestly, memory management and overall speed is really starting to urk me about these devices and I'm not sure if it's specific to the 6800 or if other wm devices experience the same behavior.
