In addition to the usual stuff (BTPAN, BTDUN, Contacts + WinLiveSearch, smart dialer/##) not working, I want to start documenting other things that don't work. I'm going with this as the least changed kitchen, so if the bugs here are fixed in any of the custom roms based on it it just means we need to get that fix into the "master" 3.5 OEM
I'll be editing this as I find stuff, feel free to post your findings here as well and I'll roll them up into this first post
Bugs
* Context sensitive Help doesn't work - open any app, say notepad or phone, then do start, help, and you get an error... but after dismissing the error you can view the help index and most all help topic seem to be there, so it's just the context help that's broken.
** Followup, compare AKU3.3 vs 3.5, 3.5 is missing several help files in LOC\813fd1d1-ca6f-4b6d-96d2-c97fb99bd535 that are in Helmi 3.3 kitchen in same folder - fix should be just a copy in of the missing files.
* WModem link seems wrong, but WModem.exe works OK if you launch it via totalcommander - link needs to be fixed
added 2/24
* Unchecking 'Use Advanced Networking' in ActiveSync settings fails, and displays an error dialog. (Workaround: most people can use advanced networking if the tcp packet size is set correctly via 2 reg settings - those could be in the base rom, they are "safe" even if you didn't need them, and will cut down on many ' I can't sync!' calls for help...) Still would be nice to figure out what's missing there - must be some issue/conflict with USB Serial Mode.
* Missing Bubble Breaker game
Enhancements
Not Bugs, exactly, but reductions vs the standard OEM rom...
* EVDO/Arrows - now get big EVDO and little arrows over signal that never show inactive but connected state, which is the MS default behavior
Possible Fixes
We've not set the formal process up, but if we go with 1.2 as the starting base rom we could have QA test the .NET/Windows live search fix, Smart Dial, and ## codes in the new base as the developers get started working on the other fixes.
