8 APR 09 - UPD 25: Mods please lock this thread!

A couple issues I've noticed after cooking 21042.

1) Opera works great, but IE6beta will not load any page. It's like it can't see the network, but never gives an error.
2) Cosmetically, the network says it's "Sprint". I've actually had a case where it shows both Sprint and Verizon. I may go back to just using the Verizon only carrier, rather thenthe Generic.
3) I have a couple apps installed like Update PRL and Update Profile. Are these Sprint apps? Are they supposed to be there? If I run one by accident is it going to screw something else up?
4) Diamond TF3D Tweak utility does not work.
5) I need to disable the startup sound. I have tried Advanced Configuration Utility but with it set to disabled, it still sounds off. Phone reboots for backup each night twice. I don't wanna' get woke up by this.

Anybody have any fixes. I've read through the last few days posts and didn't see these mentioned. If they have been, I apologize.

Great work Scott. ROM is fast!

21042 Base OS Bug report:

1) I confirm these apps are installed: the icons appear in Settings/System tab: they don't function when tapped.

2) Phone locked up charging on PC/USB connection: LED cycle in continuous loop after disco, and can't do anything but soft reset. I haven't had this happen on any other builds before this.

More to come if/when I find them.

#1 - They are Sprint Only apps. Nothing happens if you have Verizon.
#2. - I don't think it's a specific 21042 issue. I've seen this happen with different OS's.

Thanks Bob... but...

1) I chose Verizon for my carrier, so they shouldn't really be installed: I don't need extraneous apps in my settings tab, or anywhere for that matter. The .exes are found in _OEMAPPS folder, and I suspect if I delete them, they won't find a home in my next build.

2) Like I said, I have cooked more builds than I care to mention, and I have yet to see this happen. I will see if it's a reoccurring problem and report.

Anyone else having a problem when typing in the "To" field in the WM New SMS screen?

If I type "Ni" in the To: field, I see the WM name suggestions show up just under the To field and the HTC suggestions just above the keyboard.

Before this kitchen I would be able to just typ "Ni" and hit enter to send a SMS to Nicole. Now I have to hit the "Nicole" that is listed in the WM contact suggestion dropdown. If I just hit enter (selecting the HTC suggested contact) and try to send, I get an error saying Text Message cannot be sent. The failed msg shows up as being sent to someone else beside Nicole as well.

Obviously not a show stopper though. I am using the 21042 OS w/ the TP2 manila, Sprint carrier.

Under Input Options, do you have "autocompletion" checked?

I did.

I just tried disabling everything "auto..." and "...completion..." in touch input settings and disabled auto correct in the Word Completion settings. Didn't work, same thing happened.

Tried a soft reset after making rhe changes too, no good.

1) I said the same thing earlier....maybe the boss is listening.
2)Please do. My personal opinion is it's a hardware issue. If the temp sensor gets too hot....it stops the charging. Scott differs - he thinks it's software...It could be a combination.. If the sensor "says stop" it's got to tell the software to do it.

Your talking 102 Kilobytes.
They are NOT linked to the control panel items although you may feel they are. They become linked when you install the sprint provisoning cab. Otherwise they are just harmless icons. aThey take 102,000 BYTES. Thats pretty insignificant.

If you do decide to remove then please dont complain about the two missing icons that look like blank Windows in the control panel in there place ;c( That was the issue I had. Then when you go and install them again you will have two icons. THink back to 1.5. Thats why I went this route. But its not hurting anything other than the two PRL icons.

Im thinking about re-basing off from the Alltel ROM so it would exclude that next time. But for now this is fine, well to me anyways.

If you also decide to delete those you need to find the hidden proxml that places them there. I am not sure which one it is but its something like inititflashfiles.dat. Note that its .dat and not .txt like normal.

Correction: Its NOT in the initflash.dat. I thought it was. I will keep looking.... I KNOW it can be taken out. I did it once.... Hold on....

I cant find it but I know its in there somewhere. I searched and searched and searched and could not find it then found it one day when I wasnt looking for it.


Screw it... Alltell, here I come!

Using SSK 1.6 with 21042_1_9_3, is there a limit on how many OEM's I can cook in. It seems like after 8, it wont generate a rom.
I have around 25 custom OEM's that I want to use.
