For the voice command, go to settings/voice command. It should be there.

PLease keep your eye on that unlocker. I was using it and I thought that it was consuming my battery at an alarming rate. I had it set to turn on after 5 minutes and to unlock with a password (using the start>> settings>> Lock setup) and my battery was dead after half a day with not much else going on.

FYI, I did use the kitchen but used no different OEMs than I have in the past.

I immediately assumed it was hardware related but I never had one single issue prior to the flashing of the 21042 rom with the Rev A kitchen. To me that seems to be too much of a coincidence...

Late response, but I had exactly the same issue.

The boss you have a text message is marked as hidden in the windows directory and will have to have the hidden checkmark removed before it will show up in notifications menu it is an mp3 file if I remember correctly. The name of the file is Excuse me boss.mp3

The weather can be added by installing the cab attached. turn off Windows Default in Start>> Settings>> Today Settings>> Items and then launch the cab. Once it is loaded you can reactiviate it. You will now see a new panel towards the bottom called Launcher. Select it and then hit the Setup soft key and follow the directions from there.

There is also a forum dedicated to the CHOME Configuration (adding and editing the panels) here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=63086

As for the alert for the text messages, it is something that comes with the XBOXMOD Manila 2 and can be changed to anything you want by the usual notifications options in Start>> Settings>> Sounds and notifications.

Hope this helps.

I downloaded the latest rom (RUU_SSK_16_21028_loaded), because I love the older ones. The older ones were verizon specific, is the new one? and if not, how do i make it for verizon?

Speaking of older ones. I loved the 21015. I used the latest kitchen with the TP2 manila and the 21015 build. I then installed the latest 1D xbox cabs and this thing is working out awesome. You guys have to try this. The only issue I can NOT seem to get around is that the "remove progrmas" stays blank no matter what you install or have installed. Besides this, everything has been working flawless. try it out!

I too am a huge fan of 21015. It's my new 20931. I roll to it when I need my phone to be rock solid for a bit.

On a separate note, I am completely amazed at how quickly a person (myself) can get out of the loop on a thread. I got busy in the last 2 weeks with other stuff, and am completely lost.
