What ROM are you using?

Also make sure you don't have the SASHIMI folder inside another SASHIMI ie:

Storage Card>>>>SASHIMI>>>SASHIMI

When you extract the files you will find them inside a folder called SASHIMI, hence SASHIMI inside SASHIMI. You need to have this:
Storage Card>>>>SASHIMI>>>>programs, auto ect....

Under the 4.0 section of the first post, theres a screen shot of the home page and right above the clock there's 4 icons, Phone, wifi, BT, data. Are these hotkeys to turn the features on and off and how do i get those icons to show? I dont see them in the 4.5 rom at all...

Thanks!

The cabs for all that stuff are in the SAHSIMI>>>AUTO>>>CABS folder. The cab you are looking for is comm.cab it believe and yes thats what they are for....

So far I am liking this rom. I have not had any other experience with Windows mobile 6.5 so I dont know how much of this rom is native 6.5 and how much is custom, but so far so good.

My only feedback for the creator is that it would be nice to have some good hirez bluetooth icons added. the bluetooth addon cabs provided is decent, but the icon is low rez and it doesn't show when you have an active headset connection. the stock rom had a bluetooth icon when on and then a bluetooth icon with a little headset over it to shows its actively connected. That was a handy feature for me...

Looks like I don't have comm.cab there, tons of other stuff tho....

Are we always installing stuff thru sashimi now, or can I run the cabs manually like before?

Side note, i'm not even sure how to install via sashimi, i think it launches on reboot automatically...

yes you can install manually or by auto install. I have attached the cab for you.

Ok, so I got the cab installed (ccomm) and the icons show up now, but they don't respond to touch at all it just scrolls up to voice mail?

Are these status indicators or are they supposed to be touchable?

They are both. You won't see then like taht when you scroll to them. You should see a setup. Tap the setup and select the defaults for each. Now you can swipe left to right and tap to turn on or off that specific radio.

Oh, I understand now. I thought you could just touch the icons, you have to scroll around. I see, now....

Thank you!

One other annoyance that I can't seem to turn off is the text completion thing at the bottom of the text message window that only appears in landscape mode. Its a gray box that tried to guess what you are typing and really slows the texting down. I have gone into "input" and turned off Word Completion, but that doesn't turn it off... Any ideas?

If you are using 4.5 it won't because it's not installed. Run this cab...

Nice!

Ok, This rom is doing what I need it to now.

Now I just have to learn WM 6.5. Seems like they are going the iPhone route and just throwing a ton of icons on one page. I kind of miss the older setup where you could have a few frequently used programs on a quicklaunch of sorts...

guess i need to install 4.5 to truly immerse myself in 6.5. what does 6.5 do for task mgmt? so if you removed all htc apps....does it revert back to old volume control? did you remove htc camera and album as well? long press end? thanks.

WM 6.5 task management appears to be the same as before. I just like having the shortcut in the top right hand corner.

Old volume control = yes
Camera works just like the stock sprint rom
Its still has an album but I don't think its the stock one...
Long Press is included (I use that alot)

Hey PTFD....Thanks again for the help. I figured out that only certain programs won't show on task manager, and I am not sure why, but its actually not a big deal at all really. Most everything that I use is fine.

Far as the com manager scrolling, I figured out that those only work to turn off, not on com modes.

I have been playing with this rom as much as possible today while at work and am liking the speed and ease of use. Very clean, very intuitive.

One question, and maybe this isnt the right place to ask, but is there a way to update the installed cabs that sashimi is managing without hard reset? I havent really started tweaking yet, but if I do, I am not gonna want to hard reset after getting it all perfecto.

P.S. It looks like I am idling at about 35% memory use. Is that what everyone else is seeing? This is with the 4.0 rom running touch flo. I was getting about 33 in 6.1 without using touchflo, but the memory leak was horrible with 6.1. This one doesnt seem to be getting bogged nearly as quickly, even after using opera.

I had the 4.5 rom on the phone last night and was missing some of the HTC stuff about 5 secs after first boot. Some of the HTC apps just make it plain easier to use stuff. Sorry had to bust off the opinion, and this is coming from someone that did not use touch flo with 6.1.

I have a couple of noob questions and I apologize before hand, but I have taken the time and read each post in this thread before. 1.) I.m using V4.5 Sprint and when I extracted the rom I do not see a file listed as "sashimi" but I do get an error message when my phone does boot up that it can not launch the file. I have also searched my phone but still can not find the file. 2.) With my phone I do not have a data plan, but after installing the new rom last night I noticed today that all the data plan functions now work... internet/weather/email...etc. Do you think this just a coincidence, and sprint screwed up last night exactly at the same time I installed the new rom? Thanks for any suggestion you can give and for your work on such a great ROM! dT

you have to download the sashimi pack from the first post and extract to your storage card. you are probably being billed casual rate for your data usage, which is bad.

Correct, you need to download the SASHIMI folder from the first post... MAKE SURE WHEN YOU EXRACT IT YOU ONLY HAVE ONE SASHIMI FOLDER. mOST PEOPLE WILL EXTRACT ITAND HAVE SASHIMI FIXED AND THEN A SASHIMI FOLDER INSIDE OF THAT. YOU NEEDD TO HAVE THE ONE INSIDE. SO IT SHOULD GO SASHIMI>>>>PROGRAMS, AUTO, MANUAL ECT.

NOT SASHIMI>>>SASHIMI>>>PROGRAMS ECT.

I USED CAPS BECAUSE THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT AND THAT SEEMS TO BE CONFUSING FOR SOME BECAUSE OF THE WAY IT EXTRACTS.

You might want to add a data plan or disable the data connection. It will connect automaticly to update weather ect.

there's also a cab in here somewhere that truly disables data. activesync and a few other apps seem to at times ignore the fact that you want your data off and turn it on for you. if you're not considerign any data plan i would install this program and not depend on comm manager.

I just checked my phone and I still have access to all data; even though I have the nodata cab file installed and "sprint" and "phone as a modem" disabled. I checked it after in installed the cab file and I couldn't access the internet. Now when I went to check my text I noticed the weather was updated. I guess I better go back to my old rom until I can figure this out. Still don't why my comm manager on shows... phone/wifi/bluetooth. Thanks again for everyones help and assistance.

i'm assuming you reboted after you installed the no data? might want to also kill active sync. there's a cab for that too.

Couldnt you go in with titanium customizer and remove the weather "tab" all together to avoid this?

EDIT: I posted that late last night and didnt really say enough to be helpful. I am re flashing at the moment. When it is done i will do some looking and make sure which program im talking about, and the steps needed.

Ok install the attached cab. Go to Start>Settings>Today. Uncheck "Windows Default". Close that screen. Find titanium customizer in your start menu. Run it. Find TitaniumWeather in the list. Highlight it. Then hit disable. Then Save. Now go back to the Home settings and renable "Windows Default". Titanium Weather should be gone. So it shouldn't update anymore. If you have anything else that automatically makes data connections you will have to disable them as well.

This program was made by lpaso over at xda. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497232 <<original thread at xda

Hope this helps

Is there anyway to install the Outlook Enhancements 1_1_1822_3121? This seems to give some cool features. No one seems to answer this question. It's all I could even ask for with your ROM. I too have been flashing for months to find the right version, etc. and this seems to run the smoothest with the most open RAM.
