|MalROM|WM6.5.3 (23518)|WM6.5 (21889) [Feb 3rd]

[Malachi]

Probably been covered before, but can't seem to find anything.... anyway

I've noticed that some programs just won't work on these 6.5.x roms, and some will, but not fully. Example, Pocket Express will work on this ROM, but the weather tab in Express won't show any weather. It wil show cities, but when I click on them I get nothing. Also, if reading a news story, if I click on the photo, it opens, then closes and gives me an error and shuts down express. Another one is Pocket e-Sword, for some reason it won't work either. Loads up, but won't find the bibles.

Also, GPS Weather Radar just gives me an error and won't load at all.

I'm starting to think it must be some compatibility issue or something since it seems to be on any custom ROM I use. Will someone explain this to me, and tell me if there is a fix for this? I'm almost thinking it has something to do with .netcf, but not sure since I don't "think" Pocket e-Sword uses .net, but I could be wrong....

What's the scoop?

Is your phone unlocked? Have you flashed before or are you still on stock? I would start by backing out of this thread, go into the HSPL/unlocker thread and read at least the first few posts in there from Cmonex then read about flashing, it's actually relatively easy but there are still inherent risks. I'll see if I can find the thread for you, but searching for it should be able to get it for you. Only use the HSPL from this forum...DO NOT use any other or you may have issues. PM me or post your questions if you're unsure of something, there's plenty of great people to walk you through it here.

I don't use pocket express or pocket e-sword, but I did just try GPS weather radar and it loaded up fine when I prompted it to load location and radar. I know most of the apps I'm loading do note some verbiage about not showing up correct due to the later version of windows but I haven't had any problem with it. What CAB are you using for the GPS weather radar? I also think all custom ROM's have updated .netcf.

Is anyone using MS Tag Reader on this most recent release successfully?

Am I the only one having this 191 line errow with Titanium weather? Anyone got any ideas on a fix?

But currently, there are no new WM builds out to update, ergo no new "killer" features. So I'm not sure what else I can do. Well, I still need to do some custom icons and organize the Start Menu--so that's something.

Have a busy weekend though and I'm finishing the Treo Pro ROM, so it'll be awhile before the next update--maybe by then there'll be something big to talk about too.

Cool. Will keep an eye on it and look to incorporate. Lord knows we need a better task manager. Although I'm using Task Facade right now, which is sort of cool.

2.5 Calendar Port?

Also, any way to get hardware zoom working in IE and Opera? I have yet to find a 23518 build that has hardware zoom working. In IE when you try to hardware zoom, IE seems to freeze up for a bit.

Download this version and try. I'm using it on 6.5.3 w/out a hitch.

We use it on WMExperts to link to software. Like this story yesterday. It's great for stuff like that.

Yeah, will probably get around to doing that, though it's not like an amazing new thing.

Will look into the zoom bar. Personally, I find it the most superfluous "feature" on the TP2...i never use it.

hey mal do u plan on releasing a 2.5 6.5 rom?

[1999TL]

Mal, I finally got to see how it works. Thank you. pretty nice.

I actually think the hardware zoom is pretty nice. I don't like adding the documents scrolling hack b/c it seems to mess things up though.
