I have installed all my software and applied a few fixes mentioned in this thread. I am now having one last problem with my sound notifications. I dont know why my email notification is just making a beeping noise even when I have set a specific sound. Texts and phone calls are the same way. I tried putting my ring sounds in Windows/Rings and also in the ringer folder in my documents, same result both ways. I use the same sounds I used on 6.1 with no issues.

Anyone got any ideas? I been pulling out my hair to see if I missed something easy or if there is a bigger problem somewhere.

I have found also that when you set your desired sound, once you hit ok and go back to the today screen and come back to the notifications tab, you can no longer change the sound for text or email or MMS because the drop down menu is gone until you soft reset the device.

Do you use PDANet by chance?

Well sh*t then, lol. I dunno, you figure it out. That's way too many apps to guess what could be causing that ringer issue, especially since on a normal boot of this OS it's not a problem.

Okay folks, it's fixed! NO SCREEN LOCKS DURING CALL! The reason you don't see it is because it's a Palm program that's doing it, not part of a normal Windows core. I've tried to get the icon for KeyGuard to appear in the control panel, but no go.

Here's the fix that will prevent the screen from locking in call. And it sticks! :)

You're going to need a registry editor. I like CeRegistryEditor found at this link.
http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/index.php?id=3

Here's the key to edit:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\KeyTouch
In that key, you'll find a Dword value for "OnCallToday" that's set to "1".
Change this to a 0. Wait thirty seconds and soft reset. BAM!!! No screen lock! :)

Cfay, is there ANY way to disable the Windows wait cursor? It's driving me nuts!! :D

I'm curious, With the screen permanently unlocked, how do you talk on the phone without your cheek playing with the menu's?

Here's a fix for the spinning dots otherwise knows as the dreaded "Windows wait cursor that won't die"! LOL

Download MWC3 from XDA, you'll find the link below. Once you install it, go into programs and start it by click on MWC3. Once it's running, go back into programs and select MWC3 config. Use the following settings.

Splash screen: off
Autostart: on
Boot delay: 4s
Cursor timeout 1s
Start delay: 0.9s

Then swipe your finger across the screen from right to left and choose the "Diamond White" cursor. Then hit the checkmark box at the bottom right.

What will happen is when the wait cursor is called for by Windows, it will wait .9 seconds and pull up the "Diamond White" cursor instead. Now remember that timeout you set at 1 second? That's when it will dissapear. That means it start's and stops in one tenth of a second. So at worst, you'll see it briefly flash on the screen and disappear. Most often, I never see it at all.

Beauty of it is, it runs as a service so you won't see it in task manager. It will auto start with Windows after soft resets. And it appears to use very little memory. In fact, since I've installed it in this manner the device runs faster. I SWEAR! :) When I'm using file explorer, it flys. Try going in to your windows folder and see how fast it opens. Apparently the "Spinning dots" bug was actually slowing this thing down! :D

My update to the 6.5 seemed to work out pretty good. I am taking Malatesta's advice on not moving to 6.5.1. I do seem to have a little less free memory now averaging around 13mb, but overall the device is not locking up or anything.

A Few Questions

1) Are the themes specific to the device or can I download any theme for 6.5? I like the touch flo theme on the new Touch Pro 2 but this may render my device useless with what little memory I have.

2) Roaming - I see there is a Automatic A and Automatic B, anyone know what the differences are?

3) For the old software like Sprite Backup, Oz IM etc.. am I able to get that from Sprint's site somehow?


Thanks

I installed Cody's IE6 toggle and if I switch to PIE it works fine but the flash enabled IE6 will not load. Anyone else have this issue and have a fix?

My phone is running great now (actually it always has) and SPB MS pretty much hides everything Microsoft. I was a HUGE fan of flashing my Touch pro (did it 2-3 times a week between MightyMike, Juicy, Silence!) and loved the thrill of it all but almost always ended up back with WM6.1 because it just 'worked'.

Other than the 'thrill' does 6.5 offer any real benefits for the Treo Pro? If it didn't introduce any new bugs and fixed some existing ones (better battery, missing first letter of SMS etc.) I'll be all over it.

Hello I can't connect to data connection anymore after this ROM! When i start up internet explorer it says "Connecting: Phone As Modem Dialing #777" even though before the ROM upgrade it used to say "Connecting: Powervison #777".
Now it is only connected on like text messages and calls but no internet. Please help!

Hey, CFay... When installing this ROM it shows itself as version '1.51'... Did you forget to change it or did you package up the wrong ROM?

Thanks!
