Apache WM6 Kitchen CE OS 5.2.1908 (Build 18508.0.7.0) - UPDATED 20071217

[sunny1974]

can anyone tell me whats the advantage or extra features of .NET 3.5RC2 framework over the 2.0 which we v been using till now? hope it doesnt mean we ll need to install a 3.5 on the comp too once we put it on the rom and on ph to make it compatible? is it still beta? or prerelease? is it sensible to take it in the rom?
thanks

You need .NET 3.5 Framework if you want to run any apps built against it. Unless you see an app that says it specifically requires .NET 3.5 CF or you're a developer planning on writing your own, I would stick with 2.0.

No Where In Your Instructions During The Setup And Install Of Your Kitchen Does It Say The Following Very Important Message ....

Once You Install It... The "cant Initalize The Application Errors Go Away And The Kitchen Starts........

Ran Kitchen Agian..same Error..cant Connect To Device...killed Activesync

Second Problem... Some Weird But Substantial And Important Information... On The "cant Connect To Device Error Problem.." And It Was As I Suspected...

I Was Determined To Try And Stop It From Killing Active Sync... And I Succeded... When I Clicked The Button To Start The Rom Upgrade To The 6700 ... I Immediatly Started Clicking The "sync" Button In Active Sync Making It Run...and Continously Clicking It Kept Your Program From Killing It... And Your Rom Upgrade Completed To The Phone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I Have Been A Hands On Professional College Degreed And U.s. Military Career Electronics And Pc Technician For 25 Years.... Im Not Some Punk With A Couple Of Frankensystems Under His Belt... I Know What Im Doing And What Im Talking About As A Troubleshooting Tech.... Your App Is Hozing Active Sync For Whatever Reason I Dont Know... But Ive Just Proven It....

Its Undeniable... So...ive Done The Hard Work...and Proven You Have A Problem And That It Is Your App Doing It... To A Hell Of Alot Of People...
Go Fix The Thing....

And Im Going To Go Try The New Kitchen On The 6700..... Oh.. That File Explorer That You Say Replaces The Original But Uses The Same Icon...that Thing Sucks.... It Has No Return To Next Folder Up If You On The Storage Card For A Few Times... Your Stuck And Screwed..cant Even Close It.... There Is No Going Back From The \xxxxxxxxx
It Sucks. Going Back To Total Commander...

Ok, first of all, and don't flame me..just asking, have you put the phone into bootloader mode? Because ActiveSync only has to be installed, it does not have to even be running if you are in bootloader mode.

I never ever hardly use the activesync app itself. It doesn't even load at startup for me. As long as it's installed, all you need are the drivers that it installs. If you are not putting the phone in bootloader mode, then that is why activesync is running, put the phone in bootloader mode, then plug it in to the computer. Actually, close activesync all together, then bootloader, then plug it in. Then hit the next button on the RUU at the end of the build.

Let me know... If you are doing it in bootloader mode, then there is no reason activesync is even open.

Love the project and what you are doing. I had one quick question for you though, and its probably just that I'm a n00b but every other rom has a button I can click on that will take me directly to my e-mail when I click on it. All I could find in here was the messages icon but unless I have unread e-mail it prompts me if I want to look at either my text messages or my e-mail. I never use text messages on the phone so is there any way that I can have it auto-forward to just my e-mail or that I can create my own shortcut for that? Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes, that is a new feature with this version of windows.

There is a way to go straight to your email.

Either modify the existing shortcut in programs, or make a new one to point to:

\windows\tmail.exe -service "ActiveSync"


Something like that, may have to try:

"\windows\tmail.exe" -service "ActiveSync"

I couldn't find HTC's plugin on Today Screen.... Where can I get it?

Just tried the new kitchen. I have 2 questions regarding how to configure PIE such that the volume slider can be used to scroll a web page, and pressing the E button (the button for lauching PIE) highlights the address bar. This is the default behaviour in older kitchens and the VerizonGuy's WM6 kitchen.

Thanks in advance,

You can also try going to the messaging app's "select an account" screen. Then hit "menu", then "options", and then uncheck the "display account picker when opening messaging".
