I had a grease fire in the kitchen last night lol. I cooked a ROM and flashed it to my device. I got the appache screen then BAM a white screen. But through the white screen appeared my crosshair for the screen setup. I set the screen then the time and a box popped up saying wxtask could not load button_image or something to that effect. Incidentally I wrote exactly what it said and the paper is laying on my desk at home. Anyway the screen went to what was supposed to be my today screen which looked really strange with lines all over. I can't describe what it looked like but it was unreadable. Anyway I tried several ROMS with almost everthing removed , including wktask, and had the same result. So I cooked a ROM with vzguys kitchen to get me through the day since I work 24 hour shifts. So tommorrow I will reinstall the kitchen and try again. The only thing I changed, which may be the culprit, was I added a couple of ringtones in the additional ringtone folder in the OEM_user folder. I think I added a sound as well to the sounds folder. I just wanted to test if I could add my own ringtones during flash. Let me know if this is what burned my kitchen to the ground.

I wish I still had that on my device but I removed it last night. Sorry but that was where my problem was and I had the exact issue you described. Maybe someone else can help. Also try the Palm SMS thread http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=7769. Hope you get help there.

I have never seen a different cause for the white screen issue. I would bet money that your ROM was too full. |

It has worked out very well (the kitchen itself was put on one also) but I just don't have the kind of bandwidth to support making it public. Ideally when Mike moves PPCGeeks to a dedicated server (no ETA on that) we could install svn there and be able to have official repositories for stuff. But as well as a lot of transfer allocation, the connection really needs synchronous up and down speeds to be effective. |

Activesync is being a btich. But Ill get it working
I also had the problem with the white screen, then it would show the today page, just before popping up the wktask png file not found. reflash took care of that. Is there a way to disable the auto align. I need to be able to align the screen or I cant get to the teir autoinstaller |

And those of you having space issues in general should check to see if you're including the Additional_Ringtones, Additional_Themes, and Addtional_Sounds OEMs. If so you should really go into each of those folders (they are in User_OEM) and delete out the things you won't use. By default: Additional Themes is 1.08MB Additional Ringtones is 332KB Additional Sounds is 227KB The themes one especially could/should be pared down--there are a lot of themes on there, and frankly you can store all the themes you're not currently using on your SD card. IMHO, themes in a ROM are kind of a waste of space. The benefit of that additional_themes OEM though is that it will set a theme up for you as the default if you put that theme's file name into the rgu file (open it up--you'll see where it goes). |

XP - initial attempt with the "just build it and continue" installer, phone was booted into windows mobile, and connected via activesync (you know, as if I were doing an OEM Sprint Rom Update) This is my standard XP vmware image running under linux that I have been doing all my kitchens in, nothing changed there. After I got the message, I just assumed I needed to go with the noid version, so I did - including putting the 6700 into bootloader first... Lemme check right now for the version... Yep, when I put it into bootloader doing power-notes-reset it's 2.02 It's not a biggie - was more of a question of "should it have worked". |
