Apache WM6 Kitchen CE OS 5.2.1908 (Build 18508.0.7.0) Bugs/Patches

[w0rdie]

Whats the file that needs to be edited to allow custom cities for HTC Home Weather?

[?GotJazz?]

Possible problems I have noticed with WM6K01:

• Word completion does not appear functional.
• I have selected all my e-mail accounts to download 20 KB for new messages. It appears to still download only 2 KB of data (the default value).
• I just had a "Reminder" pop up, and my XV6700 did not vibrate (although it is configured to).

That said, THIS KITCHEN LOOKS AWESOME!

I was totally impressed with AKU3.5K04, and this Kitchen looks even better!

The build process is totally integrated now ... The BuildOS is so much nicer (and, it allows you to "Save"!)

Two big fixes for me in this Kitchen (compared to my last WM6 attempt):

• Bluetooth can now enabled while setting up a new Internet Sharing connection.
• Hotmail integrates properly with the Messaging app.

Cheers!

1. This must be due to your particular mix of OEMs. I just flashed a ROM and tried word completion both in word and in outlook sending a new e-mail and word/e-mail address completion worked fine in both cases. Tiermann tested this also.

2. According to naigaman (who spent some time on this issue), the available "kb to download" options for exchange and normal accounts is different. For exchange options are 0.5, 1, 5, entire message and headers only, and for reg email, it is 2, 5, 20, 50, headers only and entire message. Did you try to set these values in the messaging app itself or did you preconfigure them using OEMizer or some other method?

In any case I just tried setting values through the Messaging app and they appear to be working as selected.

3. I set my reminder notification to vibrate, set a new appointment 16 minutes int the future and set a 15 minute reminder on it. A minute later my phone vibrated as expected.

If you continue to have these issues please post a copy of your selections.txt and indicate what, if any, OEMs, reg, etc. you have added.

Thanks for getting back to me on this, luv2chill!

As I've been testing, I have noticed that (for some reason) I am in X19 mode all the time now. I don't know how I got into it, or how I can get out of it. I've tried fooling with the Touch Keyboard / Touch Keypad settings, but those don't seem to be fixing the problem. I will probably reload my Kitchen again in a few minutes.

ADDENDUM: I just reloaded my Kitchen, and immediately tried entering a Note using the Keyboard. Word completion didn't work, and I still saw an X19 on the top of my screen. I rebuilt and reloaded my Kitchen with "HTC Touch Keyboard" removed, and the problem went away. I think this is a real bug.

I used the settings in the Messaging app when I configured each of my new accounts. I may have made a false-call on this (Sorry!). My current "threshold" is 20KB. I just sent myself some test messages, and apparently the message size "shrinks" after it has been fully downloaded. I sent myself a 16KB .PDF file, which was listed as a 23KB message originally, so it wasn't automatically downloaded. After I downloaded the full message, it was then listed as an 18KB message. (I'm guessing this is a result of the MIME decoding). I put up the false "bug" because I looked at a manually downloaded message that was now listed as under 20KB. I figured that since the message appeared to be under 20KB, and I had to manually download it, there was a problem. I don't know what the original size of the "bad" message was, but I'm guessing it was over 20KB.

My bad!

This one is odd. Sometimes I get a vibrate, and sometimes I don't. Maybe this will clear up after I rewrite the Kitchen.

If I have further problems, I'll let you know. Thanks to the whole for all the hard work! And, just as much, thanks for the wonderful support! Hmmm ... I feel another donation coming in the near future ...

Cheers!

I'm not sure if this is a bug or anomaly with WM6 but...

Bluetooth connection with both Helmi's original WM6 ROM and the kitchen.

Only installed applications
SPB Diary
Resco Explorer
Microsoft Voice Command 1.6
S2U2 (Slide to Unlock 2)

I have both a Jawbone (headset) and my PC (for bluetooth activesync) paired. After I've used either one about 3 times, the bluetooth service stops and I have to go into the Comm Manager and start it again.
Sometimes it will drop in the middle of a call when the Jawbone is in my ear. Also, Bluetooth Activesync will occasionally fail (even when the Jawbone is completely off) causing me to have to kill Activesync on the Apache and stop and start Bluetooth in the Comm Manager.

Any ideas?

Two issues I noticed:

1. If you select O2 plus you can't uncheck it.
2. When I try to open OtO, HB Setup, and HTCustom I get a message that "It's not signed with a trusted certificate or one of it's components can't be found..."

1. To manually deselect O2 Plus remove the line...
   

   43fef5a4-b736-11db-8314-0800200c9a66, True, O2 Plus

   ...from your Apache_Helmi_WM6 Selections.txt file.
2. OtO ran fine for me, haven't tried the other two. We'll probably need more specific BuildOS selections to help you further.

Small problem....
I get to the encode step, select sprint.prj and hit encode. nk.nbf, nk.nba, etc are created in the temp directory and step appears to complete successfully. I click exit, then in my build status window I see "nk.nbf not found" right after the "encoding" message. The files still exist in my temp dir though. When I choose "tools>Upload ROM to Device" I get the error message "nk.nbf not built yet". Any ideas? I know I can load this in other ways (since the file exists in the temp directory) but I would like to know what I may be doing wrong with the kitchen or if this is some kind of bug.

Do you have another kitchen on your PC? Likely you picked a prj file from that instead of the Tools folder of this kitchen. It's an extremely common issue that still gets me from time to time. That's why I added the disclaimer to the step where you choose your prj file (and why there are warnings in the tips.txt file as well). You at that step you should back all the way out to C: and drill back into the proper kitchen folder \tools directory to make absolutely certain you're using the correct set of prjs.

Hope that helps.

I'm still having problems. Not sure if it's an incompatibility between OEMs but I dont' have time to check each one right now. I just need a working phone.

Fantastic work guys. All of you. I've already dontated, but will send again when I get a bit of extra cash.
