This used to happen with some of the older WM5AKU3.5 ROM, but all my WM6 ROMs up until this one had no such issues.

Trident -I'm pretty sure mine still did this on occasion with the original WM6 Helmi beta release. I ususally ran into this issue after a soft-reset while plugged in or shortly after a reset. I think it's just moody...

Great Job to everyone who's made this possible! I haven't tried the kitchen yet, because I can't decide what all to include and now I need to figure out the OEMizer... too much good stuff! =D>

up to now i have the same problem...i thought it was a defective charger, returned it and got a new one. same problem..........i realized that if the battery has a certiain amount of power, roughly 80% or more, it wont start charging for a couple of minutes....give or take 5-7 minutes. I know, this sounds weird, but I went through 3 PPC-6700's, all with different roms and 2 car chargers, same problem...but it eventually starts charging.

I know that I am not too bright, but I don't seem to be able to save my build.

I push "save file" and then I push the save file icon on Build OS and nothing happens to the file it just reverts to the default.

This is a great kitchen!!!! it works fast and stable.

Thanks to all who participated.

I have had the charging issue as well with all of the ROM's it is a phone deal a believe because it did it with the Stock ROM's as well. I have only had it happen after any kind of reset. The work around I follow is to hit the power button on the top of the phone to turn off the screen, then plug it into the charger. That seems to alleviate the problem.

Is anyone seeing a skipping condition with music coming from a SD card in the kitchen? It seems the first 5 secs of most songs has the skipping condition and then it settles down. Maybe its the retrieval from the SD card? I am not using a Bluetooth headset to listen, just a std wired headset.

Is there anything I can do to pump up the volume on the phone also?

Thanks,
Steve

This is caused by you selecting the SDHC driver when you built your ROM. As it turns out some registry entries need to be adjusted to slow the transfer rate down to prevent the skipping. Verizonguy has figured out the necessary entries and posted them in the Bugs thread before this one (071107_2). If you're comfortable editing the registry you can do that yourself. If not, those changes will be in the next build of the kitchen.

Or, if you don't have a SDHC card, then build instead with the SD-only drivers and this problem won't occur.

Just as a side note & this doesn't necessarily apply to your situation, but all mini-usb car chargers do not necessarily work on all mini-usb devices. Most of the car chargers you find on ebay for <$10 that claim they work on the 6700 will actually drain your battery rather than charging it.

For car chargers, it is always a good idea to spend a couple of extra dollars and get an oem charger made by UTS. Here are the official oem chargers made by UT Starcom:

Where can I find the correct entries found by Verizonguy? Thanks.
