This is the bug collection thread for the Apache WM6 Kitchen CE OS 5.2.1908 (Build 18508.0.7.0) 071108_1. I'll gather bugs into this first message, so folks don't need to poke all over to find them. Please note that this thread is for bugs occurring in the ROMs produced via the kitchen, the file contents of it's OEM packages, or problems with their configuration or interaction. Bugs related to BuildOS,the tool used to compile/flash the ROM images, should be posted to it's bug thread.

Unconfirmed Bugs

• Missing MMS-Video?
• O2 Option issue?

  If you just select O2 you don't get anything.

Non-Kitchen Bugs

• Weatherpanel is known to cause lock-ups

• MobiTV

  Quite a shame too. I really like that SIP, but I REALLY like MobiTV2 better.
  ... better that SprintTV due to the frame rate... Anyway... back on topic:
  I tried many different builds of the ROM, from stripped down, to fairly loaded. Same result. If HTC Touch Keypad was included... No MobiTV2.]

• GPS Navigation

  I have a bug with iguidance 3.0.1. When you setup a route and it starts navigating you, if you touch the screen to go to menu for example it exits the program. This does not occur with 3.5 1.0.4 kitchen.
  
  I have the same issue with TomTom6 with build 071107_02 and build 071108_1.

Confirmed Bugs

• TouchKeyboard SIP disables messaging auto-completion

  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409]
    "Ime File"="\\windows\\eT9Ime.dll"

  In order for auto completion/correction to work, you have to use the comp ime, not the et9 ime.
  
  For completion to work, it should read:
  

  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409]
  "Ime File"="compime.dll"
  "Layout Text"="COMP IME"

  I'm assuming this would break the touch keyboard's features, but feel free to test it.

• Vogue Dialer OEM Causes Dialer to Popup on Application Close
  

  I have the HTC Vogue dialer and a fairly basic ROM installed from the kitchen. As I was setting up everything it seems the screen kept returning to the dialer view (sometimes the keypad and other times the in call screen).

• Simple PIN Locks Up Phone?

  Edit:
  
  More detailed Steps to reproduce:
  1. Go to settings and lock
  2. Select Simple PIN as your password type and set a password of at least 5 digits
  3. Soft reset your phone
  4. Wait for the device to fully load (IE the tool bar theme has loaded and the phone has found a signal)
  5. Now try to unlock the phone with your pin.

  ...yes I was able to confirm your report by doing a soft reset with password enabled (had similar lockup problems whether it was simple pin or regular password). I could never reproduce that behavior just with a simple inactivity timeout, but I know you said that was random. But it definitely occurred after every soft reset.
  
  I flashed back to every iteration of helmi's wm6 ROM I had and they all suffered that issue. Seems to be some sort of timeout issue... like the device is waiting for "something" once you click unlock, and when it doesn't happen in x amount of time the device gives up and proceeds anyway. That's what it "seems" like anyway--I could be way off base.
  
  I had helmi confirm that it does not occur on the Universal (which is the closest device hardware-wise to the Apache). So it's either a driver issue or something in the registry that's causing it. Hopeully we'll get to the bottom of it soon.

• PC to Phone IR communication problem

• SD-Card Transfer Speed
  

  Originally Posted by luv2chill

  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.

• Battery Meter Issue

• Battery Drains More Quickly

  I built Helmi's Kitchen with the same programs that I used in VerizonGuy's Kitchen. The only exception is the above-mentioned HTC Task Manager, where I used version 2.0.xxxx for Helmi's Kitchen.
  
  I rebooted my XV6700 with nothing else running. After 8 hours of inactivity on VerizonGuy's Kitchen, I still saw a battery level of 100%. With Helmi's Kitchen, I see my battery level at 70% after 8 hours of inactivity.
