When you say customizations completed as normal what do you mean? The only thing I can think of is that you let it run which you are not supposed to do.

I will be showing my appreciation soon after this post, I just completed the ROM update and I creamed my damn shorts!!! I was having so much trouble using my beloved XV6700 with my Vista x64, until now. Of course I did a soft reset B4 customization and I've had no trouble so far. I have fallen in love with my Apache all over again thanks to Helmi_c!!!

That's awesome, but next time do you need to shout like that?

you may want to test this further. i know that on mine, when using smartdial from the today screen, the numbers are mapped according to the mogul keys vs. how they are laid out on the 6700 keyboard.

Thank you!! Works perfect now that I did not let it customize. Can you explain why the customization causes this error, and while we are talking about it - do I need the extended rom2 folder and it's contents?

I also experienced the same problem - it takes the First Word from the text message and displays it as the From which means I can't see who the text message was from.

I tried: adding the sender to my contacts and editing the name to reflect their real name and having the contact re-text me, still the same - shows the first word of the text as the From or Contact who sent the message. Saw the fix mentioned above and tried it today and it does work - Fantastic! Awesome! Over the Moon! Thanks again Team :O)

You guys are awesome! Thank you =D>

The customizations cause this (and quite a few others) error because it is "overlapping" the tweaked customizations that are built into the ROM. The customizations that are built-in are tweaked for WM6 and most of the JunkWare is removed.
If you ran a generic ROM, you would need them, but then you would be using an extROM customization that wasn't designed to be used w/WM6.

Oh, and as far as needing to keep the contents of extROM2, most people save it somewhere on the PC "just in case" and delete it. You then have approx 10Mb of space to play with as additional storage if you keep it unlocked and unhidden.

I've been using this WM6 for about a month and I noticed that the phone/os is becoming a bit less stable over time. The one real annoying bug is that after looking up an entry in the CONTACTS, if I select "Send a Text Message", the phone ignores my tap. I also see this behavior (of ignoring my taps) on the three boxes on the today screen that let me go into Text Messages, Email and Missed Calls.

Anyone else?

Maybe I’ll backup my contact data and reload.

Suggestions?
