in the registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Backlight/Lock Level
change to 0. save change and soft reset. Interesting that the problem is also in WM6. I had the error in WM5 even with AKU 3.5 and found it in my "experimental" 6700 with WM6....

WIFI Problems with WM6

Helmi,

I noticed that there are problems with using WPA-PSK on a lot of custom WM6 roms. There is a posted fix on the Dell x51v thread at xda. I am reposting it here. The original post shows in red where to edit WLANUtility.exe and iphlpapi.dll.

Same error exists in WLANUtility.exe and iphlpapi.dll library.
Official Dell A12 ROM also contains this error:

Noticed this too... would love to see an answer.

I did some comparing last night w/ my roommate's 6700 that we hadn't upgraded yet. I found this key on both devices:

HKLM\System\Inbox\Handlers\ComposeBodyCount={c59db 2e9-601c-423b-8bf3-352be01b89ba}

However, the corresponding "{c59db2e9...." Key was NOT in HKClassesRoot on my upgraded WM6 device. So I tried exporting that key from HKCR on his and importing in onto mine, reset the device and still no character count. :(

Unfortunately he had to work today and took his phone with so I can't keep playing with both... But maybe that will point someone else in the right direction?

Ok, I have a Sprint PPC 6700 with the stock WM5. It also has the same classid listed as above.
The registy entries under HKCR\CLSID\={c59db2e9-601c-423b-8bf3-352be01b89ba} are:

Default = "HTMLNote Compose Body Count Handler"
\InProcServer32\Default = "htmlnote.dll"
\InProcServer32\ThreadingModel = "Free"

My guess would be if you duplicated these entries and copied the htmlnote.dll to the new OS it just might work.

Firstly, thanks Helmi & all involved for all your hard work, it is much appreciated!

I've been running this WM6 ROM since Fri, and everything is great, only 1 small problem I am having, it's the same problem I had running the 1.0.4 kitchen, where weatherpanel & Windows Live (messenger) do not play nice together. On my first flash I had everything setup & installed (including Live) prior to installing WP, with no problem. The I installed WP, it ran fine until I soft reset, then it would not boot, it would hang @ the WM screen. Multiple resets, never would boot. Hard reset and setup & installed everything w/o Live, all is good.

Thanks again.

Does anyone else notice that this ROM sometimes has a problem recognizing that it is charging in a non-OEM device (namely a car charger). I didn't have a problem until yesterday, when I had to reset no less than 10 times in a two-hour span. I also noticed that if I reset while it was connected to the charger when it finished rebooting the OS determined that the battery was at 10% and gave me critically low battery warnings. At the time, the battery had no less than a 60% charge- probably more.

First of all, I love this build. WM6 on the Apache is wonderful.

I am noticing drastically reduced battery life. Is anyone else? I have the XV6700 on Verizon and even with beaming turned off (always) and Direct Push disabled, I am getting only 4 hours out of a battery with minimal usage. Ugh.

Have you tried removing windows live from the today screen and seeing if it still works, to isolate if it's a plugin conflict or something else?

Had to flash back to factory verizon rom due to a swap for a bad joystick today. All I can say is WOW, Helmi has really taken us a long way from the oem crap rom. Thanks so much
