Good suggestion - removed HTC Home from today, loaded the phone up with even more programs, and I'm rebooting wonderfully.

Thank you!!!!

for anyone having issues with downloading email with the new rom, I have found that you can download them directly through sprint if you use your actual email ID (not your phone number) and the password that you set up on sprints website...

) this was one of the first apps I wanted to install. I did and it seems to have a mem release problem. Meaning I will open up another app (that obviously uses mem) and when I close it the mem is not released. Basically I end up with below 1mb of program mem. Soft reset... It all comes back.

I cant be for certain its MShell but I'm pretty sure.

No problems for me with Mobile Shell -- it installed fine and it's not causing any memory problems. (But, I didn't have any problem with MS1.0 or with 1.5 on the stock ROM.)

I had the same issue with the green Windows Mobile screen locking up on me today. After lots of failed attempts, I had to finally do a hard reset and lose lots of great customizations. Oh well, such is life on the bleeding edge. Anyhow, wouldn't removing the HTS home plugin from the Today screen defeat the purpose of using a cool build like this. It is one of the most prominent features right? Anyhow, I've found some bugs that I'd like to report:

On Verizon network....

Tried to report an issue to police via 911 and it failed twice in a row. Did same thing as someone mentioned earlier. Sat for a long time, finally beeped seveal times and disconnected. Call never went through.

Today, I did a *228 to update my roaming list and recording on phone said it completed successfully. However, it didn't rebooot the phone automatically like it used to. I did a soft reset and that is what began my odyssey into the locked green splash screen.

On this build, vs. the most recent kitchen, the connection to Verizon's data network seems to be on all the time. That is really draining the battery. I think there is a registry hack for this. Either way, I found it interesting that this is the way it is by default in this version.

I'll report more issues as I come across them. Overall, very cool!

Just did it again (*228 over the air update) on Verizon and it did the same thing. The phone (6700) locked up on soft reset during the green Windows Mobile splash screen. Had to hard reset. A word of warning for folks out there trying to do *228 with WM6 recent build. Unless it is just happening to me. Anyone else see this?

WiFi is working for me on my WPA-PSK [TKIP] network.

First, I go to Settings/Connections/Connections/Advanced/Select Networks. This pulls up the "Network Management" screen. In the drop-down list for "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:", I select "My Work Network" - as opposed to my carrier's cell network.

When I connect to the WiFi network, on the "Configure Wireless Network" screen, I set "Connects to:" to "The Internet".

(Presumably to connect to machines on my private network, in the "Network Management" screen I'd leave the drop-down list for "Programs that automatically connect to a private network should connect using:" set to "My Work Network". When I connect to the WiFi network, on the "Configure Wireless Network" screen, I'd set "Connects to:" to "Work". I had this working in WM5, but didn't make notes.)

This is all pretty much as it was in WM5. It's a pain in that to switch between WiFi and Cellular internet browsing, I have to keep changing that for "Programs that automatically connect to the Internet should connect using:" dropdown.

WHEN I CONNECT, or if I switch the phone off for a moment or not use the connection for a few minutes, I have to renew the IP address. (Even though on the Wireless LAN screen I'm still listed as "connected".) I go to the Advanced tab and hit "Renew IP", and I can communicate again.

Again, this is as it was in WM5. Perhaps it our NetGear router; my wife's laptop has a similar issue and solution when connecting. I'm no WiFi expert.

Happened to me on a clean and simple 3.5 rom. I did *228 as soon as the WM6 rom loaded (before soft resetting to kill the customization), and it went through. I won't be trying it again, it will lock up the phone.
