Have you searched this thread for WPA-PSK? There is a "Search This Thread" link at the top you may want to try.

For the record, I'm not sure if a fix has been released yet. I did read that someone switched to WEP and it worked fine (WEP is definitely less secure than WPA though...)

This actually happened to me, once I went to the Helmi_C 3.5 1.03 rom. I have not be able to correct it since.

Well I tried flashing back to Helmi 3.5 v1.03 and incoming announcements worked fine with Voiec Command 1.6. Flashed back to WM6 and it didn't work so I guess its an issue. This is a big deal to alot of users as they use Voice Command to announce incoming calls instead of using a ringtone. Anyone else had this problem or figured this out yet?

Hello all,

OK, I've tried to keep up with all the pages of posts...in some cases they grew faster than I could read them. I finally updated my 6700 to Helmi's latest and greatest yesterday and configured it with my programs and such...prior I was running Phoenx06's initial 3.5 AKU bootloader version (the Sprint C&S ROM).

- The new ROM is not as fast...for speed, that prior 3.5 C&S ROM was the best I've used to-date (even better than Phoenx06's subsequent C&S ROM...for those who have tried his ROMs, the one I liked was the one with the Spiderman boot screen).

- When I open an HTML email in this latest version the message seems to be scrolled to the middle...kind of annoying. That said, it is nice to have the HTML email support (one of the main reasons I upgraded).

- Sending/receiving emails, as well as forming an ActiveSync connection (via USB) all seem to take longer.

- I don't like the way WM6 brings over all my Yahoo folders, as opposed to just the Inbox...I need to figure out how to have the Send/Receive process only look at my Yahoo Inbox (ideas?)

- I like the WM6 initial email screen, the one that lets you select the account.

- The different position of the Delete action in Messaging threw me off for a bit, but I'm getting used to it.

- I like the Audio Manager app...it even works with my Moto 820's (A2DP/AVRCP) and the control buttons.

- Of course the out-of-the-box support for mobile YouTube is awesome.

- I'm definitely not a fan of the HTC Today screen app. Sure, it brings together some decent features...but none of them are comprehensive enough for me. The clock is too big and annoying, the weather app has a lame default screen, and in the photo dialing I can't seem to set a default number. I went back to TofClock's (RIP) 700w Today plugin and PocketWeather instead.

- Nice set of games included

- The program redundancy was a little disappointing, but for people like me who can't make the mental leap to cooking our own ROMs, it's a minor annoyance. Even with the ROM's multiple programs for things like remote connections and media, and then the ones I added (PDANet, PocketPlayer) I still have scads of storage available.

- All my programs seem to work (PIEPlus, iGuidance 3.2, GoogleMaps, Live Search (forgot this was part of the ROM), MemMaid 2.0, Wisbar Lite, PocketWeather, PocketBreeze, VJCandela, eWallet, Resco Photo Viewer, etc.).

- When connected and in the process of syncing, the device is nearly unresponsive. I too have noticed the occasional hiccup when unconnected as well...just a delay after which the device operates as usual.

Not sure if I'll try to affect some of the other configurations I had in the past (e.g. remove SMS sent notifications, install VC, configure BT for each diversion to headset earpiece for GPS commands, etc.). I'll likely keep this setup, though, so I must be pretty happy with it. Thanks again, Helmi!

I posted about this a few pages back, but nobody except you and me seem to have this problem. Using acbTaskManager, I see that the Activesync process on the phone will spike to 80% or more when syncing.

Now that I've gotten TCPMP playing WMV files, I think I can live with the sync slowness.

Yeah, it's not that much of a problem...at times I like to keep the phone connected to my machine so it can charge, which I use if for DAP purposes...unfortunately the ActiveSync utilization causes MP3s to skip at times. It's not enough of an annoyance for me to revert, but it's something I'd love to see corrected.

I'm still hanging on for a kitchen.

WOOHOO - This rocks... (i know like a million people have said that.. but..)

For those who use GOOD Mobile Messaging, the good news, IT WORKS!!!!!! Installed, Configured and runs with no issues. ( Unlike the Kervin 3.5 c&s )

Is anyone else having issues with internet sharing? Prior to this install, I was able to use the internet sharing in 3.5c&s with the usb connection (dont have bluetooth on my laptop..) Now it doesnt seem to work.

On the phone side, it looks like it connects just fine... strangely, on the PC side however, it doesn't get an ip address from the phone. I did disable advanced networking on the phone side, but still no good.. any ideas?

weirdness.. after an hour or two of playing around, ICS has decided to work..

[Bad Sector]

I'm using the Sprint version on my 6700.

Problem: When I hit the End Talk button on face of phone, it ends my data connection. Sometimes it will not let me reconnect unless I soft-reset. Is there a way to disable the End Talk button from disabling my data connection?

Thanks.
