[Gowry]

I'm seeing the same problem as MSee...I did a soft reset while connected to USB and now my phone doesn't want to return after a soft-reset

Just pointing out In Vista it is syncing fine with "windows mobile device center"

I have a similar issue that when i reply to a text, after I send I dont see what i wrote.
Got spoiled with the Palm sms prog.
Waiting for PocketCM to be revised to allow contact deletions, then it will B all good.

Gotta say WM6 OS is a noticibly better performer in speed and I no longer get random freeze-ups on incomming calls, like I did two rom versions back.

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.

MAN am I glad to know I wasn't the only one to have this! Been running the WM6 ROM since Saturday and aside from a few hiccips IT ROCKS! MUCH faster, more stable, more functional etc.

But yesterday I was ready for the ole "PPC6700 MEETS BRICK FIREPLACE MODE". I must have tried for nearly an hour and a half to get any kind of charging to work. I tried 2 different mobile chargers (NON-OEM), the stock cradle, a zillion soft resets and even a HARD reset. Removed the battery-twice. Nothing worked.

I finally left the battery out for about 20 minutes, did a hard reset when it finally came back on (had a black screen for a L-O-N-G time--sweatin' a bricked phone) and got it to charge again. Wierd thing is it ALWAYS charged at home hooked up to my laptop (USB) but I wasn't home at the time.

Still don't know what the deal was, but glad I had (and used) SPB Backup. Didn't lose a thing. BTW SPB Backup fit great into the EXT_ROM2 space. ROM available space, 1107 KB; SPB size: 1047. Still got 60 KB left!

Another user also referenced this issue in post #305.

I am also having this issue. Has anybody found anything that helps? I am missing quite a few calls b/c the volume gets turned all the way down even though the phone is in lock mode.

Yeah. I do that on all of our phones. No Love.
Could it be an issue with the Bootloader?

I just tried something to see if there was a difference and it worked.
Before I started having this issue, I had switched the advance USB-PC setting off to help make the transition to Activesync work more reliably.
As I have noticed recently that it really wasn't that consistently reliable, I turned it back on and voila- I haven't seen this charging recognition issue again.
I don't know that this is guaranteed, but it seems to be working for now.

Has anyone tried installing any virtual keyboard apps? I've tried 2 and they appear in the list of keyboards, but when I select them, nothing happens. I miss the T9 predictive keyboard, its the only way I was able to type one handed while driving.

The HTC Home today plug-in also adjusts the volume to silent/vibrate during calendar entries - you sure this isn't the problem you're runing into? You can eliminate the volume setting screen with the customizer app (found on the furms) and that function goes away.

I love the new upgrade and all but i am having some trouble getting and sending text messages. people are getting my texts but when i send a text or somebody sends me a text i don't know who i got it from; it doesn't show the name or number i got it from and i can't not reply to it either. if somebody was having the same problem and have a way to fix it please let us know .

Alert Volume... brought up twice before this without any possible solution... call ring volume is alright...
