Apache WM6 CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2) Bugs/Patches
 
I started this thread so we can start collaborating and fixing bugs.

1. *********Word Completion Issues************


UPDATE
****Had to hard reset and it word completion works now******



2. *************WPA-PSK TKIP Workaround thanks to Member nico4k*************

I FOUND A WAY TO FOR THE WIFI TO WORK WITH WPA-PSK TKIP.
THIS IS HOW I DID IT: (i recommend to soft reset your device before you try this to ensure success chances)

1. TURN YOUR WI-FI ON. THEN CONNECT TO YOUR WIRELESS NETWORK (ENTER YOUR WPA KEY ETC).

2. LE THE WI-FI DO IT'S THING FOR ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS. (IN THE MEANTIME GO TO THE COMM MANAGER)

3. NOW TURN THE WI-FI OFF (WAIT 2 SECONDS) AND TURN IT BACK ON. WALA, YOU SHOULD CONNECT AUTOMATICALLY RIGHT-AWAY (AFTER A FEW SECONDS) TO THE WI-FI YOU JUST CONFIGURED.

(THIS EVEN WORKS WHEN THE PHONE GOES TO SLEEP MODE, THE WIFI RECONNECTS WITHOUT ANY ISSUES)

Here is the how-to on youtube for those that dont like to read. LOL

3. ******Built in phone lock issues********

I myself had the issue of if you enable the built in phone lock or use exchange with forced phone lock policy, after almost every soft boot, the phone will lock up at the lock number pad. Well I don't have a total fix but this worked for me. Must be fast on your fingers and as soon as the lockpad comes up dial in your code and go for the unlock softkey. It will get you through.
I have also noticed if you wait after the soft reset and when bluetooth re connects to a paired headset, it will lock up on the lockpad. I have tried and removed phoneExt_service.dll from the registry and softbooted using shutxp and now the lockpad will not lock up on soft reset for me. But I am now having issues with the dialer. If anyone has any other input on this please pm me and I will gladly add it to this issue.
Thanks,

Mikee

5. ***********Microsoft Voice Command v1.6.4622.0**********

ID Transfer is not working. Also VC dies intermittently and stops responding from the bluetooth paired headset. It and also causes the phone to lock up intermittently requiring a soft reset. I gave up on using this until the kitchen is released. If anyone has had better luck please let me know.

BTW Microsoft Voice Command is not freeware. It's not included in this rom. Please go and purchase your own copy.


**********Update************

Try this patch and let me know if Microsoft Voice Command is working properly.

6. ***********Phone Carrier Codes***************

None are working as of yet. If you need to update your roaming, search to forums on how to manually update it.

******Update******

Phone codes are working if you install the updated Big Button Dialer for the mogul. Click on the link below to get it.

7. *************HTML Email***************

Works with any pop and imap and if using Microsoft Exchange, it will only work with Microsoft Exchange 2007. Sorry any older version of Exchange is all txt.


************** I will be posting all the fixins now that I am back in town so you don't have to go trollin' throught the forum***************


8. **************WM6 Internet Sharing********************

A bunch of people have reported this and there is a workaround. Disable Advanced Network Functionality un USB to PC in Settings. Soft Reset. Turn off bluetooth. Turn on Internet Sharing and plug phone in. This seems to do it every time.


Please PM me if you would like for me to add a fix or topic to the first post.

Same here, having no issues at all...

Could you please be a little more specific...

After a hard reset it works...Strange.

Wireless manager doesn't open when you press and hold IE button.


Q

Raging Idiot 08-31-2007 11:15 AM

there is some redundancy...
2 recorders (the new one doesn't seem as good as the old one...am I missing something here?)
2 calculators (the old calc gets its buttons kicked by the new calc)
2 internet browsers... IE and Deepfish... I already use PixelBrowser and Netfront, but that's just me.
2 File explorers... yeah, Resco is better and needs to be registered...
3 Modem Linking apps... I don't know enough on this to know the differences
3 Media Players... I suppose this is still necessary for functionalities/compatibilities.

UnlockExtendedRom... isn't it now unlocked by default? I didn't need to run this to use it as extra space on mine anyway, but maybe I just don't know something else this does.

Function to "Suggest Words" when entering text (default is now to suggest after entering SPACE, I just set it to be after 3 letters) btw- that can be fixed under "Global Options" within the Notes/Options Menu.

Edit- this only occurred while other apps were running in the background: (The sand game is cool, but it kicked some dirt in the eye of my little processor. Locked it up within minutes of playtime. Maybe we just need to learn how to play nicer in the sandbox, but it definitely can lock up the clockwork and is just asking for a cold boot.)

Also, YahooGo is for Yahoos. Is there a goog app out there for us Googlians?

Not bad...
 
Well, I was going to wait for the kitchen to be released, but I couldn't stand the suspense any more and had to upgrade. So far it is working GREAT, with one exception...

My only problem is that I could not get the WM6 version of the p@lm threaded SMS app to work. Text messaging works fine -- until I install that program and then the device won't send/receive texts at all. I realize this is probably an issue with the app, but others don't seem to be having this problem on other devices. I was wondering if anyone else has tried installing it and could report back.

Other than that, I can't wait for the kitchen... :D

When viewing a video fullscreen in Windows media player (also MobiTV) the screen doesn't goto landscape mode, so it makes viewing in fullscreen kinda point less. Using CorePlayer it shows just fine.

TExt Messages
 
I love it, but just realized that it doesn't show who's sending the text message... Anyone else?

pdx77 08-31-2007 11:44 AM

For those of you who are having the text messaging issues, did you let the carrier customizations run? I remember having this issue with a previous ROM, and what fixed it was to NOT let the carrier customization run.

Try hard resetting your phone, and when it prompts that it is going to start the customization in 3 seconds, do a soft reset and see if that works.

Just a note, that all of the customizations for your carrier are built into the ROM (assuming you installed the correct one for your carrier)
