Helmi Apache WM6 verizonguy edition (early devel)

[Goddbody]

That Rom update by Helmi is a public safety hazard not withstanding the fact that it jacked up a lot of people's handset and during the time they needed their cell phone to work the most (during a 911 call...it locks up the phone). Now you expect folks to stick around and wait for a so called part 2? I dont think so. Boy am I glad that I didn't jump on the band wagon..lol

Man, just support that people are actually trying to help us out by releasing new roms that normally would not be released for our platforms. Every new rom has new issue's, and bug's to work out. There is a fix for everything. I'm sure there will be a release to fix the 911 issue. And yes, it may be a serious issue when you need it, but how often do you really need it?? Just appreciate, and donate. That is the first step to bringing new fixes to the new bug's. I'm sure Helmi_C is aware of this, and is already working on a fix. So just sit back and relax!

I just upgraded my rom from devel.1 to devel.2. while rebooting i noticed a plain white screen that lasted a few seconds longer than normal. After that it went to post screen but freezes. It doesen't even get to the splash screen. i tried flashing it back to the original rom, still the same . I only found posts for splash screens. Thanks for your time.

Would you consider posting the nk.nbf (maybe on the ftp?) so that we could easily alter it with a Sprint ms_.nbf?
I'm getting DSODs at least once a day right now and am in need of trying something different.


OK. Ignore that. I just realized that you aren't using the ms_.nbf and I'd have to take out all the Verizon stuff and put the Sprint stuff back in.
I guess I'll just have to wait for the Kitchen.

With that screen name, and blasting out that much attitude after only being around long enough to have 7 posts?!?

Way to go man - you're sure to really win friends and influence people wherever you go.....

Wow yeah that is rather harsh for a rom with big fat warnings all over it about it being a test rom and all.

No pleasing some people I guess.

I agree. That was completely ungrateful sounding and I don't appreciate it. It took a lot of work to get wm6 working for apache. Helmi did the hard work--we're just refining and polishing.

People know about this bug, it's their choice to continue using WM6. If they feel it's unsafe to have the ROM on their phone they can re-flash it back to an different ROM. It's not like Helmi made it impossible to flash back. What you're implying is that Helmi knew of the issue and decided not to tell the public. get over yourself..

Wow, then go download a different dialer, like the one that dcd released... And don't flame Helmi_c, he's the man that brought you wm6. And last but not least, if you don't want to flash, then don't. I didn't see anyone there with a gun to your head says flash...

And, being that you didn't flash, you don't even know... It does not lock up your phone permanently, it just tries to use the gps chip that our phone doesn't have, and after about 10 seconds, it fails and then it processes and connects the call to 911...

The more I write, the more mad I get. Just go away. It's people like you that don't know anything, think they know it all, and make a bad name for people like us, just trying to update our phones long after the carrier has stopped supporting them.
