Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version - Page 13

Supermanwoot · #1 (**permalink**) 10-22-2007, 11:03 AM

I went back to WM5 using the verizon official update rom w/ 1.43 radio after using this. I have to admit, this WM6 rom was the best I used.

I just want to know one thing. The messaging used in this rom with the email settings and everything works perfectly. Is there some way to get that same system on WM5 because wow that was great, I just reverted to WM5 for speed, which improved a lot for me

ok I have run the 1st one from you and have not had a SINGLE lockup. what have you taken out from the helmi version? there is something in there (missing now) and is not causing my phone to freeze up anymore.

robmayer,

many thanks for the ROM. I've been using V2 for since you released it. I had been using Helmi's original and honestly, didn't really have any issues with it. I don't think I'm using all the features that some of the other posters use as I'm in front of my PC damn near 12 hours a day anyhow. But I like the idea of a smaller footprint.

I'm also running lazyboy's iphone theme and while the theme is cool, WA2 and WAD is a memory hog. I'd had to soft reset a few times (last time it took me 6 times to get it all running again). I think it's probably WA causing the issue, but the theme was done on WA2 and I don't want to hardreset a bunch messing with it to get it working with WA3. I'm working on finding an emulator to mess around with.

As for your ROM, it's been an easy install with no real issues. I did experience the issue with the SD card not showing, but a few times inserting and reinserting seemed to do the trick. Your bootloader worked fine, although I keep an XP machine around just in case. I think I saw a post about using yours with Vista.

I'm also using 1.41 radio and am hesitant to go to 1.43.

Is there any real way to to backup all the customizations before you hardreset and load a new rom?

Thanks again. I'm probably going to go to your latest sprint version here shortly.

Hey Daveedem,

I also used Helmi's original for a while and I never had any real issues either. He has really done some great work. But what I have done is stripped all "junk" away and left only stock and HTC stock apps, as well as added some fixes and enhancements. I know you mentioned WA and WA2, and yes... those programs can be quite the memory hogs sometimes. Chris over at Lakeridge has really done a great job developing and fine tuning Wisbar Advance though. I know WA3 is out now(haven't used it much) and it might be a little lighter on your system. I know, I used to make skins a lot over a lakeridge, but that was back when WA2 was just released. Plus, my system just ran a lot better without all that... so I stopped, espcially when I upgraded to WM6. But anyway, if you can hold off until tonight I will be posting my Sprint WM6 Build 4 HTC Stock version, and it works quite a bit smoother than the Sprint v.3 release. Lastly, I'm not really aware a program to back up all customizations. Closest I could possible give you is PIM Backup, and that just backs up database stuff... contacts, sms, ect. Well, hope I helped a little. Look out for the new build. it will be here when it is posted: http://6700development.googlepages.com/downloads

Also, to those who have posted unanswered questions, I plan to get to them soon.

Rob, I am really looking forward to the Sprint build 4 install tonight and will definitely leave a donation if I stick with this rom. Coming from Kirvin's 3.5 C&S, I am praying for a rock solid and stable wm6 build! thanks

Rob,

Thanks for the update. I'll stand by while you get time to look into the missing VOIP stuff I mentioned yesterday.

Yeah, I am looking into it, and hopefully I can figure something out soon. I'll let you know when I do. I'd like to have VOIP stuff working as well...
