Apache WM6 Clean, No Junk Version

[Torx]

take your time, dont get burnt out

[Kreigz]

Say, guys, what's the difference between the stock radio and the 1.43?

[philgross]

I love your clean ROM, but I have a potentially dealbreaking problem. I ActiveSync to an exchange server on a domain. But in the server connection dialog, the "domain" field under username and password is grayed out, and I can't enter anything there. I haven't seen this problem with other ROMs. Was there perhaps one registry entry removed too far?

Never mind. One of a) deleting and recreating the server entry, or b) explicitly putting https:// before the server address, fixed the problem

Correction: the problem was that I was not looking carefully at my instructions, and put an '@' in my username, instead of the WM6-compatible underscore (this is all for connecting to my mail2web.com account). As soon as an @ appears in a username, WM6 grays out the domain field...

do you have the kitchen program I would like to give a shot and make my own Verizon: wm6

[Josh_131]

ok so I have a quick possibly noob question.
I just put on the WM6 Clean Ver. 3 on my 6700 for sprint.

Will this change my situation with tethering? I used to be able to tether for free with WM5.

With WM6 does this change? Also how does internet sharing work? does that charge?

[robmayer]

On my pda, so this may be brief.

Rickytr23,

I am currently not using any sort of kitchen to make my roms, but I saw that verizonguy just released one. You should go check it out, its under HTC APACHE, UPGRADES, and it should be near the top.

Josh_131,

Your tethering will be free just as it was in WM5, and the Internet Sharing app makes it easier than ever.

greetings from Venezuela...

Actually v.3 is going to be great for you. Basically, I'm going to strip out everything and leave only stock, and I mean stock ONLY. I have a reason behind this, and that would be because it just seems as though 3rd party apps built into the rom just cause problems, especially when trying to upgrade them. So I am junking all the junk and v.3 is going to be 100% clean! Also, the new 1.43 radio is Verizon only To be honest, I have been having many problems with it to, and definately have not seen any noticeable improvements either. But anyway, thanks for the compliments on my work, I really appreciate it.

Thanks Torx, I have been very thankful for your testing since practically day 1.

I loaded the Sprint V3 and so far very good. One issue I came across though. If I try to download a cab file off the internet with PIE it doesn't prompt to save it, it just opens it in the browser like it thought it was an html page, but obviously you get garbage. Sonds like the MIME types are missing. Perhaps in the reg cleanups? I haven't tried other file types yet.

Thanks again.

Actually, i have noticed this issue with WM5 too. PIE just has an issue with some sites, and causes problems like that. Try downloading a .cab file from a different site and see what happens, then let me know.

Wow, It's nice hear from people like you once in a while! Many thanks to you for realizing the hard work I have put into these releases, and the work being put into future releases as well.

Yes and no. Most Windows Mobile 5 apps will function just fine. But once in a while you will come across a rouge app that will just refuse to work correctly in an OS it was not intended for. I'd say go for it, I have had no incompatibility problems with any of my WM5 apps in WM6.

The only significant nit I have is that SOTI Pocket Controller doesn't like this ROM. It takes me two times to connect every time now. Always used to connect first time every time. There could be settings I can alter on either the desktop or the PPC to fix this. I haven't looked yet.

I will upgrade to v3 next week unless there's a v4 by then. Right now I want to stick with v2 for a while longer.

Thanks for all the hard work, and I will certainly contribute!

I am really going to try putting the new HTC Home into the next version or the one after that. I might even be able to cook up something custom for you on the side if I have the time, if you wanted HTC Home completely gone. Also, I'm not to familiar with Pocket Controller. It may just be a general WM6 incompatibility issue. Maybe you could try other versions, like Helmi's and see if it produces similar results. lastly, I'm trying to get v.4 out as soon as possible. It may or may no be available by the time you are ready to upgrade again. We'll see though...

There are many other 3rd party phone dialers out there if you google for them. But I did purposely leave this dialer in my ROM because a lot of people like it and I honestly find it to be redundant to have a talk button on the screen, and one on the hardware button.

I have actually completely removed the HTC Task manager. I found it to be a big problem. I like to have Windows manage my programs for me, and I use a task manager only to list open programs, not to close them by hitting the x button. If you do lean more towards using a task manager, I prefer pBar, it is an excellent lightweight piece of software.

Really?? I actually just moved here from Grosse Pointe about 2 months ago. I'm at 12 and Dequindre. i guess this world is kinda small. That's cool to know though. Where do you work at? That is, if you don't mind telling.

Yep, RAPI.dll is an activesync component. Try reinstalling... which I think later in the thread you said you did. I'm really glad you enjoy the ROM though!

I think WM6 is a huge improvement of WM5. You should really go for it. As far as ram goes, you will have about the same: 36mb storage and 30mb of ram.

I will report again later, but everything seems to be functioning just fine.

I hope it was the Ultimate Search Tool. But of course if it wasn't, let me know and I'll look into it.

Honestly, I have noticed absolutely no difference. I have actually been dropping more calls now! Go ahead and try it if you like, but I recommend you just stick with stock.

So you have it figured out now? I hope so... if you have any other questions though, feel free to let me know.

Any possibliity of hosting the files somewhere besides RapidShare? Looks like I've hit my free downloads limit.....
