Welp, I can't very well test MMS (Picture mail) until I can actually view my pictures. Can you view them?

Am I to believe no one else has had this problem??

Works fine for me. What seems to be the problem?

Any ideas?

I was able to reflash my device in Vista, but it was hairy, scary and as close as I come to panicking about a computer problem. I had the same problem as you. Went into bootloader, installer refused to connect, couldn't get out of bootloader, the Exit Bootloader program in the Tools folder didn't work (which I'd used before to save my bacon in XP).

So I used WinRAR to extract the official 2.0 installer to a folder, copied the nk.nbf file to that folder and ran UT Starcomm's upgrader: \APA_SPCS_20600_303_12700_WWE_Ship\RUU_TOOLS\Apach e\WWE\ROMUpgradeUt.exe

This seems to be properly digitally signed to run under Vista and the flash went normally after that.

You know what. I must be high. It's working now. Man I feel like an idiot.

It was locking up the PPC. Similar to the issues reported with a few of the 3.3 AKUs. Anyway. It's working now.

Jeff, I'd like to sincerely thank you for all your hard work on this ROM. I have never been happier with my XV6700. I had actually considered moving to a Treo, but thanks to you, I'm a 6700 guy for a while longer.

Thanks again!

I was having trouble with my custom build, so I actually flashed the C&S Sprint version myself and even though I have stuff like eReader and Pocket Player in memory now I still have over 17MB free and damn, this *is* fast. I see why everyone likes it so much.

So you're all welcome, I'm with you now, and also a happy 6700 user!

(for a couple more weeks, at least...)

It's not so much the speed that has me hooked, it's the stability. I've had to soft reboot maybe 6 times since I installed the ROM. Under the old official AKU, I would often soft reboot that many times in a day.

I've always said that the 6700 was great- when it worked.

Now it works.

The stability is a direct function of what I removed. The whole idea behind this ROM was to bring the ideas behind "the Zen of Palm" to Windows Mobile. Simple is good.

Anyone have the Kitchen for the C&S Sprint ROM? I'd like to apply the BT fixes but want to do it to the Sprint version, not the generic one.

Also, I lost my vibrate when I flashed this ROM. That was yesterday. While typing the two sentences above I got a TM and my phone vibrated. WEIRD!
