did you reenable the leds?
other then that i would probley just reinstall the latest sprint rom, if you dont care for this version. Sprint is guaranted to work to a point any bugs that sprint has are called features of the phone!!!

go into your sounds & notification settings, and set a sound to it, it does not have one by default, you can also install phonealarm and set a sound for SMS there...

+++++

there is no LED issue. Enable them, and they work, and vibrate works THATS ALL THEY EFFECT stop telling everybody that every little problem is because of the LED's.

the threaded SMS program has its own notification sound, all people need to do is set a sound to it.

I know some ppl don;t let the customization take place after the ROM flash, so doe this mean I'm corrupting BigJ's install by allowing mine to run?



... oh and BTW... thanks BigJ... now my wife forbids the phone in the bed at night... apparently I'm playing too many games!

no if your on verizon, you should let your ext.rom cabs run, at least until someone can build me an OEM for them.

and your in good, i found a lot of small, addictive little game "gems" to put into the next revision.

thanks for the feedback!

Sweet.
I'm enjoying your "fun" ROM.

How do I get Voice Command to announce messages? I have the notification enabled, but I do not get an announcement via VC.

Thanks.

Can some one please post (noob style) how to get the stuff thats in the extended rom2 folder(sprint mms, ponealarm with skins, prl 20226) on to the phone? I tried by just coping the cab file for the mms into my device through active sync but it didnt work(after i installed i still had 2 pics in my out box not sent). Text messages are working fine...Thanks

Well if your using activesync, just hit Explore once your phone is done sync.

Click on the top "Windows Mobile Device"

Click on the folder "Extended Rom2"

Sprint ppls Delete all of the "junk" that is in there
Verizon ppls should leave that folder alone and use the SD-Card

Then simply right click and "Copy" what you want to put in there

Go back to "Extended Rom2" and right click and "Paste"

It will prompt you about converting the files, click OK

You will see a progress bar

once finished, let it sit for about 10 seconds

Pull the phone off

Open RESCO file explorer (the normal one wont see the files)

Go into the "Extended_Rom2" Folder

Tap to install the spMMS-Registry.CAB

+++++++++++++

that should do it for ya np, the normal file explorer wont see the files because i set them to "hidden" so ppl dont accidently remove them and forget, do a hard reset and *poof* wheres my MMS???

+++++++++++++

The MSVC bluetooth announcements....

for one, make sure you go into the voicecommand settings and check off "Enable" and click on "Notification" and set it to BlueTooth Hands Free When Available, and uncheck "only during free time" hit ok, the phone will hang for about 4 seconds while MSVC updates itself

now the tricky thing i have noticed is that you need to "trigger" the voice command before any of the new settings work, so hit button 5 (or whatever HW button you set it to) and let it prompt you, say cancel. Now you should have your announcements working through the BT.... to test, you should now be able to hit your BT button and have it prompt you in your headset.

+++++++++++++++++++

I am also having issues with the sound, It WAS alerting me when I had SMS and now its not, i have reset the sound to it and I am awaiting a response from my g/f to verify that it works

Ok. So I deleted the "stuff" in the rom2 folder. I extrecated the files I wanted in the rar to my desktop. I then copied and paste the mms(sprint) in the rom2 to folder. I used resco and tapped on it. It went to install but I got the instalation unsuccesful error message..Any ideas? Thanks agin...Oh I also have a folder in there WMDRM now..That should be deleted as well??
