Saridnours’ AKU 3.5+ Rom. Current 3/28 v3.5pr6

[cheeb]

anyway of implementing windows live into the rom? (which is a great rom!)...or is there a cab out there i could install??

[saridnour]

I flashed my phone back to PR6 last night and gave it a good run through soft resetting about 200 times without having any lockups. I tried soft resetting locked and unlocked also while tapping the screen (while resetting as it seemed to lock more with screen tap activity in pr5).
I also tried a few hard resets in between as well just to have it re-initalize. Most of the testing was done without any extended rom being loaded, but in the last few (30 or so) I loaded the full stock sprint extended without soft locks (Did notice that the today would not alwyas load correctly not showiny the two sprint today apps on occasion, again this was only after loading the stock rom which is bad anyway as it overwirites newer system files). During the resets I loaded apps (mainly bubble breaker as this was also indicated as an issue) and had no problem getting it to load. I did not dive into any of BB's menus but did load the app a number of times after soft and hard resets.
The only thing I can say on the issues is that all hardware must not be created equal or its 3rd party. I will ask any of you out there that have had and issue with soft locks or BB not loading, to try this themselves .
1- Remove your SD card.
2- Hard reset,
3- Download and reload the latest PR6.
4- Hard reset and go through welcome skipping all.
5- soft reset instead of running the extended rom.
6 -Now soft reset as many times as you can with the device locked and unlocked. Try tapping the screen during resets and try loading bubblebreaker from time to time and see if you can repro a lock or the issue with BB not loading.
I am at a loss as to why this is not working for some of you unless it is hardware related or a 3rd party app.



tneck22: I am not usre on the first issue since it is not working on any 3.5 roms. On the alarms, check sonds and notifications as this should allow you to turn the notifications on and off. I have re-ocuring events from work that I have not had any issue with. It could be a 3rd part app the made a chnage possibly as well. SOme will not revert changes when removed as well so you may need to do a hard reset and check that way as well if its not in Sounds and notifications.

SportbikeRiderXX: You have to enable Cleartype in IE as well as from the GUI. Same with landscape view. I did not change the font so unless you had an app do it, I can not see what else would have changed unless it is loading one of the fonts that was included with MS reader.

Thanks. I'll try hard resetting again tonight. I did have issues like my VC exe not working, soft reset lockups, phone app hanging, etc. on PR5 until I did several hard resets in a row - which did finally make everything more stable. I'll try this with PR6.

My start up folder:

_cusTSKTEMP (don't know what this is)
ClearTemp Startup
InHand (just installed this afternoon and it's pretty lame, will remove)
poutlook
Shortcut to VoiceCommand
wisbarLite

Any idea what the first one is?

But that now leaves you without a battery feature or screen rotate as I mentioned before.

the whole point of wisbar is to have a task manager and have applications actually close (and not just minimize) when you click on the x in the top right.

you can disable wisbar or just press the hardware ok button to minimize any application.

Is anyone having a problem sorting their tasks in pocket outlook? When ever I try to sort my tasks it always sorts by alphabet regardless of what I choose.

Any help would be appreciated, I use these very religiously!

I think you misunderstood - however. It wasn't just a matter of applications initially closing - that could be adjusted in the program. Other programs however, like XCPUScalar had apparent difficulties with Wisbar. Like I described, the full version of XCPUScalar would actually close out completely when hitting the "ok" button. So I couldn't change my PPC speed. It seemed like a nice ap, but I didn't want the bugs I and others found - plus the small memory hit.

mn3kgtvr4: "_cusTSKTEMP" not sure what that is. Could be an installed aps "run once" that may not have been removed..? Is there a link in \windows dir for it?

PolloLoco: Wisbar and xcpuscalar work just fine together as I run wisbar lite all the time and ocasionally use xcpuscalar. Try them after a hard reset without loading any other apps and see if you can open and close xcpuscalar. I have the values set in the reg for my preffered settings one of which was start minimized if I am not mistaken. It should go right to the system servie area at start (did you turn the service app area off?).

First off i would like to say thanks saridnour for a great rom, i am new to the 6700 and flashing rom, but this rom is so much faster then the stock rom. but one problem i have ran into is that cleartemp express doesn't open, i don't know why that is but if someone could help me much help would be appreciated

[saridnour]

kr4zy10: Cleartemp express just clears the temp and does not open anything. Look under programs\system for "clear temp" as this will allow you to make changes to the files it clears, etc.

Not sure if this has been answered before, but how do you force the phone into roaming, as I no longer have a Roaming settings option under the Phone app.
