for some reason, i cannot send a text to a short code (like google sms), anyone have a clue whats causing this? it worked fine with colone's last rom. i have a spring 6700 btw

Still can't read arabic message
 

I tried this rom, it's great. i used to use saridnour's rom. Only problem is
can't read Arabic sms, I think this is caused by the new sms appz (Palm).
Any body know how to get back to the normal sms appz found in saridnour's rom, i think Arcsoft.

Thankx in Advance

Two problems with the latest release
 

I really like this release for its stability. I have found two issues.
1) Phone alarm will gradually decrease the system volume from its default 80% in the profile to off over the course of one to two hours. It can be corrected by changing to another profile and then changing back to the original one, but two hours later, it is muted again. The previous beta did not do this. I have already tried re-flashing the ROM. I have had to disable phone alarm on my phone. :(
2) Logmein. This is a great free program that allows you to control your desktop from your pocket pc screen. It worked through 9.6. I am not sure if there has been a change in the Internet Explorer app or whether PIE is causing a problem. Is there a way to non-destructively remove PIE from the ROM so that I can troubleshoot this? :|
Thanks,
MG

Re: Two problems with the latest release
 

the frequently asked questions will walk you through removing it.

unsure of arabic characters, ive never localized my phone to another language before.

phonealarm is quickly becoming a pile of sh!t, im going to remove its integration in the next release and just have a custom built cab to install it for those that wish to use it.


what the helll is a shortcode? i need a lot more information than this, what exactly is the error message.

ive seen screenshots of the date AND time up there, but i dont know how to do it, i have an idea, but never cared enough to figure it out, if you know the reg key for it, ill look into it.

download the program and pull out the original skin and put it in the /windows/ directory. optionally go to pocketmax homepage and download the original skin.

9.6 has .NET2 built into it as it was part of the kitchen back then. now you would need to install .NET2 if your using applications that require it.

in regards to removing PIE+ ... there is a section in the FAQ on the first page that will walk you through disabling the program and going back to the original browser. I am also debating removing this application along with PA in the next release, new kitchen... whatever haha.

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

thanks for the links to instructions on the wait screen, ill be making custom ones for each theme here soon. I really like the sonic one, i just gotta go into the BMP and change the white color in the background to transparent. i just found the hex value for transparency so i gotta use reshack and pull em out and rebuild it.

Re: Two problems with the latest release
 

a short code is a way to send a sms message without typing a whole phone number.

no error message, but messages to 2653 (coke for a code under a cap) just don't seem to make it. google updated their shortcode, so that could be why they weren't working.

<edit>
then again, it looks like it still isn't working with the new google shortcode

ohhhhhhh, ill look into it, thanks!

Bluetooth GPS and stereo headsets
 

I just want to report that I've not had any problems using either my Holux M1000 BTGPS device or my Sony HBH-DS970 stereo headphones with the new 1.6 ROM.

I successfully paired both devices and can get GPS navigation through the BT stereo headphones. Also, when listening to mp3's when a call comes in the audio gateway automatically closes and the phone picks up, and when a call ends, the music comes back [though it does not pause the music as it continues to run in the background].

I also figured out what was causing the battery drain issue I posted about previously - I was running xcpuscalar at 624 the entire time and it drained my 2400mah extended battery in about 3 hours!

Also, I've noticed one shell problem - when i put the ppc in landscape mode, the colors are uniform for about 7/8 of the way from left to right with the last 1/8 on the right in a different hue [slightly lighter in shade]. I'll try to take a screencap of this. Anyone else with this problem?

http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=5539105 hmm, can't seem to get the imageshack screencap to show up ...

Re: Bluetooth GPS and stereo headsets
 

to me that looks like its a background designed for portrait only, not for landscape use.

Re: Bluetooth GPS and stereo headsets
 

Ive never seen that before, and i know for a fact that my wallpaper does not do that. Some of the other wallpapers may not have images sized for a 320x wide and will start to repeat at that point, and that may be what your seeing. But the default wallpaper wont do that, i know however that some of the other themes i included dont have the landscape picture so it will repeat at the line you see there.

Re: Bluetooth GPS and stereo headsets
 

The wallpaper I'm using is the Worms3D that came with your 1.6. I guess it's only for portrait mode ...
