But as soon as I turn it back on, it does the same thing on the next reset. I have a Verizon version, and don't let it install the customizations. I'm puzzled. I feel like it has something to do with the beta version of Phonealarm though. I installed it before on the unified ROM and had the same problem. Not sure if that helps or not, but more feedback to consider.

I like the Metroid stuff too, BTW.

Thanks,

hmmmm, interesting you were able to nail it down to phonealarm. How did the 1.58 final version work?

I dont mind moving off of a beta. I know there is a newer beta out, but there was no LIGHT version so i skipped updating it for the B ROM. Lemme check the pocketmax roadmap and see how soon the 1.6 final will be released and hopefully its soon because 1.3b2 is close to being finalized. I have two issues im trying to sort out, as well as awaiting to see if the bluetooth issue gets resolved shortly (im clueless in that department and my one attempt worked for about an hour *thanks soggy* but then reverted back to its old...nonworking... behaviour).

I would be willing to build you a ROM with the final version of pa 1.58 if your willing to test it a bunch and do resets on your phone. PM me and lemme know and ill post up a link for you if your interested. I cant be releasing unstable ROM's after all! and i need test bodies (especially for issues i cant duplicate myself ><)

thanks!

(POUNDING ON WOOD)

I'm using 1.3u.ß2 and I have never had any Bluetooth problems. Not that I have stated that, I will commence to sticking a fork in my eye, for I feel like I just jinxed myself...

Pocketmax built in the feature to shut off Phone Alarm after so many soft resets. People were having some problems upon boot up with the 1.60 betas. I would have thought it would have been fixed by now though.

Thanks for the heads up blazing, ill roll phonealarm back to 1.58 final until the 1.6 issues are sorted out.

so far only one lock up today, only after int. pocketmusic...hmmm oh well alot faster than the 1.2 and more stable me likey

[hwnstyle21]

what device lock feature is in this rom? I like the ability to use a shortcut in the menu and not the today plugin? Does anyone have the .cab for future reference. I searched and there were 4 available to dl but I don't know which one is the same. Thanks

you configure it in the control panel, you can also map a hardware key to it, or set it to "lock-on-wake" etc.

its a lock program from XDA dev boards, it was recently updated, and the final 1.3u will include v1.2 (currently 1.1)

How about adding UPX'd versions of WM6 Office into your next version?
