Just adding my 2 cents worth.

The best way to "work around" this is to RE-INSTALL the application. It may be built into the ROM, but if you are going to integrate it with other applications, or its acting funny with other programs and it never has before, just install the application on the handset as if its not even built into the ROM. If spb phoneweaver is potentially your issue, reinstall phoneweaver via cab/exe ... and then install the phonesuite. That way all of the registry entries and files are exactly where the "phonesuite" expects them to be. I have done some pretty nasty registry hacks and DLL header modification to get all of this garbage to work out of the windows directory.

Finally I have your ROM & flashed into my device, but seems that BT has a problem....

I couldnt receive a file from another device (I am using nokia N73), the same issue with colonel's......regarding with this issue, only Kirvin's clean & simple works for my device.

i tested with a samsung 900, 920, ppc6700, treo700w & 700p, palm 755p.... all file xfers work fine..... im gonna go with localized issue & not ROM.

I did see that fix, and it works for ringers, reminders, etc.... What it doesn't work for is SMS messages. So is there another regedit to enable vibrate for SMS similar to the one in "Known Issues?"

thats strange, if your using PA go into the profile, under SMS messages, check the box that says "vibrate". Of course this assumes you've re-enabled the vibrate function.

Here is the noob question of the day. As a VZW user I ran the VZMMS cab. I'm stumped on what to do for the following entry. Do I add the "X-VzW-MDN"="Your10digitnumbergoeshere"as a new key or what exactly?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Arcsoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\mm1\WspHeader]
"X-VzW-MDN"="Your10digitnumbergoeshere"

any vz users here... anyone......anyone....bueller.....bueller.....
This was discussed back on the 9.6 thread, dont remember exactly if this is even still neccessary. The long way to check, is flash the stock rom.... check this key... export it.

flash mine back on, dont let the customizations run, run my cab file and import the registry

finally, you can just flash the generic, and allow all of your ext.rom customizations to run, and you dont have to worry about it, as it will work fine that way.

other than that, if a vz user wants to input, i can put more detailed instructions in the readme.txt included with the ROM download.

1. I am sorry, I will clarify a little. I haven't used tasks+ I just use the tasks program of pocket outlook. If you go to programs, tasks, and filter and click "Active Tasks". Then no matter what you sort by it always sorts by alphabetical order.

I would try out tasks+ and see if that suites your needs. I have never used the default task management program, and wayyyyyyy back when i used tasks (now i just use the calender) i used tasks+. Im assuming it worked fine before..... I didnt modify ANY of the outlook/task/calendar default programs from the kitchen so it *may* be a broken feature..... or as seems normal with AKU3.x it may just be working properly..... or put another way.... by design... sorry i cant be of more help, i honestly dont know ><

Works great JB, another fine release! Just thought I would throw props at ya for it. I have used nearly every installment since the beginning and it only seems to get better every time. Keep up the good work buddy!

I always appreciate stuff like this, thanks!

on another note, its difficult making "suite" compromises and the like. For myself, I dont actually install *ANYTHING* anymore. Everything I ever wanted the phone to do.... it does. Its fast, responsive, looks nice, still "feels stock" in that i dont have any crazy o2advance skinning going on, most of the today plugins are clean... and well..... it just works. works right out of the Flash. On a more personal note, i think spb makes horrid software. They end up with a gem every once in a while, but notably, their sh*t sucks. Its overly bloated, not fluid in their functionality, their installs are HUGE and they dont all seem to work right.....well.... unless you drop a small fortune and install ALL of them, but then.... whats really the point?

ahhhhhh i ramble again, been trying to stop that.

Anyways, try the above steps of re-install pw before the phonesuite, and please get back to me. I appreciate the feedback (actually i do haha). im like a ppcgeek forum whore! I NEED THE DRAMA~!!!!!!!

Does anyone else have any issues receiving file using there Bluetooth. I can send files to friends but I can't receive files. Help beaming files takes way to long.

JBabey - I just loaded 1.4 and noticed that when I import my settings for PhoneWeaver, the entire system locks up. Also, runs incredibly slower.

NOTE: I did not install any other programs. First thing I did was import the settings and the the phone went to sh!t...

I have a strange problem. My phone seems to always be data connection mode. And when it is, I cannot make a phone call. I have even been in a situation where my call will drop and when I look at the phone, its in data connection mode. I have Phone Alarm and Weather Panel loaded ... not sure what the problem could be. I am doing one more Hard Reset in hopes that fixes the problem.

just launch IE to open PIE+
PA shouldnt freeze, just enable it under settings for today. I havent had it freeze any phones since i backed it off of the beta. Are you *sure* you hard reset and did NOT allow your customizations to run if you are on Sprint (that causes a ton of f*ed up sh!t....)

your settings file, may (highly likely) hold pointers for file location. The files are now based out of windows dir (obviously). And now, everytime the program needs to do anything, it has to "find" itself.

I know its gonna be a pain in the @ss... but start from scratch. re-create all of your settings, and backup that settings file for in the future.... sorry i forgot to mention that earlier.

ALL Roms (even offical releases) have an issue with data connections blocking the ability to answer the phone. If the unit suspends, but the app needs to check data, it will do so when it wakes when it rings and blocks you from answering. Again this is with ALL roms


I know the weather plugin autoconnects every 4 hours, if the phone is "suspended" then as soon as you wake it up, or a call comes in, it will attempt to connect. You can go into the settings and set it to manual, or uncheck "allow it to make connections"... then it will only update when it detects a connection. Or just set it on manual and update when you want to.

thanks for the positive feedback polar & the continued abuse of your FTP mirror!

ok after soft reset PA not freezing .
Also after starting Explorer ( like u said ) PIe is back Thank You

ok this 1 is wierd the 6700 turns off after tops 20 seconds and I need to hit power button to turn it back on.

And the big question what gps do you use with your 6700. I've looked around and there is a ton of them but I would love one that you use already with this rom so I can buy 1 that is compatable.

the screen shouldnt turn off that quickly, if PA is running i have it default to 1 minute... is it "dimming" after 20 seconds? if so, just go to the profiles tab in PA and scroll to the bottom, set the screen timeout to something higher than 1 minute.

RE: GPS hardware, you may want to get with soggystockings, hes the only person i know of using BT GPS. I dont use it myself cuz i never get lost... i am .... a man after all.... i dont ask for directions, I fire up livesearch.....
