BigJ's HYBRID 1.2h ROM - Updated 7-18-07

[Penny]

So far I am loving this rom! I have figured out the little problems I had except this one. Wimdows Media Player is not listed in my programs list or start menu. I have to open the files on my sd card and click a file to open up WMPlayer. How can I correct this?

Thanks for helping a newbie!

Ok, I figured it out. I found it in the Windows folder and sent it to the menu. Worked great but now there are 2. I tried to delete it by going to file send to and then add/delete and it doesn't work. Am I missing a step?

It brings up a page that wants me to put in a code or purchase. I just downloaded this rom yesterday. Are all these programs trial? Can I do it another way?

Hey, I just sent you a PM check it out.

This time though something different happened. When I synch to my pc and get my mail, calendar appointments and so forth it appears the synch works. My appointments appear on the today screen. I cant find the link in the start menu (as was there on previous versions) to be able to launch either program. By the way if I click on the appointment on the today screen the calendar app launches fine so i know it is there somewhere.

Since this rolled off the current page, I want to bump it one time to see if there are any suggestions.
Thanks

i must have missed this one... what exact link is it that you are looking for? i removed the calendar link from the start menu because you can just tap on the screen for it. little confused.

By large reduction in battery life, I'm talking about at least a 3 hour reduction in life. I have ActiveSync set to sync on item arrival with our Exchange server, but I did before as well.

The only application other than ActiveSync which should be making a data connection is the weather plugin which I changed to update every hour and I saw no better battery life.

On a typical day, I pull my phone off the charger at 8am, I might make 5-15 minutes of phone calls all day, about 20 or so txt's, the ActiveSync and bluetooth enabled...that's the extent of my usage. With the old ROM, I was able to get about 12-13 hours of life out of the battery. With this ROM, I'm averaging about 8-9 hours.

Everything else is default in the ROM, no other apps installed. Were there any changes to the BlueTooth stack? Maybe it's killing battery life?

I also notice that overall the phone feels pretty slow and typing a txt or email is horrible. I have to be very deliberate with each letter I type in, pausing between letters to make sure that the input is accepted. With Sar's PR6 ROM that I had on before, it took input almost as fast as I could enter it with only an occasional missed letter. Now I'm getting whole words missing if I type my normal speed.

Any ideas on what could be going on?

Anyone?

I get an alarm reminder but when I hit the reminder button, nothing happen. Normally when I hit the reminder button there would be a pop up of the alarm. Can anyone help?

Thanks

I use linux to teather, sync etc... After this update ?radio flash? The usb product id changes when the internet sharing or wmodem is started and the drivers no longer connect.

Old info / w/o sharing started: ID 0bb4:0b02 High Tech Computer Corp.
New info while *trying to teather: ID 0bb4:0303 High Tech Computer Corp.
I used to use usb-rndis-lite (cvs - synce ) to connect but I couldn't find where debian/etch maps usb vendor/product ids to drivers or any of the described keys around ...

Also wmodem id changed to: ID 045e:0079 Microsoft Corp.
I managed to get the ipaq driver to work via:
rmmod ipaq ; modprobe ipaq vendor=0x045e product=0x0079

Only I never managed to get any response after ATDT#777 but the atz stuff was ok...

In any case no internet here, This is no doubt why it won't work in XP either.

Help? New activesync install for WM6? Should I just flash the radio back? Can I change this stuff in the registry somewhere?

Go BigJ! I would have had to return this thing w/o you!
