Questions on Programs and WM 6.1 OS.

[gottria]

I have my Vogue up and running with a cooked ROM and I have some questions. First, I'm coming over from the Palm Centro which I found the OS to very easy and user friendly, my wife even figuared it out.

I tried many differant ROMS, cooked, OMJs, Dereks, JDs, and a few others. The volume using my BT headset and Microsoft Voice command audio is very low, not sure if it's my Motorola 375 BT headset or just they way it works. When talking the other person is loud enough it's just the actual voice of the program is very low.

The ringer volume just dosen't seem to be loud enough even when turned up all the way and even tried differant ring tones. Is there a ring boster program?

After cooking my own ROM, I find the pre-made ones, especially the hybrid rom snappier and I might just go with one of thoes.

I used a few WM OS devices including the Dell Axim for 3+ years and just 6 months ago I switched to the Palm OS and I'm finding it very hard to switch back to the WM OS. Yes it's more robust but man the PAlm just flows nicley.

The Microsoft Voice command is known to be messed up with bluetooth to where you won't be able to use it.

There are ways to edit the audiopara files (do a search for those) to be able to boost the volume. I tend to have the phone on vibrate + ring, and I am able to normally hear it just fine... I'd look into making your own ringtones and boosting the volume until it's where you'd like it to be (be careful to not blow out the speaker!)

I am currently using OMJ's 6.1 Rom and it's working wonderfully (except somehow I messed up the sync so now it won't sync with my work computer. I may have to spritebackup to a previous version...)

I <3 WM... the key is to get the right programs. I love quickmenu and I love the Touchpal keyboard. Sprite Backup is also a necessity as well if you're going to be messing with the system a ton.

Good luck!
