yeah, tf3d works fine, but I am finding I like the sliding panels better, gonna keep playing with them and see if that is still the case after a couple days

Con, what oem packages did you use so you can open up your email and read it? I flashed many times and could view the inbox emails from exchange or gmail but if I went to open them the screen would flicker and then go back to the inbox.

Also for IE8 I found out how to pin the shortcut to the honeycomb but the fix I have breaks the weather widget.

Cheers,

alright, i feel like a complete newb here... not sure what i'm doing wrong, but i can't seem to get a ROM that will boot. each time i get stuck @ the boot screen displaying the 1.32 ROM version...

tried swapping the os.nb.payload from the ones posted in the VGA_xip.zip w/o luck...

can't really focus on it since i'm at work, but i've never had this much trouble w/a kitchen.

any reason for there only being a touchpro os.nb.payload.zip in the \mytools\os.nb.payload folder? should i pull a diamond os.nb.payload from calku's kitchen?

[i used the kitchen from the 1st post, the modified SYS that was posted w/working IE8, and tried swapping the os.nb.payload in the ROM folder, as well as multiple combinations of attempted XIP ports] Is the ROM folder in the posted kitchen from a Pro? TIA!

For the SMS/MMS, try this option. It's something they are working on over at XDA-Developers. This has worked to fix the MMS on all of the ROMS I have flashed since I found it (20+). Pick the one for your carrier at the bottom of the first post. Feel free to comment on any of the pro's and con's relating to the CABs over on that thread.

Remember to ensure that you do not select any Arcsoft option in your BuildOS when you cook your ROM. When this CAB is installed, it writes all your Registry entries including your individual MSID, that's why cooking it into the ROM doesn't work (Unless you enjoy making pointless RegEdits )

Be sure to tell GC14 thanks while you're over there. Here's the link. Let me know if this fixes the email too, because I have a feeling it might.

I dont understand why does not anyone be cool enough to post the cooked rom for everyone to try
you cannot assume the evryday member joe knows how to cook a rom

If you don't know how to cook a ROM, you shouldn't be messing with this. This is way pre-alpha release software. Its not ready for the general public. That's why there isn't a ROM.

The general concept is that WM 6.5 is still in it's development stage. The leaked 6.5 (from what I have read) came from China, therefore, much of the information is written in a language that very few of us understand. The people that are working hard on developing this ROM to a status that can simply be flashed, are working very hard. They are having to go line by line in 7,000 to10,000+ files translating languages, and then having to go back again once everything is translated to tweak the ROM to work on devices that WM 6.5 was not meant for.

I for one, am not terminologically challenged by any means, but at the moment, I still have much to learn and am very thankful to those who are able to get in deep enough to essentially write an OS from scratch...which might actually be easier than all the translation and tweaking going on with 6.5.

Basically, unless you are to the required level to cook ROMs, create OEMs (not convert a CAB to an OEM, but actually sitting down and writing code and understanding the various forms of programing that are involved here), and properly translate from a language that is nearly impossible to correctly translate to English, and understand multi-national programing languages....Long and short, be patient. The Flashable ROM will come. And I can pretty much promise you it will not come from me, but if I see something that I think will help, I am going to put in my two cents. If it works, great. If my ideas don't work, that's great too...just one more way NOT to correct an issue.

It has been said: "I did not faill 10,000 times at making the light bulb, I simplu found 10,000 ways not to make one." It only takes once to get this right, but people are having to find out how not to do it before they release a ROM with their name on it .
