results after upgrading to wm5 - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

hi all, well i finally had the courage to upgrade to wm5, i am overall really glad i did it however there are some issues i figured u might help me with.
1. i cant seem to find the device info (the one that shows the radio version ect...)
2.) i heard that wm5 comes with microsoft voice command, however i cant find it either.
3.) when i connect to the gprs i have to softreset to shut it off i was wondering if there is another way to shut it off without reseting.
thanks all

1. You need to see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=27614 and the file you are looking for is ba_wm5_fix_v1.rar. This adds Device Info to your control panel as well as other apps like the ability to turn down your screen brightness, etc and some reg fixes to help speed up the little beast. There are some other files there too like a patch to get the camera working.
2. You heard wrong :roll:
3. Afraid I cant help you with as im having problems atm just getting my GPRS to connect, let alone disconnect. But this I can wait for since I have wireless access at home and at work.
Hope i've been some kinda help.
EDIT:
3. Got my GPRS working and I can disconnect be pressing and holding the call disconnect button for a few seconds.

great thanks a lot much faster and all the errors seem to be solved cheers!

Did you set up GPRS for O2 ? I'm getting the error "UNKNOWN APPLICATION" when it tries to connect for me. Is that what you had?
Thanks

Now if we could only figure out that damn b/t problem.....LOL

[WM2005] Wifi Resume Fix!

Ok guys, I believe I've found the regkey to fix all the dropping wifi issues within WM2005. This has been tried and tested on my Blue Angel SX66 Cingular with the hack listed in the wiki to get up to WM2005. Anyways, to the patch, unfortunately I don't know how to make cab's so follow along. Get yourself a registry editor (i.e. TRE) and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\"Your Adapter Name. Mine had 2 keys, tiacxwln and tiacxwln1, tiacxwln1 was the ticket for me" Within the Parms folder you'll find a DWORD value named ResetOnResume which should be set to '1' change that value to '0' and hit ok in the bottom left corner. Give your BA a soft reset and all should be good. I haven't tested this for side effects, but it now reconnects to wifi on resume without a hitch. Please post results back here, I hope I am not jumping the gun!
TIP: To find your adapter name go into Settings>Connections>Network Cards>Network Adapters and look for "xxxxxxx Compatible Wireless Ethernet" again, mine was called 'tiacxwln Compatible Wireless Ethernet'.
Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!!!!
This has been my number one gripe with WM5, everything else as just been small annoyances. But this one... I use WiFi a lot, actually almost every time I turn he thing on. I even got WiFi in my car! So thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!
Oh, do I have to say that it really works? :lol: Qtek 9090 btw.
You who try this, don't forget to turn off the unit for 15 seconds before you do the soft reset, this flushes the registry.
This also appears to work on WM2003, at least with my SX66 running the current revs from the SX66 Standardization Project.
WOW ... its perfect ..... you're realy MAN !!! thx thx thx.....
I've updated BA_WM5_FIX.CAB so that it sets this registry value:
ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Blueangel/wm5_test/BA_WM5_FIX.CAB
with this registry setting wifi on my BA will not stay off. anyone else getting this?
Yes, I see the same thing. Now suspending the unit will turn on wifi on resume. So is that a problem for those who worry about battery life? Probably. Do I care? Nope! But then I'm in my own home around 90 % of the time, within reach of the charger. No, I'm not a slacker, I actually run a business and work 8-10 hour days, but I have my office at home!
Sorry guys I don't understand what's happening. What's going on with the wifi?
brn2prgrm: On WM5, if you turn Wifi on, switch the device off, then back on, Wifi does not resume. This action was default on WM2003SE. The registry key that makes Wifi resume by itself when you turn the device back on was found, and then integrated in the WM5 patches CAB. That's basically all
Eh...it was he who found that key! What he's wondering about is why it isn't possible to make it stay off when you have enabled this key, even if WiFi is off when you suspend, it will turn on when you turn on the PPC again, which it didn't do in WM2003. It was restored to last state, on or off.
Another thing: Has anybody tried this hack with the wireless control app from the Universal that was posted here a while ago, to see if it stays off then?

I think there is a TYPO in the cab file.
I found the reg setting as tiacwln1
Shouldn't this be tiacxwln1 ????
yes, it is a typo.
I've removed the mistyped key from BA_WM5_FIX.CAB and made a BA_WIFI_FIX.CAB which sets the correct registry value. They are in the same dir on FTP
I don't understand the wifi thing:
I get some connections from my neighbours,but my own linksys won't connect?
What do I have to do to connect my MDA to my linksys router??
since I upgraded to WM5 I can't get my wifi to operate 100% of the time--for example, when I connect to wifi--the signal is locked then I try to send/receive my email and then my SX66 tries to connect via GPRS--do I have a setting that's incorrect? or is it because of this thread which is now patched?? HELP--I use my wifi a lot and lately I can't TIA!!

I'm waiting for a patch that does exactly what you thought off, restores its last stage. Not sure hwo long would it take to come out with it.
Anyway, I do not find it a hassle to Turn On Wifi once again instead of it swtiching on by itself upon power up..... I use wifi a lot too though, but haven't found a prob with it.
how about a registry patch that fixes that bluetooth auto turn off annoyance?
O2 XDA IIs (wifi)
Hi , I have recently upgraded my 02 xda IIs to WM5 ,
after applying the patch , wifi worked for a while , then now when i try wifi again, i get this error.

voice command 1.6's BT responsiveness

I'm sorry if this has already been posted somewhere but I couldn't find anything on it. I finally got around to installing this on my MDA using it with the SonyEricsson's SBH-662 (or something like that). The original Voice Commander responds rather quickly but with the VC 1.6, I have to press that button on my BT headset 6 times just to get the voice prompt. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
nxZEN 5500 and MS Voice 1.6
My MS V works near flawless. I hold the button for about a second and I hear the beep in my earpiece. Recognition and response greatly improved.
You DID install to the device and not you storage card, right?

I have to agree VC works very well even better than version 1.5. From what i have heard you can now install to the storage card but perhaps we are seeing the results of doing so. When I first read the title to this thread I said to myself hmmmm. I do think that this version is just a little slower than the previous one but it may just be me anyway overall I'm quite happy with the way it works and think i will most likely buy a copy for my wife's SDA she keeps asking for it.
Kirby
This is what I'm experiencing:
the MDA goes turns off (screen is off). I press the BT button on my headset to activate VC and the MDA turns on. the problem is that it doesn't get out of the My Info screen. If I get out of that screen, I'm alright.
Wordaround:
1: go to Start->Settings->Owner Information
2. proceed to Options tab.
3. Untick "Identification information" under "When the device is turned on, display:"
I guess no one has that ticked.
PS: This is also true if you have your device pswd protected. You will have to press the BT button again, after you have entered your password.

I don't want to sound harsh here, but this has to be said in the most realistic form possible...
READ THE MANUAL!!!!
But since someone else will probably ask the same question a million times i'll copy and paste the information from the manual for you...
The Voice Command Button doesn't work when the password screen is displayed - The password screen blocks the Voice Command Button to avoid other people from placing phone calls while your device is locked. To enable, uncheck the 'Password Protected' option. Note some organizations prevent this override from working due to increased corporate security measures.

Honestly in the future read the manual it will make you look wiser and make people like me less upset.
I did get a hold of the manual after the post and realized that check box. However, that tick does not help by pass the "My Info" screen. I still have that problem. Hence, my workaround.

If your workaround fixes it then it can serve as a resource for people when the manual isn't working...
I recommended the manual simply because i had the problem when i first installed VC 1.6 and after ticking the checkbox, as mentioned in the manual, the problem was solved for me.
My specs are as follows...
T-Mobile MDA (USA)
Official T-Mobile 2.26 ROM
Plantronics Discovery 340 BT headset
I have no problems with BT and VC 1.6.... I haven't changed my owner info or my password protection. The headset wakes my phone from standby and is ready to go when i press the button on the headset.
frazell:
you're a freaking moron. I said what I said in the followup because it's supposed to help you if the program isn't doing what it's supposed to do. I don't know where you've been but this happens in the software industry. The manual says one thing and the software does something else. As a software developer, this i DO know.
Here are MY specs:
MDA
Offical Tmo's 2.26 /w radio 2.47 <-- that might be the culprit
opmap
SE HBH-662
BTW, the manual ALWAYS works (unless you have problems opening up doc files or ur doc file is corrupted). It's the freaking program that doesn't work according to what the manual says.
25 years in the world of IT/software R&D have taught me that often times the developers and the people doing the documentation sometimes don't communicate very well.

Has anyone experienced this kind of Radio Problem?

Hello,
I've been a BlueAngel (SX66-Cingular Variant) user since a long time. It'd been working great. I re-flashed the original rom several times with the new BA updates/ roms from XDA's Ftp site and they all worked like charm.
ISSUE:
--------
Lately (since a month), I am experiencing some issues with it. It seems to be always searching for Network/ Service, all the time. An ongoing call will get disconnected. And very frequently i'll see a NO SERVICE notification. The NETWORK INDICATOR in the task bar will go to a High Strength and then Searching status. It is usually taking more than 30 mins to search the operator for me to make/ recieve any call. People trying to reach me inform me that my phone is Not Reacheable.
I've reflashed it to different BA ROM combinations but it didn't help.
I dont want to assume that it is a Hardware failure as i didnt do anything which can cause a damage to the instrument.
>>>>>>>>>>>>
What all can i try? What is the BEST SUITED ROM for this Device?
<<<<<<<<<<<<<
>>>>> ONE MORE QUERY :-
My Blueangel Back Cover Shows that this device is PH20B, but the ROM indicates that it is a PH20B1 Device. (This device is actually without a camera) Why do i see a difference here?
>>> USERS in INDIA or NCR Region: Is there any authorised/ recommended place i can get this device serviced?
Any help or suggestion is very much appreciated. Thank you all in advance.

My SX66 is now Dead!! Pls. Help!
Desperate to fix this problem, i pulled the battery to power drain the BlueAngel. I even went a step ahead and shorted all the power connectors (which connect to battery) of the device with help of a metal needle. I placed the battery back and now the set is dead!!
I just can't believe this. How can i get this device powered on now??
Thank you all for help in advance!
-Harry
Try to plug into the power supply and see if it work. Let the phone charge for a while if it doesnt power up when u plug in. Try this and see if it work.
As for the "phone keep searching for operator" problem, I have the same problem too. Whenever I go underground and the phone lost signal, it will take forever to recover the signal. What you can do is to go to "Setting"->"Phone"->"Network" tab and select "Find Network" and the signal should recover.. Note to set the "Network selection" to automatic. I had encountered problem when I set it to manual where the phone will show good signal but call cannot come in.
hope this help...

Thanks a million Bioskoh! Your power supply suggestion got this device back to life.
I am still facing the network/ radio issue with this device. I already have Automatic set under the network selection settings. I am facing this issue everywhere... Even where the signal should be very strong. I dont know what else to do . Any other suggestion/s are welcome..
Thank you again! Viva la XDA-developers.

Any other suggestions please....
I have installed Radio 1.13.10 with 1.42 (T-Mob/NL), but this issue still persists. This device has become more slower and lazy in the past few months.
I am still mad at the phone function of this device. Once half of the battery is consumed, It wont even allow me to make/ recieve any call.
Someone on this forum please help. Is there any New ROM update from Siemens (>1.33 Rom) please?
Also friends, how is the stability of WM 2k5 on this device? Would you recommend installing it just to see if it fixes this issue?
One Last Question: What is the BEST ROM combination for this device? Also any customized Ext ROM with all the patches/ fixes included. Links to the location are greatly appreciated.
Thank you all again for your time and help!
-Harry
For WM03 on SX66, you can use the ROM from the SX66 Standardization Project website. Link: http://home.comcast.net/~sx66-blueangel/
As for WM05, I am using the Helmi WM05 AKU3.5 Ver1.4 ROM. It is quite stable. You can go to this website for detail: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Helmi
You will need to have some patience and follow the upgrade procedure to make everything work good. Remember to read/search the forum for answers.
Have fun flashing your ROM!

cryptocoder, a number of us have similar issues, but so far it has been restricted to Orange UK users.
Do you find that when you attempt to make an outgoing call that you get three short beeps at least 50% of the time? And that incoming calls either go to answerphone after a delay, or alternatively they fail with a number out-of-service tone?
Finally, do you have issues sending txt messages soon after a failed call. I get the message "The phone is not ready, please try again in 15 sec".

TomTom Sound Issue

Question -- I have TomTom on my Tilt ... it installs fine, and works fine ... however each time I start it up the sound is turned off .. .and I have to touch the screen, turn on the sound twice before the change in settings "sticks" and I get the voice giving me directions.
Any thoughts how I can fix this?
Mine does the exact same thing, otherwise it works perfectly. Running XDA Live 1.1 ROM...
That is the default function. You must always activate the sound after starting.

hate to tell you guys, but it's not the default. The sound is on when I fire up Tom Tom on my Tilt, I've never had any issue nor had to go into settings to turn it on before. Are you guys using a ROM other then the original one?
Default off on both my HK Kaiser & my AT&T Tilt. Don't know what to tell you.
Solution that works for me!
I have found that all I have to do is to rotate the volume wheel on the side of my Tilt and the sound gets turned on without having to go through the preferences menu. It will repeat the last direction when you do this but it doesn't bother me too much and it lets me know that the sound is enabled.
The same issues occur with the previous version 6.03
And on other PPCs as well (eg IPAQ hw6910).
But it does not happen always, so I deduce it's related to conflicts with other softwares.
And it certainly isn't a feature, as a previous poster suggested.
TT as a default always starts with sound ON.

I didn't have this problem until about 30 minutes ago, I received the Carcomm Cradle I ordered for the car, installed it, tried out TomTom and now I have the same problem as you.
Are any of you using a Carcomm Cradle?
The only other thing I changed before the sound problem is I bought a "Veripart 3-in-1 Converter HTC ExtUSB" so I can charge the PDA and listen to music using the 3,5 mm jack port.
I also have exactly the same problem, and solve it with the volume wheel. I also had this problem on my Hermes.
TomTom 'fixes'
FWIW, not sure why, but the volume wheel never solves my problem in a predictable fashion, so I've went and found the following apps that make things easier:
TomTom Menu Builder -- Change the location of where the 'Turn on sound' or any button shows up in the menu for faster access. e.g., I've placed my 'Turn on sound' button on page 1 with 'Navigate to' and 'exit application'. The menu also allows you to enable all sorts of 'hidden' menus, with the most useful being the voice preferences menu, which lets you choose how verbose the speaker is. Alternatively, if you're not up to installing the menu builder, you could download my TomTom menu (see attached). Either way, place TomTom.mnu in \TomTom\SdkRegistry.
TomTom Starter -- Make your phone volume max and turn off all notification popups before starting TomTom. Reverses volume and notification changes after exiting TomTom. Great for when you forget that your phone is on vibrate or at a low sound setting.
BTW, its not the ROM that is the problem, it most likely has to do with TomTom. I'm using 6.03, non-taster edition.
The sound will be muted when you start TomTom with a data connection active. If you disconnect your data connection (G, 3G or H) before starting TomTom the sound should be on.....

Thanks michi123, I seem to recall reading about this in another thread. However, that's still yet another application (comm manager) and button I need to press before starting TomTom.
It's much easier for me to use the two applications I've included, as I'll need to go into the menu anyway to enter my navigation point and should I forget to turn off vibrate or crank up my volume, TomTomStarter fixes that for me...

Excellent! That works. And unless you have changed the functionality of your end button (like in the xda ROM) it is pretty quick to hold down the red end button (to close all data connections) before opening TomTom.
But it's not very effective when you're using a converged device, right?
I mean, would you turn off your phone every time you'd want to load TT, and then have to remember to turn it back on (while still inside TT)?

All holding down the end key does is cancel all active data connections .. it does not "turn off" the phone (unless you happen to be on a call). So yes, if you want to tun TT when you are on the phone, this solution will not work, but if you want to run TT when you are not actively speaking, holding down the end key first solves the sound problem. Then, you can still make and receive calls and, for that matter, you can still use data programs too, all with TT running.
Very useful thread, I've just updated mine and my G/Fs TyTns, we both have exactly the same ROM and RADIO, hers starts with Volume on, Mine starts with Volume off, the only real difference is that we're on different service providers, we both have MS ActiveSync running against our different corporate Exchange servers, and I have reduced my connectivity to GPRS to save battery. Will give the Tweaker app a go and see what happens. Sh
Alex. What version of tomtom are you running. I cannot get the menu file to work with my version 6.032(8351) no taster version.
Hi guys,
I just wanted to post on here cos I noticed some information that I didn’t agree with and also I have tested what others have said and it works so I thought I would say thankyou in one breath and bugger in another.
I have tested TomTom 6.031 SDK version on a HTC TyTN2, Glofiish, HP614c, HTC p3300 and a HTC Cruise and all of them start TomTom with the sound muted if they have a data connection active!
Sound is not muted at start-up if there is no data connection. This is great to know as I was baffled by it all but it also causes me a pain in that I need the data connection all the time, so I think its a mistake if TomTom themselves presume otherwise.
I have a XDA Orbit 2 on order but I am guessing it will be the same with that. I dont remember this issue with Windows Mobile 5, but it happens for sure on 6.
Also I have an issue with the 6.031 SDK and the unmute function call doesn’t appear to work!
Ho hum... so many devices with the same issue....
Ram
I have to admit I made a slight error in my statement above, I hadn’t tried it on the HTC p3300 and got the same result, it would appear that the HTC p3300 is the only device out of the many I have tried that doesn’t switch to silent when loading TomTom while a data connection is active.
I am trying to work out why this is as I am running the same software installation on all the devices.

Major!! Wifi Will Not Turn On!!

I've tried it all!! The wifi will not turn on at all. In the settings tab and under connection, the comm manager wifi switch pressed will cause the wait cursor to come up, but after the process it wont turn to on. Can anyone please help me.
how do u know its not on? cant detect wifi?
Is the Wifi antenna icon comes up on the top menu ?

Not Sure What you mean.
1. Go to comm manager
2. Hit WiFI and the wait icon starts (should be a quick spin and its on, but the icon goes on for a while).
3. Switch instead of turning green animates back to off.
I have not loaded anything other then SKtools that could change the registry or system in anyway (no other tweaks except Schapp's)
I looked all over this forum and found tricks for other HTC phones, tried one or two, but they are made for other phones. I looked over the GPS and in Google Earth disabled it. I have also done a hard reset. I also get a device.exe error.
Please somebody help us. My diamond's wi-fi doesn't work. I try a lot of tfink. I try a lot of time hard reset. And several times upgrade diffrent roms. Now i use 1.37.401 europa rom. But my diamond's wi-fi still not work.

Mines the same. Done a soft reset - nothing. Done a hard reset and all seems fine for the mo.
Got my phone from orange.
hard reset u mean erase all and start like new?
with this hard reset.. the same problem... any other option??

I have the same problem with german htc touch diamond and several roms.
I think the hardware has an error. Bull**** !!!
Has anyone an other idea?
I had this issue with my S710, if you turned the wifi on it would flip to on for a second before going back to off - only happened if I has it hooked up to a pc via usb. Not sure if its the same with the diamond?
I couldn't enable Wifi properly on my last phone despite hard and soft resets. After trying lots of times, I gave up and sent the phone back to Orange. I currently have a Diamond Touch that has no problems enabling, but can't connect to my router using WPA2.
I think I have the solution for wifi / wlan problems on diamond
Over one week i try to start my wifi (100 hardresets, 5 new ROMs) and then i believe it is an hardware error.
Under ...\connection\wifi\ was not the tab "wireless", only the tab "networkcards"
My last try was the solution:
1. In my HTC Kaiser is the same wifi-hardware
2. I export the registrykey "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TNETW12511" from the kaiser to a .reg-file
3. I delete this registrykey on the diamond and import the .reg-file from the kaiser
4. Before I can start wifi i make about 5 softresets and try to start
5. But the start was only successful when I make first a connection to the pc with ActiveSync and then a softreset
This is my solution, please answer me when it works for you too
One problem is still there: after an usb connection wifi will not turn on. I must make a softreset but thats no problem for me.
Its the same what "huwwatkins" describe at #13 with the S710

Not Sure What you mean.
1. Go to comm manager
2. Hit WiFI and the wait icon starts (should be a quick spin and its on, but the icon goes on for a while).
3. Switch instead of turning green animates back to off.
I have not loaded anything other then SKtools that could change the registry or system in anyway (no other tweaks except Schapp's)
I looked all over this forum and found tricks for other HTC phones, tried one or two, but they are made for other phones. I looked over the GPS and in Google Earth disabled it. I have also done a hard reset. I also get a device.exe error.

I have heard of this... The wifi does not go on but the bluetooth does. I was told it was a bad chip.
same here, called retailer today. told me HTC is working on a fix. will be available in about two weeks. let ya know
Same problem here..
I have the same problem. Tried everything - no luck. Thinking of turning it in for repair - should I flash the original SPL/ROM for warranty reasons or can they tell it's been flashed anyway ?
wifi working fine on mine
i have no problems at all

I had this issue with my S710, if you turned the wifi on it would flip to on for a second before going back to off - only happened if I has it hooked up to a pc via usb. Not sure if its the same with the diamond?
