Hi everyone I'm new with WM, before I had only Symbian. I have ATT Tilt which I've unlocked and updated to Kaiser firmware, with help of this forum. Before Skype worked perfect for me, I had WM6 pro, but now when I've upgraded to WM6.1 it wont work, during loading message appears: Failed to load file. I've tried to reinstall it for few times... no help. Maybe somebody knows any solution for that problem. Thanks.

Seriously, does ANYONE read anything around here before they jump into a new ROM? Would you jump into a pool BEFORE looking to see if any water was in it? How many threads have people already posted and said "NOT ALL APPLICATIONS ARE WORKING ON 6.1" Start reading, read some more, THEN post a relevant question.

Downgrade back to WM6? Though I think I read somewhere that once you upgrade, you can't go back. There was a thread where people were finding problems with their phones after they went back to 6 that going back to 6.1 again didn't solve.
I remember when Vista first came out and the reports of programs failing left, right and centre. That's one of the main reasons I'm not bothering to upgrade until the compatability issues are resolved...
Is there any alternative program, that is also works with Skype network? I know Fring, but it's not so good. Maybe there are others?

Hi everyone! great info on this site. been lookin around for a few hours now. Ive had my Qtek9090 for almost a year now. Trying to get a grip on this whole UPGRADING the ROMs idea. which brings me to my question.
I am a firm beliver of the whole "if it aint broke, dont fix it" saying... however i would like to upgrade my PDA for legitament reasons...
I am not interested in going to MOBILE 5. from what i have gathered it has conflicts with TOMTOM NAV 5 (which i use everyday) and other conflicts that convince me otherwise.
However, my PDA does hang randomly causing me to "soft reset" and sometimes when i call people they cannot hear me but i can hear them..
I am just curious as to which upgrades specifically i need to rid of said problems.. (If the upgrades fix other "bugs" that doesnt hurt either.. but i dont want to open the door to more problems..)
Thanks in advance everyone.
P.S. - how do i get my profile to allow me to choose qtek9090 and rom dates from the drop down boxes? i added the correct info to signature box, due to the fact that i could not add it initally.
I have to say that running TomTom5 on WM5 i've had no problems since TomTom released a 5.2 patch.
The reason I went for WM5 was very simular to the problems you are having, random lockups and sometimes if I answered a call I could hear someone but they couldnt hear me. Since going to WM5 I haven't had any problems with these two issues. The only thing that WM5 has that bugs me is the slow keyboard, which a simple overclocking can fix (which Blue Angels are designed to do)
Do you know what ROM you are on at the moment? If you goto 'Start -> Settings -> Device Information' then you can get all the versions, copy them here and I guess peeps will be able to tell you what can be upgraded.
Duh! Signature... :roll:
hehe
LOL @ signature! agagag. hmm im actually scared of going to wm5. but huh who knows.. i would really rather avoid it tho... How is that new patch for tomtom? what does it fix? thanks for the quick answer.
radio rom
You might try updating your radio rom to 1.15
Greetings vastloper
Well before the patch I couldn't even install TomTom5! :lol:
The trick is to download the update BEFORE trying to install TomTom5. If you unzip the update package (WinRAR does it) then insert your TomTom installation CD without autorun, then in the folder you unziped run the "setup.exe" program. Hay presto it all works.
It's even simpler then I make it sound.
And yeah, Radio Upgrade if nothing else should fix a couple of problems. I think you have to do a hard reset anyway for the radio update, but if your BA keeps locking up I'd make sure you do one.
thanks for the info
thanks for the info guys... yea i did something stupid last night. i tried to do that VGA hack, and it ended up not working and screwing up my file explorer? any ideas on how to remove it? ive been messin with it and i got tot he point where its "GOOD AS IS" and i deleted the files.. whats teh file called so i can look in the FTP downloads for the 1.15 RADIO UPDATE.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Radio_1.15_Upgrade
Not only do you get the file, but full instructions on how to install it. :wink:
On the same page is a link to the old versions, so if for somereason you don't like the 1.15 Radio ROM you can just downgrade again. In fact the same goes for WM5.
thanks
hey thanks alot bro. Ill give the upgrade a shot.
I am more interested in vastloper because he has or had the same QTEK 9090 as i did. and im just curious as to how your current ROM is? stable? anything ya dont like about it??
well guys updated to the 1.5 RADIO ROM after reading the whole thread... had some probs with installation but thanks to the INFO on the site i managed to get through it... however i did lose my MP3 sound. and could not find an answer to it so far.. anyone got an idea?
1 person mentioned he had the same problem. but everyone else didnt.
update
did some trouble shooting and narrowed it down to media player i think. If i do a soft reset, and load an MP3 from PDA HD, it works. but when i close media player, all my sound cuts out!! even basic windows tones.
the sound will work while playing the MP3, even when i use the pause button, But its only after i close MEDIA PLAYER all my sound stops working. Any ideas?
found a ref to the exact same problem.

i duno if theres a fix... Thinking about going to Tmobile 1.42 im going to bed ive been reading for 10 hrs straight and its 7 am.
i've been having some problems w/ my phone ever since i installed the faria wm6 a few weeks ago. I've been having trouble sending texts/and making phone calls. And i noticed it is because the phone (in comm manager) is somehow just turning off on its own. I at first thought it was a problem w/ reception, but i doubted it because i used to have reception everywhere when using my old ROM. it happens all the time now, and idea what could be causing this? i really dont want to go back to wm5. any help?
You really should post this in several forums so that you can get the help you need.
tried...no one seems to respond anyways.

Try other WM6 ROMs and make tests before installing any other software, i.e. only with the programs that come with the ROM
Hi,
I am having trouble installing Fring on the latest Dutty Rom. Has anybody else experienced this problem?
I install the cab to either memory or storage and it still does the same thing... It just loads the splash screen up and hangs there?
I contacted fring about this problem and they replied with the following:
"Hello Colin,
Thank you for contacting our support team.
We are aware of the issue and working to solve it in the near future.
Make sure to check our blog for version updates http://www.fring.com/blog
Please feel free to contact us again should you have any further queries.
Thank you,

I see alot of people on this forum using Fring and I was just wondering how they went around installing it?
Thanks,
Colin Jensen
Worked fine for me on Dutty's V3 - I installed it and ran it with wi-fi turned off and was surprised that it automatically turned wi-fi on to connect.
Same here
Yeah, I got the same problem on my phone. I have had Fring on my before but it was acting buggy so I uninstalled it and looked for the newer version of it and tried installing it but I install it and like you said the splash screen comes up and just hangs.
Did you ever get it to work? I see that this is an old thread.

I had the same problem on my phone when I installed for a brief period of time last week. I ended up uninstalling......
i have installed the cab on a number of ROMS, never had any issue..
official tilt 6.0 rom didn't work, q mobile 1.2 rom didn't work...official tilt 6.1 rom, @ least it actually opens now (no more error screen) but doesn't get past loading. 3 roms, still haven't been able to get it working over here.
yep, confirmed, same problem, multiple roms, multiple ways of installing, multiple connections when opening program, Fring is still just stuck on the splash screen that says "Fring is loading" I had it working at one point in my Kaiser's life but nothing now seems to revive it, been trying for months, there are no fixes that I have seen online. Any good alternatives?
No problem so far.....
been using it for over 1month now....
installing and uninstalling for more than 8times
i justgot my kaiser....thats why with all thecustomization....
am using a russian Wm6.1 rom
I have the same issue
I tried every known fix that can be googled... I also contacted Fring... no help. It seems to be a huge problem with the 6.1 Roms. Someone here should have a fix...
Nope, it's fring's job to get it right, not much we can do... and they unfortunately dont seem to care much about WM6.1 users given the number of reports they've had for weeks/months about the problem and their everlasting "we're gonna investigate it" answer.

I have just installed Fring today on PDACornerUltimate ROM v15, it works properly.
I was able to make a SIP call to Fringe Testcall as well as SkypeOut call.

Language settings
I've the same problem with Fring that I've with google map.
My PPC regional settings are set to China, since it's the olny way to display chinese caracters everywhere in the OS (notice the OS is in English).
But, fring's language (like google map) is choosen according to those settings... it's very annoying.
Does anybody if there is a way to disable this feature (registry hack...) ?
Thanks,
Fring on kaiser
i just installed fring on my kaiser im using duttys_wm6.1 hybrid v2 and dont have a problem with it. it loaded up properly and everything seems to be working. my only thought is maybe a high amount of cpu usage, (programs that are running from start-up?) that is slowing everything down and causing the app to hang of freeze. thats just my thought. im probably wrong. anytime i have an issue with any kind of app freezing of not starting up thats usually were i look first. i hope that this helps. if not im sorry and at least i tried.

I have version 4.57 and my message box where I type is messed up. I can't see what I type. I've attached a picture for example. I tried different versions but all is still the same. Is it my ROM? I have udKs 8.0..Duttys ROM worked fine but I changed to udK...I even tried hard resetting but still the same problem...anyone has this problem?
nothing comes close to IM+ ..only Agile is #1 i'd say... and Slick messenger doesnt have mobile buddys for AIM...
thanks!
No replies eh? Shame because I have the exact same problem.

Well, if you DID hard reset and still have the same problem, then it must be your ROM. I don't have this kinda of issue so far.
BTW, 4.58 is released.
Nghiem, I tried 4.58 and I got the same results.
Anyway, I'm moving on to JiveTalk now.
It's the rom. Something with the OS is not meshing well with IM+. In my experience IM+ will only work with WM6.1 OS version 19170 and 19716 and older. There are also some hybrid roms that are based on 19716 where IM+ may work, but I personally have not tested them.
I currently use my own cleaned up version of 3.02 with 19170 OS and all my programs work great. Hope this helps.
I'm having this problem too... I've been using IM+ for quite a while with WM5 rom and it did ran smoothly without any problem. Just I upgraded to WM6.1 rom, I can't use IM+ anymore: everytime when I click on someone to open up the message box, the program just shuts down, I never can type any message to anyone
I hope there'll be a way to fix this problem soon coz' I like IM+ and don't wanna downgrade my machine!
try dutty's new 19700 build,works fine with that
The new version (currently in beta) might work better. Check their website to see if it's put up yet.
I'm using WM6 so far, so I haven't seen any problems, but those of you who are, can you turn on debugging/logging and send Shape Services the log files, if it creates some?
They're pretty good about helping, albeit they are sometimes a little slow to respond. I used IM+ on my Palm for quite a while and worked with them several times over bugs.

Hi i just Flashed my Kaiser tilt 8925 to from windows 6.0 to TouchFLO 2.0 everything seems to be working fine except one little problem i cant seem to hear any sound /ring tones/ from it- i tried going to settings/sounds already ...and tried adjusting the sound settings already with no luck can someone help/tell me how to fix ....??? Please Email me ASAP if you can help [email protected]
It's always a good idea to follow all instructions when flashing, i imagine by TouchFlo you really mean 6.1 to which then you need a compatible radio...
The Ultimate Radio Thread
In future please use the search as this is so common...
i just had this problem and resolved it by down reving my radio software... i was on the latest, 1.71(i think) and went down to 1.70?.19? or something like that...
if you are still running on a STOCK rom/radio i am of no help though.
OMG I don't know how to read instructions or even search, HELP HELP !
