ATT WM6 iGO not working, gx.dll problem?

I've upgraded my vodafone to the at&t wm6 and iGO 2006 plus doesn't work correctly, it loads shrunken/compressed in the middle of the screen to the point of (almot) unusable, it worked fine on the wm5.
I think the problem is with the gapi, as when I tried using Morph gear with manual driver and selected gapi the screen was also compressed in the middle, and it too woked fine with gapi on wm5.
I know the GAPI is located at the gx.dll file, I can't delete or rename that file, anyone knows how to maybe put the gx.dll file from wm5 on the wm6?

Hello
I have the same Problem with I-GO and WM6
So i flashed back to WM5 :-(

treo 750v, flashback ?
I have the same problem with my treo 750v. Moreover also my phone is now locked, whereas initially I could use ith wiht any provider. I know this was nog a smart move by now. Question is how to solve this. Anybody has a clue ?
According to palm it is not possible to flash back to WM5. However I read in previous post they recovered wm5, was this also with palm 750v ?
Hope somebody can help.

how do you perform a rollback to wm5
can some help in telling me how to perform a rollback to wm5 on the treo 750v to the 1.16 firmware version.

IGO - Treo 750 - WM6 problem
Hi there!
Could you figure out something about the IGO display problem that occurs after WM6 upgrade?
I have beed playing around with the sys.txt file changing settings in the [interface] and [gx] sections. I have also tried to replace the gx.dll GAPI library with the latest one.
No success so far.
Please, let me know if you have any progress on this!
Thanks!

Solution for running iGO on Treo 750 with WM6
Please verify if the following solution works:
- Create a file in your iGO folders called sys.txt
- The file should contain the following section:
[interface]
gxoff=1
It already worked for a few Treo users.

Hi:
I would love to try this. I am somewhat of a newbie though, can you please give further instructions? I of course understood the part about creating new file, from there I got a little lost. Do I create a text document with gxoff=1 as the actual text
in it? Sorry if this is a dumb question
Thanks!

Well, am VERY happy to report, that the excellent advice given by rmplus, worked perfectly after I figured out that I had to include the entire text (I was leaving off the [interface] portion):
[interface]
gxoff=1
in a .txt file called sys.
THANKS SO MUCH

Does anyone happen to know of a fix like this for Jewel Challenge?
I am having the same problem.
Thanks!

after i did this i am getting an error:
C:\GPS_2006R3_iGOSE\firefly\base\core\ffsurface.cpp.299
Exception in EndPaint
exiting application

Hi all
I'm having exactly the same problem as gilmargolin - above. iGO 2006 worked perfectly under WM5 (one of the few programs that did). iGO Tech Support says the program is not supported on WM6, but someone must have an idea as it is only a screen resolution problem.
Cheers

Did you try the solution given in post# 6?
It worked perfectly for me.

Yep - verbatim. I stored the sys.txt file in the SD card iGO folder root. If I place the file anywhere else sensible, I get a hardware error. Frustrating!

That's too bad. Not to be funny, but did you make sure to include the entire text, just as it's listed?
[interface]
gxoff=1
On my first try I left off the [interface] part, and it wouldn't work.
Good Luck

Nope - nothing so simple. Sigh...

Ugh, that's too bad. Sorry I couldn't be any help.

I resolve problem Igo 2006 on Treo 750 WM6
1. Uninstall previous iGo version from Treo 750
2. Copy install files of June iGo version on the root of SD card (folders [2577] & [iGo])
3. Start autorun.exe from folder [2577]
4.Put in [Igo] folder on SD card, "sys.txt" file with
[interface]
gxoff=1
And that's it!
It works for me.

Thanks!!!
It worked perfectly!!!

Does it work really slower then how it works regularly on WM5?
On my device there are frezzes of couple of seconds.

Does PHM Registry Editor work with WinMobile 6?

Hi all,
I've tried many times to load PHM Registry Editor on my Kaiser with Windows Mobile 6 without success.
Does PHM Registry Editor work with Windows Mobile 6? If not, is there another one that may work?
Thanks,
Phil

Works for me
My installation worked.

mine too.. it is actually one of the few that did work, and pretty good.

It does work, give us some more details and let's see if we can help.
How far do you get?
Is it a Cab or Exe?
Do you get any error messages?
etc
Alternative - perhaps Total Commander using the //plugins directory.

Details
Hi,
Okay, that's good news to me, it will work, and it's just me
Here's the details; When I goto http://www.phm.lu/downloads/download.aspx?{940B734A-C437-41C7-ADED-2A4418802FD3}
to download, I've downloaded the ActiveSync (twice) and the CD Redistribution links and tried installing from within the phone and off my laptop via USB and each time I gotten an error on the phone saying the file is not recognizable. What am I doing wrong here?
Cheers,
Phil

Ok. From this site:
http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
Choose this one from the list:
Pocketpc 2002 2003 arm/pxa
Move the unopened cab file to device with AS explorer function.
Tap it to install. (I have mine installed to SD card)
Mike

I have a really good reg editor here if you need it.
(Got it from.... a tool pack)
Since the upload doesn't allow this type of file... i had to zip it
anyway put it on the device of your htc phone and run it from there.
Note: its not an install, its an actual application
Another good reg editor is resco, and total commander.
(total commander's registry is in the root //)

Hi,
Wow, thanks. That worked without a hitch and I opened it up successfully on the phone. Thank you Mike, great help and right to the point. What did I miss? How would I have known that the 'PocketPC 2002.2003 (ARM/PXA)' was the file I needed for a HTC TyTNN II with Windows Mobile 6?
No to look at some of those useful edits, after a complete registry back up of course.
Cheers,
Phil

Just for general info on downloading file types:
Many sites offer a choice of different application file types to download I always go for the CAB file rather than the EXE file. The CAB file you install by putting it on the SD Card and tapping it. The advantage is that if you ever need to re-install you do not need your PC, just tap on the CAB again to install it.
For this and most devices nowadays you should choose:
ARM files
POCKETPC or PPC files (not smartphone)
WM5 or WM6 may also be stated. Most WM5 apps will work on WM6 and many WM 2003 apps will also work.
Nearly always if it's an EXE download then this is meant to be opened on the PC with the device connected by AS or Device Centre. Very occassionally you will come across an EXE that has to be put on the device and then run. (these rare files usually have a statement telling you to do this).

Thanks Mike, great info and very useful.
Cheers,
Phil

Windows 7 build 7057

Did anyone tried to install Windows 7 build 7057. This is the newest version which is available now on the world wide web. Currently I am running Windows 7 build 7000 on my HTC Shift. Maybe someone can tell me how the update function is working from 7000 to 7057.
And how can i delete the message "Evaluation copy. Build 7057.winamin.090305-2000". I could try some old versions but i don't know if that is working.

haven't tried it.. I have tried 7000-7022-7048.. but not the 7057... until there is a really interesting new thing in Win 7, I won't change the version .. 7048 has everything working fine for me.. and so should be 7057.
I don't know how to remove the trademark.. but I know it was possible with vista... I guess it is the same for 7.. just look on some forums

I just installed it today........so far so good

All function with this build is ok!!!
Wifi - bluetooth - shagctrl - internet share from snapvue - resolution changer.
Not working for the two button of resolution changer and shagctrl, only via software!!

I haven't tried in Shift... but working on the Toshiba-M700... as such the build is fine. It is good

So all themes including aero is working with both resolutions 800x480 and 1024x600?
and how about activating.. does it work with this version too or does it expire after 30 days?

Control panel is working very well for windows 7057. The resolution changer isnt.
Unfortunately the 'classic theme' has been removed from windows 7. Right now I am having a lot of trouble with the blue screen. I cannot switch back to 800x480 after I've changed the screen resolution because there is no classic mode i chould switch to.

all themes exist in Win7.. you just need to select the correct one (at the bottom of page).
if you have issue, just press F8 at start and choose to run windows in VGA mode.. which is 640x480 and then choose 800x480 in windows.
everything works perfect for me except the BSOD with 1024+AERO.
all buttons works.

Windows 7 Migration to build 7057
Thanx for all these reactions!
After reading this messages i decided to upgrade my system.
So this morning i tried to upgrade my Windows 7 (build 7000) to Windows 7 (build 7057).
I had Windows 7 installed with the Step-by-step guide for installing Windows 7 beta1 instructions.
After installation i didn't have any problems at all. All my settings and documents are there!
The one problem that is still existing is the videodriver. With the upgrade the videodrivers are installed again from Windows. After installation of the HTC Driver the resolutionchanger is working again. Of course without Aero.
The only thing that i can't solve is removing the Evalution copy watermark. Can someone help me with this?
Update:
Touch screen is not working. Had to reinstall the software (EC and Touchdriver)

So there is no solution for higher resolution and Aero? An alternate driver or reg tweak?

At the moment there is no solution to this problem. Why would you even want to run aero with only 64MB dedicated video memory...

If the function is there I want it nevermind the productivity I used to say until Vista came...not important but teh basic theme is ugly.

Did you try with a different memory card?

I try with a different memory card, a lot of cards and I try to reinstall vista. Sd works on vista. Also when I insert the sd on seven 7057 wi fi stops working. In your opinion may depend from the ROM that I installed on WM side?
Thanks deadnex.

It doesn't have anything to do with what ROM version you are using on WM side. Try changing the power option to "high performance" in Win7. If that doesn't work you could try to rollback the driver (in case you installed a new driver through windows update)
Hope this is helpful

Flashing with MTTY through Ubuntu?

Hi, I have recently moved away from windows to ubuntu as i hate the thought of being bound to it.
I often flash ROMs and always use the MTTY format tool before i flash.
I could probably fudge running MTTY from the microsd to format but the trick would be how to remove the nbh file so that i could put a rom nbh onto it.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Cheers

am i the only one on ubuntu?

oh well i suppose i can use a micro sd adapter. cheers for the input guys.

I am an avid user of Ubuntu. It seems the major "windows" based phones around here, kind of prohibit users from being Ubuntu capable.
I have recently tried flashing my TP2 from VMware running XP on Ubuntu. I cannot get "task 29" to run from SDcard, and was looking for some MTTY help to send it the command or something.
I run Ubuntu 10.04 on all my machines now, and had found a XP HDD laying around in the past to flash my TP2 to firestorm. I just did not format. My friends TP2 with identical firestorm(he has slightly newer radio and ran task 29 before flashing) runs like lightning to my phones thunder. Don't have windows anywhere now...
Meanwhile the newest firestorm supports MP4's...
Either or, if you could leave me some insight on flashing from mtty in Ubuntu, I'd love to be able to continue flashing.

Moved to Q&A, and title changed slightly
Easiest way is to copy the NBH to mem card, and flash via SPL if you all ready have H-SPL, if not, flash H-SPL at a friends house and then flash NBH Rom
Good Luck
