Folks lets try to get a listing of software that you may belive that causes problems with Molski's Rom. I think this will be benifical for newer users to be able to go to one place and see all of the software that we have experienced problems with so they do not have to.
If at all possible for every program that we list as a problem I would like to have an alternative.
From my experience.....
O2 sms plus (for mass sms messages) causes a problem with the native SMS software. It has been known to prevent you from reciving or send sms messages. I am currently hunting for another program but I have not had any luck.
Thanks to all the Chefs that keep us in some great ROMs, keep em comming!
I think we all know SPB time does not work...and man if you install it just go ahead and do a hard reset.
SPB time is one of my FAVORITES but if you want to keep the rom do not install it.
After installing my 8125 got so hung up I couldn't even do a hard reset...I had to reflash from bootloader.
pocketbreeze does the same thing

This is very strange I have been using this rom since it came out with out the autofill or the calender giving me any type of problem. What other software are you running?

Not running any other software, only what came default with Molski's ROM.
I hate when I need to Add recipient manually every time I start writing SMS's.
Second big issue for me is, that I cant get QWERTZ-keyboard to work with this ROM. I'm finnish, so I need to use scandinavian letters alot almost in every SMS.
My plans for year 2007 are open, so calendar aint so big deal - but i'm still using latest Active Sync and still cant get it to syncronize past meetings.
I encountered problems with clock and date resetting after every time while takeing out battery. Also device stops responding randomly after some time of working in standby mode and nothing except taking battery out is making it to soft reset. But the second problem might be caused by programs I'm using... Do you have similar problems?

I have had this happen with the time and date going back to June 7th once I took the battery. I don't take the battery normaly so I just reset the time. Why is this a problem?
The system lockup is most likely software related, but what other software are you running. If possible I would try to reflash the Rom and install spb backup and backup after you install all the software that comes with the Rom that you use. Then install each additional software and due what you would normaly due when it locks up. If it works then backup again and so on and so on till you narrow the problem down.
This is what I do and it works for me but if there is an easier way that someone knows of please let us know.
This is the whole reason that I started this thread so we can learn from each others problems.
Hey guys I am new to the forum and I just did my first flash to my wizzard and I used this new 3.2 rom. I must say its amazing but I am having problems it keeps turning on by its self when I put it in suspend and the battery dies very fast and the phone book wont let me look up any names that start with V. Can you guys help me out with some advice?
For "Sun'n'moon" application, you can replace by "WeatherPanel" (www.marsware.net) very powerfull.
On my Wizard, 2 problems:
- Prssreader is not compatible with AKU3.2, when installed the phone boot crash.
Today, I don't have found better or equal rss reader software: --> please help me if you know better!!!!
- I don't like clock or date on my task bar, I want to remove it with "RegistryWizard" but when I choose "None" and restart, the sound and network icons are hidden by something: --> Can you help me too????
Molski's Rom is very fast when booting and is not too tunned! (good!!!). Thanks Molski for your work!!!
great rom so far only one minor prob.
1) no pRssReader. the today plugin causes a reboot. no big deal. must be badly written sw.

I've attached a copy of Qmail. It handles RSS feeds nicely. It will also handle email. Basically, its a Japanese version of Outlook Express. Good thing is that the program is written in English. But, there is NO documentation in English. You'll have to figure out how to make it work on your own.
There is not setup. Just unzip it and copy it to your storage card. Then just run the "q3u.exe" program.
Can not use slide-out keyboard for cyrillic characters
Guys,
The rom is great! Molski, Faria - thank you very much.
The biggest problem for me is that I can not type Cyrillic characters using the slide-out keyboard. The standard way to set it up (by setting \\HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\Locale) - does not work with this ROM.
Any suggestions would be very appreciated.
Hey man, It will not so bad.
Do you get back you backup by SPB Backup? The backuping programs sometimes damage devices GSM. Tray Hard reset and than it will be IMHO OK
I dont belive, that that ROM is such unusefull like you write.

Howdy. I just want to make sure I read this correctly. So, you have T-Mobile (from your profile) and Molski's ROM 3.0.0.0 and you have not lost -any- calls/VM Notifications at all? I mean, it took me a few days to realize I was missing calls (when people started complaining at me thinking I was screening).
I am in Cingular, and if you are not missing calls (please, try to make sure as accurately as you can...) do report back, as this would be a huge pointer and there are quite a few of us stuck with this awesome ROM.
[btw: I LOVE this ROM and have no plans to go back... we all just need to figure this one out]
RE: the topic of this thread, this ROM seems 100% stable for me, battery usage and all. The actual thread for the radio/missed calls is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=287087
Voice Command 1.5
Cant say if it was directly related to the ROM, but Voice Command 1.5 would work for all but contacts and phone. If Contacts or Phone were enabled, VC 1.5 would fail to start.
Upgrade to VC 1.6 solved problem, and 1.6 is waaay better anyway.
Thanks, Molski for this ROM, I'm lovin it.

Hi, have a strange issue with my MDA-Vario III (Using Dutys 6.1)
My sound notifications seem to have a mind of there own and I keep missing emails and SMS's.
When I check the sound notifactions settings I can see that most are unchecked, disabling all sounds. So, I check them all again.... then a few days/hours later, I notice I have unread emails/SMS's etc. I re-check the settings and some Gremlin has unchecked them all again!
I've re-installed the ROM, and only have a few apps installed. (Opera 9.5 beta and google maps at the moment) and just the stock things on Duttys ROM.
Anyone got any ideas?

Same thing here starting today.
I just did a search in the Kaiser forum here for "notifications" and came across thread.
Reckon I'll heard to the Opera forums for the workaround.
Looks like this is the thread:

Ok I have a minor issue with the sounds and notifications on my MDA Vario III in that when I set the new text message notification no sound or vibration is made when I receive a new one... all other sounds work to date any ideas on how to get this working, note all the boxes that need to be ticked are...
I know this is a bit of a pain, but i used to soft reset my phone at night to ensure my alarm goes off. I didnt know opera was my issue lol. Also, Galarm is a better solution as far as alarms go!
Hi have got a problem that reasently started happening. All the settings under Start-settings-personal-sounds & notifications-notifications get blanked out. Anybody got a clue what causes this. Have never seen this befor and have been using ppc sinse wm2002.

Umm I don't recall. I read somewhere that a guy had to write a script to change the Reg Keys back every time he shut down Opera.
Otherwise you would just need to uninstall Opera, for now.

No. But remember that even if it's a pretty serious problem this release is a BETA, which is by design not meant to be used in everyday life but only for volunteer users to find/report issues.
If you want bug-free software, either use an earlier stable version or wait for the final product
Other than that yes, a temporary manual fix is to set your notifications as you want them, export the related registry key to a file with a reg editor, and import it again everytime you exit opera to restore the settings. There are more details on the Opera Mobile forum.
Opera 9.5 beta 1 is the prob, until next beta is out, the temporary solution that works 100% is here:

Hi there
Does anyone else use SPB Pocket Plus (latest version V4.0.2 - Dec 07) and WM6.1 and suffer the annoying problem where the today plugin icons don't pickup correctly after a reset?
It's easily fixed by clicking to refresh all tabs, but surely it shouldn't do it???
I'm also suffering a problem whereby not all text messages are received by my phone. (I posted in the General section with no joy - am hoping that you software guys may know if something conflicts?!) It's very strange as the phone lights up as if a text is coming through, then nothing happens. I've tried a Hard Reset and restore to no avail.
Wierd thing is, my mate has a Kaiser on Vodafone UK (V1615) running WM6.0 and he has the same problem - I'm on O2-UK so it's not a carrier problem.
I set his Kaiser up for him with much the same software as mine, including SPB PocketPlus V4.0.2...
I also (I know, I'm sorry!) have a problem with the today screen if I change things... For example, if I change the backdrop via Pictures and Video's, more often than not the phone will hang requiring a stylus reset. Am wondering if this is SPB PocketPlus related???
Any idea's? (Sorry about the multi questions!!)
Cheers
sorry about the double post!

As far as the PocketPlus, I am using it and I haven't had a problem at all with the icons or anything else for that matter. I haven't had any problems with the txt msgs either. You may need to reset the mms server?? I don't know about that, I just remember reading about it in another thread somewhere... As for the backdrop change, that's not a pocket plus related conflict. I am not sure what else you have installed, but I have changed mine multiple times in the past 2 days and haven't had a single problem or anything that told me I had reset or that I needed to soft reset the phone. I would suggest unistalling the Pocket Plus and reinstalling it. I know that I have had to do that before because of one of the other SPB proggies i used had changed some values in the registry for it. Otherwise, I would contact SPB, they would know how to fix it. Unless you didn't purchase it...
Hi Killerbeans!
I'v tried uninstalling and re-installing a couple of times to no avail unfortunately
The only other things I have installed (all bought and paid for!) that startup with the phone are SKTools (set to performance optimisation) and Kasperski AntiVirus...
I might try uninstalling those and SPB and reinstalling them one by one...
Cheers for the response though!
I have been havng the spb problems since 6.1 installation as well (I am with AT&T in the US, original Kaiser).
Thanks for pointing out the "Refresh All Tabs" option...I have to stupidly admit that I was not aware of it and I have been fixing the icons one at at a time....very boring...However, I have no solution to offer to the problem, other than to verify that it is a real one.
Hmm running fine on my kaiser with the hyperdragon roms...
Are you using the "close button" plugin? if so, did you enter tmail.exe and poutlook.exe as exceptions? don;t doing this could lead to problems
for the icons, I have the same problems too sometimes, did you install it on main memory? are the missing icons from programs installed on storagecard?
there is an option under today plugins->advanced, "refresh icons in today plug-in when storage card is inserted." try enabling that and see if it helps
Bartus
Hi guys!
Thanks for the responses! It's 'good' to know it's not just me having the SPB problem, although not good that it's happening at all!
I've installed it on Storage Card (as I have since my Wizard days). Using SKTools I've set the SDDeamon to startup 1st so was hoping that'd sort it... it didn't
I'm glad the refresh all tabs helped!
I've added those exceptions Bartus so I'll report back! I have the refresh icons when storage card inserted already which doesn't seem to work. It is the apps located on the storage card that don't load though so it has do be something to do with that.
Go back to 4.0.1 it doesn't have the problem.
Hi Sirooga

Today Plugin Problems
I also use pocket plus on my Tilt, and it is apparently version 4.0.2 build 6227. What really annoys me is that the today plugin worked perfectly on wm 6.0, but after that &[email protected]#! 6.1 upgrade, it works fine for a few hours after I installed a lot of programs and soft resetted a bunch, until I backed up my phone. After using sprite Backup 5 ONCE, it deletes all my tabs and icons in the plugin and doesn't remember them no matter what I do. It still is checked in the today plugins menu, but it isn't there as there is nothing for it to show. SPB's got some serious work to do.

Hi,
I recently upgraded my Topaz to WM 6.5. Since doing so any new words i addin XT9 are lost after a soft reset/restart. Any ideas how o fix this?
Thanks
Any Ideas??
I have tried deleting and /or renaming the files eT9Rudb, eT9Asdb and eT9Cdb in the windows directory. These are system/ROM files but I have used Resco explorer to change properties before deleting or renaming them. After startup the originals are back. If i use eT9MyWords.exe to add words they are lost after a restart also. Is there a reg setting that controls the recreation of these files at each reboot?
Any ideas please?? I have searched many forums with no success.
I'm having the same issue mate. eT9MyWords.exe won't add any words and all my Added words that i save in WinMo's messaging are lost after a soft reset.
I have eT9Rudb, eT9Asdb in my windows folder but can't open them or even copy them over to my desktop. And i daren't delete them! I'll have a look at that Resco explorer.
So frustrating that words are lost after a soft reset. I'm seriously considering going back to 6.1!
Hope someone here can help us out...pretty please!!

This is the reply from HTC,
"Dear valued HTC customer,
Thank you for contacting our Customer Support Center. We are dedicated to providing you with the best quality service and answering all of your questions and concerns.
At the moment htc does not have any hotfix for this issue and we recommend to the customers to keep cheking the htc web for future updates. "
I'm not sure if this is a genuine " we know there is a problem and are sorting it" or a "no idea what you're on about so PFO"
same issue here..
the file which stores the new words must be
eT9Cdb.Cdb located in the windows folder.
I learned a few words with XT9 and did a reset.
XT9 seems to not read it, because all
words are still in this file if you open it
with a simple editor on your pc...
The file has exact the same timestamp
before and after a softreset which means
no changes ...
Same here. with WM6.5 XT9 loose new added words. There wasn't problem with WM6.1. I'm using original HTC Italian ROM. The HTC support said : "the SW is in this way !"
I got the same problem.
Flippin 6.5!! I cant see what all the fuss was about. There is hardly any benefit in upgrading. Im using the UK T-Mobile 6.5 upgrade.
Please tell HTC Support that,while they are busy sorting the problem out, here at XDA we have ROMs today they will (improbably) make the day after tomorrow. The ROM in my signature does not have this issue at all, it's a scandal that that they messed up with a such insignificant but widely used feature.
At the moment the score is:
Cooked ROMs 999
Official ROMs 0
...and counting...

Can I cut and paste your comment to HTC support ?
I contacted HTC regarding the loss of added words over the weekend and got a reply a few minutes ago:
Dear valued HTC customer, Thank you for contacting our Customer Support Center. We are dedicated to providing you with the best quality service and answering all of your questions and concerns.
This is a software issue and we are working in the new ROM upadate to this device to fix couple bugs in the system but there is no date to be release yet and we recommend to keep monitoring the web site for future updates.

Wrote the follow text to the HTC Support Team:
"Dear Support Team, My problem is a known one: My HTC TD2 with the 6.5 update, doesn't remember new words which were put to the dictionary after a soft reset - After every softreset new xt9 dictionary words are always deleted, which is very annoying! please fix this tiny problem, with causes so much annoyance for so many"

This could be a driver conflict and we recommend to try a hard reset on it make sure that you back up all your data before the reset. If the problem still going on after this then contact us in this line +44 8458900079 and we will send your device to be repaired.

I received the same answer from HTC Support that seppi_eat_world, but I haven't try out the supposed solution because I don't have time right now to install all the programs again.
Has anybody tried this Hard Reset solution?
Yes , I' tried HR , but without any success...
