AKU2 and Goodlink passwords - no good

Just a quick note looking to see if anyone else is having the same problems that I've been having the last 24 hours.
I've had my 8125 about 3 weeks - and in that time have successfully upgraded to various summiter AKU2 ROMs. Last night my IT department pushed out a Goodlink policy update requiring passwords on all handhelds. Of course this is a pain in the ass, but I understand the issues and don't really have a problem with this policy.
However, there is a serious issue with the goodlink password requirement and AKU2 - basically they don't seem to work together. Immediately after having the policy pushed to me, the first time I did a soft reset I ended up with a blank white screen, with the task bar on top. The left side of the task bar would quickly flash "password" and then change to "Start" (w/ no start logo) and that was it... Nothing... Soft reset - same problem. The only thing that brought the device back was a hard reset, but once I reloaded goodlink and re-entered the password I was back in the same place.
After pulling my hair out for most of the night (it's not good to go to sleep at 3:00am when you have a client board meeting at 8:30am), I decided on my way to the airport that I would try loading the original Cingular ROM back. Surprise surprise, that worked (sort of - additional details below). After spending a lot of time trying out different solutions today, I've come to the conclusion that goodlink passwords only work with the original Cingular ROM - I don't know if it's a problem with AKU2 or a problem with the customizations.
Anyone else with this issue? I'm currently running goodlink 4.7, I'm wondering if 4.8 will fix any of these problems, I just can't find an OTA link for 4.8 and the cab from goodlink doesn't install correctly.
Additional problems - Even with the original ROM, there are some conflicts with the goodlink password. If I have certain shortcuts in the startup folder (at this point I think its AEBPlus and PQZII), the device freezes immediately after entering the password. After soft-resetting, I can explore the device from my PC while it's waiting for a password and delete the offending shortcuts, soft-reset again, and then I'm back in business.

I just posted the same problem earlier today. I have been using the latest Goodlink 4.8 build and have the same problem with AKU2. White screen of death with the status line showing at the top. My IT department turned off the password requirement for me. That seems the only way to fix it so far. I guess this is one reason Cingular has not released new firmware yet.

well - it's nice to know I'm not the only one.
Unfortunately my company doesn't officially support goodlink on an Windows Mobile devices - only the Treo 650. Given the fact that the device isn't supported AND I'm using a hacked ROM, I can just imagine the laughs they'll have at my expense.
At this point I'll just hang out and wait to see what happens.
I wonder if this is why Palm pulled the AKU2 update for the Treo 700w? Supposedly it was due to a compression issue, but who really knows? I'm posting a message on on treocentral, as there's a Good rep who monitors that board.

just curious.. does your it dept use the remote erase function on the backend?
i believe we do thus we do not require password protect on goodlink...
good to know i shouldn't have probs w/ it on the treo700w since i gotta setup one on fri..

We do, but I work for a company that has become very, very, very conscious of protecting client data - with a couple of in-the-news issues (one moron left a cd with client employee data on a plane). They pushed the password requirement out to blackberries last week, and Goodlink devices this week.

Yes Ive had the same problem for last 2 weeks with both mini s and sp5 and goodlink.
Ive just updated goodlink to 4.8 and all seems to be fine.
Ive only just updated to 4.8 today but so far so good.

Update
I had some free time on my hands to tinker tonight - so I decided to see if I could test 4.8 with and AKU2 ROM.
Since my company hasn't rolled 4.8 out yet, I had to basically hack it in, which involved extracting the files from the 4.8 desktop installer from the goodlink website and copying those over my existing goodlink backup on the storage card (after copying the originals somewhere else of course).
I'm happy to report that, as of right now, the issue does seem to be resolved. It does look like 4.7 isn't compatible with AKU2 (if you use passwords) - so if this situation applies to you (on 4.7, using passwords) you shouldn't upgrade to an AKU2 ROM.

4.8 still does not work for me
I initially loaded goodlink 4.8 and had the password problem with the 2.17 rom. I have given up and am using the stock firmware until there is an official cingular update.
glad to hear others are having better luck.

I had the same problem with GoodLink 4.7 and the new version 2.x ROMs on my Qtek 9100. I ended up downgrading to version 1.x ROMs (Button 1.5.4.2 WWE works fine with GoodLink 4.7.

aku2, goodlink 4.7/4.8, cingular 8125, and password policy
Thanks to CameronJ on his post. I was in the same boat, i.e. Going along fine on my Cingular 8125 with the released ROM when my company rolled out a password policy on Goodlink version 4.7. On the released ROM I started having unreliable service (disconnects almost continuously). I finally upgraded to AKU2 before seeing this thread (thanks Summiter for the great AKU2 build). However at that point I hit the consistent White Password Screen of Death as soon as I reinstalled my backup of Goodlink 4.7 and the policy was enforced.
However CameronJ's 4.8 suggestion was perfect. I too couldnt do a normal upgrade but by downloading 4.8 from Good and then copying the entire directory from the Pocket PC 2005/4.8/EN/ directory into my backup directory, I was back up and running with no problems. (this of course ignores all my false starts and problems). Dont use the Smartphone files as those wont work.
I was on the verge of giving up. Thanks for this thread.

additional password hacks
After playing around a bit in the registry the last week, I also found how to have a password that violates my organization's password policies. While I understand the reasoning behind having a password, the 30 minute timeout (which is the max my organization lets me set) is way too short. It looks like the goodlink password parameters work in the following way:
- Password policies are passed down through GoodLink and stored in the registry in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\GoodLink\Password. There are a number of keys here, including ITLockedTime, ITLocked, ITPasswordMinLength, and a few others.
- When you go into the Lock/Password settings, the control panel settings dialog pulls from these registry keys to determine if your password meets policy.
- After a short period of time, any changes to these registry keys get overwritten back to corporate policy, however, nothing ever checks your password (as long as you don't go back into the Lock control panel extension) to make sure it complies with policy.
Basically, this means that you can change the key for minimum length or timeout and then go into the Lock control panel extension and change your password. I currently have a 1 character password set to timeout every 24 hours (instead of 6 characters that times out in 30 minutes). I've been running this way for about 4 days now, and even though the registry keys are back to policy, my reduced security password is still in force.
ITPasswordMinLength is self explanatory - change this to however many characters you want as your minimum.
ITLockedTime is a little more obscure. The decimal value here corresponds to the number of items in the list of timeout values in the timeout dropdown. 1 means only one item will show up (which is 0 minutes), I think 11 is 24 hours.
ITLocked - I'm guessing that if you set this to 0 it doesn't check these parameters at all, which means you might be able to disable the password. I haven't played with this one yet.

Wow, I've been looking for this kind of hack for awhile. I'm going mad with the couple minute forced timeout/lock policy I'm forced to live with. Imagine trying to use your pocket pc as a GPS device and it locking every couple minutes! (totally sucks)
Do you know if it's possible to do what did in a normal AKU2 MS Push Mail system? (I dont use goodlink, just regular microsoft push)
Which reg keys do I mess with?
How do you keep the changes from being detected/overwritten?
Thanks!

Any update on rather this has been addressed in a more recent ROM (AKU 2.3?). I am looking to start my company's Goodlink trial program and currently have 2.17. Thanks!

An update - this is the best way to go. Set ITLocked to 0, go into the password control panel applet and uncheck the password box. No more password requirement.

As long as you are using the most recent version of the goodlink client (4.8 ) you will be fine. The issue is with the previous version of the client (4.7).

I had no problem with this nasty password bug when I upgraded to AKU 2.3. I'm using Goodlink 4.8.

This problem only exists with AKU2+ ROMs and GoodLink 4.7 - not 4.8

Thanks for the update guys. I'm assuming the "Get Good" link now downloads 4.8.

Can you elaborate on this process? Where do I find the password control panel applet?

Also, it appears that any changes that I make to the Good settings in the registry are over-written the very next time it syncs with the Good server. Anyone know how I can lock the registry settings that I set in addition to how I remove the requirement for the Good password controlled by my IT dept.

Touchscreen digitiser dead

Hello all. I purchased my Tilt about 3 weeks ago from an ATT store. It was running a little sluggish so i wanted to re flash the ROM. I have done this on many other Phones with great success. I used Duty's new version 7 and liked it very much. My problem is that after running it for about 1 day my touch screen stopped working. I have hard reset it and even flashed it with new and default Roms but when it starts and goes to do the setup i cant click the screen to do the setup. The phone is working behind the setup screen , I have answered phone calls. Is there any way i can bypass that part of the setup so i can restore my Tilt to its original form so i can return it ? I guess i would need a ROM for the tilt that didn't have that specific part in the setup. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have been reading the forums here for the past 4 days and cant find the answer anywhere else so i made this post. I want to run Kaiser sspl from my phone but cant get to it with that screen in front. Thanks in advance

Please read follow up
OK this is an update on my situation . I actually got pocket controller pro installed on my computer and on my Tilt so i can now access my devices registry , startup folders etc... Does anyone know what the process is or maybe a registry key that i can change in the start up that will stop that part of the setup from running ? Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

there is an app some place on this forum that does just what you need just never used it so I don't know what its called so do some searching on the forum and you will probably find it

Thanks for the response. Do you mean it will bypass the touchscreen alignment screen ? or i can run a program from my PC as if it were on my PCP?
By the way awesome stuff at your site

You can activesync right? If you can... Try this:
http://www.mtux.com/
Allows you to control the mobile's screen from pc.

Thanks for the reply
The problem is that even when accessing the ppc from a program on my computer i still cant get past the Align screen.

If can can access the /windows directory with activesync, delete the 'Welcome' shortcut in the /startup folder. That should stop the screen alginment program.
Edit:
Another (possibly easier) way to do this is to put an empty file (create with a text editor) called 'Welcome.not' in the root directory of a card in the MicroSD slot.

Another suggestion - though not tried by me on the Kaiser. Works for Hermes:
Remote ScreenAlignment User's Guide
Copyright © 2007, Code Factory, S.L.
Introduction
Screen alignment is part of the boot process of the Windows CE device, and is only necessary the first time the device is booted, or after a hard reset. Since Mobile Speak Pocket works on mainstream hardware and does not involve any specialized firmware changes, the screen alignment process cannot be completely bypassed.
However, we understand that the screen alignment process can be difficult for most users as it requires sighted assistance. In order to overcome this limitation, therefore, we have developed the Remote Screen Alignment application.
The Remote Screen Alignment Application runs on your desktop computer and retrieves the alignment information from the device. It then stores the information in a file on your computer. As long as you have this file, you will never need sighted assistance to align the screen no matter how many times you hard format the device.
We have included screen alignment information for certain devices in this application, so users of such devices can immediately use the program for its intended purpose. However, users of devices for which alignment information is not yet available in the application will have to get the screen aligned manually the first time. Once this is done, the user may retrieve the alignment information from the device and use it whenever the device needs to be formatted and its screen aligned again.
The Screen Alignment Process
When the device is turned on for the first time or a hard reset is performed, the "Setup your Pocket PC" wizard is displayed. You will hear an audio indication that the wizard has come up on the screen. This wizard is a set of screens that help the user align the device screen, testing the touch screen functionality, and setting the time zone for the user's region. The screen alignment process involves following displayed instructions to tap a target location which differs on every screen of the wizard.
Installing the Remote Screen Alignment Application
1.
Download the Remote Screen Alignment application installer from the Mobile Speak Pocket Downloads page.
2.
Run the Remote Screen Alignment installer file from where you have saved it in your computer.
3.
Select the installer language you wish to use, then activate the OK button.
4.
The next screen displays the License Agreement for this application. Press the "I agree" button when you are ready to proceed.
5.
The program to be installed is checked by default in the next screen. You can just activate the Next button.
6.
You may change the program folder for this application, but by default, C:\Program Files\Code Factory\Remote Screen Alignment is selected. Use the Browse button to choose another location, or press the Install button to accept the default and continue with installation.
7.
The application is then installed and if there were no problems with installing, focus will be on the Close button of a screen informing you that installation was successful. Press Enter here to exit the screen.
Using the Remote Screen Alignment Application
Following the successful installation of the Remote Screen Alignment application, you will find shortcuts in Start Menu > All Programs > Code Factory > Remote Screen Alignment for opening the Code Factory Downloads page, running the Remote Screen Alignment application, and uninstalling the program.
When you start the Remote Screen Alignment program, you will find four buttons with focus on the first one:
· OK button - is pressed to close the application. Tapping the Escape key or pressing Alt+F4 will achieve the same result.
· Skip button - is used to align the screen of your device remotely from your computer.
· Retrieve button - allows you to get the screen alignment information from your device, given that it is already properly aligned, and to store it in a file that you can use later to align your device screen after a hard reset.
· Alignment button - runs the normal screen alignment process and store the alignment information on your computer. You will need to manually align the screen if you select this option.
Aligning Your Device Screen Remotely from Your Computer
To find out if screen alignment information for your device model is already available upon installation of the Remote Screen Alignment application, follow these steps:
1.
Establish an ActiveSync partnership (standard or guest) between your computer and Pocket PC device. For instructions on how to set up a partnership, refer to the Mobile Speak Pocket Users Manual or ActiveSync Help.
2.
Run the Remote Screen Alignment application on your computer.
3.
Tab to the Skip button and press Enter. If the file containing the appropriate screen alignment information exists, then the message "Please wait while your device is being configured" is displayed, shortly followed by the message "The operation has been completed successfully. Your device will be restarted."
4.
Press Enter on the OK button already in focus and your device should restart.
5.
On your computer, you are returned to the Skip button and you may Shift+tab back to the OK button and activate it to close the application.
Note that the same steps are performed in order to align your device screen after every hard reset, if the screen alignment information is already stored in your device, whether or not you had to retrieve that information manually or was already included in the Remote Screen Alignment program.
However, if the screen alignment information for your device is not yet available, then activating the Skip button yields the message "No screen alignment information can be found for your device. The screen alignment will need to be done manually. Would you like to skip the welcome screen anyway?". It is suggested that you activate the No button in this screen, and ask a sighted person to align the screen for you.
Retrieving Screen Alignment Information
If you have already aligned the screen of your device, you need to retrieve the screen alignment information from the device. Follow these steps to do so:
1.
Make sure there is an existing ActiveSync partnership between your computer and Pocket PC device.
2.
Run the Remote Screen Alignment application on your computer.
3.
Press Tab to go to the Retrieve button and hit Enter.
4.
If the information was retrieved successfully, the message "The screen alignment information has been successfully stored" will be displayed and you can press the OK button at that screen to close it.
5.
Exit the application by activating the OK button.
The screen alignment information is stored in a file on your computer. This file is named according to your device model with a .dat extension. It can be found in C:\Program Files\Code Factory\Remote Screen Alignment, or in the program folder you selected during installation of the application.
You should ensure that the file for your device is not deleted or misplaced. You will not be able to align the screen without sighted help if you do not have this file in the future. Moreover, if the screen alignment information for your device was not included in the application files, we ask that you email it as an attachment to [email protected] so that we can add it to the next version of the Remote Screen Alignment program.

Thanks for all the Help!
rob.ocelot You Rule Brother! That was soooo easy ...I put it on the card an it worked ! Awesome !
I'm fixing it as i type this . Thanks again
On a side note, I called ATT support today and explained what was happening and he said that they would send a new phone out right away and will have it in 2 days. Than within 14 days i send the old one back to them. All in all a good experience with them so far.
Had to come and Edit my post here. After using your tip on putting that file on my card and rebooting i was able to run the software to restore my Tilt and is now 100% Restored to original ! The Guides from the people on this site are top notch and Thanks to you all ! Problem Solved and New Tilt on the way !

Remote Screen Alignment may not work on 6.5
Had a similar problem, though was on WinMo 6.5 (Anryl's 21725).
Unfortunately, this solution does not seem to work on 6.5- everytime the Remote Screen Alignment (RSA) executed successfully, and the phone restarted, but went back to the "Tap to setup device" screen.
Went back to stock HTC 6.1 ROM, and the RSA works fine.
Did not see this post in time to try the welcome.not tip on 6.5- will try that out once my phone is repaired!

You might try one of Abusalza's Ultimate X2 ROMs. I don't believe they want you to align the screen when you hard reset.
Dave

Thanks!
Thanks for the heads up, Dave.
Am trying one of his ROMs now, and you're right, they don't default to the "Tap..." screen.
Feels nice to be back with touching the screen again (my phone is back from repair)... When the touchscreen was dead that I really understood the versatility of the Kaiser, and most of the programs in it... I could get by most of my day by using various hardware keys!
Cheers!

Wm6 Remote Access Error

Had to Remote access a SBS 2003 Server from my Vario III "for real" the first time today.
Seems if you use the on screen keyboard (large Keys - No numbers showing), when you press the 123 button to access the numberpad, the numbers don't work on the destination machine. (Update: The 1 does, not no others)
Tried with Small keys (Number showing) and the PCM Keyboard - same effect - only the "1" transmitted, all other number keys are inoperable.
Same goes for using the real keyboard, as the Fn button has to be used, and this seems to affect the remote access (ie no numbers appear)
As I use complex passwords, I had to enter these on the application page before connecting - no problem there, but not being able to type numbers when connected is no good.
Any ideas - there doesn't appear to be an about/version screen on WM6 Remote Access.

Bump!
Has anyone got Remote Access to work AND type numbers?

Active Sync Push password timer

Hello,
I have the HTC Touch Diamond with WM6.1. I love the phone but my exchange administrator has implemented password protection for my email account. So every hour my phone is locked until I enter the password. Does anyone know how to extend the time or disable the password in the registry. I have found several references to the registry setting in WM5 but that did not work so I am wondering if it is a different entry in WM6.1 Any ideas?

Can anyone help me with this?

This should work on WM6.1:
\hklm\security\policies\policies
Change value name "00001023" from '0' to '1'.
Or: http://cid-79cd30393341a619.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/WMSimulateKeyPress.zip
Or: http://www.modernnomads.info/wiki/i...ation+when+your+PocketPC+is+on+external+power
Or: http://mobilitytoday.com/forum/showthread.php?t=13030&page=2
Btw, think about it before you remove this policy. The sysadmin does not enforce this policy for nothing. I learned to live with it, it also has some advantages (for example when your device is stolen and you won't accidently push any buttons)

Thanks for the reply. the 3rd link which is Zen's program does not seem to work in WM6.1 in the Diamond. The registry entry definitely does not work because I have set it and reset the phone and it still locks. You have a point about why the password is there but it becomes a safety issue when I am driving and need to make a phone call. I am not sure what the Simulate Key press does could you provide any more information?
I am finding that with the HTC diamond alot of the customization has changed alot of the functions for the registry. I wish I could find someone that has figured all this out.

Upgrading from 6.1 to 6.5

I'll be honest, this is my first smart phone and I just got it 3 days ago. I've been online reading about this phone almost non-stop (even at work) and I want to make this phone my best friend. I've already done some experimenting: overclocking with omap, attempting to keep it OC'd with smartskey, installing SPB mobile shell on top of the rom, installing ringtones, installing galarm (but not figuring it out), installing resco in conjunction with smartskey in the attempt to keep the phone OC'd. I've read the wiki, I've read the upgrade installation sticky, I've searched, and I still can't find anyone with the same question that I have.
HOW CAN I UPGRADE FROM WM6.1 SNN EDITION TO WM6.5, OR TO ANY OTHER WM6.1 ROM?
I'm not sure if it's self explanatory and you can upgrade to 6.1 or 6.5 or back or whatever, but I can't tell. I'm really really new at all of this and I'm hoping to get a lot of nice people to help me fall in love with my phone. The main thing that confuses me about the whole ordeal is the fact that when I had received the phone it already had WM6.1 SNN Edition installed on it. I have no idea what that is, but I'm not a fan. I'd really like to know how to upgrade to a newer rom, if that's even possible.
So here' s a prioritized list of some things I want to do and any help for any of them would be greatly appreciated!
1. Upgrade to a newer, faster, over-all better ROM
2. Over clock it and keep it overclocked
3. Upgrade to the newest radio
Any help with any of these would be so greatly appreciated! I really want to help out this community by learning my way inside and out of this phone and all other phones I get in the future to help other people like myself fall in love with their phones!
Here's my phone's current info:

I just got a Cingular 8125 Wizard G4 given to me 3 days ago and this is the first smart phone I've ever had. I'm looking to upgrade it from this strange version of 6.1 that is running on it (SNN EDITION) to one of the 6.5 rom's on here, but I can't seem to find any information that tells me how to upgrade FROM 6.1 TO 6.5. It's all wm5 to 6.1 or 6.5. So far all I've done to this is install some things, uninstall some others, install SPB mobile 2.5 shell, uninstall SPB mobile 2.5 shell, try to get smartskey to work with omapclock, install galarm, overclock to 240 (but cannot get it to stay there after device turns off), install resco for better navigation, install ringtones, upload contacts from SIM. I know very little about cell phones and mobile technology, however I know very much about desktop computers. Essentially what I need help with to make my phone and I best friends are these few things:
1. Know if I can upgrade from 6.1 - 6.5 or how I can get to 6.5 (with some help)
2. Overclock the phone and keep it overclocked after it turns off.
3. Update the radio to 3.02.11 (already have the file just don't know all the rules to radio upgrades and if I should wait to get to 6.5 first or not)
Attempt to run android on the phone (not a priority)
I will truly appreciate all the help I get and I'll make sure to share the information that I acquire with others, and I plan on learning how to cook my own ROM, I'd just like a hand learning HOW to do the basics.
Thank you very much in advance!

Hi there and welcome.
First of all you have to know if your device is or not locked (yours seems to be locked)
then unlock, once its unlocked is very easy, download a ROM from here, the one you migth want to try (try, try and try until you find the rom to you) is very simple, just have to have a fully loaded battery and then flash it will take some mins.
Sometimes the flash bar (indicating the % on the flash way) gets "stuck" on 99 or 100% dont worry, it happens always, dont disconnect, unplug, or do something strange ok?
if still need help, i strongly suggest you to read "how to flash" , "how to unlock g4 devices"
Good luck

Here's an update. I have flashed to another ROM (I can't seem to find the page I located it on, hopefully my info in the signature will allow someone to tell ME what it is), I've flashed to the newest radio (3.02.11), and I've got it overclocked, but AGAIN it does not STAY overclocked when the screen goes dark or if I hit the power button (I don't know what mode that is called).
Here's what I've done to Overclock, please tell me if I've done something wrong.
I've copied OmapClock.exe, smartskey.exe, and smartskey.ini into the '/Windows' directory on the phone. Here's what my smartskey.ini file looks like:
; INI FILE MUST BE SAVED IN UNICODE, PLEASE USE NOTEPAD TO EDIT IT
