I changed to WM 6.5 last night. I had the AT&T 6.1 rom before.
With both ROMs, my camera is just black. Doesn't show anything at all (not even darkly.
Any ideas? It's probably not software if it doesn't change when I update the ROM right?
I don't care for 6.5 much, so I'm going to try another 6.1 rom in a minute...
Thanks
Your radio ROM is incorrect for whatever hardware/ROM revision you are using. Experiment around with different radios until you get one that allows your camera to work.
Nice of you to search for the oldest problem out there.

Thanks. Its been awhile since I played with a Windows Mobile phone, so I'm a little rusty. I forgot that some software stayed even when the OS was changed... geee... so simple

Thanks for the advice. I'll just assume in the future that if I search and find nothing, that I must have used the wrong terms, and shouldn't bother asking in the future. Glad you saved me.
I did search. Now, when I searched "radio rom camera problem" (after the 1st response) I got tons of hits. When I searched "8925 camera is black only" I got nothing relevant. It's new to me.
Well, oddly enough, I encountered a much more serious problem with the ROM I was using, so I went back to 6.1 (I don't like 6.5 for some reason)
After loading the AT&T 6.1 rom, the camera works...
Thats because the ATT ROM has an included radio, which evidentally is one that works with your hardware revision and enables the camera.

Ok- So Radio rom can be flashed with or without the OS rom? Good to know.
The radio rom has to match the hardware? Or the OS?
I'd like to give the WM6.5 rom another try, if I can get everything to work

Believe me, I know
I've got so many XDA threads open in tabs that I'm surprised it'll let me open more
Alot of the stuff I'm reading I'm remembering some of... it's been along time... lots of "oh yeah...!" moments... I want to be making my own roms in no time.. I guess I'm a few years late to the party... sad that they are killing Windows Mobile...

A couple years late to the Kaiser party, but I still love my Kaiser and it my not be as flashy and my be a tick slower and may not have the spacious screen that the HD2 has, but with a custom rom and a little tweaking, it does everything An HD2 does, and I love my keyboard.
Windows Mobile isn't dead, it was just taking a long vacation while Steve and Bill and the others were playing the " fat cat " billionaire roles to the hilt while the company went down the toilet.
Hopefully Windows Phone 7 series is the start of a resurgence that will integrate Windows, Windows Mobile, Zune OS and XBox into a fully integrated powerhouse, before it is too late.
Maybe Apple overtaking them is exactly what they need.

It was also on the rom flashing tutorial
7. After I flash a Rom I dont have any sound in calls and the camera is black
The Radio has to match the version of Rom you flash i.e. WM6.1, an incorrect Radio will give sound and camera problems. Read The Ultimate Radio Thread to find a Radio that matches the Rom there are lots to try on there if one doesnt work then try another.

Being no stranger to flashing roms on any of the dozen WM devices I've had over the years, I didn't bother to read a tutorial.
The only reason I ran in here and asked, was I recieved the phone in the mail that day. I needed to know if I needed to send it back.
Now, I need to go get back to fixing my 8525 for the misses....

Is this one of the clean roms or one of the PDAVIET roms? What all is in this rom? I tried Orwell's rom and PDAVIET's, I am not really satisfied with either of them, too many bugs for me.
You can find what you want by googling the name of the known versions...... like viet.... or (you get it)

I have taken to powering down the phone for the night and guess what..no problems. Even if you leave the phone on 24/7 you should still reset once a day shoot I do it to my workstation everyday before I leave work why should the phone be any different.
Kirby
or you can just put a decent rom lime Molski`s and never reboot... it depends wether you want to use your PPC or experiment.
I admint, i also cannot hold myself and at least once a week i put some new rom and fight with it...
wm6
i have installed the final aku 2.3 from molski.
on top of that i installed the clean aku 3.0 (aka xbow)
it is running very very smooth.
installed this configuration on 4 other wizard and all off them work perfect.
Somehow the original request has been lost. You can find the files by google for the following.
1. PDA and a place of war in Asia
2. The last name of the author of animal farm + the year of the appl2 2c.
Have fun

Luxury! We used to dream of flashing once a week!
And, as nice as Marc's ROM's are, one has to reboot. Actually I think that not reseting your PDA daily, as your PC, is silly. But that's just me. (who makes money from people that don't want to reboot their PC )

This is directly from the dload link page:
"
This software update provides:
Enhanced Bluetooth performance.
Enables DTMF tones for the slide-out QWERTY keyboard.
Improves overall device performance and stability.
Includes Microsoft Adaptation Kit Update (AKU) 0.4.4. "
To me, I never noticed a bluetooth issue to begin with, but seems o.k.
and the part about "device performance and stability" seems good.
again this title of this thread should read att tilt rom pdate not htc kaiser update since i am pretty sure everyone thought an update to the actual htc branded kaiser variant!!

I don't understand, I am connected wi-fi and am using bluetooth to listen to tunes, no problem. If you mean something to do with tethering and bluetooh, not sure about that.
edit-maybe you are referring to it stopping for a split second if you try to surf?
yup, still get that.
I was so excited to see this until I checked my ROM version and saw that I was already running it. I've had my Tilt for about a month now. Go figure.
Edit: I was looking at the screenshot!! This is a new ROM!

I am hesitant to get the new rom because I dont feel like re-installing / configuring everything. However...enhanced BlueTooth performance? Anyone know if this fixes the Bluetooth issues with Infiniti / Nissan vehicles? I'm gonna have to take the plunge if it does
I flashed my device and just finished installing software.
My device is noticeably snappier. Windows draw quicker and my videos play a bit better. Not a ton, but enough to notice.
It's likely because of doing a reset on it though.
I'll test it for a couple days and post my findings.
Bluetooth seems louder though.

I'm not sure I understand this. Are you saying that the screen shot on that link is NOT the version to be downloaded? If that's the case that sure is misleading.
I have the exact version on the screen shot.
downloading now..radio says 14.09R2 like they upgraded the radio...we will see. im pretty happy with 6.1
On the other thread on this topic, the version confusion is pointed out. The very first sentence says it is 1.062...somethign or other.
The print screen is very misleading. Right where it talks about be sure you aren't using the same version you are downloading, and they have a print screen you would think that is of the new version to compare your version to. But it isn't.
Anyway if you are the version that shows in the print screen this is a newer version.

No it doesn't. I did not see any improvement on 2007 Infiniti G35x.
I've certainly seen an improvement in performance of my phone, but I'm with the post above in that the reset itself is probably partly to thank. This time around windows mobile wasn't new to me so I did everything the way I wanted the first time.
What can I do with this phone other then what it does out of the box?
Theres so little information and work I can find on it.
hey buddy,
there isnt alot of things that can be done with the phone right now.. which company do u have it from?
the first would be App Unlock your phone to be able to install applications .. jsut search on google "app unlock S620" and follow that procedure...
I have a wm6.0 running so i have a couple of skins and stuff installed... most of the stuff that can work on the Vox Forums can work on libra as well. besides the roms ofcourse.
if you got any other questions holla for sure... i know it was a pain for me to find any information on the phone!

surprised me too! the poor phone still doesn't have enough ram and is missing wifi, otherwise it would be perfect.
I just picked up one of these phones yesterday and am still getting used to not having a touch screen. If I'm not mistaken this phone does have the GPS. What's the process for getting it to work with Google Maps, etc?
Thanks
no this phone doesnt have gps....
it has the processor which is needed to have gps... but apparently it doesnt work with any company...
iv looked around for a fix .. but no one has found out one...
and 5800 doesnt have wifi built in either

You can use any ROM as long as you are Hard-SPL'd and regards Radio it will come down to many variables and only you will be able to find best ROM/Radio combo..

Wouldn't it be great if one could just indicate where they need the phone to work, and a list of radios could be listed for that location?

Ain't that the truth, funny thing is that all of the radios I have flashed work in my area. Even the japanese one, just some better than others.
Hi
I try to unlock the phone with JumpSPL 1.56, 1.93, and 1.94, and Kaiser-HardSPL-3.56 and 3.29, and the phone don't install anything. It could be that my phone is refurbish?? What other options do I have?
I here you. Just so you know and are prepared. I have been flashing for 1 month straight and I cant get my phone to stay connected with anything other than the stock ROM. Not sure why but be prepared for a long battle. I have almost every radio available. Works for a day then dropped calls and network over and over.
I have a refurb and flash all the time. Follow instructions carefully and refer to sticky and wicki for help.

All of them work for a limited time in my area. Then after about 24-48 hours I have trouble with all.
Its frustrating!
Ok, I'm getting tired of my apps requiring GPS. How do I get it running on Verizon? I have the Alltel Vogue, ran their stock ROM before running Coke and flashing to various Android builds, running Super Froyo RLS1(soon RLS2). Sorry for the stupid question, but what is the simplest way to do this. I am pretty fluent in the computer.
If your fluent in computer why didn't you think to read the frequently asked questions??? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=628353 Post 2 Question 12 i have it running fantasticly different nbh files and diferent android versions provide different quality. basicly you install old version coke install sprint stock rom then new version of coke install newest verizon rom then install newest radio then a custom wm rom then flash android and never let any stock roms customize the phone.
You have to be kidding me. This is the only way to get gps? I think I'd rather cut my balls off before embarking on this tedious journey... Wish there was a quick fix :/ There go my hopes of having gps.

Good luck. I did it a while back and had GPS working for about a month.....then without ever flashing the GPS Killer-Verizon Rom, it just stopped working. I tried everything to get it back....with no luck.

After performing the Verizon GPS fix, search the forum for 'service programming apk'. The thread where that got posted had some great info. I get GPS locks, on Verizon, in 30 seconds or less out in the car. Indoors is another story, of course.
Too bad this process couldn't be somehow scripted. The length of the process and the iffy results is what is keeping me from trying as well.
