Hello,
does anyone know when the final version of W*M*2*0*0*3 will be released? And when it will be available to us? Was it released by Microsoft,yet?
I hope it will solve problems with memory card erasures and missing "More" tab in Phone Settings...
Thank you.
The "missing more tab" is merely missing because one does not need to change bands on 900/1800 phones: US versions will have this tab, I'm sure.
What I am not so sure about is how much pressure from the customers there is to bring WM2003 to this unit, with the XDA II coming and all.
probaly lots of pressure... but no inclination from the relevent(sp?) parties...
As if they would listen to us anyways? I mean we already know how *helpful* O2 are in the 'after care' department so what chance is there of them bringing out a rom?
From my experience of their compilation and testing of previous roms the development department must be VERY under funded as it is.
I think all 3 of them will be working overtime to prepare 2003 for the XDAII and wont really care about those that have already provided their cash...
one glimmer of hope I think is that the XDAII has the same rom size as the XDA... therefore will it be possible to 'borrow' the rom from that and put it in the XDA ? :twisted: .... or will they take 3 months of their project management to impliment restrictions and locks on the device... (time they could have spent porting it to the XDA)
I'm sure I'll prolly buy one... the pretty colours dazzle me.... but I hear Intel are planning a new Xscale cpu for 2004.... which is meant to be a lot better than this one... so will our brand new xdaII be dead as roadkill by the same time next year?
and I just had a thought.... the current XDAII cpu is an Xscale... and the XDA is a strongarm.... so there goes the 'borrowing' idea :?
yes I type while I think..
yes I dont delete text I decide is wrong before posting
XDA developer Peter Poelman:
I want the "More" tab to setup Cell Broadcast and auto pick-up - those settings were on this tab too.
ALL:
So you think that it'll be hard to get the final release? That defines a question - where is the kitchen rom from? It's a silly question, I know... But if you want to answer, send me an private message.
Thanx
Correction - If you want to give me an answer... :lol:
Sorry for my english...
It would appear that the version we have is OEM
the T-mobile branding I'm not so sure about maybe its a beta internal release inside T-mobile.
Remember though that just because they have it.... doesnt mean we will.
There is even a Apple OSX for Intel machines... Apple has currently no intentions of releasing it but does have 8 developers slowly working away
AOL for linux ? yes there was one..... but apart from the early beta which has since disapeared nobody has heard anything about it since.
Stranger things have happened (or have not as the case seems to be here)
Ok 2 things here. For the person wanting the "More" tab on the phone settings, which ROM version are you using? I am using 4.00.16, and it is in there. Perhaps this is not part of the ROM version, but depends on what radio stack is being used?
Secondly, I wouldn't be too surprised to at least see a T-Mobile release of WM 2003, but I also wouldn't guarantee it. They have released - ok not released - but a couple different betas have become "available" so we know they are working on it. I should say we know they were working on it. No telling now, as no new betas have appeared since June or July.
The person who wanted the "More" Tab was me I use 4.00.11 and don't want to install 4.00.16 until there will be a "clear" version without T-Mobile add-ons. The "More" tab must be part of the ROM because it is a part of system! I have radio stack 4.21. My boyfriend has the same version of radio stack, but PPC2002 and he has the "More" Tab.
About the new versions of those betas - maybe they have it better secured?

if you installed a based ROM, meaning no add-on software or not cook with the kitchen, there will be a more tab on you setting, but if you add some software to the ROM the setting for the more tab will be overiden, anyway you can still setup this thing in the registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel... the setting for keylock is there and also for the setting of automatic answer is there, just change the value.

And what about Cell Broadcast...?

Hi Guys,.
Is there such an app that would allow me to swap out my work sim to my own sim on an evening.
I.e. I would like an app that detects what operator sim I am using and automatically choose the correct profile for gprs, mms and sms.
Using Voda for work and O2 payg for personal.
a plugin would be nice that just swaps the operator setiings over.
I am not over bothered about having a dual sim as changing it over manually is easy enough. Just want an easy way to swap the connection settings over.
Just a footnote I recently re flashed to latest T-Mobile rom and needed to run an app that required Compact framework 2.0. It ran like a bag of Sh**e. Dropped back to the o2 rom and everything cool and groovy.
Answer my prayers brothers of the mobil revolution
SVP M2000
O2 1.40
O2 ext rom
O2 plus (its cool and groovy.

You are looking for a combination of a dual-SIM adapter and the Wivit SSS software.
The Dual SIM adapter holds two sims. The active SIM can be switched by switching off & on the GSM radio (or by going into and out of flight mode).
Just for this purpose SSS (see wivit.com) was developed. It lets you switch sims and show (on today) the active sim (by its phone number).
One thing: SSS is currently not reliable om WM5 (I have used it for more than a year on my Himalaya and am very confident.
Thanks for your reply
Had a quick play with this, however it only changes the operator. I need something that will auto detect the correct operator settings for GPRS MMS etc.
Not really bothered about running the 2 sims at the same time. ]

dw1991: to tell you the truth, the easiest way is just to carry a .cab file with the settings for each operator. One click and it's installed.
I keep one for Orange PAYG, one for O2 contract. I know you don't need it, but I use a cut dual sim on my Magician and never had any problems with this solution.
An autodetecting system could be written, but it'd be over-egging it a bit compared to 2 shortcuts to the .cabs, in a folder on your start menu.

Last year I discussed this with the Wivit guys. They planned switching active GPRS network settings linked to SIM switching in some next version of their SSS. Nother was released however since their first 1.0 build. (also i havent seen these guys on this forum for a long time). Pity
Re Cab files
I tried this solution also. Howeve when I double click the cab file on the device it dissappears. Do I have to copy these file across every time |I sync
This cab has some regedits in it that will prevent the .cab files from being deleted after you execute them.
making the CAB's readponly beforehand also solves this!
That's what I want to do!

Hi, vijay555!
I also use 2 SIM cards from different operators in my Excalibur / Dash / HTC S621 and I want to me cabs for changing the connection settings (gprs/mms/wap) more easily.
Can you help me doing that? I use brasilian operators VIVO and Claro (if you find easier making the cabs than explaining how to I can post the settings latter on )
BTW, I use one of the latest Ricky/Kavana 6.1 ROM.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers!
Hi every one ...1st time poster and short time reader
I have a Cingular 2125 and I love it ...but with the corporate discount I get I get 2 phone upgrades a year so as my 1st year was ending I decided to get the 8125.
So the question is
in the 2125 I was able to set the setting so that only people on my contact list could see my phone number .... I dont this option in the 8125, is it possible to download something that will add this feature ?
That sounds interesting.. Dont know if that exists.
I just block my caller id for everyone
it was like that on the mpx220 but not on the audiovox5600. which is werid cuz the 5600 is the old ver of the 2125, i got a mda and this option isnt avaiable. i wish i could also only allow calls that are in my contacts list like on my moto v360 ...miss this feature MUCH!
but to anwser ur question no there is no way to do it unless u edit ur contacts and put *67 to block or *82 to unblock
yeah my phone history is
Smt 5600
2125
8125
the 5600 and the 2125 have that feature ...but its does not in the 8125 which really sucks ...
Sorry if this may be inaproriate to ask
but I have seen post about people making custom/moded roms for the 8125 where you flash it and stuff ...was wondering if making one would allow this option ?
Any way to have this fetaure put in a future offical update ?
okay I am going to venture out in my quest ot get this feature and useing a registry tweak ap called total commander I am going to try to look at all the registry entries that deal with this ... I still got my 2125 so I got something to compare to ...so lets hope for the best ...if all else I think I may pay some one to wrote a script or find the setting for me

Even if there is a Registry setting the Dialer Application is the workhorse for this so just adding the setting does nothing unless you also replace the dialer app on your wizard with one (say from the 2125) that pays attention to that setting.
kyphur u bring up an intresting point ...and I am guessing that the 2125 dial application is not compatible with the 8125...humm maybe back to sqaure 1 ...i wonder if the next version of the wizard will have this featuer.

I doubt it would work simply because of the differences in the devices. I don't think the 2125 has a touch screen and the 8125 lacks a numeric keypad.
once again ur right ...humm I wonder if any of the other touch screens has this ... I might just sell my 8125 and get an unlocked SDA from tmobile since I was at the tmobile store today and found the setting on that ( but not hte MDA) its defenitly something HTC puts in the phone ...I wonder why they take out such great features in some phones and put them in other phones ...HTC if you read this post ...PUT this feature back in ! tehehe
caller id to contacts only
yea i have the feature on my htc p3450 (touch) but it doens't work. i was going to post something about this, but i caught this thread. i have the same experiance though my audiovox 5600 caller id to contacts only works, my torq n100 didn't and neither does my htc touch. so if anyone could add some input it would be appreciated.
just a couple of notes
audiovox 5600 originally an att phone unlocked and used with cingular and tmobile the caller id works fine.
torq n100 unlock device bought online, but the caller id feature does not
htc touch unlock device bought online, but the caller id feature does not
thanks
I am a noob so please don't jump all over me if it do this wrong or post in the wrong place. That being said and out of the way:
I am living in korea and bought my X1 a few days ago. I don't read korean to well so i flashed an english rom to it. Everything seems to work fine except the messageing service. I can send sms out but i can't get any responces.
I know that SKT uses it's own sms service or something like that...
So my question is: Is there a way to change only the language of the OS and leave eveything else the same?
I would like to keep the stuff that came with the Korean rom (sms service, korean dictionary the panels, etc.) just put the OS in english.
I'm in the same boat and I'd be much obliged if you could say what you found out, or if anyone else can offer some advice.
I bought the X1 in Korea. I love the phone, but like a lot of people here, I wanted an English language ROM. The problem is, like both of you guys have stated, MS-SMS doesn't work properly here. Sending works fine, but you cannot receive any messages.
After a lot of fiddling around, I think the problem has to do with the rilphone.dll file in the Windows directory. The solution is to extract the rilphone.dll file from the stock KOREAN rom and overwrite the file in the English rom. The problem with this is that with most of the downloadable custom roms, once you replace the file, the phone radio stops working, and you get no service at all. Perhaps the solution is to build a custom ROM and cook the rilphone.dll file from the Korean ROM into the custom ROM, but I don't have the skills or time to do it.
I actually got it working on a very old custom ROM, but the ROM itself was buggy and crappy so I ditched it. I think just overwriting the file in the old ROM worked because it didn't have any signed cert built in.
Anyway, I would also love to be able to solve this problem. I actually can read Korean, but the Korean ROM is super bloated with SK Telecom's crappy software and it is very slow.
EDIT: I would even be willing to pay someone a reasonable amount of money to solve this problem. I can provide the Korean rilphone.dll file too!
Does anyone have any advice??? Please???
Honestly I would pay as well. From what I can tell, the most "advanced" phones over here are the Xperia, the Omnia, and the Haptic 2. I can only assume the Omnia will have the exact same problems as the Xperia (being another WinMo phone) and I'm not really eager about the Haptic 2 since I can't seem to find any information at all about it (reviews, forums, addons, extensions, etc etc etc).
I misspoke earlier when I said I was in the same boat; I haven't yet bought a phone, but I'm in the market. I was just at a few shops yesterday messing around with these phones. And not being able to receive texts is (or alternately, not having an English OS) is a deal breaker.
I had this problem as well, except mine was receiving chinese text messages. What you have to do is go into the sms area and click Tools>Options.
It takes you to the screen with all your accounts. Tap on the SMS/MMS and you should check the "use unicode when necessary" box.
That's how I solved that problem
Unfortunately, with the current OS and SK Telecom network, the solution is not that simple. There is a group of Korean guys at a Korean Xperia forum working feverishly to solve this problem, and I understand they have made some progress. But the fix is still a long way off. The people here are probably more experienced and skilled at WinMo.
Yeah, Koream carriers have been deploying their own proprietary text mechanisms.
Long story short, there is a way you can use a cooked ROM with some helps from local hackers. It's a project to incorportate local carrier's structure into the old, good, usual MS-SMS.
http://cafe.naver.com/bjphone/232334
1. delete mms_filter.lnk from your startup folder
2. apply x1-mssms.cab
That's it.

Thanks for that link and the info. Does that mean that I can flash a custom English ROM, apply those two steps and be able to send and receive SMS in Korea?
SMS problem in Korea
Hi guys,
I found out this problem after i bought the X1 and changed the ROM to english, to sum up i am in the **** as you....
I am also ready to pay a reasonnable money to whom will find a solution to this problem. Friends sent me so many messages but they are still waiting for my reply...hehe
Please write me if any news, i am still searching on french, korean and english websites...
Thanks!
Korea is a great country, and very technologically advanced. But they seem to make it very difficult for foreigners. In the process, they also unintentionally make it difficult for their own citizens, because most Koreans I know would prefer to use MS-SMS over the crappy, slow, bloated SKT application.
In my case, I don't even need to be able to send SMS in Korean, although that would be great. As long as I could send English SMS, and receive and read English and Korean SMS, that would be fine. I'm hoping there will be a solution to this stupid problem soon.
Other than this issue, however, I love the X1. I recently bought an Omnia and it was OK, but when I found out the X1 was released in Korea, I ditched the Omnia immediately and bought the X1
Correct. I applied it today and am quite happy with it.
Please note it's still beta though.

Thanks for the response. Could you tell me which ROM you installed?
I'm still using the factory ROM, only changed SKT-SMS with MS one.
Other people who cooked their own ROM seemed to be okay.

Oh my God!! It worked! Thank you very much. There are still some bugs, but the functionality is there, so that's all I can ask for now.
Palmwangja, 감사합니다!
Unfortunately, although I can receive messages now, the characters are all square blocks, even with the Unicode setting checked. Any ideas?
EDIT: Just not working right. Even after installing Korean language support, for some strange reason, if someone sends me an SMS in English, I can receive the message but I get the square blocks as text. Can't receive Korean messages at all. Back to square one.
Can someone please upload x1-mssms.cab to rapidshare or email it to me?
I can't seem to login to the Naver board to download the file...I would really appreciate it!
UPDATE 1: Got the file. Thanks anyway. We'll see how the install goes. About to run on stock Korean ROM.
UPDATE 2: Seems to work fine on stock Korean ROM. Haven't tried MMS yet. The author of this hack appears to have posted a list of bugs with this first beta (including possible problems when sending/receiving messages while roaming) and indicates that he will post a second beta (which will probably be the final) soon.

The hack works fine on the stock Korean ROM. I tried it. I want to use MS-SMS, but the more important thing for me is using an English ROM. The hack doesn't work correctly in the English ROM, even after hacking the registry, linking fonts, etc. I can read Korean fine, but the Korean ROM really sucks. It is just slow and bloated.

Rogatsby, this is a pared-down Korean ROM...
Hope you will like it. quite fast, no additional garbage. ms-sms hack works greatly.
I'm a HTC Trophy CDMA user in China,The phone can not send Chinese SMS,but the English SMS is correct.How to solve this problem?3Q.
When Use CDMA,I send Chinese SMS is correct,but the other who received is incorrect.
It's all right when use WCDMA.
Install from marketplace connection setup and run it.
Connection Setup will help, but you need to install Chinese language support. DFT is testing a Freedom rom for CDMA/Verizon Trophy (codename SparkW). This rom has built in support for Chinese language, and may help you.
Another option is to install the Chinese language .cab files. This might give you Chinese input for SMS (I do not know how to do this, however).
If you are interest in testing the beta Freedom rom for Verzion Trophy, you need to private message user mwang on this forum. You will also need to install HSPL on your phone so you can install this rom image.
If you need to install HSPL on your phone, DFT's official website may be a better place for you to look for information (since it is in Chinese). Ask any questions you have about your SparkW phone in this forum. If you tell them your problem, they might be able to help you better (plus you won't need to talk in English ).
Actually, I have run into this problem also. It seems that Windows Phone simply does not support unicode characters in SMS in CDMA mode. When I switch my phone to GSM mode and start typing an SMS with unicode characters, it shows the correct limit of 70 characters. Changing the phone back to CDMA and typing an SMS with unicode shows an incorrect limit of 160 characters.
If anyone has any further insight on this, I would love to hear it. Especially frustrating, since I am on Verizon, so obviously stuck with CDMA. Even more frustrating is the fact that it worked fine on my old Windows Mobile...
Weird? So Verizon supported SMS correctly with Chinese characters before, and it works fine with GSM? That is odd. Maybe I'll switch to Chinese or Japanese and see if those languages have issues too. I wonder if the DFT rom is having this issue too?
It quite possibly could be an issue with Verizon's operator package too. Do GoldC users have this problem?
Well, in my case I am using Ukrainian, not Chinese, but yes, it worked fine on my old phone. I haven't actually tested sending the message via GSM, since I don't have a SIM card handy, but it shows the correct limit, which implies that it will work correctly. And on top of that I can receive messages in Ukrainian from other people just fine.
I'm starting to think that perhaps Verizon disabled this in their radio for the Trophy? Is that possible?
It could also be a side affect of the phone being a "world phone" and only allowing certain functions while using GSM. SMS is standardized, so it could work fine in CDMA mode. What mode is your phone in?
We know it gives two-byte characters the correct limit in GSM mode, but is this an issue only in CDMA mode, or went set to "Global" or both?
I usually leave the phone in CDMA mode, but I did some testing and this same behavior also occurs in Global mode. I have to explicitly set it to GSM for it to give me the correct character limit.
I wonder if this is Mango issue or just some silly settings issue. The HTC Arrive is a CDMA only phone, so I wonder if it has this same issue. I know they are having some sort or SMS issues too.. so it may be related to CDMA+SMS period. :/
I've tried a number of methods, such as modifying the registry, add some value,like HKLM_MIME_CODEPAGE, but still can't solve the problem. All normal GSM, CDMA is not working properly.
Perhaps this issue would be better off being posted on MSDN, to see if its a general issue, or something stupid that all CDMA carriers are overlooking.
I will be more than happy to post it to MSDN, but I'm just not sure where exactly to post it. The Windows Phone developer forums? Those seem to be geared towards application developers. I presume this would be something that concerns radio developers? So perhaps going through HTC?
I'm not that familiar with all of this to this detail, so any thoughts on how I can further pursue this are most welcome.
FYI - there is no change in behavior regarding this issue after installing the recent firmware update, based on my tests.
Well, I finally contacted HTC support about this issue, and I got the following reply:
Thank you for patiently waiting while we found the information you needed about the unicode characters being sent through text messages. There will be an update that will come out for your phone very soon that should remedy this issue.

It's good at they are at least aware of it now. I hope the update comes soon!
Perhaps not too surprising, but the HTC update that came out today did not fix this problem - hopefully the next one!
