No phone or contacts on WM6.1 - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi, I have just upgraded an G4 to Tomal's 8.2 WM6.1 (to whom great thanks) and have an interesting problem whereby I don't have phone or a contacts list. I have data, can send text but no incoming or outgoing calls. The dialling phone gets a ring but the Uni does nothing.
When I try to activate the phone applet in any way or activate the contacts list, nada, nish. You can see that the keypress is being registed but it's like there is no instruction associated with the keypress.
What is slightly annoying is that I rushed in and upgraded before checking in WM5 and I don't really want to downgrade just to check it.
I only flashed the new rom and didn't CID/SIM unlock.
As always, views and ideas gratefully received.

Sorted
For anyone else upgrading to WM6.1 (Tomal's) on a G4 I'd be intrerested to see if you get this problem. It is when the REALVGA applet is installed and running 128DPI. Oddly the problem dissapears if you remove the applet and the 96DPI packs when running at 128.

Displaying problem with the new iMate rom

Guys I install the 1.72 rom from the iMate site. (official release)
When a call comes in normally you see the number and when it's a contact you'll see the name (company name, etc)
but after upgrading to the new rom when someone calls I only see the number but after a few seconds delay I will see the name (company name etc)..
Does someone have the same problem?
Does someone have a solution for this?
Thanks
Panja
Can someone please clear my mind a little
tnx
I think I noticed the same thing in here.
I had the same problem with 1.66WWE at times.
Try making sure you don't use an app. to close open programs (i.e Battery Pack/Pocket Plus), I found that helped - maybe something is getting relaunched and causing the delay (IA Caller ID?)?
Phil
I am using the new ROM 1.72 (and SPB Pocket Plus) and do not have this problem. The number AND name pop up almost instantaneously.
I actually meant, if you use PocketPlus, try to configure it not to close IA_CallerID, but I don't think it happens on 1.72 (on 1.66WWE PocketPlus could close CallerID).

Changing WM5 notification settings

Hello Everyone,
I am new to the board and I have been searching for an answer to a problem with WM5 that I cannot find. We use our devices, I-Mate JasJar's and I-Mate K-Jam's, to receive Pushed email, Text messages, phone calls...etc.
One of the main featues that I need, although small, is to be able to set WM5 notifications for new text messages or emails to repeat. The setting is subdued, whereas some other notifications give you the option to repeat the alert. I feel like this should be up to the user to decide whether to use it or not...no microsoft...:x
Anyway, is this a possible registry hack or an update that i don't know about?
Thanks for any help you may be able to give.
this is killing me
I have tried everything I can think of...i downloaded a registry editor and modified the registry under notifications under HKCU...i was able to make the "Repeat" function available for use for a NEw Text Message...but it wouldn't repeat...nothing i did would make it repeat...this sux..
Anybody have any ideas yet....thanks...
Yes! It's crazy that you can't set notifications to repeat and "bug" you! My wife's Motorola V3 RAZR phone does this for every text message / voice mail. Very annoying - but also very useful!
PocketMax "phoneAlarm does exactly what you want. An official version for WM5 is not quite ready, but there is a beta version which seems to work, hidden away in the support forums:

Hope this helps!

Help with O2 SMS Plus

I have installed O2 SMS Plus and the patch. I can send sms successfully , however the replies made by the person only show in my inbox, the don't show in O2 sms plus at all! Does someone have a fix for this? Any help would be great as i'm dying for this program to work!
Are you sure?
You do not need a patch I think, only one cab is doing well. (but O2Plus needs a patch)
Which version of "SMS+" is yours? Try this it works well at least for me :wink:
will this work for my MDA US (tmobile)?
Give it a try. Won't lose anything.
8)
That was the same program that I had before, I have removed it, and re-installed it several times, but to no avail....I can send sms from it perfect...but everyone who replies to me, the sms go straight to the normal inbox and don't even show in the os sms plus program. I have read numerous posts of people who have it running fine, I just don't understand why I can't get the damn program to work right!
don't know if this has any bearing, but....
maybe you have spb pocket plus or a similar app running, and did not include o2smsplus.exe in the exceptions list (only tmail.exe)?
I've noticed that O2 SMS Plus V1.2 (01060606) is the latest version of O2 SMS Plus
Anybody got a change to see what's different? Except from the numbers of course
where can one download 1.2?
The only thing that I have running that I could think would cause a problem would be pocketbreeze, do you tink that disabling this would help?
When you use O2 SMS Plus you have to close your standard Inbox.
Did you do this?
I also use PocketBreeze, and O2 SMS Plus works fine..
Were you able to get SMS Plus to be the default application?

My messaging program is not running, is there another way to close my inbox? I just don't have it open, maybe I am not doing something right....how do I go about actually closing my inbox?
You should be able to close it when you go to:
Start -> Settings -> System -> Memory-> Active Programs
But when you don't use a program with Task Manager, like MagicButton, vBar, PocketPlus etc. Then I believe it should close the Inbox without the use of any extra program
[edit]
I've noticed that you use PocketPlus. You can just tap on the top right. You should be able to see the Inbox in the running programms. Just press the X to close it.
[/edit]
Have you tried the version attached in the second post?
Humm, where to download version 1.2 again? :twisted:
I tried the version in the second post...still same problem ....
1.2 isn't available for download.. ..it's part of the O2 Atom Exec ROM
i see. and whats new in 1.2 compared to 1.1?

No Email or SMS Notification on iPAQ 614c with WM6.1

Recently I flashed my 614c with Yevg001s current stable Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM, 20270 v1.4 rev1.2 Standard, as I did not want the Manilla 2D.
I have since been having trouble with the notifications on the device, which I thought were due to having Slide 2 Unlock (S2U2) installed.
I removed that program today and have soft reset my device, but I still get NO Notifications for new Emails.
I have 3 email accounts set up on my device, all IMAP, set up to check every 60 minutes and use the GPRS/EDGE connection.
In the system settings, the notifications are set to play a sound, display a message, flash a light for no limit AND vibrate. All possible notifications.
The same is true for the SMS message notification settings, they are identical.
My device is set to go into standby after 1 minute, as it always has been, and locks the device at this time, using a simple 4 digit PIN through Windows Mobile.
On Windows Mobile 6, it was set up the same, although without the Email accounts, and when I received a new SMS, the device would wake up and display a message, and after 1 minute go into standby again.
With Windows Mobile 6.1, I am not getting any of these notifications, I do not even get a Message Icon along the top of the screen for either a new SMS or Email message. The device does not wake up and display any message, it does not vibrate and the notification LED never flashes orange.
Missed call notifications work perfectly! Upon receiving a call, my device wakes up, displays the number of the person calling. If I do not answer, it becomes a Missed Call, the notification LED blinks orange, and permanently blinks orange until I unlock my device and clear the notification.
Is this because there has been a conflict with settings for S2U2 which are still in the registry causing problems?
Or is this a more fundamental problem with Yevg001s Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM that I am now using?
Please help, I would really like to be notified when I receive ANY new message, either SMS or Email, with an icon on the screen, a vibration and the notification LED blinking orange!
If I need to change any registry settings that's fine, but I would rather not reflash my device again unless absolutely necessary!
Thanks,
DW
This is really, really odd. I'm using exactly the same ROM and I get my notifications just fine, though I've never installed S2U2 on this device. Did you restore any registry settings that you made before you flashed the new ROM? Did the notifications ever work, or did they stop working at some point after flashing your 614c?
It turns out it is because I had edited the registry to remove Outlook Email from my message inbox list using the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368812
I hadn't ready the entire topic, so I hadn't realised it could cause problems with the notifications.
I have since replaced the registry entries I deleted, and all notifications work fine again, even with using S2U2, although having it set to Lock when Backlight Turns off does cause some problems, so I just don't use that setting.
Thanks,
DW
Hi May I know where can I get the said ROM "Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM, 20270 v1.4 rev1.2 Standard"? Please let me have the link to download.
Thanks.
If you read this forum post, it has many links to the new ROMs and where you can find them: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425536
DW
Yep I read them, and I also have downloaded all the ROMs available at the given site: "http://matrixmen.free.fr/pocket/ipaq/roms/", but seems like it doesn't have this ROM: "Yevg001's WM 6.1 20270 1.4 Rev 1.2 Standard" in it right? :s
Are you using that ROM too?

Check Zoltair Wright's post made today. He gives the download links to both the Standard and Manilla 2D versions of Yevg001s WM6.1 20270 v1.4 rev1.2 ROM.
It is the top post on page 20, here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425536&page=20
Hope this is what you need. I have been running the Standard 20270 ROM now for a couple of weeks trying it out, and can't find anything wrong with it, it all works fine.
DW.
Roger that. Actually that's my latest installed ROM on my 612c, didn't know that it was what I looked for lol. Coz of the version I checked was 1.3.1 not 1.4, and still don't know why it was referred as 1.4 :s mmm....

CallerID, SMS ID, updated ROM,Solution??

Hi,
I realize this could be posted in a number of forums. I too have had persistent problems with caller and SMS ID on my TD2. I have read and googled extensively and tried various registry edits, hard resets, soft resets...
A couple of days ago I emailed HTC, see below...
"Inquiry Description Hi, Can you please tell me how to organise contact numbers on my touch diamond 2 so that caller id and sms id BOTH work. I have spent many hours googling and trying out various formats and CALLERID registry settings with no success. This would seem to be a fundamental basic of a mobile phone and is causing me no end of frustration. many thanks David

Hello David,
have you installed the latest ROM image available on the HTC website? I am assured that will resolve the issue you describe. Thank you for contacting HTC Europe."
I hadn't as the blurb seemed to indicate that it was a fix for stock info for which I have no use. So I flashed it and....so far.... the caller ID and SMS ID seem to be working fine!!
So if that problem is solved has anyone a solution to the TD2 not receiving business cards sent from a Nokia as an SMS??

Business cards from Nokia have another format then the businesscards from Windows.
Connect your Nokia through PcSuite (from Nokia) and sync your contacts to Outlook on your PC, then they will be converted for Windows (and Mobile).
Then connect your WM phone with Active Sync 4.5 (2000/XP) or Windows Mobile Device Center (Vista/Win7) and sync them back on your phone.

it can be set lower, even to 5, but this way it will recognize by 5 last digits and this will cause to wrong recognitions if you have similar ending numbers.
it need to be set as number of digits in your country minus 1 meaning without the zero so if it recognizes with country code it will work even if numbers saved without country codes.
Hi,
I had tried changing the registry setting but could not get the phone to id both caller and sms. From EXTENSIVE reading of threads on this forum and numerous other forums it would appear that the reg change does not solve the problem for all. It is possible that it was the hard reset that solved the problem and not the ROM upgrade but curious that HTC recommend the upgrade.
I also got the impression that sometimes numbers saved to contacts via TouchFlo did not get saved while those saved via WM contacts were.
vCard has sorted my business card issue. Intercepts incoming sms cards and manages them. I found this fix here on XDA also.
Finally happy with my TD2 and its ability to manage 5000+contacts.

it will not fix sms & calls received until registry changed only for new ones.
I had the same problem when i first got my TD2, i gues it was in june, i called HTC support, they just adviced me to reset the phone, in configuration of windows mobile then under the tab system, in dutch it called "opslag wissen" i guess in english somehting like clear memory? note you lose everything, but in my case it solved the problem, bit wierd how but after no problems any more good luck
I had the similar issue with my stock ROM, after searching, trying and trying I had it fixed by copying all the contacts to SIM, delete the contacts on the device and copy the contacts back from SIM to device.
IMHO, I think the problem was because there were different "formats" stored initially in the device (last name, first name, business card etc) and by copying to SIM card all the formats then reformatted (but later need to adjust them after copying back to the device).
Note that SIM cards only have less capacity than the device to hold the contacts.
Cheers,
