Confirm KJAM bugs?

Can anyone else confirm these bugs I'm seeing?
ROM: 1.1.9.3
Radio: 01.01.10
ExtROM: 1.1.9.104
1. I've got a 1Gb Sandisk MiniSD inside with a ton of WMA files that synced over through Media Center 2005. If I'm playing them through Media Player 10.1, then stop and shut off the device for a while, when I turn back on.. Media Player doesn't remember what song it was at, and doesn't seem to recognize the library/playlist until I reselect it in the Library view. Has anyone else seen this happen?
2. On the Today screen I have a big triangle icon in the title bar that normally means I've registered on a GSM network. With previous Windows Mobile versions, it just shows up when registration is made and then goes away. For me it won't go away.
3. Sending MMS Messages on T-Mobile USA does not work. I have entered all the correct settings that worked with previous versions of MMS composer, but the MMS won't send. Has anyone found a registry edit or something to fix this?
4. MMS composer does not support soft keys. This is an obvious application bug. It looks so stupid having old legacy menus in the new Windows Mobile 5 Inbox application.
5. Connections don't show up in the Connectivity bubble on the title bar icon. I have a T-Mobile USA GPRS connection set up in the connections control panel, but it doesn't show up in the Connectivity bubble unless it's connected. There's a disconnect button when it's connected, but no connect button when not.
6. Skype doesn't launch. I've done a hard reset, and the default installation of Skype does not open at all.
7. Power control panel doesn't support moving between tabs using the Directional Button.
8. No way to set the device to complete power off mode.
9. PhonePad SIP occasionally will not open. SIP reverts back to previously used SIP method.
10. Can't navigate between levels in Media Player 10 Library mode.
I think the first 5 are the most important to me. Please feel free to add other bugs to this list.

Nobody else sees any of these problems?
I figured out #3 and #8.
I'm also seeing occasional phone problems, like not updating the reception level in dead spots and taking much longer to re-register on the network after leaving a dead spot.
Soft resetting takes way too long as well.

can only answer the non-local questions (i'm in the uk)
and havn't tried all you are talking about.
media player does not remember where you were,
skype does work for me,
can turn the unit completely off.
i know that is only 3 from your list, but it is a start.

to turn the device off completly you need to hold the power button down until a message comes on the display then click ok and it will power off. to switch it back on hold the power button down until it comes back on

I had a devil of a time getting MMS to work on TMO USA. Finally someone on HoFo PPC Forum suggested that I use the T-Mobile USA Settings .cab file on Club iMate under Wizard Support, Operator Settings. This did not work the first time but after a hard reset, I installed this .cab first thing and then MMS worked with no more problems so far.
The No Conections thing is my biggest beef with the Wizard as I have several apps that will not initiate a GPRS connection under WM5. Having to start PIE to establish a connection is just plain stupid. They should have put a GPRS button in Connection Manager instead of an Active Sync button. At least you can end a GPRS connection by holding down the End button for about 5 secs.
Hope this helps.

Forget to mention about Softkeys support. I hope what you mention is simply an oversight on the part of the app developer. I hope that as apps get upgraded to WM5 and as new apps get written that developers will pay attention and allow softkey and d-pad access to menus, exit button, etc. I personally hate to have to pull out and fumble with a stylus, especially to do one simple thing on an app that could have provided d-pad support.

wanna to know before buy
how about the camera quality? any chance if anyone kindly post some demo pic taken by Wizard....
Also the CPU performance is that fast? whether Skype in the default installed out of the factory?

I think that the camera quality is about equivalent to the Treo 650, better than the Jam or Eten 500. But I haven't used it enough to check out all its features.
The CPU performance is adequate with a small number of apps running - not as crisp feeling or nearly as fast as my Samsung i730 which is the fastest PPC I have used to date. However, the battery life is very good - much better than the 730. I think that the KJAM is a nice trade off between performance and battery life.
Skype is included in ROM from the factory. I know nothing about it as I deleted it from the Extended Rom, along with the anti-virus and smart dialer apps.

The second page of my review above has some camera quality and full-resolution examples (towards the bottom).
CPU performance is not as fast as the imate JAM, but the battery life is way better.

Looks like I found a way to fix that problem! Reformatting the MiniSD card and re-syncing with Media Center 2005 seems to have fixed it. Now Media Player 10.1 on my KJAM remembers which track was playing between suspend sessions.

anyone autoreset only his k-jam ?¿?
regards

8. No way to set the device to complete power off mode.
Hold down power button for 4 seconds. It's the first Windows Mobile PDA to do this BTW.......
If I do this, Will I lost all data (as the pop up message say so ? )
thanks

You will lose data if the any applications that are running (that are not designed for WM5) and dont flush their data when they receive notification that the system is about to be powered off. But in general it should be ok.

Can't send/receive while device is in standby...!

Among a large and growing number of frustrations I have with my 9100 after only a day of use is that POP3 e-mail sending & receiving does not work correctly when the device is in standby.
It all works ok while the device is on (via either of WLAN or GPRS), but when in standby, nothing sends or receives.
I had a vaguely similar problem with my XDA II before, which was that in standby it operated so slowly that it would take 5 minutes just to connect, log in and lot out (i.e., even if there were no messages to collect).
Other pressing problems with the 9100 include:
- extremely poor Skype performance (even with the v1.2 Beta)
- device frequently crashes (esp. coming out of stand-by)
- no back-up support with ActiveSync 4.1
I've done any number of hard resets to no avail.
Perhaps there is a less buggy ROM than the one I have (1.1.9.3 / 16 Sep 05)? If so, where would I get that and how would I go about installing it (in simple steps, please!)?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm nearing the point where I just send the unit back...

Even if nobody can help ...b
Even if nobody can help, I'd love to know if others have had the same issues?
I'm also having problems with the device regularly crashing when I bring it out of standby. Not sure, but this may be related to the Wireless LAN attempting to connect (it works fine while the unit's on).
A --> have others found the Wizard with 1.1.9.3 to be stable?
B --> have others had problems with GPRS send/receive in stand-by mode?

Homescreen clock is about 4 minutes fast

Weird problem here... the clock on my HD2 is always about 4 minutes ahead of the actual time. I think it picks up the time from the network provider (in my case Vodafone) but wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this problem (on Vodafone or others).
I've tried a soft reset but that doesn't help.
Interestingly, I've tried another vodafone SIM (older one), which is not GPRS/3G enabled and the time is spot on!
Any ideas / suggestions gratefully received...
Thanks,

[running latest stock ROM for WWE - v1.66]

hey mate... I don't know if this is responsible for that, but try going in Settings Tab-> Data Services and disable Internet time sync... Since you mention that you have used a non internet enabled sim card, I am assuming is just that.. When you say is 4 minutes fast, do you mean faster than your hand watch lets say or faster than your pc time which synchronises with internet? hope this helps

Thanks leftkats. The time is 4 mins faster than my watch, wall clock and pc time, all of which are the same as: http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/info/current-time.htm
I disabled internet time sync and soft-reset - no change. I could of course set the time manually, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having such a device.
I noticed that when re-enabling internet time sync, the warning message about extra charges mentions wireless provider, not data provider. Any idea where it's going for it's time sync?

Jiayu S3 Adv - AOSP N stable 8 - automatic reboots, wifi, camera and sound profiles

@superdragonpt Due to the fact that I'm not allowed to post to the original
ROM thread, I'm providing my feedback via this channel.
I've successfully updated my phone to the latest AOSP 7.1.1 stable8 ROM with Gapps nano. Although most of the phone functions are working very well and maybe a little bit faster, there some smaller issues which I want to report or maybe ask for a solution:
1. From time to time the phone seems to freeze and then reboots with the
requirement to enter the SIM pin again. I've not yet identified a fixed schema
which my help to identify the root cause of the problem. Any tips how I can
solve this problem are appreciated.
2. The WIFI connection to 2.4/5 GHz access points seems to be worse than
with the old Android 5 image. I've read that other users have experienced
the same problem but a solution hasn't been provided yet.
3. The camera problems have already been discussed in another thread. So
I hope you will be able to fix it with the next stable release.
4. What I'm still missing is the option to choose between several audio profiles,
e.g. "silent", "normal", "loud" etc. It might be possible that I've not yet found
the option in the settings. If so, a tip how I can activate the feature would be
highly appreciated.

To 1: Today the phone freezed exactly as I selected a WIFI network and pressed the connect button. After a while it has rebooted automatically and I had to enter my SIM pin again.

[STABLE 10] Bugs I encountered
- NFC (Android Beam) file transfer error
- Bluetooth won't send/receive any .apk files
- High resolution video playback bug
- VPN connection does not tunnel to Built in browser, 3rd party app works.
- Hotspot breaks when turned on and off several times
- Wifi keeps disconnecting
- Idk if package installer in this build installs slower than previous ones
New members are not allowed to post reply on the original thread so I decided to report it here.

@jayjay1413 Might it be possible that you've mixed-up the phone types?
As far as I know a *stable10* doesn't exist for the Jiayu S3 Adv(ance) but
for the Jiayu S3 Plus.

Google Chromecast
Hi, using stable 8 I haven't been able to connect to my chromecast, I returned to the previous rom I was using (TFAndroid 2.54) that works perfectly for my S3 Advnace. I tried Nougat because I wanted the split screen featrure but for me chromecast connection is more important.

TicWatch Pro 3 LTE Ultra and LTE connection problem

Hello,
I have a TicWatch Pro 3 LTE Ultra and I got an e-SIM from my operator (Orange France). It works ok with one minor detail : it seems that the LTE connection only gets established if I turn flight mode on and then off...
E.g. test situation : watch is connected via BT. I turn off BT and Wifi on the watch, and the LTE connection does not start.
I turn on and off flight mode and voilà, LTE connection is established.
Other test situation : I left home for a footing and after a while realized the watch had not connected to LTE. Turned flight mode on and off, and voilà, LTE connection is ok.
Is it normal behavior? Do I miss a config parameter somewhere? If it is normal, the least I can say is that it is not seamless...
Thanks for any help,

Hey, I faced the same situation as you and after some investigation, I figured out what was the cause in my case - maybe it will help you too. I use two SIMs in my phone - the main one is from T-Mobile, the second one is from Orange. It turned out that if my Orange SIM card isn't set as default FOR THE PHONE CALLS, the watch does not switch to LTE automatically (at the same time in the Wear OS app the option of the watch LTE connection disappears). Interestignly, the options of default SIM card for SMS and for mobile internet don't play the key role here. Let's check if this helps in your case, if not, maybe do a factory reset.
Also I found out that it may behave differently on a different ROMs - when I switched ROM to the other one, LTE on my watch enables automatically irrespective of which SIM card is set as default.

Thanks a lot for answering so fast ! I knew there should be someone out there with an opinion ;-)
I do have 2 SIMs on my phone. One is Orange (e-SIM on the phone as well, BTW) and the other is Bouygues.
I tried to configure Orange as default for calls, ran the same test but did not see an improvement.
I'll test more and see if after restarting everything, it gets better.
Thanks again for the answer, I'll report back right here after more tests.

Also, what ROMs are you talking about, please? ROM for the watch? Which ROM do you use? I have the standard one...

Update from the morning, I had a notification on my watch saying that the e-Sim was activated" (which it was already), and now it seems that the LTE connection establishes itself when and as it should !!
Thanks a lot @Lord Sithek !

Oh wow, I was just writing an answer to you Im glad you got it working. By the way, I was talking about the custom ROM on my phone (Xiaomi Mi Note 10). It's strange, but since I switched to the other one (namely, OcatviOS) the issue is gone, even though I set T-Mobile SIM as the default for everything. I didn't find a key to this mystery yet, but good that it works now
One thing that I observed when I was facing your issue is that when the Orange SIM card wasn't set as default for phone calls, the option in the WearOS app that I marked in the screenshot attached disappeared. Whenever Orange was set as default, it was appearing again. Maybe that will be some kind of clue for you and other users in the future.
Cheers

Thanks! I have to say that the the various effects config parameters _on the phone_ have on the watch are less than clear to me... everything but intuitive...
