So if you have comments, issues, problems, opinions or just plain questions about this upgrade, post them here.
great job dcs.
let me be the first to post and it's regarding Incoming MSG.
When i first got my unit from Philippines, it was loaded with 1.66WWE and with this version i was able to select preloaded or customized WAV as incoming SMS tone. But it went missing when i upgraded to Waxx's 1.72 and even now to the latest o2 UK 1.72. Anyone else experiencing this?

Personally, I find the performance to be improved and also stability. Also, when a call comes in, the Answer button on the dialog works, which didn't before. As part of the extended ROM, O2 have provided improved video streaming over GPRS plus video for MMS (I haven't used either yet). The OS itself has the Microsoft user update 2 included. Of course, the 181 release also has Blackberry included.

OK. Strange, but at least you are sorted
Edit: Maybe it is something in O2 Active that causes the problem? I have uninstalled it, so perhaps I am unaffected. Could other people with O2 Active still installed throw light on this?
msn
Hi, I have installed the new rom (1.72.187). Everything is ok but Messenger. I can surf web sites using gprs and wifi but i cant connect msn. I always get the same error. "Logon to MSN Messenger failed because the service temporarily unavailable." But i can connect with my laptop. Any idea? thanks....
dcs,
have you tried Battery Pack Pro v1.1.10 on this? The last time i used this with 1.66WWE, i keep getting total blackout on my XDA2 with Bluetooth light steady blue and i hard to perform hard-reset. since then i was afraid to try again.

Have you applied the latest patch from Microsoft? Take a look here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/msnmessenger/pocketpc.mspx
It does state that you cannot access the service unless it is applied. Quote: "Customers without the updated software will not have access to the Service until the download has been completed."

I also have identical experience using the Battery Pack Pro v1.1.10 on 1.60 WWE. Being scared to have a try on 1.72. Should anyone pioneer on this, please also let me know. Thanks
Blackberry?
I'm trying to understand what the benefits of having Blackberry are. The Blackberry website says you get all the stuff which I'm sure I already have with my XDA. Things like e-mail and IE. Except for my e-mail which is blocked by my ISP, Plus.net (I can only view/download e-mails, not send new ones).
What's the big improvement I'm supposed to get with Blackberry? :?

I am running v1.1.1 with no problems on the v1.72 Rom. Worked fine with 1.60 also but no experience of v1.66.
have already installed New ROM 1.72.187
in this ROM, i think it work faster than 1.60 but liked other 1.72 ROM from T-mobile.
In the Ext ROM ,it doesn't include some software such as GPRS monitor.
Now ,I desired to cook it.
More stable without question. Only thing that I have found is that the O2 logo can't be moved. Dam thing stuck in middle of title bar. BT Tools works ok. Better wapsupport for o2 active, though XDA seems to forget it's connected and will drop connection and reconnect when conecting to O2's wap service.
Still it's a worthwile update.
I am having problems with Fonix voice dial. When I adda voice tag I get an error that it cannot update, hard or soft reset doesnt help. Also if I restore my backup using the built in backup program I find that streaming video and blackberry programs both vanish from my xda 2.
Feed back
looking good so far. I have added all my apps including BPP 1.1.1 and everything works fine.
SRS now works as well whereas before it trashed my xda II
I am from Asia but installed this UK o2 ROM and found its totally working good.
However, one thing is the autoconfig function has gone.
Anyone knows how to get this from the previous AISA rom?
Blackberry Config
Anyone been successful with this yet?
Ive activated the install and the BB client tries to connect somewhere over GPRS, but eventually suspends itself.
Ive got access to our Corporate BES so should be able to get it working. However, there seems to be some mention in the ROM upgrade guide about a desktop client manager (needed on PC to download the policy).
Ive seen posts that say O2 is not making it availble until Jan 05 - anyone confirm?
Oh, and Im actually using Vodafone
I can't connect my Live messenger when I am using wifi, does anybody know how to fix it.
anyone, waiting for a solution
Which ROM are you using, If it is AT&T your proxy needs to be off... Are you using WM5 or 6?

I suggest you do a hard reset without any extra installed and check whether you are able to connect to wifi and WLM.
If still failed, most likely is your hardware problem.
Tried it aswell, even installed it on my 02 atom stll had the same problem then
Live messenger
Here's what I did to get it going, if this helps.
Turn on WIFI, make sure you found a router and that you are connected, check with your browser to ensure data flow.
Click on the Windows Live Icon, not the Windows Live Messenger.
Once you got Windows Live running, start Live messenger and it should work
At first, I was clicking on the Live Messenger login and it never worked, it seems once you got Windows Live running once, it solves the problem.
From here on, I can start it directly after connecting to a WIFI without having to click on Windows Live before, kinda like a one time setup thing, maybe it writes something to the registry, go figure, it's Microshaft right?
Hope this helps.
start/settings/connections/network cards/
tap the network adapters tab.
in " my network card connects to:"
make sure you got " The internet" selected.
if you got "work" change it and reboot the device.
hope it helps.
failling that it means tha wlive is not properlly installed. maybe missing some reg keys.
hi everyone, I'm using O2 XDA Atom Pure, and the ROM is AKU 0.3 CHT(0.7CHT stable version hasn't release)
I have a problem, when I use pushmail, after serveral hours the actvieSync would stop and shows "Waiting for network", even though I press the "Sync" button, it still shows "Waiting for network", and mail also cannot be push to my cellphone.I have to soft reset to make activeSync work,but this problem still occurs after a period time.
I've already check my GPRS netwwork settings, it's all fine and setting are all correct,and I did not install any software that will affect ActiveSync,so anyone could help me to solve this problem? otherwise the pushmail function is not useful for me....

I'm using 0.3 CHT fixed By Jiggs,not dcoloane version.
I didn't launch small hand writing pad but in SIP menu, small hand writing pad is in the list, should I disable this hand writing pad?(how?)
I also see there is a dcoloane version which is made by you, but I found you write:"Sunglobe.ttf is used instead of mingliu.ac3, wince.nls is 1.5MB from CE-Star". I don't know if mingliu is instead by sunglobe will made system fonts unclear or not?

no it won't, I subsitide the font because I will receive Simplify Chinese SMS and it seems that sunglobe is a better font for both CHT & CHS.
The FIXED version had problems (unstability) on Active SYNC because of the SIP's not really PORT from the same version of the original ROM. Some SIP's are from AKU2.2 WM5 while some from dll's from other devices. The final one is one package get from WM5 AKU2.2 which should minize the impact on system stability. Although I still did not figure out why the small hand writing pad still causing problems. If you really want to use Push Mail often, i suggest you use back AKU2.2 or the final ROM by me, before flashing the new ROM, just use PCBckBackup your SMS, Contacts, Tasks and Calendar stuff to the SD Card. But if you don't want to flash again, Use only Chanjie as SIP instead of the HandWriting.
Well, although this post is pretty old...
I've always been having that problem. Even after some years I still can't tell the reason.
The solution I've been using since then is to restart ActiveSync on the phone using the task manager (which probably does the same than a complete soft reset, but is a lot faster).
Since I've upgraded my Diamond with a new firmware ActiveSync is displayed in the list of active tasks. Using another task manager I killed the process which still didn't help. In another post here I read that disconnecting your Gprs/3g connection might help. So it did.
Using Google you can find a lot of board posting from users with that problem. Noone has found a real solution and Microsoft doesn't seem to care about it.
What I am curious about is: Does your Exchange server have a dynamic IP?
Mine does. And PushMail is only active during the day. The daily disconnect of my provider is somewhen in the night. So when Active Sync starts again the following morning it's beeing confronted with another server ip. Maybe that's a possible reason?!

Hi Doc!
Looks like you have the same problem when sounds are off after you type 30 or something simmilar times in your dialpad. Maybe guys here know already solution for this - it's commonly known problem. I'm still also living with it and I have the only one solution - restart

Disappearing Ringtones & Rings (Muted Sound)
hi ashraf basha
hi DOC
well....i turn my mobile vibra and sound for this reason...when it occurs just soft reset
see you
Default Prophet ringing tone goes silent after certain numbers of dialing
I wonder if anyone notice the problem exist eversince WM6 ROM. I have tried many version of WM6, WM6.1 and now WM6.5, they are all having the same problem
After making certain calls using the keypad, the ringing tone disappear (incoming call ringing tone and the keypad tone all disappear)
Second incident is that when I'm on the call and caller waiting is activated (second person trying to call me) the phone will also go total silent from there on.
The solution is to turn off the phone and restart.
After the phone restart, the ringing tone & dialer keytone work fine. After few dialings the fault happen again.
Does anyone has the solution?
Cheers

What Rom are you using ?
Have you installed a dialler cab file yourself ?
or any other cabs to do with tones ie.. reminders or different tones for different callers ?
This seems like a problem specific to yourself as no one else has complained of this problem ,So i am thinking it's something you install your self that would also explain why you have the problem on several roms

i have same problem with my i mate jamin , only offical rom works fine, when i upgraded to cooked wm6.1 also wm6.5 i am facing same problem , nothing extra installed on that , if i put phone for long standby fone becomes silent , what is soul plz,
changed all radio versions also but same
thanks in advance
Nothing extra added to all the WM6.x ROM that I have tried but yet the problem remains.
Perhaps you didn't dial as much number as I do, that's why you haven't experienced that.
In fact there were other threads discussing the same problem but no ones seems to have the right answer.
Im having same problem too, totally silent. It happen when use keypad to find/dail contacts, few click heard sound, then totally silent. I tried install/remove dailpad but the problem still exists, tried off keypad sound, changing ROM yet the problem remains.
I did install a ROM (Dont remember which one and when) and the problem happens everyday until I need to change to other ROM.
Maybe someone could come out with solution.... Anyone?
How can someone come out with a solution when you all discribe your problem so badly none of you can tell wich rom you are using build blah blah

Perhaps you might not read the post carefully, we are saying of all the WM6.0, WM6.1 & WM6.5 ROM that we have tried have similar problem.
If you haven't experienced them, perhaps the best way to learn is to install the latest build -WM6.5 Build 23001 - 23016 WWE bikertibi edition at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=532122
Then post us the solution if you have got one, thank you.

Yes i have read but this problem only exists in the latest builds of 6.5 and by the way i built some of those ROMs so your suggestion is out the window
I stopped building and releasing after 23004 because i was noticing to many bugs the only way to stop this with these latest builds is to change the way we cook the ROMs there is no fix. The files that are causing the problems are in the wrong partition so they can't be read when called on by the kernel of the OS (Like they don't exist)
This is why all the builds after 21100 have problems
You can Read all about it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544445
As for all the ROMs having problems well i have run some of these 6.0 and 6.1 roms for months with no problems (and not just me many others on this forum)
These problems are 6.5 related

Hi all,
if you want to workaround the problem, just turn off the keypad sound.

Have you tried it? Does it work?
I don't quite like the idea because by enabling the keypad sound that's how I get to know whether the income call will ring or not. Because I have lost many incoming calls due to the bug, not knowing someone is calling.
