In my hermes, on comm manager there is the icon of wifi, but it's stay off!!!

Strange, mine seems to be working fine.
Can you use the info 8 command in mtty and report back if you have any bad blocks??

same thing happened to me, but not after the wm6 flash, I flashed to aku 3.3. Basically in the comm manager you click on the wlan icon, the wait icon pops up for about 3 seconds, but it doesnt even turn green, it just stays greyed with the x on it. I'm pretty sure its a hardware problem, I haven't been able to fix it with multiple flashes and hard resets. I only know of one other person that has it, I forgot their name, but if you search for "WLAN broken," or something like that you will find them.
Tell me if you got it fixed, and if so, how

I have it too...
I'm pretty sure its not a hardware problem because I was using it right before flashing...now it stays off even though i try to start it...
HELP PLEASE!!!

Working fine to me.
But .... few times I noticed that even that I click the icon on the comm manager the icon do not change (not sure what is happening to the WiFi itself).
Clicking it again (setting off) and once again and everything working fine.

I had some issues with wifi on XDA 0.20, it worked, but kept disconnecting and losing the security parameters.
I changed to LVSW ROM and wifi works perfectly.

Yes i have the same problem!!!

here as well! exactly the same!
I tried several roms now already, XDA 0.20, LVSW.
Even after downgrading to WM5, the error persists..
AND IT WORKED Just 5 minutes before flashing to WM6...
Any ideas?
Thanks
raist
P.S. it's a Vario 2 from T-Mobile Austria.

Exact wifi problem...
...been after this for a while now...seems nobody has an answer to it.
Mine is an HERM200, I tried downgrading OS, Radio, BL....everything....no luck!

Someone call out of warranty repair, and ask for an estimate for a new motherboard, its a hardware problem

Hardware problem caused by ROM upgrade??????...
This is what you mean cjchriscj????
If it is so then everybody should know that appart from the risk of bricking your PDA you can lose important functionality...
Again my Tytn's WLAN was 100% operational just before upgrading...

I downgrading to wm5 with rom of cingular and the wifi doesn't work!!

i downgrading with the original shipped rom, but the wifi doesnìt work!!!

Tried that too...
...does not work!
So flashing kills the WLAN???
I just dont get it...

Can these people who have wifi problems after upgrade please use mtty and the info 8 command to report if they have any bad blocks in NAND. Info is in the wiki under bootloader commands.
The reason why i ask this is because this has been mentioned in another thread and some discovered that it was due to bad blocks in NAND (ie, flash went horribly bad).
Report your findings
S.K.

I had a very similar problem with the phone and wifi. In Comm Manager both were switched off, when I clicked on them they would attempt to come on, sometimes for a good 20 seconds then go out again. Sometimes the phone function would switch back on but would then crash the phone.
After numerous hard resets with no luck, my solution was to get Orange to replace it which they did promptly, sorry I can't be of any further help.
BTW. I can't remember the specific cause of it now, but I had not flashed the ROM, everything was standard. I may have been installing new software.

Difficulties with phone after upgrading to the new ROM

Hi folks ...
I face this problem with the phone many times a day. I can confirm it happens each time there is a failed call attempt (you couldn't make the call) ... the only way is to switch off the phone and turn it on again.
I thought it's something with RSU 1.09.00 but it happens also after downgrading to 1.08.00 ... so I think it has to do with the new ROM. It tells the signal maybe unavailable while you can see it is on the max level.
Edit: last observation ... it can receive SMS :?:
Any one faced this experience ??
Me Too
I Have the same problem :-(
Me Too

Ive noticed in your screen shot the active sync is trying to connect with the internet which will prevent you phone from making the call. To give a example .... if I was downloading a file using my universal and someone tried to call me they would get my mail instead of ringing as the phone is using the internet connection however as soon as the file downloaded the phone would break the internet connection and allow the call. Hope that made sense!
I thought the service is supposed to interrupt the download if the phone rings as the primary function of the device is a telephone and secondary as a mobile computing platform.

That's what I always thought but even with my trusty old imate jam I found if I got a call as I was downloading say mail the call would not make it though, try downloading a biggish file then ring your phone number at the same time I bet it will not make it This as ALWAYS been the case btw - don't matter which rom you have. oh and this applies to gsm (2.5 gprs) only as 3G is a totally different ball game!
thx for all inputs but it happens even without activesync running ... it doesn't work again except by switching the phone off then on ... the most exciting part: u will never notice that your phone is frozen till you try to make a call :evil: ... this will make me to go back to the old rom
More observation on this issue ... I made a hard reset and started without any problems with the phone part ... I restored a system backup and all went well ... the phone issue appeared again when I paired my BT headset with the device ... this might mean something to do with the BT stack ... I believe it happens mostly during or after using the headset :?:
Any similar experiences ?

Same Problem Here... I was going to downgrade to 1.08.00, but now I may not... Don't want to lose the speed increase, so don't want to downgrade ROM...
back again ...
I made another hard reset and staretd without any s/w installed for a week .. the phone seemed to be stable but with the same annoying BT disconnect issue ... the above issue started to appear again after installing some phone related s/w like Smart Filter and PZP ... I think the new Radio ROMs starting with 1.08 have an issue with such applications that would continously check on phone traffic or have OS hooks to catch some events ... this wasn't the case with Radio 1.02 or 1.03 ... I 'm thinking to get back to 1.03 since I got nothing from 1.08 or 1.09 except quick battery draining!!

Bad Block after flashing Black Edition / WXML / LVSW

Recently after flashing WM6 Black edition v1.1, my Mapking software suddenly shuts down after some usage. I tried to uninstall and reinstall many times still having the same problem. then LVSW came out with a new version, so I flash it in and reinstall MapKing several times but cannot start the software. Now I flash in Black edition v1.2 and retry but MapKing still won't starts.
Finally, I decided to check for bad blocks. Using mtty.exe, it shows 3 bad blocks which was not present the very 1st time i checked before flashing all those cooked roms.
Does anyone else experience the same problem as me? Hope that the bad blocks could be cleared to original....

no one else has experienced bad blocks chump... sorry... time to send it to the repair shop...
Flash memories are fabbed with redundant blocks as during the manufacturing process there are process variencies that cause some memory blocks not to be fabbed correctly. so if there werent any redundant blocks fabbed in the ROM, any resulting bad block will result in a complete throw out of that ROM memory, so companies fab additional blocks that are addressed to take place of bad block. They do this to increase their yield rates to save costs.
Btw, I have PhD in microelectronic engineering and have fabricated many IC's.
and i have 3 bad blocks, and so do 1000's of other hermes users.
If your 3 bad blocks are 936, 937 and 938, this is nothing to worry as these are factory marked bad blocks and appear on the device sooner or later... it doesn't have any bad effect at all, and also is nothing related to your problem with Mapking.
Code:
Block 0x3A8(936) is BAD block !!!
Block 0x3A9(937) is BAD block !!!
Block 0x3AA(938) is BAD block !!!

Thanks pof for the reassurance mine are exactly the same bad blocks you mentioned above. But the bad blocks were not present the 1st time I checked, which was the cause of my false alarm. If it is factory marked, then why does it not appear in the 1st place, but appears after some time?

From what I have read, the bad blocks may or may not become visible, but it is built-in to the rom by the manufacturer to take up space. You were just lucky I guess....LOL.
I too have those three showing as bad blocks,but I am having NO problems with any of my software or hardware.I am running Tom Tom 6 just fine with no lock ups!

Any idea what else could have caused Mapking to stopped working, even after flashing oS upgrade? Nowadays I only only flash OS because it is the fastest, by stripping off IPL, GSM, MainSPlash, SPL, ExtROM and Subsplash using Olipro's ROM Cooker.
After installing MapKing, click on it will load its splash screen, but then it will exit abruptly from the splash screen. Checking the running programs from settings/systems/memory shows that MapKing is not loaded. No matter how many times I reinstall or restart, it just won't get past its splash screen.
Could this problem be caused by corrupted components which I did not flash? Should I reflash the whole rom, not just the OS? Any good advices?
Can someone with WM6 confirm mapking 2007 works? This bad block may be an isolated case?
Why not try MapKing G10. If it works means MapKing 2007 is compartible with WM6 and wait for upgrade.

I get the same problem now! I have tried MapKing G10 and 2007,both can not work(just show the splash screen)
Both G10 and 2007 does not work with all radios from 1.34-1.41 and all versions of WM6 roms I tried. LSVW, WMXL, Black
Mapking splashscreen Quits
Dont know if anyone solved the Mapking closes after Splashscreen issue yet but i kinda fixed it.
I installed Pocket Mechanics, Low Level format the Card. Set Cluster size to 4K.
Reinstall mapking 2007 and its working. Still testing it. Unless there is a problem. I wouldnt be posting anything.
Hope this helps the Mapking users. with the same issue

Do any of the WM6 roms support Vodafone (UK) VM notifications?

Never managed to get it working with the WM5 roms - I wondered if anyone had got them working with any of the WM6 Roms.
I have the same question. I never managed to solve this problem
I thought the voice mail notifications was network dependent... a signal they send that activates/de-activates the icon?
Dont know if its relevant - but might be worth checking out this thread:
It discussed VM notfications on Orange, but if you are having problems with WM6 that were not apparent in WM5, using the WM5 version of sms_providers.dll may help.

Tried that unfortunately - no good :-( I tried the sms_providers file from the v1605 and that doesn't work either, so there's something in the Rom elsewhere as well.
What happened under Wm5?

When I tried this the 1st time it didn't work, the second time it did, you need to delete all your voicemail 1st and after installing the cab, and copying the dll leave the device on for a couple of minutes then turn off completely. turn on your device and it should then work.
Good luck

GPS Navigator Quick Patch(Multi-language)

actully, it is a 50kB tiny software once came with official rom......working on wm6.
it have only a simple dialog. Auto-select Multi-language.(i see some resouse in Ita, Ger... ...)
Function:it downloads a 3-days global sattelites position data into your mobile, (use GPRS about 1kb), then in next 3 days, the navigator software(like tomtom) will get sattelites signal in 5 seconds!!! no matter how you shutdown or reboot.
i have no idea how it works, but it really works wonderful !!
After data downloaded, it can be exit (the data will still working), so it won't occupy any memory.
as i said in my other threads, my english sucks, and maybe something i am posting is a ages-old-news to others, but please dont laugh at me
Works great!!!!!!
Thanks.
Can you please clarify from which "official" WM6 rom you took that out from?
Hope you are not talking about MIO A701 and it wasn't placebo effect

it is from a Dopod (oem from HTC) simplify chinese and China Mobile Company oem software wm5 rom. Should exist in some other language rom but so far no further infomation about souce.Delivered too many times before i get it.
nothing Copyright&About info in this software, but it is very well designed and someone spend lots of time to make it good and with so many languages. although it is old, the server which it gets data from is still working fast and the satellite position data is uptodate every hour. so i guess it must come from something big, like HTC company or a global orgnization.
it is ok for you to doubt its effect (because i did too)
For example, if you usually need about 2 minutes to let navigator working after a cold-reboot. Install this software and update once, then do as many reboot as you want, however the navigator will take only 5 seconds to get satellites, except you are staying in house or you run the navigator after more than 3 days from you last update.
the compare result should be obvious, But i am glad if u tell me it is not working on yours, cause i cant figure out how it working.
no problem to install the log on my trinity, but the download of the satellite base is impossible by GPRS or wifi !
thanks.
does it download data via HSDPA?
Just tried this on my Trinity. Installs fine and downloads ephemeris data via ActiveSync fine but doesn’t appear to decrease TTFF…
There’s been plenty of banter around why A-GPS (whether it’s from your carrier or pre-downloaded) won’t work with the Trinity driver for the GPSOne QualComm chip, but I thought I would try anyway. Love to be proven wrong
download ok after a soft reset.
but in TomTom, no change; so don't work on (my) trinity ...
Hi,i think like quickgps that is a placebo effect with qualcomm
installs and downloads the ephemeris file fine.
Not sure it actually doing anything- as posted by numerous other folks.
Even so, it was a very good price ;-)
this morning i tried once more, and it takes 30 seconds, didn't works as good as yesterday. but still faster then normal.
i believe the reginal setting should be setted to real location.

for me it's work fine : I've just instal and try it with TomTom. It take 20sec to do the cold first fix. If it's a placebo it's a good one!
My usually cold first fix was in 1 or 2 min.
ps : I use UDK WM6. Gps settings : com9, 57600baud / TomTom settings : other NMEA GPS, COM9, 57600baud
My S300+ is now as fast as my old MioA701.
Does not seem to work on my Trinity here in the UK,
still takes for ever to get a fix.
Guys, I don't want to pour cold water on to your dreams - but this cab is for Mio, presumably A700/A701 that contains a SiRF-III chip. This would be useful to P3300 aka Artemis - but should have no effect on those Qualcomm chips.
If someone do get the version from Kaiser working on Trinity, I'm more than happy to know
Just installed, downloaded satellite file.
Did a very very cold fix (a few months without launching TomTom) : took 5 min to fix.
My 2 cents : definitely placebo effect
SeeGSEE
I tried to use this on my P3300 for a couple of weeks and it never worked. Gave me some error about network connection not made. I just uninstalled it and went back to using the Quick GPS Fix file that redirects the DL from different servers (unknown) from HTC's. Don't know how effective it is but it downloads at least.

HELP- Phone has changed autolock password

I have an XDA IIs recently upgraded to WM6.
I set it up so that after a few mins the password prompt pops up. This stops it from being knocked in my bag etc.
But a few days later and it has decided to change the pass for some reason? And I have no idea what it has set it to.
Is there anyway I can bypass the password screen?
Thanks!
EDIT: If it makes any difference, I guess the battery must've been low, because before the problem happened it had to do a full boot rather than just coming out of standby.

This is a known flaw in WM6. The only solution is to delete the hive. Soft-reset, hold the 2 buttons next to the volume slider until a menu comes up and select yes for the delete hive option. You do not need to format storage, but your registry (hive) will not know about the installed programs so you might choose to format storage as well. If you do both it will just like when you first flashed the ROM and you will have to re-install everything. After doing this do NOT use the built-in password option WM6 gives you, this will happen everytime you remove your battery or it goes dead. There are other locking programs out there that wok instead.
I use S2U2 as do many others to keep the phone "locked" when not in use, it does not use a password, but requires you to slide your finger across the screen to "unlock" it.
Thanks!
That seems to have done the trick.
Bit strange that microsoft haven't bothered patching WM6 to fix this...?
Oh well its sorted now anyways, so thats a relief

It's not been patched by microsoft because it's really not a WM6 problem, it's a 'running a massisvely hack version of WM6 on an old, unsupported device' issue.
Remember, the angel was released some time ago when WM2003 was the latest. These devices were never even considered as an option to run wm6. The fact that Helmi was able to make it run at all is amazing, and really shows just how good he is (I'm assuming Helmi is a male, I've actually never seen anything stating if Helmi has boy or girl wibbly bits ).
yeah...
WM6 really is not made for our BA, there's a thread here regarding your problem.
no sense of saying search first. but im glad someone helped you.
WM6 on our BA? Helmi did miracles to make that happen.
P.S.
actually it's Helmi not Hemli (pardon the correction)
and now that you said that it made me curious too. hmm.... ahaha...
