Update: ZaJules has created a One step cab fix off these instructions - should make things much easier Read his post here! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1161652&postcount=11
I left the contents of the old post bellow incase people wanted to check the steps but probably the one step install created above will be much easier for most people!
Well after a long bit of searching reading I finally got it to work!!!
This is with a Motorola H700 bluetooth headset though I'm guessing it will work with any compatible headset
thanks to BKbroil's post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1146407&postcount=317) I followed his directions.
it still didn't quite work - after fiddling with the registery a little bit (he didn't include what type of reg entries they needed to be) it finally started working!
Here are the steps I followed:
1. Install VC 1.6 (make sure it is in Main memory)
2. Download Bluetooth Voice Command 0.9f.cab
3. Download BTVoiceCommand.exe
4. On your phone, create the Folder \Program Files\Bluetooth Voice Command
5. Copy BTVoiceCommand.exe into this folder
6. Extract the "Bluetooth Voice Command 0.9f CAB.zip" file, then copy the cab to the phone and run it
7. Create the following Registery Entries:
HKLM\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand:
Default - String - (value not set)
LaunchAPEnable - DWord - 1 (decimal)
Path - string - \Program Files\Bluetooth Voice Command\BTVCBasic.exe
VoiceCmdDuration - Dword - 30 (decimal)
VoiceCmdEnable - Dword - 0 (decimal)
and
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway:
BTAGExtModule - string - \Windows\btagext.dll
This last one was already set for me but his directions had it so I included it for you to check
8. Go to newly created BT Voice Command config (in Programs) and tick off the check box "Enabled"
9. Set command duration to 30
10. Save settings and exit
11. Soft reset TyTN
12. Delete Headset Pairing
13. Recreate Headset Pairing.
14. Set button 5 to VoiceCommand
15. Reset Device
Hope this helps people out there!!!

P.S. - I take no credit for anything here except pulling together everything into one neat place and figuring out the registery entries that worked for me - all the hard work was done by the smart guys in this thread! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=283412
EDIT - attached the files I needed (not including VC 1.6) - they were scattered throughout that other thread and hard to find - thought it would be easier if they were in one place and clarified instructions!
Edit 2 - Here is the Exported Registery entries if it makes it clearer - I understand it the way I wrote it more but I suspect the smart people here will understand this more:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand]
"VoiceCmdEnable"=dword:00000000
"VoiceCmdDuration"=dword:0000001e
"Path"="\\Program Files\\Bluetooth Voice Command\\BTVCBasic.exe"
"LaunchAPEnable"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway]
"BTAGExtModule"="\\Windows\\btagext.dll"
hmmm, when i try to enable xcsdm`s hack an unexpected error occurs in btvc config.exe (nullreferenceexception ...).
what is wrong?
Oh I actually had that happen to - then I went to check on the registery settings (which were the next step) and they were not there -I manually edited them and then went back and did that step again and this time it worked fine! Perhaps I should edit the post and reverse those steps (even though that's the order he had them in)
Sorry that I forgot to mention that!
EDIT: I have gone and revised the instructions above to follow my exact steps as opposed to quoting his steps as before then listing my corrections after - I think this makes the directions clearer and easier to follow - if you have any further questions - let me know - I'll do my best to answer!
could you please post what kinds of regvalues have to be created? f.e. dword etc.
thanks

Go over one more time the steps since I've edited them - I just hard reset it and reinstalled following them exactly as stated and following the instructions point by point the way I posted them worked first time no errors!
Is there anyone that would be kind enough to make a cab that creates the registry settings?
I must be doing something wrong because the registry ones I keep making aren't working..
VERY Helpful!
@chymmylt: Super job - thanks for making this so much easier!

Can you clarify step 10
OK here is a one step cab to fix Voice Command 1.6
Please test it and let me know if there are any problems
Instructions:
Install Microsoft Voice Command 1.6 (Duh)
Copy this cab file to your device and tap to install.
Then go to Start > Programs > BT Voice Command Config
and tick enable.
Tap "Save"
Tap "Exit"
Go to bluetooth devices and remove your headset.
Power off your Device (Hold the power button till it asks to shut down)
Restart device.

Good work! I'm not good at creating installers but I figured it wouldn't be long before somebody compiled it into an easy installer!
@ZaJules and chymmylt
I just tried the cab along with your instructions and it worked like a charm. Excellent and great work to all that were involved.
I don't understand why the program crashes for me but works for others..
Mine is on a fresh install of .20 ROM with VC 1.6 and my exchange server and thats all I have done..
Hmmm.. Not sure. as I said, I didn't write any of these files, I just read through this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=283412 and pulled together everything I did into a single post to try to make it easier for people. It seems to be working for a number of people but there are a few people that it is not working for.
Did you install VC to your voice or your storage card - everything I've read said not to install it to your storage card - install it to your device - you might check that. If you installed through Zajules cab, try looking through my instructions and check that everything checks out. I'd also try reading through the forum above and see if anything strikes you.
I've seen reports of it working on an 8525 and I have a TyTN (And I suspect it should work on any hermes hardware). I have the 1.34 radio rom though I don't know if that should make any differnce (It might - Bluetooth is controlled by the radio - I really have no idea if that would help and hate to suggest anything that could brick a device - just brainstorming here). I don't have exchange installed so I couldn't say if that has anything to do with it.
Out of curiosty, when you run \Program Files\Bluetooth Voice Command\BTVCBasic.exe manually does it work?
Yes everything is installed to device and that file you asked me about launches the VC for me to input something..
I have tried to add the registry settings but I am very clueless and they aren't coming out right..
Okay I looked and
HKLM\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand
Default - String - (value not set)
LaunchAPEnable - DWord - 1 (decimal)
Path - string - \Program Files\Bluetooth Voice Command\BTVCBasic.exe
VoiceCmdDuration - Dword - 30 (decimal)
VoiceCmdEnable - Dword - 0 (decimal)
This entire string is missing..Heck the whole folder VoiceCommand is missing and I can't for the life of me figure out the correct way to add it..
Ok finally figured out how to make the registry keys that are missing so now the applicationlaunches with no error and all the registry settings match but it still won't launch when I press the headset button.
It has worked before WM6 so I know my headset works..
Man If I could just get this going its all I need.. :-(
We should post all the fixes the have been found for wm6 on the dash here to make it easier to find....
Reminder FIX:
From RandyRants.com:
Step 1: Make a change to your Normal profile. Raise the volume of some alert or something. Change something to get the device to create the following file: \Application Data\Profiles\Normal.prof.xml
Step 2: Connect via ActiveSync on XP or WMDC on Vista and copy this file to your desktop.
Step 3: Edit this XML file - add the following blurb to the SoundCategories section:
<characteristic type="Reminder">
<parm name="Script" value="v0p" />
<parm name="InitVol" value="4" />
</characteristic>
Step 4: Save this file on your PC.
Step 5: Set the System flag on this file. You can do this with a right click on the file and setting the properties or via a command prompt: attrib +s normal.prof.xml.
Step 6: Now copy it back to \Application Data\Profiles
I posted this to another thread, but the steps have changed... seems that if you don't have the System attribute set on the profile XML files before moving them to the phone it renders them useless. It also seems that on Vista with WMDC it keeps the attributes fine (inspite of having to change the OS to even see the files) but on XP/2003 with ActiveSync the System flag is removed when the file comes from the phone.
Either way, good luck with it!

Bluetooth Voice Command Fix:
WM6 Voice Command 1.6
Voice Command is a very powerful program that will allow you to control your WM6 Excalibur with your voice.
* Hands-free phone
* Dial your phone by voice using the phone number
* Contact lookup
* View contacts with a voice command
* Have the subject, time, and location of upcoming appointments read to you
* Media player
* Program starter
* Device Status
Enable Voice Command
Start > Voice Command
Voice Enabled > Yes
Announcement Routing > Bluetooth if Available
This setting will allow Voice Command to use the Excalibur phone speaker to respond to vocal commands, if you don't have a bluetooth headset connected.
IMPORTANT: Soft Reset to enable the changes to Voice Command
After the soft reset, press and hold the home key. This is the default Record Application Button which activates Voice Command. When you hear the beep say, "Help". Voice command will then guide you through the available voice commands.
IMPORTANT: Do not talk directly into the microphone. Hold the phone 4 inches/100mm from your voice. The response from Voice Command will take a few seconds.
A Voice Command tutorial from Microsoft is here.
Enable Voice Command with a Bluetooth Headset
With the current beta release of WM6, you need to modify the following registry settings to use your bluetooth headset with this feature.
NOTE: Your Excalibur has to be application unlocked to make modifications to the registry.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTA GExtModule
The string value needs to be changed from "OEMAGW.dll" to "\Windows\vcbthag.dll".
IMPORTANT: Soft Reset to enable the changes to Voice Command
After the phone reboots, your bluetooth headset will now be able to use Voice Command by pressing the button on your headset. Wait for the beep, then speak the command.
Viel Spaß mit Voice Command,
jromney

Thanks for the fixes. Unfortunately, none of the work for me. I have the files unhidden and apparently no files appear in my App Data/Profiles folder when modifying any of the profiles.
Also, when trying to add a new key to the GDI registry folder, I get an error message saying I can't do so. I'm using Resco Explorer's registry editor btw.

My friend I had the very same problem you are having now. The reason you are getting that error message is because, your wm6 ROM got corrupted some how. what I did was, reinstall the clean wm5 ROM all over again, after that, I reinstall the new wm6 official upgrade Rom and also you will have to application unlock your device all over again! Now everything will work fine!
Reminder FIX - doesn work.
The reminder fix doesn't seem to work with the release version of WM6 for the Dash.
In fact, if you do this mod, you woun't be able to switch to "Normal" profile.
It seems if the OS determines that the profile's XML file is inavlid in some way, it will refuse to load it, and this mod seems to be invalid to the OS.
This is a BIG bug with the dash (no reminder volume setting) - I hope they release a patch for it.
UPDATE: I just found and read the full version of this fix (where you need to change the "system" attribute) and it actually now does work. I am going to try to create a CAB file to do the patch so users won't have to do all the copy to/from their PC.
UPDATE: See this page for the CAB file - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1271705#post1271705
Does anyone know how to ensure that your time is always in sync with your Exchange server? I never had this problem with WM5 but since I have upgraded my Dash's internal clock seems to have gone cuckoo. If I turn it off, and turn it back on my Dash thinks it's the same time that I turned it off at. It's like the clock just stops (would be nice if it happened in real life!)
Barring a fix, does anyone know of a utility that syncs WM time with a time server over the net using SNTP?
Edit: I found this:

Somehow when copying back edited profile files, it does not retain System attribute on the flag, which, as already mentioned earlier, renders profiles unsuable.
Here is a simple workaround that I came across:
1) On your phone, open Vibrate profile for editing. Change something and save. This will force it to create the Meeting.Prof.xml profile file in the Profiles folder.
2) From ActiveSync, navigate to that folder on your phone and rename the file to Normal.Prof.xml
Now you can go back to your phone, open Normal profile for editing and the Reminder option will be there.
Hope this helps.
Unable to change profile
Unable to change profile?
Delete files in Application Data/Home/Profiles
then go to Start - Settings - Profiles
Switch to your desired Profile or re-customize your settings on every profile that you want
**xxxx.prof.xml files in Application Data/Home/Profiles contains the customizations made on every profile, example if you have only customized the Normal profile, normal.prof.xml will be automatically generated at Application Data/Home/Profiles.So deleting the xx.prof.xml file will revert the profile customization back to default.

4)Peak times> change to manually
5) Off-peak times> change to manually
6) On top right click Ok
7) On bottom right click Menu> Options, on bottom middle click Delete, when you get the warning, click Yes.
You're all done. If you follow this fix correctly (as was originally stated above, it will almost always (as it would appear by others posts( fix the battery drain issue.

Running Applications
Tap the Running Programs tab, select the application you wish to close, and tap the Stop button (or you can tap the Stop All button to close all running applications). Be sure all applications closed before turning off your IPAQ.
Power Setting
Pocket PC devices that are running Windows Mobile turn on at midnight to search for appointments for the coming day. Reminders are set and the Today view is updated with the day's events, thus on Battery power, turn off device if not used for 1 minute, Backlight on battery power: 30 seconds.
You can adjust whatsoever you want, the rule is turn off device > turn off backlight.
TODAY Plug-ins:
Better you uninstalled all today plug-ins thrid party progs.
Installed programs on SD/CF running in memory sometimes not respond after you turn on from automatic battery turn off.
It takes between 3-5 seconds to get response and/or sometimes program automatically closed by itself.
Solution: installed the programs in DEVICE.
Tips: Remove any unnecessary files in memory storage, so you will have more ROM memory storage.
After I turn on the device(2490b) from automatic battery turn off every time the backlight on battery power change to 10 seconds, no matter which setting I was choose. Until the device power off(auto or manually) the setting works, but after power on the setting change to 10 seconds again. Have anyone else this issue? Any solution?

Uhmm strange, try to do clean reset whether the symptom disappear.
BT phone manager that you missed in wm6.0
extracted from WM5.0
Dear All,
Please pay attention that after making changes, installing new software or doing your usual software settings it is advisable to power off your device before soft-resetting.
Example, I recently setup my Inbox mail accounts and soft resetted my device in a usual way. After a soft reset I found out that none of my accounts was actually kept. So, I did setup again, powered off my device and soft-resetted it. After soft-reset all mail accounts were saved and were workable
To limit CPU Usage
1.Do the Activesync Fake server trick then turn all schedule to manual
To prevent Compaction
1.As much as possible free your program memory and install all programs in the SD of CF (if possible)
2.Move all cache to SD or CF (memmaid or SKtools can do this)
Registry: ActiveSync Manually
The above Activesync fix will also fix the problem many are having with not being able to turn on their WM6 unit.
JUST TO MAKE SURE ACTIVESYNC IS MANUALLY ACTIVATED:
You can also check the following registry entry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ActiveSync\Engines\{176F 4FFD-F20C-4bd4-BDD7-01D0726C567B}\Settings] SyncAfterTimeWhenCradled (x)
Where x is one of the following:
0=Manually synchronize
5=5 minutes. Default value.
15=15 minutes
30=30 minutes
60=60 minutes
120=2 hours
240=4 hours
Here is real fix for A2DP problem on any custom hx2000 firmwares (e.g. 3.50, 3.52, WM6).
Download this cab file: Udillak_A2DP_Fix_for_hx2000_custom_firmwares.cab
Install it, make softreset and relax with working sound and controls of your bluetooth headphones.
Hello,
Since I've installed WM6 on my hx2790b it's great for everything but the PIM...
It's impossible to add a contact, an appointment, etc... It tells me "An unexpected error has occurred in this program." And it's impossible to synchronize the PIM with my PC
Any idea ?
Try to flash rom again, but you must do clean reset before (holding 1+power+3+ and stylus-reset). After successful update, u must do a clean reser again (on screen "formatting ps").
Synchronizing with PC, you must use the latest ActiveSync 4.5.

Calibrating your Battery
Read this:
http://h41206.www4.hp.com/webapps/IV3/adddoc.iv?locale=en_us&type=rep&prodSeriesId=349051&target=/NL_HW_IPG_iPAQ_common_EN_01_E/Resets/AllipaqsPoweIssuesBatteryCalibration.html&node=prodITRC/NL_HW_IPG_iPAQ_common_EN_01_E/N1|4|2|3&prodTypeId=215348&serverId=1
Calibrating your Battery
Power issues you may experience with your iPAQ over time:
* Unit fails to Power On
* Unit fails to charge 100% only holding 50% of the charge
Important: If you experience problems with power on your unit the fault may not be with the main battery. Swap testing the battery with a known good working battery may show the same fault. Calibrating your unit by running the 'Battery Calibration' test may resolve 'Power Related Issues'. You must follow the tests below exactly for good results.
1. Charge the unit for 30 minutes (No More, No Less) only powered by AC Adapter and 22-pin connector and not connected to the PC/Cradle (make sure the unit is switched/powered off).
2. Remove the power and full 'Hardware Reset' and then 'Soft Reset'.
3. Charge the unit again for 4 hours connected to ac power only. By following the procedure exactly as outlined in the steps above this will enable full calibration of the battery with the unit (make sure the unit remains switched/powered off during this charge period).
Note: After a software reset the power Leds (Light Emitting Diodes) should now be on and the battery should be showing 100%. If the unit still fails on power do the following checks:
*Test the AC Adapter at another location/power source.
*Swap test The AC Adapter if possible.
THIS WILL HELP BATTERY DRAINED ISSUE of WM6.0 in some HX2000 series; USING SKTOOL or MEMMAID:
1. KILL BioDtect in Windows Startup
2. Set Credant Manager in StartupService as MANUAL and STOP.
3. Set Standby into 24 Hr in Power Setting
4. Soft reset
5. DO NOT EVER EVER RECHARGE YOUR IPAQ USING USB in the CRADLE!!! RECHARGE YOUR IPAQ USING CABLE POWER SUPPLY ADAPTOR!!!
Bricked My Ipaq! hx2795... HELP!!
Hi,
I just got an Ipaq hx2795 and I upgraded to WM6, and it worked perfectly!. However, I saw a supposedly upgraded version of WM6 and i tried to install it, and too hastily I think. I did it without first removing my SD and CF cards. the upgrade said it went through ok on the PC, but it froze on the PPC, about halfway. ever since then, I've only been able to bring up the pda in pre-BL mode. Whenever I attempt to re-load any ROM (WM5 or WM6), I get the error message that the language of my current ROM is unknown and hence, the upgrade cannot go through. To further complicate my problem, I was trying to recover it about 3 nights ago and accidentally left the pda on all night in pre-BL mode. Now I think the battery is dead and I do not know how to charge it. Is there any resource or anyone that can help me with this problem? Is there a way to load the rom and Ignore the language setting on the Ipaq? What should I do now? HELP!!
Please let me know ASAP and Thanks!!

WM6 hx2795 and WiFi
Hello everyone,
I just came across this forum today, and was very happy to. I flashed my rom from wm5 to wm6 and definitely like wm6 more.
Now for my bug. I'm using an hx2795. Wi-Fi worked in wm5, now after I flashed the WiFi manager will connect to a AP then says 'Driver not loaded.' and disconnect. I saw Anavas' post in the "i will pay..." thread and said that wifi was working on his. So, I'm guessing it's possible to have wifi on this model. I'm hoping he/she or someone else can help me out? It's just strange that it seems to start working (can shortly do SiteSurvey as well sometimes)...
As can be guessed the driver update from HP doesn't work (incorrect revision error).
Resetting makes it works for a short time, but then I get the 'Driver not loaded' thing.
/* EDIT
* This only appears to happen when in the cradle. I took it out and it didn't give me anymore problems...weird, maybe something to do with connecting through usb vs wi-fi conflict?
*/
Thanks a bunch.
CE OS 5.2.1437 (Build 17944.0.3.1)
hi,
I checked with my hx2795 and I don't have any problem connecting WiFi so far,
I can able to connect it from my home and the office.
I even checked with the cradle, I have no problem,
Have you done a hard reset once you flashed the ROM, or did you install any other driver / software ?
I used my ppc at school all day today, and plugged it in cradle just now. I can't repeat the error, so I have no idea how, but it's working just fine. So....solution was to do nothing and let it go away, haha.

I Have Installed Wm6 Pdaviet Rom On My Hx2190 And All Worked Faster And Better.
No Problems To Install From Hp Rom 1.00.01h, Just Update In Pre-bootloader Mode In Windows Xp Sp2 Os. After Flashing No Need To Make Hard Reset, The System Starts Normaly.No Problems It Batery.
-put device into WHITE bootloader mode and again run the 1.0h rom setup. When you arrive at the screen that asks "update" or "cancel",
1. rename the wm5.xxx.nbf original from HP to wm5.xxx.nbf.old
2. rename the new wm6.xx.nbf from the 4pda.rar/pdaviet file to whatever your wm5-wm5.xxxx.nbf.
3.Flashing begin wait until finish. AC power must be conect. voila!!!
Normal Bootloader Mode:
contacts + mail + reset -let go and press calendar to activate
White Screen Bootloader Mode:
contacts + itask + reset -let go and press calendar to activate
Format P.S. (hold down until activated)(screen will say formating p.s. when activated):
contacts + messaging + power + reset
OR (I had to use this to format the p.s. after the PDAVIET rom upgrade)
calender + power + messaging + reset, release reset - release all

Great Job. Thanks From Portugal.
Celetask is supercool task manager:
Include New Task, Close task, Switch Task and View Task Properties.
Start any application through command line.
CeleTask can also execute any menu command in command line.
Include Terminate Process, View Process Modules, Properties.
Tool box with full customization support. Include Power Status, Memory Status, Free Memory, Reboot System, Shutdown System, etc.
Hot Key Customization
User can assign a hot key for any command.
All this with one press the Internet button
I use Internet button to start the Celetask and I set the hotkey of Celetask to shutdown all apps with another press of Internet button. I use "8 button" to clean the ram. And that how with 3 clicks I close all aps and clean the memory
The "1" button I use for soft restart.
To use this task manager with hotkey just download the attachment end copy two files in WINDOWS folder.
I see this in Kavana new 6.1 ROM, but you can use it in all other ROMS.

No problem, and you can try CeleCmd,it's also a good software,it help me do everything (install cab,create shortcut,input reg,and so on)after cold boot,my rom is also base on CeleCmd
I try it, but nowhere i can find documentation in English .
Can you attach the CeleTask last version in English now?
this is a great proggie. i've used it to create a shortcut to soft reset. the only problem is that it asks me to confirm i want to restart the phone. there's probably a way to bypass this, but i've not figured it out.
anyone know if there's a way to use celetask to restart the phone without a confirmation message?
Yes:
Menu-->Options-->Show Alert
Just remove the check and Celetask will make everything without questions.
Now I have a question:
how to make a hotkey with Celetask to start anoother program.
I see I can add programs to tools but can connect hotkey to them
i have the opposite question littleclown...
for some reason activesync is in my celetask and i don't want it there. there's no reason for it to start at startup. at least i don't think it's necessary anyway. it fires up just fine on it's own when i plug it into the computer.
i can't seem to get it removed from the program list in celetask.
can anyone fill me in on the trick?
Fake server for Activesync
The following info comes from Aximsite
1. open the Activesync program.
2. Select Menu at the bottom right hand corner of the screen. This will bring up the Options Menu. Notice the option Schedule... is greyed out? This is the all-critical option we need to get access to. But as it's disabled we can't change Activesync's default synchronisation schedule.
Ok, so how do we enable the Schedule option? Easy!!! Fool Activesync into thinking there is an Exchange Server to sync with:
1. From Activesync's Menu select Add Server Source.
2. In the following screens you can enter any old garbage. It does not matter, but just in case your unsure, just type the following in the indicated boxes:
Server Address: fake
Tap Next
User name: fake
Password: fake
Domain: fake
(Select save password or going into the Advanced menu makes no difference, so no need to bother).
Next
Untick all of the 'Data you want to synchronise' options
Tap Finish
3. Ok, we're done creating the server. You should now see in Activesync's main screen your normal Activesync connection(s), and a new connection called Exchange Server.
4. Go back into the Menu, and lo and behold the Schedule option is now enabled! Go ahead and tap it!
5. You will see that both options in the Schedule screen are set to Every X Minutes.
6. Using the drop downs, change both the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes to Manually.
7. Press the OK button.
Now
1. Go back into Activesync's Menu, then Tap Options.
2. Highlight Exchange Server, then tap Delete. A warning message will appear about removing files etc, but as you have no files associated with the fake Exchange Server, it's nothing to worry about - just tap Ok.
3. The list will now only show your remaining PC Sync connection(s).
I did and Activesync stop starting automatically, however after you connect with your PC you need to close Activesync with Celetask
thanks!
unfortunately it didn't work.
i'm trying something else. will report back.
I can't let Mallman have all the fun and glory (although he is doing a damn good job at getting those themes out, thank you for the inspiration)
Here are the installation instructions for my theme which is a WVGA adaptation of the ActuProColor theme
REQUIREMENTS:
1. Wisbar Advanced Desktop 2
2. A device capable of 480x800 (WVGA) resolution
3. WWE ROM although you can update the links in the theme and use it for any ROM. Just more work to install if it isnt WWE
4. The zip file which is downloaded from www.imagesoflife-online.co.uk/temp/ActuProColor_WVGA.zip and is 9.3Mb
Uninstall:
Switch themes in settings for WAD2 and delete previously installed directories
Installation:
1. Extract "ActuProColor_WVGA.zip" to folder on your pc. You will end up with one folder with all of the bits you need inside it, including the icons and the wallpaper.
2. From your pc,copy the folder named "ActuProColour_WVGA" to the "Themes" under your Wisbar Advanced Desktop installation directory. If you installed Wisbar to your internal storage (not storage microsd card) the folder is:
\Program Files\Lakeridge\WisBar Advance Desktop\Themes ***note*** if this folder does not exist just create it
3. Start WAD2 and go to settings by touching and holding anywhere on the screen.
4. Select the "General" tab
5. Select "Change Theme"
6. Tap "ActuProColour"
7. Select "menu" at the bottom and choose "Set as portrait"
8. Select "apply"
9. Press "OK"
I have installed Klaxon to link to the clock for alarms and there is a link for S2U2 for the lock option.
This is my first theme so be gentle with me.
Hope you enjoy it.
super nice keep it up!!!!

cant d/l can u reup
It's still on the server...and hasn't changed.
I tried WAD with your theme but I have the following problems :
1) When the phone wakes up by pressing the power button, it shows WAD for a couple of seconds and then it reverts to S2U2. Therefore, if the power button is pressed accidentally when the phone is in my pocket, all widgets and phone hard keys are pressable during these two seconds, before S2U2 takes control. As a result, many times I find my HD in my pocket with lots of apps running ...
2) When I tried to replace S2U2 by extending your theme and building my own (WAD based) lock screen, the "home" hardkey didn't lock. As a result, I find many apps running when the phone is accidentally turned on and the home key is pressed ...
3) When the phone is locked by S2U2, it is asleep and I get an incoming call, if takes a couple of seconds to wake up. Even when it does, the dialer ID doesn't show correctly as either the caller's name or the control buttons (answer, reject etc) are not showing. This happens in both cases, that is if I use the WM buildin dialer ID windows, or the the S2U2 one.
Although I really loved WAD I had to reject it due to these problems.
Any ideas on these problems ?
Any answer would be appreciated
Unfortunately due to the quirkiness of WAD2, I have given up on it and now MSH3.
Sorry, can't help you any more as I don't have WAD2 installed.
Regards

I also had to reject WAD2 and turn to MS3 due to the problems described above. I posed this question just for verifying that these problems do not happen on my device only.
It is a shame that such a nice piece of customizable and creative software cannot cope with the HD device ...
