| awillems | Issue with the front buttons after WM6 ROM upgrade | 7 | Jun 4 2008, 2:54 AM EDT by Anonymous | |||

I find that this complaint is few and far between, yet I now know of three people with exactly the same issue. After performing the ROM update available from the HTC website, all the front buttons on the HTC TyTN stopped working immediately (these are the Messaging, IE, OK, Video Call, Dial, Hangup, the joystick buttons, etc. that surround the screen).
No amount of hard resets (via Settings, Clear Storage OR the two soft keys together with the recessec reset button, OR more than 8 attempts at reloading the ROM update (all successfully completed, by the way) addressed this extremely annoying condition as result of the upgrade from WM5 to WM6. Let's face it, WM6 added some nice features, have a good look and feel, but having to loose the buttons is a bummer, to say the least. I have searched so many forums over the past two months since the ROM upgrade, that I cannot remember half the stuff - tried so many things that I can re-install my software blindfolded, yet no solution in sight. Some details: I am a resident of South Africa, my contract is with Vodacom. The HTC distributor in RSA is Leaf Technologies (www.leaf.co.za) and my model is a HERM200 ROM version: 3.54.255.3 ROM date: 07/05/07 Radio version: 1.48.00.10 Protocol version: 32.81.7020.20H ExtROM version: 3.54.255.104 Any and all assistance is appreciated, since Leaf advised that it's a hardware problem.... Go figure - a ROM upgrade trashes three TyTN's buttons, yet the same button work for a Hard Reset? Regards from sunny RSA

1. Installing .cab files for Win Mobile 5x, software won't install with error "this is not a pocket pc application" -had no issues with same .cab files in previous ROM.
2. Touch tones for dialing on touch screen are gone. 3. Battery drains faster than with previous ROM. 4. Did notice preference to EDGE/3G over Wifi (but can still get wifi) -they fight each other when launching IE or other internet app. 5. Slider keyboard does not "light up" in the dark unless you first press a key. Backlight was "instant on" in the dark with previous ROM. That's my 2-cents. |

I also flashed the 2.15 update and noticed a few things.
1. Bluetooth Dial Up Networking service is gone. Instead us Internet Sharing under Programs. 2. I can now assign MP3s to ringtones. 3. I have this PTT Red button at the top of my screen that I can't seem to get rid of (I don't use PTT). That's about all I've noticed.

After installing the new version, I lost USB Modem connection. I used to be able to connet my laptop through 8525 as a modem for Internet. Now that's gone. Any help? Please - danielfchen@gmail.com

Where did you get the older ROM? I am looking at trying to put mine back to that version. I have to do something, Not being able to work on my phone is killing me.
Thanks

Problem corrected: Bluetooth would randomly turn off when connected to a charger/USB connection.
Features lost: 1 Dial-up networking went away, replaced by Personal Area Networking (PAN) which is not supported on Apple systems. 2 Bluetooth services now limited to acting as headset (services seen by my laptops supporting Bluetooth); no data functions. 3 Access to ISP@CINGULARGPRS.COM no longer provisioned; connections are limited to using WAP (more likely AT&T policy issue). 4 Phone will no longer us an available WiFi connection; it connects/authenticates, but tries to use Edge/3G instead. I would re-flash old ROM, except for a fatal flaw in the old version. After about 3 weeks of operation, the phone would quit displaying a pop-up to dismiss an alarm or reminder. All un-dismissed items would sound again when phone was power-cycled or after a soft reset. This occurred on two different 8525s (and also on an 8125, but that phone seemed to work for 6 months before losing its mind).
