I think I found a bug...

The alarms sounds don't seem to work when I set an alarm.. Not a big deal but wanted to let someone know.

x51v Serial Port Problems

Just want to verify this, when renaming the HKEY for the serial port...Do you rename the String Value Name or the String Value String to "Serial Cable on COM1" and....do you use the quotes...
If it is the String, do you keep the : at the end....

I use this for external GPS unit....

Any Help thanks:eek:
So far the following works:
Burr Oaks Conversion in Hand3.61, Lexigoo Dictionary 3.0, Resco Explorer 2007, SOTI Pocket Controller 6.01, tman 0.96, wisbar advance 2.8.03, lingvosoft talking dictionary 2007, pocket mechanic 2.60, IGO 2006 SE, Iguidance 4.0....the later two software packages work, however, I need the fix for the serial port.....
Additionally, I did try using Franson GPS Gate...but cant get a read on the port


thanks again for any reply...:D

could it be that you didn't set the power settings to "FULL POWER OFF" ???

and that when you thought you had it turn off but actually that it only went to "sleep" ??

and now that when you are thinking you are "powering on" but infact you are only "waking it from suspend mode" ??

you'd be surprised how many people "NOT" knowing about the "FULL POWER OFF" feature and not knowing that you have to "HOLD" the power button & confirmed a prompt for a true "POWER OFF" !!

otherwise ... it is only in suspend/standby ... not fully off ;)

nope, that's not it.

it's the today timeout...i realized what triggered the problems too; it's the 'lock', 'prompt for password if device unused for x minutes' function.

with a little bit of searching, other devices get the same problem too with wm6...just search xda developers for "today timeout"


anybody know of a fix for this other than disabling the password lock?

Think i got it working right

Hello,

A question,... i have hard resetted my axim like crazy learning more from each one. :rolleyes:

I have noticed, that when i have my unit fresh from the hard reset all is well. When i start to load programs, i notice that the background screen of the applications have the striped pattern.:confused:

I know i've read some where before that this is a sign when the axim doesn't recognize the program.

I didn't have that problem w/ A17 ROM, so is this something people have noticed on their axims w/ the new WM6 ROM as well or is mine just an isolated case?:confused:

Any one tried the HTC Home Plugin on the Axim? I really like the weather forecast and the clock.
They really look nice on my Dopod 838pro.

I tried the 3-Tab and 6-Tab version for WM5 on the A17, and also the 6-Tab version for WM6 on the A01.
I installed them without a problem. After the soft reset, nothing showed up on the Today screen (as if nothing has been installed)
I looked into the Today setting screen and there was no HTC Tab available to be selected.
I can see the programs are there under the Windows directory of the PPC!

Any help will be appreciated!

HTC Home Plugin

I tried to run the HTC Athena and Kaizer VGA Home Plugins on the Axim X51v with Football's WM6, without success. They install correctly, but don't show up at the Toay screen items list.
Anybody any suggestions how I could get the HTC Home plugin running on the Axim.
It is a good looking and very functional plugin.

Hi ibexpro2005

you are not alone. I had the same problem with my wired GPS. and when I tried searching for it my navigation program (IGO) starts at com 2 and won't look at com 1. I couldn't find a solution so am back with A17 :-(
