Thanks for that RHC-NET. Have you given it a try yet?

I've got it on my Kaiser here and I've not seen any problems so far!!

I did the update last night and it seems to be running beautifully. Either because of the update or because of the hard reset involved it seems to be running a little quicker.

I do like the option in the bluetooth stack the automatic turn off of discovery and its related blinking reminder on the bottom of the today screen.

The only downside i have seen so far is the comm manager, which looks dated as it appears to be like the original one from the XDA Mini s. Tho its purely cosmetic and it works fine.

I've not noticed the Bluetooth sack option, I guess that's because I control BT with phoneweaver, not manually.

Definitely be interested to see your further thoughts, the new ROM is still working well here so far.

I wonder when o2 will release the new rom for the Orbit 2

Will the stellar flash work on the orbit 2

It has to be here soon now as the Orbit 2 ROM is based on that of the Stellar. So probably in internal testing I'd have thought.

I had a problem with upgrading and the O2 customisation. I had installed tomtom on a memory card and this was being reinstalled immediately after the upgrade, this caused the customisation to stop/fail. The consequence of this was all of the O2 apps (task app, phone bar, memory bar, O2 Calendar, etc.) where missing.

I removed all the installation files from the card relating to the tomtom app (install.bif, start.exe, ttdesk.ver and directory 2577) and re-upgraded to WM6.1 and all is OK now. I reinstalled tomtom and it found the maps on the card and works fine.
