I think if you're going to release 5.6 this weekend you need to address the forum access problems. I have a hi-speed connection and it still takes a [u]minute[/u] to pull up.
Easier said than done. One thing at a time though... it's on my list of things-to-do.
So how does one determine if the version they downloaded is the original 5.6.7 version or the Repacked 5.6.7 version?
You know, some sw distributators use the version number to distinquish one release from another. :icon_smile: The repacked version of WW could have been 5.6.7a. This approach would have automatically popped up msgs on the screens of those using the original 5.6.7 version informing them of the new updated release.

The ww.exe file has a mod date of April 09, 10:03 on the original version and a mod date of April 10, 11:54AM on the fixed/repacked version. The setup file I downloaded on the 13th (12:19AM) was the original version. The one tonight is the fixed version.
Does the “old” include the changes to the Splendid Forecast’s Current.wtp file that were included with 5.6.8? Is the “old” the original 5.6.7 or is it 5.6.8 with 5.6.7’s ww.exe and dl.exe?
One solution to 5.6.8’s PNG wallpaper problem would be to have PNG files be an option on the Wallpaper tab. If someone wants to try them they select the option, if it doesn’t work they deselect it. The option could even have a caveat indicating it requires Active Desktop for older systems.

Slow down there Ed [:D] I believe the post is talking about the wallpaper changer method. I think that's what I wrote anyhow [8D]

I'm sure there are many other possible solutions. Not too many wallpapers are in PNG format, so this shouldn't really be an issue anyhow.
Because you could have replaced the ww.exe and dl.exe files in 5.6.8 with the ones from 5.6.7 and then named it all 5.6.7, again. There were two versions of 5.6.7 if you recall so seeing yet a third would not be unexpected. :icon_smile:
So basically you’re saying that if you intend to replace the ROM it’s better to do a Custom Backup? Or after you do a ROM upgrade it’s better to not do a Restore?
Did you need to do a Restore? Had you lost your data? Would putting the old ROM back in and doing another Restore resolve the problem?
After restoring the data, I could not do anything with my phone. After booting up, it just froze. That being the case, I could not connect it to my computer to reinstall the ROM.
