I have recently upgraded to win mobile 6 and everything is working great.
The only problem that i seem to have is when i shut the phone down and turn
it back on the home screen reverts to another home screen file.

The file it goes to is always the same. Is there a way to set a home screen
file as default?

Any help with this would be great.

Make sure you are not hard resetting the phone.

The way I turn it off is hitting the power button on the side and choose
power off. Also are there any help files about the xml coding for the home
screen files? Ive been working it out little by little, but i cant seem to
find the plugin ids.

I actually found the problem. Its an issue with the my5 favs module that
t-mo uses. I found out how to correct it and also found loads of info now
for the screens and plugin ids.

He's not- from the description of the problem I assume he has a T-Mobile
Dash which just had a WM6 upgrade ROM released.

His problem is a known bug with the upgrade- (one of three critical bugs!
The others are that reminders are silenced forever if the "vibrate"
profile is selected, and full screen media player videos play in the
wrong orientation, IIRC.)

Work arounds for all three have been covered at xda-developers.com, and t-
mobile.howardforums.com.
