Help with Helmi's AKU3.3 v1.2

Hi guys,
I love Helmi's ROMs and have the AKU3.5 ROM but would really like to have Smartdial and Internet Sharing working again so could someone post a link to Helmi's AKU3.3 v1.2 rom again? I've tried searching, googling, even scouring non-English web sites to no avail so if anyone has a rapidshare/megaupload link it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Yeah.. I would like to have this classic ROM too.. all the links I found are all dead.. and it's no longer in the ftp.
I hope there is anyone nice enough to upload a copy.. thanks.

Thanks HDJ80. The link itself works fine but there are no seeds online now. No worries though as I stumbled onto another copy using the emule search. I up'd it to Rapishare for anyone who's interested.

Hey thanks man. I had no idea what emule was... and this is really what I needed. But i have O2 XDA Exec (HTC Universal)... And this ROM looks like its for QTEK. I know they're both Universals... so I guess there won't be any problems right?

Thank you so mach,I also searched this rom for a long time.

It's fine, I flashed it on my o2 with no issues.

Ok. Thanks again.

Worked like a charm for me too. Thanks!

One problem I have, in fact, is that when I press the end call button to minimise an application it instead disconnects GPRS. Has anyone else had this problem and do they know of a solution? Thanks.

How about you use the OK button to minimize instead.
Or hit the winkey then hit Today.

Good ideas, DaVince. Unfortunately I have WisBar Lite, which changes the operation of the X, hence I use the end call button.
I seem to have fixed it though. I fiddled with the Always Connected registry setting (using RegistryWizard, which I'm sure wasn't the best idea!) and now it seems to do the proper job.
Thanks for your help.

Serious need for a working Internet Sharing cab!!

There are some Mad Genius in this forum, I am amazed at the things you come up with and how quickly you get it stable. I have searched, pleaded, and researched to get a working Internet Sharing cab.
I am listing the existing cabs by Duttythroy, Shamanix, and myself.
I already know a lot of roms exist with Internet Sharing include, but not to offend any of the existing rom makers, you guys are doing an exceptional job. But as of today December 10, 2007, Schap's 4.01 Lite is the most responsive and stable rom available for the Hermes. The only reason I have not stuck with it, is because I need Internet Sharing, if you ever use the Hermes on a 3G network as a modem you will be impressed with its constant rate, no need for a Network Card.
Thanks Shamanix for all the work you put in trying to get this to work. Duttythroy was almost there as well.
I will definitely have a nice donation for the person that can finally fix this issue.

If you are going to make a recommendation, please make the best recommendation. If I were going to do a Full Rom it would be Schap's 4.01 Full, if I wanted his latest I would go with 4.22. The reason for Schap's 4.01 Lite, I don't need nor use all the things in the Full Rom and I need the space to install the programs that I do use. In my and a lot of others opinion, Schap's 4.01 and Shamanix Grass 1.13 are the best roms currently available for the Hermes.

I've had a hell of a time trying to get Internet Sharing back into a ROM that removed it (honestly, why the **** would cooks do that?). Adding all the IS files and the registry entries from the package .rgu file isn't enough. Something else seems to be missing. Oh bother. I guess I'll check the dependencies myself...

Internet Sharing Cabs
Here are two cab files that may allow Internet Sharing to be installed on a device that it was not originally build with.
You'll need to run cab 1 first, reset, then run 2. If all is well and correct, you'll have internet sharing working.
If not - back to the drawing board.
Edit- back to the drawing board. I'll post the new cabs after I reflash my cell and do some more work.

Thank you very much matt!!!

Come on Matt!
If this thing works, I have an obligation to my word.
I just Pm dgates71 saying I would be willing to also donate to the Mad Genius who figures this out.
I'll give it a try and post back.
Thanks
Edit: Sorry Matt, Didn't work for me.
I have high hopes though.

I found this combination would allow it to work on my phone after installation - even though it's already in place. I'll go ahead and strip it out of my rom and keep at it. I know it's close.

exactly what are the errors? I'd need to know to figure out why it can't be installed as cab. Sorry, the cab was not tested as my rom already has IS cooked into it.

the cab installs just fine but when trying to make a connection via usb with IS it fails (connection error or smth)

The bubble says: "Cannot connect for unknown reason"

any progress? anyone?
I'm still digging around.
I know schaps will be including it in 4.30 Lite.
I still would like to get a working solution, cab or otherwise.

Need a feedback from someone who has tried it!
HAPPY NEW 2008!

looks good
works great
the touch movement is so smooth & light to use....unlike the touch flo with some on the roms

and this seems to be the cab...

working great
Hi dudes, just install it, working great on Trinity. really smooth, amazing stuff, thanks for the great post bro.

yes i think many will be shocked at how good this home cab really is
you guy need to try it....what have you to lose

The directories in the German WM6 version don't match.
For example directory "start menu" is "Startmenü".
The PointUI Software does not find the programs.

I have loaded it on my Trinity running AX3L 3.12. It all seems to be working ok except that the time won't change to 24hr mode and the dialer won't work in the call history. I've tried changing the region etc., it still dials and I get a message from my provider saying that it is not a valid number. If I go to my normal call history in Windows 6, it works as normal.
Also, touch flow doesn't seem to work proplerly outside of the Home environment. I have uninstalled my 1.41 touchflow because it conflicts with the Home app gestures. So now touchflow only works within the Home app.
If I go to Wifi settings, Home takes me to the GSM data connection settings, not Wifi settings. The battery icon at the top doesn't indicate charging, and although I haven't tested Home for very long, it may be a battery eater...too early to tell for sure.
For the first incarnation, this looks very promising.

any problems just sign up to there forum
they are a very helpful bunch of people

Tried!
Works!
Lived 2 minutes.
Uninstalled!
I don't really like the touch things, neither flow not this.
Plus, it hung several times while I tried to set weather location for my city.
Also, I have my Trinity all black, this is nice, but blue.

i hope this will be available in android.. as as 1 of the gui!!... great..

Looks nice but is there any easy way to get into the contacts from this software?
Would be nice if one could change the colour of it too.

Revised version with a little more customization available for download already. these developers do listen!

Version 1.0 had some language issues.
Version 1.01b drained my battery within 1/2 day.
Best "Finger"-Software but not stable on the P3600.

have had it for 2days on my m700 working great very finger friendly battery nothing unusual to speak off the same as always and im using Schaps Wm6 WWE rom which by the way rocks

Great product and for free. Love it!
Definitely worth a donation to keep it free and updated

Dialer keypad buttons Transparent!! (regedit oops)

hello everyone,
First a big thanks to K for his beautiful roms. I am currently using K's 1.30a (december) rom, and I love it.
But, my problem....... I was playing around in the registry yesterday, and recall setting something along the lines of "transparent dialer keys" (dumb idea #1). I noticed that it didnt do anything, so I left it (dumb idea #2).
Today, I had to restart my phone, and then went to make a call and guess what. The dialer keys are transparent!! It makes it look like hte phone is freezing, but I can still use the empty spaces to dial.
Does anyone know WHERE in the registry this key is? I can definitely set it back ( I believe it was a 1 or 0 setting), but only if I can remember where it is.
If anyone can help me, I would be eternally grateful. Otherwise I will have to go about upgrading to K's next newest rom (was going to eventually anyway), and/or finding a new dialer skin to install.
Heres to hoping someone knows!

any body ?

try this, but if doesn't work, plz hard reset ASAP. and don't forget to make a back up data first (just PIM, Message not the SYSTEM, afraid the last registry will follow).

Thank you sir!
Does it matter that I'm on a Hermes and thats a Kaiser dialer?
I will try this in about an hour.. thanks again!!

it works on hermes. it's made look alike (i think).
report here if anythinh happen.

Well I installed it, and it asked me to reboot. Upon restarting, the phone skin was completely unchanged! I think I'm just going to suck it up and upgrade to one of the newer roms, again. Thanks for your help though.. I included a pic of what it looks like .. its pretty interesting.

Try this one

nope! same old thing. I'm pretty sure the reg value I changed is what's causing it. I will never find it though (I'm surprised there isn't a big map of what sections of the registry do what .. even for windows!)
Not a big deal thought, New rom for me. (i will be documenting everything thsi time!)

Weird but cool . I think I need that registry if you find them to protect my billing from my lil' bro. (just kidding). Good luck to u.

Looks and works great on my HTC TYTN RU version. Thanks a lot. The only problem is the previous "green" short call list.

I've got the same problem!!!!
With a P4350 when I install any dialer (tried some of them) I've got the transparent keys.
Right now no solution to the problem

[SOLVED] Remove HTC Volume Control

Edit: See Post #7 for the solution!
This thread was originally posted with this title:
[REQ] Custom ROM without HTC volume control
Hello,
Does anyone have the time or inclination to make a ROM without the volume control? I only ask because I've so far found no way of disabling the program.
Basically I've discovered that the standard WM dialer is more responsive and more intuitive than the Diamond one while using about 8MB less memory. The problem is, the in-call volume won't work unless the HTCVolumeControl can be disabled or removed.
I'm going to follow up this request with a noob question - how easy is it to take an existing cooked ROM and remove applications?
Many thanks

Cooking a ROM without Volume control is easy. Just remove the DIAMOND Volume Control from your kitchen.

Many thanks for the reply! I don't currently have a kitchen.
If I were to find a chef who is willing to let others alter their work, how long would it take a novice to achieve?

Try VIC's ROM for example. Also take a look at: Cooking Guides for Ultimate Noobs.

Thanks again. I've had a look at VIC's ROM, looks good. I'll have a look at that guide when I have some spare time.
How much time would you guess it would take to do the job? I'm a complete noob but fairly quick learner.

Isn't there an option to disable this in one of the tweak progs, either schaps adv. config or diamond tweak, I'm sure one of the two can do this.

This option does exist in Diamond Tweak but it doesn't work.
I've searched the forum and found a manual method that involves stopping a service called HTCVolume, however that service doesn't appear to exist in the latest ROMs. HTC must have changed something which would also explain Diamond Tweak not working.

For me, the 8MB free came when using the standard WM dialer rather than the HTC one. It's not as pretty but it does match my altered windows colour scheme. I'd rather have a phone that works properly than one that just looks nice - which is why I'm not using TouchFlo 3D either.
I would guess I'm getting an additional 1 or 2 MB with the volume control also gone.

Just remembered, I also ran a cleanup with SKTools, I suppose it is possible that caused it to revert. I'll have a play and see if I can recreate.

Seems the DLL?? messes up the font of the USB PopUp and SIP Selection screen Will try to cook a ROM without the VolumeControl to see if you can disable it without causing trouble to the fonts on the device..

I'm already using a ROM without the HTC Volume Control, Panosha Simple 1.1, so I don't need this cab anymore. It was invaluable before I switched ROMs!
I can confirm that the SIP selection text is already broken, without installing this cab. HTC must have relied on their dialer dll for the fonts on these other menu screens.

Not had that problem, except for the one time mentioned above which was caused by SKTools.
It's a very plain ROM - no Manila, Opera or even MMS! However, it suited my needs and I was able to track down all of the cabs I needed eventually.
