Original WM6 - P3300, MDA Compact III General

Hi
I've been trying different roms on my p3300 and I installed today again the original wm6. I noticed that after installing the basic OS it started installing other files. Is that the "External Rom"? Is there any way to avoid it or even better is there any rom with just the basic OS?
Thanx

With WM5 I was doing soft-reset before automatic installation of "extra" software.

Thanx I did that and nothing else was installed. Besides Tom Tom not being installed I have'n noticed any other difference and it seems to be working a little faster.
Does anyone know how I can uninstall the HTCHomeplug that comes with wm6 cause I always deactivate it but I'd rather remove it completely and free some valuable space
And is there any way I can extract from the rom the cabs of the extra programs being installed, so I can check firsthand if something should be installed or not?
Sorry for all the questions
Thanx in advance

Use Total Commander and navigate to Extended_ROM (just write it in as path). You'll find cabs there.

Thanx a lot!
The cab files that I extracted are the following:
MP_CVSDcpl_20060718.cab
PP_AKv30-DefaultPage_ALL.CAB
PP_AKv33-DefaultPage_WWE-0409.CAB
PT_BKL.CAB
USSD_Service_4.2.1.CAB
MP_TT6_Voice05_WWE.cab
MP_ttn_8320.cab
Besides the last two that are for tom tom does anyone know what the rest are for...
Thanx

I don't remember, but you could copy these cabs on PC and look into it (unpack with archiver) - maybe you will find out...

Questions after upgrading to WM6 - Help...

Ok, I have upgraded my Hermes to WM6 using the ROM on the wiki site.
I have installed all my apps and everything was looking great. I then noticed the Extended ROM and half a dozen cab files. So I have installed all of these as assumed they were some sort of patches.
I carried on installing my apps but now after a reboot the SIM PIN Lock entry screen looks a really basic (non 3d) button version and the keypad that should be shown when pressing the green call button isn't displayed I just get a white screen.
I have installed the following apps:-
eWallet 5
Tomtom 6
PocketBreeze 5.2
Phone Alarm + VistaMedia skin
Any ideas on what has happened?
Do I need to re-flash my phone?
Help..
Thanks
Mark

Which version have you upgraded to?? If it is v0.20.x (thats 0.20.0 or 0.20.1) this is a known issue, seriously recommend reading the thread concerned with the ROM you are flashing before going ahead (the link for the thread is in the table aswell).

Yes it was the Vanilla version. I have done the wrong one?
Can you point me in the direction of the fix if there is one?
Thanks again

The best thing to do is to is to perform a 'Hard Reset' which will reset your device back to the same point as when the rom was flashed, so you will need to reinstall everything. Suggest you install the same things again but dont install the skin....this might be incompatible with WM6 (since nearly all skins are designed for use in WM5).
BTW, i would take some time to read through the wiki and familiarise yourself with the various reset types and other literature on ROM upgrades, the knowledge in these pages will hold you in good stead for the future sir

Just one other question. Should I have ran all the CAB's from the Extended ROM?

Not really....the best thing you can do is to leave the ext_rom alone and just manually configure your MMS and WAP settings by hand. The ext_rom (again) contains cab installers that are designed for WM5.....while most should work in WM6 there are some that dont. ext_rom is something i havent used for ages in XDA-Live (v0.1 and now 0.2) and I dont miss it.
Just install the apps you were running (phonealarm and others). The ext_rom doesnt do much except run carrier based stuff (like themes and automatic settings).

Hermes Touchflo: anybody willing to give a proper roundup?

Hi,
i was reading through the posts in this forum and over at 4winmobile.com regarding the porting of Touchflo and all the apps unique to Wizard.
What I still don't get is this:
Is there a "working" CAB already out now? So that I would just need to install that CAB to have Touchflo?
If there is, which would be the best ROM to go with it.
Are there any complete Roms, that have Touchflo already enabled?
How stable is the whole thing anyway?
Maybe somebody who is really into this can give us all an update/ walkthrough on this topic, since information on it is widely scattered over several posts at the moment.
Thanks for your efforts,
trial
roundup... touchFLO is currently only buttonFLO on the hermes.
and at SchapsROM it is only Buttonflo with Blackscreen...
so, there is no proper ROM avaible, that has at least touchButton installed by default?
What about the other questions I asked?
anybody?
thx

"ButtonFLO" is known to work well with blackmajik and most latest roms.

There is no need to install a cab to assign the button. Just set any button to run the app.

Yes, there is some rom flying around. black majik + "ButtonFLO" but you have to assign the button. The steps to make it function are in there. Just follow.

TouchFLO was not meant/made for hermes but for HTC Touch therefore it doesnt run perfectly but some people at 4winmobile.com are still working on making it better.

There's a Black Majik ROM that was re-cooked with the added files in Windows over at 4winmobile. I think Slueth? cooked it but not 100% sure. I'm actually using it right now, but I didn't add the ButtonFlo CAB cause the first time I used it, it worked for a little, but as you add apps it acts weird, so, I'm using just the ROM and it's absolutely awesome! Super stable, etc!
guys, thanks for all your replies!
will continue my search with your infos now, and add to this post, as i have more info myself.

Install .netFamework and you'll be able to install HTweak...
That's actually a message which should tell you that you don't have NETCF installed. Search for a NETCF cab, either NET CF 2 or 3 willl do.
EDIT: Ah well, redundant now!

Lots of the new ROMs don't have .NET framework because there are two different ones now. 2.0 and 3.5, and each have benefits and drawbacks. And actually, I don't use any software that requires .NET, so that's an extra few megabytes of storage for me.

Thats true, about 7 mb on my main storage are quite annoying... but don't you use tweaking software like HTweak or Schaps etc.? Do you know alternative which dont need Net CF?
yeah, would also be interested to know of alternatives and what software you are using

If you know what "tweaks" you need you can make a cab, is what I did. One cab that does all my personal tweaks and installs my server's security certificate.
Schaps did a great job but I never install it as I don't feel the need....

1. find it here,there is some text and a pic
2.settings>today>themes
3.you have to find tom tom installation (cab or exe)...i think there is a file in the wiki(slick my signature) because when you flashed the rom,all that was included in the original one was replaced or deleted
install it and it'll work
also,now that you have to download it anyway, i'd suggest you trying iGO6 iGO8,it's great and much smarter and less annoying than tomtom

Thnx for sharing there m8, exidently deleted my my meschle rom folder on my pc.
Now have most of them back, gonna go back to a 3.x vanilla or test the others again to compare them to the wm6.1 roms
Missing important file..
There was a .cab file posted by meschel in his original post which enabled 'messege sent' notification when sending a txt.
The rom's have not got this feature as standard and need this .cab file to fix it.
Its looking really hard to find as people only have the roms and not the extra .cab file he posted too..
Anyone have it?

You can also disable that notification with Schaps Advanced Configuration (3.3 is the newest I guess)

close applications by using tskmgr (third paty application) if not needed files are to be deleted, which otherwise are locked ( risking to mutilate other apps though!)
