:? Dear All
Hope this message reaches you'll in good health and best of spirits.
I am new to this forum, so please help me.
After upgrading to WM2005 and after installing Hima DOC Tools v1.0, My O2 Xda II has become slow and my Storage Memory has decreased from 32.00 MB to 7.40 MB. When I install any program and / or put any Data in the Main Memory in place of Storage Card (SD Card), it reduces the Storage Memory, I thought the Program Memory usually reduces instead of Storage Memory.
Please clarify my doubts and if there is any procedure to increase the Storage Memory to 32.00 MB or default of 64 MB, please explain how to do it in simple manner, since I am just an end user, will not understand technical language.
The details of my o2 Xda II after upgrading to WM 2005 is :

It's not a BlueAngel ... It's probably a wizard. BlueAngels run on Intel XScale, and yours is a TI OMAP. The developers here have not ported linux to the OMAP yet.
thanks !

Thanks a ton! I've been waiting for nearly 6 months for this!
Can you please tell us what all tools did you use and how did you go about customizing and translating the ROM? And how much work is remaining? The reason I ask is because you said you were busy, so I feel the best way to get this done fast is to 'open up' the project a bit. Then we all can chip in as and when we get the time.
Final Q: Considering that the PDAL has only 48 MB RAM, wouldn't it be better to use WM5 AKU 3.3+ ? I mean, any idea how much extra RAM does this consume?

Did you flash your PDAL with this rom yet or just asking ?
Everything is translated by now and link in the first post is also updated.
Flash this rom and let me know if you find anything else...
PDAL has around 50 MB ram and this rom uses 12.5 MB pagepool aperture...

What tool do you recommend btw, for flashing the ROM? Also, does this include the radio and extended too?
Sorry, but I'm new at this and can't seem to find any generic guide here.. All the stuff I seem to find are htc or other newer device specific
Why are we PDAL users being ignored? I mean, getting a WM touchscreen device with WiFi, BT w/ A2DP, Quad GSM, Class 10 edge, 2MP camera etc... for just $120 - it's no joke!

You don't need any special tool to flash your PDAL, Rom Update utility is included, now don't ask me the whole update procedure, which is:
Connect your phone to active and start update utility and click on few "Next" buttons and wait... and it's done...
I have no idea but i bought this phone after my kjam and i found it smarter...
I can't update via the PC as my USB connector is broken
I thought there was a way to directly update by copying it to the SD card?
This is way to change PAGEPOL for I-mate PDAL WM6:
1. Open in HEX editor WMUPDAT.DIP
2. Found HEX code C0 FA 01 14 EB 00 84 A0 3F 01 84 F0 6F D8 08 B2
3. Change 60 FA 01 14 EB 00 84 A0 3F 01 84 F0 6F D8 08 B2
4. Now you will have 6 MB PAGEPOOL

Yes you can flash your device from SD, you need format card to FAT16 and copy to the root directory WMUPDAT.DIP

Dexter,
Follow these instructions to flash your phone using SD card.
- Format your MicroSD card to FAT16.
- Copy "WMUPDAT.DIP" to your MicroSD card.
- Insert your MicroSD card in your PDAL
- Remove Battery for 5 seconds and install it again.
- Now Press Left Soft & Power Button simultaneously.
Your PDAL will start flashing itself and will be restarted automatically when done.
NOTE: do it at your own risk, I take no responsibility if you damage your device.
Ah, so it's left softkey and power! I knew the general procedure, but tried everything except that (OK and Power, Camera and Power, etc..) How did you figure it out?
Anyways good news is that the ROM flashed sucessfully!
I have a few suggestions/comments/doubts:
1) How do I get back to the default windows SIP? PocketCM makes it impossible for me to do anything!
About modding the ROM:
2) How do you go about replacing the SIP? I want to remove PocketCM permanently and get back the original SIP.
3) What effect does reducing the PagePool have? Does it mean more Storage Memory, or more Main Memory? And would it have any negative effects, like lower performance or maybe lower number of programs running at the same time?
4) Finally, what tools do you guys recommend for working with ROMs? Like I've said before, every guide/tool I find here seems to be HTC/Device specific, so how do I start off? Also, can we test PDAL ROMs in the Windows Mobile Emulator?
Thanks a MILLION pawaa, for being the FIRST person to contribute anything of significance to the cause of the PDAL! Hopefully this would also encourage other developers/modders/cooks? to start coming up with more cool stuff soon. At the least, you can count on me for releasing some stuff in the near future .... as soon as I figure out how

Flashing procedure through SD card is very common, so it was not hard enough to find the appropriate key combination...
Congratulations! You are the 2nd in the world who own a PDAL with English WM6 Professional (I haven't seen anyone claiming that he has English WM6 on his PDAL yet...)
Here are the answers to your questions:
1) - After flashing this rom you can install any Sip which can be found around in a cab file, i made this rom for myself and later on decided to share it with other PDAL users so they can enjoy the benefits of WM6 on their PDAL device too. PCMKeyboard does every thing just fine, nothing is missing in it, you can even copy and paste things by keeping enter key pressed and choosing the desired action from the menu... default SIP has very tiny keys which can't be pressed without stylus, so there isn't any point of taking the stylus out even for a single letter entry.
2) - You have to do it manually (like i do).
How to remove PCMKeyboard:
- Remove the following entries from "user.hv" and "default.hv"...
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]
"DefaultIm"="{F9A103FF-B5E2-4eae-8C34-0ADC26116C4C}"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409]
"Layout Text"="COMP IME"
"Ime File"="\\windows\\compime.dll"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]
"SuggAutoCorr"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9]
"XT9SupportMSSip"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{BB25F2EB-688C-4698-ADFC-F422A148AD4F}]
@="PCM Keyboard"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{BB25F2EB-688C-4698-ADFC-F422A148AD4F}\DefaultIcon]
@="pcmkeyboard.dll,0"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{BB25F2EB-688C-4698-ADFC-F422A148AD4F}\IsSIPInputMethod]
@="1"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{BB25F2EB-688C-4698-ADFC-F422A148AD4F}\InprocServer32]
@="\"\\Windows\\pcmkeyboard.dll\""
- Remove the following files from dump directory...
Code:
pcmKeyboard.dll
Default.skin
Dream.skin
Touch.skin
Light Blue.skin
Simple White.skin
English (small).dict
French (small).dict
German.layout
Polish.layout
Russian.layout
Spanish.layout
Czech.layout
English.layout
Français.layout
Now PCMKeyboard is completely removed from the rom.
You can add any SIP by following these instructions...
- Find your desired SIP package or CAB file (in the case of CAB file you need to unpack it's files and registry).
- Add files to dump folder.
- Add your SIP's registry entries in default.hv / user.hv files. ([HKEY_CURRENT_USER] entries in user.hv and [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT] & [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE] entries in default.hv)
- Set it as your default SIP by adding it's CLSID in user.hv as following and you are done with SIP.
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip]
"DefaultIm"="{CLSID-OF-YOUR-SIP}"
3) - It is said that...
Code:
The "page pool" is essentially cache between the storage ram (where all the db/binaries are written to) and the program ram. certain things have to be loaded into the pagepool before executing in program/main ram. So in general, increasing the pagepool usually speeds up launching applications, however it reduces the actual program ram so you can't run as many things at the same time...
(Copyrights 2007 harwantgrewal)
It really doesn't matter much if you have a 10MB, 8Mb or 6MB Page Pool.
As far as speed and performance is concerned,you can hardly find much of a difference between a 10Mb page pool or 6Mb,it's hardly noticeable over all.So just keep what the cooker has specified in the Rom.Nothing to worry,just enjoy the magic created by the magnificent cookers...
(Copyrights 2007 zabardast_1)
4) - There are a lot of tools you can use to manipulate a rom when it's in a binary file, all you have to do is "To take it's binary out of the ROM", rest of the procedure is same in all devices except partitions structure & memory addresses.
Here is the unpacking and packing procedure for PDAL roms...
Required tools are attached with this post with the name of "PDAL_Packing.Unpacking.Tools.zip", download it and extract it to a folder (Suppose "PDAL")
Unpacking Procedure:
- Place "WMUPDAT.DIP" in the folder "PDAL"
- Execute Unpack.bat, wait and when it's done you will have dump folder to play with.
Packing Procedure:
- Replace/Add/Modify any File/Registry/Package/Module in the dump folder.
- Execute Pack.bat and wait, when it's done you will have updated "WMUPDAT.DIP" file ready to be flashed...
That's all buddy, you can try loading binary rom into an emulator and here is a link to Emulator Rom Kitcken
I don't think that anybody else would cook a rom for PDAL unless he don't own a PDAL device, because they are cooking for their own devices only...
NOTE: Don't mess the things up and don't ask any newbie question which is already answered in this forum, 3 out of 4 of your questions were already asked and answered in this forum long time ago, so please search-a-lot before asking any question, like i do...
