hi vibranze,
thanks for your contribution, will try it out later today.
cheers!!
Hi Vibranze,
managed to try out the rom, and here's some of the possible ideas you may want to take...not whinning here, since i reverted back to a original rom after that. Just hope to help you make something better.
1. softwares like resco explorer and photo viewer are great, but when i try to register them under my username, it seems to be unable to stay registered. You can probably provide auto installation for the programs, but not auto registration, since not many users go by the name of vibranze Same situation for handy task.
2. you could probably insert TCPMP for users to use, since its probably the best video player out there.
3. inclusion of a battery bar similar to the one used by SPB pocket plus. its definetly something useful for p525 users out there, since the battery life for the unit is not amazing.
thats all i can remember for now, but its a great 1st time effort. i look forward to the second rom, if there is any.
cheers

Hi Raven,
Thanks for the time for testing my ROM and the constructive comments, appreciated it You owned an Asus P525 too?
1. Yes, this is what I want to find out too. I tried Sorg's ROM and found that the owner's name is empty but the resco explorer is already registered to Asus PDA and it stayed registered even I fill up the owner's name. Any idea how to achieve it?
You mentioned auto installation, but after you install you still need to register it. By putting them into the ROM, you just need to change the name and re-register it, safe the installation step.
2. I tried to put it in but there is not enough space for it, maybe need to figure out what other files that can be deleted. I'm considering coreplayer since it has less files and all the plugins is already built-in.
3. Yes, I will put in the battery status indicator. Do you know any of them that light in footprint and free?
I would like to find the free useful apps with small footprint to incorporate into the new release that will coming soon.
Help me test it again, ok
Cheers,
Vibranze

1. He cracked it.
2. Core player is still missing a lot of feature compare to TCPMP.
3. I personally prefer Wisbar Lite and it's included in my customized rom. But if you want something even lighter. U can try pBar here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284952

1. Yeah, I also registered it under my name but when I change owner's info, then I need to re-register again. This is not the case with Sorg's ROM, wonder how he cracked it
2. I decided to use TCPMP0.72RC1 with all the plugins mentioned in pxdxa.com
3. I've got battery status ext, it's a freeware. It can display incoming outgoing calls duration as well as sms.

Hi Vibranze,
Glad to see that you are trying to come up with another rom, am looking forward to it. Yea, i've got a P525 too.
Celedial is a useful alternative, but is it possible to add in Smartdialing instead? I recall seeing a helpful forumer posting some must have apps for P525 and this was included.
Also, the WM new menu found in other roms from Jackleung and Sorg is pretty useful as well. these are the suggestions i can come up with at the moment.
hope this helps,
cheers
Raven
Hi Jackleung,
glad to see you here to give out pointers. have enjoyed your customized rom alot but sorely missed the E-java program, which made me revert to a normal rom, but kudos to you.
cheers
Raven
Smartdialing "was" a must have but Celedial beat it for smaller footprint, faster response time, better and more user friendly search (e.g. search by number, random search instead of search from beginnng). And it's compatible w/ Eten's phone skin DLL (smartdialing is not) so that you can customize yr dialing skin freely.
For E-java, I never run Java on my P525 and that's why I remove it. And you can always install it back later.

hi raven,
glad to know that you are also one of the p525 owner
i just released a new version, kindly check it in the first post. already included the apps you mentioned
personally i also feel that celedial is better and nicer than smartdial, only 1 dll file so it's very small in footprint.

Just one suggestion, it may not be wise to remove Windows Media player because TCPMP doesn't fully support MMS protocol. U need that to listen to streaming media.

Oh I see, noted. I removed it because of space concern. Later on I found that by directly add/delete files via dump directory can take more files rather than using addfile and delfile command, not sure why but this is a fact

hi jack,
I found this tool called CeleSetup (http://www.yonsm.net/read.php?300), looks like a new way to build and customize ROM.
My chinese is not that good so I'm a bit blur after reading the whole article. You may want to read and try it, then post another great article on building ROM using CeleSetup

I read this before. But don't see any extra benefit here since initflashfile.dat can do most of the things already

initially, i thought all the apps (including the lnk and registries) can be compressed in .tgz file and only run when they are being called but this is not the case.
Hi fellows,
Well, it seems that the work is done! CREDITS to HELLONASTY and ERVIUS!!!!
We would like to invite you to try our new rom MARY 3.3.1 Super Lite, based on the latest available English language Operating System (WM6 5.2.1933 Build 18533.0.7.0)
80MB storage!
Aprox. 30MB free RAM!
This rom is so light, that if you leave your pda in the wind, it will fly away!
MARY 3.3SL - TO BE FLASHED ON WINDOWS XP: http://rapidshare.com/files/66073071/ROM_MARY_V3_3_SL.rar
MARY 3.3SL - TO BE FLASHED ON WINDOWS VISTA: http://rapidshare.com/files/66128715/ROM_MARY_V_3_3_SL_vista.rar

Pros: HIGHEST STORAGE 80MB, A LOT OF FREE RAM AND SPEED!!!!
Cons: It's up to you to let us know about it...don't forget to give us your feedback! Only like that we can improve the quality!
Changelog 3.3SL: Complete clean ROM! Nothing more to add...she's completely naked !!!!!!
Changelog 3.3.1SL (01.11.2007):
FLASH THIS ROM WITH THE MEMORY CARD INSERTED!!!!
-Complete clean ROM! Even more naked !!!!!!
-Even faster than previous release
-Working Smart Dialing
-Configurable MMS
-Colors and themes now corrected
-Windows Media Player, now fully functional
-Removed some useless files and folders (Battery Status Folder still inside...to be corrected on a previous release. If you install Battery Status-see link bellow-then the software will use that folder, so, only for those who don't install this application, this folder would be useless. Anyway, I suggest you install it)
-Smother speed
-Other small optimizations
-To enable the "H" icon for HSDPA, please install Schap's Advanced Config Tool (find the link bellow). However, even if you don't see the icon, HSDPA will be enabled if you activate it in Connections Settings.
This time, I propose to make something focused essentially on speed, stability, memory and storage rather than spending time with aesthetics.
So, inside you'll find basically only the Operating System, with its' basic functionalities. All the rest, you can install by yourself, according to your needs.
It doesn't make sense to fill storage, with applications that you will never need.
Concerning the aesthetics, there are a lot of themes out there...it's just a matter of searching!
I also want to share with you, the best way to make your updates of firmware, as most of the bugs that we find, are the result of a bad-flash. Most of the times, of you re-flash, the bugs disappear.
To avoid this, this is how I flash my roms:
1. Hard Reset your device, pressing OK at the end
2. Before it starts rebooting, make another Hard Reset, but now don't press the OK button. Instead, remove the battery!
3. Wait 1 minute. While you wait, remove the storage card and the SIM card as well
4. Put the battery inside the pda again.
5. Press the buttons Camera + Power + Reset (with the pen, on the bottom of the pda) until you see the screen with color strips
6. Insert usb cable
7. Start flashing the device, as you always do.
8. As soon as it reaches 100% on the screen of the pda, it becomes black for a couple of seconds. Then, make a hard-reset, and press ok.
9. Make another hard reset, but now, but now don't press the OK button. Instead, remove the battery!
10. Wait 1 minute
11. Re-insert the battery, memory card and SIM card
12. With the pen, press the reset button on the bottom of the pda until it starts.
13. Have FUN!!
P.S - I WON'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THAT RESULT ON USING THIS ROM OR FLASHING PROCESS. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
If you still have problems flashing, I advise you to see this page: http://www.trinityguides.info/
For those who loose their WIFI settings after a softreset, please follow these instructions (thank's dta1974):
[!] For prevent password and account dissapearing u should (you should make this procedure immediately after first soft reset ):
1. Set up your connection settings
2. Open IExplorer / Set up Internet connection / Open some internet page
3. Click Disconnect button to close internet connection
4. Hold power button and turn off your phone
5. Power on your phone.
After that procedure your password wont disapear. I think that you should repeat the same for mail account (set up mail account / try to send or recieve your mail / hold disconnect button / turn off your phone)
We hope that this meets to your expectations!!!

No, it won't be inside the rom. However, there will be links to the most popular softwares (cab). In this case, each one of us can install only what we need
This is the idea behind: have a system looking exactly how you like, and not how the cookers like. Have the software you think it's important, and not the software that the cooker thinks is important.
Bye
P.S- Does anyone have Microsoft Office splitted in cabs: one cab for Word, another for Powerpoint, another for Excel and another for One Note?
Having this, we can install only the office applications that we need!! If anyone has it, please post the links.

Yes.Yes.finally

hmmmmmmm, as Homer would say
waiting with bated breath! This sound very interesting!!!
But just how lite is lite?
Nice one, would be cool if *someone* made a GUI to automagically download new base roms, packages(from a central repository). You would download the GUI, select base, packages, mui files(?), press 'Cook', flash(SD Card method allowed).

Just to inform that there is already a ROM like that from Sammy Deluxe:

Of course if this is what the cook want, then it's great to have a nice and clean ROM , but then again, we cannot complaint if the cooker make HIS ROM with a lot of apps.
I hope this release can be the best of all, after all it is made by a PORTUGUESE 'dude'

Hi,
That's the difference between previous roms and this one: the previous roms were roms made for the cooker, and then he shared it with us.
This rom, is not about what the cooker likes, but instead, about making it 99% customizable.
That's the magic word: CUSTOMIZABLE
Bye
RELEASED!!!!
See first post!!!
HAVE FUN!!!
Some tips to cookers to obtain this free storage?
Nice, will try asap.
Has anyone read my previous post? I can provide storage&bandwidth if anyone's willing to create that 1-click kitchen Í described(it could support various rom&pkg repositories, I'd host one for sure).
Tadam, here it is, the long awaited (vaporware ? ), KisS20.5 rom. It might not bring you everything you expected, nor will it turn your ks20 into a brand new touch hd or whatever, but I think it's a bit better than KisS20.4.
As you've all waited for a long time, I'm also releasing a beta KisS20.x, work in progress on wm6.5 builds.
But, first, thanks to everyone who helped me building this rom here on xda and on Forum Mobiles, and special thanks to misterJP whose great work made all this possible.
::Tools & help: MisterJp, CopsFrance, Bepe, Ervius, No2Chem, Da_G, Cmonex, rickou26, weapons.b, farahbolsey, thorfr
Thanks to them. Forgive me if I forgot somebody.
ROM Information:
::Based on Diamond : CE 5.2.21109, build 20755.1.4.0 (full Xip+Sys Port)
::Based on 10E (february 2009 - spanish rom) for Modem/OEM/Drivers part
::Built with homemade kitchen
::For the start, only WWE version available
The philosophy behind this ROM is to have a small/optimized OS that could be easily personnalized. That's why I've only included small apps that don't evolve so much. Thanks to Preset Installer compliancy, all you have to do is to follow this tutorial to have your favorite apps automatically installed at first boot (you can choose for the apps you want, you're not forced to install everything). For those who prefer a zero effort Out Of the Box Experience, I'm also providing my own PI Package (it needs more work, but it's a good start). If you build one and want to share (only free apps, please), contact me and I'll update this post.
This rom is almost clean and most of the personalization stuff are in PI package, so if you want to do it by yourself, just don't install it.
I hope it's stable for everybody, if no bugs are found, I'll make localized builds. I'm still working on graphic driver replacement, but it's more complicated than I 1st thought, due to the fact that ks20 underlying drivers are built for wm6.0 and not wm6.1 (drivers architecture changed a bit, which makes almost any driver replacement break some dependancies)
For those who ask why flashing this rom over their stock lg rom :
::More speed (thanks to lots of optimizations)
::More stability (thanks to latest available lg drivers)
::Less battery consumption (thanks to WM6.1)
::Bugs fixed (but some are still there)
::SDHC support
What I didn't do :
* Didn't fix the gsm reload and backup battery bugs on recent builds. It doesn't impact KisS20.5 and has a low impact on KisS20.X build)
* Didn't include Extendir because it takes almost 10mb of ram, and there are still a few bugs (incompatibilities with some .net apps). As soon as it's good for our device (this shouldn't be long), I might update the rom to include it.
* Didn't include NetCF3.7 because it's a beta that has some compatibility issues (and don't include directx support).
* Didn't make a LZX version : need to do some tests to be sure it doesn't impact performance (doesn't seem it does, but I prefer to be sure). Anyway, it's not very useful as we wouldn't gain any program memory until someone () fixes the tools used to rebuild the rom.
Features:
Removed:
NetCF2.0
Microsoft Office One Note Mobile
Sample Music
Catalog
Welcome Center
LG Java Mobile
Included:
Microsoft Office 6.1
VoIP
NetCf3.5
PocketRar 3.8
Total Commander 2.5
FdcSoft Pim Backup 2.8
FdcSoft Task Manager 3.1
Esmertec JBed (2009 version)
Tweaks:
Too much to list
Known issues:
VOIP still doesn't work (not a real bug though, as it doesn't work either in official LG rom)
KisS20.5 : to have battery display in taskbar -> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock=0
KisS20.X suffers from gsm reload (shouldn't be a real problem), "backup battery very low" popup when battery is fully charged (both are due to drivers incompatibilities). There are also some issues directly related to wm6.5 build (each build has its owns bugs). No, 21234 "final build" is not bug free, it's more an "api freeze", so I guess the best is to use recent builds and hope upcoming builds will fix more bugs than they will add . If you only have 1 icon in start menu (the today icon), restart your phone and try to wait a few seconds more before entering your sim code.
Depending on the feedback I have, I may release a small rom update to fix possible bugs. If you don't want to flash twice in a week, you might want to wait a few days before flashing to be sure it's stable.
Upgrade Instructions:
THIS ROM IS ONLY TARGETED TO UNBRANDED PHONES.
If you have a branded phone, make a backup of your nv2 using LGMDP and then unbrand your nv2 using one of the tools present in "NV TOOLS" folder (both should work)(don't worry, you can do the opposite operation anytime you want). If you have any question, ask here. Flash to 20.4 or other unbranded rom and restore your newly unbranded nv2 (with LGMDP connected in normal mode)
READ CAREFULLY THE ABOVE LINE PLEASE
OK, ONCE AGAIN, JUST TO BE SURE.
If you want to use Preset Installer pack, it's time to unpack it to your sdcard
Connect Ks20 to LgMdp in Emergency mode as described here (or use the tutorial/drivers/software pack from ibanezman192 located in post 3)
Choose "Select Image", then click on "Original" button
On the first line, select the folder where you expanded the rom. Following lines should be filled automatically
Click on start and go drink some beer
When flash is finished (in approximately 10min), if you're using preset installer, it will prompt automatically so that you choose the cabs you want to install. When it's finished, reboot your phone and start using it
History:
[20 Oct 2009] KisS20.5b Rom 5.2.21109 / Build 20755.1.4.0
:: Removed Extendir (caused lag when resuming from standby with a sdcard containing many files)
:: Upxed a few more files
:: Added a few bluetooth tweaks to increase a2dp audio quality (thanks holy_moly)
:: Minor adjustments
[10 Aug 2009] KisS20.5a Rom 5.2.21109 / Build 20755.1.4.0
::Fixed secondary camera

::Added Extendir
[11 Jul 2009] KisS20.X Rom 5.2.23004 / Build 23004.5.3.0
This rom is a work in progress on wm6.5 and still has the few famous bugs. Although this generally doesn't prevent a normal use, if you absolutely need a stable rom (for work or whatever) or plan to use an Ui replacement (SPB, Manila...) which makes titanium useless, I suggest you to use the wm6.1 KisS20.5 until we manage to fix those annoying bugs (it might be a little bit faster, and use 5Mb less ram).
Apart from wm build, it's the same than KisS20.5.
[11 Jul 2009] KisS20.5 Rom 5.2.21109 / Build 20755.1.4.0
::Only unbranded version with latest Radio available (10E)
::Updated KS20 drivers to latest stock LG rom (10E - february 2009) + some other devices (Lg Incite, Toshiba G810)
::Added hardware acceleration support for most of the games available.
:atched kernel + some drivers for better performance
::Rewrote Lg InitApp (1st boot is faster / cleaner)
::Rewrote Camera Patch to have a faster load (c++ instead of .net)
::Wrote a small Shutdown app (shortcuts in Startmenu\System). You can use it in scripts with parameters : you can softreset (-r), hardreset (-h), shutdown (no param), + possibility to remove confirmation popup (-s).
::Changed "User Customization" to "Preset Installer" (you can choose programs to install on 1st boot).
::Fixed A2DP without the help of SRS Wow HD
::Removed SrsWowHd (you can still install it afterwards if you want)
::Updated apps (EsmertecJBed, PocketRar)
::Added direct access to Lg internal apps (engineer menu...)
::Added Arthemus' dialer skin/taskbar
::I knew it was a weak point on KisS20.4, so I really worked hard to optimize memory. There is almost 50% free memory more than in KisS20.4 (more than 51Mb free on 1st boot in KisS20.5, 46Mb on KisS20.X).

Does this rom feature the connection configurator tool from the 1.0f unbranded French rom ? This tool is very useful in configurating the data settings for us and allowing us to swap from an operator to another easely when we have several sim cards.

FAQ
I've got a message "trying to communicate with the phone" during flash and nothing else happens.
Try this.
My Wifi disappears sometimes in connection manager
Wifi driver is initiated during the boot, if it's not visible in connection manager (and the blue led blinks every 2 secs or so, just reboot your phone, that should fix it). The other reason wifi driver disappears is when you're connected to your pc through activesync. As soon as your disconnect, it's enabled again.
What's needed to build a rom for any language ?
Windows mobile comes into multiple packages (os, phone, office, shell, voip....) containing the programs. Most of these packages have a brother package containing the resources for a specific language (office_0409, phone_0409)...
OEM drivers made by lg also come into packages (oem_drivers, oem_bt...) and some of these packages have a brother package for the specific language (oem_bt_0409...)
To translate a rom, I need the packages for the related language (oem and wm).
Getting the packages for OEM is not difficult as I just need to unpack an official ks20 rom of the right language to get them. (so it means that this particular rom has to be downloaded somewhere on the web). But it takes some time to do it, so it's better if you give me just what I need (the whole oem folder is good). For that, just get my kitchen and follow the steps until you have an oem folder.
Getting packages for WM is more difficult because I can't take those from ks20 official rom as they are wm6.0 version and some don't contain everything needed. So I need to have the packages from a wm6.1 version. Just giving me a link to an HTC (or whatever) rom for this language is not sufficient because it would require me to find myself a way to extract this particular rom (if it's not protected, can be extracted and can be rebuilt) which takes time. So what I need is an archive containing packages, so that I don't spend multiple hours try to find how to get them. There are 2 ways to get them :
* get a rom for this language from any device, get a kitchen to extract the rom, extract it, rebuild packages, give me any 0409, 0408 or whatever packages it contains (be careful, I need packages, not only files whose name contain 040x).
* ask somebody who made a rom for this language to give you his packages.
Of course, I need the biggest number of packages you can find (for exemple, I include office in my roms, so if you find packages, but not the one for office, the rom won't be constructed correctly, when I'll do it, or it would need to be constructed without this specific package, which means it may show bugs not present on english/french roms, something I don't want to do.). A soon as I get all the packages I need, I should be able to construct a KisS20 rom for this language.
Please note that for wm6.5, I'll need wm6.5 packages, not wm6.1 (in wm6.5, many things have changed and some packages were added, so using packages from a 6.1 rom surely won't work).

Is it the one from the French rom ? the one from the HK rom has HK operator profiles, while the one from the French rom has the French ones, (such as Orange, SFR, etc etc)
As I've taken localisation files from the 10f branded, I guess profile information is empty. I'll check and update rom tonight if necessary.
To update PkgTools ;-)

Hi spocky12, are you ready to upload the new WM6.1 WWE ROM??
Maybe add a better (Touch-like) dialer, FTouchFlo and support for microSDHC cards?
Also, add a drop-down task manager in the upper right corner (don't if that's what you call Task Manager, though).
Finally, I personally like iContact better, as it starts faster than PocketCM
Almost everyting works as it should. I'll post it as soon as a figure out why camera can't take pictures anymore
As for user customization, it'll be up to you. Next rom will be UC compliant so I'm only working on os files/drivers with only a few tools embedded.

is it possible in future to make a "clean" wm6.1 rom - no tweaks, no removed or added programs just as is; maybe just lg menu if its possible to be ported?
THX Spocky you're the Men ( and French!!!)
I can't flash these days but I'm sure it's a perfect build with Voip working!!
(If anyone try give us answers, will try throught BT headset less than I week).
Once In France will feed U throught you're "signature" because men, if Voip works U change my life!!!! ( and bills!!!)
PS: oh SRS built in!!! (but still tweaky for BT headset...thx XDA-DEV)
THX again
Now it's working
Is it in French ?
As their name says, FR version is in FRench and WWE version is in World Wide English.
I successfully flashed and tested the Franch branded rom and there are a few issues (beside the camera)
- Contacts are broken, impossible to browse and add contacts using the contacts menu on this rom (installing pocket contact manager partially fixes this issue)
- No profile selector, not everyone uses crappy vodaphone live and SFR operator. (this can be fixed by manually entering the settings but it is annoying to do so, especially on a rom that is supposed to be unbranded)
- Only partially compatible with CE-Star which is a REAL disadvantage for people using their phone to read/write chinese and japanese texts.
There are real improvemments though
- The rom seems more stable
- The rom runs much faster
- The rom boots faster.
If it was not for the contacts issue I would have kept this rom, but contacts menu is just a must have on any phones.
Also the unworking camera is a big issue but I can leave with it.
Thank you for your feedback. That's exactly the kind of problems I expected and that's why this rom is in beta stage.

Here is Dynamites previous version ROM release thread;
http://3ppc.net/forum/showthread.php?p=95796
Initial Solution
Alright, a kind member of "htcgeeks forum" mzel has pointed me in the right direction of how to obtain a 4pda account.
Best method is to copy and paste small selections of text at a time into for example google translator. So just copy box titles for example to find out which box to type in login name and which is password, etc..
When accessing the create account page I made sure I was in the original Russian version of the website, not translated.
The 'Capthca' authentication test is actually a mathmatical equation. If you look very carefully in the middle of the box you will see what looks like 2 sets of 2 digit numbers. Something like this; sfakdhffdf33dskfjkf44ksdfkd ignore all those other numbers around the box they are just background noise.
In this example you take the 33 and 44 and then add them together. The answer to the 'Capthca' question would be 77. Each time the numbers will be different but you just follow this same method.
Once you have created your account and been through the email verification you can download the files straight away.
The A02 ROMs have an 8MB pagepool which is a lot more than LennySh ROMs. You might like to try different pagepool sizes to find the best for your liking. Here is a pagepool editor that is already setup to work with these A02 Roms:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4780661#post4780661
Also, the A02 RTM Rom is like a "Stock Dell Edition" as LennySh would say. The OS version is 5.2.19965 build 19965.1.2.3 This is quite nice because LennySh stopped creating "Stock Dell Edition" well before this version. Makes things a little cleaner for those users like me who wish to add their own program choices via UC to custom our install.
Cheers,
Dan

Hey DKing,
I translated this info from Dynamite on 4pda.
Quote:
Since Roma Series A02 and then built a modified driver illumination with low minimum level of brightness, fix loss of contrast of the screen, fix the bug with drawing of cascading menus from DKing

Information about A02 V8.0 Touch ROM

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=75310&st=520&p=1900015&#entry1900015
FTouchFlo, WkTask disabled by default.
(When ROM first installed you will need to manually enable these)
FTouchFlo before calibration screen unforgettable off.
(X51v will lock up if you run 'screen alignment' program with FTouchFlo enabled. You have to disable FTouchFlo before running 'screen alignment' program. If your X51v does lock up then a normal reset will free it back up.)
In a few words about FTouchFlo, TOOLS adds touch scrolling in all programs and menus, if the program does not require touch scrolling, in settings FTouchFlo can make this program a list of programs that will not work scrolling.
(Can create a list of programs where FTouchFlo will not interfere)
With strokes can quickly launch any 4 programs installed by the user.
Stroke default:
left to right - PIE
right to left - Messaging
top-down - WMP
bottom-up - x50Mix
(I have tried this and it does work. You can change what programs are activated by what movement)
EnlargeStartMenu - increased menus and the Start menu, ie It is possible to dispense almost without using the stylus.
(You can enable or disable large fonts for Start Menu and internal Program Menus, similar effect to WM6.5 in a way)

Hey DKing,
...
So does that mean we could easily add your graphic driver to his A02 V8.0 English ROMs? (The A05 is Russian).
Cheers,
Dan.

I think yes, it's possible and should be quite easy. But I think it's almost unneeded, because those ROMs already have GWES fixed that allows OS to work with buggy driver properly. So to have some useful effect (in stability), we should find and embed there original (non-patched) GWES, then use fixed video driver.
This just in...
Here is message I just received from Dynamite:
Quote:
Thank you for using my ROMs and thanks for mirrors
But I have to disappoint: the work on the new ROMs turned off because of outdated drivers, which in fact has not been updated since WM5.
Partly solve this problem is possible if you can find a Board Support Package (containing the source code drivers, and so the hardware-dependent software) for the X51v, but it is practically impossible
That level of help is way out of my league.
Problems with WiFi?
I don't know if anyone has problems with WiFi with these ROMs or not. I had a problem getting a connection but found a solution.
I installed the attached cab file WiFiService.CAB
Performed a normal/soft reset.
Then WiFi connected no problem.
Maybe might help anyone else who notices a problem with WiFi.
This only works for Dynamite A02 WM6.1 ROM!!!
Ok everyone,
I have now tested enough Pagepool sizes with Dynamites A02 ROM to make a suggestion.
*Try setting a custom Pagepool of 4MB*
I tried 8MB, 6MB, 5MB, 4.8MB, 4MB, 3MB. Trust me 4MB is the best option!!!
Performance will not really show up synthetically, ie; SKTools benchmarking.
*But in real world usage it becomes apparent*
I can guarantee that the X51v will feel 2x more responsive and faster!!!
I noticed 3D and software gaming ran smooth even in huge action sequences.
Screen tap response is stellar and you go through menus and file exploring quick as lightning.
File scrolling long lists like Windows folder is nice and smooth and I have not had problems with screen taps registering as double taps.
Hand writing in Notes was fluid and felt accurate/natural. Scrolling while viewing PDF files doubled in performance!!!
Also you will go from 28MB free up to 32MB free which is same free RAM as the older Football A07.
*So give it a go and tell me if you agree!*
This maybe the final ultimate WM6.1 we will see on our X51v?
Pagepool editor
It's pretty easy to do once you get use to it.
Here is a tool that can help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=536024
Here are instructions;
1.) Click "Load ROM"
2.) Select the Dynamite A02 WM6.1 .nb0 file
3.) Select the Dell X51v WM6.1 A02 (Dynamite) ROM from the list
4.) Select the 4MB pagepool size from the drop down box
5.) Click the CheckBox "Generate CRC File"
6.) Click "Run!"
7.) After the program has run, Click "OK" in the popup dialog box, then click "Exit"
8.) Transfer the updated files to your (FAT32 formatted) SD card, and flash your device
Simple as that!
Want to try alternate Bluetooth Stack?
I have made some slight modifications to the original Widcomm/Broadcom Bluetooth Stack that is from here:
http://www.mobilitysite.com/boards/...widcomm-axim-x50v-x51v-state-development.html
What I have done is modify it so that it intergrates perfectly with this Dynamite A02 ROM. It is not intended to be
used on any other ROM, so if you attempt to use on another ROM and notice problems/errors that is why.
If you want to try this out then here are the instructions;
1. Download the .zip file with 3x .cab files (would not attach to this xda post for some reason) can be found here;
http://forum.htcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=19569&postcount=80 or http://www.mediafire.com/?mgcmbxmez5i
2. Install the AWirelessPower_v101.cab
3. Install the BTSpeedSwitch.cab
4. Install the BBluetoothStack_v05.cab
5. It will ask to reset when completed, just click ok.
6. After reboot just turn the bluetooth on and off once by using the *taskbar tray icon* only, not hardware button.
This is just to activate the change to new Bluetooth Stack.
Need help? Follow these instructions.
01. Click on *taskbar tray icon* and select 'Bluetooth Manager'.
02. Select 'Menu' and then 'Paired Devices'.
03. Click 'Add' button.
04. Now click button to the right of the 'Device' box.
05. Your Bluetooth equipment should appear, select it's icon.
06. Now you should be able to enter a 'Passkey'.
07. Use a four digit number and press 'return' on the onscreen keyboard.
08. For example; If connecting with PC your PC should have a window pop up.
09. Enter the same four digit number into PC pop up window box.
10. It may take a couple of different trys to get that done.
11. Now if we have our devices paired we can click 'ok' to close.
12. Back at 'Bluetooth Manager' main screen click 'New'
13. Best method to create a connection between Bluetooth equipment is to let the X51v explore the bluetooth
device itself!!!
14. Select 'Explore a Bluetooth device' option.
15. Click on the paired device icon that we made earlier.
16. The X51v should now be searching the device for capabilities.
17. You can choose to have security turned off or on, I turn it off myself for a2dp, but if using bluetooth to share
an internet connection or transfering files then you may want to use the security encryption.
18. Sometimes it won't explore the device on first attempt, so just click the 'Back' button and then click on the paired device again.
19. Ok, now you should have a list of services to choose from.
20. For this example, I am clicking on 'A2dp SNK Service'.
21. Now you should be back at the 'Bluetooth Manager' main screen.
22. You should now have an icon for the connection we have just made.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
23. All we do to activate the connection from now on is just hold the stylus down on the icon we have made and
select 'Connect'. Makes it easy to get connection, now that we have done all the hard work.
24. You can click the 'Active Connections' tab to see connections that are currently turned on.
25. Hold stylus down on the icon we made and select 'Status' from the drop down menu. Here you can see signal
strength and data transfered.
26. To close a connection hold down stylus on the icon we made and select 'Disconnect' or you could press the
X51v wireless hardware button to turn Bluetooth off from the 'wireless Power' aplet.
Notes;
To use with UC sdconfig installation you need to modify your sdconfig.txt file to look like this:
LOCK: Disabled
HIDE:Enabled
CAB: \SD Card\AWirelessPower_v101.cab
CAB: \SD Card\BTSpeedSwitch.cab
CAB: \SD Card\BBluetoothStack_v05.cab
HIDE: Disabled
LOCK:Enabled
Of course you may already have other .cabs listed as well, just make sure you put these ones at the end of the
list in this order because of the 'reset after installation' built into bluetooth stack installation .cab file.
Also this line at the top of the sdconfig.txt file;
HIDE:Enabled
And this line the bottom of the sdconfig.txt file;
HIDE: Disabled
Are very important. This is also because of the 'reset after installation' window at the end of the bluetooth stack
installation. If the UC install window is not 'hidden' then you will not be able to see the 'reset' window or click on it.
Also, you don't need to add 'RST: Reset' at the very bottom of the sdconfig.txt file as it would now be redundant.
Extra Tool;
The included BTSpeedSwitch.cab it is just a speed switcher for the bluetooth if you wanted to slow the
connection down to 460800bps. Only needed for troubleshooting purposes if you had an unstable connection.
Which I have never had with this Bluetooth Setup.
*All program icons of these Bluetooth installations can be found in the menu Start/Programs/WirelessPower*
***Note that 'Bluetooth Explorer' is part of Microsoft Bluetooth Stack and not Broadcom Bluetooth Stack***

why not use makuu rom? it is the newest WM6.1 build and works fine for me..

Others and myself have noticed certain bugs and quirks with Makuu's 6.1 A09 523F, some are even noted on the official thread. It is possible for some users not to have picked up on these bug and quirks yet, due to everyone using their device for different purposes. But they are there and have not or can't be solved without recooking the ROM. There is no point working from a buggy base if you have another slightly older bugless base to work from.
At the moment their are no known bugs or quirks with Dynamites A02 RTM ROM. This is why others and myself are tweaking this ROM to create the perfect WM6.1 setup. Don't be fooled by this thread, this is my secondary thread I use to report to another audience. All communication I have with the community regarding Dynamites A02 ROMs are done on another forum elsewhere.
Unless another newer WM6.1 ROM with no bugs or quirks is released then Dynamites A02 RTM ROM should become the perfect WM6.1 ROM. We have already got the performance up on it and is fast enough to play games with no frame drops while sending audio output via a2dp over bluetooth.
Sorry no offense against you or this thread, only wanted to know if this ROM has advantages over the newer makuu release.. Thank you for the explanation!
No worries.
All cool... Sorry if I come across aggressive, I just don't get much luv here on xda. So yeah, I feel like I'm always having to defend myself. Maybe if there was a 'Thanks' system here then people would see that there are some that do know what they speak instead of us all being cowboys. But hey, I cut my teeth here, so I will continue to post here.
Cheers.
Dynamite A02 v8.0 RTM ROM with 4MB pagepool
Due to fact that I am relatively sure 4MB is best pagepool size for this ROM and that some users are requesting an already changed ROM to be uploaded.
Please find attached a Dynamite A02 v8.0 RTM ROM with 4MB pagepool.
http://www.mediafire.com/?w1xwt2izzmz
Please if anyone would like to add and post some mirrors that would be appreciated.

Wow, your first post!
Anyhow, usually it would be nice to have more/clearer details of your question, or a screenshot showing what you are refering too.
Ok, I think you are refering to the 'softkeys' at the bottom of the screen. The issue you have is nothing to do with this ROM at all and cannot be modified directly in this ROM so either you have modified the registry or you are using a 3rd party software which has caused this problem.
To solve this problem I suggest a utility called "Softkeys Control Panel Applet".
With this utility you can change them to whatever you want.
http://www.dotfred.net/SoftkeyAppletEx.htm
Cheers.
(How did you know it was my first post? Is there some big red number somewhere??) Yes, I'm mostly a reader, not a poster.
Anyway, the 'softkeys' usually have "calendar" on the left and "contacts" on the right, so I don't know why mine has "contacts" on both sides. This was after the fresh ROM flash. I'll look into the applet.
Thanks. (And a great, BIG thanks to all of you super-brains who like to dig into this stuff and make it great for the rest of us.)
DEVELOPMENT CLOSED

Application Add-ons
Here are a few application that you can install(if you will) with the ROM.
Here is a reason why I do not prefer to **** them into the ROM itself:
*) End user has the flexibility to install them if they like. Also removed when needed.
*) When coocked in ROM , they consume twice the space as they first get installed in /windows and them copied to their rspective folders in "Program Files".

Reserved for future use 2

Looks like it also built in my kitchen, here is the solution:
If you remove the opera mini lang folder, you remove these registry strings:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C4]
@="\"\\Windows\\Start menu\\Programs\\Opera Mini.lnk\""
"Flags"=dword:00000000
"ResetCmd"="\"\\Windows\\Start menu\\Programs\\Opera Mini.lnk\""
"Icon"="\\windows\\opera_icon.dll, 0"
"Name"="Button 4"
You all only have to replace the opera mini with your program and rewrite these strings. That's all, and the magic Button 4 will be back
Downloading the rom , would install and update the status.

thanks but i just found an easy solution without writing all those strings just go to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\
duplicate one of the folders ex 40C3 and rename it 40C4
and inside "Name"="Button 3" to "Name"="Button 4" then go to Start/Setings/Personal/Buttons and
button 4 will be listed and you can assign any application you want
Rom issues
Hi Developer,
Again the same problem in the rom which i hate the most, it dosent has contact integration
in messages or mails and creates lot of problem when you try to send mail or message to many people.
Every time we need to go to contact select the name and comeback to the message.
Rom looked nice to me as i just kept it for only 30 mins, qwerty keyboard cab didnt work well as after selecting the diamond keyboard it used to return to the default keyboard.
Please try to intergrate the contacts in the sms/mail in your next Rom.
Good luck.
Morning,
the ROM is great but I can't seem to import contacts from the SIM Manager. Can you help!
Regards
j

Hi j,
Are you not able to locate the contacts from your SIM? Is that what you mean?
If YES, here's what you can do:
1) Goto Contact, Menu -> Filter -> SIM contacts. With this you would be able to see all your SIM contact.
If you want to copy the same to your phone, then follows
2) Menu -> Select Contact -> All
3) Menu -> Copy contacts -> To Contacts
If NO, please help me understand the scenarion you are facing so that I can help.

Hello My Friend,
Recomendation well taken. Will cook it in the next release that I am preparing with the lasted build for WM 6.5.5[23563].
On the Youtube, does it become unresponsive OR does not start at all. If you can elaborate the issue, I maybe able to fix it sooner.
downloaded and flashed
first opinion. looks good! finally a decent fast version of M2D for Artemis. well done !
tweaking it a bit atm
youtube seems to work
google maps works
i dont see any errors atm
if i find something, i'll post it later
well done!

I believe this is M2D isssue. The same problem even comes is you are selecting a program for the launcher. Sometimes the selection disapperas. Let me see the newer versions have a fix for this.
