My Universal's Customized Extended ROM

Many people are asking me what I throw into my Extended ROM since I play around with tweaks and CAB files. Well, I decided to finalize most of it and make it available for public consumption.
Mind you, I have a Qtek 9000 (Universal) which I flashed to the JASJAR CE ROM which appears to be more stable, O2 XDA Exec Radio ROM, and the mix of CAB files from various devices plus my own concoction.

This will return the GlyphCache to 2000H (8192 bytes), the standard.

thanks file worked!

Hi BeyondtheTech,
1) Any procedure to perform the upgrade?
2) Are there config and autoexec files to edit?
3) How to unlock/lock and unhide/hide EXTROM?
Thanks

Java Plugin required!
Hi!
Is there any java plugin avaialble for the Universal since existing PIE cannot view sites with java (I might be wrong)?
Thanks

It in the Java folder on the FTP.
Jeode.

RE
Hi BeyondtheTech
Your link leads to nowhere

All the Extended ROM files have been moved to this folder.

The links are gone because your site is under construction.
Please give us new links. Thanks a lot.

I have put back the files here:

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Sorry, forgot the .htaccess file for the webhosting.
It's good now!

Thank you so much. Downloading now... :lol:
Just a small question: how can I modify the file Default_Unsigned_Regional_USA.sa to change the regional to Australia? Of course, if regional is Australia, the date format is dd MMM yy
Hope you can help me soon. Thanks in advance.

I had to search for the particular keys that get changed, then set them in the CAB file.
Since I don't remember offhand what keys get changed, you can try opening the CAB file with OCP WinCE CAB Manager (www.ocpsoftware.com) then look in the Registry section for the keys and values.
Next, go ahead and use the Regional Settings to change to Australia and whatever else you need.
Then, use Resco Explorer or another Registry Editor to see what the new values are and pop them back into the CAB file. Done!

I do not seem to be able to find the following cab. Is it missing or have I gone mad?!?

Request HTC Network Wizard 1.0.30737.1

I upgraded to Schap's 4.00 RC ROM and found this 30737 version of HTC Network Wizard finally works with my hermes. However, due to some unstable situation of my phone, I had to downgrade to 3.60a. The Network Wizard of 1.0.29982 in 3.60a cannot recognise my operator.
I tried to dump the network wizard out of 4.00 RC, but this version seems totally changed, like provision.zip and .exe file size. I just don't know what are essentials should be ported to 3.60a.
Can any one guide me doing this or offer a CAB file?
I really appreciate your help.
Many thanks.

Registry
Doesn't seem any one have time, alternatively, could you please help me to check with the registry to see how Network Wizard is configured.
Please post all the keys with values under:
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\NetworkWizard\
thanks again.

Also i need this cab... i am using v.1.0.29981.1 and works well, but there isnt the NAME of the link under the ICON in setting->connections tab.
I've seen my registry:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\NetworkWizard]
"IMSI"="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
"profile"="2228800"
"IOCTL_IPC_WINCE_RESET"=dword:00000000

I'm Looking for good editor ...

I'm looking for a good editor (free preferred) that would run on the PPC. Word is fine for many things but I don't want to be restricted to the .doc, .txt etc file types (specifically I want easy access to skin.xml files for editing on the PPC).
Can you suggest a good editor? I'm having NO luck today searching for one. I was directed to PPC_Edit and it works fine EXCEPT that it will not browse outside the predefined file structure to where I saved the Skin.xml file
Or how do you change Word to see all file types?
Thanks,
NK

Do you mean a text editor. If so, you might look into Pocket Notepad, found at http://tillanosoft.com/ce/pnotepad.html. To see more files than the normal file dialogue box gives you (although it won't work with Word, Excel, or Powerpoint), look for the file dialogue changer. You need to have "gsgetfile.dll" in the Windows directory for it to work.

PocketNotepad did not work for me :-( And it does allow browsing all file structures.
The "DEL" anf Backspace do not work correctly on my PPC (WM 6 Maglite version on Axim X50V).
NK
UPDATE: I rebooted the PPC and it works now. Wow ... self correcting software ...Cool

You could always connect it to a PC and use a PC editor to edit.
Alan

CKE (http://www.animaniak.com/cke/cke_main.asp) is the best text editor I have found for the PPC. It has syntax highlighting and many other useful features. Give it a go.
Cheers

BBConnect & Windows Mobile 6.1

I have spent 2 hours reading and searching through the net after a disappointing experience with CRC 6.1 and Blackberry Connect ... I have tried many versions, I do see success out there with Windows Mobile 6.1 but not with Hermes.

you could try this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365604
there is a link in Matts signature which takes you over to another thread which contains a zip file containing OEM/SYS directories, in the OEM folder there is a version of BBConnect, not sure which one it is but would assume it will be for WM6 or later.
If you don't fancy having a go yourself I've just followed the destructions and cooked it into a base rom, you're welcome to have a try, can't guarantee it will work though as I haven't loaded it onto my device, the ROM is the same one I am using with BBConnect added in.

Try this:
1. Hard reset.
2. Change device ID, from Start -> Settings -> System -> About -> Device ID to HTC_TyTN
3. Install a registry editor, such as Resco (www.resco-net.com) or Total Commander (www.ghisler.com, I use 2.5 beta 3). Then edit:
"HKLM\System\Versions\AKU key", change whatever in there to .0.4.2
Note the . goes in front, it's not typo

does it work with BIS or only with BES because the BBC is only talking about BES
Thankx

Kavana WM6.1, Esmertec JBed, and Opera Mini: A Complete Solution

Hello everybody,
I've figured a few things out regarding JBed and Opera Mini on Kavana's latest WM6.1 ROM, and I thought I'd share them with you.
Introduction
First off, a quick introduction: Opera Mini 4, a Java MIDlet web browser, is arguably the best browser available for Windows Mobile. It routes traffic through Opera servers, so it doesn't take as much data (or time) to browse the Web, and it has small-screen rendering like iPhone's. Slashdot, for example, loads in seconds under OM, as opposed to half an hour in Pocket IE. Esmertec JBed respects the system's network settings, so it works with the T-Zones $5.99 internet trick.
JBed isn't perfect, though. It has a few glaring issues: network access permissions, inability to use a MIDlet as a systemwide default browser, and ugly fonts. I haven't figured out the last one yet, but the first two are solvable, and here's how.
Network Access Permissions
Most tutorials for fixing this problem refer to the file \Windows\AppDB\Selector.utf; editing this file and replacing the text
Code:
domain=untrusted, \
with
Code:
domain=tckmax , \
fixes the problem under Cloudyfa's JBed. The version of JBed in Kavana's WM6.1 stores its data in \Application Data\JavaDB, and the selector.utf trick doesn't work. The culprit is a missing file named policy.utf, which defines tckmax. I've attached a copy of this file; just move it to your \Application Data\JavaDB directory and the selector.utf trick will work as usual.
Systemwide Default Browser
First off, you can make it easier to access Opera Mini by changing the short_IE.lnk file to open OM instead of PIE. I've attached a version of that file for your convenience; copy it to your \Windows directory and the IE (or T-Zones) button will open a usable browser for a change. This only works if OM is the first MIDlet you've installed; if you have installed other MIDlets you'll have to edit the shortcut (Notepad works nicely) to reflect the change. If OM is your second MIDlet, change s0_ to s1_; third, s2_; and so on.
Also, various MortScript scripts have been floating around that attempt to automate the process of copying a clicked link to the system clipboard, opening OM, and pasting the link into the address bar. I haven't found one that works, but a much better solution is available. The linked post contains a CAB file (which I've reposted here for convenience) that installs an actual application that works well under WM6.1. This one is hardcoded with the assumption that Opera Mini is the first MIDlet that you've installed.
One Other Thing
I recommend backing up your \Application Data\JavaDB directory once you get everything working; you can simply copy it back from your backup after a cold boot to get everything working again. I don't know how to make a CAB file myself, but if someone is up to the challenge, I'd suggest making a single file that installs Opera Mini and the Opera Mini Default Browser application, and optionally replaces the PIE button with OM. Or maybe Kavana can add this to his next ROM
Hope you find this useful!
EDIT: The application I've attached only works if Opera Mini is the first application ever installed under JBed. If you uninstall it and reinstall it, it will get a new suite number. You can look at your selector.utf file and figure out your suite number (e.g., s1_), but I would recommend clearing out your \Application Data\JavaDB folder to reset your suite numbers. Also, it may be a bad idea to edit your selector.utf file in Notepad; a hex editor should avoid corruption issues.

awesome! thanks!

very useful, thanks!

Great Job!!

How do you tell what the s number is for the OM midlet?
When I press the short key cut key I get a "Could not find suite s0_" error message. When I dismiss the message I get the jbed midlet manager window which list Opera Mini and it's the only applet listed. I click on that and Opera Mini opens up.

Perfect, the policy.utf file did the trick. I'm not so sure that I want to replace the iexplore shortcut to OM because there are still some limits to the OM applet over PIE. OM can't launch youtube for example.
Thank you ... thank you - Tim

Kinda bummed.... I cant seem to get this to work. Everytime I edit selector.utf with the new code, my opera midlet dissappears. I have policy.utf in the directory so I am at a loss. ???

Works great on my system - many thanks for this!

Yes, it will depend on how many java programs you installed before so that you can get an accurate count.

Opera is the only java app that I have installed and I still get the error, however, I have installed and uninstalled a few times... so I think there may be .db remnants that force it further down the "install list" e.g. s2_
edit: just had to clean up \\application data\javaDB, works fine

Hi all,
Glad I was able to help. I added a bit of information to my original post; I recommend starting with a blank slate, so to speak, because OperaDefault.cab is programmed with that assumption. When in doubt about your suite number, and if you don't care about OperaDefault, then you can look in (or post) your selector.utf file and get it from there.

Esmertec jbed
Can someone point me to forum where i can get esmertec jbed?
I'm looking for a couple of hours already.
Please help....

Having a very strange problem with Opera Mini 4. I'm using Ricky's Rom V5 with my Dash and Opera will not display fonts correctly. They all seem to have horizontal lines going through them and appear to be slightly stretched (that could be my imagination though). I checked the Jbed version and it appears to be the latest one (I never changed it) and I'm not sure where to go from here. Opera boots and runs fast but it's not legible at all. Any suggestions as to what I can try? I searched XDA but couldn't come up with anything. Thanks,

NOT TRUE.
I tried to use from s0_ to s4_, nothing worked....
Untill i opened my selector.utf(windows\appdb) and seen that gMail is "root=s-1_", so i've change my shortcut to point to "s-1_", this did the trick.
Thanx.
