Hi
I've spent the past few days geeking with my MDA, using the wealth of info from this forum.
I tried the JasJar rom (too much [email protected]), and ended up with:
- XDA CE Rom (1.13.48 )
- Radio From O2 Rom (1.04.02)
- Minimal Stuff from XDA/MDA ext roms
Goal was to install with the least [email protected] possible.
Step 1 - Flashing The XDA Exec Roms
First flash with O2 XDA Rom, using the info available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32725
To sumarise the above...
- Get XDA rom from:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Shipped ROM/Xda_Exec_LaunchROM_v113139.exe
- Unpack the above using winrar.
- Plonk MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe in the folder where you unpacked the O2 rom (you can get this file from the ftp site, in the file: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar
You only need the one file!
- Disable activesync
- Put MDA in bootloader mode
- Connect to PC via USB, wait for hardware detection
- Run the file MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from the O2 Rom directory on the PC
- Wait ;-)
- Once it restarts, do the usual CE setup, but do not let the extended rom install (simply soft reset at the prompt). If you have gotten past this stage, just hard reset again, and do the soft reset at the correct point!
Step 2 - Installing Progs From Extended Rom
- You'll now have an MDA with the XDA CE and Radio roms installed. It will need the appropriate patches installing from the XDA and MDA extended roms.
- To start, DL both extended roms:
XDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/O2_XDA_Exec_Extended_ROM.zip
MDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/mda_pro_eng_uk_extrom.zip
- For info on what each of these roms contain, look at the following threads:
MDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32839
XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32527
- You dont need all that ****e, I installed the following:
XDA:
Signed_SSD_BTUR_Patch_For_BT_Cannot_Initial.sa.CAB (bluetooth patch)
MDA:
CAB-Customization-TMUK-Universal-01-03-04Aug05.CAB (Adds MMS Server Settings)
CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB (Adds MMS to outlook + installs some shortcuts which you can remove later)
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB (Enables Video Calling)
Signed_UNI_TMO_Connection_112100.CAB (Adds 'T-Mobile Internet' and 'T-Mobile Internet CS' for GPRS/3G connection)
Stage 3 - Cleanup
- The CAB CAB-Shorcut-TMOENU-08Aug05.CAB also installs a links. If you dont install the cab TMO_UK_UI_0727_signed.CAB then these will be dead llinks. The 'clearvue pdf' reader is a part of this cab (but if you install it, you'll get all the other sh1te it contains also. I was not interested in the PDF reader, so I just trashed the dead links.
- There are two dead links in Programs (they'll be obvous by their icons. I seem to remember them being 'clearvue PDF' and 'EmailWiz' In Explorer, browse to /windows/start menu/programs and trash them.
- Several shortcuts are installed in /windows/startup. Trash the elatepushservice (I dont know what this does, but I dont appear to be missing anything!), sddeamon (this causes the prompt 'view pics on card' when you insert a card containing jpgs from digicam etc). DONT trash 'poutlook' as otherwise the MMS folders wont appear in pocket outlook.
- Install Pocket Mechanic, and use it to ditch bad registy keys and cleanup the notification que.
- Could also install the ext rom unlocker & Total Commander so that you can shove only the cabs you want into the ext rom (or use the space for somet more useful) See Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33638 (Cheers Buzz!)
Registry Hacks
Goto: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry and pick some registry hacks to install. I did 'keys on today screen', 'disable start menu animation', 'change pocket ie', 'change fonts', 'change glyph cache' and 'change web hardware button' - to 'about:blank'
Goto:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33515 and make the suggested changes to the cache settings. I found that this did speed stuff up, but since its only cache settings, it will only speed up stuff the second time you try and do it!
Soft Reset
Install Your Progs
I installed
In Internal Mem
Resco Explorer (+regedit +ftp) to replace the MS sh1te
Resco Pic Viewer (to replace the MS App)
Pocket Informant (case the built in stuff is useless)
Resco Audio Recorder
Resco Pocket Radio
TCMP Media player
Net Remote (to control my HTPC)
SPB GPRS Monitor (from MDA CDROM)
Zimmermann Pocket Hosts (essential for VPN use)
Small menu (so I can ruddy well close open apps!)
IPConfig
Pocket Putty (SSH)
On CF Card
Total Commander (to get to the ext rom)
WiFiFoFum (for free email on the move ;-)
Pocket Mechanic
Concluding
Machine is now both fast, stable and not full of bloat-ware. Have 22MB free storage, and 27MB free program memory.
Main Issue left is the time that machine takes to respond to an incomming call when its switched off. On the original MDA rom, I had 4 rings before machine actually rang. Now I have about 2.5.
Time for sleep! I'll read through this tomorrow and correct any errors...
Nigel
One essential point.
According to the publisher, Pocket Mechanic should not be installed to the SD-card, especially if you intend using any of Pocket Mechanic's functions against the SD-card - could lead to corruption.
Personally, I've installed (and run) many of the applications you've listed as "Internal mem" direct to the SD-card without experiencing any problems.
Great bit of collating, does anyone know if the same can be performed on a M5000? Orange have a habit of needing things on there phone to work correctly. Also does anyone know what the following do on the M5000 ExtRom:
CAB-Customization-OrangeUK-Universal-01-05-15Aug05.CAB
CAB-Shortcut-Orange-19Aug05.CAB
cusTSK.exe
Enable_VT_RTPlugin_0727_2_signed.CAB
Signed_DiscoButton8.sa.CAB
Signed_Orange_SuspendResume.sa.CAB
Signed_Orange_UAString.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_Conn.sa.CAB
Signed_ORUK_Customize.sa.CAB

Would be a great help if someone did or could find out as I could then cherry pick what to install. I can take a guess at a few of them but I would like to be sure
Thanks
Hi
Aye, I have noticed oddities with pocket mechanic on SD card, but only when doing SD card benchmark, defrag etc.
I installed to internal mem cause its faster than SD card rather than any other reason, but I found issues with some resco apps running on the SD card also - specifically resco upgrade failed (could not install downloaded upgrade)

I can understand Pocket Mechanic objecting when you defrag/benchmark the medium it itself is running from.
Haven't had any problems with Resco, but haven't tried the update facility.

Hi,
I am gathering the files to perform the upgrade as detailed in this thread, however I can't seem to find JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar.
Is there a better one to use now ? or should I keep searching for JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10402.rar ?
In fact most of the links have moved ...

Can you dump your extended rom and post on the ftp site?
I've tried installing the french version, but the UI won't install. Most odd...
I can't find the ROMS
I keep getting :
File not found
You tried to access the address ftp://[email protected]/Universal/Extended ROMs/, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.
Can any one point me in the right direction ?
I have a T Mobile (UK) MDA PRO, the wifi connection lasts for about 3 seconds, then it keeps trying, but failing.
These are the ROMs I'm after :
XDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/O2_XDA_Exec_Extended_ROM.zip
MDA:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Extended ROMs/mda_pro_eng_uk_extrom.zip
Thanks
Hi
Looks like someone has trashed the FTP site (again) all those roms have dissapeared. Hopefully they'll get restored... Did a backup exist??!
I'll search my laptop see if I have any of the missing roms
Nigel
Yup the FTP's missing practically every file...
I need the NO ID upgrade launcher file to flash my MDA Pro to XDA Exec please.
If anyone can upload it or send it me accross msn it'd be much appreciated
take a look at the last post :

Title says it all...Landware made its .cab wm5 compatible only, I hacked it to install to any wm build. Hope some of you will find use for it, as you may know this is NOT pirated, you still need the same activation code as with WM5.
There's no WM6 APPS forum, so I figured this was the best place to post it.
I appreciate this, thanks. I'm a registered user of both the Palm and WM versions. My support inquiries fell on deaf ears.
The current version of Pocket Quicken (v2.5 Build 338a) installs and works well with WM6 without any tweaks. I have it on Cingular 8525 running CUSTEL WM VI Pro v2.5.

What is SIP Configuration?????
Thank you
Try to deactivate HTC's phone skih. The WM6 default skin now have great new options.
Here is the registry change:
Remove operator skin from Phone app
If your device's Phone app is skinned, you can remove by setting:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Similarly, you can restore it with:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 1 (DWORD decimal)
I how Unninstall:

I dont know how, or if you can uninstall those programs..look in your system folder under program files, but I dont recall ever seeing those programs in there. I think they are in the extended ROM and would have to be removed before you flash...but I dont know how to do it, or if that information is correct.
I do know, however, that SIP has to do with Voice Over IP - Internet, or WiFi calling. Thats all I know on that subject, not a feature I ever got excited about.

First; the calculator can NEVER be removed (it's part of the WM Operating system).
For the Voice speed dial i'm not sure, but you can remove apps that were installed from the EXTended ROM by doing a hard reset, and then immediately do a soft-reset as soon as the 'customisation-process' starts (that's what loads apps from the extended rom to your device, and so you skip that).
HOWEVER: as there may be some customisations in there that are needed for good operation on your network, you do this at your own risk...
But let's talk shop... (on-topic)
I've got a Trinity with an official Dopod WM6 ROM on it, and now i am looking for upgrading my friends Artemis...
So i wondered if there are any issues with this ROM, and how exactly all of you flashed this on a different CID device (my Friend 's got a Dutch (NL) Artemis)... So far i have found out that apparently the Artemis has to be CID unlocked completely before flashing different CID ROM...or are there hacked bootloaders out there that work too...?
Sorry for asking a question that may have been answered before, but an Artemis is just not my native device as you understand...
Search for USPL, its a hacked bootloaded that makes it possible to load any rom onto your device.
no issues so far, rock solid stability. faster performance than the black and blue rom as it doesnt include all the added junk
I don't understand why you should "upgrade" to radio 1.47, when 02.69.90 is in this ROM..?
Yes! WM6 is on my Orbit - going to remove the horrible green HTC dialpad.
However the SIP/VoIP stuff is missing from the WWE rom
Could somebody please check if this ROM includes Czech regional settings?
Czech is in the list in Regional Settings

About the only way to remove those particular apps would be to cook your own ROM, resetting before customization might get rid of Voice command and Clearvuew PDF, but I am not sure. I have contemplated cooking my own version of the official 3.5 ROM to get rid of Voice Command and ClearVue but it has not been worth the effort yet. Maybe once the official HTC ROM comes out. I install too many programs to make me want to flash regularly.
Thank you Janetpanic
Dear Tom:
I like your 3.7 version, but, this is very slow (3.5 is mor fast)
I like a New ROM within apps (Not clean, please), but with:
ArcsoftMMS
AudioManager
Office 2007
BT_FTP
HTC Camera 4.11 (From HTC Touch)
HTC Home
QuickGPS
ShareDLL
TaskManager
Sim manager
VoiceRecorder
NetworkWizard
Esmertec Jbed
StreamingMedia
More Themes (I got various themes ;-)
Calendar today o secretary calendar (see WM6 for wizard)
Speed dial today (see WM6 for wizard)
Messeges today
Touch Flo (but optional)
Thank you
Is this Rom Working on HTC P3300? Is Italian Language support?

How To Unlock Your Phone
And Flash A Custom Rom
And Relock Your Vogue
(Following was written by: Detroit_Doug)
First go here and
READ the hell outta it until you have it step by step.
(BTW use the 2.31 unlocker regardless about the GPS thing)
OK, now that you've read that (happy dance time)
Download the 2.31 Unlocker and NFSFANs WinMO 6.5 ROM.
And make sure to download one of the DCD Carrier cabs here
and copy it to your SD card as you may need this after the flashing is done.
(will get back to this tasty morsel later)
OK, now you have an Unlocker and a ROM - now what, hmmmm
Use WinRAR and extract both the files into separate folders,
Press and hold the Power button+Camera Button and Stylus in the reset hole
until the 3 color screen comes up and it says serial,
now plug in your cable and it should change to USB.
Can you taste the rainbow and it is over the land of USB??
Great, now go into the Unlocker folder you created
and doubleclick on the RomUpdateUtility.exe
(going to be called RUU.exe from this point on).
Follow the steps on the desktop monitor.
(You might get some errors about sleep4.exe - dont worry about it)
Just keep hitting enter and it will go away after the 4th or so time.
At some point the program is going to tell you to disconnect the phone,
sounds scary doesn't it, losing the connection and all - dont be,
be a brave little soldier and disconnect it and count to 10,
cant do that, get some help in getting there,
its really that important LOL once you (or your friend)
gets to 10 plug it back in, does it say USB again? good!!
happy dance AFTER you hit a key on the keyboard per the on screen directions.
It's going to eventually reboot, let it and it will be unlocked,
let it start up and do its thing, when its done - go ahead and go back into bootloader mode again
(remember power+camera+stylus twister move you did earlier, its back to that again)
with the cable disconnected and it had better say SERIAL again..
now go ahead and plug in the cable and it should change to USB.
Now go into the ROM folder and double click the RUU.exe here ...
and follow the directions that come up on the screen...
Once its done and the phone reboots, wait...
wait some more..
still keep waiting..
no not yet ...
stop touching it..
it wont help pacing..
just be patient...
oh look an Orange screen,
ok here comes some fun.
Follow the drections to go through the setup,
don't worry about it being too accurate and all as it is about to be erased anyway...
let the autorun happen once windows starts and it will reboot on its own again.
- Yes it really IS a smartphone isn't it. LOL -
OK, as it is booting up again when there is a black screen
- press and hold the red button+green button+stylus in reset hole (known as a Hard reset)
until the screen turns gray - follow the directions again
(save you some time "press the Enter key" thats the big silver button in the center of the buttons LOL)
and when the progress bar moves all the way to the right, press the call key (the green one).
Again, it will restart (told you it was smart) and now go ahead and do the setup
and customizations and do them right this time as your hanging onto them this time
(sounds weird but if you dont hard reset after flashing it,
flying monkeys will swoop in and take your phone and your little dog toto too)
OK, now remember that DCD Carrier Cab, you do, fantastic ..
so to the storage card where you copied it to - you didn't forget that step did you???
good I knew my faith in you would pay off, tap on it and run it.
It will install all the Carrier goodies to make your life easy,
and your sex life better and even improve that certain area of a ..
wait sorry wrong channel again....
just go ahead and tap it, run it and reboot.
**Note from Codybear**
I personally go through the RUU.EXE flash process 2-3 times each time I flash a new rom.
I flash it, and then let customizations run,
and then flash again, let customization run again,
then you guessed it, flash again and customizations run once again.
It's a tad bit lengthy, but due to this process,
I usually don't have any problems that most people do with any roms.
Not sure why it makes a difference, but it does.
**Important**
As pointed out to me by Aaronpoweruser,
I forgot to mention that before flashing this rom,
upgrade your radio to a 3.xx.xx version!!
(It doesn't need to be the latest and greatest version available)
Note on Radio Upgrading By Doug:
"An upgrade is not needed - it can help depending on your carrier,
but its based on a carrier by carrier exceptions.
I'm on Sprint with the 3.42.30 radio with no issues whatsoever
where upgrading to 3.42.50 on some carriers can create problems."
To Get Back To Your Original (Stock) Rom:
It is quite simple.
All you do is go to the htc.com website,
click support,
Click dropdown menu to find your device,
in my case it's: HTC Touch™ (Alltel)
Then click download for the rom upgrade.
and then run the ruu.exe just like you did with the custom rom.
To Flash From MicroSd Card:
(Written By DetroitDoug)
Yes it has to be 2GB or less and formatted FAT32
I always find my original 512MB works perfect for flashing from
as to how to get it to your card...
Extract the ROM you want to use
Find the largest *.NBH file and copy it to your desktop
at the desktop rename it to VOGUIMG.NBH (I believe the caps in naming is important)
Copy that file to the root of your formatted FAT32 2GB or less SD Card
enter bootloader mode and it should go from there.

Titanium Weather step by step fix for NFSFANs V10 ROM (Stock Weather Panel)
(This has been reported to work with other versions of Nfsfan's roms,
and some other versions of Weather panel.
No harm to try, you can always reinstall the original panel again.)
- Download the file as offered HERE
- Extract the zip file to desktop
- Copy the TitaniumWeather.mscr file to your phone (storage card or where ever)
- Click on Start Go into settings>today and under the 2nd tab (ITEMS) disable "Windows Default" (6.5 Interface AKA CHome)
- Use Total Commander to copy from location you saved the file to to the root of \Windows - overwrite if needed or if you are having issues coping it over rename the original file(TitaniumWeather.mscr) to titaniumweather.bak and then copy it over
- Go to settings>today and enable Windows Default (6.5 Interface)
- Go to Weather Tab and in lower right click on Setup
- Select 2nd option (Run full update and exit)
- Wait for full update to occur and scroll through pages all icons should have appeared again (although I had to run the full update twice)
May need to start IE or Opera or whatever browser you use to gain an internet connection first to perform update if you already dont have the option to "connect to the internet automatically" set in your options before attempting the update
(Thanks to 4Thought for this) If your in Canada or other locations just enter in your location code directly in this format: NAM|**|**|****** replacing the * with your location in the SETUP options (Setup>Option 3 (Forcast options/setup) > Option 1 (Zip or Location Code)
an example would be NAM|CA|ON|OSHAWA for Oshawa Canada or NAM|CA|AB|EDMONTON for Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Or if that doesn't work,
Try this File
Download this file,
Turn Off Titanium (Start>Settings>Today, click Items tab, Uncheck Windows Default, press ok)

As Reported by mnherky:
"I'm having a problem when i set up active sync to my work exchange server. they require that i have 4 digit pin to unlock the phone. when the phone starts it looks like it is trying to go to the keypad to unlock but only the top bar shows up, the rest of the screen is blank. the only extra thing i install was the touch pal keyboard.
thanks for the help and ROM"
Common fix: "Try not setting up the PIN. Many people have reported problems using a PIN with the new lock screen."
His fix: "It's required by my company in order to set up active sync.
If anyone else is having this issue switching to classic [display] seems to have fixed all the issues.
kind of looks ugly but it works."
Turn GPS On:
(6.1 and 6.5 Compatible)
Go to Start>Settings>Personal>Phone

click get settings, Check on, press ok.
For google maps,
you'll need to have it open of course,
then go to menu, click use gps.

NFSFAN Dialers
(Written By Jmitr)
NFSFAN has 2 different ROM’s available for our Vogues.
1. Windows Mobile 6.1
2. Windows Mobile 6.5
Both of these ROMS use different dialers, these are listed below:
1. WM 6.1 ROMS GSM Dialer
This dialer is one of the newer ones available.
It features slide to anwser/ignore and other features.
To go into this dialer first I have to list the issues
with GSM dialers on CDMA phones.
• 911 and number codes usually do not work
• Data sessions. In most gsm dialers the data is always active. This causes quite a battery drain
NFSFAN has managed to fix these problems to an extent.
911 works, phone codes cannot be directly dialed but are
found in a folder under systems.
The data is NOT always active,
however the data arrows are “broken” or greyed out.
2. WM 6.5 CDMA Dialer
This is basically the same as the stock dialer that came with your phone.
It may not be “as pretty” as the gsm dialer,
but everything works just like stock.
This is the reason that you will no longer find the
phone codes folder in the 6.5 ROM as there is no need for it.
It is possible to skin a dialer and add colour etc.
This changes the appearance of the dialer
without actually installing a different dialer.
Some people have installed newer dialers in the 6.5 ROM as well.
Just remember the issues with gsm when you do.
You may find your battery depletes quickly (data issue)
or 911 doesn’t work (BAD if you figure that out when you need it!!)
Phone codes Walkthrough
(Written By Jmitr)
• ##778 = ..\Windows\EPST.exe ##778
View/edit phone provisioning (you'll need your phone specific MSL to edit)
Always keep a record of your phone's ESN, MSID, Security, EPST, and M. IP settings in case a flash reprograms your phone.
Run the EPST utility by:
1. Typing ##778 into the dialer Or from the ..\Windows directory you can also directly execute EPST.exe or EPST.lnk
2. If EPST.exe quickly loads and exits, then try a few more times before resetting your phone and trying again.
3. Select VIEW and then record your info. On most versions, the A-Key is blank and will not be displayed. If your phone fails to authenicate with your provider, you will need to call your providers technical support line to get a new A-key. The A-key is not reuseable.
To edit your EPST if you have lost security and data connections:
NOTE: The Verizon MSL is 000000 (six zeros) - you don't need to run getspl.exe for a Verizon phone, skip to step 6.
1. First follow these steps to obtain your phone's MSL unlocking code
2. Obtain getspl.exe
3. execute that on your Titan
4. Type in your ESN(Hex) into the input field
5. Hit go and record your phone's MSL Number (EPST unlock code)
6. Re-run the EPST app and now select Edit and unlock with your MSLNumber
7. Edit the necessary keys
8. Select Done when finished
There is a thread in the Vogue Forum called "##778 hacks shared" please visit it here for more information:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=360288
• #33284 (debug) = ..\Windows\FieldTrial.exe
Field Trial shows your signal strength in dbm and channel info
What the numbers mean:
Signal strength is a number ranging from roughly -50 to -105 (your phone may show as a positive number). Closer to zero means a better signal, i.e. -
50 (roughly full signal) to -105 (roughly no signal.)
• #3424(diag)
= ..\Windows\DMRouter.exe /DIAG
Diagnostic Mode, required to repair, or configure the Operator service related programs
• #38278 (fuart)= ..\Windows\Fuart.exe Fuart
Enable or Disable Fast UART mode. Resets device after choosing.
A UART is a serial to parallel data converter. I would assume the Vogue uses this mode for serial connections to a PC (USB ect). Because HTC uses this connector for headphones etc it may also affect these.
For Sprint, there's an extra # at the end instead of pressing Send. (ex. ##778#)
If anyone has any additional information please pm JMITR and I will add it to the FAQ.[/QUOTE]
** Opal (HTC) volume control will not work with the CDMA dialer **
** because you can't adjust incall volume. **
** GSM dialer has problems on 6.5, **
** and it doesn't work properly. **
** For this reason the volume control in the 6.5 ROM is the default microsoft one. **
OverClocking The Vogue:

~I have all DCD Carrier Cabs, but still finding all MMS Cabs, I need the following mms cabs, if you have them or can send me a link to them I'd appreciate it: lusacell, cricket, tnz, uscc, telus, sprint, qwest, bell, appalachain.
*Cabs to remove unused keyboards from sip list.
*Working on mortscript coding to get the opera panel to look into the two different known spots for the bookmark file.
*Change Raphael Bookmarks text in the opera panel, submit me some ideas to change it to, i'll be making cabs!
*Trying to figure out how to launch opera mini using mortscript, it's possible,
just might take a little while if someone doesn't already have the fix someone.
*Trying to fix async killer cab,or find a better one.
~Also I'm going to be working on getting this launcher panel I have seen,
It allows up to 18 programs and I want to make sure it is fully compatible with the other panels!
~Softkey registry locations so you can change them on all panels, and maybe eventually make a user friendly program.
*Will note 6.1 compatible cabs/information in this faq in attempt to hold off 6.1 users till they finally upgrade to 6.5.
*Attempt to make this list smaller, it's growing faster than I can do everything.
*Look into custom fonts, write walkthrough.
*Gps For Carriers Section
*=Going to try and get these done this weekend.
And there's more that are not listed here.
~Mortscript to start a data connection and run Lastfm program, then when you close last fm, it shuts off the data connection.
~Waiting on registry info to get twitter panel working
~Problem told to me in PM(Just my personal note to remind myself)
NOW WORKING ON/HOPE TO HAVE DONE IN THE NEXT DAY OR TWO:
Working on making the mortscript file to make it look into two diff locations with the already given code,
async fix,
then opera mini thing with opera panel,
then the keyboard cleanup thing.
This Summer:
Going to build these programs:
1. Pill Identifier that uses drugs.com's pill identifier information,
and will relay all their information to the phone in a mobile friendly format.
2. They have facebook sync programs to sync pictures,
I'm going to try and see if it's possible to sync friend's pictures from myspace.
I really have to update this. hahahaha

I know it!
There are already some out that are showing alot of potential.
I'm personally going to work on some titanium ones here in the near future.
But have a few other things I want to do before I play with titanium.
Edit:
i have a bunch of themes but have to edit the titanium cpr info within the cabs,
they overwrite the existing cpr's and it erases certain panels.
Edit:
@ryudo423 down below,
thank you.
There were others that helped out with bits and pieces.
I just wanted to give back to this community,
and didn't know where to start,
and I love nfsfan's roms,
so I said why not since he has 10982750913745714 million pages of posts in his rom thread.
Wow codybear this is just awsome thanx a ton.i'm sure it's going to help many people.u rock!
Will the fix cab work for the updated version of Titanium Weather ("Showaco's Titanium Weather v3.1 Ported to QVGA as v3.1.2 by mnemonique")?
I would like to test this interesting ROM for the X51v created by "Dynamite".

Here is the official thread for these ROMs;

Here is Dynamites previous version ROM release thread;

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

I sent a PM to Dynamite on 4pda to show my respect and thank him for supplying us with these great ROMs.
Someone else might like to make some more mirrors?
Please, comment on your experiences.
update the graphic driver??
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
Since Roma Series A05 integrated bugfixed driver graphics accelerator, allowing the gradient menu are displayed correctly.
Here is change log for A02 v7.0 RTM:
Quote:
1. Fixed an issue with drawing of menus (no gradient) of Dking
2. Fixed an issue with the contrast
3. off clock display in the taskbar
4. Modified wood backlight Dking
5. Bluetooth Explorer (BTFTP)
6. Print via Bluetooth (BTPP)
7. Outlook Enhancement
8. ModemIS
Here is change log for A02 v8.0 RTM:
Quote:
1. .NET CF 3.5
2. Bluetooth Security
Here is change log for A02 v8.0 TOUCH:
Quote:
1. Aximsite WirelessPower (instead of the standard WirelessPower)
2. Bluetooth Explorer (BTFTP)
3. EnlargeStartMenu
4. FTouchFlo
5. ModemIS
6. Outlook Enhancement
7. WkTask (instead of the standard launcher Home)
8. Print via Bluetooth (BTPP)

So does that mean we could easily add your graphic driver to his A02 V8.0 English ROMs? (The A05 is Russian).
Cheers,
Dan.
Information about A02 V8.0 Touch ROM
Translated from official site
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)

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***

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.)
