My First thanks to Football. As there was a mysterious A05 from Football embedded in his Magic x51v when he sold it, I've decided to continue his work with this A06 WM6.1 rom
I am starting this new thread as the new rom offers a lot of new features (compare to the previous béta)
Original thread here.
Current status is:
Rom A06 PROß00Cp (private "pure" edition):
WM6.1 Professional - CE OS 5.2.19949 (Build 19949.1.2.0) with "4.8 MB Pagepool"
And includes the following
-- SDHC support
-- WPA-TSK vagus fix.
-- NetCF 3.5
-- SQLCE 3.5
-- Softkey Applet (a powerfull applet that allows you to change your softkey without having to soft reset)
-- TCPMP 0.72 with subtitle support and YouTube support (Subtitle support for SMI in video "Intel 2700G" mode and not in "Intel 2700G Decoder" mode)
It also includes aac & ac3 plugin. TCPMP is an alternative to WM Player. File associations is availble in TCPMP settings
nota: You can also use the new Subtitle plugin , just put subs.plg under \windows and go to tcpmp settings, subtitles to activate the plugin, It's great because it can run under "Intel 2700G Decoder" mode with higher performance than the older one. Thanks will5
-- PIE 6.1 and YouTube plugin, scrolling can be done using directional button, PIE Ramdisk is available in Scripts & Tricks section (it uses ram for PIE cache to improve performance). About the YouTube Plugin, it works natively. If you surf on YouTube with PIE, when you click on a video a context menu will be displayed (see screenshot above). Then you will be able to save the video or to view it online through TCPMP.
-- DF's PIM Backup 2.8 (a replacement for Data Backup)
-- PocketRAR 3.71
-- Windows Live 10.6.33.0600
-- aximsite wireless switcher
-- x51v Mix
-- ozVGA and WM6.1 trueVGA dlls, to switch in TrueVGA mode
-- MortScrip 4.1
-- rlToday with minii skin (see today screen shots), an alternative for Date today plugin, it display home time, plus 2 other time zone.
-- NoPluginsToday, a switcher to quickly de-activate all your plugin and re-activate them all. Plugin de-activation will boost your device.
-- MagicButton, is activated by default, so all application will close and release memory instead of being minimized (a replacement for switcher bar)
-- XnView, a better alternative for Pictures & Video, File associations is available in XnView Options. (nota: xnview embed a screen capture functionality)
-- Ramdisk see "Menneisyys" article
-- Hibernate, a powerfull tool to claim unused memory.
-- Remote Desktop Mobile
-- UC ROM capability
with following registry tricks:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ObjectStore\RegistryType=0 , (file based registry)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\"4-Way Nav"=0
Why cook a Professional rom for a non phone PDA?
The idea is to have this rom offer a better compatibility for PDA phone based applications.
This rom will first boot in WM6.1 Professional this is mandatory to have the last version of PocketCM run properly on the x51v.
I strongly suggest this freeware, it's a must for your axim (Don't forget to use a vga skin).
Running under WM6.1 Professional will display some phone related information on the upper toolbar.
To avoid that you can easily switch to WM6.1 Classic using Pro2classic under Scripts & Tricks section. Pro2Classic is a switcher that you can use to switch the OS in any of the Professional or Classic mode.
Béta00Cp, download link
Thanks wllw from 4PDA for Mirroring WM6.1 Professional Beta00B | WM6.1 Professional Beta00B
Previous béta thread for WM6.1 Classic private rom
You can use Paveld PPeditor if you want to change PagePool and generate a new crc file. (Thanks Paveld & wllw from 4pda)
Instruction to use Paveld PPeditor
Thanks Football, I started this project mainly because you sold your device. Then you came back with the fastest x51v ROM ever.
Thank you for let me know of your tweaked boot.rgu. I also used your kitchen so this new A08 Pro rom also include different applet organization and UC Rom Capability from Football kitchen.
Original A08 Classic rom and kitchen from Football are available here.

Very nice Makuu... I will start the flashing process now. I will let you know what, if any, issues I find.

Woooooooow!!!
Many thanks for share!

God. Have to wait 20 minutes. God damn you rapidshare!

At work-----must remote in to home PC now!
Makuu my friend--awesome work as usual. Will flash it tonight. Can't wait. (My lrToday skin is a little better though )

Not sure if you were aware Makuu, but a new version of Windows Live has been released.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=384178

Makuu, first... love the new ROM (even though having a few issues). For a list of issues/comments so far, read on:
(1) The volume control shows both the speaker and a phone's speaker. I believe that you corrected this in a previous ROM to hide the phone volume slider.
(2) I am having a problem (when MagicButton is running) when I go into the Dell WLAN Utility, the OK / X button, as well as all MagicButton icons (top of screen), stop responding. The start button still works so I go into Task Manager and kill the Dell WLAN Utility when I want to exit. I believe this may be related to the 'Home' icon and the WLAN connection icon sharing the same location on the top bar. (NOTE: As a work-around, if you toggle MagicButton off before using the Dell WLAN Utility, then it does not lock up the OK / X button)
(3) I am assuming that you changed the WLAN drivers? I am noticing some strange behavior with WLAN that I did not have in the previous Beta 006. For instance, when I go into the Dell WLAN Utility, click Settings (Wireless tab) and then highlight and hold my wireless network to make the sub-menu pop up, and choose Turn Off Wi-Fi it works to turn off the Wi-Fi as expected. However, if I try to hold it again and choose Turn On Wi-Fi, it does not appear to turn it back on... I just get the pinwheel spinning constantly (the busy symbol). It does appear that the Wi-Fi is turned on again, but it doesn't stop showing busy. If I click OK a couple times to get out of the WLAN Utility, the Wi-Fi icon is missing from the lower right of the screen (next to the Bluetooth icon). This also worked fine in Beta 006, although I think I remember the icon disappearing a couple of times in Beta 006 also. This makes me wonder, do we actually need the Dell WLAN Utility, or can we just use the default Wi-Fi configuration utility that comes with WM6.1? (NOTE: The Wi-Fi icon reappears after a soft-reset)
(4) Another issue with the WLAN Utility. I am having to usually turn on, then off, then back on the Wi-Fi in order to get it to connect. Sometimes, when i turn it off, then back on again, it shows immediately connected on the bottom icon (next to Bluetooth) but the icon at the top of the screen stays not connected. If I turn the Wi-Fi back off and on again, it usually clears up the issue. It is generally less reliable to connect to my wireless network now though. I suspect that you made some changes to the Wi-Fi... different drivers or something, because I did not have these issues with Beta 006.
(5) What does the 'NoPlugins Today' program do? It does not appear to do anything when I try to launch it.

Thanks mphayvanh, your skin is better for Landscape but because of the today screen it 's difficult to read the time.
djlenoir, I will check the Msn Live version that you mentioned but last time I tried a newer version, It was bigger than the one I use and so to get it working would mean that I had to remove something else from the ROM.
(1) This is a normal issue when you are running in WM6.1 Professional. That's why I have provided a switcher to WM6.1 Classic (see scripts & tricks section). Under WM6.1 classic this issue will disappear.
(2) I could not reproduce your issue with WLAN utility. But sometime MagicButon gets tricky to use.
(3) & (4) I didn't change anything there it's still the same like in beta 006.
(5) It's a toggle for activating/deactivating all the today plugin that you regularly use. After calling it once. Go to Today. Then call it again and again. You'll see what I mean.

concerning the problem 2 with wlan and magicbutton, it exists since the x51v exists. I have seen it the first time when I was still with the standard dell wm5 rom, and installed vBar (another utility that closes running programs).
You should have precised that the problem doesn't occur in all screens of the WLAN Utility, but just the one where you might enter the password to access the WirelessLan.
The problem appears with any program that replaces the smart minimize button.
I think that this screen of the wireless lan utility has a special behaviour with the smart minimize button, and that special behaviour cannot be controlled by MagicButton or other similar tools.
I have read somewhere that you can use control+Q to avoid killing the task.
Anyway I don't think this is a realy annoying Issue, since it works by exiting MagicButton before loading this screen.

Makuu,
do you plan to build a 6.1 french rom ?

good
Thank you very much
A bug: I can't find bluetooth explorer

miljbee, I need a WM6.1 French rom as basis to do so.
Jack1101, I removed it.

Cool! Will post a generic heads-up to my last misc news article.

PocketCM is THAT important?
I am not looking forward flashing a phone OS on non-phone ppc... I don't use my PPC as a contact book, I have a phone for that...
I think it's nice that you're investing on this option for the axim users, but I believe that you should not abandon the classic os...

ursoouindio, PocketCM is not part of the rom (But it's really a nice contact application that you can operate without a stylus), it's just that this rom will support it's installation. It's impossible to have it work on any other rom.
miljbee, I could not get the rom it ended to a dead link. If you have a link please post it. However, You talking of a QVGA rom, I need a VGA one.

where is this "scripts & tricks" section ?

It's embedded in the rom in Programs menu.

Bug:
Cannot select the city name when want to add new city time in the irToday.
Keyboard does not show up.
Tried on a fresh hard reset without anything installed, the keyboard still not show up when want to enter city time.
- Thanks for not including the "Bluetooth Explorer". Bluetooth explorer in Lenny's ROM is not working after installing the broadcom bluetooth driver that support A2DP. Bluetooth Explorer is practically useless.

This is a bug with lrToday, not the ROM. I haven't been able to change the initials for the days of the week for my Calendar (see my POST #5 screenshot). This has been an issue with lrToday on WM5, WM6 and still WM6.1 because the keyboard disappears all the time. I should post this issue on Rotlaus' website.

Do NOT hide Comm Manager link on Today screen (doing so will cause hanging boot).
Automatic ring profile does not switch in/out of vibrate mode: Remove HKLM\nls\overrides\SSDte registry key (date format).
Prefer the Old-Style Smart Dialing? See post #58

You should check out the keyboard from pocketcm.com. It's a cool keyboard, and it comes with different themes, including "Touch" which is black.

hmm, installed, ran htc custom 1.8, tweaked very little (turned off sim contacts, moved pie cache to the sd card, turn on d-pad navigation for pie) restarted, and got the super long restart hang.
Just did the second SR, and still getting the re-boot hang
EDIT -- finally on the 4th SR I came back up ... I now turned of the PIE cache to SD card, thinking that may be my problem... all is ok at the moment.
did thanks

pocket cm and pocket keyboard are both awsome. is it just me or is this rom a lilttle on the slow side. i have been using 3.0 since release i tried 3.6 and it was great work, but it left a bad taste in my mouth on account of the slowness, this one is not as bad as 3.6 but i think a bit slower then 3.0
Keyboard lock in phone app
Hey vp3g,
great rom as usual - one question. If the phone app keyboard lock is fixed in the "official" ROM why doesn't it carry over into your ROM?
thanks
v3.0 vs 3.61?
I have read previous questions and answers comparing 3.0 to 3.6 If I am happy with v3.0 (which I am ) what is to be gained by upgrading to this newest version? Besides being able to more easily delete unwanted cab programs?
Thanks for all the great work;
Stephan Howard-Cooper
Love the new version so far, just installed it and played with it earlier. One thing that I did notice was different was the addition of the HTC Smart Dialing for WM. It makes the dialer seem a bit quicker, and it adds some good features. I think you might of left that bit of info out of the original post, vp3g. I saw no references to this addition.
As always, it works great.. no hangs on SR's. Keep up the good work

Not fixed in the "official" 3.61, AFAIK...
I just noticed I dont have a midlet manager.. I installed the "full" version also, and nothing appears in my Programs dir. Downloading a .jar/.jad file does not start up any java engine either. Are you sure its cooked in?
Is there a way to install it without another HR?

Well, that's technically an added benefit to having been able to use Sleuth's newly updated PTTFix for WM6 (which is referenced, btw). Previously I had to cook PTT completely out of the ROM, which killed the Smart Dialing because it's all wired together. With this release PTT is cooked, then negated by PTTFix. Which is why if you want PTT support you just simply remove PTTFix (and also why PTT_Reassign.cab and PTT_Enable.cab shouldn't be installed on this version).
End result is that I didn't know how to explain the foregoing concisely in the OP.

Thank you!!
Can you explain the use of the 8 button comm manager in this one, versus the 9 button one in v3.61?
Thanks vp. i was lookin for almost a day now . lol. Will test immediately and report back.
-Nstefanelli-
i am going to try this.. i did not use your rom for quite some time.. now i want to try it once again..
Gopu
I'm in Thailand and just CANNOT download from rapidshare without paying. Would someone be so kind to upload this to another site so I can download and test it? Thanks in advance.
And thank you Vp3G for another release.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Two reasons:
1) It seems AT&T added a button (not even sure which one) within the last release or two. Only button missing now compared to the 9-button is Beam, which I very rarely use anyway. I also like the red outline when they're selected.
2) There are lots of comm managers available and it seems each person has his preference.
I'll make the 9-button available in the Add-Ons for those who prefer it.
Mirrors...
Will add a non-RapidShare mirror soon. I much prefer this to be a "controlled" BETA so to anyone else tempted to mirror, please kindly refrain.
EDIT: Mirror added. Thanks chamelion!

I finally got the file to download. Will load it up here in a few.
I like the "beam" button in the comm manager. Makes it easier to turn beam on/off.
Only problem I see with the current 3.61 is that when I click on the data icon on the top of the screen, I get the option to "Turn on WI-FI". This works fine. Once WIFI is ON and I click on the wifi icon on top it still says "Turn on WI-FI" instead of "Turn off WI-FI" and clicking it does nothing.

I myself have been a big fan of your Rom's since I came over to XDA looking for WM6 several months ago.. I have decided to upgrade to the Tilt for the internal GPS thats available.. I travel a lot for work and was on the verge of buying a BT GPS next week if the Tilt wasn't released...
I too would like to see you dissect the ATT Tilt ROM and make it worthy when you have time, until then I will have to deal with the ATT bloatware and wasted space..
I will be selling my 8525 sometime next week and I would like to put the official ATT ROM on the device for the buyer because they may want all the other stuff on it that I don't require or use, can you point me in the right direction to download the official ROM?? Thanks!

Maybe if/when AT&T quits playing around with the Hermes ROM! LOL
I'm quite surprised they're putting so much effort into a phone whose successor is already shipping...

This is the newest ROM available for at&t users. It also has the most recent official radio rom. Good luck.

Must be SuperCID or have Hard-SPL to install. Answer to your radio question is in post #1.
I'm going to be running mine with the 1.48 radio for a bit before making the switch to 1.54. Curious how battery life will compare to v3.61.
how do i check if my phone is superCid
Personal Customization
vp3G,
I am loving that you are constantly enhancing your ROMs and I love the quality. Curious though... I spend an hour or two to get my speed dial, My Text phrase settings (for e-mails and txt), cursor speed, other settings, etc. up and running after each ROM update. Is there any sort of export/import or way to back up these items?
Thanks again for all your great work!

Expanding on Matt's Pandoras Naked base ROM, I've gone and packed in what most people would require on their day to day usage of a hermes device, packed it all together in a lovely gift-wrapped box and passed it onto you.

downloaded an installed on a 8525
kind of slow, I have had problems with this build before with battery life and overall stabilty.
like you said you tested it on a dopod so maybe there is some hardware incompatabilities.
sorry but right after flash flashed right back to schaps 4.22. Maybe you need to spend more time tweaking to accommodate for user with other devices

Really? What did you use to test this? The hardware between the 8525 and Dopod 838 Pro is identical except the keyboard layout (tytn vs 8525). I used to run schaps ROM on my dopod for quite a while, and I didn't notice any speed difference at all.
EDIT: I've just been thinking - it's probably due to the setting in X-Button to close applications when you press the X - this keeps the most memory free at all times - but can slow down performance - as each application has to start from scratch each time you launch it.. To change this, click on the X-Button icon at the top right, then press the configure 'spanner', tap on the "Button" tab and select the option "End programs by tapping and holding X". This will speed up switching between applications after you've already launched them once.
No problems here
I though I'd give it a try. Even though I can't use the video portion of the 3G dialer - it has everything else I typically use in my personal build.
Nice job!

Thanks Matt, although most of the credit should go to you for the kitchen I looked at all the applications and functionality that "most people" would use in a general day-to-day usage of the device and tried to cut something that would save people a lot of time learning how to use kitchens etc just to update. Some of the features that people might want to swap and change I've tried to keep in the extended ROM so that they can be uninstalled separately if the user wants to...
The development will probably track the updates of your kitchen and have a few tweak/updates inbetween depending on what happens (application updates etc).
edit: Oh, and did you like the default ringtone? It can also be deleted as it's in \My Documents\My Ringtones if you want to free up more space or use something else.
Just rolled & uploaded Release 2 of my ROM. This adds Bluetooth Voice Dialing support using Cyberon Voice Commander.
screenshots?
Hi CRC, I think more people will use this ROM if you post some screenshots. Thanks.

Yeah - I've been meaning to do these for the past couple of days but got side-tracked with fixes... I'll whip something up now...
Ok, I've fixed the ClearVue PDF issue and corrected the X-Button configuration that was making things look really slow (when really it was a misconfiguration!). Release 3 should be fully functioning and FAST!
I have added benchmark of this ROM to my benchmark thread. You can check the results here.

Thanks KarhU... It's interesting that although it didn't get top marks in everything, there is less than 1% across the board different between the top scorers and this ROM. Some of them we missed out on by 0.1fps!
It was kind of expected as I have it running background processes etc for voice dialing etc - which will take up some resources - however it was nowhere near the difference that I was expecting...

Current benchmarking apps have their limits. I am well aware that actual differences between ROMs are in magnitude of single units of percents. Problem is that all currently available benchmarking apps are aimed to test different devices, not different ROMs on the same device. Factors like GUI responsiveness although important from end user point of view are omitted completely. I started thread in Development and Hacking forum to find a developer who would address this problem, but except from one vague reply it has no progress...
Release 4 has just been sent to the mirrors.
Changes to this version include:
Mapped button 5 press to voice dial.
Added voice dialling to Appbuttons.
Added fix for scrolling slowness in Pocket IE.
Changed keyboard skin to match theme.
Unbundled OS ROM from Radio ROM due to popular request. You can now choose your own radio version.
Can you tell me how you fixed the "slow camera fix"? I've been looking for this since I've had my Hermes. Thanks in advance.

The fix is registry based. The registry entry is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Camera\Captparam]
"DelayTime"=dword:00000001
I tried changing that value, it seems like the same. It's a small time difference. I took a picture of a car @30mph and with both settings it seems about a car length off. with shutter sound off, it's about a 1/2 car length. I changed the value in both binary & hex to 1. In these settings. Thanks for the help

First off I would like to say great ROM. It feels nice and peppy and doesn't have a bunch of things that I don't need. With that being said I do have one problem. Ever since I flashed to this firmware I cannot get my phone and the pc to sync back up. Its as if the computer doesn't even see a device connected to it. Is there someway to fix this?

I would say this has something to do with the PC. I've had this happen to me on random occasions with multiple ROMs. Try soft resetting the phone, then reboot your computer. Try changing the USB port your cable is hooked up to.
It's annoying when it does happen, but it isn't related to the ROM.

My First thanks to Football. He was there when I was starting learning cooking for the x51v, and also there to answer some questions that lead me to this new rom. Also he has provided a very interesting kitchen for the axim. I 've used this very same kitchen to build up this A09 release
This thread is actually a continuation of this one, where I have started the concept of having a private professional rom for the axim.
This is the final step of this concept. This rom is indeed a full professional rom, with this rom your x51v is not a PDA anymore, it will just become a real VOIP Pdaphone.
What is the difference between a x51v regular rom with a VOIP software (like Sjphone) and this WM6.1 VOIP rom?
Here are the main benifits once your axim is properly configured:
- You only need to turn on your wifi to place or receive VOIP call (You don't need to start any software because the VOIP is native on the OS)
- You can call directly from your contact PIM database.
- You can import call log and dialed number from any other phone using PimBackup.
- There are three way to check your PDAphone is connected to the VOIP network
1/ You can see the two network call bar from the top bar
2/ You can use the VOIP today plugin
3/ You can see your VOIP network from the phone application itself.
Also this incredible rom is available in 5 different localized version: WWE/WWE/GER/ITA/ESN/FRA
Status of these 5 roms:
Rom A09 PRO_VOIP (private "pure" edition):
WM6.1 Professional - CE OS 5.2.19965 (Build 19965.1.2.3) with "4.8 MB Pagepool"
And includes the following

It also includes avc, aac & ac3 plugin. TCPMP is an alternative to WM Player. File associations is availble in TCPMP settings
-- PIE 6.1 and YouTube plugin, scrolling can be done using directional button, PIE Ramdisk is available in Scripts & Tricks section (it uses ram for PIE cache to improve performance). About the YouTube Plugin, it works natively. If you surf on YouTube with PIE, when you click on a video a context menu will be displayed (see screenshot above).

with following registry tricks:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ObjectStore\RegistryType=0 , (file based registry)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Navigation\"4-Way Nav"=0
You can use Paveld PPeditor if you want to change PagePool and generate a new crc file. (Thanks Paveld & wllw from 4pda)
Instruction to use Paveld PPeditor
Original A08 Classic rom and kitchen from Football are available here.
Update: A09 VOIP Gold release
It's more like a dking special, those rom have :
--a patched gwes.exe to avoid the display problem in menus (thanks to dking that was kind enough to explain me his tutorial published in russian in 4pda.)
--dking patched drivers for Axim's screen backlight on minimum brightness
--Wireless Manager activated
--magic button is removed from startup
Last Update: A09 523F release
WM6.1 VOIP Pro (21055) WWE only

--dking 2700G driver
--patched Wireless Manager
--a 450 Ko dking DKLogo slot, that you can use to customize the x51v Boot Logo with dking Dell Logo Utility. The slot is preloaded with default WM6.1 welcome screen, you can put a compressed image up to 450 Ko (to compare with the Dell original logo that weight 120 Ko compressed).
--The Pro rom has native VOIP plus all WM6.1 bonus that will be installed by UC (Including My Phone and SkyMarket, and other bonus), I guess that these could be used with classic rom also but I didn't check if they would work with a non pro rom.
known bug when using the embedded new pie version: a mouse pointer is displayed, it will disappear after power off and on.
Trick
Multiple File Drag Select or Touch Scrolling Effect! (from jclampy)
For pagepool changer add the following line in fwtypes.cfg:
Dell X51v WM6.1 A09 523F -> 0x002829EE
Tip for downloading from rapidshare: use jdownloader.
If you like these rom and you wish to donate.
If you are interested by the french rom please participate here.
Localized today screens​
Some tricks related to VOIP part:
You can use up to two VOIP configuration. Using setup VOIP from Schap, you can create your 1st VOIP configuration.
Then go to \Windows\system\VOIP and duplicate the Prov1SIPSettings file to Prov1BackupSIPSettings. Re-use setup voip to configure your second VOIP configuration.
If you don't use headset, and you use the speaker and mike from the x51v (by using it up side down), reduce the speaker sound to avoid echoing.
Great job!!
I've been searching for a WM6.1 ROM in Spanish for my X51v and just found this thread. I'll test it as soon as I find a download link.
Thanks so much, makuu!

Hi makuu, there is a problem with the RS links, it says they've reached a limit of 10 downloads.
Limit reach
Hello makuu !
I've tried the download link for the WWE ROM and it's giving me the following error :
This file is neither allocated to a Premium Account, or a Collector's Account, and can therefore only be downloaded 10 times.
This limit is reached.
To download this file, the uploader either needs to transfer this file into his/her Collector's Account, or upload the file again. The file can later be moved to a Collector's Account. The uploader just needs to click the delete link of the file to get further information.

I would love to try out your VOIP PRO version. Thanks a lot for your work !
I can not use link with WWE ver.
First of all, thanks about your effort.
And, I really want to use your this rom. But, I can not down load it.
Message is "Dieses Limit ist erreicht."
Could you upload it again to other?
I am away and won't be able to upload before thursday. Please provide me with a different file hosting system, if you know other than RapidShare. So I'll upload the rom elsewhere.
I have added new links to the link.txt file.
thanks for the new ROM.
I dont use VOIP other than skype's pc-to-pc (does it cost money to find a plan) and so i also dont know how to set it up, but it seems very easy to do so.
I have noticed in the past that magic button is an awful app and very buggy. five minutes into playing with the new rom the "OK" button is not responsive.
And I've tried to configure the clock on the top (deleting the two smaller ones from the options, but on the main screen they don't disappear)
those two things aside, it is great that you have built the voip into the rom, it is very awesome.
Thanks for all your work makuu! Is there any chance you can release a kitchen for this ROM, so I can remove some applications I don't use? I usually like having a "clean" device with very few programs installed.
Thanks!
VoIP settings
Hello everyone,
I installed this great ROM a couple hours ago and it works great. I find it to be extremely fast and responsive as we all like our ROM to be !
I'm looking around these new built-in apps and features and the one that interests me the most is of course the VoIP feature, right !
At first I though I could use Skype to set my VoIP account but after I looked up on the Skype web site, I found it to be NOT SIP compatible ...
I live in Canada, Quebec to be precise, and I'm looking for a SIP VoIP provider where I could create an account and use the awesome VoIP now built-in feature in my Axim !! I looked at Vonage and Gizmo but still not convinced what to use. I prefer minutes tarification over monthly plans.
Would you guys like to share your SIP provider here to help the community ?
Thanks a lot makuu for the ROM and everyone else who's contributing to this site !
Hi Makuu,
Are you using the new ramdisk provided by AMV (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=382944) or the old one linked to by menneisyys? The new one provided by AMV doesn't use dirver memory and it's compiled for windows mobile 6.0.
bub
Thanks makuu, lets try
I would like to thank Makuu for sharing his files with us.I do understand it is a personal rom.
Flashed my X51v last night, I was using makuu's last pure rom which I like very much after I change to broadcomm bluetooth.
I have some comments on this rom....
Clicking the clock or calendar doesnt bring up anything (i never used that proggy before but shouldn't it bring up clock or calendar?)
Also in settings removing the other two clocks doesnt do anything ( i assume because the proggy is in rom,it doesnt save any changes?)
I only have 24megs free ram after...I wont be able to run much programs...any way to squeeze any more ram?
Like the user a few above me, any Sip Void providers to share ? I been researching and see a few, all cost money ,lol.
I am in the USA
I am also Skype user, I havent installed it yet but I assume it will work together as the SIP type is using the PDA's phone part.
Thank you for this rom,I actually havent tried bluetooth or much else yet,I am looking for Sip provider to see if its worth losing all that ram (nice feature tho to make it work like a smartphone)
I may just flash back to the old rom I was using.
You should have more than 30 Mo after reset. If you have less it might be because you mounted a ramdisk.
I don't know in North America but here in France, we get SIP account from our Internet Provider. From my IP, I get Internet, TV and land line phone. With my land line I have free call to 70 land line countries in the world that include mostly Europe, North &South America and main Asia Pacific. I can use my axim to connect to my voip account so I can call free to the same regions. I have two sip profiles, one than I use from free hot spot, and an other one that connect via WPA and certificate + password that can connect to any Wifi modem from the same IP provider that are within the range of my axim via wifi. This rom make it autoconnect in any of those two cases using the stronger wifi signal.

I have used the kitchen provided by Football.
About the ramdisk, I have used the old one and built the rom around so the ramdisk will vanish after a reset. I think I tried the new one but didn't really saw the benefits, and I am not sure it would disappear after a reset.

3g does work if but youll need a 3g dialer. i didnt see it as an important feature as most people dont seem to use it. there are plenty of 3g dialers out there and most of the good ones youll find here on the forums or you could search on google

Home 2.0 - sweetest yet... man you have really blown it off the chart. I am thinking this is gonna be my new favorite. So far I haven't found a bug. I will mention that I had to flash the stripped ROM before I could flash yours. I am missing the calculator, would really like to see one with stat functions and basic algebra stuff, but even a 4 function would be welcome if it is skinned consistently.
Excellent work I'll keep you updated on my tour.
Flash complete.
Sync with Vista - complete. Napster download - good.
WIFI Scan & Connect -good.
Bluetooth a. iniate/deactivate from cp - good. b. initiate/deactivate from comm mngr - good. c. Connect to BT Headset - good. Stereo Quality - good.
Waking up. Turning on the device takes kinda longer than I'm used to.
Didn't notice a MMS app or device update (although CRC's shows in the remove programs applet).
Will look more tomorrow... so far .... Awesome!

the mms comes up as pics/video in messaging
Hi!
I have just installed the home ROM, as I'm looking for a fast and stable Manila2D alternative. Here's my first, quick opinion (as compared to Manila2D)
Pros (as compared with M2D):
+ Looks cooool, works VERY fast and smooth even though free memory usually is below 10MB.
+ On today screen you see all today's and tomorrow's appointments
+ There is a Task-applet
+ Home2 won't kill itself all the time
Cons
- Home2 (free edition) isn't sufficiently customizable. I.e. you can't add own cities to the world applet. Berlin isn't even included in the city list, so it's of no use for a german user.
- Free memory is too low to start some programs (i.e. YouTube). No easy way to exit Home2 to free up memory, though.
Will check for more later
Christina
Alsoloaded the home edition and love the gui, but have had a couple of issues coming out of s2u2 and gui not loading, needing to hard reset.
could you leave S2U2 out of the next release or at least having the option of uninstalling it if not required.
Other than that and the high memory usage i think its great, far nicer than Manilla and no other issues at present.
Keep up the good work
Love the Titanium and would prefer with S2U2. Too bad it freeze upon installing Arcsoft MMS v5. The NetWiz isn't stable, sometimes it didn't configure MMS well in the messaging drop-down. The MMS will go missing after a few MMS attemp. Do you have any idea where I went wrong.
And still I couldn't fine any suitable 3G dialer that can work with the Titanium.

I was considering adding s2u2 into my next titanium edition. Thought id start off with somthing quite basic and build on it based on the feedback i get. Youll definately see it in my next release.
As for arcsoft mms v5 ive read about people having alot problems in 6.5. I dont tend to use mms myself but decided to add it as its a feature that can be quite handy. Ill experiment more with it when building my next release and see if i can get it working to a worthwhile standard
Caution (beta time bomb)
Hi
Like the ROM very much, but there's a bit of a partystopper included: The ROM will lock itself on a certain date. Don't know exactly when, but it's some day before July 28th. I've changed the date to +4 months (to check whether a certain program has a trial period or not) and the phone was instantly and irreversibly locked: Everything was down, phone, WLAN, OS, USB. Hard resets wouldn't help, Activesync wouldn't connect. Nothing but this message on the screen:
"This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers...."
You have to reflash (via SD-card) to get the phone running again. This seems to be a common "feature" of many Beta-WM versions, as used in this ROM (i.e. read here about this too). Will have to find another ROM that won't expire...

If you do include it, could you make the option of uninstalling as I find it uses a lot of memory and when theres not a lot already its nice to save where possible.
The default screen lock is quite good on these new versions, especial;ly with your background wallpaper.
Look forward to trying your next1

Hmm...identical problem and once it gets there, there's nothing to do but re-flash, very frustrating!
