And if you like this work and you want to give me a little present...don't be afraid to donate
can we please have this build with manila 2d cooked in the rom?
thanks, great work
nice, will test as soon as i get home to download. if it wsnt on rapidshare i would download and flash from my mobie but rapidshare (free) doesnt allow download to mobile on large files.
I was waiting to see this on my Athena as well an my Raph, it seems faster to me, previous builds felt a tad slower.
Thanks for the Port Michy
Cheers
BR
any user review yet? what work, what doesnt, does everything work, etc...
My Observations so far:
-it looks like the blank notification screens seem to be fixed.
-it seems to be a bit better on memory usage & reclaiming.
-looks like PIE is in somewhat more working order as well.
-some other small things just seem to run more smoothly.
Cheers
BR

To instal from NBH
I know I have done this before but have no clue now how to extract installation file from the NBH, I've searched and used the NBH extract tool but oly extracted 1 NB file, which I don't know what to do with. Advise will be appreciated.

what are you trying to do? are you trying to flash the rom to your device? if so you don't need to extract the .nbh just click on the RomUpdateUtility.exe that is in the extracted folder (make sure your device is connected first) and go through the prompts.
EDIT:
so I just download and saw that update utility isn't there. I will try to upload for you.
EDIT:
so change this just from .zip to .rar and extract to a folder, then exact/put michy's ruu_signed.nbh into that folder, click the updateutility and follow the promts.
any problems you might have just state so. or send me a private message
You're very Helpful

That was very helpful of you, I've downloaded the file and did not have to add rar extension as I simply unzipped and moved the NBH into same file. I can't say thank you enough, been on this for past 3 hours, now It's updating. Cheers.
Thanks again Michy.
Yes, if troubles just download Michy's 21198 file and replace Nbh with this current one since the old one had installer in it. Works fine.
Definitely seems faster even after programs loaded. Incoming calls/sms don't seem to cause slowness with notifications. Very smooth.
Active Synch problems persist, works like a charm the first time then after any soft reset cannot get to resume synching
Noticed that Garmin Mobile XT's attempts to launch but doesn't. After a soft reset it launches then freezes. Will continue to test other applications to see what's going on.
enjoy it tonight .
he he
thanks more
Hello,Michy:
Thanks for ur effor on athena.
I have installed beta3 and beta4 on my device. There is a problem on both roms. When I play xvid(avi) files by tcpmp, there is always error message, tcpmp has trouble on wav(sound) output. The video is ok, but there is no sound. After I use tcpmp to play avi video, the whole device has no sound output, what I can do is to reboot my device.
Anyway, it's a great rom, thanks again.
Great work Michy!
Here is what I found until now:
1) Link of Menu settings in Settings/Personal doesn't work at all.
2) Link of Wow Settings, USB to PC, SMS Mode, ROM information in Settings/System doesn't work after the 2nd boot, but if you reboot again problem solved (4th now and no problem).
4) In Sounds & Notifications when you open it says that the ring tones are corrupted and you can't exit the application, problem solved on the 4th reboot after I opened the same tab from Phone/Options/.
5) Battleship's and moBlue's lower screen missing on landscape mode.
6) There seems to be a mess up with the VGA drivers and the enabling of X7510 Autorotate Service and the Submenu. The screen gets distorted in the upper half part. 5th reboot now and seems like problem solved, for now, but from the 3rd reboot I have disabled the Submenu.
7) After a while of using the ROM the Program memory goes almost to zero.
8) Is it my idea or the VGA drivers don't perform so well???
9) Can't confirm sync problem since I didn't had anything yet 5th sync and going well.
10) When pressing on the power button on the upper right corner I can't open the power menu, the link is broken???
Again great work!
downloading now
downloading now...beta3 had a problem with the threaded sms, once they build up in a conversation it becomes a nightmare to send an sms or to just close the conversation after reading one! hope this is fixed
Always a reminder to HARD reset at least once after a new ROM!
Ringtone issue is fixed for me
Active Synch works great, then seems to break after a soft reset. I haven't even had to soft reset since yesterday though so we'll see.
Performance seems a LOT better this go round.
Spanish Rom or Multilang?
I test it and work fine,but Do you will make multiling rom or spanich rom.
thanks
Removing Voice Commander
Is there a way to remove or disable voice commander so it will not interfere with MSVC?
exellent rom michy, its just super sweet! I was gonna write a whole list of stuff, but I might do it later from the phone. keep up the good work.
I have to say that TouchPal now works with this build flawlessly, no hickups, it even seems faster than on 6.1 too. happy camper here.

ok right now i'm running the love rom on my g4 wizard. how do i reflash my original cingular rom? i know, it sounds like a nub question but here is the problem. it will flash then hang at 80% and the progress bar will turn red. it will then pick up again and continue to 95% then turn red, fail and say error 326 invalid command. i downloaded the updater directly from htc.
any ideas guys?
Yeah it doesnt work....Your now stuck with the Wizard Love Rom or you can upgrade to another rom but you cant go back to the original Cingular Rom.

ok i reflashed with your method and i'm back to my cingular rom. thanks a lot!
(big reason to go back was it was the only rom that my school's wifi app would work with, plus the love rom in combo with orwells wm6 wasn't cool. that splash was ugly IMO)

All you have to do is download and install the Ext Rom cabs manually. This may still be available on the ftp. If not PM me.
It worked for me
Thanks a lot ercave1, the ROM flashed flawlessly, however the EXT ROM didn´t came up by itself. The features I´m missing are as follows:
1.- USB switch to select activesync mode to serial or RNDIS is missing, regardless this USB sync to PC (Activesync 4.5) is alive and working well.
2.- ClearVue pdf is missing, not a big loss and I really don´t care since there´s another alternatives to read and diisplay pdf documents.
3.- GetGood and in general all connection settings! I don´t give a s**t!!
4.- MIDlet Manager, big loss... I´m going to keep trying to download Risidoro_Intent_MIDlet_ Manager_V11 whenever the ftp be up and running again. So no worries.
5.- Voice Speed Dialing Settings icon in both the Program ans Setting screens are missing, however the software is running when I press the known VSD button.
6.- Cingular carrierlogo! I don´t care I have my own logo.
And I guess that´s it !
Regardless the comments above, I´d like to learn how to "extract" the correspondent EXT ROM cab files, if you guys have and advice on it would be great.
Thanks again ercave1 for the big help

Yes, this is because the Ext Rom was wiped out by the G3 Rom having been flashed on your G4 devices. I don't remember reading about a fix for this, but you may want to search through the forum. The only solution I'm aware of is to install the Ext Rom manually.
I'm glad you guys got the device running again.

Reflashing ExtROM CID Locked
Who knows Russian go to http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=32996 & read my post
And the one who does not know it?
thanks to: Murchelago
literal from the Russian to English
it is the first step. if someone can polish it (I do not speak English good).....
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Already many know that mun built Shell Of tool, which was capable of pouring axis into Wizard G4 with [lochennym] [Sidom], but to the enormous regret it does not know how to pour with [ekstrom].
Recently it decided to be played a little with the program of nb2nbf and to verify, is it possible by nevertheless any means to renew also Extended Of rom to CID-Locked apparatuses. And which there was my happiness, when I revealed after [pereproshivki] that he renewed.
It decided by the same method to try to flood Splash Of screen and HTC Of logo - everything proved to be very simply.
In view of the small quantity of information on the forum on [devaysu] Of wizard G4, it decided to build brief instruction on its [pereproshivke].
1. We stitch through apparatus by pure piercing - Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii+CF2.
http://rapidshare.com/files/8651097/Wizard...E_Novii_CF2.rar
2. By the program of typho5 we unpack nbf the file of piercing, which we desire to pour into the beast.
First we fill up into the folder with the program of nbf, and then start with the parameter of typho5.exe - x nk.nbf. After procedure we obtain several files, in number of which is contained OS itself, Extended Of rom, and also as a rule Splash Of screen and HTC Of logo.
([ZY]. For convenience in the use of program made [batnik]. Simply you will place nbf into the folder and will neglect typho.bat)
3. Now we gather our nbf file, each at will can include any desired components in it, naturally, except axis itself.
4. We go in very [progu] of nb2nbf and we make the following tuning:
- We establish Model ID: WIZARD
Language: it is empty
OEM: it is empty
Operator of version: it is empty
CID: it is empty ([ochen]_[vazhno]); remove the numbers, which are contained inside the field
- We establish [galochku] opposite “File of # 1”, we click on the button of survey (button with three points), we find the file Of extended Of rom' and (in the folder of typho5, the exemplary name of 9b000000-Extension.nb)
- In the field “Of start Of address” we enter 9b00000
- In the field “Of image Of name” we enter Extension Of rom (not Extended Of rom, you be attentive!!!)
- In the point “Of file of # 2” we find Splash Of screen, in the field of address we enter 92000000, in the field “of image of name” we write Splash Of screen.
- In the point “Of file of # 3” we find HTC Of logo, in the field of address we write 9d000000, in the field “of image of name” we write WITH HTC Of logo.
- We press button “Translate”
- Extended ROM is ready, it is possible to stitch through.
Unnecessary for you files it is possible simply not to include, but to insert, for example, only one by [ekstrom].
5. We place the obtained file of nbf into the folder [proshivalshchikom] and start. Procedure as with the usual piercing, lasts in all the pair of minutes.
6. We pour the axis Of shell Of tool' ohm from mun' of a.
Finale - valuable piercing
Don´t know

I enumerated the options since each have its own reason
1- Use Winrar to open RUU.exe and use typhoonnbfdecode.pl to extract the 10MB file (0xA00000 bytes) of the extended rom from nk.nbf
2- oops, same as 1 (and its nk.nbf- not nk.nba). hehe, my mistake
3- use pdocread.exe to read BDTL1 - or TRUEFFS_DOC1 (use my Wizard Service Tool as it can be done with a few clicks )
4- Unhide extended_rom and use Active Sync to copy the files to PC (or, once again use my tool to do the same )
cheers
Sounds great to me!

Thanks a lot mestrini, I appreciate your input and I´ll give it a try right away!
Simple steps on howto
1. download the kitchen Download
2. download Prophet Touch X rom Get it here
3. extract Kitchen and Prophet Touch X to separate folder
4. Place the OS.nb from Prophet Touch X in the rom folder of the Kitchen
5. run Buildos.exe and choose what to include (the marked apps are the once that are in Prophet Touch X) press the green play button and wait for it to finish
6. run CreateROM.bat (if there is any error the you have included to much in the Buldos prosess)
7. if there were no error the new OS.nb is in the temp folder move it to the Prophet Touch X folder and overwrite the os.nb in it
8. flash any step 1 WM5
9. now Flash your new rom within Prophet Touch X folder
if everything is done right you should have your new coocked rom on your Prophet
I have put all the things that should not be removed into the SYS folder so do only make changes to the OEM folder till you know more about cooking .
replace the HTC Audio Manager with this one
View attachment OEMAudioManager.zip
New HTC Album with folder option
View attachment HTCAlbumFolderOption.zip
Extras and links
I'll upload some addons for the kitchen later on as I've made more OEM packs
You can also search for oempacks to include but be aware that some OEM packs are device depented
Some cool tools that I use but have not included in kitchen You'll need to understand what they do before using them
HyperCore Kitchen cool for dumping roms and building ( I use it for dumping)
this is great.. awesome.
Great job Gullum. Now guys, we all should start frying Hokienmee or Char Kueh Teow (both chinese cuisine)

good news
i'll try it
for every change in X and flashing it, is it always necessary to do step 1 again (wm5 flashing) ?
When I do hard reset and at the "tap screen to go on" point, I could start flashing X too ?
What I mean, is the complete rom exchanged when I flash X, or do some parts from wm5 or old X (IX, VIII ....) remain ?
I've try to cook today.. BUt seems something is going wrong...
Better I flashed it back to the original touch X ROM...
I also had some bad luck with cooking.
I did everything gullum said, flashed 'new' TouchX, did hard reset and then when its time to see welcome screen and 'press any key.....' there is blank white screen! Nothing happens no matter which button i press! Any ideas?

I did the same think.
At my case, i have enter today screen.. But I think, its programs don't install clearly.. (hard reset don't help either.)
The first screen is the same one as you.. The white one.. Maybe you should to try ask Gullum again..
I just flash back to Touch IX with another Ext ROM. QuickMenu in that ext.ROM
thanks gullum
I would like to translate this rom to Portuguese can you give some advices? our some tutorial to do that, please? can i do that with this soft?
best regards
thanks (for this perfect kitchen) gullum ,some 3 questions i have :
1.>how to get oem or make one ,and
2.>how to get .dsm , .rgu files of my favorite software . and
3.>how do i make registry changes prior to build os are they automatic
Note :ext_rom files attributes should be read only since its like that in original rom so i made them read only(i think its healthy for system files any virus won't be able to modify it unless the file needs to be appendable updateable it should be read only),plus i deleted alot of thumbs.db files lying in many folders (about >2mb) just to clean oem folder files off thumbs.db i know winxp might be making them all the way .
i corrected audio manger with this kitchen (its gr8),i can't seem to solve camera album (have solved solution given below )problem ,it seems to have come back you know i can't use gestures , what to do ,any reg setting solution.
Edit : **corrected** the setting in reg hklm\software\htc\htcalbum\cacheserial to 2130706432
and hklm\software\htc\htcalbum\default_viewer to 0
if it still don't get solved set first 11 enteries (h_enable to v_pos) value to 0 in
hklm\software\htc\htcalbum\touchscroll\htcalbumclass
i'll try to provide a cab but this forum has alot of intelligent members

2 reasons 1.> i hope you are pressing play(top left in build OS)button after whatever you choose,with what ever you want in it.
2.>your file size has to be limited its almost full with this kitchen so you have to remove some item like voice dialing (which i seldom use) or some other item removed before you add some item since size dependency is very important here ,and later run create rom .remember you cannot select everything because of space limitation .
Hello Gullum
I'm trying to do very basic thing adding Windows Live package into the OS.nb but it fails during CreatROM.bat. At BuildImgfs.exe the application BuildImgfs.exe crashes and show the error message and whether to send a report to MS or not (I don't send...).
I just directly add Windows Live to your OS.nb. Is it already fully loaded? Should I remove something before?
question with task manager
something is wrong with task manager.
in control panel ,its setting doesn't work!
Same problem.
Whatever i select in buildOS, BuildImgfs crashes.
Last records is CreateROM.bat window is:

It's for the Diamond, but assuming it works on the Raph, Da_G, can you work your magic and integrate whatever's needed from here into your kitchen(s)?
OEM_Misc.dll
Extracted Diamond_audioplayback.exe contents, verified _Setup.xml, Platformxxx.reg and CM_Entries.xml:
- No registry changes
- Attached file is copied to .\Windows folder on device
Place file in .\OEM\OEMDrivers if cooking in kitchen.
Cheers,
Thanks -- trying it in my own ROM now ...
hilaireg is way ahead of me
ill check it out when i get home from the hospital! sounds good
Super-newbie question: What did you use to extract it from the EXE?
@Da_G:
Figured your queue was full enough as it is
@Wordsmith9091:
I used WinRAR 3.3 (IZArc 3.81 couldn't open the .EXE). Once it was extracted, I had a look at _setup.XML as it contains the short-to-long filename conversion details.
I renamed the pertinent files (previous post) and had a look at the content in those to ensure that there were no special requirements.
I used IZArc 3.81 to .ZIP up the file so that it could be posted here.
Thanks -- I learn a new trick every time I come to this site
Just tried building my ROM with it, all seems well so far, though I havne't played enough audio to test yet ...
... but I lost the ability to set button assignments other than Button-1-hold in the buttons panel -- it's like the stock behavior. Is that also controlled by this DLL?
Edit: Never mind, I'm a moron, this issue had nothing to do with this DLL
I don't think so ... the Stock HTC ROM only included "Button 1" which drives me crazy.
I've got a task on my list to deal with that I soon as I'm done some other kitchen related stuff.
I'll post up - unless someone beats me to it - once I figure out how to get button mapping.
Cheers,
I can't be 100 percent sure it's what interfered with button mapping, but it's the only thing I can think of that i've done different between builds.
Since this fix only requires a single DLL copied to the \Windows folder, I was able to cab it up using ChainFire's DriverWiz tool, and install it. I stream music via A2DP during every car ride, so I'll be able to test this on my ride home. I'll attach the cab if anyone else wants to try it as well.
You make me proud Captain
Following your lead, I have attached a .ZIP that can be used in a kitchen; to use:
Extract the .ZIP to the PACKAGES folder.
Verify that the <GUID>'s on the .DSM don't collide with ones you are currently using.
Remove the OEM_MISC.DLL from the .\OEM\OEMDrivers folder.
Cook away.
Note:
Tested on Da_G's (ERAS2R/Me) 21042 kitchen.
HTH,
HTC Diamond Hotfix..
Many thanks Captain_Throwback for the CAB, am testing Music Player now. The HTC version will not install on the Orange Diamond says 'Not Compatible'.
... 25mins in..clean as a whistle!!
....3 albums in, job done.
Never mind on the button-mapping question. I realize what I did (I think). HAd nothing to do with this dll.
Any info you can pass my way?
hilaireg -- PMed you.
Well, I drove around for a bit after cooking this in and reflashing, and I still got some skips listening to music in Kinoma Play. Don't know if that's Kinoma's fault or if it's a symptom of the problem this is meant to address. I wasn't getting any skipping with the TF3D player even before applying this.
improvement?
I saw a noticeable improvement in the length of pauses in between my songs while streaming over A2DP (though it did get stuck on me after about 20 minutes). Its better than it was . . . I think. I don't know if there's really a scientific way to test this, really. Maybe the problem this is supposed to address isn't that at all. Maybe we need to find someone who actually KNOWS they have this problem, so we can see if the fix really helps.
Hotfix for Diamond..
I have a Diamond on the Orange Network with the stock HTC 1.93 ROM. It used to skip every 5 mins but after installing your CAB it is now perfect, not a glitch. I am a very happy bunny. Thanks for your work Captain..

Finally Working Bluetooth problem
For ATOM/ATOM PURE ONLY
Download link moved to post #2
Step by step upgrading
NOTE: These steps only apply if you have an ATOM/ATOM Pure.
Basically, there are three steps to flash a custom ROM to your ATOM.
1. Choose and download your choice of custom ROMs
2. Flash the custom ROM to your Atom using the Device Software Update Utility (DSSU)
3. Flash the custom ROM using MiniSD
Preparation
Backup your personal information using a program such as PIM Backup (freeware). Also make sure your phone has at least a 50% charge. You need M$ ActiveSync 4.5 for XP or Windows Mobile Device Center for VISTA and 7 to upgrade your device through PC.
Please read through this guide and download the all the necessary files beforehand. That way, you know exactly what you're getting into.
Choose and download your custom ROM
There are many, many custom ROMs out there for the Atom.
Look through the threads and find a ROM that you like. Custom ROMs differ in their preinstalled software, system settings, performance tweaks, and more.
ROMs usually come compressed in a .zip file. Extract the downloaded ROM file to somewhere on your hard drive temporarily in preparation for the next step.
Flash Custom ROM Using DSSU
Copy the custom ROM file (usually came with 6 files) to C:\WINDOWS\Temp folder you just extracted.
Once you've got everything hooked up correctly, run the Device Software Update Utility (DSSU).exe program inside of the C:\WINDOWS\Temp folder you just copied. Follow the onscreen instructions to flash the custom ROM to your phone. Reboot your phone at the end and you're finished. Enjoy the new custom ROM!
In case you can't update the ATOM in active mode, you may need to update by entering bootloader mode. Hold the down power and camera button and use your stylus to press reset button at the same time until you see monochrome bootloader screen. Then connect your phone via USB cable to your computer.
Follow the onscreen instructions to flash the custom ROM to your phone. Reboot your phone at the end and you're finished. Enjoy the new custom ROM!
Flash Custom ROM Using MiniSD
*Not recommended
Here's the step how to flash your Atom using MiniSD.
1. Extract downloaded custom ROM to somewhere on your harddrive.
2. Cut first 12byte header of diskimage_Ver.nb0 using hex editor.
3. Rename diskimage_Ver.nb0 to diskimg.nb0
4. Rename ExtendedROM.img to extended.img
4. Copy both files diskimg.nb0 and extended.img to your miniSD
Now, hold the down power and camera button and use your stylus to press reset button at the same time until you see monochrome bootloader screen. The Atom will flash the new ROM automaically. Once it done, setup the device and enjoy the new custom ROM.
Big thanks to HelloWorld, [email protected], Tj's and all atom tester...

Not expected for DONATION, but always appreciated it.
Thanks Glossy.....wow first one in line..........
Downloading now and will flash it later.....will update you from the try outs.
Good work though!
I'm wondering and really hope if this is very CLEAN, FAST & STABLE WM6.5 ROM in LOW BATTERY CONSUMPTIONS for O2 XDA Atom. Thanks before GlossyX1, you're the Atom ROM masterpiece too!
Wow! Great!
Thank you for this new build. Will try soon...
Have a try and gimme some report...
Gloss,
Tried for half a day now, this is what I have :
- overall, this built is much better than the previous, in terms of memory and battery
- overall functions and programs ran smoothly and no problems
- calls and receiving calls all good
- I can't seem to set the ringer mode to ring and vibrate but the phone by default now will ring and vibrate even if not set for vibrate, so no complains there
- persian blue works nicely to compensate for WM6.5 not able to locate any bluetooth device to beam
- Tested and still unable to sync/add more than 2 bluetooth devices, but at least I managed to get activesync working and also my handsfree, that's all I want anyway.
- taps and display are all fast, no issues there.
- booting from hard and soft reset are coming up nicely now
- one advice for user of this ROM is don't try to unlock the Extended ROM and use, the Extended ROM not very stable and when it crash, you will have problem reseting and booting your device, takes a long time and a few soft resets
But overall for me, this is a good, clean and stable ROM(forgetting about the bluetooth issue). Thanks to Glossyx1 and Helloworld1.............
Let's hope someone comes up with a permanent fix for the bluetooth issue, then this will be the defacto WM6.5 for Atom's!

What do you mean by unlock the EXTENDEDRom? I use this ROM for several days and found no problem on my device. Now I uninstalled PersianBluetooth to save more memory.
Did you found another issue? Has anyone else try this ROM?
I am in the road right now and im gonna try it tonight when i got home. one thing i would like to know if it is possible to install Spb Mobile Shell (current version is 3.5) and install MSkip ProPlus Elegance skin since I like this skin so much? if it is possible, what is the xda atom resolution based on the list QVGA, WQVGA, VGA, WVGA? sorry not familiar with and this is a bit off topic but I am consider sticking on this rom until such time that there is a solution for the bluetooth issue.

Waiting for your feed. I'm not tested yed to install SPB mobile, but there's no issue when I install another cab application. You have to try it by your self and give us a report. ATOM is QVGA device. thanks
Gloss,
What I mean by unlocking the Ext ROM is that I installed the unlock extended cab file so that the Ext ROM will be visible via file explorer or Resco explorer. Unless the cab I am using is not working properly for WM6.5(it's meant for WM6) but after I unlock it and became visible, I installed a few application on the Ext ROM to try, it was working fine until I need to soft reset the device(as some application do), then the Ext ROM is no longer visible and takes a long time to reboot(think OS can't get at the Ext ROM). Well, other issues is as my previous post, the ring mode can't set to ring and vibrate but it vibrates anyway. Then the same problem with bluetooth not able to add more than 2 devices still there. Otherwise I would say all is prefect.
As for SPB Mobile Shell, I tried installing it before under Helloworld's ROM(21869) before but does not work. The application installed okay but just could not get it to run, do not know why? Maybe some software conflict?
Add application
Hi Gloss,
Where or how can I add applications(.exe) manually in WM6 to the program or Today menu section? Is there a way? I am trying to add some other application like Torch Light, Chess games etc.
So far so good your ROM........(up till now)....
Vince
I mean WM6.5(this ROM)....

I see, you can't unlock the EXTRom as it is configured automatically in a file named config.txt. So, every chef has configured it depend on what it is configured in config.txt to EXTRom. Another thing, don't ever use other EXTrom but what is it included on ROM package, it wont work.
For the Ring mode, I can set it as usual in ring mode. Just go to setting->sound and notification->incoming call. Not working??? Try this, set to ring and vibrate, restart and set to ring.
Bluetooth??? Need some magic
I just tried to install SPB 3.5 and it works as well

No you cant, while run standalone application (.exe) you wont see any shorcut because it not registered to registry and doesn't have any shortcut (lnk). You can try to build CAB file and set all shortcut in (initflash.txt) for eq to put TorchLight.exe then write it down Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\"):-File("Torch.lnk","\Windows\TorchLight.lnk"), it will show Torch on Start Menu->Programs
Try this to make a CAB file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400221
Yeap, learned that after unlocking it today....had to reflash again and the 2nd time I did not unlock it, all fine after that. I was hoping to use some of the available memory on Ext ROM, so no choice then.
Thanks for the link for making cab, will go thru the thread and learn some cab making...
Cheers and keep at it......good ROM there.....clean and stable! The way it should be!
So bluetooth handfree is not working again

It usual happen while atom run out of memory. My ROM preinstalled with PersianBluetooth, when you try to install custom home screen eq SPB then your screen goes white. Here is a tip for you: Try to remove PersianBlue and see what happen. I'm not recommended to use any custom Home Today screen because WM6.5 use more resource than you can expected.

I don't have any bluetooth device, test it by your self and give me feedback.
Cheers...
Dragon,
Bluetooth handsfree is fine, working. Only issue is choose your bluetooth devie wisely as you can only add 2 bluetooth device only at the moment. So for me, luckily 2 is just enough, one for activesync and one for handfree(bluetooth). The reason is after you added the 2nd bluetooth device, you can't see add new device tap anymore.
Good luck....

Good news
I would to try it out. Can you upload your android package here?
yes, nike users can use the package for the vogue. the problem for me was that nike could not wake up after sleeping because we have different key mapping than vogue or kaiser. how is ur battery life?
im on school right now.
when im home, ill upload a complete rip of my SD card.
what i've done is the following:
i downloaded the pack for the HTC kaiser/vogue etc.
then i used the default.txt from a android made for the htc niki.
the only thing i changed in there was change "Zimage" to "Zimage-monsha"
then i could just install the andoid on my sd card and run it.
i don't know about the battery life yet, i didn't test it very well yet.
it's pretty laggy though so it will need some very good improvements.
Did your data work? I also got eclaire runniung on nike on ext2 partition using the methods from the vogue forums, but I noticed some issues:
- No data
- Slow
- I Tried to patch the new 3d driver stuff into the kernel. Afterwards i had accellerated graphics without textures (live wallpapers). But i have the same issue on some combinations of older builds, kernels and rootfs.
I also tried other builds from ext2 (all without rootfs, no working data on any of them , but it seems like the old versions with rootfs work better (-> data works)
i did not test it anymore.
i was at school.
rightnow im at home, so ill make a rip of my sd card, this is not formatted in ext2 or something.
i just deleted all the data on the sd card, and i just installed it.
it will take a while to upload, cause its pretty big.
right now im going to upload the .rar file.
it is 115 MB big, so make sure your sd-card is bigger than 512 MB

i tryed with sleepmode on 0, and it just worken, also on 1 it just worked.
i do not know how to see if full sleep is working, but it could be also working on the HTC Touch-Dual *NIKI*
set pm.sleep_mode=4. Data don´t work. Data don´t work on Nike with more new Android OS like donuts(1.6) or eclair(2.1) only in olders like android 1.5. Nike handsets lacks of android developers. We have no luck like Polaris/Vogue/Kaiser/Diamond users
i know, but i edited the default.txt a lil, by changing the resolution, i had less lagg, but it does not show the whole screen :S
even when im using the resolution of the screen :X
if u set the sleepmode to 0, can u wake the device? i never been able to. could u post just your default.txt here? anyway, data is working for me.
Running
I tried this, i'ts running, here's my report:
1. I cannot make a call (incoming or outcome).
2. I cannot send the SMS
but the operators carries found..

yes it awakes then.
and i did not test it with sim yet, the first thing i wanted to do is a good fast stable android build.
i found one, only one problem:
you cannot install it on your niki, i have to take the data.img and system.img from a HTC Kaiser(which uses my dad)
i already got a rip, right now im going to test if that works.
then i will delete all settings in there, and upload it here, one thing; it is REALLY fast!!

Hi there,
Tried it here in Germany. Boots fine, but no Data. Carrier shows up and after creating a new APN, The Modem APP shows active Connection, IP Address and so on. But for some Reason, there's no Flow of Data...
Any Ideas ?

Data don´t work on Nike with the more newest android builts. We lack developers
I noticed that data works on eclair and donut, but the connection drops after a (very) short time. Sometimes I was able to load one or two webpages after a fresh boot until the connection went down (20Key Nike, O2 Germany). I also got google sync once working for a few seconds (enough to fetch mail).
So it seems to be more a stability issue than a general lack of data connection.
Does anyone have developent experience with android? I am now compiling the eclair build with the latest libraries from the vogue andoid git tree, but if someone already knows were the data problem is or what it could be i could find a faster solution, any in the development would be great.

It´s true. It is like get freezed. If you go to modem and you want to disconnect it say disconnected but you can see still the icon and sometimes the up arrow. After this if you want to turn off the hanset you can´t and its needed a soft reset. So after get connect and with a luck to browse two webpages it get freezed
