Blue Angel wm5.0 working faster than ever...try this

[MUTTY]

Since i am relatively new to ppcs, i read almost all the forums to upgrade my BA to wm5.0
the first try, it was so slow, i tried the overclock software, pocket hack master and more, it still had ten second pauses when turning on or waking up. plus the phone was lagging, (slow)
I dont know but i stumbled on this by mistake,
Warning: Backup all data on your device to your computer..
(make a backup compy of all your data on computer)

1) all i did was the following press: (camers + record+ reset "hold untill options appears") then wait until some options appear on the screen, (three options with Yes/No options) I did the same as before, leave the first as No, the last two as Yes, then press the e (internet key), it will reset itself, this takes about 5 secs, this wipe my phone clean, every installed program was gone, brand new....

point1-> do not copy old backup folders to ur device, make only one new directory in my documents (i called mine Files) and place all your files and sub-folders in there.
Note: you will still have the folders, business, personal and my pictures
plus couple others
point2-.just like a PC using MS software, the OS looks for all directories before making next steps.. for example: if you open my documents on the Pc and my documents have a lot of directories/folders and files, the OS will locate all the folders and files before actually shoing a picture in my documents.
The ppc does the same, the less folders you make the better, the faster it runs, the amount of files doesnt matter, the OS keeps special tags on folders and these takes time to read, (NO, the OS doesnt check for sud-folders unless the folder it is contained in is beeing opened)
having less folders increases the speed on the device.

2) then i installed the camera patch, then the album patch to go with it
3) i then installed the keboard patch, you need this..
4) i did not install the fix buttons patch (This is what i think slows down the BA) forgive me if i am wrong, but i leave things as is.
5) i placed all the missing apps in programs, so i can use them just as wn2003
6) i installed all my programs
skyforce 1
spb pocket plus
quickverse bible
adobe reader
photo viewer
7) i then set up my internet connections for att
8) i turn on button lock
9) i turned off all sounds
then i reset...

thats all i did, now my ppc is fast, i am not even using pocket hack master, i didnt even install it (the truth is that i forgot, i didnt see the 10 sec pauses anymore, i power off the device for two hours, power on, no pauses.

a) phone perfect
b) camera perfect
c) backlights perfect
d) keyboard perfect
e) games run fast without a glitch

I dont know what happened, i cant explain it, maybe this is just by luck or by chance, but evrything works well and now for two days works better and faster than ever before.

try, maybe this works for you.

thanks to all the programmers that made this possible, i couldnt have gotten this far without you guys.


let me know what happened or what you think

:D Hey Mutty...I'm game...will give your method a try and report...you need to make a small edit... "then press the e (internet key), it will reset itself, this takes about 5 secs..." Pressing the e will not do anything, you have to actually press the envolope key.

I have a question do we have to move all the default folders (eg Personal, My Music..etc) in My Documents into one folder or just leave the default folders as is and create a new folder (eg my files) and add all future folders inside this one?

3) i then installed the keboard patch, you need this..


WHAT KEYBOARD PATCH?

[Bubisch]

Localized Keyboard cabs for different HW-Keyboard Layout...

Here on FTP... (ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/BlueAngel/Localized_Keyboards)

I think it's probably the "Enable KITL = No" option that makes the difference. KITL (Kernel Independent Transport Layer) is a diagnostic mode for developers to debug their drivers and apps, so it's very likely that leaving this enabled will slow things down.

-no1

[alphatrion]

is it as fast as WM2003se?

[MUTTY]

i dont know what Kitl is, but one thing i know is that the device worked bettr than before, no pauses, even till now.. I just have to get used to having "ok" and the "windows" key set as soft keys. its kinda good though, i use them as default, for notifications and contacts. pretty cool.

You leave all default folders as is, only create one folder to store all your other files and folders.

[MUTTY]

where do you find the option to disable KITL
maybe that will ven make my device runs even much faster.

And yes its faster than 2003se... dont take my word for it though..
Try it yourselves, you will see.. even the phone works better.
1) no ten secs pauses on wakup
2) phone works better and responds better
3) I played skyforce without a glitch many times and it is a graphics driven fast pace game.

[MUTTY]

i have a keyboard patch, i dont remember where i get it from, but i think its used to turn on the backlight on the keyboard, i am not sure, but guess i just installed it

[helmi_c]

Guys just wanna ask did anyone has problem when recieving sms, backlight didn't on? just vibrate and ring (i set to vibrate and ring) but no light? anyone has the same experience?

[flippy]

It is suposed to be that way :D

[helmi_c]

oops!... :oops: :oops: :lol:

[no1]

where do you find the option to disable KITL

The KITL option is the first of the three options in the boot menu list - the one you said you set to "No".

[mrcopyright]

well im giving yr method a go too, do you have the wifi problem?

[MUTTY]

nope, no wifi issue

[Mastiff]

Holy sh!"&%§! :shock: Do you mean that if WiFi's on when you turn off the unit (not soft reset, just suspend with the power button) WiFi will still be active when you turn the unit back on again?

[MUTTY]

wifi caused me a lot of problems. I had it on, and left it on accidentally. it went into sleep or suspend mode of course, but i thought wifi would go off as usual so i didnt check it. Ohh damn, it drained my battery dead. The worst part is that when the battery went dead, i couldnt make or recieve calls for a few minutes, then the whole thing just went dead. on reserve battery. i had to wait till i got home to recharge. half a day of my life was wasted. i depend on my phone very much.

[Mastiff]

OK, but have you tested if wifi will still be on if you turn suspend with wifi on and then powers on the PPC again? That's what I'm looking for.

[MUTTY]

holy moly, it only works some times. wifi keeps on only sometimes whaen my devise is suspended. say about 40% of the time. I DONT LIKE THIS....

[Mastiff]

That's 40 % more than most people get. It's the main problem right now, that BlueTooth and WiFi is turned off when the unit is suspended.

[MUTTY]

my bluetooth is great, good sound quality, good everything, i even lsiten music with my hbh-662. but it disconnects on some phone calls after a while, i dont know why, but this is not goo deither.

I wonder if the Univeral rom upgrade can work on the BA. anyone tried this. maybe this could work. then the bt and Wifi problems may be fixed.

[alphatrion]

MUTTY how slow was your WM5 before you did wat you did to make it fast?

[alex2cool67]

does nobody see the HUGE FLAW in this, LAST STEP turn of all sounds this is the major step that makes it work but WHAT GOOD IS A FONE IF IT MAKES NO SOUDN WHEN IT RINGS OMFG THIS IS SO ANNOYING

[TheM@x]

I think it's the Bible App, that made it faster :wink:

[sopedro]

MUTTY how slow was your WM5 before you did wat you did to make it fast?

I've a BA with WM5 and works like a charm. Works fast even w/all sounds enabled.
In my oppinion it's better than 2003SE.

:D :D :idea:
