confirmed...rom on clubimate site is new

[deepak]

i did install the new rom..it does say a new name before installation and shows imate k-jam visual..on installation my device became extremely fast like a rocket in space without garvity :lol:
i have done all sorts of changes on my external rom before as mentioned in most of the forums and did get to remove the antivirus software from my previous version..but overall i still did never get the speed as my other pocket pc devices..thought it was the operating system..
Post new rom installation i checked for my extended rom to see that there was no skype or the anti virus software there anymore...means they have understood that these two were creating the problem...WOW...i am toooo happy now with the speed...yes i did hard reset it once more by adding the certifcate cab file so that i dont keep getting the sertificate notification and added commander as default installation...
MY K-JAM ROCKS NOW...OFCOURSE WITHOUT SKYPE

SORRY DEVELOPERS...I WAS CONFUSED...I WAS WRONG..THE NEW ROM IS JUST THE SAME ROM WITH CHANGES ON THE EXTENDED ROM BRINGING SKYPE AND ANTIVIRUS OUT IN ADD REMOVE PROGRAMMES...WHAT A DISASTER...WELL WAITING FOR THE NEW ROM RELEASING IN JAN WITH PUSH MAIL ,A2DP PROFILE AND A FIX ON PROBABLY EVERYTHING....FOR NOW JUMPING TO GET THE O2 ATOM ON THE 7TH OF DECEMBER

the rom is the same and it does not alter the extended rom.

Quick question, and a dead giveaway - did you delete Skype from your ROM before you installed this new firmware upgrade?

I really customized my Extended ROM, with a splash screen and different CABs, and when I flashed with this firmware upgrade, my Extended ROM remained UNTOUCHED.

Hey BTT how did you change your splash screen? Oh, and i love your new raffle I am in budy cross your fingers for me. Ill do it tomorrow I have to charge my paypall account.

i did change my extended rom as per your (BTT)directions...i even got a new picture of my company there..i did try both skype versions(1.1(non xscale version)and 1.2) in the extended rom with the config.txt changed...i did too many more things there as it was fun but nothing great happened with skype as it never worked but the first time....i finally just thought of trying the shipped rom from clubimate to get back all the way it was before so that i could redo everything...to my surprise after a complete flashing of the device there is no antivirus and the skype in the new extended rom anymore and also the speed is toooooooo god damn fast...believe me but its true...try again...i did chk the download a couple of days back when u wrote of it being the same and i think they have put another one just recently with these 2 files deleted....the shipped rom size now is 55mb...
i am too happy with this setup now as i just added your certify cab file too the extended rom and rebooted...its running at the best speed i have ever witnessed on a pocket pc...

What he meant was that unlike the magician and other previouse htc devices when you flash a new rom it doesnt change your extended rom so if you deleated any of the software from the extended rom it will still be gone. it wont reload the extended rom just the rom

[aadadams]

That is exactly what I meant.

[gerazzo]

At last, do you think that upgrading helps to speed up the device?

consider that i have deleted from extended rom the antivirus.

Thanks

[aadadams]

The very nature of assessing this is flawed due to the subjective component of the results. Having done this myself it is my opinion that this rom update is the equivalent of a hard reset. As the clubimate website indicates, the rom is a copy of the rom that shipped with the device.

[gerazzo]

...as I tought!

Thanks for the confirmation.

Bye

[chakra]

I did it and have had more problems since, dont do it....

[deepak]

if u say you had a problem by loading the clubimate rom means there is some change..though i am not a developer here like some of you guys on this forum but for sure there is a lot of change...also need clarification that if u say the new rom does not flush extended rom then how do i get the setup file back there(old extended rom had no setup file but the config.txt file)...i seriously have started feeling like doing this process again...but no i am way too happy now so i will stick with all my settings..

[chakra]

if you deleated your extended ro m or anything in it and didnt save it, then its gone forever... unless you find someone else who saved it and will give it to you. the settup file is on the ftp site here in the universal folder.

[deepak]

sorry chief...what I meant by saying what I said above is that I had deleted the setup file as I was using some other auto file with combinattion of modified config.txt.and yes it also had the skype file as default in it...and loads of other things like ring tones and alarms etc...(before making changes to the extended rom...I had backed up everythin on my computer so I am not bothered of the setup file
But after the rom upgrade what I saw is everything changed on the extended rom with the setup file back there...
just for my own sattisfaction now I am doing this all over again...
