WM6 for charmer ?! Finnaly?

[vlodeck]

http://bbs.pdafans.com/thread-314364-1-1.html

Look there. I'm not as much experienced as many of you are, therefore I'm asking you first. Is this really wm6 charmer rom?

[ap0ll0]

i don't know, i'm not speeking japanese :D

[nocturne.op.15]

well, seems to be...will try today, hope rom will not be japanese :-D

[vlodeck]

ok nocturne, hoping it will work :D if so, I'm definatelly gonna have some questions for you :)

[nocturne.op.15]

well, just flashed WM6 five minutes ago. something you have to know:
1) this ROM IS wm6 finally !!!

2) YES, this ROM is realy WORKING WM6, including radio rom, camera, bluetooth (maybe it's behaviour is a little bit strange, maybe it is problem of my poor old MA700 bluetooth, which i'm running on Vista - it has never run well even on xp :-))

3) does not looks to be as fast as some debranded roms with wm5, but seems to be extremly fast as it is in beta stage. fast as roms filled with tmobile junk, if i could compare

4) ActiveSync 4.5 and Viasta's WMDC seems to be working much faster

5) windows update included inside wm6 is looking to do something

6) standart feautures of WM seems to be working correctly...does not look to be somehow special in this way

7) system startup is REALLY FAST - nearly like old iPAQs are...well, not as fast, but it is twice faster than WM5

Finally - this ROM seems to be...hmmm...somehow...little bit...chinese :-(

Willl provide more info if my employer will not kill me - this is not a testing machine, but the only phone i have :-D home I'll survive few days with chinese OS....

[vlodeck]

nocturne, come on ICQ, waiting for you there:)

[madkoe]

so it's only in chinese :confused:

[vlodeck]

yes, I flashed this rom as well. It works in 100%. We're (me and nocturne) trying to figure out how to replace mui files now so to make it an WWE version.

[madkoe]

oh,really cool guys.
It will be possible to donwgrade to a WM5 after the upgrade?

[vlodeck]

of course.

[melvincz]

Well, I have flashed the ROM as well (2007-03-14_Charmer_WM6_OS_MSYH_Clean_Consam_xBeta) and I think it is very fast (seems to me being faster than all WM5 ROMs I have tried). Chinese is the only "problem", will test it more.
Guys, hope you will manage the translation. Good luck.

EDIT: The only thing not working is Contacts application. Does anyone has the same problem? The applications does not even start.

[nocturne.op.15]

no problems with contacts app - but is not mapped to common contact button, that's the only problem i see. calendar is not mapped to its button as well.

have look at smartdialing - it is excellent, finaly no problems using czech characters, no more tweaknig dll's necessary :-)

for the first look, a havedecided that this rom does not contain word, excell etc - my info was wrong. they are just grouped into "office mobile" icon...

some strange behavior still remains - i have lost icons for notes and two other (unknown) apps. their link from program targets some help file, of course chinese :-) running notes executable directly works well - it's strage. i have none application installed as i want to test stability of basic OS, not third party applications...

P.S.: still charmed by fast system bootup, reseting again and again just to se if next bootup will be as fast as previous :-D

[melvincz]

Well, I know that it's not mapped to the button. But the application is not running, seems that it's starting but stops immediately. Well, Contacts app is the most important one for me :) So I revert to WM5 again and wait for other ROM. By the way, which ROM are you using, because there were 4 ROMs to download?

[melvincz]

Guys when I look into \Windows folder there are many DLL files with .0804 extension. Doesn't that mean that the ROM is originally not Chinese? If I'm not wrong, those extensions are used for translated files (MUI). Other interesting thing is that there are many english file names, eg. in \windows\AppButtons.
What do you mean about that?

[vlodeck]

melvincz: you could be right. I'm not 100% sure though. Don't even try to delete those files, you're system will freeze at 1st or 2nd splashscreen.

I flashed the 2007-03-24 rom_plus_consam and the contact application works fine for me.

[honzik-czcz]

can you upload this rom to rapidshare or somewhere else. my download speed from china is terrible. thanks :-)

[vlodeck]

uploading... will be done in like an hour

[hailstorm]

Would that be including the English mui files by chance?

[vlodeck]

[hailstorm]

shame I can't read chinese :( back to waiting I guess

[madkoe]

pretty fast rom,but the chinese it's not so simple :rolleyes:
hope have wwe edition soon.
bye!

[trojan_xv]

[madkoe]

Are there English MUI files we can overwite, then a reg change to get it to be English?

The solution is to hard reset your ppc again, then the contacts application can work well.

What do you mean about that?
it is really a Chinese system, i have used it for a month.

[davidpan]

exactly!
You can change it.

[hailstorm]

Any update on an English version?

[vlodeck]

I've eventually found the way to translate the mui files but it's gonna take a while to do it.

[madkoe]

but extract them from another wm6 wwe rom and then replace them on ours ?

[vlodeck]

doing that wont work, nocturne tried...

[pjam]

I'm looking forward to having wm6 on my Charmer. Can you confirm that when the language is sorted it should be possible to flash this on top of my uk aku2 T-mob rom?

Also, can you confirm that the html email works?

Thanks.

[ValkyrieLenneth]

Oh i'm so exciting about WM6 WWE charmer, just used neo's WM6 today and i really must say i love it :D

[nocturne.op.15]

hey, means you have working WWE WM6 for charmer? something we want to hear :-)
if you do, could you make upload somewhere?

[vlodeck]

nocturne, i think you misread his post :) he's really excited about having WM6 rom for neo (htc prophet). I suppose smart1's rom or fantastic v1.0 xbow.

[nocturne.op.15]

well, i have tried Smart1 ROM - not working on my device. freezes on the second splashscreen..

regarding neo's - i was thinking that he means rom created by sb calling himself neo, not xda neo rom :-)

[vlodeck]

you could log in to icq sometime nocturne :) waiting all day for you, cannot catch you though ;]

[ValkyrieLenneth]

Have just looked at the xbeta's site and found so many rom of CHS, why no WWE -.- anybody have good news ?

[honzik-czcz]

I've eventually found the way to translate the mui files but it's gonna take a while to do it.
so, we should try to translate them.. just show us the way and each one of us can translate a part of system.
btw. what about bepe`s attempt?

[vlodeck]

ultimately i found the way to change the language, it's gonna take a while though and I'm not 100% sure it will fully make a WWE rom.

[ValkyrieLenneth]

We're so glad to hear that :D If you need anyhelp, just tell us, vlodeck :D

[mcs]

I have written with Consam who has made the CHS ROM WM6.
He says, we could flash our Charmer with 838 ROM and than replace the Charmer drivers in \windows.
Is this correct ?
Where can I get the 838 ROM and where are the drivers for Charmer ?

Consam says its easy and works fine.

well, i have problems with replacement in rom. imgfs tools does not looks to be working correctly - exactly, having heavy problems with viewimgfs.exe functionality...output like this:
Header type: D8906179, Addr: 00041FA8
Unknown header type, FS_DATA_TABLE??

majority of files are mentioned like this one, only few of them are dumped correctly.
three dumped files are bmp's, one gif image and the others aredsm and rgu files. no files directly from fs are dumped :-(

if sb could try to repace files on the living system, may be felpfull...unfortunately i cannot do it myself because of urgent need of fully available phone (work emergency status this week)

[mcs]

@nocturne.op.15

Which ROM do you flash to Charmer ?

McSteff

[nocturne.op.15]

well, this was just my mistake...going on now hand by hand with vlodeck :-)

i may promise we wil be ready to release working rom this week - be patient :-)

trying to solve some minor problems, traditionaly with camera (who the hell has designed that stupid charmer to be different than other devices??)

[vlodeck]

what nocturne wanted to say is that faria sux and xplore rox :)

eot :]

[tuecan]

i may promise we wil be ready to release working rom this week - be patient :-)
