Very nice! What's new/fixed? :)

[getmad]

any major fixes like the wifi issue?
or just an updated WM6/pro

[xplode]

well i ran it successfully for the first time before hour and a half, this was my first core port, so the hard part is done, i am planning to test wifi driver as module, it should work better, i will share more info tomorrow

Great to hear this. When it is ready, could you possibly also release it as a Kitchen? I've gotten spoiled and enjoy tailoring the ROM exactly to my needs. Also, will you include the newer versions of mobile Office?

[xplode]

I will try to include the latest office version also i will update most of the oem software and services with the latest versions, but the rom space is a lil limited so i will do my best to create at least rom good as helmi's one

[loiz]

Yeah! :D This is very good news!! If you need a beta tester or any "help" you can count on me. I have a Trinity but the Blue Angel is my favorite!

[Anth]

Coming soon to your BA

Wow... thats great.
Its would be nice if u can set those HTC's applications (eg Camera Album, WMP skins etc, that u provided is your another thread) as default setting in this 7.0

If u needs beta tester, I'm in :)

[minhanh_tran]

Nice to hear from Xplode, yesterday I have finished my ROM. It works OK, so fast more than 0.4.2. Hope to test ur Rom as soon!:)

[loiz]

Hi, minhanh_tran your rom looks very great!! Do you have intentions to share it with us? If so, when will be the official release? :D Or this rom is for your tests only... or else... :)

Yes, at this time I'll try my best to have a bestROM for ours BA. I think my ROM base on Helmi_c R0 and have much apps. I want to test it today and I will release as soon as possible. Now, it's so fast, and everything work 100%! OK:D

[loiz]

Cool! I will be waiting for that bestROM! ;) I'm ansious to put it on my BA, and to compare it with the xplode's Rom. this is only good news! :D

[sunish]

Grat News xplode!!

can't wait much to try it out...

[dairyman]

[Duddits]

Thanks man, i will test it

[motisu]

Thank you, Xplode.

I assume that this has camera support built in and no MIDI support? Those are the 2 main issues that I have with Helmi's ROM. I don't need the camera support as I have a SX66, but I DO need the Midi support. That's why I use the Kitchen. So i can dump the useless( for me) stuff and replace it with stuff that I need.

Xplode, Big to you thanks for fine work! :)

[LGSilva]

I'll be doing some more test but so far I got this bug:

No matter what I can't sync with vista. I get a "error" and that's it.

Before the device was discovered as "BlueAngel" but now it's "MDA III" - probably some registry setting, not a bug.

I'll hardreset it and see what happens.

[anona]

Thank you Xplode
great Job !

[richard-lwd]

thnx for yor hard work. I notice a performance boost. Also nice that's a little bit of a vanilla-like rom.

[xplode]

Well there is no way to do a full rom because we have less romspace than other devices, the oem features basicly are the same as in helmis rom (with a lil exceptions)

[motisu]

I will post kitchen when most of the bugs are fixed

Don't want to pressure you but do you have any estimate when the kitchen will be available? I'd even volunteer to Beta it if you want....:) ;)

[viscocesco]

Great work xPlode! I'll upgrade my BA as soon possible! Thank you :)

[kingop]

Thanx I Will try it later..

[the_scotsman]

Nice job thanks!!

Seems to be working well! Only thing I would have preferred the new WM6 file explorer over the old one, its much better.

[sonblack]

Thank you so much for your great work.
However, I want to say you that it seems still to be Build 18521 (instead of 18533) for Windows Media Player (see About of WMP from your rom).
I hope you continues to finish it.
Once again, thanx

I have a problem with the calculator too. It opens but I cannot press any of the + - * or /.

i thanxs xplode!!! i fell in love with my xda 2s again because of you :D

[banky8358]

[Somtop]

I have a problem with the calculator too. It opens but I cannot press any of the + - * or /.

I have a problem too. Any key not work.

[im4u2nv]

woohooo just upgraded my phone to this release...everything looks fine..

it's the right time coz my BA, for some strange reason, freezed when windows start page...so i have to hard reset anyway, might as well upgrade...

thx xplode :)

[im4u2nv]

confirmed about the calculator issues...

the operation buttons don't work at all (+, -, etc)...the numbers do work though...

[minhanh_tran]

I have used ur ROM, it works so fast with orginal File explore, but i find a bug with calculator and About of Windows Media stills 10.3 build 18521!
Once again, thanks!:)

[gnatto]

Great work Xplode!!!
apart from the calculator problem, everything looks fine... and very quick!!!
Thank you!!!

[noone85]

What's the difference with helmi's rom?
Is it faster? Is it more stable?
Have the BT, wifi issues solved?
The problem that the phone doesn't wake up with a new sms?

Anyway, is this a bug-solved rom or just a core upgrade?

[SandStorm]

yes, i got the calculator bug too

[thanapunth]

I think you should to add Helmi_Bluetooth 1.7 and patch in your rom, 'cause ms bt is very bad.

[kumar00455]

Waiting to get hold of this ROM... Will download this today (and upgrade when the SPB PocketPlus 4.0 trial expires ;))

[egzthunder1]

@xplode,

Good to see that you took the leap of faith and decided to cook your own rom. I guess it was only a matter of time before you made a WM6 rom yourself.
Let me ask you though. Is there any chance in hell that the original TouchFLO and Cube Interface can be included in the rom? I read somewhere that the only way to have it in the rom is to build it into the rom.
I guess eFrost's and Slither's cube work great, but it is not as smooth as I guess it would be by being an original application instead of a flash app.
In either case, good job on this :)

[BORMOGLOT]

Where fonts and adjustments for RUSSIA were gone???

[xplode]

Yes the calculator has a bug as many of you guys pointed out, this is because of the skin ... i will fix it in the next release

There is no much space left for touch customization, i have to remove something in order to include other stuff

This rom was ported from wizard rom, as i said it will contain a lot of bugs thats why the WMp version is older it can be easily fixed with simple package replacement from hermes. when the kitchen is almost bugfree i will release it

i am working on another wizard port, namely the fake 5.2.2000

[Somtop]

Wait you. Thank.

[joseph.sapri]

Xplode,

do you have an approximate date when the next release will be?

with the calculator bug and wmp newer version, can we update those using a cab patch, or so we have to re-install new rom (since it is part of the rom)?

thanks... I will update mine, its just if you will release it within few days, then I would just wait, cause re-installing apps take a lot of time....

thanks a lot

[xplode]

well it will be easyer to cook it again then to release a patch, i can release patch for the calculator but not for media player

i have testing fixed rom and maybe tomorrow i will post the new one

[hardingt0110]

Does this ROM (or pdaviets) include the ramdisk??

thanks,

hardingt0110

[LGSilva]

WM6 don't use ramdisk anymore.

[xplode]

Fixed build posted on the fist page, it is the same as the previous one, but with fixed calculator and mediaplayer version bugs

xplode:the first thank you! and you can do for wriless modem ( modem Link) working OK? it's only run on 2003. w5_w6 it's not work

[bug-i]

is there a way to include support for wap-push messages? actually i (and i think the BA generally) cant receive wap-push-messages. somewhere i have read, that its just a matter of security settings?!?

[mr_ding]

Installed last night, works great. Much faster than previous AKU 0.4.2

Thanks again.

BTW, it will be great if (Helmi Touch Dialer 2G) is part of the Dual Touch addon by default.

[xplode]

I can make a cab for it

[garyjl]

Thanks for the wonderful work. I found the stk service can't change phone number for sim-max sim card. It works well in wm2003se though.

[aaraj]

Thanks xplode installed the (AKU_0.7_R0--fixed) working excellent much better than AKU 0.4.2 with some of the bugs fixed. I will test futher & will let you know how stable it is. Once again thank you very much for giving a new life for the BA.

Tested everyting works fine execpt for WMP jitters & the playback speed isnt consistent when played on the speakers but on BTA2DP Headset it plays fine. Did not adjust SDmemory_class, blockTransferSize registry to 64. The LCD light keeps turning on & off by itself even though backlight battery or external power settings have been adjusted. Changing Power setting doesnt have any effect too.This happens when phone lock password is activated. Battery life has improved about 31/2 hrs on continously used. This rom is version is very stable & is fast

[SystemR89]

Thanks so much for this great release!

I've only one problem, I installed BT Broadcom 1.7 Helmi but now I no more can turn bluetooth on. My BlueAngel show any time that I must do a normal reboot but also after reboot Bluetooth won't turn on..

Sorry for my bad english..

[xplode]

I am not sure but maybe there is something incompatible with this release, i will test and post the results

I think you cant use microsoft and broadcom bluetooth drivers together you have to uninstall microsoft first not sure how & then install broadcom. To get microsoft bluetooth working again have to hard reset

[mkern3]

xplode:the first thank you! and you can do for wriless modem ( modem Link) working OK? it's only run on 2003. w5_w6 it's not work

First of all, thanks to the community for the continuous development of our devices!

I would also very much appreciate a simple way to use BA as a modem.

very nice work but the ring and in a call sound is very low can any one help!!!!!

[sunish]

Nice ROM...
most of the functions are working fine...
had a general slowdown so defragged the sd card... now the speed is much better.
everything seems to work fine...
bluetooth.. GPSr and stereo headset.
WMP not tested.
Wifi... working fine..

file explorer... would prefer the one helmi provided in his rom. was better as compared to wm$ supplied one.

i'm using garmin que for navigation...
with this rom i'm getting some read access voilations...
also... there is a notification error... which is popping up randomly saying \storage card\garmin\garminque.exe can't be executed...
the problem is i'm not trying to launch it... its trying to launch itself on its own.. which has never happened with the earlier ROMs.

sometimes there is a slowdown launching any program... 4-5 clicks.. nothing happens.. and then suddenly it starts... but system seems to hang for that much time.

[adotan]

Great ROM Xplode
works very well and very fast
where can we get the file explorer as in Helmi_C ROM?

and again - TX

[danieltompson]

Need I download both rom´s to update or only the fixed rom ?

[kerio]

danieltompson
Do you prefer installing XP then formating the disk and installing "XP SP2" or just "XP SP2"?

It works with WM in the same way... (ITS OPERATING SYSTEM!)

Hi Kerio,

With all due respect, I think that this was a legitimate request. Not everyone here knows how to create CAB files and if he wants to ask for it, he may. Nobody HAS to fulfil his request but he can ask for it. This is,after all a help forum and lets face it, we have ALL had much worse requests than this.

[adotan]

Then dump it and make a cab file...
None of us is your technical support, personal programmer or even your mum and dad...

kerio, thank you for mention that you you are not my mum or my dad, they are relief
since I don't know how to dump program and make it into a cab file, I would appreciate it very much if you could give an extansive explanation so I could do it myself for the first time.
after all we all learned how to make the first step before start running

Aviad

[kerio]

No problem - use search button, you will be amazed:) -This was answered many times ago! Yes its the true...

(Your looking for tools to "DUMP ROM")
And then "How to make a CAB" or some program for making a CAB or MANAGING a CAB (for PPC) you know, just think about it.

Here you go. This utility was developed by dutty. I found this cab with Google search. I have not tested this cab and I am not responsible if anything goes wrong. Use it at your own risk.

[xykosomatik]

finally downloaded and tried xplode's rom. nice and fast, so far no problems encountered aside from the expected bugs. one thing i notice, the letters "ll" (2 L's) appear blurred. just curious, but its nothing really. thanks xplode, i really like your releases.

Here you go. This utility was developed by dutty. I found this cab with Google search. I have not tested this cab and I am not responsible if anything goes wrong. Use it at your own risk.

but this is not the same file explorer
could you give me a good exlanation how to dump the explorer from Helmi_C ROM and make it in to a .CAB file

Aviad

[kerio]

adotan
Is there a problem with your mouse - not clicking on search?
Do not expect anyone giving you click by click tutorial as I told you before use SEARCH - do it by your own, dont be the lazy boy waiting for sweets.

Its not easy, but worth a try:)
(And you may already find it as a .cab anyway...)

PS:
Here's the keyword you should discover in previus lecture>
"ROM editing tool"
(there are some tools with GUI, but you know google is waiting for you)

[adotan]

Keiro
thank you very much, you are a very kind person
not everyone has the same knowledge as you do
I did try to look for it but didn't find
you could of course ignore the request and say in your hart - what a stupid person
but you have decided to go a different way

In awating of new ROM.
You are the best!!!

[Xeon]

thanks xplode for ur work.. Im just curious... will the new rom FIX THE SMS ALERT PROBLEM ?? I hope so :)

[JPBRA]

Just to confirm: is MMS working on this ROM for you guys ? Mine isn't, even after installing cabs from Helmi's ROM.

(quite curious why using search with MMS or mms returns no results :( )

(quite curious why using search with MMS or mms returns no results :( )
The search function is acting weird I'd say ... it seems it doesn't like short search strings -- I've had similar problems.

[the_scotsman]

MMS is working fine on mine after installing the 2 cabs from Xplode...install the Arcsoft enable cab second.

[xplode]

you need to input the settings for mms for your operator in order to work

[April 1]

I notice few cosmetic issues which Xplode can take care in future versions:

1. MS Note is added to Accessories, its better if it gets added to Office folder
2. Home plug-in provided by Xplode xplode-HTCHome.v2_1_1005722_s0-all_device.cab is a 5 button plug-in whereas Helmi's home plug-in Helmi HomePlug_Comp.cab is better with 6 buttons
3. Comm Manager provided in the ROM doesn't integrate well asthetically and is inferior to the one provided by Helmi HTCCommManager.cab
4. WiFi connection problem has remained
5. Contacts multi selection problem has remained but can be solved by using other cab.
6. It may be better if the bottom tray is tweaked in the ROM itself to remove all icons, I had to do it manually.

[JPBRA]

I´ve created the MMS account with my operator settings under settings -> connections -> connections but when taking a picture it only shows me the option to send it through e-mail and going onto contacts and choosing menu -> Send MMS (mobile) does nothing.

Can you direct me to a thread that shows how to configure it or what else to try ?

Thanks in advance,

JP

PS: I´ve instaled mms_enable.cab and ArcSoftMMS.cab from Helmi's package.

[the_scotsman]

You also need to configure the MMS server in Messaging > Options > MMS > server tab.

[JPBRA]

Thanks, Scotsman.

I do not see an MMS tab under Messaging > Options nor a server tab.

I´ve only have a *text messages and Outlook e-mail accounts, plus the tabs: accounts, message, address and storage.

Any hint ?

JP

[the_scotsman]

That means MMS is not installed on your PDA...

Uninstall all your MMS cabs...then install the 2 cabs from cabs2.rar

Make sure you install the MMS Enable cab SECOND.

Also, do a soft-reset after installing.

[JPBRA]

Thanks, Scotsman, now i can see it !

I can't send MMS yet, but that is probably MMS settings learning curve.

Thanks for all your help. :)

6. It may be better if the bottom tray is tweaked in the ROM itself to remove all icons, I had to do it manually.

1. Look at Windows XP for example, notepad is in Accesories folder, not in Microsoft Office folder in start menu so i think this is correct
2.You are right about the home plugin , but it is 6 tabbed version you can enable the missing tab trough Start=>Settings=>Today=>HTC Home, also you can change the tabs order from there, i can make a cab with all the tabs enabled by default, but this is not an issue
3.The comm manager used in rom was used because of its size, the newer comm manager are larger, and the other comm manager is mine not helmis :) but this does not matter to me
4.If you learn a lil more about windows mobile you will find out that making WM6 to work on a device manifactured in 2004 is not such simple task, the drivers are not quite good for wm6 and wm5 also they do not fit fine with comm manager
5.This as you said is fixable and can be included in next rom, but i dont think that this is usable feature
6.You can made a cab that can perform this for you, i can not make personal roms, i make common ones that can be tweaked to fit anyone needs

[April 1]

Thanks for your reply xplode. Issues pointed were mainly minor cosmetic issues.

Sorry for wrongly stating Helmi HTCCommsManager, actually I wanted to say one which was released for Helmi's ROM :) Every one knows you gave us add ons to basic ROM.

One more problem I faced recently, that is "infinite boot time" after reset. It happenned when I added few more cabs to the system (NetPlug.cab, GSFinder.cab and tsynch.cab) though can not still pin point. I dont remeber how these cabs sneaked into my collection for WM6.

[April 1]

xplode,

Yes xplode-HTCHome.v2_1_1005722_s0-all_device.cab can be set to 6 tabs :), I switched over to it now. Back light button in Launcher is still not working and needs tweaks.

Which is the Customiser for it? I'm still using HHCv08b.cab.

[xplode]

hi there
you are right about brightness shortcut i will fix it in new cab

HHC 0.8b works just fine here, i havent tryed yet the 1.05 beta

[joseph.sapri]

Hi Xplode,

I have been waiting for your new romsince you said it few days ago, and I have been checking for it almost every hour :).

Any approximate date when you r posting the new rom?
is there any chance the bluetooth issue will be fixed?

Cheers, I really appreciate for what you are doing for the BA users around the world who are lucky enuf to know about this forum :)

[April 1]

I installed xplode-HTCHome.v2_1_1005722_s0-all_device.cab and noticed the following difference with old home cab:

1. It installs a tab in Todays screen which can be used to select / deselect and order Home tabs using a simple GUI.

2. Favorite People screen displays a symbol for the selected phone if there are more than one phone. This phone symbol is displayed on top of the associated picture of the person if there is any.

[hendrixus]

How's the BT?
I suppose the upgrade is like with Helmi C 's descibed here (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrad e4) ?

Oke done. Now I couldn't get into this debugger screen so I did the upgrade without NO, YES, YES Later I found out, by accidently pushing a button to get into the debugger screen. Strange enough on my QTEK 9090 this is another canbination of keys. So I changed the debugger options after I had upgraded. Could that give a problem?


Bug?
After upgradig I noticed I don't see a signal quality (signal strenght) in this bar in the wireless screen while I am connected.

[April 1]

Why do I continue to get "Roaming icon" triangle after upgrade to the ROM?

I never saw it before with WM2003SE. SIM card is same and location is same. Is there a problem with ROM basic settings for Cingular / AT&T?

[hendrixus]

I have noticed there are some wifi issues with this ROM

The signal strenght bar is not filled because the signal strenght is too weak while my router is in the same room, the livin. I check with another device and it is on full strenght. Not on the BA though. But it was with WM2003SE approx. the half bar and also on Helmi C's R0 ROM

Second. At times the wifi cannot be switched on via the Comm Manager.So this must be done on the "main"tab of the wireless Lan util.But sometimes I can't and have to use the Comm Manager.This problem also occurs with Helmi's R0 ROM

Third. The icon in the lower right corner the comm Manager icon shows not the Comm Manager which you click on it, but the the "main"tab of the wlan util.

Forth. When I reset I see the bootloader (3 colored) screen first

Not really big problems but it would be nice if they could be solved.

[hermand]

Just flashed mine and it seems okay so far. Flash went smoothly and it feels nice and fast.

[JPBRA]

As i told you, i think you need to install a cab "HTC_Blueangel_WM6_SUPP_NLS_(missing_regional_setti ngs).cab" from Helmi's ROM which has additional regional settings.

does the broadcomm bluetooth stack 1.7 works with this rom? is there any other way to get the personal access network to work in ba wm6?

[joseph.sapri]

Hi Xplode,

I hope you will include the new Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 3.5 in your new up and coming rom, cause apparently, it improves speed by at least 20% according to this thread:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347537

Any fix for Airplane Mode? Can't seem to turn it off once it's on so the only way to use the phone again is to soft reset the device.

[xplode]

I have not thinked about the .net CF 3.5 yet i will experiment on this

About flight mode i will say this, it takes the radio to turn on 5 min(!) working but god damn slow, i am still looking for proper solution fot this problem

I am working on rebasing all drivers which gains hell of a lot performance, also i have made module based package for camera which speeds up the camera app up to 50%

I can release alpha build of this rom but it is not ready and has some bugs, first stable by my opinion rom with rebased drivers and oem stuff will be released as kitchen so you can cook your own roms with your own customizations so everyone to make the rom of their liking.

[HDuser]

xplode

Just so that it has been said.

We thank you for your time, your effort and your willingness to allow us to use a device that by all defanition is end of life and thus dead.

Yes I know that many others were envloved in this project but at this moment in time you are the most active.

Thank you.

If i understood correctly from other post in the forum, this problem is probably the same as the Wifi and BT issue. Drivers incompatibilty with WM6.

What works for me to turn it on is go to phone -> menu -> options and they when it says "phone is off do you want to turn it on" say yes. No soft reset needed.

For me is the same logic as the workaround for wifi.

True, but we can do more than hope: We can DONATE to him!

After all, even if his BA never does die on him, a hacking dude needs to buy Diet Coke & pizza every once in a while ... and PayPal makes it easy to send even small amounts.

P.S. I have resolved the radio turn on and off issue, the wifi one is not the same , just the wifi driver is written to work this way with the old style checkbox WlanMgr.exe, so you have to turn it on and then control it

Thanks Xplode, I am downloading it now...

just a question. If I install most of the htc dual stuff into the rom main memory, would i get performance hit cause I install a lot of these htc dual apps?

logically the answer would be yes, and is it noticable? cause i dont like eye candy stuff with the trade off of losing performance.. basically they do the same thing..

please let me know.

thanks

[cr_972003]

C'mon guys (& gals)! I am guessing you haven't realised yet but xplode has uploaded a new ROM for us just today....nobody has installed it and have any feedback as yet?

P.S. I am looking to install it once I get home from work.

[MuratNL]

Downloaded in just 2 minutes :D
I'm charging the BA now... Lets see!! :cool:

Xplode: You're the MAN!

[EmZvr]

I with the new ROM. No bugs found till now. There is a little performance boost :) The turn off/on flight mode is the same like the last ROM you have to turn it on twice to work. But that's not a big problem.
Thanks Xplode.

Thanks Xplode.

Just curious, what version of radio ROM does your BA have? It seemed to me that I got better radio on/off response since upgrading my radio ROM from 1.12.00 to 1.15.00 (haven't had the problem since the upgrade).

[hermand]

Haven't downloaded the new one yet, but I've used the older one heavily since I put it in and it's been ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. Can't wait to get the new one on - seriously appreciate the work.

Helmis was brilliant, but this is sublime - for me, it's as stable as it was on WM2003. It does everything I want it to with not a hiccup.

One thing, though - I never bothered extending my memory before upgrading from 2003. Is it worthwhile going back and doing it? Do I get anything other than a few MB for device storage? Also, does having low storage space slow performance at all? I come from a desktop background, not PDAs, in case you couldn't tell!

No radio toggle trough comm manager has nothing to do with my previous rom, and here it works in single tap - tap flight mode and radio turns off, tap the phone/flight mode and radio turns on. Work like it should be. In my previous rom rilgsm.dll (the phone driver) was included as file this means that if its loaded into memory on startup it does not unloads, but when you switch to flight mode comm manager forces the driver to unload, it unloads fine, but when you try to load the driver again (turn on the phone) it takes time for the driver to load (5-10 min - hell of a lot). When the driver is added as module the driver has reserved space to memory, and WM can control its loadin and unloading very fast

[motisu]

Hi Xplode,

DLing the new ROM now. Could you please give us a bit more details about the new ROM?
1. Does it still have .NET V2 or the newer V3.5?
2. What exactly is achieved by "rebasing" the drivers?
3. What IS rebasing? :confused:
4. Any chance of integrating ftouchflo/ctl/cube into the ROM? I think that most of us here are using your htccube and if it could be integrated, that would be great.
5. How soon do you guesstimate a Kitchen will be released?

[cr_972003]

I have installed the latest ROM (version 6.00.00) and have the following observations;

Install worked fine :)
Everthing so far is working fine :)
Radio on/off is working fine :)
HTC Touch theme is missing :eek:

Thanks again for all the great work xplode!

[xplode]

i have excluded all customizations like welcome screen, comm manager, dialer, theme to save romspace. All of them can be added to your customized extrom

[motisu]

Have loaded the new ROM with all my EXTROM extras and apps. My first impression is that this ROM is Super FAST!! Much faster than your older one. Everything seems to be Running well including GPRS, BT headphone, GPS. I'll report back in the next day or two about stability. As usual, I'm looking forward to the kitchen version.:)

May I also suggest that because this is a new ROM, you should start a new thread for it?

[das_boot]

i have excluded all customizations like welcome screen, comm manager, dialer, theme to save romspace. All of them can be added to your customized extrom

You're right, default ROM must be clean. All of us has different most liked apps.

GOOD NEWS - New Rom!
BAD NEWS - I'm at work and I left my usb cable at home! :(

[seidler2547]

Yep, downloaded it this morning, had to flash right away :p Great ROM, much faster than helmi_c which I tried before.

Something I would like to see, though: I have O2 WAP Flat (Germany) and this ROM is missing the following reg key (was working with the helmi ROM):

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Internet Settings]
"UAProf"="http://config.uaprof/xda.xml"

Would be great if you could include it.

Apart from that, BT is working but with my Jabra BT250v still no luck (lots of static, crackling noises).

WLAN works with the known trick, but would often not connect the first time, have to switch it off and on again to make it connect. (Maybe it's because it is hidden network or WPA-PSK?)

Great to see ClearType switched on by default!

Something else: Why can I not change button no 7? It is always being reset to wmplayer when the device is rebooted.

And how can I make the WLAN stay on even after the device goes to standby mode? It is annoying if you make a VoIP call and the phone goes to standby and thus disables the WLAN.

Keep up the good work :cool: ! I'm going to donate soon...

I don't think it is this build causing that...I had the same with the previous version and I did read an explaination on why somewhere on the forums.

Was using previous version before upgrade, I was able to go into HTC Customizer and click (download appearance).

But with this version, I get:
This option requires an active data connection. Please ensure you have an active connection and press OK to continue.

Do you have an active data connection such as WiFi or GPRS? Even with the disabled icon in the comm manager my device still connected when WiFi was running otherwise it would connect GPRS for me.

Great work again Xplode ! Many thanks for this ROM - is really very fast, but it seems to me that in your previous release WMPlayer correctly play mp3 files (I'm not sure ;) ), now again has problem with correct speed. Can anybody confirm ?

[mr_ding]

Yes, when Wifi is enabled, I can browse web pages. I just cannot do HTC Customizer download. Maybe the HTC download page is down?

Hi,

This ROM runs fast...
But, I faced some issue with listening mp3 with the default Microsoft BT stack.
And if flashing to the Broadcom 1.7 stack, there will be no voices coming out when calling the phone.
The previous Helmi's WM6 R0 dont face this kind of problem when pair with Broadcom BT stack.

Anyone using Helmi's Broadcom BT stack here? Might to share how is the result?

Cyberon Voice Dialer (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=243884)don't work :(
When I pressing the button on my BT headset simply launches the phone app, and not the sddialer.exe. But it launches via Record button. In the registry the path pointing to \windows\sddialer.exe.
In the previous ROM versions all worked fine.
Thanks for any advice!

is there any chance that anyone here can create a cab that can uninstall the built-in .net cf 2.0? coz there is a new .net and it got a great speed performance compared to 2.0... but you need to uninstall.net 2.0 first, and there is no entry of that on the add n remove cpanel on my xda..

it would be highly appreciated..

oh and here is the link of the new .net

If it is part of the rom, the only soulution to uninstall would take out the .net from the rom and re-flash a new rom without it (an then you install the new .net OR include the new .net within the new rom you are installing). you will need a kitchen tool for that, and I dont think Xplode has released any kitchen for this version yet....

But I dont think this version has .net in it. Does it? cause I think I installed "shutdownme" which requires .net and it didnt work...
Xplode, can you let us know please?

well, there you go... so this means the only solution would be getting a new build rom and include the latest one then...

whoa, that sucks.. :( anyways, that means there will be a new rom that will have an updated .NET and with a fixed Bluetooth stack.. maybe, have the Mi_MediaSupportv2 fix too for the midi... :) just hoping...

for BT the answer is Yes,
for the .NET CF 3.5 I think xplode will do some experiments first before he implements into his builded ROM as he mentioned earlier.

.NET CF 3.5 may be good to have but I hv read it Windows Mobile 6 does not need it, its designed to work on 2.0. Are you aware of any new apps that require 3.5? It should not happen that we landup having both 2.0 as well 3.5 on our devices and loose space just to run few new apps. Like when CF2.0 was introduced, it was necessary to have 1.0 too if we were running 1.0 based apps as 2.0 does not include 1.0

apparently its not just that. the performance is 20% better (at least) with the new release, among others.... IMHO, if it affects performance in a good way, then its worthed to try heheh...

I was suddenly hit by a new (old) problem. My battery went down to 30% and poof, power reset :-( I know that this was a problem in some of the older WM5 ROMs but I never experienced it before. Has anybody else had this happen in Xplode's 6.00 ROM?

[Bigbest]

yes.....for me at 40%.....

my guess would be the battery, try change it and see

remember my problem before thta with battery drain, had to try 3 batteries before i found out it's the battery issue lol

in ur case it's different but probably battery you need to try and see

[DANDANA]

I had the problem in WM5, but was the battery.
Now, i must say the xplode rom is eating a little more battery then Helmi's one; at least thats my experience.

[KRZTF]

question:
i recently heard, that if you flash your device with your battery only at for example 50%, the device will "think", that this is the fully loaded battery and never charge more than that.... could not believe that, but the person, who told me insisted, that this was true..... or is it?
:rolleyes:

[Prille]

No not really, I've heard that as well so I tested last time, I flashed at 67% and after the flash it was on 72 or so (because it could charge a couple of minutes in the cradle while flashing)

So that doesn't really matter...

i think you are referring to my old thread, yes i did write that at some point but at the end of the thread you will fnd that after i tried 3 batterieswhich had the same problem i was sure but purchased a normal battery from the far east and it worked perfect thus the problem was 100% faulty battery, in my case 3 of them lol

Hi all,

after my Blue Angel was out of battery charge last evening, I charged it over the night. Now it does not accept my password for unlocking. And no, I didn´t forget my password.
After Hard/Soft Reset the clock shows 12:00. Don´t know what it shows before the reset. Any suggestions ? Thanks in advance.

I tried to use this ROM with Nokia N95 as external Bluetooth modem.
Even though the DUN setup seems to went fine, it doesn't work.
When I am trying to dial ANY number. it simply does not connect to DUN service on my N95.

The reason why I am doing that is simple. I have BA as navigator in the car and N95 is my regular phone and only one SIM card. Also, N95 works in 3G/HSPA networks, which supposed to provide faster Internet, if it would work with BA as external Bluetooth modem.

I haven't tried any other ROMs though.
However, does anyone know what could be a problem in this case?

[xplode]

well i am not sure if this whole thing is a good idea, because bluetooth will slowdown the 3G speed, so it is useless IMO

Hi Xplode,

I don't know how closely you are following Kona_mtbkr's thread about the cube, but I am having problems using his ftouchflo control program with the new cube cab that you built for him. It seems that you included a newer version of QD which doesn't work on my BA. Did you try using it on yours and if so, did the QD face work? I don't know if the problem is with this ROM or with the cube cab or with the cube itself. If you have any ideas, I'd love to hear them.

Hi all,

what's the differences between this rom and the "WM6 OS 5.2.2000 (Build 20000.1.0.0.PV.HAT)" ?

This rom was posted after the "WM6 OS 5.2.2000 (Build 20000.1.0.0.PV.HAT)" and have got a older core build.

Thank you, I'm a little bit confused about what rom flash to my pda.

Is any one successful in installing "Band Selection" feature for BA in WM6? I tried various solutions but all failed.

[stpark]

Well, the point was to use mobile phone as modem, actually sharing one SIM card between two devices.

However, BT transfer rate is 1 Mpbs without EDR. The effective speed is usually less than 50% rated speed, so if assume that it's 40% from 1 Mpbs, that would be 400 Kbps, which is anyway fatser than GPRS Class 10, which is 48 Kbps at most.

Anyway the point is that my BA is mounted in the car and I there is no need to access Internet from it when I am not in the car :)

As far as I know the build 20000.1.0.0.PV.HAT is a fake build, alias an older build where the version number is changed.

its fake

real version is 5.2.1437 aku 0,3 /// rom is crappy old

Great news for all those of us who have been having problems with the new version of QD. JasonStern over in Kona_mtbkr's Ftouchflocontrol thread posted a cracked version which doesn't check hardware type and it solved my problem:).

I had earlier reported that HTC Cube is working OK but it has a problem.

I had installed xplode's latest HTC Home with 6 buttons, but when I installed HTC cube, favorite people button disappeared on HTC Home. I tried to set it right but could not, so I uninstalled HTC Cube and the missing button reappeared.

RUU_BA_xplode_WWE_6.00.00 ROM works great on my XDAIIs.

I read all posts and realized that Xplode release new ROM again. What's the ROM you guys are using. number 1,2 or 3.
I am using 1st ROM(on the following list) , is it the lastest one????

RUU_BA_xplode_WWE_6.00.00.exe is the latest and the fastest, i advice you to use it, it is more reliable than the previous ones. I have not deleted the links to them because kind of history of development

Dear xPlode,

There is a large RAM in BA
can you cook RAMdisk version 32 or 64 MB ?
because I think it's useful to store ringtones (faster to retrieved than store in SD Card)
or teach me how to do that?

You can put the ringtones inside /Windows/Rings/ folder.

Every thing stored in RAM vanishes if the battery goes dead, so we are back to same old concept of WM 2003 SE if we save programs / utilities in RAM and to have backup, one would need to use ROM or Storage Card.

I try version 6 and my 9090 work fine. (i try to whrite ingles)

Analise:

batery in my 9090 no problem and don´t dry, work fine (100%)
speed (better version this)


problems:

if you unplug SD the 9090 don´t refresh the data (new data), you go to see the same data.
one exemple , i put my SD in my PC and copy one file (jpg) and put in my 9090 and i don´t see the new file, same files. but if i (reset) the 9090 the windows refresh the SD and now i see the new files. i don´t have this problems in W2003 se.

Good job, ;)
