Hi,
I have pulled your ROM apart before installing but this isn't Wm2003 ;)
Do you have more info? Did you get it from BrightPoint / Qtek?
Thanks

yes, I confirm - BT can not turn off, then if you press power button device will not off and keyboard will not work more.
So you confirm it is WM 6.1, right.
Regarding above statement, does it mean there is no keyboard possible at all, or only when trying to turn BT off?
Can you indicate your source, so that we can know more about the development and details about this ROM?
Thanks!

Thank You Very Much Sir Cotulla
As I recon, somebody's saying it is not possible. Well here it is.
The only limitation man can have is his brain's capacity to think.
Cotulla

about TCPMP - you need you new one, look here:

No, must be a local problem with TCPMP. Runs very well with video even on DIRECTDRAW (test shows 280%)
don't use direct draw - it's slow. you should set to "RawFrameBuffer" or "Intel XScale". Also if you want good speed set maximum CPU speed, "Very Fast (416+)".

My issues so far:
- BT is noT working properly (known issue)
- Active Sync 4.5 craetes the proper profile but does not sync any data.
(error 0x80070057)
Is it possible to change the bootscreen? Or should I use the default method?
I want my anti-theft bootscreen...
Cheers
zajac_skacze
11th March 2009, 01:41 PM
tweakradje can U explain how BT is working on your device??
Cotulla
11th March 2009, 03:30 PM
yes, synchronizing via Active Sync/WMDC not working.
Is it possible to change the bootscreen? Or should I use the default method?
no.
Cotulla
11th March 2009, 04:05 PM
Device Speed control panel applet:
Using this applet you can change CPU speed.
Notes:
Very Fast (416+ Mhz) the fastest cpu mode. you should use it during watching videos, playing in games etc. Of course you have bigger power drain.
Fast (416 Mhz) - default mode. this mode like default mode in old roms 1.1X, 2.0X TX.
Other modes more slow, but you save some power when you use it.
So if you need long battery life, set speed to 208 Mhz.
Autochange - if checked, cpu will change speed dynamically.
the maximum speed still defined by radiobutton (208, 312, 416, 416+)
Aggressive - not useful (mostly not working)

I successfully use SDHC cards on HTC Magician (I test 4 and 8 GB cards).

Cotulla,
I try to run my WLAN SDIO card (spectec 802.11b) but I doesn't run.
Do you know if I have a chance getting Wifi to work with your rom?
Or am I waisting my time/
Might be the driver I use. Can I see Wifi in the CommManager?
edit:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Hardware]
"Wifi"=dword:00000001
show Wifi instantly in the CommMgr.
I think I am missing some registry settings (like [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WZCSVC] ...)
Thanks
EDIT2: I already got it. The wm6 driver did not load. It uses sdbus.dll (export SDGetClientFunctions) and this rom has sdbusdriver.dll

However I am not sure about SDIO support in future roms.
BTW did you able to run WiFi?

Congrationlations. The best rom ever. After the install i configured my german xda and installed a german-tastatur-cab.

Do you have a fix for that problem? May be a registry setting or so?

Hi Philip,
Yep this ROM makes it into the fastest phone around. Who could have dreamed this!!
This ROM is blazing fast, power consumption is very good and it looks to be very stable (after a few days of use)
I installed everything I could find on it and everything works OK. There are a few quirks though.
Active Sync, Bluetooth and it needs a newer sdbus driver for sdhc.
But I am sure that will be fixed. That man is a MAGICIAN ;)
Have fun with it...I have.

I think you should repair it...
you can flash my rom without this button....but you CAN'T UNINSTALLL IT.
(You can use EnterBootLoader.exe program, but it's working only on old rom, my rom doesn't support it)
This is BigStorage ROM? Storage memory is 27 MB?
word "Big Storage" can't be applied to my rom, because it have not any storage at all.
Any idea if it's ok to install .NET version 3.5?
yes, it can be installed.

Hi all,
I'm trying to debug an issue with my DeviceUpdate (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=480476) application, and it seems that there are a few registry entries missing which may be causing issues.
The main one seems to be HKLM\Comm\BootCount.
This registry entry will increment by one on each boot and is used by multiple apps like SDConfig etc to run.
Are you able to look into this?

KIND THANKS COTULLA
Now on to business:
1st impressions
1. It is 5.2 build of 6,1 Windows mobile
2. The phone is lightning fast - on 315MHz it's like old ROM but battery life almost double (!!!!)
3. The boot is really fast so the BT problem is less annoying
4. The 6.1 theme are more cool than 2k3's ;-)
5. The ROM has LOTS of space without the storage - it's better this way IMO
6. Coutlla - thank YOU for so much speed:):):):):D
problems(wishlist)
a. The Bluetooth is 'broken' it works, but hangs on shut off -this would be great news if addressed later
b. there is no midlet (jar) manager onboard - i sure miss one - not necessarily a part of any ROM, but surely a part of an complete one
c. backup - can't do without IMHO? and a quick one too
d. big clock - we all depend on BIG clocks, aren't we?
e. browser - I would like to see mini-mo if I cant have Opera-mini in a jar?
f. cpu-graph is there anything ore cool than that?
g. drawing - taking notes is just not enough for me - i took 'ce paint v1.0.1' onboard
h. pdf viewer - which one is better - adobes 8MB monster or alternative?
i. quick starter - a good styleable today-screen plugin would be nice?
j. screenshot-er - how do You think we can add to Your credit without one?
questions
I. You did the boot code right?
II. Will You address multi booting regarding Linux?
great job done!
I congratulate again! The best step i found so far regarding magician - You deserve it's name ;-)

My PPC is also this
Cotulla
13th March 2009, 04:13 PM
The main one seems to be HKLM\Comm\BootCount.
This registry entry will increment by one on each boot and is used by multiple apps like SDConfig etc to run.
I have this value in registry and it's working...
so problem not with this value...
We make your chinese resources of this rom. We put packages available to you,can you help us to made a Chinese version of the ROM?
I will think about it.
My question: Are this is Beta 1 ROM Version or Final Version???
this is Final First Release Of My Rom.
Not beta, betas tested by betatester.
Probably I will release new ones, but I can't promise anything to you and you should not ask about release date - it will be released when it will be ready.
I have htc camera 3.00.22844 working after some hacking.
from which device?
3. The boot is really fast so the BT problem is less annoying
22 seconds on my device.
I found another little bug, ''speaker on'' does not work during call.
yes, this feature not supported.
Another thing is that i can not install cardexport, it requires for a newer version of hardware.
CardExport and WM5Storage programs not supported.
I wonder if there is some way to connnect my magician to my pc.
1)you can use card reader.
2)you can install Active Sync 4.5 or WDMC and copy files via it.
Be sure! Old Active Sync versions doesn't work!
However about camera, I planned to remove old HTC camera from future versions of rom. Instead will be available built in MS Camera. Magician camera is rather bad, so it won't be big lost.
about different today settings, clock etc - you can read about it in other places, because it's not rom-specific.

As ActiveSync doesn't work, I tried downloading xBackup and restore my contacts, but the problem is it says: Error opening contacts database...
Google Sync doesn't work, as that's built up on top of ActiveSync... So maybe I will try GooSync...
or some other ways in getting my contacts back...
Earlier tried to restore items backed up by Sprite Backup (their OS version upgrade mode)... no luck... that's returning error too.
But the rom is super fast, best ever rom, that's undoubted.

press and hold green button.
I will give you some info about my future thinks:
Probably future roms will use SD/MMC card as user store.
This have a lot of advantages, good speed, long life of flash, easy backups, etc.
But it have one main disadvantage - SD/MMC can not be removed from device, it become like fixed-internal flash.
(If you remove it by hands, device will hang and possible data lost)
Yes, also SDIO cards can't be used, because you can't move out SD/MMC card from slot.
Flash size and speed is the outdated part of Magician.

If you install Active Sync 4.5 you will able to copy files and use RAPI applications, like remote registry editor, remote control.
But synchronizing contacts, sms and other PIM with Outlook will fail. However Notes sync with Outlook without problems.

PIM Backup works... I should have posted my question here before assuming xBackup will work... anyway I lost my contacts on my phone now and am finding a way to either sync Google contacts or outlook contacts back.
If I am without luck I will either go for the GooSync Premium membership account, or restore my old rom back, restore contacts using xBackup, backup using PIMBackup, and then upgrade my rom again, and then restore using PIMBackup... =(
As I need some kind of sync before the ActiveSync issue fix anyway I would probably go for the GooSync.
(anyone with better idea would be very much appreciated)
I still have some questions
(1) The storage cannot be seen. I am fine without it as I have a good 4G SD (not HC), but for learning purpose I would be curious to know if it is used by the rom storing things or held unused sitting there.
(2) Radio 1.13 is not there. I had mine downgraded to 1.12 when I installed this new rom. Has anybody tried to reinstalled it back? If so, please kindly report compatibility.

3. I don't use outlook (i call it 'lookout!') so i don't miss the 'bonding' which might not work as i haven't tried it ever.

About Activesync: It does establish a connection, o.k. Speaking for myself i never use syncronisation with outlook contacts, PIMbackup is my friend. I only use Activesync to install apps through cabinstaller application, so if it does not sync, no roblem for me.
About Manilla: Please point to some link for the files to be used.

First thing is that ActiveSync works. Try uninstalling and reinstalling it, this often solves dead-ends.
If that one des not help, flash previous rom, use PIMBaackup (free) to backup contacts, save on sd, reflash this unbelievable rom and restore them.

Thank you!
It's really a good news to all of all the Magician(Dopod 818) users,especially our Chinese user.Why?It's a large number of Magician users in China.
Although my PPC is Prophet,but I still finding a way to update my friend's Magician to WM5 above.But it's known to all,I failed,also many person failed,either.
Dear Cotulla,if you have time,I,not only me,but all the Chinese Magician users want you to cook us a wm6.1 Rom of Magician that support Chinese language displayed.I know cook a Full Chinese wm6.1 rom may be a trouble to you,so I eager want to hear your rom can support Chinese language displayed in a few days!
By the way,thank you,and thank you again!
国人都来支持一下,让Cooker能尽快做出一个支持中文内核的wm6.1的Rom!
对于老外而言,要他帮我们做完全中文的Rom不现实,可以的话先用支持中文内核的,这样我们国内的人可以从 中受到一点启发,进而做出更好的Rom,对吗?

OK, to all Chinese in this forum, including me of course...
I am just writing this as I see lots and lots of messages asking for a Chinese rom.
Why would we want a rom so badly that is in our language? I mean you see a lot of people out there / in this forum whose mother tongue is not English but they have not really ask for their language of rom as badly as we did.
To me, as long as the data shown are in Chinese, I am fine with the rom. The interface language doesn't really hurt. Actually I myself prefer English interface to all systems that I use, as that provides best usage to other people accessing my computer.
For computer techies (and if you can flash a rom, you are a techie to somewhat degree, right?) I think the ability to use English at ease would be most beneficial, since computer language, keyboard and stuffs are mostly in English anyway (say C++). I see many countries, not to mention which, people are refraining themselves to use universal languages, and sunset to them no matter how good they were. If Chinese can ever become the universal language, I would definitely proud to that, however, at present stage I see no trouble in adapting others.
All in all, as a Chinese, I hope I see more development effort or comments to the rom instead of asking for a localization one. We all understand the rom has known issue as of now (like activesync) and as techies wouldn't we feel it's better for a relative bug free rom to release-then-translate better translate-then-release?
Kindly not to reply this message here as this is not this forum's topic. PM me if you have insight to me. I write this because I see the last 15 post were about requesting Chinese rom. I believe the author has known how badly we as a large group of magician users would need the rom, but if we can put our request to a little halt and allow the forum to do it's original purpose, certainly future readers would benefit.

Cotulla, this is *amazing* work! I can't believe I'm now using WM 6.1 and Manilla 2D on a phone that is 4 years old and yet it runs BETTER than on my TyTN II... Seriously.....
My device was an Australian Telstra branded i-mate JAM. I had trouble flashing the ROM at first due to only having Vista and Windows 7 on my notebook. I installed an XP image in VirtualBox with USB support to get things going.
However I couldn't flash with the package as is - for some reason I kept getting Error 114 which means it couldn't upgrade the Radio stack. All I did was to remove the radio_.nbf file from the folder so that the upgrade would patch the OS image only, and it seems to have worked fine (old radio version was 1.12).
Anyway, this is awesome and I'm really looking forward to future releases, keep up the good work.

would you do all the Alpine owners a favor ? develop a WM6.1 for Alpine.

Philip,I agree some of you said.
But it's known to all,Chinese is the largest used language in the world,while English is the most used language.
As far as I am concerned,Chinese people's English is not good to know the meanings,especially mainland Chinese people including me.
Between Chinese and English rom,I perfer the ahead one.Why?Because I think Chinese rom is more suitable for me to use,sometimes more beautiful than English rom.呵呵!
Of course,an English rom which can support Chinese displayed is great more fun!My phone is Dopod 818pro,which also called "Prophet",remember one time that I use Gullum's V6 rom!Good,very good!
其实一句概括,用英文Rom不错,只是相对国人而言,没那么方便。当然这与网络以及很多人用wm机只是玩不 是工作用也有一定关系~

i have to say, the ROM you cooked up is really fast and stable and it does feel like a new phone altogether. You brought life back to the magician and i'm sure a lot of people will appreciate that. Congratulations! job well done!

Cotulla,
You broke the news,
It's almost perfect (few and little thing left)
How can we help? Is there anything?
(BTW haret 5.2 'works', still have to try booting...)

I'm a little confused about the memory management in this ROM. In Settings, there is still a Storage vs. Program slider and it appears as though my RAM is split between Storage and Program memory. It was my impression that starting with WM5, all RAM is used for Program memory while the flash ROM is used for Storage. Is it correct that this ROM uses WM2003 memory management? Does this mean if my battery dies and the internal backup battery also dies, I will have to reinstall everything like I did with WM2003?

i think the answer is YES
because Cotulla have said:"I will give you some info about my future thinks:Probably future roms will use SD/MMC card as user store.This have a lot of advantages, good speed, long life of flash, easy backups, etc.
But it have one main disadvantage - SD/MMC can not be removed from device, it become like fixed-internal flash.
(If you remove it by hands, device will hang and possible data lost)Yes, also SDIO cards can't be used, because you can't move out SD/MMC card from slot.Flash size and speed is the outdated part of Magician.

So maybe Cotulla can cook two kinds of rom ,
one is can use SD card, the other is normal system like wm2003,
because some times, wi-fi card is important to use when you whan to get some information from internet, but you can not find some computers around with you.
I use the dopod 828, it have 128mb ram, so i am not to be afraid, people who use 818 can to upgrade to 128ram with maybe $40.
but i will afraid the future rom ...because the sd card maybe not stable , i had lose some data with no reason.

It's rather fascinating that Cotulla has managed to get WM2003 memory management working in WM6.1, I was under the impression this wasn't possible under WM5 and newer since everything I've read about WM5 and up says RAM is used like regular RAM and all storage is flash. Mine only has 64MB so I tend to run out of RAM a lot since half of it is used for storage. If it's possible, I wouldn't mind a very stripped down version of this ROM that uses only the remaining flash for storage and 100% of RAM for programs like the default mode of WM5 and up. There are some things that could be left out and installed from .cabs, like Office Mobile for example.
I did see a service that could upgrade the RAM to 128MB for $170. I think $40 sounds too low considering the RAM are BGA chips.

I am just wondering is Active Sync (Outlook schedule, emails) not working with host pc only, or with wireless Active Sync with a remote Exchange Server too?
Please kindly report if you have that done succeeded.
Regards,
Philip
Seems that I am the only one in this forum who is waiting for ActiveSync with outlook / exchange server...
or that it doesn't work even to sink with server... any comments welcome...

Cotulla, congratulations on your ROM, it's both an amazing achievement and a great lightning fast ROM.
There are only a couple of things not working that shouldn't stop anyone from using it (unability to disable bluetooth and synchronizing with outlook). To solve the second I used PPCPimBackup.
I have also installed a bunch of programs including Manila 2D, Iolite dialer, S2U2, etc... All are working great, very fast (oh heck, it's faster than my kaiser!), except Tomtom v7.910.9185; maybe it's got something to do with the bluetooth issue?
About the dialer, the speaker button doesn't work, but if i long-press the green button the speaker will be active.
One thing i would like to know, is it possible to uninstall or disable the task manager you have included? 'Cause i'd like to try the htc task manager.
Anyway, you did a great work, i really apreciate your efforts.

However I couldn't flash with the package as is - for some reason I kept getting Error 114 which means it couldn't upgrade the Radio stack. All I did was to remove the radio_.nbf file from the folder so that the upgrade would patch the OS image only, and it seems to have worked fine (old radio version was 1.12).
Thanks! That was driving my crazy!
I'm flashing it right now.
Edit: It did flash this time but it wouldn't boot. Probably cause my radio version is 1.13.
I'm going to try going back to 1.12 and see if that works.

No, I will release only WWE, RUS and CHS roms. Primary - WWE.
www.cotulla.pp.ru/Magician.html rapidshare link for ROM ?
you don't need link to rapidshare - you can download rom directly from my site without problems.
I fixed today some errors, now synchronizing via Active Sync works. Don't know about Exchange server, but should work also.
New roms will have it fixed.
I'm going to try going back to 1.12 and see if that works.
Only radio 1.12 supported. The main idea is: one version - the same bugs on all devices.
BTW can anybody test back up battery?

Hi, backup battery is working fine on my S110. Just removed the main battery and put it back on, everything's fine.
Cotulla, is there any chance to disable the task manager that's built in your rom?
Cotulla
17th March 2009, 02:05 AM
my rom have not custom task manager...

17th March 2009, 02:09 AM
I meant when we go to settings -> system -> task manager.
I think this app is not letting me install htc task manager, do you have any thoughts on that?
Cotulla
17th March 2009, 02:22 AM
this is standard app.
for htc task manager you need additional certificates

OMG You are really amazing. I tried to find the problem with AS. Was it security?
BT fixed, AS fixed. And sdhc? Did you get a good driver already?
What about the backup battery? ! removed the main batt 1 minute. Everything came up fine. Just like a soft reset. No problem here.
Do you know where I can get the VisualOn DirectShow filters for WMP?
Cheers

Thank you very much for spending so much time and effort in this ROM.

paper weigth).

# SPB Backup 2.0.0 (3065) - All working
# Throttle Launcher 0.9.7 - beware of the Pipboy Skin Today

Well done

Hi tweakradje,
Your "AS fixed" doesn't mean that's really fixed isn't it?
Kindly enlighten.
I have been longed for this Active Sync fix, as I use Exchange Server and am now risking to lose my calendar and contacts if I lose the phone.

I have removed Main Battery at least 30 minutes,as I need to repair the earphone inside,when everything have done,it works well without HARD RESET,the only thing is when I turn it on,it alarms me that "Backup Battery is low,please recharge",and the alarm never show again after I get phone recharged.
Nothing lose during this process,I don't know if I removed Main Battery more long time......poor english

No, I haven't been in China... Yes, in Indonesia HTC Prophet called same, Dopod 818pro (I want to buy this, but my money is insufficient :D)
Yes, they are friendly to Chinese... Today is not, many people is respect today with Chinese... You safe to visit Indonesia... If you take visit in Jakarta, you can see Glodok, it's like China-town... :)
Not only Chinese get's killed in 1998 Riots, some Indonesian people is killed too, because they want to coup d'etat (sorry, I translate from Google Translator) president of indonesia at that year...
I hope so...If I get enough money before my summer vacation,I will take a visit to Indonesia,Malaysia and Singapore.:D
But now,China and Indonesia are quarrelling about the South China Sea,in fact,no one wants war,everyone wants peaceful,especially in developing country as Indonesia and China.

哥们的英文不错!
I am amazing to hear that your data haven't lost after you removed your battery 30 mins later.
It seems that 818 will be more useful!:D
