Extract the VGA "skin.xml" and "skin" folder to your \windows dir, then start tcpmp.
- Bluetooth recieve (obex) bug fixed
- Rotate Dpad bug fixed
- IRDA fixed
- fixed rar/zip file associations
- SD Drivers rebuilt
- Tidied bluetooth drivers, removed unused DLL
- Tidied OEM Apps, removed unused DLL
- Removed unused certificates
- Added File dialog changer, enable it in Settings->System
- Added bluetooth setting page security tab

ROM changes for v2.3 :-
- Reorganised XIP. Crypt32.dll moved to IMGFS (saving 460kb RAM), wince.nls moved to XIP (losing 260kb RAM). Net gain 200kb of physical RAM and a nice speedup from wince.nls being loaded into XIP
- modified boot registry to load devicestacks more intelligently (saving RAM) and restricted some core drivers to remain in pagepool and link exclusively to device.exe (much faster and should save some power)
- Hardware Buttons tweaked, added voice record on press+hold record, wirelessmgr on light button and assigned proper icons to all buttons
- fix added for some situations where STK wouldn't work
- added sensible delay to up/down slider
- hidden encryption control panel, it's not supported so there's no point seeing it
- hidden error reporting control panel, not supported
- fixed LZX compression in the kitchen
- downsized today backdrop to save some ram (it's now 4 tiles instead of one big image)
- Added call recording option to phone, just select "record" during phone conversation
- Rebuilt bluetooth support using drivers from HTC Athena, registry settings overhauled, A2DP works much better now. It may jump when a headset is first connected. Just disconnect/reconnect to fix this.

ROM changes for v2.21 :-
- FingerKB updated with multi-language support and a different skin (again by giannis86). Skin graphics optimised to 8-bit BMP to save resources.
- FingerKBConfig now works, goto Settings->input->options and select input languages, configure smileys and all that good stuff.
- AE Buttons plus now supported due to a slightly different keyboard driver. Tested with backlight button launching 3 seperate apps depending on how many times the button is pressed.


ROM changes for v2.2 :-
- RealVGA added. 96, 128, 192dpi supported for all pre-installed apps
- note 3rd party apps may or may not support non-192 DPIs
- Look in settings->system for realvga option panel

- FingerKB (skin by giannis86) is fully integrated into the ROM. This took a bit of fiddling and hexediting, but it now works beautifully in all DPIs.
- All other SIP input methods removed (MS keyboard, block and letter recogniser). It saves 1.7mb of space.
- FingerKB makes "bing" noises on each keypress by default, just switch off "event" sounds in "sounds and notifications" panel to disable this.
- Note the finger keyboard config app is not included as it doesn't work on the fully integrated version.

- TCPMP is now bimbam69's version, which supports skinning and integrates better with the mini Windows Media core
- WMA9Pro audio is now supported, using the native windowsmedia DLL
- WMV9 is fully supported, using the native WM DLL
- no skin is used by default, to add a skin just drop skin.xml and associated images in \windows folder. For an example, see Osprey00's work here :-

- note that Bimbam69's tcpmp does not support AVRCP as yet. He knows this and would love to enable it, but needs help from the original author of AVRCP plugin. Let's hope they get it together.

- SRS Wow HD is now included also. Happy days.
- Look in settings->system control panel for wow HD options (wow HD disabled by default)

Despite all the hefty new features (realVGA is really big), the tightly-integrated new TCPMP and removal of old MS SIP input methods means this version is only 600kb bigger. How's that for optimisation?

This rom has no bootsplash screens, so you will see a black screen on boot, followed by a white screen.
Tap the white screen to begin using the device on 1st boot.

Drivers, XIP section, registry, pagepool and filesystem have all been optimised for speed and RAM.

Every single EXE, DLL, MUI, CPL and plugin has been made into a module - with the exception of .NET libs (can't be modular) and one or two specific DLLs/EXEs that will not execute in modular form. Again this saves memory on 64mb machines and speeds up access to executables on both 128 and 64.

@nndrzy
vidmes is no more, so is there another mass upload site that works for you?

@enigma79

I'm not sure I fully understand the problem, but I think you're saying there's a problem where backlight goes dark and can't be controlled by the slider on neuPower. Igf that happens, just hold the power buttoin for 2 seconds and backlight will switch on again. It's a problem I've encountered before with this backlight driver, but it generally only happens once per flash . When you have done the power button trick once, it shouldn't happen again.

Hi guys,

New version uploaded with a new wifi driver.

The kitchen I'm using is an old version based on platformrebuilder.
It's mostly just a batch script, which makes it quick to modify and update.

What's numbattery?
[edit] I've just found and installed numbattery, and it's working - 76% shown in title bar. Check to see if you have "show title bar clock" disabled in clock settings, otherwise the clock overrides the battery display. Also be sure to reboot after installing or uninstalling numbattery.

Also - yes this rom does not support mp3 ringtones - if anyone can find a small lightweight windowless mp3 player app, then i can fix that. The alternative is to cripple this sleek fast rom by installing many megabytes of windows media player, and I'm not prepared to do that. A large part of this rom's speed comes from the fact that the horrible windows media subsystem is replaced by smaller faster apps.

How about an mp3-to-wav converter built into the rom as a compromise? I'm certain I can find a suitable free app to do the job.
