WM6 English 5.2.1616.18120 Standard v3.7 (FINAL!) 01/11/08

Hello all,

VERSION 1 was my first ENGLISH ROM cook and it seemed to be pretty stable, based on Nitrogenious v5 Greek edition (Nitrogenious--THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HARD WORK!!).


****NOTE**** BEFORE FLASHING ANY OF THE BELOW VERSIONS, IT IS RECOMMENDED TO PERFORM A "format BINFS" TO ELIMINATE ANY PRE-EXISTING ROM FILES AND AVOID ANY UNUSUAL BEHAVIOR/CONFLICTS (FOR FURTHER RATIONALE GO TO PAGE 53 AND POST #529 here), FOLLOW KARHOE'S GREAT GUIDE:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...08#post1453008


****VERSION 3.7 INCLUDES ALL OF THE FIXES UP TO DATE...ADDITIONALLY THERE ARE 7 SHORTCUTS IN THE ACCESSORIES FOLDER (BLUETOOTH TOGGLE, BLUETOOTH DISCOVERY, PHONE TOGGLE, REBOOT, POWER OFF, WIRELESS MANAGER AND MUTE) USING THE SYSTEM'S OWN ICONS. VERSION 3.7 IS IDENTICAL TO v3.5 EXCEPT THE RE-ORGANIZATION OF THE SETTINGS/CONTROL PANEL AND THESE 7 SHORTCUTS ADDED IN THE ACCESSORIES FOLDER. THIS IS MY FINAL VERSION (HOPEFULLY ) UNLESS THERE ARE NOTICEABLE ERRORS!!!

THIS VERSION IS VIRTUALLY A PREVIEW OF NITROGENIOUS'S UPCOMING ROM RELEASE , HOWEVER THIS IS A BASIC/LITE VERSION). NITROGENIOUS'S ROM WILL HAVE MORE ADDED FEATURES, SOFTWARE, TWEAKS, AND ANIMATION!!!

[admin22]

may i ask what do u mean by no GSM?

can i still make calls from my dopod 577w?

[ericjm]

congrats on your ROM mate!

glad to see all these hardwork.

[vjgrace]

Thanks ericjm!!

@admin22,
No GSM means no radio, you are just able to pick the radio you want. This is just the OS. If you already have radio on your system, you should still be able to make calls if you were able to before. If you want the latest radio version just search for the radio version 4.1.13.28_02.61.01 and you will find one. I will try to upload one to Rapidshare for you.

Here is Rapidshare link for this radio:

Thanks

WOW!!! Nice work, vjgrace. You really did it! Almost 20MB free internal storage; a new record!!!

Welcome to the ROM cooking game, pal!

Btw, "Phonebook Speed Dial key mappings changed to match t9" refers to the Greek character key mapping (in original Greek ROM the character key mapping in Speed Dial was different than the one in SMS editing!!!), so you don't need to describe it as a feature. Because of that "feature", there is no Cyrillic character support in Speed Dial, unless you install the package I provide here.

@admin(!!!)22:
You can also upgrade the GSM together with the bootloader, using the SPL link in my signature.

So what's your review on this, Nitro?

Will I like it better than EA's chinese/english?

[NiTroGenious]

As I have already said, there is no good, better or best ROM. There is only the one that satisfies you and your needs. EA's has many new settings, but lacks of application quantity. This one has many useful applications and more free space. It's your call...

My english ROM was just a very rush release to satisfy all you non-greek Tornado owners. EA's ROM was a great update. But this ROM is just what I really wanted to release!

Keep up the good work, vjgrace! If you need any help/advice for future releases, don't hesitate to ask.

EDIT: I've just noticed that the available memory/storage values are written vice versa.

[vjgrace]

Hello all,

Refer to post #1, I have v2 still listed in post #1 if you still want it, but I have finished a final version, which is listed in post #1. I have deleted the link and text to the version in this post to decrease confusion, thanks!!!

[NiTroGenious]

Well, OK, but... What's the point of loosing all these apps and games for a 0.01kb gain? I don't think you should release a new version, unless you replace all those kBytes with something more usefull.

I quite liked your ROM. EA's worked better for me (after tweaking the audiogain), probably because of the fewer applications.

I'm not entirely sure which of your included apps was causing me the trouble, but if I could have resolved that, I'd likely not have bothered trying yet another.

I guess that for me, less is more.
