PS: This ROM is made of my Greek ROM by removing all greek support (mui files included). The strangest thing is that the Greek ROM has 19.27ΜΒ available storage after cold boot. That's exactly 2MB more free space than the english ROM!!! How is it possible to have less free space after removing some files?

That's why a second release took place. I wanted to see the available space with more apps installed. And yes, there is more free storage space.

Very strange indeed! Are you sure you haven't touched anything else between the two roms?

I might give it a go.

 

[NiTroGenious]

Just removed all *_Lang_0408 and *_Lang_0408_DPI_131 directories from the SYS folder (see Package Tool) and changed a couple of registry entries in some .rgu to the english language settings (0408 -> 0409).

Nothing else touched!!!!

 

[Lost Heaven]

That really doesn't explain the size increase, much less 2MB! Well, hopefully someone with more knowledge than me will crack that one up.

Installed your rom, seems nice, will need more testing to give a better opinion though. Thanks for releasing!

 

[DSF]

you are fast NitroGenious .. congrats on the release. I don't have right now time to test.

i've experienced too this a while back. I've deleted a lot of files (I mean A LOT, about 10MB), that would logically bring more space, but in reality did not, it just reduced the amount of free storage space..
So you should fill the 2MB space with usefull apps, this theoretically will bring the 19MB free space back.
It's about the ROM partitioning (the ROM flash is shared between the OS files & Storage).. andot's should know more about this.
Usefull apps? HTC Streaming Media (andot's V6 has it, you can dump ROM and get the needed files & registry) , Easter Uninstaller (handy,as you probably knows, WM has a bug not showing the installed applications if the nr of them reach 50), IA File Manager, Tornado Low Light, and maybe Microsfot Voice Commander (don't know how much takes this application). or if the MS Voice Commander takes too much space, include wmv codecs (this will allow applications, such as TCPMP, to be able playing wmv). That's what I'm remembering right now.

Have you replaced the browsing files? If you copy the files as modules, you should run G'Reloc (if you allready didn't )

BTW have you included the "Bluetooth Dial-up Networking" tweak ?

Also you could include also (but leave the default WM6 calculator cos it has some usefull functions, such as %, etc) the good old WM5 calculator, it loads way faster in memory, you only need calc.exe from a WM5 dump. Tell me if you need it :d.

 

[nofuse]

Is anybody having problems with voip with this rom, always telling me that the service is blocked, never had this problem with any other WM6 rom i've tried.

Any ideas?

 

[Pop5k]

Nice, Nitro! One more rom to choose from.


"SDHC card support"

Mind telling us how you did that?
Which drivers did you use?
Any registry tweaks needed for it?

 

[GoSubV]

Nice, Nitro! One more rom to choose from.
"SDHC card support"

- SDHC card support (not tested)
Tested and does not work

In original
- SDHC card support (In doubt)

 

[kluver]

somebody can test else for SDHC card support?

bad Rom!
many empty icons in programs,
batterystatus says""battrystatus is not install correctly!, please reinstall"

In my experience, the empty icons in your programs list are due the small size of the new rom. In other words, they are leftover icons from your last rom.
Means you probably omitted the "format binfs" step.

Someone please smack me if I am giving wrong info.

I need to find my sda so I can try this one out, been addicted to the wizard lately.

Love seeing more people coming out with their own custom roms, keep up the good work!

 

[briviere]

Thanks a lot for this WM6 release.
My SPV C600 is now correctly upgraded and GPRS is OK with this automatique cab config:

Thanks

do a hard reset

 

[melgurth]

Nice!
At last rom with MMS and SMS splitted into accounts.

Please consider making a vanilla - something a'la OEM without any third party programs

Great work

 

[NiTroGenious]

More removed apps = less space available! Don't know why, but it's a fact (check previous page). So, we need the third party apps to have more available storage!

But, if you want a vanilla, I'll give you one...

 

[Lemark]

Hmm, I hoped andot would re-cook this ROM and wrote to him in a Chinese forum. But he said he had no interest in it.

 

[Fahtrim]

I flashed this rom last night, I like it very much so far. Good job. Haven't noticed any problems yet, nice suite of apps built in.

 

[NiTroGenious]

Update!

This is a small update. It just has more applications installed. I've not tried it - if someone does, please report free memory/storage on cold boot.

+ Auto Keylock 4.0
+ HTC File Manager 1.41
+ Low Light 1.02
+ MS Voice Commander 1.6

Nothing else is changed, nothing has been removed.

Please report free storage on cold boot. That's the main reason of this release; I want to see if the available free space is increased with more applications installed!

Please include internet sharing

I would be more than willing to test drive this ROM if Internet Sharing is also included (I didn't see it listed). It's one feature I use almost daily.

Thanks!

 

[NiTroGenious]

Internet sharing is already included. I didn't put it on the list, because I thought it was one of the standard WM6 features, just like IE and SMS!
