prog memory slow drain

First of all thanks to Buzz for a splendid job on the wm5. Having 120mb for running progs has its advantages. But I'd like to post an observation. When normally running after a soft reset, my prog mem is set at 106mb. Then when running the normal progs of the day w/c uses up prog mem, closing the progs would restore it back to my initial 106mb. I've noticed that even w/out running progs, the prog mem gradually drops down. After a few hours it will be at 98-99mb w/out any running progs. I don't know if anybody has noticed this behaviour on their xda2. Perhaps some entlightenment Buzz?

Fyi. i'm running dktoday and spb pocket plus3. The mem monitor from spb tallies w/ those in /settings/memory.

I think the important here, in this thread, is if the ALPINE model accepts ROMs, configurations, etc. from a HIMALAYA device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] toenailed:
Re: HTC ALPINE

thats exactly my point .. :) .. it isnt .. example .. in DOC

first

Storage and Extended_ROm in Himalaya are both uses the TrueFFS.dll Driver .. while in Alpine, Storage uses the TrueFFS.dll and Extended_Rom uses vdisk.dll

second

in Himalaya, Extended_Rom and Storage is both Located in M-System DOC 32MB Chip

in Alpine, Extended_ROM is located in First 64MB Chip(ROM) while Storage is in 2nd 64MB Chip (M-system DOC)<-- intriguing .. :)

third

nk.nbf of Himalaya contains only ModelID, OperatorID, LanguageID, VersionID

while nk.nbf of Alpine contains ModelID, OperatorID, LanguageID, VersionID, DeviceName, Length, StartingOffset, EndingOffset <-- meaning the OS-ROM of Alpine is Configurable ..

Universal uses OS Rom is 64MB .. <-- another intriguing.. :)

PS .. please dont ask why it is intriguing .. :)

what is RAM Disc32?

@ BUZZ : THANX A LOT for the 1.60b version of the wm2005! Buzz, u r the best! i was sh*t scared trying to upgrade it, hearing enumorous problems with the wm2005, but luckily, in my system its come out mickey mouse! :)

******************************************

Hi all,

I have just finished installing the 1.60b version of wm2005 made by BUZZ! and its been a breeze installing it. i have upgraded from wm2003se.

Now, some confusion abt the memory...

the device info shows 128mb as system memory.

in the Memory setting, it shows Program Memory as 88mb,

and i have RAM Disc32 as 31.42MB

i would like to know is this RAM Disc32 the Program storage memory??? can i install programs on this disc?

when i tried installing a few softwares, it gave me choice of where i want to install...

1. Device (Available memory shown is only 7xxx KB)

2. RAM Disc32 (available memory 31.40MB)

3. Storage Card (my 256mb card)

how come the first option "DEVICE" shows only 7xxx KB space only???

So now do i install the softwares on the RAM Disc32 (in case i want to install it in the device itself, and not on my storage card)?

please help me out. thanx a lot in advance!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kintsay:
Re: what is RAM Disc32?

I believe what you are seeing is the available memory which is seen as Storage (alongside Program memory which is at 88MB). This "Storage" memory is being used and noted as Device when installing which would be shown as total 14MB when loaded with 1.60b

I've also read in this forum that you may be unable to use the RAMDisc for installation as the application will not be seen once installed here (pity that you can not use this memory).

Try using the DOC (disc on chip) merging solution developed by BUZZ which should expande your "storage" capacity to 30.04MB using the unused extended ROM allocation. This at least is quite acceptable.

Cheers.

Re: Error 120

OK answered my own question from amongst these most excellent forums. For anyone else following in our footsteps the "country id" error is explained at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/HimalayaRomFlashing (it took me a while to find hence my prior posting)

It arises as a result of a mismatch in the Operator ID (my imate was apparently set to "CDL", Buzz'z download is set to O2 by default).

While the O2 setting is clearly stated in Buzz's "10_Steps.txt" instructions, plus directions on how to change it to any desired ID, firstly I hadn't equated the two issues (Country ID error with Operator ID) and secondly I didn't know what my operator ID was to be able to change the O2 ref to the correct one. I did say I was a first timer at this!. I've found two routes to fix sort this out

a) use HimaUpgradeUt_NoID as per earlier advise in this forum

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=133126#133126

or

b) http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/HimalayaRomFlashing

The above link explains that using "HimaGetDeviceData.exe" (available via the link) will provide you with your current Op ID then it was plain sailing following the rest of Buzz's instructions.

Personnally I followed b) as I learnt more and I'm now up and running and very happy. Postman I believe followed a) (looks the neates and quickest route) and he similalry seems happy. The choice, as they say, is yours.

Many thanks Buzz, great update. Perhaps you could put a couple of lines in your "10 steps" to point other fresh-behind-the-ears folk like me in the right direction who hit the Country ID Error 120 issue too and need a greater pointer.

All the best - Mallow1

BUZZ, a question, im very confused...

You say ALL memory is now "program memory" ie, for running ram as in a PC... and that the storage is now in flash but,

"coming next...

repartition second flash chip, to get it whole fore storage memory and fixing other bugs... "

How much flash is used for perm storage and how much for other stuff?

IE, when you install to "device", how much space is there?

I guess its like 14meg ?

There are two flash storage's right? 32 for the Windows OS and 32 for "storage disk" and "extrom" (15 odd each)

Could you map out how youve used the memory please?

something like

32meg internal

Windows Media 2005 (32meg) as ROM

32meg DOC

16 meg storage for program installation

16 meg extrom for other use

128meg ram

Running program memory

Is this right?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] buzz_lightyear:
@pyrofer

EXACTLY !!!

YOU'VE GOT IT RIGHT

32meg DOC1

Windows Mobile 2005 as ROM

32meg DOC2

16 meg storage for program installation

16 meg extrom for other use

128meg RAM

Running program memory

the mission now is to have DOC2 in single 32mb partition.

dificult to relate to win2003 se

so in my win2003se i have 125.86 Ram and

from start its divided in 2 blocks 64MB

i know rom existed 32 megas

storage 14

and extend rom dont know how much

so wath you did is like put the slider all to the left and give all ram to programs ?

now you must find out where to put the storage and it will be in extrom and old storage total 32MB to install programs to

so our devices will be eventualy 128 MB ram and 32MB storage

well if that is the goal i can live with it sure i can lol

Well done Buzz, I've always been impresed with what you can make these things do.

I'm using 1.50h at the moment, but do we really need all this memory? I might not be seeing the significance here, but I'm finding it hard to use up all 56.34MB that I've got available now, I wouldn't know what to do with 128MB of ram!

Personally I'd love to see:

32MB persistant storage memory (mapped to root)

~64MB volatile storage memory - shows up as a different drive like storage & storage card do now.

I don't actually have my XDA 2 yet so that's why i'm so ignorant, but this 128mb.. it can be used for storage too? to store say, music?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gmerin:
I imagine you could, but the access from the internal memory would be much faster so you would rather store media files on an SD card and leave the internal memory for programs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Z-man:
originally in the XDA2,

128 RAM is used for evrything that is temporary like installled programs, data and all.

the other 64 is divided into 3 (32MB for XDA2 o/s and radio, 16MB for Ext. ROm and 16MB for storage folder ),

as with the regular pc. data stored on RAM gets lost when power is disconnected or in our case a hard reset or a drained battery. but not with the flash ROM... hence the name persistent storage.

so it pleases me that master buzz has unlocked the secrets of the 128mb RAM, since 100,000 read/write cycles can theoretically kill a flash rom(lifespan of flash devices).

what he's trying to do now is to merge the two 15MB's to have one big 32 MB storage.

now.... using the 128MB RAM is beneficial to us since it doesn't have the 100,000 R/W cycle limit of the flash disk.... (I had been flashing, removing and writing on my flash disk for quite sometime.... i 'd say i have 75,000 cycles more to go :)

so enjoy the newROM from buzz..... to infinity and beyond!!!!!!!!!!!!
