Re: Updates to the ROM

Yeah ... I'd like a concensus on the SmartDial "issue".

If it should be integrated, then I'll keep it in the ROM, otherwise if there are more useful things, I'll make it an extra CAB file, and fill up the space with things which are more 'useful' to the general userbase instead.

If I do remove Smart Dial, I will ensure that there are no residual elements hanging around (resources, mui, dll's, services, etc.) which could affect the performance. I don't believe there are too many, but it can't hurt to be extra careful.

There is a lot of space which this would free up which could be used for other elements or applications. After all using up the ROM space costs 'nothing' in storage space afterwards. And as long as the added applications are either 'run when needed' or 'disable through /windows/startup', I have no problems adding them in, as each end-user can then choose to easily disable them.

If this method (/windows/startup) is going to be a 'standard method' for us, then maybe a little 'startup manager' application (like on windows) would be a very useful addition to the v1.4 ROM. Anyone know of such an application, or wish to write one? 8)

Re: Note M Directory

It seems like some applications will ALWAYS use the first (device available) storage location instead of permitting storage to any attached device. Other than possibly changing a registry entry to force the location, I'm not sure of an easy way to get around this.

I could make versions of the ROM which have Extrom hidden, not available, or visible as currently. If this is something which end-users would consider useful let me know.

I dont see why smart dialling shouldnt be left in. It can always be disabled if you dont want it. Also making it an optional cab on hard reset works as well. But I think too many things in startup becomes cumbersome to manage, rather just configure when rom is first loaded and if needed load cabs from extended rom.

OH CRAP. How do I get past Hard Reset without the mail butn?

That's right folks, I go all the way to item 8

only to read this....

What?!? NOOOOOO! My mail button is broken!!!

It was water damaged a few weeks back - I had the phone in a bag and my wife put my son's bottle in there too.. just a few drops of water fell on those buttons. Within a day, windows, mail and ok buttons no longer worked. Explorer still works.

What on earth do I do now?

The boot options after the hard reset are:

Enable KITL (no)

Clean Registry Hive (yes)

Format Storage (yes)

How important are those steps? If I just remove the battery and let it drain, will the device work?

Re: OH CRAP. How do I get past Hard Reset without the mail b

Not quite what I was asking...

Anyway On the "I broke my mail button and can't get past the WM 2005 boot screen" issue... I took a chance, pulled out the battery and put it back in. It went straight in to WM2005! PHEW :)

Enable KITL -> NO

Uh oh...You know, the reason you're supposed to select the regsitry hive and format storage is so that the new ROM can run perfectly. You've skipped them this way. Right now it means that you're using a TuMa 1.3, but telling it to do the commands from its old ROM. Just imagine taking a machine designed for Windows 98, then booting it with Windows XP. Basically by doing that, this is what you have done.

Farewell to the WM5

Dear Community,

After some days of stuggle I decided to go back to WM2003SE

I loved ROM 1.3 when worked, but in the last four days I had to flash the device three times.

When I placed the unit to the GPS cradle it went to boot, but got stuck on the four colored screen with the version numbers. Soft reset started the cycle, but got only this fare again, hard reset got stuck at the white screen. The only way out was to put the BA to Bootloader mode and flash again.

I had problems with that cradle under 2003 too. happened, that the device hard reseted itself on insert, but at least was operational right away as a plain phone. I asked many people, what can reset the PDA on insert, but got no good answer. In the same Brodit cradle (of course after changing the holder piece, butretaining connector, cabling, charger and GPS) my older Hymalaya unit with WM5 works flawlessly.

I feel very sorry to leave thisexcellent community, and I also loved the ROM and WM5, but I can't devote so much time to restoring my work environment.

If anybody can explain what happened to me and how can I avoid this next time I will be happy to return to WM5.

Re: Help! Can't get SetOperator to work

I should have made two SetOperator.bat files - since we have TWO different devices. You've got a PH20B1, and SetOperator assumes a PH20B.

Open up SetOperator.bat - change the PH20B in there to a PH20B1, and run it again. You'll find all your flashing problems will disappear!

Next ROM v1.4 I'll add a SetOperatorB1.bat for all SX66 (and similar) users.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Tuatara:
Re: Battery Drain

This is probably due to the changes I made to the wave device - to solve the 3 ring delay problem on the Blue Angel. By keeping the sound device active and available, the battery gets drained a bit quicker (shouldn't be THAT fast), but it will use more power.

I've been experimenting more with the power management possibilities and I think I can reduce the power drain (almost) back to the minimum and still have the phone ring quickly - without adding more than about a 1/6 to 1/4 second delay time while the wave device comes out of sleep mode. This is probably acceptable, since it'll still ring within the first (at latest by the second) ring the caller hears.

You may also want to check your battery. A weak battery (especially with an overclocked device) will cause a LOT of problems. We're making a lot more use of the RAM for speed improvements (caching, temp files, volatile data, etc.) so if there is any data loss in the RAM, or data errors due to extreme overclocking, you are going to run into a LOT of problems.

I'm going to have to replace my backup battery in both my Himalaya and my Blue Angel - both are nearly dead, and can barely hold the RAM now for 10 minutes with the battery removed. I think that doing this will also help the reliability of my devices.

Re: !!

One of the advantages of putting applications into ROM is that it costs you nothing in your storage space. It's using the ROM space, and if you don't want it - delete it, and it is effectively 'gone'. The Zip application is quite small, and adding Pocket RAR may be a good idea as well (depending on space in v1.4).

As always, you could edit the ROM and add/remove your own applications and update the registry hives appropriately. Doing so will let you customize the ROM to your liking, and you can leave out or add in whatever you like. All the tools are available on the forum ... with some perserverence you can readily make a ROM to suit your needs. 8)

It's been a lot of effort from a lot of developers over a long time. I think we're getting close to not having it labelled "beta" anymore.

This unfortunately sounds like a corrupted Excel file. The best answer would be to try one of the Excel file repair tools on the PC to attempt recovery of the file. The PC and PPC versions do open the files in different fashions, so if it's broken on both, it's probably seriously damaged in some way.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Tuatara:
Re: Farewell to the WM5

Thats unfortunate to hear ... but reflashing the device shouldn't have been necessary. Possibly a hard-reset (No/Yes/Yes in the boot options) may be required depending on application incompatibility, but reflashing should not change anything - unless your device has some hardware faults. (which it sounds like it might).

This sounds like a software (or hardware) issue. Check all of the pins/contacts/etc. and ensure that they are clean. Also, ensure that you're not overclocking your device. This could easily lead to a lot of problems if not done with due care.

You may also need to quickly reset the BA on startup if the Radio ROM doesn't come up (i.e. R: NONE) - I have to do this whenever I remove the battery (change SIM). Not having the radio available may cause the GPS software to 'lose the plot' and cause problems.

Have you checked that this isn't an incompatibility with the phone itself? I have a number of devices for my Himalaya which work flawlessly, but using them on the BA causes random crashes and failures. It doesn't surprise me at all that devices built for Himalaya won't work reliably on the BA.

Unfortunately this most likely is just a hardware and/or software incompatibility which can't be solved by the ROM change - but only by the manufacturer of the GPS hardware and software.

Often we STILL need to wait for software to be updated for WM5 compatibility. Some works 'out of the box' ... others ... no luck.

Please ensure that you have done a HARD-RESET and have selected NO/YES/YES for the boot options. Failure to do so will ensure that your device will NOT work with the TuMa v1.3 ROM. You'll be running the device using old registry settings which will cause untold things to fail.

TuMa v1.4

Hi everyone ...

Just an update - I'll be working on the v1.4 ROM during the rest of this week, and probably on the plane flight back home (to pass the time instead of watching movies for hours on end).

I'll aim to have something ready mid to end next week, along with a registry upgrade path for those currently on v1.3 if this is possible. I'm almost certain I can do something like this (even removing the SmartDial, etc.), but I can't anticipate all possible configurations. Hopefully the upgrade won't break anything, but I can't make any guarantees. As always, the best answer will be to install the ROM and then start fresh. :wink:

The Himalaya AKU2 port will then be my next undertaking. I've already done a fair amount of the 'leg work' in getting the port ready, but still haven't had success in a stable running system. I'll obviously be taking all that I've learned in making the TuMa v1.3/v1.4 ROM stable and applying that knowledge to the new Himalaya Port. This Port may take some time to get right, so I'll keep making updates on progress.

Please keep listing all issues with TuMa v1.3 and enhancements you'd like to see. I'm tracking all the changes and fixes, and will implement those in the new version (along with the issues/fixes I've found along the way).
