Re: FIRST BUGS

Haven't experienced #1 as of yet, but I'll keep watching for it.

I didn't notice this at first, but tried it with same result. Thanks for doing the hard reset (saves me the trouble)

I think xelencin chopped more out (maybe resulting in the bugs??)

Otherwise, ROM woks great!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] rxr:
I too experience this. Until this is fixed tho, going into the call logs then tapping and holding the number then selecting "Save to Contacts" actually works.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] aron7awol:
First off, I'd like to say thanks to xelencin!

I'm incredibly happy with this ROM.

I am experiencing bug #2 mentioned above as well, but I can deal with it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] wireless_one:
That actually doesn't work for me . . . :cry:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] theleland:
xelencin you are absolutely awesome. Thanks for making this available to the community!

A question on the rom - do we still need to apply the tweaks like we did back before you started posting such excellent work? As you said on your web page, we the wireless G is taken care of. I'm wondering if I should still install the other tweaks not explicitly mentioned, like:

camera speckle

DJVW HTC Wizard optimizer

Camera patch

Discobutton8

GPRS-stall

Camera Driver Patch

Update RingTone

Smart Dialing enable

I'm guessing probably not, but if you could confirm that'd be awesome of you. Thanks also for posting that list of softwares you install on your site - it's nice to know what the most knowledgable person here on all things XDA is putting on their PPC.

Again, thanks for the rom!

Will this work on the Cingular 8125?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Daddy_Spank:
Yeah, thanks again for the rom man. Me too can confirm bug number 1 and 2. I am also having trouble some time making calls. Sometimes after dialing the number, it hangs up on its own and i have to dial it a few times before i get "connected" in the status field. Otherwise, rom works great.

Thanks again!

A2DP

Xelencin,

I used you 2.17 ROM before I noticed the 2.21. Anyway, it is working very well. The change to the WiFi g is testing (using dslreports.com) ls showing from 700 to 1200 kbps. Before I was lucky to get 400 to 600kpbs.

I also wanted to report that I downloaded the Zokie A2DP .cab from your website. It worked well with both my stereo headsets.

The only fix I'd like to see is to actually close programs when the X is hit. It's tiring to keep having to open memory and stop programs.

Thanks so much for your fine work
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] rxr:
Actually you're right, and what i also notice is, with every attempt, and if the screen auto-closes, multiple "Unknown callers" get added to contacts.

What seems to be successful tho, is when u click on Save to contacts, have your stylus ready and grab the scroll pad on the right and scroll up and down with it, to stop it from closing.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] MannyPR:
Working as stated above. Both bugs confirmed but bearable.

Xelecin rocks!!! Thanks man!

Re: Keyboard tweaked

Super reply time! I try to answer what I can, you guys must remember that unless I encounter the problem myself I honestly don't know how to deal with it. I would advise posting it here though and hopefully other forum members can help you. Sorry if I skipped your question.

Thanks for the info, I had no idea. I know this rom defaults to English UK and it screws up about half of the alternate keys which is why I include a cab to change it to US English.

I would recommend SIM-Unlocking the device prior to flashing to prevent possible errors. You need to do this with software such as lokiwiz which is available on these forums. Ringtones should be store in \Windows\Rings or on the root (main) folder of the memory card.

You make sure the device is connected to ActiveSync and it run it from the PC.

Zoki A2DP is available on these forums and on my site, I don't have a stereo headset myself yet so I haven't included it. I have no idea what AVRCP is.

This is for T-Mobile USA service. The higher the numbers the newer the version.

Yup.

This is part of Windows Mobile 5.0 AKU2.0 and is currently not changable. I read on the forums that the AKU2.2 update will give carriers the option to remove the taskbar battery icon.

If you've had this problem with more than one ROM it sounds like its the device itself (the wizard in general) or your router that is the problem. Try turning off security on the router and see if it connects fine then, if it does, get a new router. I have a Netgear 802.11g router, one can be had on ebay for $25.

I'e seen some poeple have this problem with the last rom update. I have no idea what causes it, but to fix it you need to have your phone SIM-Unlocked. I would advise downgrading to the origional 1.08 rom and using lokiwiz to SIM-Unlock your device. After you do this try updating to 2.21 again. If SIM-Unlocking doesn't work with lokiwiz you can call T-Mobile to request an SIM-Unlock code.

Clear your cache/temporary files in Windows and try again.

I have not experienced any of these issues, sorry.

Thanks. I've inspected your roms too, you should consider stripping them down as you include a lot of uneeded Cingular cabs.

1. I don't have the voicemail issue, mine calls Voicemail when I do this.

2. I just tried this and experienced it. The second time I pressed down directional key as soon as the window opened and it stayed open. This bug is most likely part of this OS build, next release will hopefully fix it.

3. It's the OS build itself and the fact I stripped down the customizations as much as possible. I had some unnecessary T-Mobile items in there before.

Bingo, but this isn't resulting in bugs. If you do a hard reset and do a soft reset when it attempts to install customizations you can run the rom bare and will most likely experience the same problems.

Install InClose from my site, it'll do the job for you.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Daddy_Spank:
Thanks for all your hard work man. If I was CEO of T-mobile, I would hire you right away :)

I paid the 40 bux and unlocked the phone, upgrade went fine after that.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sskarlatos:
Xecelin, thank you for the great work and excellent responses on this thread.

From 2.17, I personally gained 1.2MB of program memory and lost .47MB of storage memory (no biggy since I place the major portion of my data on my 1GB mini SD). This is based on base hard reset + the SOTI Pocket Controller.

I blogged about my experience here.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dulyang:
I also want to extend my sincere appreciation to your hard work for this community, xelencin.

It is nice to have an expert on T-Mobile MDA on this board.

I have installed the ROM that you made and it worked great.

All those little annoying problems above did not really bother me at all.

Once again, thank you.

sim contacts

everything works fine with the 2.21 rom except that my sim contacts dont appear in my contacts any more. its like they dont load. i can not send an sms if i dont load the sim contacts onto the phone itself. is there a solution? i work in 2 different countires with 2 sims cards and 2 constact lists. - thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] LordPhong:
First I'd like to thank Xelencin for the ROM. I think it's a wee bit better then the 2.17 (perhaps it's just psychological)

The one difference I noticed from the upgrade and was surprised that no one here posted is the fact that I can't hand up a call from the BT headset. I was able to do this fine on 2.17. Am I the only one experiencing this?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] masr1979:
I experienced this........ silly me I had authentication set to SHARED on my router and OPEN on my MDA.... OOOOOOPPPSSS! mayb your being "silly" too; although, mayb that was just me.

It's a registry tweak, but you can edit the registry manually yourself. If I'm not mistaken, you need to go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\ShowSim -this dword should have a decimal value of "0", just change it to "1" and that should fix it.

Oh and thanks again xelecin. The rom isn't leaking as much memory as before either, I start of at 22 after a soft reset and it can pretty much stay over 17 for a day or 2, depending on usage of course.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] aron7awol:
By "hand up a call", do you mean transfer a call from the bluetooth earpiece to the handset itself?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] intothevoid:

Hi xelencin thank you for you contribution. I just bought the MDA and have seemed to successfully update the rom with no hiccups so far. :D

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] masr1979:
Open up Total Commander and when your at the root of your MDA's drive you will have on top a folder with " \\ " for a name. Open that up, you should now have 3 folders "ftp", "LAN", and the one you need to go to next "registry". After you open up the registry folder you have 3 more folders "HKCR", "HKCU", and "HKLM" open up "HKCU" now look for the "ControlPanel" folder. Withing that folder look for the "Phone" folder. Now when you open up the "Phone" folder look for an entry called "ShowSim" when you open that up it should have a value of "0" change that to a "1" power cycle the device by pressing the power button for a few seconds and answering yes to the warning, turn you device back on, and voila!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] gio2003:
Selencin,

thank you for your contribution.

One simple question: does your custom rom come with cid/sim unlocked. In other worlds, if I switch my sim to a different one, is it going to work?.

Thank you
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] masr1979:
Not sure what you have to modify for that, but long story short try this little app http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=39725&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

It should help you with these little tweaks. Just remember to need to apply the settings, by tapping on "menu" then "apply". If you press the ok button at the top right, it doesn't apply the changes.

Can't connect to internet when docked

Hi All,

Hopefully I am just missing something obvious.

I just upgraded last night to 2.21 from 1.08 that came with the MDA (just got it last Thursday). Now when I have it plugged in to my computer via the USB cable it cannot connect to the internet. This was working before the upgrade.

When I first plug in the device it waits a little while then give the message "Cannot connect with current settings...". If I try to fire up an application that auto connects like IE, it starts up the GPRS connection and eventually gives an error of "The page cannot be displayed because the connection was lost."

I am using a connection directly to the webmail exchange server for mail, contacts, etc. It works fine when not connected to the USB. On the ActiveSync window on my PC it gives an error that the exchange server could not be reached (though I know it can at least from my PC).

For ActiveSync connection settings on the PC side I tried both "The Internet" and "Automatic" for "This computer is connected to:"

For ActiveSync connection settings on the MDA side I have checked "Synchronize all PCs using this connection: USB" for "When cradled".

Any ideas?

Thanks!

--------------

EDIT --

I don't know what I did, but it seems to have righted itself. I was playing with some settings and disabled then re-enabled synching via USB (on both the PC and MDA) plus installing some other software and did a reset while plugged in.

I want to try different ROMs, and tried to downgrade this ROm to a 2.16 iMate K-JAM ROM. When it started, it said UPGRADE ONLY.

Ok, so I got my brand new mda yesterday and wanted to upgrade the rom for performance. I ran the install for the 221 rom update with out a problem but now I get the 'Data Crashes' message when I insert my sim card. I paid $40 to have it unlocked, but when I load it in bootloader and connect it to the computer via usb, active synce doesnt recognize it so the unlock software cant connect to get what it needs. Anybody know of a way to get the active sync to connect when bootloader is loaded?

Downgrade solved contacts Issue

Xelencin, I downgraded back to your last custom ROM and the issue with the contacts went away. Other than the extended ROM, did you make changes to the base ROM that could be the reason? It's weird that the same underlying ROM would do this after your recent changes. Any thoughts?

I also noticed a larger amount of connected calls that neither myself nor the call recipient could hear each other with the new ROM. That has also disappeared after downgrading.

Just some observations. . .
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] masr1979:

Expect a AKU 2.2 custom rom, as of right now version 2.25, within a week or so.

It will automatically try to CID-Unlock your device, not SIM-unlock.

I for the life of me cannot find these options anywhere in the registry. I want to turn off the "sending" notification greatly but I haven't found a way yet.

The rom defautly hides SIM contacts, you need to copy your SIM contacts to your device. I have not experienced any call issues.

THANK YOU for all your hard work making this stuff public! The learning curve is a steep one but well worth it!!! I went right from whatever T-Mobile sold me the phone with (1.08 I think) directly to 2.21 with no problems. I'd SIM-unlocked right away with 1.08 and then CID-unlocked when I figured out what the fsck that was :wink: - naturally by READING AND READING AND READING this forum.

The rebuild with all the apps was not that difficult either. I used to manage servers for a living (before I got smart and started doing consulting - the business equivalent of a one-night stand and with minimal office politics :D ) and I just created a change management/bare metal recovery document for my phone just like I did with mission critical servers. It lives on my 1GB storage card along with some other stuff and contains the list of apps and registry changes on the phone - with the most important piece of information being EXACTLY how to configure T-Zones to wring the most possible service out of it ;)

Thanks again!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] wireless_one:
I was actually referring to the inability to save a contact from the call history screen. Hopefully, 2.25 will have that issue handled, but my point was that your 2.17 ROM doesn't have that issue, which means something between 2.17 and 2.21 went awry. Not complaining (I really appreciate your hard work and desire to improve things) . . .Just observations to help out . . .

xelencin,

Do you plan to cook Qtek 2.8.7 (Test ROM) + T-Mobile Ext. ROM ???

I tried Qtek 2.8.7 (Test ROM). It's very stable. Also, it gave a "bit more" room for the system storage & program memory area. But the Qtek's Ext. ROM is locked. I couldn't shove the T-Mobile Ext. ROM into it.

Pls let me know if you do plan to cook one. I volunteer to be a guinea pig.
