it flashed this time, and booted to the 'tap the screen to set up your device' thing and played the sound, but the backlight and touchscreen are not functioning.

edit: heh you just beat me to it

edit2: i decompiled the rom and the touchscreen driver and backlight things are identical to other wm5 roms so i dont know why it doesnt work :(

edit3: i see many of the basic utilities like backlight control etc are missing in the rom dump, so i was wondering could you explain how to get the dll to boot so we can try adding it to an existing rom rather than making a 2.3 rom run on BA because for all we know this could be a problem of the rest of the rom not just the 2.3 elements (a bit more info would be nice :D )

Thanks Bepe,

I already send you old file nk.nbk, it included Ramdisk 32, you can add the AKU 2 coredll.dll to it. Do you receive it?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] helmi_c:
the ROM u post didn't work bepe, there's something missing from the default.hv maybe, I just take it as a base built, since u mention that u hv modify the coredll.dll so i take it as a base and combine. and everything seems to work okay now.. BT, WIFI, but i dont do camera yet... and just a little bit weird.. the certificates at the certificates applet is empty...hmm...?

the most important thing is now ActiveSync workin fine, but as the old ROM, Sync Contact, Calendar, , etc, is takes quite some times... but its work.. the worse bug is solved... thanks bepe... and offcourse thanks MAMAICH!.

its gettin really close... :wink:

Thanks for your hard work, after you fix AS, maybe you replace many old BA file, so about picture look like AKU 0.0. Can you recheck and build rom on other nk.nba to take 32M Ramdisk?

Wish you every success.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] helmi_c:
aah... I miss that, it just a registry value i taken from bepe rom, but the os I use are all the AKU 2.3 (Build 14955) OS, LOC 2.3 WWE, I just change the driver part

About ramdisk I think u can just edit the nk.nba to support ramdisk and add registry value in default.hv, but I'll try to rebuilt with 32mb ramdisk anyway...thanks for ur input logout, i'll post the result.

@helmi_c

I deleted sysroots.p7b from the xip section.

You'll have to remove certifications read this (mamaich... as always...)

Also remove this from your boot.rgu:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\SystemCertificates\Root]

"InitFile"="\\windows\\sysroots.p7b"

And set this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init\BootVars]

Guys,

Is there a possibility of another test version of this ROM that works... I got so jumpy with the one on the previous page, but it wouldn't flash, btw, is the A2DP working on this yet? Or hasn't anyone tried it yet... I'd be willing to test this ;)

I am stumped guys.. the wifi issue is due to the tiacxwln.dll file. The working version is 321k. I have made sure that is in the BA_driver folder.. I even double checked the dump folder prior to creating the ROM and it is still the same file.. but after I flash the ROM I come up with a 326k file that doesn't work.. I have to manually copy the 321k file into the windows folder and reset and then the wifi works normally.. where is this other file coming from?! Is this why you have to use the extrom helmi??
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] vivi:
Could you please upload the tiacxwln.dll (321k) file?

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] helmi_c:
Extended_ROM is more usefull then just that, and yes, theres some of the file can't be read by OS maybe the PE header is not correctly state/guess by the dump tools, u cant see that if u hv a task manager or a Wince remote proccess tool (Visual Studio 2005). And fyi BTA2DP.dll? never been load by OS till now, and thats why we cant get BTA2DP to work. Avrcp_MPplugin.dll is load ok (WMEdia Bt2dp extension), SBC.DLL dont load also dont know why...

bepe and me are start almost together (off course i got AKU.2.3 from him) at the begining port AKU 2.3 to BA, thats why mine and bepe hv different version/approach. but the base are still the same, I got AKU.2.3 from bepe, thanks him for that...

and also the next AKU3? will be different again beetween me and bepe, since we start it different way, and different approach maybe... but thanks to him, cos of his info for the right tool I can make my AKU3.0 to work, before it i get stuck on today screen... that 1 file makes me mad!... thanks bepe...

ur welcome vivi...

Dear developers,

The disappearance of eMail account settings upon changing batteryboth happens to Tuma 4 and Helmi 1 ROM. Currently, I need to soft reset the machine on the booting screen "R None" to prevent it from happening.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Black6spdZ:
Helmi, so in other words you are saying the the files extracted from the nba using imgfs_tools may not be all of the files present in the ROM? And this is the reason for the wrong Wlan driver being loaded?

Question(s) For Midget :D

@Midget...

I've been using helmi_c's ROM with RAMisk for a while but found over the last few days that it became very unstable, not sure why... PIM data dropped, BT/WiFi unresponsive, icons disappearing... not concerned really it's still beta after all!

But yesterday I decided to try a new ROM, your AKu2.3 v1.1 and without adding any tweaks or overclocking, it is by far the fastest WM5 AKU 2.3 ROM I have tried, very responsive even with several apps installed/running... I'm really impressed with it as a base ROM, so...

1. Are you still working on this?

and if so...

2. Do you have a RAM Disk version?

3. Do you have a version with WiFi in Comm Manager?

4. Do you have MSN fixed? (Fixed with your MSN+WiFi Fix and Activesync is OK)

and if not...

Can you post your DEV folder et al so I/we can work on it :D

My intention is to build a very personal ROM (which I will share of course) including the Eten Dialler (I assume this is possible?)and my stock apps (Call Filtering + the stuff included in TuMa such as PocketRAR, Pocket Notepad etc...) and I'd love to start with yours as a base ROM...

helmi.. have we figure out a way to not need the ext_rom use? It would be such a pain to have to dynamically change its size to fit the programs/utilities needed each time or else there is just wasted space if you allocate more than is needed. what about the SD Ext_rom I've read about?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] spkr4thdd:

Any idea on how to recover the missing 32mb of RAM? Thanks.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] odie3:
I agree, why not use SD EXT_ROM? Heck I need to re-downgrade to make my Extended_Rom from 16 to 8 - I would much rather do away with it. I want to make it small but not to small - if we had it in SD then no worries!

Or am I missing something about using SD and that being a bad idea?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Midget_1990:
@odie3: its a bad idea for people who:

a) dont have one (everyone has an extrom)

b) have a small SD card and want to fit as much other stuff (music etc) on it as possible

@SKassam: it involves decryting and hex editing the nk.nbf file, then reflashing, PM me if you know how to do that and i'll give you the values, otherwise i wouldnt recommend it as you could f*ck up your device.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] odie3:
Well, its not that bad - I do not recall when TuMu roms where released people complaining about not having a SD card. ;)

Seems eating up 8 [or even the 16MB defualt] is nothing for a SD card - then again I do have a 1 GB card [and could not even think of not having one at all].

I would figure users like us would have a SD card [with ample space for a ext_rom]. We are a bit advanced from a normal PDA user [or I would like to think we are]. :)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] spkr4thdd:
@midget

Is it the .nbf, or the .nba that needs to be hex edited? And if it's the latter how do I then return that to an nk.nbf? I tried the following before...

1. Converted helmi_c's nk.nbf->nk.nba

2. hex edited relevant sectors

3. Added nk.nba to a dev folder

4. Ran createos.exe then createos.bat

At that point it hung... perhaps I was using the wrong boot.rgu, not sure but I couldn't get it to work... am I in the right ball park, or do I need to do it differently?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Midget_1990:
its the .nba you edit - its the decrypted version of the .nbf, not a clue why yours hung, mine works flawlessly. :/

Besides keyboard lag i've experienced a lot of slowdown after days of use with helmi's as well. I'm still trying to trace exactly what it is related to. If i don't activesync, it never slows down.

Okay... tried again, and it runs the createos.bat fine, but the exe fails on boot.rgu stating it is too big?! I haven't changed it so why should that happen?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Midget_1990:
no idea, try using the tools as they come (with your oem files) and then editing the nbf/nba AFTEr you have built your rom, thats what i did.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] spkr4thdd:
Okay, let me get this right...

1. Build my ROM

2. Convert nk.nbf -> nk.nba

3. Hex edit nk.nba

4. Convert nk.nba -> nk.nbf

5. Flash ROM

If that's right, then how do I do step 4?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Midget_1990:

Are you speaking of helmi's or your latest rom? I downloaded yours about 7 hours ago from this post and can't get the wifi to connect. Even after i apply the midget_msn/wifi fix it still sits trying to connect forever. Any idea? Or did you upload a newer rom since then? (never had this problem on helmi)

On a good note, SO FAR your rom doesn't slowdown if i activesync with wifi turned on. I had a recurring problem with helmi's rom that when i synced with wifi turned on (or i turned it on seconds after a sync) the device would slow to a crawl. After several minutes it would bounce back up, but no more than 50-75% of the speed after a fresh install.

ignoring initflashfiles

Hi midget_1990

I've had this problem in the past. The only way round it I found was to take an existing, working initflashfiles.txt from another package and edit it very carefully in notepad. Leave all whitespace untouched, remove all lines except one.

New edit that line to make it perform one of the functions you need. Don't modify the last visible character of the line, or anything beyond it, to avoid disturbing any unusual carriage-return/linefeed characters.

Then cut+paste that line, edit and continue.

It's a fiddly and unscientific process, but for me it works.

By the way - I also have a working-ish AKU3 build, but it's acting bloody strangely. The main problem is screen artifacts that look like incorrect color depth and a slightly misaligned display buffer. I've got the screen working without artifacts, but sometimes on reboot they return for no apparent reason.

Stayed up til 4am with that problem. The missus was not impressed ;-)

well I wanted to let everyone try my contribution to the project.. all fixes, patches, and speed tweaks have been applied that I have read here and even other sites pertaining to WM5. I have to give a disclaimer though because I have packaged xcpuscalar in it that scales from 300 to 530 and have also OC'd the aATI gpu to get the most speed possible.. although I have used it fine on my two BAs YRMV. Only thing I know does not work is Mobile PowerPoint. This however works on AKU3, so if this is important to you wait until that is released in a stable beta.
