for vga - could you add the fixed exes of power, microphone... so the leters are displayed right? and also the bmps for phone background are 1MB each, could you make then more small ? also you could include vjbigbuttons. i can try to help/do something if you want!!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
@adolfotregosa

It would be great if you want to do that. I am not that much interested in the vga mode to do enough for and with it to get it out of the alpha status.

Tell me what you need to do this.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] waldeis:
the vga still doesn't work for me, the start/close button is missing a lot of icons are wrong for example in the file explorer the folder icon is not there and so on.

Can someone post good settings for ozVGA for font sizes ? I didn't get it looking good and good readable so far.

Applied HTC3GVT.rar patch on my Beta6 and video telephony works now.

Downloaded VGA test2 cab and installed on Beta6: result, still same missing volume, radio signal on the top bar and the Start icon is fuzzy below... same as before for me, I'll run some more tests but first impression is similar to VGA alpha1
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
Hmm strange. Are you sure that you use the beta6 ? Or do you use a cab file which replaces the original HTC3gvt.dll.

I say this because the original HTC3gvt.dll is the same as the HTC3gvt.dll patch file. So the error must be on your side.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] adolfotregosa:
i need help from ivan. we need to know why the *96.dll files does not work on this rom ! after that the cab would be easy to redo
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] XzaniX:
OK can be maybe was just one more soft reset that solved the problem. Anyway, don't worry seems to work as it works for me now and worked for others and yourself just flashing Beta6. Dont spend time with this....

About VGA:

I've just applied all files from: ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Tools_Programs/VGA_AKU2.zip

after the VGA*alpha2 cab and looks much better. Start and other icons are nor at correct place. Still missing Radio signal and volume on the top...

Maybe it can help.... :roll:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] cottinghamm:
Using the original OzVGA works fine with AKU3.2 except the volume and radio signal icons. What has changed in this version of VGA ?

I have fine tuned my VGA to the point that I can live without the icons for the time being - installing this alpha does not seem to offer any improvement.

Martin
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] adolfotregosa:
that's the problem ! it does not put the volume and sinal icons. The rom does not read some *.96.dll file or it does not apply the icons. I need help from ivan to track down the problem. After that i'll do the final vga cab for aku 3.2 rom. Also the volume button does not work either (in vga) :( ivan iuuu iuuu !!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Doodle:
Now I am in trouble. Upgraded from beta 5 to beta 6 and the universal did not want to go past the splash-screen. I reflashed the original Rom and also there it did not want to pass the splash screen. The only thing I did between beta 5 and 6 is run buzz's sim unlocker (my phone was unlocked but i wanted super CID). I tried the link for "all those who are stuck in the bootloader) but this does not help as I am stuck in the splash screen and this post does not seem to offer help.

Who can assist please?

conflict between bpb poctplus and beta versions

Hi,

Had posted earlier that in beta 5 and 6 there was sudden drop in program memory.

Have found that there is a conflict with SPB Pocket plus and Diary where there is a hugh drop in the program memory that the whole phone set gets hanged.

ANy solutions for it as otherwise the phone seems fine and v gud to use bt this conflict makes a problem to use .

Plz

Plz find a solution.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] chris_khho:
Yeah. I had the same problem with spb diary....

But I still use spb today plus but diable the today function, just use the close button that I am familiar with. (The magic button has problem from time to time that hang my machine).

Try pocket breeze. I think its better than spb diary.

Cheers,

Hmm really strange.

What radio version do you have ?

What extended rom version do you have (selfmade,some other original unmodified, my provided)?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
I do not know why some files are not loaded. Maybe they are too old, or there are some more files missing.

Your extended rom (with the extra goodies)

Could this have anything to do with Buzz's super CID?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] MickKnatterton:
due to several bugs with my mda-pro device, I would like to update to a new ROM! But the new one has not just to be reliable but also compatible to my Pim-Data from ROM 1.23.43, because AS doesn't sync my Outlookdata (has never worked without errors!). I have a backup-tool from Sbp too, but i guess this wouldn't make much sense!

Can anybody tell me, if Rom3.2rc (or a more advanced version probably?)works with older pim's, or which version does actually?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] thiam77:
Lt.Cmdr.Ivan, can i check if this AKU 3.2 upgrade include the Net Compact Framework 2.0, if not can u try to include in the next Beta Release cos alot of new programs need the latest Net Compact Framework 2.0 to work, but if downloaded independently into our universal will take up 4-5mb of storage space and thats a lot of space wasted for an update. Thanks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
@doodle

Super CID is my device too. I thinks this is not a real problem. Maybe you try a original extended rom from any manufacturer.

@thiam77

You can look if it is inside. if i get the location where to download i'll have a look.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] thiam77:
U can download Microsoft Net Compact Framework 2.0 from

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] adolfotregosa:
ivan do you know why your rom does not apply the *.96.dll files ?? what could it be ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Conchas:
Ivan,

how to disable/uninstall Voice Speed Dial?

I would prefer to try Voice Commander, but as it seems you included it directly into ROM of Beta 6, instead of ExtROM.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] stanip:
Anybody cares to comment on the key difference & your experience between beta 4 and beta 6? Is it worth investing 2 hours to do the upgrade?

Thanks.

Does it also have CHT version???Because I am Taiwanese.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] alphaandomega:
First of all, Ivan, THANK YOU! Absolutely awesome and inspiring job you're doing!

I strongly suspect that the problems that people have been having with the latest ROMs have to do with backup software.

People use programs, like SPB Backup and Sunnysoft Backup to backup their programs, because they don't feel like reinstalling all the programs again, but what you should know is that these programs overwrite new files with old files in ROM too. (Even the version of Windows changes to the old one!)

DO NOT use backup software to restore your files after you reflash to a new version. We all have the same piece of hardware - same in every aspect exept the outside cover color - and there should be no reason why Ivan's ROM would work on some machines and not others. That sounds like a software problem that has to do with 3rd party software.

My phone works brilliantly now, thanks to Ivan's efforts and the only thing that is strange is the battery quitting on me at around 40%, but many people have had this issue with many different newer ROMs.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] docraj:
I wholeheartedly agree. I have flashed my ROM from the initial beta thru RC1 to Beta6. I never had any of the issues listed above.

I think this is due to the fact that, though I have Sprite backup, I have always reinstalled ALL my apps from scratch. The extra effort is worth it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] godtakeit:
Hi Ivan

Thanks for your efforts, this ROM work flawlessly fast. However, I got some strange problem

1. Installation went fine, no problem at all. After a while ( few days ), touch screen is not aligned anymore. I have done the alignment several times and it keeps comming back after few days.

2. Bluetooth stereo app does not work at all.

3. AD2P worked but still have the same problem as any ROM ( maybe it is only my case even after apply the Priority256 reg hack )

Don't know if anyone else having the same problem as mine but would love to let you know.

Cheers mate
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
As it seems nobody needs the Bluetooth stereo app, i will remove it in the next version.

(If there is a scream in the masses against the removal i will make a cab or add it in the rom again, no problem since no registry entries are needed)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Conchas:
Great Ivan, make a cab.

I would suggest to do the same for 'Cyberon Voice Speed Dial v1.1', as someones may prefer to use 'Cyberon Voice Command v1.6' instead.

What do you think about?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] hrb:
No, no, no !

I use A2DP extensively with my Stereo BT Headset

Cheers

hrb
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
Do you use the bt stereo app ?

Or do you couple your device with the bt stack program ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] hrb:
I use both, mainly with the bt stack program

Cheers

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
ok i tested the voice commander.

very good application.

say goodbye to voice speed dial.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Conchas:
But can you provide the 'Voice Speed Dial v1.1' cab anyway?

I just have the v1.0.

Better to chose or put it into ExtROM, than to have it 'forced' into ROM!?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] youmeus:
:shock: No, no, no ,no no no

please leave bluetooth app! I use it...I still have not gotten my headset to work with lag but still playing with it.

Any chance of you getting voice command to work in your next rom?

Please please please!!! :o

youmeus
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
bt stereo app will remain

voice command will work as main thing/ voice speed dial is on the list to be as cab file.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] magxs:
Ivan, great work! I just installed the new ROM without any problems. All my apps run as they should. The only thing I noticed is that the Stereo Bluetooth icon doesn't do anything. But that's been reported before (and I don't use it anyway).

I don't feel a speed improvement over the latest (already fast) Dopod ROM I used before. Perhaps just a little, but I guess that is due to the fact that this is a fresh and clean installation and not much rubbish has accumulated yet.

So far I haven't applied any of the old reg hacks for speed improvement, like changing HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\limit to 32768 or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize to 4096 and others. Has anybody tried this? Does it make a difference?

Many thanks for great work!

Btw, great to get the clock back on the today screen!

Hi Ivan,

I've got a strange prob with Beta6 which didn't happen with previous versions.

1stly, I Upgraded to Beta6 and restored my backup. Everything was fine but sometimes, when I switched off the phone and turned it on later, it hanged for around 10->15secs. As I calculated, the prob happened at a rate of 3/10.

I thought maybe there were some software crashs so I HR the device and didnt install anything. The prob still happened.

I downgraded to Beta4 and it disappeared.

So....any suggestion?

Tks bros
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
Hopefully Voice Speed Dialer.

Then the problem will disappear in beta 7 because it hasn't either of the cyberon progs in it.

On another note, is it possible to include windows live messenger into the rom?

I had issues with the voice commander software not recognising what I say (the voice speed dial works great) you should take that into account...

Beta 6 - SMS & Email Notification not working

I flashed to the beta 6 rom, but just the operating system, without changing the radio (I had 1.09) or the extended rom (Stayed with UK Vodafone's latest).

After a few soft resets, and finally a hard reset to clean, I'm still not able to get SMS or Email notification. Alarms seem to be working fine - I haven't tried MMS yet.

The messages arrive no problem, but without vibration, lights, sound, icon or bubble.

Anyone else had this issue? I've only seen one mention in the 22 pages on this subject, so I reckon I'm missing something here. Any help appreciated.

P.S. I have checked the notification settings. :?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:
@moeaboelela

Maybe you can make the arabizer running on the rom ?

@Pinion

It is not recommended to use a complete old or original Provider Extrom as it has been reported before ( as you mentioned ) to be stable.

you have to pick out the few things you need and leave everything else out.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] thiam77:
Hi Ivan, regards to the A2DP stability issue on the AKU 3.2 ROM, i compared the registries value on the official QTEK 1.30.77 ROM under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Bluetooth

There are Two Folders named

1)A2DP/Devices/1/2/3/4- four subfolders with values input

2)A2DP/Settings- with values

These Two Folders are missing in your AKU 3.2 ROM and this might be why some beta testers are facing some skipping issues with A2DP on this ROM. The values are embedded in the QTEK ROMS so there are no cabs to input to registry. The is only my personal investigation and the above information is for ypur reference only, hope others who are more experience on A2DP can comment on this. Thanks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] moeaboelela:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Lt.Cmdr.Ivan:

This cab is for the version number in the Device Information Program.

RealVGA v4 is out. Please try and report which one runs best (fewest glitches).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] congogr:
So Beta 7 (or any other beta, too) needs to be installed, and also Real Vga v3 or v4 etc, for the full upgrade to run?

Also, there is no "full" installation guide and one must read 23 pages to find out (almost) how to install. For instance, I haven't yet understood whether the Beta7 upgrade (or the previous ones) also contain useful programs on the extended rom. You are talking about "light" versions or "full" versions, but I only see one file for each update. :-(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] adolfotregosa:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] bbcshokker:
HI,

regarding the VGA issue, I'm not sure if this will work,

but could you, Ivan (or someboy else who is capable of), extract the following files from the AKU 3.2 ROM:

(I would do it myself, but I haven't had success with the tool from mamaich)

1. arrow2.192.gif

2. browsres.192.dll

3. complete.192.gif

4. coreres.192.dll

5. exappres.192.dll

6. instmsgrressorces.192.dll

7. msim.192.dll

8. officeres.192.dll

9. outres.192.dll

10. pegcards.192.dll

11. pmsnressources.192.dll

12. shellres.192.dll

13. stylus2.192.gif

14. taperes.192.dll

15. TraRes0409.192.dll

16. tshres.192.dll

17. welcomehead.192.png

There is also a file stylushead.92.gif and welcomehead.92.gif in the VGA Hack, but I didn't find a stylushead.192.gif and welcomehead.192.gif in the

windows folder, so you'd probably just need to copy these files from the posted VGA Hack.

From my understanding the VGA Hack works like this:

There is a registry key that sets the resolution, and normally it's set to 192 dpi, when you start WM5 the system searches for the files mentioned above with the 192 in name. Know if you change the dpi in the registry from 192 to 92 (VGA) the system will search for the files with 92 in the name (for example taperes.92.dll instead of taperes.192.dll).

So what somebody did was extract all the files (from an AKU 2.x ROM) with the 192 in name, renamed them to .96 and then copied them back to the windows folder, so now the system will find these files.

And i think that some of these files might have been updated from AKU 2.x to AKU 3.x, and that's why it's not working correctly, because one of the VGA files posted above is outdated.

So what you'd need to do is extract all the mentioned files,

replace the 192 in the name with 92, take the two files stylushead.92.gif,

welcomehead.92.gif from the VGA Hack

and copy them to the windows folder, install the SdkCerts.cab from the posted VGA Hack, and use OZVGA to set VGA mode.

Thanks and I hope it will work ;-)

Question JMM

Question to Ivan:

Did jmm.exe change from Beta 6 to Beta 7 ?

I am asking because I get an error message when using opera mini with Beta 7, not so with Beta 6.

Strange enough: other midlets, such as google maps, gmaps etc. are working OK with Beta 7. So it's only opera mini.

Any hint ?

And btw: it's not the midlet which is the problem since I can use it w/o any problem on Beta 7 when using the IBM Midlet manager.
