helmi_c,

:oops: really didn't saw this! hehe :lol: lol

you're the best, man!

the only problem with this is I cannot send contacts written in russian. tried with Nokia phones, it sends all the contact data, but contact name comes as a crap. do you have an idea how to solve this?

I dont think so, since it was an WWE rom, maybe someday Buzz or bepe hv Localize for other languange... try to look here for Localize the AKU3.0 rom. see if it available. but I doubt it, maybe when AKU3.0 really available for other device.

hmm.. how about the UNICODE setting on sms setting, hv u tried to enable it?

and is it still crapy if u send it via mms?

i dont really understand, did u mean after u click the blank radio button it goes to Messaging (MMS) but when u send it, it wont send the MMS? is that what u mean?

I don't think localization will help. BTW, Sunnysoft and O2 SMS Plus sending russian contacts with no problems so it should be the way to fix this in your ROM. May be mamaich could help, once he localized smartdialer search function - that was really great! As for unicode - that was first I've checked. I have "Use Unicode when necessary" option enabled in Messaging options and russian text goes fine with usual SMS. But I noticed that when I'm sending vCard thru SMS it opens like a usual SMS composing window but in "From" field there is "(Contacts)" instead of "(Text messages)". Could it be the reason that it uses another profile without uicode enabled? Or smth like this?

As for MMS - I don't know if it is working for me. I'm using corporate cell and MMS is disabled for us. That's why I'm trying to make "vCard thru SMS" work.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] helmi_c:
thats strange, with me everything about mms is oke, check the setting and network coverage maybe?

if that what happen, i'm confused then..lol... cant read russian... btw can u send me the O2 SMS plus?

German localize test... Try at your own risk just testing capabilities..

Some are still in english (Shortcut) but the core are German. this might be an advantage havin dual languange system. Just uninstall and restart to go back to english.

I dont support this any further, just for my curiousity purpose, maybe someone might get it full localize it. pm me for more detail. especially rom maker.

You're the greatest. This was indeed the missing link.

BT works great :!: Better then every ROM i used before, same goes for GPRS. A few examples of behavior that never worked before:

Pushing the button on my BT-headset makes the phonewindow pop-up in front, even puts tomtom in the background.

walking away from bt headset and bt-gps while oziexplorer is active. Than after ten minutes of shopping stepping back in the car the bt-gps connection will re-establish without any interaction needed. And again, just pushing the bt-headset button makes the phonewindows pop-up to make a call.

And for GPRS: the connection is always-on, no interaction needed. In the old wm2003 day's after a wifi or cradle-connection it was most of the time necessary to soft-reset to get GPRS back on.

So at this point i have all the functions i had in previous ROM's but now faster and more stable than ever. :lol: :lol:

I'll come back with some little issues and the ability to use new AKU3.0 features

No WiFi resume after suspend-mode

When @home i like to use wifi instead of GPRS. Turning on WiFi works okay, but when the device goes to sleep after a while of inactivity the wifi connection seems to turn of. Mail sync's use GPRS and when i activate the device wifi also won't turn back on.

Is this "as designed" or is there something i can do about this.

BT wake-up solutions

It looks as if the old BT bug of loosing BT is in this ROM still solved via taking the device out of suspend mode every few minutes. Because when BT is ON the device will keep turning-on, which offcourse takes a lot of battery-power.

Am I right?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] gtp:
I'm sure not. I've tried a few times and it is always the same. Also, this problem persists with some other vCard senders (I've tried a few also found on this forum). E.g. this one: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=92025#92025

@ hemi_C

Yes I did a hard reset the device after upgrading. The upgrading went smoothly. If you start a new SMS and use real keyboard(built in keyboard) that is where the problem happened. I am not sure if this happen because of Imaginet arabizer suite. I will try to hard reset and test before installing Imaginet arabizer suite, and post the result.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] helmi_c:
well, to put wifi on all the time is not a good idea since wifi is the worse battery sucker, btw in my device, the wifi is automaticaly on and search for connection when back from suspend mode. i've try it to suspend-on-suspend-on 10x no problem. even when bt put the device out of suspend mode, the wifi automatically turn on, and searching for network.

and about BT wake-up solutions, yes this one is suck, i've tried drivers from AKU.2.0, 2.3, 2.6,3.0 BT will shutdown when device wake up, but with the current driver bt will always turn on, but it also put the device out off suspen mode for some periodic time. this is heritage bug crap.

ic.. I've been using it now, and no problem... no problem at all...its confusin..

but maybe because I've a different rom(v.1.1c) and currently I dont release for public yet..still waitin for any input, and the most important is, I"ve been tryin to resolve the CommManager issues that cant turn wifi from the begining (hv to turn it on first before CommManager can play with it) and the phone light is keep flashing while in flight mode now, back to 2.3 this doesnt happen..

Cyberon Voice Commander and BT headset

Because nobody has been able to get MS Voice Command to work, I tried using Helmi_c's cab of CVC. It works fine on the phone itself but doesn't allow commands to be spoken into the BT headset as MSVC used to. Even MSVC wouldn't activate from the headset's button, but once you activated the proggie, you could speak the command into the headset and it would work. Not so with CVC. The commands have to be into the mic of the BA, not the BT headset. Comments?

Re: Cyberon Voice Commander and BT headset

Same questions from my side.:

On Tuma 1.3 i succesfully used Cyberon, but indeed i seperatly had to activate the voice commander, no reaction when pushing the headset button.

On Helmi-C i wasnot able to install Cyberion yet, but i'll give it a new try now some other issues are solved.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xdaradar:
weird, i'll give it some more try's. It's not really a big issue, but since @nigth my pda rests next to my fm-radio it generates a lot of noise on the radio when active on GPRS. Displacing the PDA somewhere else in the room is a perfect workaround for now 8)

another solution would be a scheduler in pop3 mail syning just as in exchange syncing. That would make GPRS silent as well. And i hate having to turn of/on functions manualy all the time when there are computers who can do the work for me.

Using the ROM - Needed Cab's, Patches , etc

I just had Tuma 1.3 flake out on me...so I am wanting to try this out. But as I've been reading through there are so many freakin patches, cab's, etc that fix this update that...I'm not sure what all needs to be done to get the most up-to-date and stable ROM going.

I haven't seen anything in the Wiki about this ROM and its patches...so, could someone that has been using this and knows what all needs to be done to get it current please post a mini tutorial.

If someone just does a basic outline, then I wouldn't mind writing a wiki entry with more detail. It's just a little time consuming to have to comb through all of the posts to find the cab that fixes this and that.

Excited to try this out!

slow response

All,

Thanks for your hard work with this ROM. I have installed it but find it very slow, menu's take a while to pop up and the screen refresh is not smooth. Is this due to the ROM or I have not flashed it correctly in some way?

Thanks

Love the rom so far execpt for one thing. My device (SX66) will not get past splash screen after installing spb pocket plus v3. I will probably just abandon using pocket plus but thought i would let you know I tested it extensively and it is the reason my device will hang. even after fresh flash of rom...all I do is install pocket plus and the device will not recover from soft reset. pocket plus seems to run fine as long as I dont reset the device. anyway, just a heads up. thanks for the awesome rom!

That is very interesting... I have SX66 (Cingular version with ATT SIM) and I am running Pocket Plus fine, without any problems. Only time I did have a problem is when I had SBSH PocketBreeze and Pocket Plus installed at the same time, and I was in the similar situation as you were.

hrm. interesting indeed. pocket plus v3? and what radio versions are you on? I am using 1.15 at the moment. my sx66 is also cingular but with t-mobile sim. not sure that should make any difference tho.

pocket plus

To - wurdipus

Yes, I do have the Pocket Plus 3, and I don't think it has changed much in the last couple of months... I downloaded it couple of months ago.

I am using 1.15 radio stack... and actually, when I soft reset, the whole screen would go past the initial green screen, but lock up at the initial blue screen... or rather in between. I would have the green bars on top and bottom, where the little bars are and I would have the initial screen in the middle, as if the SX66 has almost completed to boot up.

Microsoft Pushmail works in this ROM :!:

After getting the basics up-and-running i'm now into the new features.

As i understand Pushmail now, it only works on exchangemail via activesync and does not work for pop3 mail. But that's just fine for me.

On Activesync Schedule options i choose "as they arrive"

Via commmanager i enabled Microsoft Pushmail.

And yes, every mail that enters my exchange mailbox at the server side will instantly be delivered on my PDA. That's great.

The only thing is that pushmail forces gprs connection instead of wifi. Turning on pushmail will turnoff wifi at soon as the first new mail needs delivery.

gpsid.dll is missing from the ROM release

Helmi, you helped me out and posted this dll seperatly. Maybe you can add it to your summary post at the beginning of this thread.

mms-settings can't be configured

Helmi, on this subject you helped me out via posting EXTROM_operator.rar. This gave me the ability to configure my own mms settings, so independent of all the autoconfig operators. Maybe this one is also usefull in your summary.

Pocket Plus, Video Woes...

Well, I use spb pocket plus and i have no problems with it. My other Today Plugins are Pocket Diary and PocketWeather and all are working fine.

Now, on to the video problems:

@helmi_c:

Still no luck getting rid of the video stuttering. Installed D3D, and it did not seem to have any negative impact on the machine. A new option was made available to me on the TCPMP settings: now I can select the video output mode as 'DirectDraw' too. nevettheless, it still stutters, and it seems the best video mode is still ATI IMAGEON, which was already available before i installed the cab you posted.

Just for kicks, I overclocked the machine to 530MHz :) and it still stuttered every now and then. The benchmark told me it could run the movie at around 219% normal speed...

I don't know if you have already incorporated Black6spdZ's tweaks to overclock the video... that might help.

I believe this issue is impacting performance overall, but it is more noticeable during video playback because it is at the same time proces intensive and time-critical.

If there is a way to increase the priority of the video thread, that might solve the problem...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] xdaradar:
Helmi, since you're waiting for some more input: here is some:

website http://pda.buienradar.nl doesn't work

My favorite i.e. homepage. Walking the dog, driving my motorcycle to work, etc. This free weathersite tell's me in realtime the rainactivity in a moving picture. It doesn't work on the AKU 3.0 ROM, it worked on tuma's 1.3 ROM, so on WM5. After a 80K download i get a white empty screen.

I now installed the mini firefox i.e. minimo as an altertative browser and then it works fine. So it has to be something in PIE i think.

Is this just on my PDA?

MMS delivery report always on

Could you find a way to set this always on, just as in SMS.

Has nothing to do with your ROM in specific, but would be nice.

Contacts with a notes-field are invisible on a WM5 ROM

On my windows-xp PC and outlook2003 i have several contacts with data in the free-format notes field. This was no problem on wm2003 and activesync 3.1

Now all those contacts are not visible on the pda. If I update a notefield op the pc, i can see that activesync on the pda wil sync 1 of 1 contacts. But scrolling my contacts on the pda, this one will stay invisible.

Weird and not specific to your ROM, just curious if i'm the only one with this issue.

Flash profile on incoming call

I know it's not a incorporated feature, but would it be possible to make a option where the pda flashes on an incoming call, just as it would on an incoming SMS?

2. GPRS works fine

3. WIFI ( only works when you enable WIFI trough Wireless manager once, when you reboot you must perform the same actions for wifi to work trough comm manager)

4.Sound control (works fine, but there is one option missing(disable sounds and vibration aka. off option) this might be nissing function in comm manager by default)

I think it will be a good while before it happens, especially at the same speed as the devices that already run WM5. It's nice to see but the speed and compatibility is just out of the reach. Just stating my opinion on the matter of using multiple roms at the same time running and benchmarking to test the speeds against WM2003se.

Unfornately with all the hard work and people uniting globally (which we need more of) these roms are still less than 45% of the speed that WM2003se offers.
