Re: SIM and BT

I will look into the voice dial thing.. The sim thing baffles me.. from what i understand i dont believe the rom would affect this.. and no one else reports this problem.. all i can say is weird.. does anyone else have any insight on this?!?!? this bothers me.. i have to know whats causing this, since no one else has reported this problem do you think you could drop by a cingular store and tell them that you think your sim is fried and give them the description of your problem? If a new sim doesnt fix your problem and they charge you for it i would be willing to re-imburse you the cost of the sim...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ckkoba:
Well, I've been using the rom for a day now and have to say I love it! Very stable fast and as my first rom, it rocks. Now time to get it out of beta! :lol:

The only question I have is, how do I get java to work? Or is Java not even installed?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] J-Man5:
Shogumark,

Thanks for this ROM. I would also appreciate it if you could write up a HOW-TO customize your ROM. I am looking to install several other apps into the ROM in addition or versus the ones you have graciously installed for us.

I am looking at CF2 or CF2.1

Pocket Informant 2007

alarmToday

Phone Alarm

Magic Button vs wclose

iSilo

This way I can customize to my hearts content.

J-Man5
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
java was suppose to have been installed.. but something happened.. its on my fix list, i am aware of it already ;)

i have to do some digging on the cingular cabs, i installed the one for java and it didnt work, i also installed the connections and the MMS stuff, however the actual MMS connection didnt seem to make it.. So its on my list, and glad you like it!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
This ROM already has netCF2 on it.. and i will look into those other programs, are they all freeware programs?? What i plan on doing with the final version is making a GUI installer that will allow you to install what you want instead of it all installing initially.. that is the current hold up..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kaluman:
It is a very nice and fast rom however I am also having problems with voice dialing. It will not work with ms voice command or speed dial even when set with voice enable just brings up the phone dialer.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
can someone point me in the direction for MS voice command?!? im at work and dont have time to search, and i dont use it either, but will play around with it tonight and see what i can come up with
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] J-Man5:
The only one that is a freeware is Magic Button. I have attached it's cab to this post. The others are programs I use.

Pocket Informant - PIM replacement for WM Calendar/Contact manager/Notes Mgr.

iSilo - very good cross platform reader.

PhoneAlarm - good phone profile manager.

alarmToday - allows one to set phone to silent but still be used for Scheduled alarms that will actually ring.

I have a couple of other programs I use to like:

TimeTracker MX2 for billing and time keeping for client projects.

Also Microsoft Reader.

StopTime - A good freeware stopwatch.

Kasmi Orionic - Star Map. Freeware.

PocketPutty - Freeware edition.

NewsBreak - Good RSS Application reader.

Pocket Streets - Mapping ala Microsoft.

Most of my programs are Payware. Thats why I want to Create my own OS ROM not Ext ROM. This way most of these are in the Program Memory versus Storage Memory. I use most of my Storage memory with the 5000+ emails I have on my PDA. Yes I really sync all of them. Plus all my contacts and calendar items. So memory is a precious thing to have.

J-Man5

** edit ** forgot to attach Magic Button.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
HOLY SH!T 5000 emails... and i will look at those!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] J-Man5:
I've also got almost a 1000 contacts in my setup. I do this all via Exchange ActiveSync. Thank goddness for push email. I really wish manufacturers realized that some of us would appreciate about 512MB of Flash ROM or even MORE!!!! Sometimes I think the HTC people troll boards like this and Howard Forums.

I can't even guess how many calendar items I have. It takes a couple of hours for me to resync after setting up a new ROM or doing a hardreset.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
well the today screen does time out after a certain amount of time, which could cause your time to stop updating... i also think.. which i am not certain, but think when you power off the display or it goes into standby i stops refreshing until you bring it out of standby...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hubono:
true that.

phone sleeps, forgets, then wakes up, checks time :p

This complaint came up frequently a few months back when summiter and others were releasing a bunch of new ROMs... couldn't find many references to it, but didn't search that long. Try this link...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=272385&highlight=wizard+upgrade+battery+life

I seem to recall its something about the battery meter not calibrated to measuring the battery correctly--it doesn't know how "much" battery is there, so when the charge drops a little, it initially overestimates the percentage drop until it is drained a few times and self-calibrates. You have to let the device drain until it shuts down for the device to recognize the limits of the battery.

I don't claim to fully understand this, just that this was the advice given previously and I'm passing it on to help you out. Good luck.

can someone please list everything that comes on this rom?

AND do i have to unlock my 8125 to use this?

ANY help with ROM stuff would be greatly appreciated as i am a complete and total nub to ROMs. Thanks.

Hello,

For some odd reason my 8125 phone keeps turning off and back on. It does it more when I try to use edge. Can anyone advice?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] guyver2077:
I think i may have noticed this clock problem a few times. Its really not a big deal as the time updates quickly.

My data seems slow as well. I think it may have been faster before i upgraded. Besides these two things this build has been solid.

Besides the data/edge prob (if it is even a prob).. ive noticed improvement in everything else. Even when connected via activesync.. the files tranfer allot faster now.. Wifi works better then ever and picks up signals quickly.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
i will try to get you a complete list... as nothing is installed, but there is a installer in there that lets you choose different programs to install, since i am not running this rom right now and working on a new one i cant fully remember what all was in there
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
What rom are you using? you are the first to have this problem if its mine. what 3rd party programs do you have installed?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
cingular sucks.. have you added the open dns settings to your device on the myisp connection? opendns.com

this has been covered on many threads and on here several times.. but im positive this will solve your slow problem
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] anothersmith:
Here is what's in the awesome Ext_Rom Installer. Thanks again Shogun and pals, i appreciate your time and effort to benefit others.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
Thanks for posting that... Faria has been working very hard on this next private beta.. hopefully this will be the last beta and i can release something for the general public!!!

Also i wanted to note that i will be accepting some new beta testers... some of mine are M.I.A. and cant follow simple instructions... So if you want to be included in this next test please *PM* me with your email address, and your IPL/SPL numbers (basically i just need to know if its G3 or G4)

Anyone who makes a post on this thread requesting to test and not a PM will NOT BE CONSIDERED

Calender appointments ??

Tried your Rom today.

SO far so good :)

Only one question

Has anyone had a problem with the appointments not transfering from outlook 2003 or have I got something set wrong.

I am not talking just not showing up on the today screen I mean they are GONE in the calender but I have them in outlook :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
i havent heard anyone report this issue.. but make sure they are set to sync from active sync...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] latin_racer:
Hello.

Problem started when I used the following rom.

NEW Custom 2.26 ROM with CF2-SP1 Flash7 Java Rings Themes...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=276700

So I downgraded to the offcial i-mate rom. I then upgraded to your rom. Which I love by the way.

Here is what it's showing now.

IPL: 2.16

SPL: 2.16

GSM: 02.25.11

OS: 2.26.10.2

I just notice that the phone will turn off and back on when the battery is around 18% or less. It will keep doing this as a cycle. Any advise?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
uhhhh.. ummm... charge your battery, lol... seriously, that is a strange issue... you got me on that one... im not even sure what would cause that...

however i have an idea...

Does anyone know at what battery level the low battery alert comes on?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
have seen some posts on other roms where people were having issues and it seems that if you do a hard reset then flash your phone it could solve your problem... its something i usually do anyway... just to be on the safe side, but its worth a shot
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] latin_racer:
I'm calibrating the battery now. I'm going to let it drain all the way and then do a full charge.

I'm doing this because the battery drains so fast. Hopefully it will fix my issues. I'll let you know how it goes.

Thanks for all the hard work. So far this is the best organized and fast rom.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] shogunmark:
I have selected my testers for this round.. when i work out this one little bug with faria i will be sending everyone who PM'd me correctly an email... i will not post a list of who is testing.. you will just have to watch your email.. also add my email address so it doesnt get caught up by your spam filter shogunmarkATmail2webDOTcom (i hope you can figure that out.. didnt want it to get nabbed by web bots)

By the way.. everyone is in for a REAL treat with this one.. Everyone should bow down to faria, lol!!!! without him everyone would have abandon me by now, ha ha ha

ok, take this file i uploaded it, extract these components to a new folder. Then go to the folder you created for my rom and copy the nk.nbf file and paste it into this new folder and run the update utility.. its foreign, but for G4, if you have problems reading the foreign language the help me is in english and has screen shots

You know i see you post something new for the G4 and get excited. I tried it with the CingularUnhappyWife ROM and no go. It completes but phone sits at RGB screen.

Where did the updated COmmunications Manager come from?

I really like the updated Comm Manager in your latest public beta--was this something you added extra or did it come from a ROM somewhere? Its much nicer than previous versions...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] faria:
it came in the rom.

ps

rom update

we are working very hard in the next release as we speak, we will have news soon.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cptcafne:
Ok so I tried this on my G4 device, and it flashed, but it does not look like I got the extended rom loaded. I have none of the other applications you mentioned in your first post. but at least it flashed.

Appointment Sync

Yep everything is set to sync but nothing.

Plus for some reason I have have a horrible time with random resets.

So I reloaded my older 2.25 Cingular Rom.

Maybe it was some of my tweaks are not compatible with your rom ?

Dono :)

But when the new one comes out I will give it a try :)

Touchscreen Problems

I just upgraded to this ROM, it's works as advertised. good speed and all, however my touchscreen no longer works in landscape mode, any ideas? I will try a hard re-set and re-flash. Search on this forum gave me no clues on the touchscreen problem, maybe my G3 8125 has hit the floor one to many times.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Dr Puttingham:
The fact thatyou posted this message to numerous threads it makes it really difficult! The ROM's not "fu%%'ed up" as you stated in my Near Brick thread. I suggest that you get more knowledge before you start flashing ROM's or one day you're bound to "brick" your device!

Just a word of advice is all!

Good luck!

I've been watching my MEMORY --> PROGRAM, and it keeps shrinking as the minutes go by. At some point in the day, I have to reset my device and the PROGRAM MEMORY goes back to around 20MB. When it hits 1MB my device will ask me to close some apps and hang... and at that point i have to restart the device.

What is this PROGRAM MEMORY (START --> SETTING --> MEMORY --> Program (on the right hand side of the menu)) for?

I especially noticing the rapid decline of the memory when i installed Yahoo Go!

the ipl/spl is wrong.. my roms did not include an ipl/spl (i didnt want g4 owners to brick their phone), you will need to flash an official rom then flash my rom, then you will be good to go.

Any help?

I have read this entire thread over time but I'm a noob and don't always know if what I'm reading applies to me at the time that I read it. I don't remember seeing my question addressed in my reading. That being said, I didn't know until recently that with my setup I wouldn't be able to use AVRCP. Will this ROM be using the Microsoft BT Stack or the Widcomm stack. I'm hoping that it's the Widcomm Stack. I've bought Pocket Player 3.0 and currently use MortPlayer. To be able to use AVRCP I understand that I need the Widcomm Stack. Curses on Bill Gates.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kingpongg:
Not quite true. I use pocket player 3 with the MS BT stack without issue. You will just need the WMP plugin found on their site: http://www.conduits.com/products/player/plugins.asp

To answer your question about which BT stack is on the ROM, I don't know but i suspect MS.
