Helmi:

Your new ROM Rocks. It seems very stable. I absolutely love the options you've put in this ROM. I love the look and feel of it. I've put my Wizard back on the shelf and started using the BA again (I wish you made a 3.something AKU for the Wizard too).

Wifi and BT connectivity is definitely improved. Once in a while, I do have to soft reset the unit to use either WiFi or BT. But most of the time I don't.

To the guys who want to use smart dialing, I'd say invest in Voice Command 1.6 and bag smart dial. It's a little slow starting sometimes, but makes driving and talking much safer.

Some have also stated that they want a program which actually shuts down programs when they are closed. I actually prefer the way you've done it in your ROM. That is you have the "Running Programs" in the Windows Start Menu. This makes it easy to close all programs with just two clicks (screen taps). Sometimes its better to leave two or more programs running at the same time if one is moving back and forth between the two.

I've had some problems pairing my I-Phone 450 stereo headset to the ROM. It does pair but must be repaired each use. Also, I notice that the range is much diminished from when I used the same stereo headset with the broadcom BT software with WM 2003.

Thank you so much and please have a happy New Year.

SmartDialing

That's not fair mate. :-) Thanks for the thought, but I love it and wouldn't ditch it for VoiceCommand.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Mr. Zah:
Use Ezdial instead for smart dialing

For the guys that still asks about smart dialing, voice commander is not a program I will use for this, for me most of the time it does not recorgnize anything, stupid program :) I use EZdial, it is fast and works great on this rom.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] rambo6:
Please don't take offense. It was narrow minded of me to think that Voice Command works for everyone, especially when one's native tounge is not English. I tried Smart Dialing a few times on my Wizard and felt it was a waste of screen space. For some, it is a very useful tool.

Hi Helmi,

Really appreciate your time to come out with this vanilla version. In fact, sort of feeling bad to keep nagging you for it. I'm downloading now and hope to test it as soon as possible but got some painting to do. So most likely, can only test it tomorrow.

Thanks.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] mr_ding:
I tried the Vanilla version and it's working great for me.

Have switched from Xplode 3.5 -> Helmi 3.5 Vanilla.

BTW, I don't see CreateOS.exe and CreateROM.bat in zip file (mentioned in Kitchen_note.txt). Is it because Helmi pre-cooked it?

Currently my SIM is blocked (messing/testing how security PIN works), will have to wait til tomorrow until Rogers AT&T Tech Support open tomorrow to get PUK to unlock it. Unless, there's a way to do it myself.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] blackflagsvn:
Me too! Downloaded, extracted, read the kitchen note but there is no clue of CreateOS.exe and CreateROM.bat in the packed rar. Did you forget to pack them up Helmi?

Anyway, what's kind of this version? You mean it's a absolutely clean ROM?

Some Questions

Hi Helmi,

just flashed your rom, and seems to be great, as usual.

Got few questions though:

1. Battery icon is not animated ie it doesnt show the true capacity of battery. I am on 66% now, and the battery icon still shows full. Is it meant to be this way?

2. Do I need to install other patches such as power management fix, apart from your recommended ones (standarise, fix1)?

4. How do I delete default icons from the tray? eg. I want to remove the battery icon...

All in all, these are minor issues for me.

I guess to make it perfect, there are 2 issues left:

1. voice command on bt headset issue

2. keeping bt connection alive without BA turning on randomly issue

Thats all, and as usual, very happy with your rom
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] oelapoel:
RingTone cant be changed

I tried to change ring tone, but it keeps going back to Windows default.

Anyone else have this issue?

Edit: Moved the file to \windows\rings\ folder seems to solve the issue
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] wzaatar:
None taken, no worries on that... And you perfectly hit the point: Although I do speak english, the software doesn't like my intonations nor does it take into account that some people's names are not written in English :-)

slowdown...

i'm having a massive slowdown in my BA in my last two days of use. it takes too long to input, call, end a call, etc. does anyone else experience this?

i tried to use remove ram and cleanup of sktools, and removed several programs, but it doesn't seem to solve the problem. any help would be appreciated.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] kerio:
No the patches are for 1.3.2 version since this is 1.4 you shall not install them (only useful thing could be FAQ).

You can remove the battery icon - USE SEARCH FOR OTHERS!

Remove the Battery Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power]
"ShowIcon"=dword:00000000

Hi Helmi,

Going to flash with your vanilla version soon. Just got a few questions that hope you could shade some light on:

1. For the extrom from 1.4 non vanilla version, in the cfg.txt, you have theste cabs, MFCRuntime_WWE.cab and WapPushUnlock.cab. Are these caps absolutely required even for vanilla version?

2. I noticed that in different versions since AKU 2.6, the Extrom_version.cab size is different. What is actually inside these cabs? Are the extra apps (clear storage, internet sharing, phm registry, etc.) from non-vanilla version inside this cab? I believe these apps should be in the nk.nbf instead of in this cab. I will proceed with the extrom_version.cab from 1.4 non vanilla version first.

3. I did see a nk.nbf file in the rar. Your kitchen_note.txt mentioned that I need to build my own rom with createOS.exe and CreateROM.bat. I am thinking that the nk.nbf in the rar is the vanilla version rom. Sorry if this question sounded silly.

Thanks.

solution to activesync internet passthrough problem...

On your desktop computer...

Go to Start > Run and type "regedit"

then add this dword to the following location...

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]

"AllowLSP"=dword:0

I guess there is some new way of connecting with activesync v4.2 and this registry edit makes activesync use the old method that was used in v4.1. Made my internet passthrough work perfectly on the next sync... Good luck to ya.

Hi Helmi,

A2DP works great. I was able to run media player and run mapking 7 together, when I managed to get BT to power on. I also had difficulty to power on BT. Intermitently, I was able to get it started. I went back to my old tricks to disable power_service.dll, screenrotate_service.dll and ircomm.dll before I could get consistent BT to power up. Still, GPSProxy (needed to run Garmin Que) was also inconsistently able to power on. When I was using

Xplode's AKU 3.3 rom, I did not need to play around like the above to get BT power on and GPSProxy to start up.

Is it possible not to do the following for the vanilla rom or could you advise me how to cook my own diveritive rom:

1. To remove Internet Sharing and Modem Link from nk.nbf and have the cabs to install

from extrom

2. Is it possible for power_service.dll and screenrotate_service.dl not to be installed as service?

3. Noticed that stk_service.dll, Remotekit.dll and mix.dll are missing from \windows directory, thus not loaded. Are they important?

4. I used taskmanager to unload ircomm.dll. After that, I could not set it back

to load automatically again.

5. pmsnserver.exe was loaded but after I disable ircomm.dll and power_service.dll, it seem not to be loaded

Added after further testing:

It seems that for me to run reliably, zero Today Plug-in and don't use MS VC 1.6. In the testing above, I was using Phone Dashboard Today Plug-in and MS VC 1.6. Intermitently, GPSProxy will run even now but at least, BT power on and Wifi Power on together is not a problem any more. I'm going to try Franson GPSGate and see if it works for me.

Thank you.

Bluetooth "wake up"

Does this ROM still have the bluetooth "wake up" issue that some of the older WM5 Roms had? (when BT is on, the screen will randomly come on)

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] suggsjc:
I know everyone has their own priorities, but for me that is the biggest annoyance with the WM5 Roms. It has been a while since I have tried to help out with any ROMs, so does anyone know off the top of their head if there are people working on a fix for this? I would be willing to help as I find this to be more important than having the latest and greatest...in fact, I don't see how anyone can say these ROMs are stable or anything beyond beta without that being fixed.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Mr. Zah:
BT wake up

I agree with you, it is very annoying, and I use my BT headset a alot.This is a side effect of the big Mike fix for the BT to stay alive in standby mode. Unfortunantley I dont think that there is anybody working on a proper fix for this issue. I have also problems with turning the BT, sometimes I MUST do a softreset, and this annoys me too. This is also valid for WIFI, however I dont care about WIFI because I dont use it that much. And I guess that why all the roms out here are BETA version, and I dont think that there will ever be a final version with these problems. Therefore I am trying to live with these problems until I smash my BA to peaces or buy a new PDA/Phone that have original WM5.

Hey guys,

Since i installed the 3.2 helmi i had this annoying wifi issue, it was loading wayyy to long and that really piss me off so i went back to wm2003.

I was just checking up on whats new and i realise another Helmi is out so i tried the rom and i must say the rom is excellent, but i'm still having a problem with the wifi issue. I believe its moving a little quicker than before because some times it wasn't working

I'll give more detail.

When i type in a address and click the green arrow it says "locating site".

It takes about 3-4 mins or so to find the site and the downloading begins. I've seen an improvment in the downloading when i compare it with the 3.2 Hemli ROM. When the download begins it moves much quicker!

Thats the main problem i`ve witness so far, the "locating site" is whats really killing me.

Another thing i realise is that once i'm on a website i can browse the site other pages very quickly but if i leave that server the horror begins for another 3-4 mins.

All in All i've seen a big improvement in the WIFI issue...

Hi Xdaradar,

Like you, I have almost lost my breath and strength trying to find enough resources for GPSProxy to run reliably for me.

So you got GPSgate to work for you. May I know if you are using a USB BT GPS or Garmin BT GPS?

I tried GPSgate last night with my USB BT GPS to set it up so that I can use Garmin Que. During the wizard phase, it detected my USB BT GPS (Rikaline) but it could not detect a Garmin Que GPS (of course can't), and so prompted me to put in the Unit ID later. After I started GPSgate later, I don't know where to look for the opportunity to add in the Unit ID number after going through whatever that is under settings. The closest was for in output to scan for new GPS, but still don't seem to know what to do.

I'm trying to configure GPSgate to run so that I can use my Rikaline with Garmin Que. Hopefully, you are using a USB BT GPS and can advise me how to setup GPSgate to work.

Tried the forum at GPSgate but could not get the right information to do what I want. Thanks.

hmm... definiton of vanila is kinda vary from other, Its kinda confusin sometimes.. but:

Internet sharing is a standar feature of AKU3xx, Modem Link is standar too I agree with u about Power and screen rotate service, but the problem with my ROM is some BT drivers are not module base so it kinda eat more memory, to load, but with fully capability... yes its a tricky choise, but I'll try to hack other device drivers if I hv time...

I've succesfully port some of hima driver (mostly BT stuff) to BA and it seems or should be better BT handling (seems better A2DP distance also), but there still some problem with other function, like vibrate function, etc since I use Himalaya driver, I'll try to test it more hopes end up good... btw can u post ur hima default.hv? I wanna learn that..

U're 100% correct!!... If we able to make it load on reset? we'll be able to turn it on first time... with my Apache Wifi Hacked drivers (Vanila version only) It will make a perfect wifi capability.
