Problem with battery and cpu process

Hello Faria and team,

Faria after installing Xplore1.1 I tried your ROM and it looks too good better then others (i tried MB,Xplore,and PDAmobilez Xplorer final versions) thanks for such a nice ROM and article for cooking ROM.

But strange problem:- my CPU usage is not coming down from 21%, the same problem i faced with Xplorer1.1, but old 'the real thing' works great for me.

Also when i view Extended_ROM from GSFinder+ it is showing me strange characters for folders and files.

Also battery is draining very fast i applied 3 patches from forum for wm6 battery but no luck may be cpu process is eating up the battery.:(

Anybody know why cpu process is stuck at 21% and not coming down ? There are no extra processes in TaskManager.

WifiTray.exe

ScreenRotateTray.exe

PowerTray.exe

CapNotify.exe

poutlook.exe

smartkey.exe

cprog.exe

connmgr.exe

services.exe

shell32.exe

gwes.exe

device.exe

filesys.ee

NK.EXE

Any suggestion is most welcome and thanks in advance,

Regards,

Babar Shafiq Nazmi

When you say you chnage the option.xml, which one and what did you do? I dont think that would have made the error, but best to say everything to solve the problem
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] ClassicalDonkey:
1. Are you using the bare rom? What have you installed since putting the rom on your PPC. Looking at your list, you should not be getting 21% CPU, What program are you using to see this?

2. If you get lots of crap when you view the Extended_rom, means it has be corrupted some how, that happens to me if when it auto starts after hard reset, and it gets stuck and I have to soft reset the PPC. You need to flash a new one! you can reflash with a Operator rom which has a Extended_rom, or look for faria Extended_rom guild, which shows you have to make your own.

If you would like to get sorted now, I would say try a hard re-set, or re-flash to see if you have the problem again.

If after re-flash, you still get it, you problem may not be the rom but something different. I do not have this problem, and i have not seen anyone say they have too, so sorry its like i am passig the buck.!!!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] edhaas:
Your extended_rom is corrupted, and you are seeing the typical symptoms. The easy remedy is to flash with a "stock" rom which includes an extended rom. I can suggest the t-mobile 2.26 rom for instance. Then reflash with the kitchen. Should take care of it.

in the second post of this thread faria says to replace to option.xml file with the original one in the SYS folder. after that I cooked my rom, checked the OS box nb2nbf tool and then flashed my phone. that's all I did.

cpu process problem

Hello funman and edhaas,

1. I am using cooked ROM as described in the faria's article. i just installed PIMbackup tool and batterystatus today plugin (new beta version) and nothing else.

2. Yes i can see many folders comes with Xplorer1.1 and they are still visible after installing Faria's ROM, i did the hard reset but old folders and Strange characters are still showing, may be due to Faria's ROM is not using Extended ROM and it is still showing old Xplorer extended ROM files.

Problem starts from Final version of Xplore from hong (PDAmobilez), after that i m not able to resolve the cpu process thing.

I will try edhaas's suggestion to flash back with t-mobile ROM (with extended ROM) and update you guys.

Thanks and Best Regards,

Babar Shafiq Nazmi.

I am not having a go at you ok mate, Just using you as an example.

Can people please check that something has not already been replied to!!! Just above my post i had already said that same thing, getting the same replies a million times, only makes a million pages!!! Lets post smart, so we don't have a million posts coving the same stuff.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] ClassicalDonkey:
Ok that is strange!!! Mmmmm I dont know why you would have problems, as it sounds like you have not chnage anythig apart from what you were told to chnage!!!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] psybill:
When I go home, I'll start from the beginning. I will recreate the rom file and I will check all the boxes as I can see in your pdf file. I hope to better luck this time
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] ClassicalDonkey:
There is no point in you try that, cus it was just to show what boxes to use!!! If you click all the boxes it will just give you an error message saying you have not selected the files for each box!

cpu process problem

Hi,

Just installed t-mobile 2.26 and it looks, problem is solved now, cpu processor is showing 2-4% So i installed Faria's Rom again and it is also working and working good,

But new problem :confused: when i upgrade Radio Rom to 2.69.11 my phone is not starting, stuck at splash screen :( may be new radio rom needs new ipl-spl version and i missed that, now what to do ? how to recover from radio rom upgrade ?

Thanks,

Babar Shafiq Nazmi.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] ClassicalDonkey:
Dont worry, you just need to flash the radio again, press reset and hold the comm button, you should get the rainbow screen and then you connect up and flash it again. I would say ya upgrade youR IPL/SPL (ADDED THE LINK ABOVE IN ONE OF MY POSTS), but it is not needed to use the Rom.

If you dont load up again I would say go back to 2.19, get it working then try the flashing the radio again
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] babarnazmi:
thanks funman

funman thansk a lot, now all ok, no cpu eating and battery problem now, it looks it was extended_rom issue and no concern with faria's new ROM, all looks good so far.

Thanks to you guys

And faria for such a nice ROM

Hi faria

and funman.

I know it'll work flawless and i could flash OS.nb only by pdocwrite not by Prophets RUU( in past my device could never booted with custom roms, however it flashed 100% with RUU)

But thats not the prob for me.

Major concern r:

1)how can i change default Rom in RK ?

2)if i use Faria's default , what changes to be made to work on prophet

BTW i flash Faria's one on my prophet and hence i encountered

a)camera not working

b)battery unknown, hence no charging, no usb charging.

c) No sound, everywhere silent.

d)buttons not wrking properly

e)i could not got in Bootloader(:eek:

f)......................no:eek: :eek:

g).....................rescue by pdocwrite+AKU2.2

Help to answer above 2 problems

stuck at crosbow screen

Hi,

After resetting to T-Mobile 2.26 RRU and reinstalling Latest Faria's cooked rom now my phone is stucking at crosbow splash screen, when i reset to factory default it start working but at reboot stuck again, It looks it is due to radio rom or ipl-spl or what please suggest.

My procedure, I installed 3.08 ipl/spl and then radio rom 2.69.11 in T-mobile RRU ROM (2.26) and then installed Faria's rom but with same result, after number of tries i m totally lost now :(

Whats the correct procedure ? after installing RRU version what steps are needed to install custom ROM ?

My hardware is G3, CPU OMAP 850, 195 Mhz.

IPL/SPL 3.08, Radio ROM 2.69.11

Please help....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
I would suggest you flast back to the official Tmobile 2.26 rom to get a completely clean base. Then try flashing the Faria one. After that you can change the Radio if you want.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] babarnazmi:
Hi,

I installed official Tmobile 2.26 rom, anybody confirm I need unlocking tools again ? may be extended rom is locked coz of official release ????

It worked for me....

After my tenth or so flash, I forgot to change the "option.xml" file everything was fine except the Irda. So I left it (have never used it). But it started bugging me. SO I used the regkeys (for the ten button Comm Manager) from the PDF and created a reg file, and then imported it. So I got a ten button Comm Manager, but still no IrDA. Installed the Donkey.cab and presto IT WORKS!! If you want to use reg key, DON'T FORGET TO DELETE THE ".TXT" FROM THE END OF THE NAME.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] edhaas:

I read this on the Window Mobile Team blog:

How is Internet Sharing better?

ICS is superior to the modem link technology in several ways.

1) Usability: With Modem Link, users need to enter dial strings (e.g. *99#) to connect their PC to the Internet. This is not necessary with Internet Sharing.

2) Uninterrupted connectivity: ICS can continue to be connected when you get an incoming voice call. Modem Link will give up the cellular radio for the phone to answer the voice call. Internet Sharing will stay connected in this scenario. On some cellular networks it is not able to send or receive data. The cellular network needs to support simultaneous voice/data to provide the best user experience. This is supported on 3G networks.

3) Full connectivity: When you are connected over ICS, the applications on your device (e.g. ActiveSync) remain connected to the Internet. This is not the case with Modem Link.

This sounds suspiciously to me like what is happening with wm6 and all the missed calls on Cingular. I have tried every rom and every radio and my calls go to voicemail if gprs is connected to get email, pocketweather updates, ie sessions etc. I know that Cingular Edge does not support simultaneous connections of voice calls and data. With the old roms, the voice call would take precedence and the data would resume after the call.

The reason I post this in this thread is my question. I used this kitchen before and it is awesome. However, I'm a little unclear about one thing: Can I just delete the internet sharing files from oem/oemmisc to flash a rom clean of internet sharing to test my theory?

Thanks

Is that what you are talking about. If so, yeah I have an issue with the wifi. It wont turn on. I press it and it just goes for like half a second then does nothing.

Tried soft resetting and reflashing once already.

I returned to my official qtek rom and then flashed faria's rom again. I also update my radio to 2.19. My wizard seems to work fine, so I will start installing apps one by one to check if any of them caused the problem.

@all

if any anybody has a ready oem package for Cyberon speed dial please pm me!! I want to add it in my rom.

I installed it in my device but I can't make it work with my headset. I also changed some reg keys, but when I press the bt button only the phone pad opens

OMAP/Battery Status/Sys Tray??

Ok, I thought I was getting pretty good at this ROM game, read every page, printed the PDF (great job by the way), etc etc. So I cooked up the ROM, backed down my Wizard to T-Moble 2.26 and Flashed in the new Faria. Now let me make a point here, I DIDNT WANT to do this! I really like the Real Thing ROM, but I need one fix from this verison, the DRM stuff. And I'm hopping that my BT issues will go away as well, but I digress... The ROM flashed fine no 99% issues, so after restart I restore my back up file and get a message that one of the systray apps cant load, then i noticed that the battery status icon doesnt work either. So.. I suspect that the ver of OMAP in this build is not the same as the Real Thing or I didnt select the correct package from the BuildOS table.

Any of you super talented people have any advise for me?

My Wizard just finished reflashing Real Thing...

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Russ
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Define "back up file"... Are you talking like a Spb backup, or SKtools backup (or similar)??? NEVER (let me say that again... NEVER) restore a backup from one rom to another. You are asking for nothing but problems when you do this. Most of the backup utilities backup system settings (so registry and more) and each rom is a little different in what is and isn't there. When you put in registry settings (or take out settings that are in the new rom that weren't in the old) you have no guarentee that anything will work.

I see two choices for you... 1) Hard Reset and start over. 2) Reflash and start over. Either way, do NOT use your backup from "the real thing" rom (you can use the selective or custom restore on the backup by choosing not to restore system information since this is WM6 to WM6, but this is why I now mainly just use PIM Backup to get most of the files I want / need, and I keep all of my My Documents and stuff on my storage card (so it isn't wiped).

Hum... Telco config too...

So now that my toy has rebooted on RT, I noticed something else; the telco configuration script isn't in the kitchen version either. Again, I am not being critical or looking for the perfect ROM, I know I must have missed something in the build process so I am looking for a little advice to get me on track.

thanks

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Russ741:
Ok so Back up BAAAAAADDDDDDD

Yes, I'm using Sbpback up, I was thinking that since they are both Faria and both WM6 and both based on the same ROM that a full reg backup would work. I guess not.

I will try backing up my apps only and re-flash with a kitchen ROM.

So, to my original question... is the Ver of OMAP the same in both Faria ROMs?

BTW... is there a way to save the kitchen ROM after cooking or should I cook a new one each time?

keyboard skinning

Is there a way to skin the keyboard without re-flashing the rom?

Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Nope, I know people that did this between Xplore 1.0 and Xplore 1.1 and it caused all sorts of problems for them (weird stuff that nobody else had issues with).

No idea (sorry) I never used "the real thing" much.

Under your devwiz directory there is a directory called flashrom. That is your new rom flashing area. You can make a copy of that (if you want to save it) or just go directly to it and run the rom upgrade utility exe found in there to flash your rom. You do NOT have to re-cook each time (only do that if you are going to make changes, IMO).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Yeah, this can be done with a cab file, it just won't be "built-in" to the rom. You have to recook it if you want it built-in. Otherwise, just run the cab file. For instance I run the mUn Keyboard file after I reflash my cooked rom so I get that skinned keyboard. I now see the XPlore 2.0 has a new keyboard skin also (but I think I still prefer the mUn one with the green keys that stand out to me).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] zakhir_n:
Thanks. I really like the xPlore keyboard because I use the black skin so I tried copying the xPlore file into my Windows directory, and then did a soft re-reset but the keyboard skin did not change. The msim.dll.0409.mui does not seem to be in the windows folder. From what I have read, it needs to over-write the current file in order to work. The xPlore keyboard doesn't have a cab file so I cannot install it that way. Any other suggestions? Thanks again!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Russ741:
Thanks Mfrazzz...

Do you have a list of what apps are in the various packages in the BuildOS table?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
I don't have a list off hand. The 4th post of this thread, Faria lists everything in the rom / kitchen. You can open up the various folders under the OEM directory and see the executables that will be moved to your phone and get an idea of what apps are included with each "package".

Cool. FWIW: I just deleted your .dsm fiile and created a blank file called 'package.rgu'. Then ran the buildos.exe by hand and clicked on the green arrow to have it process. When it finishes, I have a new .rgu and .dsm with unique GUID (very simple :). I also created another package for the XPlore keyboard too. The buildos.exe doesn't like that there are two packages that have the same filename in them though, but it still created the GUID for each.

Thanks. I just tested it and it does work (the one you fixed). I'll go back to the mUn one though as I prefer the color instead of all black and gray.
