To add Disconnect button and a timer display showing how long GPRS is in use for the session:

HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 16 (DWORD decimal)

To have only Disconnect button:

HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 8 (DWORD decimal)

To disable both the Disconnect button and the timer:

HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 0 (DWORD decimal)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] austinsnyc:
you will notice that like I mentioned before even if you change the reg with those settings uf you have connection to stay always on the timer will not show. the disconnect button will but no damn timer
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
well if connections set to always on a timer is somewhat irrelevant no?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
I never set that. ActiveSync will keep it up if you're using push mail. I like the timer because it's one way to evaluate (albeit subjectively) how effective a particular radio ROM is.

@CUSTEL: Thanks. Good god, I would've never found those on my own. Some of them are so obivous, but that one sure as hell isn't... lol :rolleyes:

Audio Manager supports AAC music files, but doesnt recognize the .m4a files created by itunes... if I change the extension to .aac the player add to the playlist and play it! so, anyone knows a way to edit something somewhere to make audiomanager recognize theses files? rename all my 563 songs is a bit hard to do (and i'm not that lazy...), if theres another way...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Acuum2:
file renamer, would make that rename job quite simple

its free, and very handy.

http://www.1-4a.com/rename/

you set a string to convert from and two, and it does the conversion on any files within a dir.

(you can set it to look at file name, file name + extension or just extension.)

Hi Custel! Glad to see you're still active in this forum. I've been waiting the whole week for the BBConnect version of Custel 2.5 to be up. Any word? I know it says in your previous post that its uploading but I still can't see it in the changes on your 1st post. Sorry, but I'm breathlessly awaiting your ROM.

Custel, I am having issues with BT, seems to be the newer builds. I can turn on BT and it is recognized. It is set to hands free, when I go to use it for outgoing calls the headset recognizes the phone as a hear a beep and a little static but nothing comes through. If I close my boom (turn off headset) and open right away I get my full volume and I can hear the phone conversation. I am using an motorola HS850 headset, the rest of my info is in my signature. If you or shadowmite have any ideas that would be great.

I have tried to SR, HR, use HT tweak and turn off one thing at a time in the comms tab for BT, nothing seems to work.

I installed custels cingular version as advised on mrvanx site. Everything went well and its working as a pda and phone. I cannot get on the internet as I get this message below.

"The answering modem has disconnected. To check your connection settings and change them if needed, tap settings."

I also cannot get on using wifi even though I am disabling the proxy. I have a Treo750 on Cingular and have duplicated the ISP setting exactly but still cannot connect. any ideas?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wildbilll:
I am being cautious. I am preparing to update to this rom, but i tells me I am upgrading from Custel 1.3 to Zule1.1. I downloaded via the link on page 1. I am concerned that it does not say Custel 2.5. Is this file correct or have I downloaded the wrong thing? I searched this thread for this first, but I didn't find a reference to this.

Cingular answering "modem"

I had the same problem earlier today on my Cingular 8525 (before flashing from Black to the latest Custel) and they were apparently having connectivity issues unrelated to the ROM. Try again because its now working for me, though I don't know for how long because I've seen nothing indicating that the problem has been resolved. If you have wifi or can test the Internet via a wired (ActiveSync) connection, that may help you with your initial email sync and other issues until Cingular gets everything fixed.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] franklane:
I would like to add that I can get on the web using wifi. I just continue to get the message below when trying to connect via gprs.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] austinsnyc:
ok people have you read this thread? i believe cingular IE has the prozy hard coded into it there for you have to enable or disable the proxy i forget which one this was talked about for about 10 threads up above please read the whole thread before asking questions about things it makes it alot easier to keep track of the issues

thanks

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] franklane:
Austin I do understand about looking things up. I am sorry if it is posted elsewhere, I just have not found an answer to my particular question. Yes I have disable proxy and been able to get on using wifi but when I re-enable proxy I am unable to get on using cingular gprs. I have tried both ways. Sorry again for possible stupid, already posted questions.

Is voice command on any of these builds?

No, there is a cab to install it, there is no need for it to be included. Check the wiki under CUSTEL's cooked rom's theres a link to the cab.

It would be a full OS, I'm working on gathering all of the language images to do it now, so keep a look out next week :)

Hi, thanks for the awesome ROM CUSTEL it is really sweet, I'm just getting into this and went from Black 2.5 to Black 3.0 to this one.

I've tried searching the forum and threads to no avail, but with both Black 3.0 and your ROM I notice with my Motorola H700 headset that I can hear the other person through it, but they can't hear me.

Have you heard of this before?

Thanks!

I'm not sure if my sig is displaying, but I have an 8525 with At&t/Cingular

@Custel,

I understand BBConnect is one of the two big reason for the hex but it would nice to maintain a non-hexed version of the ROM. I myself prefer the non-hexed because I had a lot of stability issues with the hexed version. Batti seems to cause the device to freeze and issues with the screen going crazy after two or three days of use without a reboot.

Just a thought...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] aih1977:
some ideas on your next verison

I dont know if it is possible but i would like to see some iphone apps like scrolling contacts and slide lock are maybe the new device lock that some just came out with. just an idea that would make your rom unique.:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pello:
You can load iphone cabs on your herms by yourself. there are enough threads here. please keep the rom (and also this thread) CLEAN!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] saeba:
Thanks so much for a great rom! I just got my 8525 after using the 8125 for a year. Good to see an active community around the Hermes :-)!

One item that I haven't seen much of a buzz around that's popular on the Wizard forums is replacement keyboard skins. The one I use (see attachment) came from mUn (attached cab file). Maybe someone will find it useful.

Thanks again!!

OneNote issues...

Problem is in OneNoteSyncDevice.dll (12.0.4518.1014)

If all OneNote files are version 12.0.4518.1010 (which is what you get if you run the cab), delete, rename, and picture taking all work. :)

EDIT: Except when deleting last remaining note, in which case you have to hit New | Done for it to be removed from the list. :rolleyes:

Migrated from Black 2.5 ROM to Custel ROM.

Got HSDPA on Orange in UK on Black, only getting 3G icon on Custel. I have used HTC tweak to turn on HSDPA and still same result ! Havent changed my 1.40 radio stack either :(

Also Voicemail Indicator from network doesn't work on Orange UK - but Black ROM suffered from this and there was a separate cab.

The Custel CAB fix for Comm Manager still doesn't work properly. Turning bluetooth on/off or Wireless doesnt work in it!

Anyone know where I can download black's today theme ? Its named something like WMBE.TSK. It's just a much nicer theme than swirl ?

Oher than teething problems above, Im quite happy with this ROM. It's been quite speedy and no freezes or standby issues.

If you didn't download the cingular version you won't have any connection information. At least that's what I'm assuming, since i use cingular. You have to input this yourself as you found out. it's not a flaw. it's intentional, so that it can be used with any carrier.

Hi

First my best thanks to Custel.

I was reading the thread but there are two things that I miss the fix's.

I flashed the standard version, in comm manager the wifi button doesn't work and I haven't mms messages.

So here can I download the cab's to correct this two bugs?

Thanks everyone :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mike-:

are you talking about the tasks tab? on my cingular it's there and i can add a new modem connection. i can add the mss stuff through messaging new account.

maybe download the cingular version and change the settings to match your carrier?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mike-:
Yep! on the tasks tab... I have the regular version... I'll give a try with the Cingular one. By the way, what is the main differences? Cingular apps are included?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mike-:
Ok... I just installed the Cingular version. I can now set my 3g connection but can't get Pocket IE to browse... Activesync over the 3g connection work without any problem. Is there a proxy setting in the cingular version? If so, where could I remove all proxy stuff?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] austinsnyc:
ok issue with cingular version you need to enable proxy to get pie to work through GPRS\3G

issue with connections tab = custel deleted a file that you need talk to him when he pops back up in the mean time flash to another rom till its fixed since i dont know which file he deleted

look for the cabs for poxie enable and disable in the the windows folder
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mike-:
Ok. I have installed the Cingular version (since can't set gprs connection on the regular). I am not with cingular and would like to know how to remove the IE proxy settings. Is it simple? possible?

I can't find any proxy disable... I only see Restore Proxy and restore Cingular...

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pvs:
Custel,

Well, several weeks after my donation, I FINALLY managed to flash your work last night. I used your Cingular 2.5 Version, Tweaked by Shadowmite (no BB HexEdit), and I am amazed at the speed and memory increase (yes, I enabled File System Cache (at "Auto", "0" :) ) Thank you SO MUCH, Custel & Shadowmite! So far, I am REALLY enjoying it!!!

I've experienced a few of the glitches that have been noted within this thread, have gotten around most of them, and am working on those remaining, while also experimenting with all the new features that are included in the ROM. (WOW!)

I have resisted installing too much, in order to see what the ROM itself has to offer, but due to necessity, I HAVE installed:

Cingular Xpress Mail

Cyberon Voice Dialer

The OneNote cab that's listed on this forum

Your Enable & Restore Proxy cab (and I've disabled Proxy for now ... all OK)

So far, I have also entered my user settings, synced my Contacts , Calendar, and Tasks using ActiveSync 4.5, and added an isp.cingular non-proxied connection.

I've tested Wifi (only briefly, seems OK), SMS Message recieving, making & receiving a phone call, email receipt, and a few other thngs, so far. Once I play with the relatively raw ROM for a while, I'll begin reinstalling my other apps, and of course, I'll let you know if I find any issues. The only (new, I think) things I found are as follows:

First, I find a slight issue when viewing email, where it starts at the bottom of the message and you need to scroll up. Is there any way to make it start at the beginning of the email instead? Am I the only one seeing it?

Second, and it's been noted before with other WM6 ROMS, is a minor annoyance with Xpress Mail, where if you manually try to Send/Receive, you get a pop-up warning that you are "Roaming" and you must hit "OK" to proceed. I've tried to figure it out over the months, but I cannot find any way to disable that message. Other than that, Xpress Mail works fine, including Push Email. But I never experienced this nag-message in either of the two WM5 ROMs I had used (both Cingular, BTW), and was wondering if you or Shadowmite might be able to finally find a way to remove it.

Finally, to those of you who noted that the "7" is missing in the taskbar clock, if you make the registry settings found here:

> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1202836&postcount=18 <

you will find that the clock looks a lot nicer. ;) NOTE that I did not change my own setting for the TBOpt entry, since the one I already had was not a binary value, but I created the string entrys S1159 and S2359, and slightly changed the existing STFmt to "h:mm tM "

(IMPORTANT: Two Extra Spaces at end of string!)

, and this is working great!

Later,

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] neilali:
Believe the message viewing issue of starting at the bottom of the message is related to selecting the tweak "navigate with D-pad" in PIE.

I had the same problem. I got around it by sending an SMS message to my phone with the configuration file for Mail2web. It will then pop up pre-populated and then you can enter your password and save it, and you should be good to go. You can find a link by logging onto OWA via the Internet. Go to "My Email Settings", "Activesync Settings". Select "Send a SMS message with a link to the configuration file". If your in the states, be sure to enter the country code, a "1" before your area code or it'll never make it there.
