I second the notion.

All fluffy crap removed from the first post... feels like a huge relief - kinda like a good crap after eating too much steak on the 4th of July... :eek:

Nice thread you started. Shal I add the packages to the kitchen as you create them? What kind of test process should we entail?

FYI, I'm pretty sure the base mUn rom had a 10 meg page pool. I can only get 8 to work, 4, 6 and 12 won't register in the memory statistics.

A2DP

Hallo!

Thanx for nice ROM! But before I'll flash it, I want to have 100% guarantee, that A2DP is working fine, because I would like to buy Nokia BH-501 BT stereo headset. I've try it yesterday with Core 2.0n ROM and sound was horrible and with skipping.

So if is here any user,which has tried to use this ROM with any BT stereo headset, please refer me in here. I will grateful!

Thanx in advance. Cheerz
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] h4ck:
ahhh.. okay, i see now. you use that file to build the rom. i did a search for ".nbf" and couldn't come up with anything. cool, thanks!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] inneyeseakay:
I finally bit the bullet and flashed the "MySetup" version to my G3, CID-Unlocked, Wiza100 and I can vouch that A2DP is working... and working great. Much better than the sound I was getting with Core2.0n. I am using a SouthWing SA505 Stereo Headset and got great results!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] inneyeseakay:
Quick question though... Why does the clock in my "start bar" disappear when I am not on the Today screen?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] alternativ:
Hi.

Go to Clock and alarms and on the 3th page, there is Display the clock on the title bar in all programs...mark it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
There's a clock option to show in all programs. I think in settings/clock you can click a checkbox to have it show in all. I just set mine last night.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:

I just want to reiterate my thanks to mattk_r for all his work on getting the 5.2.1413 mUn base in good working condition, and to nottoosmart for all his work on pulling together such a nice collection of packages for us to customize with. It represents a great deal of time and effort, and unfortunately most of the time its taken for granted. Thanks for making my life a little more fun!:)

Sincerely,

Tried the new 01.10 version

Running speed is absolutely faster then the old version. Great Job!

Live stuff...forget it, I don't use it now, seems my GSM carrier sucks and never works.

However I noticed a strange freeze on booting (occured 1 time only). Part of the today screen is loading, then it freeze. At that stage, the GSM light is still flashing, with the Wifi light also lighting! Is this ROM/OS try to switch the Wifi on and off upon boot?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
There is a reg setting for restart wifi after reset HKLM-Comm-TNETWLN1-Params-HTCResumeWifiAfterReset. This should be 0.

The other two - PreloadWifi and PreloadStatus should be on 1 if you want your Wifi to start super easy when you push the button in the CommManager. It does eat up some memory, but if you use Wifi alot, it's worth it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Thanks Ed. I've been having a lot of fun today seeing how much stuff I can compress and get to work. I think you've introduced a tool that we're only scratching the surface with it's benefits. I'm glad to see the dev part of the forum is in full motion!

10 meg pagepool?

"My Setup" ROM: does not have 10 meg pagepoool. I check it in XVI32, it has 4 meg pagepool.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
I'm in a bit of wonder with this base rom. I just got a PM from Faria and was told that this rom uses a different hex address (38755A). I checked it and it has the entry 4F (or so I seem to remember). This doesn't follow the old standard of 40, 80, A0, C0, etc... 4 would be a good assumption, but what would be set for say an 8 meg pp? The address 3EC8AE displayed A0, which had this been the correct address were it 10, so I was (and am) still trying to nail down the pagepool issue for this build.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] bachikho:
after a SR, only PreloadWifi = 1, PreloadStatus often return to 0, what's up (using 01.10 quick setup)?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] starkwong:
Me too

An I noticed a problem in IE (maybe some sort of memory settings problem again), IE can only open up to 6 or 7 page, then it will keep Locating or Opening, or load the first 6k of page then stop. Close and start IE again will be able to load 6 to 7 pages again, then the same.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Interesting, because in older versions, I hadn't fixed the wifi bug. However 01.10 should have that fix - because that's what I was running up to a couple days ago.

My latest build using compression doesn't have any trouble connecting to wifi, and I've reset and tried it a dozen times.

I'm going to update "My Setup" in a few hours. It doesn't have that issue.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
This is the first time I've heard of an IE issue like this - but then I don't spend that much time using IE. I'll play around with my current flavor to see if it does it too.

Shelltool probs

I have G4 Wizard and have been flashing this niiiice ROM using Shelltool. Everythings goes ok, I pushed flash ROM and have been waiting for the end of flashing process. Waiting 10 minutes, 15,20,40... and still no message about process end. After one hour I've been very sad and thought about brick... I made a hard reset and system starts absolutely normal. What a surprise :D

I quess, Shelltool didn't know, that flashing process finished. I've tried it twice with same result.

My (maybe funny) question.. which program as default is overclocking my system? Omapclock or Battery status? Thx
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
The shelltool problem is normal on locked G4s. I just wait until the today screen locks up (cursor doens't move up or down) and the hard-reset.

Battery status uses OMAP to overclock. It's an all-in-one setup. Really nice.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] alternativ:
You are not right. I never had a this problem since I'm using WM6, Your ROM is a first. But no problem, I know, that's all right and can do a MR.

Thanx for reply my question!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Sorry, I left off the part about 15.2.1413 having this issue with the G4. I've been using it so long I forget everyone's not using it!

PIE Problem May be Common

Just FYI: I'm running one of NTS's ROMs, and it has exactly the same problem. So, perhaps it's a common problem for WM6 ROMs?...

Most everything is compressed (dll and exe anyway). I'm running this mix now, and it looks really good. I also installed Xpress Mail, Weather To Go, TOPO!, Pocket Streets, Monopoly, Pool, and SmartKey (the OEM pack doesn't seem to work). After it installs, I also removed a bunch from startup such as sddaemon, voice dialer, phone, init_tray, and redial.

I'll post a link this evening when I get home. So far? Really nice.

edit: oh, yeah - 33.7 Storage and 28.0 Program remaining. Not bad considering what's running...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] jakiej:
i've been testing on the 01.10 for a couple of days now, and the battery life is shorter than my last rom. (i emptied the startup folder)

other than this, it is a great rom :--)

i remember reading from somewhere that larger paging pool comsumes more power, and i think 01.10 has a 10M one. so do you have a cooked room with 4M paging pool that i can try? it would be even better for me if the voice commander is built in.

many thanks

-How to active VoIP in your rom Mr.Mattk_r.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
There's a link floating around on how to set up VoIP, though 01.10 doesn't have the core files installed already.

I'm still testing 02.01, which does have it pre-installed. You'll still need to configure it, but at least it's partially ready to go.

If I can locate the thread, I'll post it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Yeah, I'm not too hot on the batter issue right now either. I get great performance right after flashing, but after installing my apps, it seems to run a bit high.

I install everything to the device to prevent excessive SD card access, but it doesn't seem to help.

I'm going to load 02.01 and try it out somewhat raw - that is no work email or other fluffy crap - more of a vanilla rom to get a feel for it. No Live, or VSD, VC or TC. Just a solid PDA/Phone base.

I still think this is a great platform, but it's possible that some applications from older revs are causing the issue - so I'm on a quest to find out which ones...

FYI - I moved all my contacts and voice speed dial entries to the sim/storage card. I'm tired of reloading every time...

Oh, and the compression seems to be working great. I'm going on 6 hours since the last flash (a new record for me...) without it hanging up or glitch of any kind.

Not all, but most.

Amoung several versions I tried, it seems only Underground is OK.

If 01.10.10 really has only 4MB of Page Pool due to the offset/settings value problem, it may explain because the OS version of Underground is old enough (5.2.660)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Just posted a new OEM package in the kitchen thread that has everything compressed, as well as a bunch of new stuff. I'm keeping up the old links though, just in case someone doesn't want to venture too far from solid ground... I'll post a trial mostly vanilla rom if anyone's interested.

What if I want just to install your ROM?

I'm also sorry for a newby question :confused: but what if I just want to install your ROM the way you've created it, without going through the whole customization / kitchen process outlined in the tutorials? What do I do with your nk.nbf file in that case?

Many thanks, and sorry again.

hi, after reseting, my ppc will be ready after the sound "bip" , can I change it ?

I'm using Rom Pandora version 1.10, Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
there are great tutorials that will tell you how to flash your phone with a nk file. You're perfectly welcome to flash one of my finished ones, without going anywhere near the kitchen. You just need to determine what kind of phone you have, and what flashing method works for you (RUU or Shelltool). If you need, I can locate the posts. I'm just trying to get my 02.01 rom build and posted, so I've been a bit busy...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
I'm not sure what sound you're referring to. Did you hard-reset? Once you've hard reset and then gone through the digitizer calibation, there shouldn't be any more sounds unless your ppc is connected via USB, at which point you'll get a sync connection indication. Does it do it with the cable detached?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
Thinking about it, that Wifi fix is possibly the cause of the battery drain. If someone wants (who doesn't use wifi), try changing Status and Preload back to 0 and see if it slows down.

Tomorrow's Appointments

Storage: 44.5

Program: 30.2

FYI it includes my themes... :p

The goal was streamline with some applications(and themse already in place). There's no voice controls - but I'll add them for the full flavor version and remove the today themes.

Those numbers are with batterystatus not in the today screen, and poutlook removed from startup.

Every time I set preload wifi to 0 and soft reset, it is reset to 1. I'll have to build another rom without it set to really try it. I got a good hunch that it's what's causing it...

nope - it is too big in this setup - too many other apps - and I tried to include only things that wouldn't impact battery consumption since this is the target of the beta. I attached the cab for now, but I'll be releasing a "full" version once I establish that this foundation has resolved a few of the lingering issues that's been hindering this build.

Hi.

Today I've been trying Nokia BT stereo headset with this 01.10 ROM in my Wizi. Pairing run normally, but headset profile didn't start and WMP played with phone speaker only. I hadn't this prob with other ROM, for ex. Core 2.0n.

Can anybody advise me? Thanx!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
on 02? Is it because BatterStatus is reporting a high drain, or that your charge % is dropping fast?

I ask that, because haven't installed anything other than a theme and the Cingular WAP cab, and BatteryStatus is reporting 311mA draw with 0-1% CPU utilization.

I'm gonna try installing the BatteryStatus CAB, and see if it changes the reporting. Maybe having it compressed is causing misreporting.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] inneyeseakay:
:eek: How did you manage that???
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
I think I'm starting to figure out what I'm going :rolleyes:

Primarily because everything is installed in the ROM, and it has a small pagepool.

I've had the phone on for the last 1 1/2 hours, and it's said it's pulling 183mA, but it's still at 100%. I'm tempted to reflash with a non-compressed BatteryStatus... I'd really like to put this battery issue to rest.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] inneyeseakay:
What exactly is the pagepool?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
kinda like pagefile on a PC. When an app needs to use "virtual memory" because there isn't enough available physical ram, it writes to the hard drive in this "space".

Limiting this space too much, and running too much stuff can cause a crash.

This type of memory usage is much slower than physical ram, because of read/write times, but it makes up hardware limitations. This is part of the reason why the goal is to get the program memory usage so low - it inherently is faster by keeping it from writing to the pagepool.

This is my own interpretation, anyone please feel free to correct me if I'm way off...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] patek:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
The main change is compression of the OEM applications, office, and a few others are the main points.

Also added additional packages, removed some non-functional ones, and added a couple fixes.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
There's still a debate on the actual page pool size. I don't change the page pool size from the original mUn build - so it's whatever it came as.

If I can ever get supporting data - and the numbers for different sizes, I want to run an 8 meg one since I use bigger apps on mine. But for now, I just look and search...

If you have cabs for these, and after installing them they work, please post them and I'll be happy to add them to the build.

Previously, flash player didn't work, and I don't know anything about the java manager. It would be great if they were to work, since I know they've been an issue for a while...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] patek:
Matt,

you mentioned that the links are changed, does it mean that the 2.0s are already the ironed ones ?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] notyourdaddy:
java midlet manager should already be in the base rom. look in windows folder for jmm.exe It appears to be an older version, but i've never tried updating it.

Are you looking for flash lite or for the active x plugin for flash?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
jmm.exe gets installed with MMS... so if it's not working we might have a version conflict...?

patek - what do you mean by ironed ones? Are you referring to the rest of the issues being "ironed out"? Sorry for the slang, I forget this is a larger audience!

As for the issues, battery drain looks good, but BatteryStatus still isn't performing like I think it should. Basically it'll report battery drain at a specific point, then not update until a new "condition" changes, such as plugging in the USB, resetting, or locking the screen and pushing the power button. It could be because it's calling or "hooking" another dll that is compressed - but I really don't think so since none of the system dll's were touched (except office).

I'm half tempted to toss it out and try the XCPUScalar. As long as the battery drain isn't out of control, who cares what it is at any given moment? Anyway, since it's on and constantly querying the system, it's a negative impact on battery life itself!

Also, you probably saw the issue on the flash / java question. If you don't use Pocket IE much, or don't care, then it should be fine. I'm going to be running 02.21 all weekend, so I should have a good indication of how it's working by then (and no charger so battery life will be really important).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
In fact, I'm just going to remove batterystatus from the TodayScreen, and see how it does over time.

pardon my noobishness....but i just installed this ROM and i love it....except one thing.....where is the transcriber ?:confused:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mattk_r:
02.xx Beta was designed to debuge the new compression configuration - and I wanted to try and get as many applications in the rom without adding ones that traditionally use extra cpu use - like live and such. However, to make it practical, I had to add VSD or VC in case the test ran on for a while.

I'm happy with the battery performance (after 2 hours of hard use anyway), but I want to give it a couple days and a good workout to determine that the bugs are all out, once I do that I'll release a "full" setup and different mixes down to a base "naked" version...

For the 2.xx release that I'll start a new thread.
