I'm very nervous about replying because my last post (dift thread) was met with a lot of hostility and I think it was just a miscommunication.

Since you asked us for what we're looking for I'd have to say that personally I would love to see everything in programs including PimBackup and Task Manager. The subdirectory "Accessories" confuses things for users of SPB Mobile Shell since that application makes it's own 2nd level area of Programs called.... Accessories! It's easy enough to fix ourselves but it would be nice to see it resolved at the ROM level.

Looking forward to trying the XM6_2 when and if it's available to the masses.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Sorry about that... Nope, I'm asking for input, so let me have it ;)

I've never used Spb Mobile Shell so didn't realize this conflict. Very good to know... Based on that, at a minimum Accessories will be renamed. I personally like to organize stuff, so will probably have like Toolbox then instead. I just figured out all the Registry incantations to get NoData to show up in Settings > Connections, so thats where it will move to (like MJconfig, to me, this is more of a Settings type app, and makes more sense for it to be with the other connections stuff).

Its definetly coming. This isn't a simple build from Ingenetics kitchen like I thought it was going to be. Plus, I want to "Complete" this rom. I've given up on the idea of a perfect rom, but I want one to be mostly bug free (I'm sure there will be minor quirks).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] kwanice:
Yes me too, prefer to organize stuff :)

and we are sure your next rom will be the perfect one :) !

good work !

It's fine. I think it's better when people are nervous about posting - it makes sure that they only post useful and helpful information. ("watice" I'm talking to you)

I like it.

That's funny. After reading your recent post explaining why you think people should just take the Pandora kitchen and cook their own ROMs I've been thinking of following the advice. Now you're making it look like more specialised and involved work. Clearly something we should leave to the professionals and let you guys work your magic.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] beowolf:
This is THE best Rom I have ever put on my phone, its fast. It hasnt crashed on me yet, and I use it heavily. I would love to have the touch rom, but that rom looks like it would freeze like crazy on my phone.

Terrific work on this. I love it. Love it. Love it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] :
mfrazz any ideia when you will release a new version of your rom?

you can fix the bugs found and update some apps include.

like, wififofum, wm5torage, pim backup..

btw, yours rom rlz!

help

hi guys.... i now i am a total noob at this but when i try to update the rom it errors out right after it goes to the bootloader with an error 300 something about the updater needs a newer version to update my phone. Any ideas.:confused:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] dcharles:
I'm all for an accessories like folder, this is something I usually create on my own to put all of my rarely used stuff in. My preference though is only for that one sub folder in the programs folder, any more than that and it gets cluttered. Software that creates additional folders in the program folder are a peeve of mine.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] xbiggyl:
Suggestions

mfrazzz, I bet you've put a lot of work to this upcoming ROM, though I hope it's not done yet cause my next suggestions would be worthless:rolleyes:

Anyways what I would love to see in this ROM are two main things:

1 - It would be great if it has a 100% compatibility with RADIO 2.25

2 - I really hope the slow boot (caused by installing "extra" :p files in /windows)

That's probably all, if anything else hits my mind I'll post it, hopefully before you posting XM6 v2

PS: is there a reg tweak for the keyboard (hardware):

first to lengthen the buttons LED lights time and also for lighting once you slide it out (sorry if it's off topic, but since I'm using XM6 It's okay, I guess :D )

sorry for the lengthy post and thanks anyways!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
I'm assuming by #1 you are asking for a rom that doesn't have missed calls / sms when using Radio 2.25??? There are no solutions to this yet. I'm not even going to attempt to change the gsm stack at this time as you would probably not see a release for many months (I don't have the time to spend doing that right now).

For #2, so far in my 2 alpha builds, I have not seen slow reboots. Longest I've seen it take when the 3rd splash screen comes up is about 30 seconds so far (and the 1st two splash screens only stay up for about 15 seconds or so). But yeah, I'm sensative to this issue.

This has been asked for before, but as far as I know there is nothing as easy as a registry setting to change this. Not sure if its hardware or something deep in a driver for the wizard. I've looked for it in the past but never found anything on this. May poke around again since you mentioned it but no promises.

Don't get me wrong here... With the Ingenetics kitchen, you can build a nice rom with little effort (just checking a bunch of boxes and running the scripts / tools). But I like to do my own customizations and all since thats what I like to do. I am building this rom for me mostly, so I like my own personal touches in it.

It won't be before July 4th. As I stated earlier, I'd like to actually release it on July 4th to celebrate, but I got a late start, so not sure that will be doable now.

wm5torage is now 1.75 and PIM Backup is 2.0 (in my alpha I'm running). I'll find the latest version of WiFiFoFum and get it updated too. If anyone knows of other things to update let me know. I'm still debating putting BatteryStatus back in. If I do, it probably wll not be the current latest version. I'm running build 217 and for what I use it for, that one seems stable and haven't noticed excessive drain on the battery with it. Could go back to build 195 though (the one that was in the Crossbow Reloaded series). Or I may just leave it out and let people install whatever build they want (as BS seems to change every few days at times).

Well, what I currently have setup under programs is:

Toolbox

Media

Extras

But right now Media and Extras don't have much in them so I may drop them. Still playing with this idea.

I can say that MJconfig is now in the System tab of the Settings, and NoData is now in the Connections tab of Settings.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] :
If think a bad ideia put batterystatus back, first because batterystatus is the kind of program that have a lot of updates, if you like to always have the last version, i may have some problem to subscribe the old one who comes with rom.

Tried to update today but get to 99% and stops and then gives Error 302 and suggests the connection is lost.

Goes back to the 3 colour screen ok and retrying has the same effect. Also tried the Tri Syndicate version and get same problem.:confused:

Have gone back to tmobile 2.21

My IPL/SPL are 2.21

GSM is 02.19.11

OS 2.24.2.6

Any ideas ?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Its right where Microsoft keeps it. Its in the Start Menu (not in Programs). If you want it in programs then either create a shortcut to the folder or use the Start > Settings > Menus and uncheck it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Are you CID Unlocked? Did you try pulling out your SD card while you did the flash?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] ExploreMN:
Mr Frazz, I have a question for you about Battery Status. You didn't include it in this build, so I downloaded and installed the latest version and it seems to be missing several features that were in your Crossbow Reloaded build. Things like "Disable proxy when connected to wifi" was one feature I loved. Not to mention CPU Scaling and Application scaling.

What version supported that, or was it some additional plug-in you added that I've been unable to locate?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] 177media:
This is a great Rom to be sure !!

Is it just me or is the text on the today screen a little off... when its white it seems to do a sligh rainbow in certain places. There a fix for this?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] :
here i dont have this insue...very strange...

already try to hard format or reflash?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] 177media:
No I sure havent, I just flashed it on and everything else is tip top... cept the fonts seem off.

So I can just flash the rom on top of this one? ANd it will be ok? I dont have to drop it back down to 1.05 right?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] :
yes only reflash your device, dont need to downgrade
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Sounds like you didn't pull a 1.04 beta version but installed the .04 version. Go get a 1.04 beta build and it will have what you are missing. The build in Crossbow Reloaded was 195. I'm running build 218 right now (I think 219 or 220 is the latest. I haven't tried upgrading yet).

I've basically decided not to install BS in my roms anymore as Ikarus releases new builds all the time, so most people tend to upgrade all the time (so its a waste of rom space when I'm trying to cram this thing full). Plus some builds of BS seem to do excessive battery drain...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Bellfazar:
I asked this earlier but didn't really get a response. I really want to be able to use the HTC Smart Dialer. Unfortunately, the Smart Dialer not only has my contacts in it but also any phone numbers I have stored on my SIM card. I've applied the registry edit to hide SIM contacts and it works everywhere else (contacts, SMS/e-mail/MMS, etc.) It just doesn't work on the Smart Dialer.

I've been looking around the registry to see if there's something in there but so far I haven't found anything. So I guess my question is this.

1. Has anyone else been affected by this problem?

2. Is there a fix for it/an updated dialer that might solve the issue?

3. Beyond that is there any way that I can work around it?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
In WM6, Microsoft made the decision to combine the SIM card stuff, and the Windows Live contacts all in Outlook. There is no way around this... Pocket Informant just released a new version for WM6 and it claims to have "smart handling" or somesuch of SIM contacts. Not sure what that means, but might be worth trying, to see if that helps...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Hmoll:
I have this problem, but only in Landscape view. Doesn't really bother me, but I did notice it...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Doomer D. Great:
Right, today while doing a major sync of my Outlook emails from PC to PDA, i was informed by a friend that he has been calling me for quite sometime and why wouldn't I answer? I immediately pulled the plug and then three missed calls appeared...

I have 2.19 Radio... it is still happening...

Also, how can I macro Messaging to Button 1? It remains fixed to Calendar even when it says messaging in the control panel...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Bellfazar:
That makes sense and I'll give PI a shot but it confuses me that there's a way to hide SIM contacts everywhere else in WM6 except for the Smart Dialer. This leads me to believe that it's HTC who is responsible for this behavior rather than Microsoft.

Edit: tried Pocket Informant. Absolutely useless.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] sauronrulez:

Thank you!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] 177media:
I reflashed it and got the same thing still. However, it was much worse on landscape. Man, I can not get over it. Such a shame too.

I have an issue with the time. For some reason it keeps reverting back to 24 hour time instead of 12 hour am/pm. Could it be because of SyncroTime? Anyone have any solution? Thanks in advance.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
For all you Cingular users, I've updated the first post with a cab that I created that may fix the problem on WM6 roms not working with the newer radios. I've had this fix on my phone now for 36 hours and so far no missed calls or SMS messages and I've switched to the Cingular 2.25 radio! A couple of other people are testing this over in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=312834 and they are running 2.61 radio with no missed calls too. So if you are on Cingular, give this a try. If you have missed calls on other providers, you may want to try it, but I don't know if it will work for you or not...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] dakshithaw:
2.61 Radio , doin good !

I found 2.19 to have virtually no GPRS access ( a very crippling thought ! ) , so I upgraded to 2.61 , and voila! No more missed calls , hang ups and non-waking-from-sleep !

Seriously , give 2.61 a try !:cool:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Bellfazar:
Is the reception any better? Does it offer significant improvements? Simply put, is there any worthwhile reason to update to 2.25 or even 2.61?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
2.25's reception is only marginally better than 2.19, but many report they have less GPRS problems (I've never seen this myself, but some claim on 2.19 they have to go to flight mode and back to get GPRS to reset at times).

2.61 though is very different. Supposed to be very quick on aquiring signal, gives you a very strong signal (in weak areas its noticably better) . I used to run 2.61 when I was on the stock Cingular rom and I found it to be a very good radio (and will switch to it later tonight to continue my testing of this fix). The only downside to 2.61 is that I think reports were that it tended to cause more battery drain (but most could live with that due to the improved signal they received).

But with all of this, remember that we haven't confirmed this truely fixes the problem, but in the 48 hours that I found this and have been testing it, I've had no missed calls or SMS (where previously, I'd have to go back to 2.19 within a few hours of putting on one of these newer roms due to problems). So things are definetly better now...

Had this too, a few times, try downgrading your rom first, then run lokiwiz again, en then the WM 6 ROM.

Did the trick for me.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] beowolf:

just to know....is xda mobile 6 reloaded coming ???????? people said that it would be the perfect rom? I´m wating for it!!! when would it be ready??
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Bellfazar:
Now that I've settled in to using this ROM I've noticed something very odd. The Start Menu is very quick as are folders but for some reason softkey menus are tremendously slow. It takes 4 seconds at least from when I touch the softkey to when the menu comes up. Has anyone else seen anything like this?

Also, response times from pressing softkeys is a bit slow. If I press the softkey it generally takes about a second for the highlight to show up on the softkey label (if that makes sense.)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Nope. Only time I saw this was when I was playing with some of the touch stuff. I wound up having to do a hard reset to get rid of the problems the Touch stuff caused on my phone. Not sure if you've installed any of that, but if you have, that may be part of your problem.

For me the menus pop right up. Sometimes I have a slight lag (maybe a second, but definetly not as much as 4 seconds). But for me, the highlight is quick, the lag is with it doing whatever the softkey is set too.

@maxlan - I'm working on XM6 Release 2 now. Very similar to what XM6 is now... After I'm done with it, I've kicked around the idea of revisiting Crossbow Reloaded and trying to rework it with newer stuff and blend it with XM6, but I"M really not sure how different that will be from what XM6 release 2 is now, so no idea if it will ever see the light of day or not.

What I do plan on doing is creating an XM6 Lite (hopefully released at the same time or shortly after this new version). I'm not going to call it Vanilla or clean, but it will be a "low calorie" version of XM6, as XM6 is pretty beefy if I do have to say so myself... Probably just what I consider "essential" tools, then you can roll it how you want it...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] garymeg:
Here Here, Mine also takes a long while to start up, other than this and the auto device locking even with no password set(this is a soft reset to get out of it) the rom is as stable as the three little pigs brick house

Can't wait for the next release

PS With Ref to how do i like my programs folder, all sorted and tidy, System tools ina a folder Media soft in another, etc,etc:) :) :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Bellfazar:
The only Touch based stuff I've used is the dialer that you included in the first post and the Audio Manager (I think that's a Touch thing.)

I'm considering a hard reset to just start over. Best bet to reflash to base ROM, then XM6, then new radio or a different order?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Not sure if the dialer is part of this (I haven't put it back on since I did the hard reset, as there were some things about it I didn't care for, but other things I loved and now miss :rolleyes:).

You can do a simple hardreset and just go from there. Or if you want to reflash, You should be safe doing just a reflash of XM6 and nothing else. But if you want to start completely over, the yeah, flash back to an official rom, then lay on the radio, then XM6 (really doesn't matter the order of the radio and the custom rom).

BTW: Check your PM before doing all of this ;)

If you want 2.26, then download the T-Mobile WM5 ROM and flash your device. Most custom ROM threads recommend flashing with the official T-Mobile 2.26 ROM before flashing a custom ROM.

There is no IPL/SPL only ROM. Go to the Wizard wiki and get the FTP link - you'll find the T-Mobile ROM there.

problem with the t-mobile radio

ok, i´m going to make my first post in english. I´ll try to say wat is my probem. I get the xm6 and it´s works fine but in two dais the phone get out signal phone. my radio si 2.25 uk tmobile, I don´t know why the signal phone get away. There is any thing to fix it? Please, remitme a link or somehing to fix the radio, so I would like to use this rom becouse it´s the best rom. I did try to flash with the 2.19 tmobile radio but the pda don´t want to install it. when i had install de 2.19 radio, in the first screen where the ipl/spl show, in the line of gsm is white, don´t put anything, and I had to reflashing with the tmobile room.

Please help me. I´m sorry for my bad english.

thanks ...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
Hi there, and your first post in english was just fine. Is your phone a G3 or G4 (whats the IPL and SPL on your phone?). I've never seen a problem like this. I would suggest you first flash back to your phone's official rom (remove your SD card first and leave it out until you get XM6 back on), then install the T-Mobile 2.19 UK radio (I would also suggest you download it again, in case something is wrong with your download). Then install the XM6 rom.

If the signal goes away again, it could be something your carrier is doing to block your phone, as there is no reason that I can think of that it would work for awhile and then stop.

mfrazzz,

I upgraded to this from Crossbow 1.7, and after installing all my usual apps (aim, opera, coreplayer, adobe reader lite, flash, etc.), and changing the boot screen, I noticed that i've been having a major problem: my device takes FOREVER to start up. It stays on the last splash screen for over 4 minutes, before finally allowing me to use the device. Once it loads however, it runs ultra-fast and I have no issue with it, however soft-resets are a pain as it takes up to 4 minutes for the phone to start. I didn't install anything weird, just the same usual standard programs I had with Crossbow 1.7(which I had no issue with). Have any idea what's causing my 8125 to slow down on the last splash screen during boot? Help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks.
