Well I have created an OEM version of Slide2UnLock. I have tested the package and it works fine. If you happen to find any issues please email me about them. The current version is 1.216 and you can download it at http://www.phantisy.com/Mobile/

If you would like to read about this program you can goto http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-slide-2-unlock-v1-216.html

Note:

The program is installed to /Program Files/Slide2UnLock. You must run iLock.exe first then you can run the shortcut that is found in Start --> Programs --> Slide2UnLock.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oppressa:
So you have to run it each time you want it to start? Can't set it to run after a certain period of inactivity?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Phantisy:
You only have to run the iLock.exe once. After that if you phone goes into sleep mode it will run Slide2UnLock. At least it does on my phone. I just made the oem program. Even if you installed the cab you still have to run ilock first. I have no control on how this starts but once you run ilock you are good to go.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
this is usually caused by having programs look to the storage card. Try building the rom without selecting the "save to storage card" options.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Jamie Jay:
I have been having the same problem as this and never select the save to storage card option.

Back on the Schnaps rom now :(

Reference my post a couple pages back 1493 which talks about my experience.

If you perform a soft reset during the 2nd boot that's taking so long before it completes, your system should boot up much quicker and be extremely speedy. Please post your findings if this helps you.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chunkymonkey:
I have found similar:

under 6.2 I didn't have this issue (or any at all) but on 6.2b the first boot after initial setup gives the slo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ow bootup.

It will eventually finish if I leave it long enough (though the device is incredibly slow throughout if I let it) but will boot normally after that. SR during the attempted bootup goes straight back to reasonable normality.

However, I am finding the device much less responsive now.

My build (fairly minimal) has not changed between versions.

I'm at work so can't go into much depth but will try to post a bit more useful info than this later.

Question for mattk_r

Dude, is there a way this can be somehow made to work for Artemis? Or...is it Hermes-only?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
Argg..... I just experienced the dreaded slow boot too...

Has anyone using 5.5b seen it? I'm going to flash it and see how it works.

One thing I observed is that when it has issues, the operator logo (in my case, AT&T) is not preceeded by XDA. Something to think about anyway.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pietrucci:
I use 5.5b since right after it came out. Have done lots of softresets, till now no slowdown on reboot at all!

BatteryStatus

Has anyone used BatteryStatus ver. 224 thru 235 and experienced any usual reading with the Bepe configured 3.60 & 3.57 roms? The CPU usage always reads 100%. I never saw this before with the partitioned Pandora roms. I tried someone else Bepe configured 3.60 rom and the CPU usage read normal.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chymmylt:
Ok - I keep having this same problem (even when I build it with no options - just the min needed for the phone to work i.e. dialpad, comm manager etc). The phone works great no problem - I've tried and it will work for days without problem - no matter what I install. However, not long after I pair it with my laptop and sync it - not long after, I can not bring up the phone (by pushing the green button or selecting it from the windows menu). I then try to reboot the phone and it gets stuck on the first screen right after the SPL/IPL info disapears and the phone never gets past that - I've left it for 4 hours and it doesn't go past it. I've tried soft resetting from there - removing battery for a minute and trying and it wont go past that screen. The only way I can get the phone back up and running is to hold the two soft buttons and hard reset the phone - then it's back to 100% stable - all until I pair and sync my phone.

Any ideas?

P.S. - this is with 6.2 - 6.2a + 6.2b - I've been waiting for 6.2c hoping this will take care of this. I've also tried most of the suggestions people have had when they say they're having a long boot and none of these have helped :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I just had the same issue (activesync related) with 5.5b (c for me :)). I'm gonna back up a bit and see where it went wrong. Possibly again related to the MMS split (the biggest change prior to the big storage OS.nb).

Sorry for all the headache guys. I suppose I could make a basic working setup using 3.57 and no big storage and only MMS v4.0, but what fun would that be?

I'll see what I can do over the next few days. If you want to jump ahead, grab 6.0 OEM/SYS with 6.2's ROM and play. It might be just that easy. Don't foret about the IE fix either. (oh, wait - I hadn't uploaded that in a build yet ;)).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chymmylt:
Well glad it wasn't just me! :P So you think the 6.0 OEM with the 6.2 Rom should be free of this problem? I'll give that a shot - else I might play with some of the new "prebuilt" roms I haven't had a shot to try for a few days while things get sorted :) At any rate - I really look forward to a version w/o this because I am really liking the concept of a personalized rom (nothing better then the idea of hard resetting and having 99% of everything there - just needing to sync!)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] _RMB_:
Hey matt its the Halo guy....lol....well i downloaded your new rom (6.2) and just added the older oem you had on ( the one previously on before you took it off a day or two ago) and ended up billing my own rom and it works flawlessly....i mean GREAT...so that might be a great solution for now.....LETS PLAY HALO MAN!!!! lol

edited....

I actually used rom 6.2a 6mpp and 6.2 oem and everything is great!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] _RMB_:
also guys if you are there all day just connecting and disconnecting your cable from computer to the phone while flashing or whatever...sometimes the computer wont read the connecting....if that happens just disconnect and restart your computer and it should work (i run vista and it happens when i get pluging happy and works again when i restart!!)

hope it helps!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lokmeup:
Yup, and I tried it on different computers. Same thing 3.60 on start up... and the dreaded slow reboot... I tried to download another copy, but it says your still uploading... I guess I'll have to wait and try again later. It would be nice to have a ROM to work with... ;)

First of all: I'm really glad with this kitchen, because I can build it my way, just because some home brewers made this possible! NW

I must admit I didn't read the whole thread, but is there a possibility to add a newer msn live version to this kitchen(build 30.2100)? To me it has two main benefits: first, you don't have to add your msn contacts anymore to your phonebook...second, as far as my feeling goes....My Tytn is faster when msn live is cooked in instead of installing it by cab, but maybe this is just in my head...

Much appreciation

Hey, whats does the IE fix do you are talking about? Does it fix the sms problem where sms's open halfway down the page?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pietrucci:
No, dont! (go back to no big storage). There áre people without any problem! (at least I am, versieon 5.5b...).

No slowdowns at startup, no freezes, fast. I'm using the phone, SMS, bluetooth Parrot carkit, Nokia headset, GSP and external phone, navigation, Windows Live, internet, Wisbar Advanced Desktop, lots of visual extra's, install and delete a lot.

And still no issue! Really the most stabile ROM I even had (and I had them all...).

Ok, I'll leave 5.5b alone for now. I do have a couple updates for it - the network settings and little things.

I'm extracting out the new 3.62 rom now. I want to see / play with it. I've had much better luck with the AT&T base roms, so I expect good things to come from it :)

No ETA, but it shouldn't be more than a day or two.

OEM: Voice Command 1.6 US with BT Hack (Not Working)

I've tried to get an integrated working copy of MS Voice Command 1.6 AND the BT hack. I have all files in appropriate folders, correct RGU, correct iniflashfiles, edited mxip_voicecommand_1.provxml, and when I check everything on the phone after a flash EVERYTHING is as it should be (registry entries, file location...) BUT still nothing. It wont work.

Previously, with VC1.6 cooked in, I could not get BT hack to work without reinstalling VC1.6 over top of the ROM files. So, it has something to do with being cooked in.

Maybe someone else can figure this out.

Files:

Voice Command 1.6 US with BT Hack.zip = OEM MSVC1.6 & Enabled BT Hack

VC1.6_bt_headset_wm6- lokmeup.cab = Cab to install AND Enable the BT hack

Well, I have an issue... I installed it using the new Cing 3.61 ROM. I choose the x-button to close my programs.

But now when in GSFinder when I click the OK button while performing a copy GSFinder closes itself!

When I choose x-button to minimize programs no problem anymore.

In x-button version 1.5 no problems with this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Phantisy:
If there is a bug in the program I cannot fix that. Your issue seems to be with the HTC program. All I have done is make it so you can install this when cooking your own rom. I can't help with the issue you are having.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chunkymonkey:
Yeah, afraid it's just an error in X-b 2.0. It doesn't distinguish between 'OK' and 'X'.

I was disappointed to find they've introduced this small muck-up as it's otherwise a nice update of a useful little utility.

(I wish Magic Button 2.0 would work properly with WM5/6 as I suspect X-button to cause occasional slowdowns. I know Magic Button actually works but it doesn't integrate properly with modern themes like it does on 2003.)

You could for now set the button to minimise but not close. I know that takes 3/4 of the point of the thing away but at least the today screen applet will let you close one or all items that're open. That or go back to 1.51 I guess.

Volume mutes randomly

Hi.

First off huge thanks to Matt and everyone else who contributed to this kitchen - it's seriously appreciated! :)

I installed 6.0 (IIRC) - ROM ver 3.60.110.1 a few weeks ago and it's been running really well with one small problem - seemingly randomly, the volume will mute itself every few hours or even every few days. The vibrate symbol will show in the top bar but the volume drop down box will show off.

Anyone seen this?

Appologies if this has already been reported/fixed - I did search but turned up blank, and the thread is rather long! :)

Cheers!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Memnoch30:
Isn't this related to the HTC Home bug? There's a bug where HTC Home plugin will put your phone on vibrate every once in a while. I think some people concluded that it did it according to your calendar. Like if you had an appointment it would automatically switch to vibrate. I'm not sure what was finally the issue since I don't use the plugin myself.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] PGale:
Ah thanks - I'll do a search. Yes I do use the HTC home plug.

Hey guys - sorry for the delay. My "career change" is taking a bit longer than I expected...

I'm debugging the 3.61 build now. I can't keep maintain three builds, so post 2 will hold the legacy stuff for a while, and I'll update post 1 with the new BETA for 7.0.

Here's some details on it:

No dialer options (yet-though you can install a cab)

No MMS options (yet - comes with 3.5)

Slowdown due to SD issue?

Those of you who are experiencing the device crawl ... so far identified as being caused by programs installed on, or looking for data on the storage card, I'm curious if anyone has tried the ArtemisSDEnhancement.cab utility that was posted a while back.

I am not currently using a Pandora ROM, but my own concoction, based on HyperCore, has been exhibiting this same behavior (slowdown) lately ... and it seems to be getting worse.

Today, I installed this cab (attached), and - knock on wood - so far, every reboot/reset has been wonderfully quick.

Could this little utility be a fix for everyone's problem?

Hoping so...

-pvs
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I'm running the new 3.61 ROM, and it looks very nice. No reset issues / slow startup while on activesynce, etc...

I'll be working to split out the dialpad and MMS, but for now this setup looks pretty good as-is. It isn't as "clean" as it could be - but it isn't bad either.

I posted 7.0 Beta 1.

6 hours - 50 resets / power cycles and no issues what-so-ever :)

Matt, are you going to make MMS optional in the future?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oppressa:
Matt, slow startup issue. It sits for about 1 minute on the Windows Mobile screen after a soft reset, then when it got to the Today screen, the Start Menu and all icons in the top bar appear very slowly. First Start, then about 3 seconds later the E connection symbol, another 3 seconds then signal strength etc.

Overall VERY slow system response. IE takes about 10 seconds to fully load.

EDIT: 4Mb Pagepool used

5 or so soft resets later and it's speedy! *Shrugs

Can't turn off infra-red though.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
I'm uploading the ROM that I used. There's a possibility that the base ROM was corrupted which I made the ones in post 1 from (though somewhat remote).

As for the other question - yes, I do plan on adding in the other MMS packages - but not until I'm sure the slow boot issue is resolved.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Phantisy:

Installed the HTC Dialer in the ROM, but after installing some programs then after a softreset my dialer has chaged to a black dialer skin. But I'm sure I didn't install any other dialer skins!

I use Schaps configuration tool for some settings but I don't think that changes the dialer.

Anyone the same experience that the dialer skin changes?

I replaced the phcanOverbmp.dll (almost 500k!) with the one in Pandora's map (only 68K) and the HTC dialer is back! Will I get any problems replacing the large version with the small one?

Ok I just tried it with HTCustom that tweak tool, and I got the _setup.xml, so im doing better but I am wondering what you mean by rgu ? or maybe this one dosent have reg entries which wouldnt surpise me, becuase of what it does.

I think its it starting to become more clear looking at this ones xml data.
