Goings on..

natzakaria: I haven't used HTC Audio Manager in awhile. I think I was using a Wizard at the time. You may want to try a few versions to see if one works better than another. Or read some threads on them. Let us know if you come up with a definitive answer to recommend for others.

larsuck: Yes, the replog.exe is there. Something you installed may have "hidden" it though. A cold boot will restore it. Let us know if you figure out what app is responsible so we can avoid it!

gerald_s: Thanks for helping larsuck. You may also be stuck with doing a hard reset (aka cold boot), setting up the WiFi first, then installing things to find out what program is causing your problems. (Or, you can use your laptop as you say. Still, Skype is cool on the handheld, and works best over WiFi.)

As I've mentioned before, using a registry cleaning utility can help extend the time until hard resets, by getting rid of accumulated bad uninstalls and unwanted registry entries.

Best wishes guys,

@larsuck:

Did this file work for you? Did you find anything that you are missing on your hermes?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Mystery

Well, I rolled back my system state (using a previous backup) and, lo and behold, the file is there. So something I have done in the past 10 days is the culprit (a couple of cabs I installed to get auto bluetooth syncing going look fishy, but I wont spread any names until I know for sure).

Thanks everyone for helping me out with this.

Concerning support:

This Rom - and all the other Roms here were created by users of this forum in their spare time. The Roms are for free, you can not expect a support. They are not paid for cooking the Rom nor for support. And I guess that they all are having a real live too :)

But of course you will get support - more and better support than from most of the software companies. You will get it here in this forum by all the other guys who are using this Rom. The meaning of forums like this is that some are creating programs, Roms or whatever and others are using this stuff. If there are issues in a program or in a Rom everybody is trying to find a solution, post this solution and help other users.

This forum is not a one-way street, you are also supposed to learn and to share your knowledge. Take your time, read, ask your questions, search for solutions and eventually answer others questions.

Just my 2 cents about the way of thinking in forums like this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kipe:
well said!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] edhaas:
Checking in

larsuck: Did you get your bluetooth synching working? I don't use that and just want to make sure it works. I took out bluetooth HID support (keyboards, mice) in this rom, which I don't think will affect synching, but I'd be interested in knowing for sure. I know GPS and a2dp work fine of course. If you need to troubleshoot that issue, the T-Lite version has the HID stuff.

anak_design: Welcome aboard! I do try to do what I can to help people out here, but I'm very fortunate to have a great group of knowledgeable, active and supportive users. As you gain experience, I look forward to seeing you help out the next new guy! :)

alancstan: Thanks for helping.

gerald_s: Thanks for the comment. I know it wasn't meant as an attack; more passing on the knowledge. I'm glad to hear you got your WPA connection working!

kipe: Thanks for supporting gerald_s.

Best wishes everyone,
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Yep, bluetooth sync is running like a champ. I find it connects more reliably than usb.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] leepriestenator:
I've been searching for the perfect ROM for over 3 months now.... from the looks of it.... i've found it.

edhaas.... been following your work since the days of your ROM Squeezer. You've been mighty active here and I'm so glad you decided to start cooking.

I noticed you mentioned you've taken out the default Calculator app and the Transcriber. I use both of them extensively and I would appreciate it if you could point me to a tried and tested low mem usage calculator and some way to reactivate the Trasnscriber.

I intend to use your Super D-Lite ROM and I was wondering if the Java impediments will affect my use of Opera v8.60. Also is there a better version of Opera available?

Thanks and Best Regards... and keep up the good work.

Lee

Think I found the Transcriber @ http://wmblack.info/

That is the right one... correct?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] edhaas:
Bluetooth, transcriber, calculator

larsuck: Thanks for the info.

Lee: Thanks for the kind words. That transcriber cab is the one I am aware of, but there may be others out there. It should work fine. The calculator is a bit tricky. 1-Calc is mentioned by lots of folks, and the cab is floating around, but the company has protested its use. On the freeware sites there are others you might try (search PPC freeware). A nice "full bore" calculator is Neocal, but its not free. I wouldn't worry about resources with the calculator too much. Opera 8.60 works fine, but I really prefer Opera Mini. No current Java issues I'm aware of.

FYI folks, over 1,000 downloads of the various flavors of D-Lite and counting (not including the mirrors I can't track)! :p Still getting regular downloads of the earlier versions, which makes me glad I left them there.

Request concerning Windows Startup

I noticed some days ago that my backlight is turning off after 7 seconds. As this is to less time to read a mail or whatever I changed the setting to 30 seconds. Everything was fine until the next softreset. So for me its obvious that something is changing (at least) this registry key at startup. Those files are loaded during the Windows start:

.) ciphase2.exe

.) ciphasegui.exe

.) coldinint.exe

.) connmgr.exe

.) device.exe

.) enAlarmPPC.lnk

.) gwes.exe

.) launcher.lnk

.) poutlook.lnk

.) services.exe

.) shell.exe

.) shell32.exe

.) TimeWizard.exe

.) WisbarLite.lnk

Most of this files are system files and apparently necessary.

launcher.lnk, WisbarLite.lnk, poutlook.lnk and enAlarmPPC.lnk are started via \Windows\startup

enAlarm, Wisbarlite and poutlook are not changing the registry settings, launcher.lnk is linking to \windows\launcher.exe"xx (xx means two strange characters looking like squares)

So I kindly ask you guys to have a look in your registry and/or in the \windows\startup folder if theres are the same files and above all: is there an entry "launcher.lnk"?

Edit: After writing this post I noticed that my device is switching off the backlight again after 7 seconds. Very strange.

Hmmmmmm. That means as soon as the registry is saved by windows itself (some seconds after going to sleep mode) its back to 7 seconds again.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] leepriestenator:
Thanks for that edhaas. I was just wondering how to get rid of the tray at the bottom of the screen with the comm manager icon and the battery icon. Most roms i've used till date have a link in the Startup folder of Windows ?(initxxxx)

Also what exactly is the Launcher in the startup folder for?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] edhaas:
launcher.lnk, backlight

gerald_s: I don't have a direct answer to your issue. I don't think the launcher.lnk is the problem. I'm currently running the T-Lite for the past few weeks, as I was helping people "shake down" that version. But I'll switch back to the Super D-Lite since we're getting more questions about it, and the T-Lite thread has been dead. Anyway, my 30 sec keyboard timeout registry settings are stable with soft-reset. Are you actually looking at the registry key to verify it's being reset? Also, troubleshoot with a hard reset (backup first!), then make your changes to the clean registry, then soft reset by holding down the power key for about 5 sec until the prompt comes up, and hit "yes". Then power up after a few seconds. Then check the registry. That will prove to you the settings are stable in the stock rom. :p Then it will be a question of figuring out what program is causing your problem. (enAlarmPPC or WisbarLite most likely) :(

Another possibility is that the storage memory buffers are full (don't ask me why). A soft reset as described above may be all you need to allow registry settings to "take" again.

leepriestinator: To be honest, I've forgotten how to remove the tray icons. I think its registry settings. There are apps which will replace/hide them. Wisbar and cpanel and Batterystatus and others. You may have to hunt and experiment, sorry. Fill us in when you find the solution. The launcher in the startup is not absolutely necessary, but seems to speed things up. ditto poutlook. You can try taking it out and you'll see what I mean. It takes up a little program memory, but seems worth it to me. There may be some problems running without it, but I don't remember exactly what they were if any.

Sorry if I seem a bit unresponsive here, I've been busy in "life" lately. :o Keep me posted!

Take care,
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gerald_s:
Of course I checked the registry entries, they are changed as soon as the device is saving the registry (softreset, power off, power save mode). I don't think that enAlarm or Wisbar are causing the problem, they were running before without issues on your roms. Maybe something went wrong after installing the backup from the 4 MB PP version. Or I cleaned the registry to much :D. I will do the next days a fresh install, then only synch the contacts and then I will install every day another app to see whether this problem is coming back or not. A long procedure but the most effective way of testing it really out.

Take your time, Edhaas, no need for you to find a solution, I'm sure I'll find the "troublemaker".
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] leepriestenator:
edhaas... no worries there. I know its in the registry... I was just being lazy. Figured you might know it and thought if I posed the question it might help the others as well. I'll find out about it keep you posted.

BTW... for those who are having problems with VC 1.6 regarding announcements or BT related issues... just PM me and I'll post the complete solution here. It works great with Super D-Lite. Thanks edhaas.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] edhaas:
Tray Removal, Launcher

leepriestinator: Looked up the registry entries to remove the tray icon:

Courtesy of meschle:

Remove the Battery Icon:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power]

"ShowIcon"=dword:00000000

Remove the Wireless Manager Icon:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr]

"Keep"=dword:00000000

BTW, once I reloaded the Super D-Lite and my old backup I found I'd deleted the launcher.lnk from the startup folder, and of course everything works well. I put it back even though I don't notice much difference.

Best wishes,
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gerald_s:
I can remember that one of the cracks here mentioned once that, if you remove this icons, the device will be slowed down. No idea why.

BTW: After flashing the rom new and installing all my apps one by one my problem with the background light is gone. Maybe I cleaned the registry too much :D Guess I should try to reproduce this issue, I'm curios what change caused this problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
Yeah, there are those that say that the removal of the Wireless Manager Icon slows down the machine. I have never seen it myself, but then that doesn't mean it isn't true sometimes.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] dereknas:
Will there be any big impact for the Superlite version since the extended Rom is opened now and I believe software is sharing this space?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gerald_s:
Its not sharing the space, its more space itself. There is no more extrom, theres only one larger program storage.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] dereknas:
Hi gerald_s, am I able to recover the space if let's say in future I would like to flash to other Roms?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] edhaas:
Stuff

Hi Folks,

gerald_s: Glad the backlight issue got sorted. Thanks for helping out in the thread.

larsuck: I've been running without the icons for a few days. Doesn't seem to be a huge difference in speed, or enough for me to notice anyway.

dereknas: As gerald_s says, in the Super D-Lite (and T-Lite) the extended rom is gone, but you get more storage memory instead. (The other D-Lite flavors maintain the extended_rom.) The easiest way to undo it is probably to flash a "stock" carrier rom, and then the rom of your choice.

BTW, I recently ran in to the first situation where I actually needed my storage memory. The new version of Thompson's Handheld PDR no longer runs on storage cards: 23meg! I was grumpy about it, but it does run very smooth now. And there's still plenty of room left.

For those of you in the U.S., I hope you're enjoying your holiday. :)

Dear edhaas

can you do your cooking on the new ATT rom (OS 5.2.1622 18128.0.4.4)

will be nice to have it with big storage and the extended rom blend into the mane memory

i used your D-lite now using T-lite and will be waiting to ATT-lite

thank you

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] dereknas:
Hi edhaas,

So you mean that if I flash Super D-lite and later wanted to try other Roms, I would need to go through the hassle of installing back the stock Rom first before proceeding?

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] schemer:
you can directly flash other custom roms but you won't find the ext rom when you wish to use it. in my case, i flashed mrvanx repackaged dopod to avoid reflashing the radio and it worked.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] edhaas:
Replies.

Hi All,

edward-riko: I answered your question in the T-Lite thread where you originally posted. Nice to hear from you.

derenkas: Its about a 10 minute extra flash, :eek: so yes its a minor hassle. But why would you want to flash another rom after this one? :confused:

schemer: Thanks for helping out.

Hi edhaas,

I took your d-lite 6MB PP ROM as baserom for merging it with

Schaps 3.54b german to get a german superstorage rom.

Did this with Hypercore Kitchen.

As I just needed the os.nb and XIP folder and no .rgu files

for recooking I thought this should work...

OK... It worked and I have now as expected a german rom

with 72.21MB storage (68.22MB free). -> Superstorage !!

But I wonder why my first splashscreen shows 3.60 instead

of expected 3.54 for rom version?! Can you clarify? Is the

SuperD-LiteWM6Hermes6mbPP.rar based on 3.54 as 1.0 was

or is it 3.60 as it seems (must have missed this in the first post) ?

Best regards,

Oliaoglio
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] larsuck:
I believe this has been noticed and is kind of buried in the thread. Kipe noticed it.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=1485838&highlight=hybrid#post1485838

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Olioaglio:
Yea, if someone wants to test my german superstorage rom,

no problem. I would just need some upload space... :o

Anybody can help out?

Olioaglio

edit:

@larsuck,

so according to edhaas' answer to kipe it seems not to be possible

to pimp a stock dopod 3.54 rom to superstorage with bepes instructions ??

So all current superstorage roms are hybrid builds with 3.60? Right?

Edhaas? Kipe? bepe? Can you bring some light into this?

Olioaglio
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] edhaas:
Superstorage, new build?

larsuck: thanks again

Olioaglio: Yes, that is what I've seen. I sliced and diced bepe's instructions and rom, and thought I'd created a clean updated 3.54 version, but then kipe noticed I'd actually created a hybrid. I then tried various other methods of modifying xip's etc, and then got tired of playing with it, since the released version(s) turned out to be very stable anyway. I have since gotten some more ideas, but haven't been willing to commit several hours to disassembling and reassembling running binary comparisons, and rebuilding and reflashing to try them out. My feeling is that bepe left out some information, probably inadvertently, but since it works I'm not worrying about it for now.

Good job with your own "hybrid". I thought it would work for you! Claymen offered to host some files over on the T-Lite thread (check the last page). Rapidshare is based in Germany I think, and is the standard around here. They will let you open a free "collector" account which allows you to track the number of downloads as well.

I'm feeling a lot of pressure to do a new build, but am hesitant given the lackluster response to the T-Lite compared to this build. Can anyone say if MMS or the Java in the new build is better? There's also the issue of whether to strip the PTT code or just make it selectable (more complexity, and difficult to troubleshoot as I don't need or want to subscribe to PTT. (it's ATT specific anyway) I would also strip the bloated animated start-up. Then there's the maintenance of a new thread. I think I'm talking myself out of it, but then I said that about the T-Mobile build and I ended up doing one anyway.

Beyond the effort, I also just don't think its likely to be any "better" a rom than this one!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] claymen:
If you want me to host some files drop me an email through the forums, I'm at work so cant spend my entire day trawling the forums (as much as i'd like to ;)) but yer i dont mind chucking files on my hosting, rapidshare annoys me due to the limitations of one download per x hours, when your trying to download a bunch of roms to try it makes it very painful.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Olioaglio:
edhaas,

thanks a lot for congrats, but unfortunately my created superstorage hybrid rom (at least for me) did not work as expected :(

Unless I have a lot of free space and german UI, I have the problem,

that for any reason the rom seems extremely unstable. To me it seems, that

the melted extended space is getting corrupted by IMGFS files or whatever

after some installations and/or playing around. This results in sudden hangs

and after softreset the device doesn't boot up anymore (hangs on first screen)

or come up with corrupted start menu and/or missing files popups and so on.

Every time hardreset is needed. On the other hand, if I build a rom with just

optimized space /wo extended rom (~62MB instead of 72MB storage)

according to tadzios instructions the rom is 100% stable in any way.

Maybe is just my extended rom area a bit of corrupted, since I had major

issues with installing apps or data in it even with earlier builds like the

Schaps ones. So I would be VERY happy if someone could check my

superstorage rom out and report whether it is really unstable :confused: or my

device memory just sucks. :eek:

Messing arround since days and spent a lot of hours on this, but I tend

to give up now. The problem on the existing 3.6x roms with melted ext rom

is, that they are all just WWE versions, and no one did mess around anymore

with translating muis like Schaps did with his 3.57a and 3.54b builds.

@claymen,

thanks, I sent you email :cool:

EDIT:

Turned out, that the rom is stable!! Just having flash memory issues

with MY own device which caused the troubles.

Blackberry support on D-Lite

Dear Edhaas,

Also from my side: big thanks for that extremely lean and stable version. I have loaded really a lot of apps and since now, it has not given me any stability issue.

Especially my Blackberry client, the BBC 4.0.0.90 (known to be resource hungry and to give the system a good amount of instability) works like a charm on this ROM. This should be one of the very recommended ROMs for Blackberry: big storage (as BBC needs a lot!) and stable.

So far, I have not seen any issue with A2DP, WiFi or BT.
