7.0.0 comments...

hi all,

I had intended to post this earlier today but was interupted by my youngest daughters decision to be born today. Jillian Marie was born at 1550 US central time, 8lbs 0oz, 20" long and has (ready for this?) a head with a 14" circumfrence. The little girl is 90% head and 10% body. Mom and daughter are doing fine and will be home soon.

So while I was sitting around the hospital today I was also playing with 7.0.0 I didn't find ANY major issues but may have uncovered the root of a nagging problem. I have battery status loaded in the ROM and when ever I try to surf the net IE will shut down at odd intervals. Sometimes sooner sometimes later but it will always crash, unless I take overclocking out of the equation. If I set battery status to hold 195Mhz IE works fine, overclock and it crashes randomly. This may also account for the WiFi shut down issue I saw posted somewhere above, I am seeing the same issue but havent tested with 195Mhz.

So Pirate_theloon you have given us a very stable ROM for which this Pirate thanks you very much. I think in my next ROM build I will forego battery status and see if it really makes a difference. Oh and thanks for including the Sirius package, my wife listened to it the whole time she was in labor!

cyberon voice dialer issue

The only issue i have found so far is that when using my BT handsfree after pairing the device if i press the activation button on my BT my wizard ignores it.

If i dial manually i can hear throught the BT and be heard. However i cannot make the cyberon voice dialer to come up when i press the activation button. I saw the fix in some other threads but i wanted you to know about this issue.

best regards

Start-V1.3.bat

Dear Loon,

My first flash was using the 'Start-V1.3.bat'.

With this rom I was not able to install cabs, or flash again.

When putting in Bootloader and using the 'Start-V1.2.bat' method everything is now OK again.

Thanks for everything

Regards

Tony

I noticed Wifi kept dropping and switching itself off

Also I could not get Sirius to work (minor nag)

I played around with the ROM and liked it, but due to the WiFi problem I had to flash to a different ROM

I will take another look when I get more time later today

But other than that, so far it works great

Quit Over clocking and blaming on the OS!!!!!!!!!

Quit over clocking and blaming the OS!!!!!!!!!

Looks like Wifi issues may be due to battery status app version, if you read Russ's post (#453) you will see that he used Wifi and Sirius for an extended period of time, you have to sign up for a trial for Sirius to work. I have also had my Wifi on for extended periods of time and no drop outs.

BTW: My PCs flake out when I OC the hell out of them also!

Question on email set up

When using (flashing) the original Cingular/AT&T ROM email setup is automatic. The Name and server info is loaded for me.

With all other ROMS I have to put that info in.

I was wondering why that is if anybody knows.

Thanks

Overclocking, me?

Well, i didnt change anything from the default settings in the ROM.

But... I will reload it EXACTLY as it was and check to see if it is overclocked.

I usually NEVER overclock my Wizard.

I have fast cars, drive fast cars, but like the Wizard, I also have an SUV for normal daytime stuff.

Ok now you got me wondering why only a small handfull or having wifi issues and others are not?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] fix_it_2000:
I dont know either

I have a G4 AT&T issued Wizard (there that just about summed all my issues up in only a handfull of words).

I am currently flashing as I type this update, and the very first thing i'll check is the clock speed and retest Wifi.

Ill then drop the clock down under 195 and see if that helps. (i saw once the clocking app mis reporting 240mhz as 195 on the screen, but a test app revealed this truth).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] epimazzo:
The Loon,

I noticed that you had updated first page. Which improvements did you uploaded?

I have gotten weird issues that I cannot figure that out!:confused:

a) In settings\connections, it missed some icons including Wifi one. No idea...

b) Wifi signal is fine but takes some time to my device detect new networks including mine....

c) Scroll is enable but it works slowly. Dunno why...

These behaviours happened twice using V7.0.

Any idea? no overclocking btw...yet!:D

Here are a few other issues for you to look over.

This is a fresh build from the kitch applied with Shelltool over Wizard Love

"Error in the database" - when Network Configuration is running

"cannot read settings" - custom Media Hub

Unable to install any app from SD card

As you can see, i have not even been able to install overclocking apps.

Ah **** you beat me to Google Maps it seems.

BTW Google maps Changes language depending on the Localisation settings you use so it's not English Only. At least not the version i use.

And in your 6.X pantry there where some OEM packages in the tweaks that had the same UUID's and some of the the option.xml files for the package were set to True. So Bepe's tool didn't start because of this. Easily fixed. But might be confusing to some. Unless you fixed this.

Zoom SMS resulted in me not being able to open any SMS messages or New Mails.

Side note is that i'm cooking for ELF.

Will Dl your new version.

Really apreciate your effort. This is really saving me a lot of time finding packages left an right. Very nice collection.

But why not Simply upload to Kitchen Pantry?

I'm getting the same thing. Also noticed a few problems with initflashfiles.dat in the SYS\OEM_Lang_0409 folder. A few of the shortcuts are not formed right so they are not created. These are near the bottom, and have the name of the file to be copied without quotes, usually with 0409_ to start the file name. I can provide you the fixes I made in mine if it would help you....

I'm also having wifi problems. After playingaround wirh the 1.3 bat file, I'm moving down to 1.2 and see if that helps my wifi prob.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Russ741:
I had very similar issues with an earlier version of theloon's kitchen, the ROM was too big and that caused the problem. Once I reduced the number of packages and built the ROM at < 56MB I could copy all I wanted and install CABs from the SD or Activesync.

Also, I tried using the prepare ROM bat file... interestinly enough the output of the compression was larger than the input. So I don't know what it was compressing but somehow it made the total file size larger. So my point here is be real careful with the prepare ROM compression.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Russ741:
Look everyone.. this is pretty simple.. before you execute a .BAT file you really should read the 'Readme.txt' file. The 1.3 will delete any temp files created and the 1.2 won't. 1.3 does some other stuff as well but if you don't have the time to read the instuctions don't come *****ing to us. What's that age old adage? "RTFM?" Read The F***ing Manual"?

I am more than happy to help out a member who really needs it, but if you are too lazy to do your homework don't come crying to me or theloon when you turn your Wizard into a paperweight.

The_loon.

I really love the look and feel of this ROM, although I had several issues.

This , as you said is a Beta, open for testing and problem finding.

Please dont feel in any way that anyone is "picking fault" with you or your ROM. That is the whole idea of Beta, to Find the problems.

Part of my job is to destroy systems that people think are unbreakable. I then try to find fixes for them.

I am so busy at work, I find just enough time to try flashing Roms, but have no real time to work on resolutions.

I am in no way a simple noob, although I deliberatly give the impression by asking the noob questions for them. (i support over 1000 devices and am a certified electronics engineer, formerly working for people like IBM and Alcatel).

So if my questions and observations seem to upset you, that is not my intention. I too am looking for the "perfect ROM" and my issues all seem to have fairly simple fixes that once implemented will help us all have the best possible solution and total respect and admiration for the_loon.

Were you picking fault?

Edited: 9/27/07 @8:43am PT

First noob mistake:

THIS IS NOT A ROM!

It is a kitchen for creating ROMs.

Secound noob mistake:

If you don't read ALL of the recipe and follow directions don't even conceder reporting issues!

If you use salt instead of sugar in your ice cream recipe it will probably taste like crap!

Third: if you fit this criteria:

You are still a noob!

I Know this is a beta and is to be tested but here is the problem.

Most of the people that THINK they now what they are doing DON'T! I am guilty of this myself at times.

Saying you support 1000s of devices does not impress me. If a customer calls in asking for support you would require more info than what you have provided here.Your issues could have been resolved if you had given more info so your beta testing procedures are flawed. It is like taking your car to a mechanic and simply saying "car broke". This approach is not helpful to anyone.

BTW: I looked at most of your other post on this site and your questions look noobish to me. In here you are treated as you are presented. I wouldn't give a mad man a 6 pack of beer and a loaded gun things could turn out bad.

De-compiling a ROM is easy making it work with all requested apps is the hard part.

The errors seem to not be in the ROM itself but in who and what is used to build and flash it.

I was once a noob too and still am in some areas.

I don't have all the answers.

If I venture out of my regular field of expertise I am once again a noob in this new field. There is no such thing as instant knowledge.

I notice that Activesync keeps running. I see it when I click on X button, I keep clicking stop and when I check 1 or 2 hours later it's running again. I haven't connected to a computer.

I been trying to recreate the same problem over and over again but the base ROM looks pretty stable.

1) Did you flash to your carrier latest ROM prior to flash the ROM built with this kitchen??

2) Did you remove the sd card before flashin??

I had that problem when my ext rom was corrupted. To fix this, just flash your lastes carrier rom and then reflash your cooked rom.

If the problem persists... well... we willfigure out something

7.0

ok...finally got around to creating a rom with the 7.0 kitchen. don't have any problems with the rom that I built so far...wifi works fine...installing cabs works fine...

the only small quirkiness that i found was...that for some reason, when trying to buildos this rom, it took a LOT more combinations to get a flashable nk.nbf file...seems like i couldn't select as many options as i was able to compared to the 5.25 rom. noticed that there is an autorun on flashing that was scripted into the rom...wondering if that is the reason for the less space...(don't know where to go for removing that), as well, it appears it installs some cingular/att medianet files (not needed for t-mobile), so it also may be taking up space...

so...is there any way to remove those two?

btw, I'm using the hypercore kitchen to cook, since it's what i started with and i've grown accustomed to using that kitchen. if it's because i'm using that kitchen as opposed to the one that came with the part 2 files, then please let me know and i'll go about trying to use that kitchen to cook...

[update] ok...so i tried to use the packaged kitchen...the original compressor dropped the os file from 58mb to 45mb...that will definitely leave a lot of room to add stuff to...only problem that's forseeable is that i recall people complaining that roms would act crazy because of all the compression...well...if that happens, i guess i'll be cooking a lot more roms to figure out what works...thanks for the kitchen and cleaned oem, sys, roms files [/update]

"PropertyPath"="\\Storage Card\\Mail"

"AttachPath"="\\Storage Card\\Mail\\Attachments"

What is Voice Recorder that WM5 used?

I liked the way it worked over the ones in WM6

When I used it I would push and hold button 4 and the recorder would start, it was great I could record a message while driving with just a push of the button.

The ones in WM6 require you to hit the little record button on the screen to start record after the application opens.

The only issue I still have is when GPRS is on and a call comes and I don't answer it, it does not register as a missed call, but rather a completed call with a duration of a sec or 2. I know this is an issue with other WM6 ROMs, but I was wondering if it was fixed in this ROM and I was just missing something.
