[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] AxxlPPC:
In ROM or OUT of ROM. My opinions in Itallic and Underlined.

I managed to resolve this problem in the same way. I don't think this is a problem of the ROM either. Just some setting you have to do before start using the device.

TomTom7 work, Navigon Mobile navigator 6.5 work (MN ver7 doesn't start). [/QUOTE]

MN7 is not designed for our screen(240x240). If somebody 'redesign' it maybe it will start.

I tried on Beta 9 successfully: Destinator7.0463; GarminXT5.0.10; iGo8.3.2; Route66.8.6126;TT7;. All of them catch the GPS signal extremely fast -in less than 30secs. Only exception is R66-it needs a minute or two. So I can say the GPS driver in the ROM is extremely good.

I think that only couple things can made this ROM fully functional, there is no need for other applications in next ROM version-let users find personaly other applications for personal use. :rolleyes:

I think that this ROM at final version only must have:

1. FN blue key solution (for calls)

2. fast switch on and take picture with camera button (Button 5 in Setting/Personal/Buttons)

3. hardware keyboard language change for t830 with non-English keyboard ("cab" or"exe" installation file with other languages, or different ROM versions with other language keyboard driver, or maybe language changing can work with modification at "Advanced Config" from "Programs/Tolls" and in "Advanced Config" submenu "Input/Keyboard layout"?)

4. repaired ROM mistakes/errors/problems which users discover at exploatation.

Completely agree with all points !

Remark on point#3:

-I am still not clear is it possible to have in one ROM more than one (hardware)keyboard. If possible: we have to provide powerbyte the necessary files for each desired keyboard type. Is it possible to take out these files from a software installed keyboard type?

- If not possible to have in one ROM more than one keyboard - we stay with English one, or everybody provide powerbyte with the necessary files, or

he might decide to provide is detailed instructions how to make it ourselves.

All other functions can be solved with different applications like for example:

- Resco Backup for data backup,

- G Alarm for better reminder clock,

- keyboard autolock appl. like S2U2,

- Paragon Interkey or Resco Keyboard for language change on software (touch screen) keyboard and different touch screen keyboard shape,

- keyboard language mapper like AekMap (from post #1161) can made hardware keyboard change and solve #3 above,

- Antithief application asked at post #1173 - can be solved with Lock function which allready included in ROM or external appliaction (which can send silent SMS message with GPS position in case off stealing T830),

- JGUI SMS Reports Eraser for voice SMS/MMS notification and automatic reports erasing,

etc...

[/QUOTE]

Agree with your suggestions, except for Antithieft application. My wish to implement it in the ROM is invoked by... the developers of the applications.

I have checked several of these and the majority of developers advice to 'cook it into your ROM if it's possible".

This comes from the specific purpose of these kind of applications.

They need to stay in the device till the very last possible moment. And have to be secured in the most secure possible way. This way is the ROM-cooking.(BTW the Idea for JGUI ReportEraser, but in the ROM is nice too)

I can only add here as a recommendation, a request posted somewhere above: 'Fn' and 'Caps' keys Indicator. But I am not sure it's possible.\

And other remark too: within the ROM you have predefined space. Better to use it with maximum efficiency. But on the device - the space is always less than you need. Not taken into account the CPU usage. So better to put more in the ROM, right?

[/QUOTE]

I have more than 3,5 GB applications for PDA, and I can send it on rapidshare, megaupload or other server service- let members find appropriate software for PDA. :)

Applications which you allready included on this ROM version (for example CPU Scalar, OxiosCloseApps etc.) are enought for T830 functions, that's my opinion. Of course - you can always put in ROM more applications (which you like, or if you find that is extreme usefull for all).

Thank you very much for your work! :) ;)

Best regards![/QUOTE]

So am I.

One again: Big THANK YOU ! to powerbyte.

He made T830 work better than the original installation. He deserves to be paid from FSC !

( I just don't know how can I support more these dude ).
