To change the applications on the quicklauncher, you'll need to edit the skin file of it:

\Windows\ql_skin_l.xml and \Windows\ql_skin_p.xml

the L is for landscape, the P is for portraid.

You edit it right from your PDA, using File Explorer i've included :) Its already patched so that you can hold the file, send -> Notepad :)

Edit, save, restart the plugin and there you go. You'll find it more difficult to change the icons tho... they need to be masked:

ql_xxx.bmp - colored icon with white background

ql_xxx_mask.bmp - black background, being the location where the icon is going to appear white.

The black on the mask file will turn transparent.

I struggled a bit on Gimp to know how it worked, but I think I did ok on the icons there :)

Idea: Hum... maybe we should start a thread with QuickLauncher skins and combos?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Thats weird... maybe you should redownload the file, and flash it again. I do know that sometimes errors occur during flash via USB.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Here to help :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Thanks Noonski!

If you guys want to thank someone really great, this is the guy.

If it wasn't for him, I would never start cooking ROM's. At least WM5SE would be only Rev1 :)

Greetz!

I just downloaded the latest version of winzip and tried unzipping the zip file downloaded from the http://c42designs.com/wm/WM5SE_rev5.zip site.

When during the extraction, I get multiple errors "Some data in your Zip file is damaged - CRC check failed".

I'll try downloading the file again and unzipping it in safe mode. Other than that I don't know what else to try.

I didn't have any of these issues downloading and unarchiving the rev 4 rom.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions y'all might have.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] rnljarvis:
I just tried downloading and extracting in XP safe mode. I tried the latest versions of WinRAR and WinZip. CRC errors in both cases. :(

Any suggestions?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] teresaync:
First I want to thank you again for such wonderful work. I am having a problem with my ringtones. When I changed to one of the others, it just defaulted back to the cingular tone. I also want to know how to assign one of my music files for a ringtone. In the past I could click on the file and was given the option to make it a ringtone.:)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] moochermick:
I used this zip file and it worked ok. what size is it when you have downloaded it.

It was 63.6 meg. its just a thought that maybe you didn't get the whole file for some reason.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
You just found something I didn't realise:

- Since I have replaced standard file browser for GSFinder+, that option is not available no more... I'll look into making it possible on rev 6

- The X-Button, again is not working properly... instead of saving your changes, it is just closing the apps. You can use the right softkey and hold it and it will close and save your changes.

While I don't update the ROM, if you want to add another ringtone, you can copy it to the root of your storage card or put it in \Windows\Rings and it will appear on the ringtone selection list.

I knew it, it was almost too good to not having any issues...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
This is weird you guys having issues extracting the file... I've just downloaded my own ROM to see if it was a compression error on my behalf but no, it extracted all fine... Try downloading it again...

Actually the file reports 60.4MB on firefox when you download it...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cybercub:
Thanks, I have already downloaded and tried from all 3 mirrors you had posted. Same results freeze right when it gets to first time setup. There was one time I got past the cross hair setup, password setup, then it froze during network wizard.

Right now I just have wizard love rom sitting on it. No matter what I try it wont like this rom :(
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Thats really weird... something is wrong then with your device... try Rev 4 and see if it works for you :) Rev 4 is an upgrade to Wizard Love ROM...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] teresaync:
"You just found something I didn't realise"

wow. I'm contributing to the upgrade. I love the roms you have developed. All versions. This one works best because I can customize it. I also noticed that my file -nodata- is not loading. I uninstalled and reinstalled it but still it is not loading. Am I doing something wrong? I need this file because I only want to use wifi and avoid charges. I love the ring tones you included. I'm using the android3. It's nice to have a ringtone that actually rings.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
That how I've made this ROM better, you help me help you!

If you have a Wifi connection active, no charges will be made because GPRS/EDGE will not be activated. I've made it to act like that ;) I too like to use Wifi at home, for WLM chat when I'm away from the computer :)

I've never used -nodata-, can it be also X-Button related? I've just made it inactive so that I don't have none of these issues. Settings->System->X-Button and remove all the ticks from the Button tab. That should teach him to behave, hehe

About ringtones, I use android2, fell in love with it :D

PIM Backup?

I backed up contact/calendar etc. using Spb backup then flashed to rev 5. However after I restore them in rev 5 it caused errors in Calendar/Contact. Now I have to reflash to rev 4, restore then rebackup (but using PIM Backup).

Dear dferreira, could you please provide a PIM Backup .cab for rev 5? In case I want to go back to rev 4. Thanks!

PS: Also what about the new file explorer? Do you think we don't need Total Commander any more? Actually the only reason I use TC is to create shortcuts. Actually could you please provide separate .cab's for all existing programs in rev 4 please? Like the cool camera/cool capture you already posted, plus Clear Temp and some other interesting apps.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] teresaync:
Seems like you have taken a lot of things into consideration. I just uninstalled the nodata file. BTW I clicked on all of your googleads. You're the greatest.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cybercub:
Rev 4 works fine, in fact I was using rev 4 before upgrading to 5. It just does not like 5 at all.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Noonski:
After a while i completely started kicking X button out of the rom an replacing it with pBar 1.5.

Now both are gone as Quickmenu has build in Taskmanager and hibernate function.

Check out maybe you'll like it.

And new iContact version 0.4 was just released a few days ago.

It's nice and dark compared to Randomaccess app.

And something else:

A lot of people can't get new HTC Dou Apps to run on WM5.

With you experience of getting new **** running on WM5 this might be a nice challenge for you (i still haven't reached the point to re sign Dll's and exe's yet)

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Raithlin:
Folks having trouble downloading and getting CRC errors, etc. should try downloading from another provider as well. It could be a transparent proxy caching a bad copy. You could try forcing a refresh on the proxy (paste the url into the address bar, then hit CTRL-F5) as well.

Just a thought. Good luck.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
PIM Backup is also present on Rev4. I've also included PIM Backup on Rev5, so I don't know why you used SPB Backup? I've sucessfully restored my info using PIM Backup from Rev4 to Rev5...

You can also create shortcuts using the new File Explorer :) Press and hold the .exe you want to link to and choose shortcut. Nice and easy.

I didn't include Clear Temp on this Rev, but I've made it automatic cleaning of Start Menu Programs, everytime you restart your phone. You can clean the temporary files by deleting the folder "Temp" that exists on your storage card... So, until I either release Rev 6, or you can download it here: http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/cleartemp.shtml

this rom is GREAT!

Currently running this rom and all i can say is that it's rock solid! did you by the way overclocked the rom to 260 ? because that's what batt status says :) anyway, great work!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
I did had a Rev with pBar on it... Rev3 I guess... but it was hard to hit it with the finger... I must have missed Quickmenu... I'll look into it, and if works great, I'll simply replace the X-Button for it.

I can't add it to my ROM's. Unfortunatly tene, the author of those apps, doesn't allow any cooked ROM with his apps. And as I don't want any troubles, I'll leave that as a choice for the user.

Yes, I've already started some porting... you can see the Action Screen :) It has all the buttons working correctly on my version ;)

HTC Album also works, but not all of it... gestures don't work yet. Some dependency I didn't resolve yet...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cybercub:
Whoa! If that is indeed correct this could be the reason my device is having issues with this rom!! It is showing signs of being overclocked too high and freezing!

dferreira can you take a look to confirm this, it might answer my prob!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
I didn't do any overclock. I treasure my battery!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] th_undead:
huello :)

Mine is working just fine but i did set the cpu speed back to 201 because i dont want to kill my cpu :) try to install battery status and se the omap to 195 or 201. i took a quick look in the windows folder and i saw the omap utility zipped. but i could not find any means of autorunning by the system . also waiting 4 confirmation. CHeers
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cybercub:
Lucky you my device wont get past the tap here to start device screen it froze really fast. I do know my device in particular will not tolerate any overclocking as nice as others do.

Thanks for the valuable information! Yes I know PIMBackup is in rev 4 but I'm more used to Spb backup that's why I've always been using it.

BTW, there is no need to apply M$ DST patch, right?

BTW2: I wanna thank you again for your beautiful ROM (you can't be overthanked). There are many nice things, but I just wanna mention one thing maybe nobody has ever mentioned: I used to have a lot of dropped bluetooth connections when I used T-mobile's ROM (average 2~3 times a week). But ever since I installed rev 4, I NEVER had a SINGLE dropped connection. I listen to audio books on subway EVERY weekday. That's amazing!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] derkesthai:
Could someone post/link the theme used in rev 4 ? I liked that one a bit better :)

Also, how do I change the 'enjoy android' splash screen?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cybercub:
Some things I have done to try to get this rom to work,

- Downloaded from all 3 mirrors, tried them all and same result is freezing.

- Removed hard spl back to default spl, still freeze.

- Tried installing with and without performing a hard reset.

- Installed wizard love rom, then upgraded - no luck.

- Wizard love, WM5SE 4 works fine, all variants of wm6 in wm6 forum works like a champ with no freezing.

I just can't figure out what is causing the issue with this rom. So it must be something at bootup that for some strange reason my phone 8125 G4 just does not like. I really wanted this rom as it got rid of the touchflo crap and cube junk. I will wait for a later revision and hope it works.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] moochermick:
theme should be put in windows directory.

hold sylus on any pickture and you should get option to set as background

edit- sorry thats the green one i'll try to find the one from rev4
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Actually, I just found out what is causing you the freeze... its SmartKeys... I've been playing with its settings before cooking the ROM, and forgot to remove the auto overclock set to 240MHz... :o

Use Rev 4 in the meanwhile, until I release Rev 5.1. There are some things I'm going to update too and I'm gonna make them for Rev 5.1.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cybercub:
:D you rock! I can't wait to have this rom on my phone! I love 4.0 (minus the htc stuff). I will continue to use that until later revision of 5 is out.

Thanks can't believe I kept that green thing.:D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] derkesthai:
hehe, I noticed ;)

but the 'enjoy android' screen is not the background I guess? there is like 3 screens.. with 'loading' etc. Two of those can be flashed, but a third one (the one with the forementioned text) is software based I think...

Revision 4

hi

i've got to say i love rev 4 it's a great rom and i didn't have any problem with it usually.

i tried rev 5 it is very nice but.

i had a wierd problem closing programs they just refused to get closed!!

when i tried openning word i got an error (don't remember the error already flashed back to rev4 sorry.

when i opened excel it just got stuck.

i don't know if it's a problem with the rom maybe it is a problem with the hebrew support i installed afterwards?

any way waiting for rev 5.1. take your time don't hurry up maybe you should open a test group :D

great work you will really make me think twice before i will replace my wizard.

rev.5 and few questions

I'm currently testing rev. 5 edition and it's almost perfect for me, but:

1. How can I customize tabs on today screen?

2. I like the wm6 look of start bar (highlightning), is there a way of changing colors of start menu (by registry maybe)?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
SmartDialing is working... did you install any dialer skin on the ROM? Did you try installing another smartdialing? Newer versions of smartdialing don't work on WM5, they are for WM6. Did you let the extension rom install after flashing? The extension rom has 2 needed fixes so that smartdialing work on wm5!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
As I said before, the ROM is auto overclocking to 240MHz the Wizard... I know, I know, its my fault. Not every Wizard can handle it and I left it at 240MHz when I cooked the ROM... my fault :o

You can try editing the smartkeys.ini that its on \Windows and put a ";" before where it says OMAPCLOCK=240. That will make it disable the auto overclock.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
1 - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1671024&postcount=2

2 - You can edit/change the skin. Search for ThemeGenCE, you can pratically change the skin to whatever you like. If you like, you can also change it in the PDA directly by installing UITweak: http://en.handybyte.com/cat/system-utilities/tweaks/ui-tweaker/

First lemme start by paying homage to the great dferreira...this rom rocks.

I have to ask a question about folderview.exe, a file that a launch button is directed to. Everytime its executed, it brings me to a start menu screen thats empty except for a programs folder, and inside the programs folder there is also nothing. Can I redirect this to the real startmenu/programs folder?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] capncucci:
yea sorry, i forgot to mention that i installed htc home plugin 6 tabs. after install and i restarted wizard it started doing that.

-capn
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
That means you have overwriten my changed folderview.exe... You need to use my folderview.exe to get to work properly. Why do you use HTC Home plugin? It isn't working properly on WM5... Take a look at the plugins I've added to the ROM, they replace HTC Home completly... except for weather, but I'm looking for an alternative for that, that actually works!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] capncucci:
I like htc home because i can fit my contacts, time, commonly used programs, and ringer profiles all in one plugin and its all finger friendly. I like the quick launcher that you have set up because it makes more room for programs in the htc home. I don't mind military time so it doesn't bother me.

Think i could trouble you to post the folderview.exe that you changed?

thanks,

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Don't know if it will work that way... I do know there are dependencies on HTC Home Plugin and folderview.exe... remember it came from that plugin.

Netherless, here it is... just change the extension to .exe

bluetooth not working

First of all let me start by saying I love the rom...

Maybe it's my mistake, but every time I push the ok button after cheking turn bluetooth on, it automatically turns itself off. The problem also occurs when I try to turn bluetooth on with the connection manager.

My second problem is that GPRS doesn't seem to be working on my device but maybe my operator blocks it (KPN Mobile). The device tries to connect, but after 20 secs it tells me it can not connect but it can't tell me why not...

Does anybody recognize these problems??

Hi dferreira,

I tested more and had a few more questions:

1) Midlet is quite slow compared with that in rev 4. I'm sure it's Midlet's problem not wifi problem 'coz IE (and Google Map) works as fast as in rev 4. Is there any way to go back to previous version of Midlet in rev 4? Also the Chinese font in opera mini looks very ugly, but it was good in rev 4.

2) Excel Mobile is slower. This doesn't bother me as much as Midlet, just want to know if it's the case for everybody else.

3) Any way not to clear temp files after starting up? Is it to delete the "Start Clean" shortcut under \Windows\StartUp? I did this but the first time my wizard got stuck during startup. I soft reset it and it worked again but I wonder if there is any harm ('coz "wifi status" was gone). I soft reset it again then wifi status showed up. Please confirm.

Thank you! :-)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Hum... my bluetooth is working properly here... It doesn't turn off like that.

About the GPRS, make sure NetworkWizard isn't overriding your settings. Settings->Connections->NetworkWizard. Make sure either to turn off auto settings and check if the settings it put are correct for you.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:

I didn't change the Midlet manager, so its the default that comes with WM5. Rev4 had an updated Midlet and I forgot to replace the default one by that one... sorry again :o so many things on my mind when building ROM that I left things behind... Will fix on Rev.5.1

I didn't notice any big difference on performance of Excel, Word or Powerpoint... Take into consideration that it has been updated... so like Windows... it gets heavier memory wise...

I don't clean the temp files on startup, all I clean is the entries on the startmenu for the recent used programs. That's what Start Clean does. Wifi status? I don't see any relationship between both... My guess is that nothing major happened :)
