Just thought I'd add my comments. Bear in mind this is the first time that I have flashed a non official ROM onto my Wizard. :)

Also, my comments are not intended as critisism and are just my thoughts. There is no way I could ever produce anything like this so I appreciate the work and time that has gone into developing these ROMs. :)

I first tried the Version 4 with touch then this version 5. I only had ver4 on for a few hours and ver 5 for around 5 hours now. I found that neither was perfect for me and an ideal would be to have some parts of 4 and some of 5 merged.

For me in Ver5, the X/OK in the top right doesn't work properly. Yes, I did do the realign trick but still it doesn't work right. (In ver 4 it worked perfectly even with the screen properly aligned. :/)

I like the fact that there is a lot of free memory free in this ROM.

I preferred some of the apps that came with ver4. (sorry can't remember them all as I only had ver4 on for a few hours). I guess they could always be added manually to Ver5.

I like the addition of TodayAgenda on the today screen.

I like that the theme is totally black as opposed Ver4's black with some blue (the X, and the scroll bars)

I find that scrolling through lists with the finger is not very reliable. Sometimes the list 'rolls' down fine other times it just scrolls one item or even scrolls in the wrong direction. I'm not sure if my technique is not correct. I'm using my index finger with medium pressure and swiping at a medium speed. I have the same problem on Ver4.

Voice Command 1.5 doesn't work on this ROM. :(

On the dial pad it's virtually impossible to see the 'Dialing', 'Call Ended' and 'Last Call' status as it's black text on a dark background. Makes it difficult to know what's going on.

Also, the gradient background on the contacts and agenda view in calender makes reading the text difficult on the right side of the screen due to black text on a dark background.

My phone ring tone always reverts to Windows Default.

Otherwise it's a nice snappy ROM. Muito Obrigado :)

updating rom

First..Happy New Year to everyone.

When I try to flash the this WM5SE 5.0 I get...

ERROR [208]: file open

The update utility cannot open the requested file.

Please check your update utility.

I also tried rev.4 and get the same error.

I'm new to this but I did unlock the sim and cid and flashed T-mobile 2.26 rom on to my Cingular 8125.

I need a little help flashing this great rom. What am I doing wrong.

Am I suppose to start from the beginning again BUTTON rom etc?

Thank you

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sunseaker:
I've been playing a little more with this ROM and noticed a couple of things.

The X button problem is strange because for me the mis-aligning of the screen work around doesn't work. I also found the behaviour of the X Button to be inconsistent. If the X is displayed then usually the window closes with a single tap on the X but when OK is displayed it doesn't close. I discovered that double tapping the X/OK closes the window every time. The other strange thing is that in Ver4 of the ROM I experienced no problems at all with X/OK and X Button.

There seems to be something strange with the ringtones. For some reason I am only able to set ringtones that are stored in the \windows\rings directory. Any of the ringtones in the \windows directory don't save, even using the right softkey to save the changes. All the ringtones show up in the list but only those in the ring sub directory can be saved.

I also spotted Omapclock.exe in the \windows directory. Running it showed that I was overclocked to 240Mhz. Is this required in order to run this ROM? What impact does it have on battery drain?

Otherwise I'm having no real problems and am looking forward to the next revision.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Hi,

The X/OK button is faulty because of the crappy task manager from HTC... If I remove it (you can't because its built-in on the ROM, will remove it in next rev), it works fine. Also, if I don't use it, the finger scrolling gets amazingly faster.

Because of this issue, the saving action on some frames ocasionly don't work, making it hard to save things... will be solved on next rev too.

The ROM is auto overclocked to 240MHz, I know... It wasn't intentional... I was playing with it, and left the file on the kitchen OEM folder :\

AMAZED

First of all Congrats for doing what you do improving whats done..I'm absolutely new on this..but want to update myself..I have an IMATE K-Jam..does this rom work in this one? what about WM6..I' tried to install Blackdiamond 3.1 but the phone went dead it only showed color stripes on the screen.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] emenl:
First of all I just want to say thank you to dferreira for this rom! I was sick of going thru WM6 roms, they look nice, but really lag due to the limitations of the Wizard's hardware. It works well with the Wizard, hardly no lag and everything is smooth, plus it still looks great! (after my own minor tweaks of course) :) can't wait for 5.1!

Anyway I notice some of you are having problems with screen alignment/not being able to click X. I had the same problem, found that if i wiggled over the X, it would usually do the trick. Well today I downgraded to the T-Mobile 2.26 base rom and reinstalled everything back up to WM5SE just to flash over everything, since its been awhile that I've had a clean install. Problem with screen alignment is fixed, and I notice my Wizard is running a tad bit smoother. Must of been some residual files from all the WM6 roms I ran thru that were causing some conflicts, so I recommend you do a clean install and work your way up if you're having issues. YMMV.

rom update worked

Try to copy the "nk.nbf"-file in the correct directory (CID UNLOCKED or CID G4 LOCKED) an then retry.

Thanks beelzebub..

--------------------------

I thought moving the file was for only G4's.:confused:

It worked perfectly this time.:)

also on using "X", I just tap the corner edge of the screen and frame and it works. alignment off a little but works for me.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sunseaker:
Yes it works with the K-Jam. That's what I'm using.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] fenix2:
Great do you need to have WM6 or it works with WM5?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sunseaker:
Not really sure what you're asking. This is a WM5 ROM. If you've been flashing various ROM and have been experiencing trouble I would go back to flashing the official TMO2.26 ROM and then flash this ROM.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] fenix2:
Will try this one have you tried BlackDiamond 3.1??
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] fenix2:
Ive just reflashed but screen does not look like a touch one, It looks the same as the official WM5 one but with black back colour..is it right??
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] theonlyone23:
is this ROM preconfigured w/ AT&T settings for GPRS and the like?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sunseaker:
No, not tried that one. WM5SE is the first non official ROM I've tried.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sunseaker:
The screen will look like it does on the pictures on the first page. Look at Rev4 of this ROM if you want the touch look and touch cube.

Alternatively try the pointui.com UI which is quite slick and looks promising. It's not a ROM but a new UI so can be installed on any ROM.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] theonlyone23:
does this ROM have GPRS/Edge settings built in? ie, can when I flash, will the phone be internet ready?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
No, it does not have AT&T settings built-in, it will detect your network settings if you run the Network Wizard that is in Control Panel of this ROM :)

contacts??

Thanks dferreira, I'm really enjoying your rom.:)

But of course I am a noobie at this and I have a problem.:confused:

I'm having a problem viewing my contacts.

I have them saved on my SIM card but I don't see them.

I tried to sync my contacts from my PC and that didn't work also.:mad:

Is there something special I need to do?

I don't know what to do so I'm asking again.

Thank you

Hi Ive reflashed with ver 4 and ver5 but the screen does not look like the one on the first page..it only turns black background but the same as original rom..what happens?

thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
The ROM hides the SIM contacts by default... You'll need Sim Manager app to copy them from SIM to the phone in order for you to see them. Or you can edit the registry and enable them again:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Phone]

"ShowSIM"=dword:00000001 ->0 to disable, 1 to enable
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sunseaker:
I don't know what's happening with your set up. I think you should go back to the basics and start from the beginning. Is your device a G3 or G4? Then make sure you are properly unlocked. Run unlock again and make sure you are properly and fully unlocked. Then flash the TMO2.26 ROM then flash the V4 or V5 WM5SE ROM. Follow every step fully and make sure it has completed correctly before moving onto the next step.

My K-Jam flashed OK and I got the screens as indicated on the 1st page these threads. You must be ding something wrong if you are not getting the same.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] fenix2:
My K Jam is a G3 and I bought it unlocked, anyway Ill run the unlock soft and try again..lets see whats going on.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
There are 2 different locks... SIM Unlock (which is probably what you have) and CID Unlock (this one EVERY PDA comes with Locked, unless you unlock it with the tools XDA provides). You need the CID Unlock to do it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sunseaker:

Comm Manager Font

Installed WM5SE_rev5 .I love this ROM..

However after installing the Arabtizer software, the font in comm manager gets messed up.

I know that a hard reset would solve the problem , bu I need the arabic language there. and this problem happens right after installing Arabtizer.

Any idea how this can be solved ? ( i.e. som registry tweak, replacing the ttf font file... which font is used in the comm Manager ? ) thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
Messing around with the registry won't brick your device :)

You have TaskManager from dotfred already on the ROM, its the last icon on the quicklauncher that's in the Today Screen. Do you see the arrow pointing down on the top right when you open TaskManager? Tap it and a menu will appear, choose RegEdit and then go to:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Phone]

and change the value of ShowSIM to 1, thats about it.

"ShowSIM"=dword:00000001

After changing this to 1, press and hold the power button, it will say that the phone is going to turn off. Just say yes and your contacts will be visible from the SIM.

s200 is not a wizard device! You'll brick it if you flash it....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
This ROM was not intencionally overclocked to 240MHz... so your device might be having some troubles handling the clock speed...

I've been away from flashing for these days because of studies... I'll be back with rev 5.1, as soon as I can. Stay with rev4 if your device can't handle rev5.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
See the error "FILE OPEN" ?

That means that you haven't copied the nk.nbf file that is on the root folder into the CID Unlocked folder!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
You have to flash another ROM over it. You'll need to CID Unlock your device, and then you can flash any ROM, but with caution...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dferreira:
If I'm not mistaken the font is tahoma.ttf, which is the font that comes with every standard ROM. If the Arabtizer messes around with the fonts, there's nothing I can do :\ See if the file tahoma.ttf is still in the Windows folder. If it is, you can try and delete it, so that the Arabtizer font kicks in instead of tahoma's. Maybe that will fix it ;)

Hi guys,

I'm somewhat of a re-noob.

I got my MDA the day Tmobile US started offering back in Q1 2006.

Was on the forums for months b4 and for months after my purchase...and I have cid-unlocked and flashed my rom several times then.

I'm currently running Xelencin's 2.21 Rom. (yes this is ancient 06 stuff)

IPL: 2.21

SPL: 2.21

It did what I wanted so I got comfortable and fell off the forums and stopped being updated.

My question is now, can I just straight forward flash rev5 without any problems? or has there been other things that need to be done first.

Do i have to reflash down to a 1.xx rom ?

Also I now have Vista (my XP pc crapped out). There's a sticky on how to get AS working on Vista so I'll follow that. But once that in place and my MDA is sync...

Can I can just go ahead and run rev5?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. How do I get to bootloader screen again...lol...i kno...i'm a noob all over again.

I know someone who has an old 8125 and might not be using it anymore. Would you be interested in it if he's willing to give it up? I can't say for sure that he will, and I also don't want to push you if you're fed up with all this work.

Thanks guys for the support.

Actually, sometimes the right step is moving backwards, that's why I kept cooking for WM5 :) But right now, my priorities aren't a PDA. For now, I'm settling for one old scholl Nokia 3310.

I do miss my faithfull Wizard, which besides the years and usage, kept me pushing the limits on it.

Maybe someone could continue developing for WM5, continue where I left off. I used the HyperCore Kitchen for my cooking + some hex editing to make some stuff work on WM5. I can keep making the apps compatible with WM5, but I can't test the building of the ROM's. So, if anyone is willing to cook and test, I'd love to help compatiblelize the WM6 apps for WM5 :)

How to hide contacts on sim card?

I've been using this Rev.5 ROM for about a month now and am quite happy with it. The only problem that annoys me is that for some reason the contacts from my sim card are also showing up in messaging and phone applications but they don't show up when viewing Contacts.

So when I try address a sms to a recipient I get the contacts from the sim also listed together with the contacts from the phone s it show duplicate names. The same happen when I dial a number, the names are duplicated in the list of matching recipients.

Is there a registry hack to completely hide the sim contacts?

I don't really want to delete the SIM as I sometimes place it into another 'basic' phone so I need the numbers. The thing is on my previous ROM (The K-Jam official ROM) I wasn't having this problem so I assume that there is some registry entry somewhere to prevent the SIM contacts from showing up.
