[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Evil-Santa:
Hi Guys,

Fairly new here and would like to thank all the people from around the world for the effort they have put in.

I flashed my unit last weekend. I initially used vivi's kitchen, but found that I could not easily activate bluetooth and wireless. So I went back and started using Kozhura's V1g. Everything seems to work well, but have found a few little niggles. Not sure if this is the right place but would like to provide some feedback on it. (let me know if I should do this elsewhere)

Many (all) of the pop up boxes do not have the "ok" button. You can tap where the button is supposed to be and the box will close.

My Gps Software seems a tab slow. Destinator 7. Not sure why any suggestions. (couple of soft resets done)

Have had a few crashes of pocket informant 8, about 6 or 7 crash screens from the product (couple of soft resets done, but prob not required)

Also had a few instances of the unit running slow.

Installed most apps to the cf card except resco explorer, ilauncher, pbar and microsoft reader.

Personally I think Kozhura has done a great job of customising this rom. It cover's everything I need. Keep up the great work and thanks. Also I look forward to vivi's kitchen. Does anyone know if it has been updated to the latest rom yet?

Problems with WM6.1 of Kazhura on 4700 and also with Andy's modifications

Hi,

Edit1: Please ignore the lines below, I installed the first version of Kazhura's R5, which had problems on 64MB hx4700.

However please see my next post with problem about installing Hebrew-language support on Kazhura R5 and his Andy's modifications. The problem doesn't exist in Andy 1e based on Alkor-Kazhura

I tried to install WM6.1 R5 from Kazhura on my hx4700, but after installation my device couldn't start.

I tried soft-reset, hard-reset, clean-reset, but nothing helped - again and again I got to a page writing "Windows Mobile 6.1" (the .1 in red-color), stand I can only install other version. Any idea why?

On the other hands - when I try to install Andy's (Ramses) version 1g, which is actually based on the same ROM of Kazhura, I succeed to install it.

I'm installing using the TTY (BootLoader).

Another issue - when I install the 1g version, I cannot install Hebrew-language support. I succeed to install but can't see the hebrew fonts. Any idea why?

Thanks,

Tidhar

Kazhura R5 versions and Andy's 1e

Hi

For some reason I couldn't install Hebrew-language support on Andy's V1g version (based on Kazhura's R5 version), and also I couldn't install it on the original Kazhura R5.

BUT on Andy's version 1e I succeed (I think this one is NOT based on Kazhura R5, but on a bit earlier version of Alkor-Kazhura).

I tried to install 2 different hebrew versions - Eyron and Paragon, and both didn't show hebrew-letters. The second one actually stuck the device.

Was there any change between 1e to Kazhura R5 (and Andy's V1g) that could cause this problem?

Is there a way to fix it?

Thanks

syson cf plus with SiRF III, any driver for WM6?

Hello,

I have one of these cards, worked fine before moving to WM6.

WM6 works fantastic on my hx4700, just would like to get my CF card back if possible.

When I plug in the card of course I get an "unrecognized card" error...

Any driver and/or procedure to fix this?

Thanks!

Alkor_B2_Ramsses_Kozhura_v1f

Like my previous hybrid based on Alkor's IMGFS and Kozhura's XIP for 19588, but with:

- Wifi improvements, .netCF 3.5, Daylight Savings fix, BTPhonemanager removed and ModemIS included like the Kozhura/Ramsses 19949 1f build

- Uses Kozhura's new nb0 file format for faster flashing and FAT32 internal flash format

- Also contains CAB files to install .netCF 2 over 3.5 (if your app must use 2!) and the HP BTPhoneManager.

I will be experimenting to add the 19591 XIP (from PhamQuang) to this build to see if we get faster performance without the glitches and incompatibilities seen in 19949.

Andy

http://rapidshare.com/files/128224247/ROM_v2.01_B19588_HP4700_B19588.zip.html

Edit: 19591 is not going to be a good XIP basis, as it suffers from the fsreplxfilt filter problem seen in earlier builds...

For some reason, would you teach me how to convert it back to nbf format or also post the nbf file out. Many many thanks

Hi andy,

What's the difference with http://rapidshare.com/files/128224247/ROM_v2.01_B19588_HP4700_B19588.zip.html
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ramsses:
It's just in the old nbf file format - as requested by samcheung - otherwise should be identical.

Andy
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] elparra72:
well, I've changed to this 19588 v1f version but bobble blank and WPA disconnection trouble are still happening. In any case I think is more stable than 19949 but slower :-(

What about XIP porting? I'm reading some posts and new HTC ROMs are using 19591. Older 19591 Roms were based on Xperia but now HTC is using it in its devices. Main improvement is speed.

Thanks !
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ramsses:
Did you recover a backup over the new ROM (this is a bad idea!)?

Bubble breaker is okay for me. I think I may have messed up with the wrong wzcsvc.dll. Use the enclosed version for now - I will make a 1g...

Andy

Edit: regarding 19591, it isn't working properly with the msflash.dll driver - the fsreplxflt driver is not loading correctly... I will try any new ports that come out, but I wouldn't hold my breath...

Andy,

As the rom was updated frequency, would you please teach me how to convert .nb0 to .nbf format instead of post both version here. Thanks in advance.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ramsses:
I didn't convert it, just patched the nbf using the standard tools - i.e. make_imgfs, buildimgfs etc. You can update the nb0 (for your updated wince.nls) in the same way as the nbf file. Tell me what you are trying to do and I will tell you how to do it for the nb0 file.

Andy
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Puzom:
Thanks Andy for the new updates of the ROM. Sticking with v1g as it is fast and stable. Dont want to flash too much either. On v1g all tools run just fine and with 34mb ram can't complain. And with IR not running.......well too bad ;)

Extended battery problem

Hi,

Has anyone had any experience of extended battery on WM6.1 ROMs?

I flashed my PDA with SL61V3 ROM, then I purchased total*power*solution extended battery from eBay, but the battery life was far below my expectations.

I tried latest ROMs (Kozhura's, PhamQuang's) also, but the battery issue remained. Each time, after upgrading, I made a few discharge tests.

I set backlight to maximum, switched wifi on, started mp3 files on PocketMusic, so power drain was approx.600 mAh (I checked this with acbPowerMeter).

After 3 hours or so, I always got low-battery warning.

If I am right, the real capacity was near 1800 mAh instead of 3600 mAh.

This is quite a large difference, is it possible, that WM battery driver causes the problem?

Thanks!

You can use Sktools or similar to disable this warning (which I think was done by default in Sanjay's ROM). I will dig out the registry setting and include it by default in future ROMs.

Hi Andy,

After a weekend testing new 19949 XIP I can write down my sensations:

1.- IR doesn't work fine. I cannot send/receive files using IR. Not very important because I usually use Bluetooth.

2.- Blank bubbles. No changes.

3.- WEP and WAP (PSK) working fine.

4.- Fast and stable.

5.- Opera 9.5.1409 troubles. I'm installing 9.5.1522 to test it.

6.- I backed up previous ROM using SPB Backup 2.0 and restore on this new 949. No troubles detected.

7.- I feel my batery dropping faster than previous other versions, but It's only a feeling,

In conclusion, great!

Possible fix for wifi problems after resuming PDA

Please try this CAB file. It resets the following keys to the WM5 defaults:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\TcpIp\Parms]

"EnableDeadGWDetect"=dword:0

"EnableDHCP"=dword:1

"IpEnableRouter"=dword:0

"IpInitializeRouter"=dword:0

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\tiacxwln1\Parms]

"ResetOnResume"=dword:1

Crucially, it adds the new key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\tiacxwln1\Parms]

"RebindOnResume"=dword:1

This seems to force the DHCP connection to reset after resuming. I have have tried turning off/on my PDA and have not broken it yet (i.e. the connecting but never quite getting there problem)!

Please soft-reset after installing CAB. If it works, I'll put it in the ROM.

make sure you're not using a USB hub and you have it connected to power. flash programming errors usually happen todo with something unrelated to the bootloader and usually unrelated to the rom (because the bootloader verifies it's valid first).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ramsses:
Put back into bootloader mode (hold itask+contacts, press reset, release itask+contacts). Turn off any virusscan, screensavers etc on the PC, make sure the cradle is directly attached to the PC (not via a USB hub), unplug any other unnecessary USB devices and attempt a re-flash.

Thanks chrismrulz and Ramsess your quick reply.

I am sure I direct connected 4700 to CPU usb port and connect power. actually I flashed same 6.1 Rom Image with same method under same CPU. I tried re-flash but the process stopped at same address every time. I am wondering the firmware hardware damaged at address A4000000 by unexpected stop flashing program. is that possible to happen by flash firmware?

BTW, is that any other way (flash software but not HX 4700 bootloader) I can try to re-flash it? any suggestion will appreciate .

TTN7

Hello Andy/ramsses! =)

First of all, Is it possible for you to modify your rapidshare entry in the first page? Because we are not able to download your rom.. Thank you!

I have a problem concerning Tomtom Navigator 7 and the PLUS service (traffic, weather...). Apparently Tomtom detected a PDA and not a PDAPhone and all PLUS service are not available. It says "feature is not available".. =D

-->You do not have any ideas all of you to fix this problem??

That's why I am trying to test differents roms on my Hx4700 and I want to test your rom Andy.

-->I used SL61V3 for a long time and I tryed yesterday to use the last ROM from Kozhura Release 5 (My bad because my PDA is blocked in the first screen actually due to the "64mega RAM" problem. I will try to update with the Release 4 tonight...)

Thank you very much!

EDIT : I have some informations to add.

Test :

Hx4700 TTN6 MAP_V6 : Traffic is working

Hx4700 TTN7 MAP_V7 : Traffic is NOT working

Hx4700 TTN7 MAP_V6 : Traffic is NOT working

Kaiser TTN6 MAP_V6 : Traffic is working

Kaiser TTN7 MAP_V7 : Traffic is working

Kaiser TTN7 MAP_V6 : Traffic is working

Kaiser TN7 installed from Hx4700 : Traffic is working!!!! Sick!!!

Hx4700 TN7 installed from Hx4700 : Traffic is NOT working

I tested with a Touch, a P3600 and a Mio P550... And it is still the same conclusion : For me it is not a file entry or a configuration. It is a registry entry. When I compare the registry from my Hx4700 and my Kaiser concerning tomtom, there is no difference. Maybe tomtom is asking for a registry concerning the phone features???

-_- Have you any ideas?

Have a nice day! =)

It may be TT7 looks at the device type and then equates that with a set of capabilities, so it may be hard-wired in TT7...
