Is this the new Windows Mobile Version, Microsoft is going to release soon?

I thought it looks like this: http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2007/12/03/windows-mobile-61-standard-in-100-pictures/

Does it have the new features? I read that the SMS system got some improvements.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Re-Mi:
Okay,

I just flashed the Dutch version, no problems so far (but you knew that)

I feels like a base :P:P

but once again nice job, the only real thing missing for me is the 5/ 6 tab home plugin. ( will look trough the other extracted roms i got for the dutch version of that or Noonski beats me to it and delivers you a version)

The rest of the programs can be installed with the UC compliance once you added that.

Owh yeah what i did miss (not a big problem because UC can handle that) is the networkwizard at start up (but then again it's not really needed once UC is added)

Greetz,
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
Just keep the dutch stuff coming in... I really need to clean it out first though
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
Yes... I noticed that IE slows down and i get an error message that a script is slowing down something.

Is it the same in the durch version?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] odin568:
will you release a 1.0.3 which fixes that? Don't want to flash my elf that often ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
Merlot V1.04 is available for download....

Working on the dutch version at the moment...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Re-Mi:
After the problem with the forum, did you manage to download the dutch files?

Greetz,
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
jep... I got those.

How do you call the storagecard in dutch?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Supercows:
You call that "Uitbreidingssleuf" :)

I am using the Touch Surface Rom for 2 days now. Maybe tonight I am updating to this new ROM. I want to help testing the Dutch ROM :)

Are there things I need to know before updating??
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
Thanks,

Ongelovelijk (unbelievable?)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Re-Mi:
O do we ?

I think(know) we call it "Opslagkaart" the "uitbreidingssleuf" is the little hole where the "Opslagkaart" goes.

You posted it yourself earlier in this thread Pkoper !

greetz,

btw

Almost, it's ongelofelijk or ongelooflijk depends on the moment of use :P

Greetz,

[Touch GSM ROM Development] sholvah:
Hey,

I would really like to Flash my Rom, but my xda nova won't let me.

Every time that I try, the process stops at 3% and my PC gives me

the following error message.

ERROR [270] : UPDATE ERROR

The image file is corrupted. Please check your Update Utility

Since I'm using the latest original O2-rom, I already tried the cid-unlock,

but I still get the same error.

My actual Rom-version is 2.21.207.1 GER. I#m running the Update on a Vista PC.

Thanks for your help,

sholvah

P.S.: I also have another problem, but it's not that important. I sometimes have to plug in the USB three or four times,

before the ActiveSync is activated. The PC always recognizes the USB connection (sound) but sometimes I even have to reboot

both device and PC to establish an ActiveSync connection.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
There are some really awesome WWE ROMs around, but not one GER...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Re-Mi:
Btw.

What are the big changed between .02 and .04 ? removed tmobile trash or something bigger ?

Greetz,
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Knorx_Touch:
Hi,

thanx a lot for your wonderful rom. I tested all of your versions on my elf. There is a problem with the so called 'Autovervollständigung' (auto-suggestion?) in SMS. I've enabled it, but it does not work. The spell checking works fine.

Any hints?

Thx and Greetinx,

[Touch GSM ROM Development] abyss02:
Hi sholvah,

1. You have to cid-unlock you elf/elfin - look for "uspl" or "unlock" (there is a sticky thread here) ... afterwards it will work - i had this prob too.

2. Go to Start - Settings and look for the "USB to PC" Icon. Disable the "erweitere Netzwerkfunktionen aktivieren" (dont know the exact translation for a wwe rom, but there is just one item to disable :-))

How do I install this rom?? I only get a .nbh file
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Re-Mi:
Something tells me this is your first time flashing ;)

What you have tot do is find a rom with the rest of the files in the installing pack (take the surface one from my sig).

Replace the .nbh file from the surface one and replace it with the merlot one. and run the flash application.

Greetz,
[Touch GSM ROM Development] crazyray:
Thnx!!

Not the first time :) But I wasn`t sure for replacing that file with another .nbh file.

Now i can test the dutch beta :)

I tested te NLD version yesterday, I must say that it worked fine :)

I didn't see strange things en the speed was better than the ROM I used before.

But i misted some programs and handy tools.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
The beta was just to test if things work the way they should. A release version is being tested at the moment.

Its also good to know which device you have (ie. ELF or ELFIN) if reporting any observations as I only have an ELF to test on.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Supercows:
I have an Orange Touch (elf).

I see know that when I open Internet Explorer that the pictures are huge. Not like normal.

Can you give me the release version for testing??
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
You an change that in menu-view-textsize...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Knorx_Touch:
Word-suggestion won't work - Update

I installed PCM Keyboard and now the normal keyboard works, but I don't know why? :confused: ?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sholvah:
I was now able to flash the rom (uspl wasn't installed properly).Thanks to abyss02. But I already encountered quite a big problem with the rom.

I had a long call, and my screen switched off automatically (I think that's normal). The problem was, that I was not able to switch it on again. The Power Button had lost its function completely, I wasn't even able to shut down the phone. In the end, I had to press the reset button.

Did anyone have the same problem?

I'm using a xda nova (elf) from o2 Germany.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] crazyray:
Tested the Dutch version (on my t-mobile Elf). It works very nice. Stable and not discovered strange things.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] abyss02:
Just peanuts, but ...

...

@ sholvah: No sorry, did not have this fault at all

@pkoper: Changed to 1.04 - The rom is getting nicer and nicer, the startupscreen is amazing ...

And you changed the "edge"-symbol, nice work ...

Some little bugs:

1. My Documents\Meine Klingeltöne still does not work, have to rename it to My Documents\My Ringtones.

2. When you want to configure an application to the launcher (htc home), the mask is still wwe (Select and Cancel instead of Auswählen and Abbrechen, also the title here is Select Program)

3. Perhaps you can change the Aku in the Registry (HKLM\System\Versions) to default ".0.4.2", so that everyone can install BB Connect without customizing.

4. I am missing PHM RegEdit and WinRar

These are really peanuts, but perhaps you would like to fix these ... and dont forget: I am your biggest FAN :-)

CU

A.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sholvah:
well, I'll see if this error occurs again.

Otherwise I really like the rom. It's far better than the o2-rom I used before.

Thanks a lot.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
No Comment.

Can you confirm if the cab i posted earlier on So Koper knows where to look for a change.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Re-Mi:
He didn't ment you, you're not normal active ... you're hyperactive posting around 20+ posts a day :P
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Supercows:
When is it possible to test the normal NLD version, not the beta? I can't wait tot try it. Is de NLD version immediately @ 1.04?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
As soon as the NLD versie is finished it will be posted here... fixing UC compliancy at the moment

Dutch Beta

:) Nice, gone try it. Keep up the good work

:confused: I've installed the BetaNLD version. When sending a SMS the message stays in the inbox. When it has been sent it ALSO goes to the sent box.

:p I hope the new NLD will be released soon :p
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Re-Mi:
The developer is encounting some problems with the UC compliants for this rom. When this is solved i think he will release a NLD version. But i used the same rom and i think that's the threated sms function (if it has to be different i would like to know ;))

Greetz,
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Ha yeah it is the threded Funcionality indeed, nromal behaviour.

Wiki has registry tweaks to disable.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] acona:
first: very good job :) .. nice rom

What about adding windows live services to your rom? (cause i know that many people hate it - is there any way to get it (additional) for windows mobile?)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Noonski:
Which Live Services?

WLM is available in German.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
We are still working on it....

Noonski had a look over the dutch version and I will fix stuff there tonight.

The german version has some issues with the registry, some changes in rgu's just don't want to stick.

And UC is giving me some headaches, file copying and provxml works fine... just does not want to install any cabs.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Re-Mi:
And if you start it manually ? i know it's not the solution, but that worked for me ;)

It didn't run on boot but when i started it manually it installed the cabs as it should do.

Problem and Wish

I have a problem in 1.04 that when writing sms, i get no suggestions even if the function is activated... deactivated and reactivated it... doesn't work...

the other thing i noticed:

the cube is very slow the first time i load it after reboot... needs some seconds on each side of the cube to load the text...

one suggestion: can you post somewhere the history to know what has changend and if it is enough to flash? thx
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
I noticed that too, first load is slow, but not only the cube....

[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
1.05? or an older version
[Touch GSM ROM Development] odin568:
i have 1.04...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] abyss02:
Sorry ...

Hi pkoper,

i am very sorry, but the 1.05 IMHO seems not to be a progress.

1. Klingeltöne is not fixed here

2. There are two battery-icons on top of the screen here.

3. regarding the cube, Kalender is not working here (shopstopper).

Also, but thats a matter of taste´:

4. Too much useless ringtones in \Windows (and therefore in memory)

Switching back to 1.04

Hi,

I have 1.0.5 and can't change the visibility of my background picture. WM open it only, with the HTC Gallery.

And I have no Power Point!

And a wish, can u remove ICQ?! That would be great!

Need help!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kenny_hn_mda:
wm6.1 for german elf ... yeahhh ...

some problems with 1.04

1.) when you try to send an new sms in contacts, it opens a new mms. i don't know if 1.05 still fixed this error

often the registercards dissapears, when you use PCMphonepad witrh merlot 1.04 and you cannot change the PCMphonepad back to normal "tastatur"

maybe it would be better to integrate a multimessenger instead of the real icq...

i think slik would be a good option. it's freeware, but english

this time i went back to GTouchIII6MBPagePool, but i would prefere your wm6.1 rom, when it is fixed from its small problems...

greetings
[Touch GSM ROM Development] bootsy:
works brilliant.

good work:)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] odin568:
suggestion

please do not include and replace too many apps!

keep the rom some kind of original... just include the htc apps and hibernate and such basic things... if someone likes other tools than the original microsoft, he can include it himself (like icq...) and make bugfixing only - like sms suggestions missing, calendar from cube doesn't start (btw: rename calendar to Kalender ;) )

i would suggest that you orientate at shadows rom... could you include the style he has (the dark one)?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
Sorry to dissappoint... but a very simple answer: NO

This is my ROM, not Shadows and not HTC. All I do is share what I am doing in my spare time.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] comec:
Hi,

first: Very great job! I have 1.5 and it is very fast and stable!!! :D

But I've got three questions:

1. Is it possible to cosumize the cube? I don't want that for "Music" opens the Audio Manager. Instead of that it shoukd open Windows Media.

2. Is it possible to change the green backgound on the Phone Plugin? I hate this green things... :(

3. I have a tmobile Touch. When I boot the phone I have the awful wallpaper from TMobile. Is it possible to change this???

Thanks alot and greetings from Frankfurt Germany... :cool:

to less memory

Hello,

first: Great Rom! Thanks a lot! Good Work.

I´ve got just one think: I get often the warning: to less "Programmspeicher". I use the Version 1.01. and this ist the reason, why i´ve got to change the ROM. Can you tell me, how much "Programmspeicher" i will have in Version 1.5, after starting?

Thanks a lot!

3. I have a tmobile Touch. When I boot the phone I have the awful wallpaper from TMobile. Is it possible to change this???

yes...it is possible...

first you must again use uspl to unlock cid. the same procedure to enable rom updating.

then use artemis tool. it is not especially for elf, but works perfect...

best use a 24bit BMP or PNG 320X240p

have fun...

i made my own... if you like it...you can use it...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] comec:
Thanks a lot! :D

But is this for the first splashscreen? I mean the first one, when I boot the touch.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kenny_hn_mda:
yes...it is for the first screen/image you can see, when you turn on your touch...

(most roms don't change this bootimage, but it is possible to change it as well, if the rom-cooker want to do this)

memory and AdvancedConfiguration

Hi *,

I have the V1.05 installed on a ELF and I can only say: RESPECT !!!:)

The only problem I have is the low programm memory and therfore have a (maybe strange) questions:

Would it be possible to change the memory allocation in favour of the programm-memory? I have 46 MB of datamemory (which I don't use too much) and I'm regularly running out of programm memory.

Strange question 2:

What do the settings in the Performance effect?

Could it help to do some changes here?

Thanks for your great work.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] pkoper:
Just letting you know that I have not forgotten.... playing with the pagepool at the moment for all the ELF owners out there
[Touch GSM ROM Development] comec:
YES! :D

YOU are my king of the cookers!!!

And when you've done this, please make a vanilla Version...

I don't need all the programs like ICQ, Total Commander, Oxios (Close Apps & Hibernate, Pim Backup, Pocket Screen, DotFred 2.9 and Synco Time, but I can't remove them...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] AsusFreak:
Yes, you're right. A Vanilla would be great.

But I read pkoper is playing with pagepool optimizing. I think with more program memory free I would prefer Merlot as well. Today PDAVIET ROM

delivers more free memory. But I'm looking forward to pkoper's results.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] comec:
But the PDAVIET ROM isn't in german language, isn't it? :confused:
[Touch GSM ROM Development] AsusFreak:
Yes, you're right.

But in my opinion it's the best ROM for Elf in the moment.

Stable, fast and small memory requirements - but: english language, that's right.

But I'm sure, pkoper will solve the pagepool problem. PDAVIET did it as well.

So I'm sure Merlot will do this in the future, too.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] phil_thrust:
STUCK after a while of Merlot V1.05 on ELFIN

i have v1.03 running on an ELF, for about 2 weeks now without problems.

this week i flashed 2 ELFin with v1.05,

first without problems, but the first ELFin was stuck after about 20h uptime;

the other one allready after 1 hour.

i did a lot for recovery:

- hard reset (format fat partition successfull)

- CID unlocked once more

- flash original rom (via tri-color bootloader which finished successfull)

- flashed several other roms for ELFin

- replaced battery

- took out battery for more the 12h and tried again

same result:

after power on (press more the 3 sec the powerbutton) -> i see the bootimage (t-online) but no Version informations (radio, etc...)

for about 15 seconds, then the device turns off again

when the battery starts loading the yellow light turns on, but after a few seconds

turns off again

t-mobile will replace them now, but i am afraid of flashing the new ones again, any idea what might have been the problem?

As you probably already know, I am playing with a 4MB PP version. And I am not to happy with it....

I can get the ELF to have a total of 52 MB of programm memory but it is extremely slow... So i decided to overclock and tested for a day or two. With overclocking it works a charm but the battery drain is enourmous, after a day at work battery went down to 18%.

I would say the Merlot is fast enough as it is so I won't be doing anything with the pagpool at this stage.

At the same time we are looking for the perfect UI.... so far we tried

point UI

ultimate

active ui

multi ui

gsmart

and a few cube replacements

What other ui's do you guys know/use/recommend?

BTW: I'm realy sorry playing with the pagepool didn't bring the wished success. PDAVIET V31B did use PP=6MB. And it's running quite fast without overclocking. Will you spent some time on it in the future again?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] schahn:
Hi, I ran into the same problem you described. I still have no idea, what goes wrong, but I found a possibility to "reanimate" the ELFIN after this.

You may use the "xdanova-update.exe" from O2, which fully recovers the ELFIN. But be aware, this will result in an O2 branded XDA nova. Anyway, the device works well and can be flashed again. Unfortunately I can't tell you, which 6.1 ROM works well on the ELFIN, because I've found none so far.
