Hi,

how many time you need to release the new rom? XD

it's possibile to include the touch friendly function as diamond in all menu of phone??:confused:

sorry for my english, and thank for your very good work!!!!!

Just download, copy on the root of your microSD card the Manilla2D UC package available in the first post...Hard reset, and let it install.

hi spocky,

I'm am a chinese user (Hong Kong), Can you help me to build a [Ks20] WM6.1 KisS20.4 Rom (5.2.20755) in chinese version ? Or teach me how to do this ? Thanks a lot !

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Lemark:
I think it is better for you to go to a Chinese forum to ask about it. Chinese cookers have all the necessary experience and knowledge of building a Chinese rom (ask 温哥华来客 in www.52lg.com for example). Moreover, cooking a Chinese rom on the base of an english rom is very different from cooking a german or russian rom out of it. You need to integrate a different wince.nls in xip.bin. And as you may know the wince.nls file is responsible for displaying asian regional informations and Chinese characters. Maybe you already know much more than what I've said. Sorry if so ;)

Hi,

I got german 20.4 Rom and finally installed manila2d out of UC package.

I already found out that Audiomanager would not work until i copy german m2d language file into windows folder:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2732343&postcount=6

but I still cannot add any programs to the m2d programs launcher. I already tried creating "Start Menu/Programs" and "Program Files" but still no reaction when hitting the + in the program launcher.

Anybody knows where the launcher is searching for the shortcuts to add??

I also dont have any texts in the preferences tab (except version nr on last column) or comm manager - only the pictures and the switch, maby i got the wrong language files?

Someone mentioned the problem here on page 70 i think, but i read all over and there was no solution.

regards

PS. I found it! :)

Had to rename all 0409.mui files in /windows to 0407

... BUT has anyone gotten the manila location tab to work? it wont start google maps from there :( I can only add locations to the list!

I could not rename jbed.0409.mui and flashresource.0409.mui to 0407 cause these are files on the rom ... maby this is important?

hey guys,

I tried several dialers for my KS20 but Im just facing problems and bugs...

With Paul's dialers I cant get Smart dial (Smart Dial is the feature that after entering some numbers it shows me the contacts fitting to those entered numbers right?) and the "CALL" button is titled "END"...

Are there any WM6 Dialer skins that just skin the original dialer?

Help concerning that is much appreciated!!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xtc.sanchez:

My TCPMP version is the one present in UC package.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xtc.sanchez:

[*]ALSO BE SURE TO HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR NV2 (it should be made automatically if you flash in non-emergency mode)

[*]Depending on your phone, move the files from branded or unbranded folder into root rom folder (so that they are side by side with flash.bin). You should now have a folder containing 10 mbn files + 1 bin file. Note that if your phone is branded, you need to use branded folder files, not doing so may result in phone not functionning anymore. The same goes for unbranded. (if you made a mistake, don't panic, you should be able to recover a working phone by reading raykisi thread listed below)

Hello, I'm a pretty noob with theses kind of things :rolleyes: Can enyone please expain to me how you can make a back-up of youre NV2 files?

And I cant find my root rom folder, I know that I have an Unbranded phone.

Serious problem here: WiFi is lost from connection manager... It happens with spocky's ROM, with the official Rom 10g and whatever i've tried...

It happens after 1-2-3-10 days after i upgrade the ROM... I dont think the problem has to do with the programms i install because i use the same 8-9 programs 1 year...

Any help before i contact LG?

I built an updated UC with refreshed cabs, and the new M2D IOLITE build22 included (mixed with some previous 19 cabs for compatibility purpose). I just hard reseted my KS20, and all features seem to work pretty well.

If there's some people interested, or spocky himself in order to refersh the initial UC release, I can post it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mulky:
wow, m2d build22, yummy.. :p

btw just to make sure, how stable is that ? and do the hard reset is really necessary ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Stable, it is with what I have included (audio management is ok, album too, and .19 release's task manager). I use Youtubeplay (just copy all the content of the Youtubeplay directory in Windows, and rename the youtubeplay.exe in youtube.exe, and the Intenert tab link works).

Build 22 consumes a bit more memory, but better scales with Operal opened for example.

I tested the M2D cabs previously one by one without Hard reset, but it's really not recommended. A good hard reset could avoid some conflicts, and for now, I did not encounter flaws.

I won't try to enable the footprint features (waste of time for ks20), but I will try other non-resolved features as HTC Youtube, or Stream player.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
I'm French, but I use a WWE rom to avoid compatiblity problems that can occur with translated roms. I did not encounter the problems you're talking about the Audiomanager, and I don't use the extend weather tab. I can't help you on this.

Softkeys work, and I can edit them with M2DC without problem, background to.

The landscape Album is a known bug, but doesn't affect the running of the program (in fact, it's quite usefull).

Did you HR your device to install the M2D ? It could be a simple layout conflict, or it' needed to enable a localisation add on as in the .19 set.

WM 6.5

finally it's officially announced here,

http://www.phonearena.com/htmls/Windows-Mobile-6.5-is-official-article-a_4111.html

is it possible to use in my lovely KS20..:D:D:D
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
You should not expect too much things with 6.5. The last build used with Blueangel devices (which has pretty similar specs, but is known to be more flexible and efficient than KS20 thanx to the Xscale) seems pretty usable, but it's a less "driver sensitive" device than LG's.

With all the good apps and UI you can add on a stable 6.1, a early build of 6.5 won't give you so much more.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] minisurfeur17:
Hey,

I tried majorasshole's package with the new version of manilla2D (With hard reset) . As he said, it takes a bit more memory but I think it's more stable than the previous version.

If you want to install it on the french 2.04 version of the rom (and not the WWE like majorasshole), you must install the "Localisation.cab" from Spocky UC package, otherwise you won't get the texts in manilla.

At last, and if you're like me and don't use them, a good way to reduce memory footprint is to deactivate Photo, Music and Internet Tabs in M2DC.

Hope this helps!

PS: I also tried the last version of Opera mobile from HTC Iolite (you can find it on xda), it's running like a charm, fast and stable!

Hello spocky12,

How to take out the Autoprofile appl. from localized rom and insert in ks20.4?

P.s. good job!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
First, extract the rom. In OEMMISC folder, you'll find a file called images._

rename it to images.zip and open it. In NetworkProfiles folder, you'll find xml files. Just copy them into your phone in windows\networkprofiles and then autoprofile should list the operators you've just added.

Before flashung I want to be sure that the ROM Kiss 20.4 WWE taht is in the first opos is UNBRANDED. Is it?

Thanks spocky
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] giboks20:
It's stated in the upgrade instructions. Please read it carefully:

Upgrade Instructions:

* FIRST OF ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW WETHER YOUR PHONE IS BRANDED OR UNBRANDED

* ALSO BE SURE TO HAVE A BACKUP OF YOUR NV2 (it should be made automatically if you flash in non-emergency mode)

* Depending on your phone, move the files from branded or unbranded folder into root rom folder (so that they are side by side with flash.bin). You should now have a folder containing 10 mbn files + 1 bin file. Note that if your phone is branded, you need to use branded folder files, not doing so may result in phone not functionning anymore.

I want to ask one question. Is it possible to have an incomplete wm6.1 on ks20. I'm thinking off a bad flash procedure (something went wrong in the flashing stuff and something was forgotten to be copied onto the device by the flashing program)?? My device sometimes acts a bit strange. On hkg10a+PL10e there were no problems... Any advice. Question is "aimed" to spocky12.

Thanks for reply in advance.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Wonderkik:
Can you give more details? What happens exactly? I think it isnt possible to have an incomplete OS. At least the phone wouldn't boot.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MatG:
I have problems when using manilla and opera via wi-fi. It ends connection on first start. On the next one it works ok but in important situations when you need a fast connection via w-fi it can be a bit anoying. Thurthermore manilla doesn't work properly. When i selct the location tab it's like a picasso painting... Full of colours but nothing readable and the option to auto reply on sms and new message from the sms tab doesn't work. and the manilla version is from IOLITE v22.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Deosneos:
This might be a bit of a daft question but I did some searches and didn't find an answer. Can I backup the entire "ROM" from my KS20 so I can restore it to it's current state should I install another rom?

It's a dutch unbranded ROM and that's not on the list, so...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MatG:
The only way to "backup" rom is to dump it on your pc... There is no other way to save your rom before flashing. Search the forum for further info. There was a thread about dumping a rom. Although it's a bit difficult to dump a rom.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Deosneos:
I read that but a question remains unanswered in this thread, will I be able to flash my phone with that dump in the same way it's described here?

I know this may seem like a total "newbie" question, but I'd like to inquire about the LG KS20 which i've just purchased. I'm based in Australia, and i've purchased the phone under LG Australia Warranty.

With this ROM, will it work perfectly fine If I follow instructions to the letter?

I just want to confirm if it will work before I mess about with my new phone. As well, if I ensure I have a backup, will I still be able to restore the phone completely in case something goes wrong?

Thanks in advance,

David Harrison.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] breakeven-:
i think you wont mess up as long as you follow the instructions such as back ur .nv2 etcetc. this rom works perfectly fines on my LG-KS20 and im based in Singapore. and yes it's possible to restore the old backup i think.

waiting for the next release from spocky12. =)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
There is no way to get it "exactly as out of the box" if you flash with a new rom, except if you have the original lg dz file. As there are some original English roms available, this shouldn't be a problem, I think they are pretty much the same.

Check my answer here if you want to create a backup of your rom that you can flash back to your phone, but note that it won't be exactly the same as what you have now, and that even if it's not very difficult to make, you need to understand what you're doing so that you don't take any risk.

As for this rom working perfectly fine, I can't tell you for sure, but several thousand people downloaded this rom and not much complained about it (ie, it shouldn't be worse than lg official roms).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] PauloJ5:
I hope most of them donated. Will you make a 6.5 Kiss - or is it way to early ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
Well, donators are on the first page, thanks to them. Unless you consider 0.5% as a high statistic, I think "most" definitely doesn't apply here. I'll have to find a better way to become rich ;)

As for WM6.5, not until a stable version is released (there are still many bugs with it), there should be an intermediate version if I manage to fix ks20 bugs on new wm 6.1 builds.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] David Harrison:
Sorry for a second question; I just would like to know what sort of optimizations have been made - as in, how much RAM is generally available after flashing this ROM on a fresh-KS20?

Thanks in advance,

David Harrison.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] MatG:
One question. Is there any info about some better graphic drivers in wm 6.5?? ... And the free ram problem??
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
@David Harrison : KisS20.4 is not doesn't have much free ram (less than official lg roms, due to wm6.1). On first boot, (no apps installed) you should have something like 33Mb available. Next release should be better on this point (at least 10Mb more) ;)

@MatG : Graphic drivers are specific to one device and thus are not released by microsoft. This means that Wm6.5 won't change much (only the generic part of the api) IMO. As for free ram, I'm waiting for a stable release to say wether it's better or not.
