The best rom EVA!

I said it before and ill say it again this has to be the best rom so far. I have a at&t tilt and i just upgraded to spl 3.56(big big improvement in performance) and after trying almost all the newer radios and i settled with radio 1.70.19.09 and so far everything from batt to performance to gps is ultra smooth and fast.

Gps connects within secs and i just talked for 11mins and the battery did not decrease - not even by 1%. Lovin it!! I just saw the donations section and im going to donate some money(it isnt much but every little bit helps right).

Thanks again!

Tell us more about the radio.

Sounds interesting and I haven't seen many using it.

@all:

Will it work and perform in the US?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] shazzy84:
radio 1.70.19.09

Yea, i was surprised myself because the popular radio is the emonster radio(1.71.09.01) and before i tried that with spl 3.29 and it was great. But with the spl 3.56 with radio 1.70.19.09 this rom seems to flow. (radio 1.65.20.29 and radio 1.70.19.09 performance both great but 1.70.19.09 seemed to work the best).

I live in the US and this radio works great!

Here are a few test (general tests) with backlight on halfway

I was surprised that gps connects within seconds(like3-5secs) and it doesnt really take up much battery(3minutes+ of usage with every 1% battery).

wifi is the same- battery doesnt seem to drain as quickly(i can get a good 4mins of wifi youtube vid usage with every 1% battery drainage).

phone is great (i talked for about 10+mins with not even a drop in battery although my phone backlight was off).

The older radios wont work(cause the camera screen goes black) and of the newer radios ive tried 7 of them. (ill try the others very soon).

Hard Reset, installing... and... nothing in registry. Files are present, and all other CABs it's applying, but no one xml-file. Help! :)

@shazzy84

Thank you and thanks for letting us know!

I always suspected that certain SPL work better with certain radios etc, but I haven't tested many other configurations beyond SPL 3.29.

FWIW I keep it updated so you can have a look at "compatibility" on page1, all the radios listed as "Tested OK" were tested by me with hSPL 3.29, the ones that are "reported OK" were reported by users with same or other SPLs (links to users posts are there).

However, on the other hand - and as a note of caution for anyone reading it: same radio version on same SPL may work better for a user on i.e. Eastern US provider's network while it may be a poor experience for someone using networks in Western Europe and vice versa, so there is no "one best readio" for everyone.

@ndn715 @tyguy

thank you :)

@Equuleus

The part of SDConfig you've posted above seems right, so either you have another Reset command somewhere before it in your SDConfig (if i.e. you based it on pre-set SDConfig from eXtPack and you've just added your lines at the end), or there is something not right with paths to these XMLs (make sure they are in the folder XML inside the folder SETUP on your SD) or the XMLs itself are not written properly.

That's about all possibilities I can think of right now.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Equuleus:
Ok, let's try..

I have this one:

on a root of my SD (Storage Card).

After HR and customization device restarted and I go to Start->Settings->Owner Information: nothing, name is empty.

That can be wrong? I read everything and trying to check like written here:

hi there good work on the rom, I absolutely love it super fast and stable...

just have one thing with photocontacts....i have changed the default ringing in photocontacts(can assign to other ringtones)...but then after leaving it idle a while or when someone calls in, it revert back to the "default" ringtone...

ps. this only happen to unknown callers (where it is "default" under photocontacts ringtone)

1. yes my ringtones are on main memory (I put it in my documents)

2. my other assigned callers has no problem ringing, only the default ringtone doesnt stick

3. has tried many times, with soft reset and stuff to get the memory to stick ..also can't

You can't just have the "Oleg Ivanilov" for "Owner" and for "Name" :D

"Owner" has to be binary and match "Name" "Email" and "Telephone" - read deeper into the UC thread, it is explained there how to do it.

Your SDConfig.txt is correct, your owner.xml is not.

Hard SPL 3.56 rules with 1.70.19.09 radio!

Dear -888-,

I also tried and can confirm that the radio 1.70.19.09 with the Hard SPL 3.56 and your eOS_4_888_FiRe_ppD are running awesome together. I was using the 3.29 Hard SPL and it was fine, but two days ago I tried to change for the 3.56 and could confirm that my Kaiser is REALLY faster with it. :eek:

If i change it it works untill the next reboot.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] tyguy:
Seppl - did you restore old settings from a different ROM or did you perform a clean flash?

On a clean flash it shouldn't happen on a restore the likelihood is pretty high.

Download SPB Pocket Plus and assign them and look if they stay after reboot.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] tyguy:
SPL / Radio and more

First off I'm not a traitor even though my signature may state a different ROM. IF I would be a cook I'd take 100% FiRe base & Manila2D update 19b and cook it together!!!

I flashed the last week quiet a few amount of ROMs to play with, plain and integrated ones and run currently integrated but I'm not 1000% sure if I keep it 'cause there are some minor issues with BT, BTAudio on (re-route through A2DP enabled headset to AUX in the car) and the GPS.

Sometimes either one just switches off but I'm still investigating if there is any pattern. This NEVER happened with FiRe BTW!

I also played with hardSPL and found the following perhaps very interesting facts:

3.56 seems to work better (in terms of faster) on the non front camera Kaiser's (like the AT&T Tilt) and it seems to work better (again faster) on AT&T based 6.1 ROMs but it doesn't like 6.0 based ROMs, there 3.29 is the better choice.

With 6.1 ROMs I had no hangs, while 6.0 and hardSPL 3.56 hung on heavy action (multiple programs open + GPS + BT enabled).

In terms of Radio's I tested Kaiser 1.70.19.09, Kaiser 1.65.21.18, Niki Radio 1.65.24.36 and Neon 1.58.25.17.

1.70.19.09 has IMO the best phone reception and hangs on to 3G like Cliffhanger to the rope but, under 3G it draws more power than all the others though the downloads are more reliable (did I say it hangs on to 3G if anyhow possible). GPS is also superb with all rOMs I tested.

Best compromise phone wise is for sure the plain old 1.65.24.36 while in my area GPS lock took some time after a hard reset. If you need a long lasting battery use the Neon 1.58.25.17 though you may have a less superb GPS signal (in average 1 satellite less).

after reading through a lot of pages I assume that chefs using an HTC base ROM and/or having a HTC not branded Kaiser prefer hardSPL 3.29 but for the US and non front camera users I'd suggest 3.56 because (at least on my phone) the boot time from power button to Manila2D loaded is at least 5-6 sec. less than with 3.29.

Thought I share my findings.

Happy Halloween and a Great Weekend!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] -888-:
Great observations, tyguy! (and don't worry, nobody thinks you're any 'traitor' LOL!)

I'd add my own 'good configuration' that I have noticed (works without problems on AT&T in US, Rogers in Canada, various western european networks in UK/France/Germany/Austria and Switzerland, and in HK - thats where I have try it): hSPL 3.29 + official radio 1.65.17.56. Radio reception was good, battery life was good, and GPS worked fine everywhere as well.

(I have moved to radio 1.62.20.29 since then, which works IMHO slightly better in North America).

You have to use map versions that are for your Tom Tom version.

I've been great TT fan, but for past 2 years they create so many problems with their software that I have ditch it for other aps (iGO has basically all the same features).

I understand your frustration, but how is it ROM related :rolleyes: if your Tom Tom wouldn't run or couldn't have been installed for any reason then we could dig in the ROM and search for problem, but it is Tom Tom's "own internal" problem and short from cracking your version of maps to run with TT version you have installed there isn't much I could do for you here.

Radio 1.70.18.02

So i actually tried all of the newer 6.1 radios. It seems that radio 1.70.18.02 is one of the better radios. Compared to 1.70.19.09 it seems to be equal in performance and better in battery life. From my tests radio 1.70.18.02 is better in battery than radio 1.58.25.17. Im running SPL 3.56.

In case anyone has not tried radio 1.70.18.02 then i recommend you try it and check to see if it works for you(If rad 1.70.19.09 works for you then this radio may work a little better in terms of battery).

Dynamic Pagepool n Recognizer

Hi -888-,

I just flashed my Tytn with the ppD version yesterday and I found it's awesome in term of speed and stability. last night I found that some of installed apps we're not working as if it was gone from the storage. perhaps it has something to do with the Dynamic memory management as you described on your explanation about difference between fixed and dynamic page pool. I'm downloading the 6MB page pool version to see if the same issue come out again.

I also found that when I switch from keyboard to letter recognizer, it takes about 5sec to show the letter recognizer. is this normal to take this long or there's something wrong with my system.

other than that, I thank you for sharing such great ROM.

@SuperOlas - Pagepool and icons disappearing

That's actually totally unrelated and can happen with any ROM and any SD card. Most of the cases the icon reappears as soon as you tab on it.

Reason: Power mgmt. may react the SD to slow for the GUI, GUI displaying a broken link. You could check the pwr management settings in adv. Config.

Did you run HTC Connection Setup included in the ext. cabs? Should detect your provider and set up the entries. DO CHECK THE PROXY SETTINGS after running this cab!!!

Accent, this is really strange.

I flashed eOS from beta to final flash other ROMs and flashed back and have to say that eOS is and was the only ROM not giving any problem.

I would do in that order:

Hard reset

Install tilt keyb fix if you have a tilt

Connection setup (check proxy afterwards)

MMS 4x or 5x whatever you prefer

Adv. Cfg 3.2 or 3.3

Soft reset and check if internet works.

Install TomTom if it works (actually it should)

Skyfire 08xxx

If this is done I'd install M2D 19b

I did it several times with ZERO problems.

The only unknown for me in your config is TomTom

but I'm sure in this thread and community TomTom works with WinMo 6.1 and has to work with this ROM if your version is compatible with 6.1

Default assis. GPS is off check first but beside this I bet your problem comes from another app.

Though cooked in some apps simply have a problem to recognize the right version of NetCF. Example WeFi complain bitterly that parts are missing.

Download and install NetCF 2.0 or 2.0 SP1 (yes I mean two dot zero). It is the wrong assumption that 3.5 includes all 2.0 plus extensions and enhancements (I posted this before). You CAN install netCF on the SD card w/o any problems and I'd even include it in my default UC or Sashimi install of applications.

Just to make it clear:

videocalls over your provider's cellullar network work with TYTN II only.

It won't work on AT&T Tilt.

You have to install HTC Dialer to have this option in your dialer, built-in Windows Mobile's own dialer doesn't have this capability, same as ported dialers like the one that come with Manila. In other words: use HTC Kaiser Dialer if you want cellphone-to-cellphone videocalls capability.

And you have to be on a so-called "high speed" cellullar connection (3G or H icon have to appear).

post your screenshots to any online image hosting sites, i.e. HERE

Its strange, becaiuse even if you make bitmap screenshots they are just 240x320 (225kB each). You could put them in ZIP and you'll be able to post 8MB worth of them in one file, or you can save them as PNGs or JPEGs and they would be small enough too...

Exactly, I can't agree more.

(As for screenshots, I think he is using the ScreenCpature app from eXt.Pack, it takes bitmpas on the phone and they are larger than 20kB per pic as allowed on this forum)

My first guess would be your battery is starting to give up, assuming it is Kaiser's standard battery. That's how it start to show usually (I've replaced mine this summer). I've experienced this on all my phones the same way. In short: 1st it starts to give weird status info, next it'll hold less'n'less charge, and finally you won't be able to charge it anymore.

At this stage if you discharge it fully and charge it back to full (without turning on your phone while charging) it may start showing more accurate readings for a while again, but I'm almost sure you have maybe few more months of live left in it at best.

Another explanation would be that it is normal - but only if you use extended battery (like the one I'm using - 3000mAh).

Those are made of 2 standard batteries cobbled-up together into one battery and they usually never give out accurate readings (it is accurate only when it was just fully charged hehe), I just ignore it and when it shows low readings (like 10%) I just reinsert the battery and it always shows 40+% again.
