Sorry to hear your leaving the Wizard roms, but looking forward to your A5. I've tried alot of roms and yours has what I need, speed and stability.

Thanks for your hard work and good luck with the Kaiser.

I'm moving on to another phone as soon as one comes out that is as good as the Wizard. My Wizard was about dead before I came across the world of custom roms, now I can't find a new phone that will do more than my Wizard can.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
I just gave my wizard to my girlfriend. :D

she said she wants a new phone... maybe I can convince her that she needs a winMo phone.. especially since she is a writer... journalist.

I will release A5, but it is untested. the kitchen will be uploaded too.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] javibmw:
Thanks for your effort SVI...it looks very well. I have a doubt about what UC means... after installing A4...what can I do with cabs and something about minisd card?

What is the purpose of extended memory? Where should I install new programs to get lower battery drain?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
uc capable is explained in previous posts. (did I not include any read me files and folders?)

it is better to install programs to main memory to save battery. while the program is running, so is the power to the storage card. as long as you keep that in mind, you will see where you install your programs.

you should keep your message attachements on main mem. because tmail.exe is almost always running. I keep pictures on storage card, but that's because I flash so much... and in my experience ... I keep losing my pictures.

it is up to you. you will eventualy get the idea of what you use a lot and what you do
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] javibmw:
Now I have a big big problem...baterry drain...in 8 hours without using qtek, battery decreased from 86% to 34%..beside installing this rom, I had manila beta 4.5, the other from you...and battery last several days using it...

Should I install the extended Rom G3 and then install this again..and battery drain problems would finish?? or are there some registry or uninstall something??

i want to use this rom but It is not useful if I can use it only a few hours.

Thanks in advance ¡¡¡¡¡

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
it may be running an app in the background.

it may be if you flashed without a full battery.

I would recommend this:

flash extended rom

flash the os.

deplete the battery.

charge the battery completely with the device off (untill the led light turns green)

turn on.

I get 2 days out of my battery.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Typically I get down to 50% battery level. I unplug about 7:30 am and it is around 50% when I plug it back around 6 or 7 pm.

Today I changed my setting for email attachments from sdcard to device. We'll see if this increases the battery life even more.

I did set a limit on attachment size to avoid overloading my phone. I get a lot of attachments - why I chose sdcard in the first place.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] javibmw:
I flashed extended ROM with G3 one, then flashed angel. I will try to deplete the battery and charge completely.

Anyway, i have read that there is an option HKLM\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Class\SDMemory_Class , DisablePowerManagement, and set to 0 this option.

Did anybody test it?

There is also a process called poutlook.exe that I will kill.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] wolfgr:
working sweet for me...i dont know how u did it but turning off touchflo i get 32mb free ram!!!

i love u man.thanx
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
POUTLOOK is "pocket outlook". you dont want to kill that process.

power management for the storage cars should be enabled. I remember writing those keys. check the registry...

remember to chargeyour device with the power completely off; not sleeping.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Sorry I hve not uploaded A5 with the kitchen yet. I had my internet cut off and uploading it via EDGE is just not worth it for me.

I will try to upload it this weekend if possible @Starbucks.

I really hate to depend on a coffee shop for internet. :(
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Here it is 3:40 pm and I have taken the phone off the charger at 7:30 this morning. I am now at 66% power. I'm guessing I'll be around 50% or so at the end of the day. Looks like changing my phone to save emails to device instead of card did not effect my battery life.

I know I am using different radio and that is another factor in battery life.

Just thought I'd share my experience.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Double tap WiFi start

I think I figured out the fix for the need to tap twice after a soft reset to get wifi to start in commmanager.

BUT... I need another person to test this.

1. Open your favorite reg editor

2. Go to HKLM\Comm\TNETWLN1\Parms

3. Look for value HTCPreloadWifi

4. Set it to 0x00000001(1)

5. Exit the editor

6. Wait the usual 30 seconds and soft reset

7. Go back to the key to be sure it is set to 1

a. If not, repeat steps above and wait longer

b. If it is, exit editor and try starting wifi in commmanager

Let us know if it worked for you.

A second test would be to stop wifi in commmanager and wait a while. Then soft reset and try starting wifi again.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] docnas:
Sorry to hear that man hope you can get the kitchen out soon ive been dying to get a kitchen based off of your work.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
This is working for me. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3660073&postcount=319

I have made several resets and each time the first tap starts wifi.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
Uploaded Kitchen

I just uploaded it. check first post.

It has MSIM.dll and MSIM.96.dll for English and russian keyboards.

If you are Russian you can thank OLIMO here:

http://3ppc.net/forum/showthread.php?t=11960 :)

If you are not Russian, you can get the original MSIM and MSIM96 from any stock QVGA rom and replace the DLL's (files)

Sorry I have not posted angel 5. it is because I can not cook. don't have the device anymore.. Gave it to my girlfriend. she is making good use of it... except I have no idea how to get her MMS working. have to keep digging unless RORYB is willing to send me a cab :D

Thank you by the way Rory, this thread has benefited greatly thanks to your posts.

Good luck with cooking and please post links to your creations so that I can update the first post I figure that it would help people with rom support if they need it to keep it all in one place.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] javibmw:
what does it mean?? There will not be Angel 5 ¡¡¡¡????

By the way, I made what you told me about deplete the battery and charge completeley being off the Qtek...now...it seems to go better...thanks¡¡¡¡¡¡
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I do not use MMS or SMS. My company who pays for the phone service excludes those services. Here is a cab file of the medianet settings I used to see (may be old). Maybe this will help.

I am still trying to understand cooking. Now I may be switched to Vista-64 machine. There goes some more reading to see if I can even cook on vista.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
Great news for your battery! They say that these batteries do not have a memory... but that is a lie... the devices do!

Thanks for the settings. I will certainly try to see if they work.

As for the Vista-64 you can use VMWARE to set up a virtual machine to run XP. I believe some people have managed to not only cook with it, but flash with it as well.... I have no idea. I run XP.

You could try to do something else: Partition your HDD and make your computer choose which OS to boot. I did that once when I was trying to run Linux before I got impatient with it. Dual boot is a great thing! that way if one of your OS's craps out with a virus the other OS can fix it :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Is the kitchen the start of Angel 5?

Any nice suprises?

Cool graphics?

I will see if I can run it in a kitchen tomorrow to get the ROM put up here.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Graybeard:
Sorry to see you stop cooking for Wizards!

:(

S.V.I.,

I've used your ROM's since August, when my brother-in-law gave me his old Cingular 8125 because, "I want something easier to use and lighter."

It came w/o a SIM, so I can't use the phone, but WiFi works great.

Your ROM's have been the most stable for me. I think Angel is the best of the bunch.

-Thanks! :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I just took a quick look in the package. You mention RCMOD won't fit. So I understand I cannot just put the files in a kitchen and cook.

I will need more time than tomorrow to figure this out.

I am thinking about taking out SAP settings. I do not put contacts in my SIM card and do not have a bluetooth car. I only have a BT headset for calls. Would that remove enough to fit RCMOD?

Anyone else have a suggestion of something to give up to have room?

What if I take out Footprints pictures since it does not seem to work anyway?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] nqnguyen2:
=( sorry to hear you're leaving S.V.I.

now i have another big reason to get a kaiser.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
so ar the only thing i found better on the kaiser is more room and gps. other than that itis not reliable as my old wizard and the keyboard is slw and sometimes unrespnsive. as you can see. + it is heavier. not used to it yet. sigh.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] docnas:
Dont want to sound demanding or anything like that ( cause i am thankful for the A4 kitchen) but i thought u had the A5 kitchen already ready?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] docnas:
Isnt that the kitchen for A4?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I thought it is his work so far on A5. I am still trying to figure out what to remove to fit RCMOD in it.

Maybe we could remove

FWUPDATE in addition to

SAPSettings to make room.

Nevermind, FWUPDATE is already reduced as much as it can be.

Maybe we can reduce the size of the rgu file (8,376) by removing the references to the dll that have been removed?

Anyone else have suggestions what to remove to fit RCMOD?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] docnas:
pimbackup? as its an easy exe file u can keep on ur sdcard.

Ok now this is off topic for the wizard but ok heres my question i also have a htc titan( or mogul) now it has manilla 2d and on first boot im getting around 21 mb free now with angel i was getting around 27-28 once it settled. im guessing the major factor in this was how SVI reduced the images for manilla to its minimal size.Now i want to port the images over to my titan as a theme or even as an OEM for a kitchen so can you tell me how to do it? Thanks!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I cannot translate this. Would you edit to English too?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
He saved some images into the ManilaGFX folder. The others had to stay in windows to work. So his HomesSettings.xml has paths to the other folder.

You could copy all of the files except the exe files. That would be the basis of a theme.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
Manila Theme And XML:

these are located in a cab file which is installed on boot. there are some files required to be in windows and you can get them out of the packages.

OperaMini :

можно найти в Dev/Hacking. придлогаетса в Cab и Oem.

in the future I think it wold better to write in english on this thread. it would help you get answers quicker. :)

as fr as what y could take out: nothing out of the sys folder. oem only. you can try UPX some of the exe's in the oem, but not a single dll that has "res" anywhere in the name. those are usualy about a half of a megabyte, and contain immage files inside them. if you compress ay of them,there is a good chanse that the program associated with thal wil not work propperly. MMS is just one example.

thatsl i canwrite for now.

@S.V.I

I am confused, Your rar file states we cannot fit RCMod, but I ran your kitchen setup and got a nk.nbf smaller than 58,000kb. I thought I saw if it is under 58,000kb it should be okay.

I am going to be in meetings today so I may not get a chance to flash it to see if it works.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] -MyHTC-:
Maximum size of OS.nb is “59,768,832” bytes.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Okay, I took S.V.I's kitchen and used HyperCore to build the OS. The ONLY thing I did to it is change the welcomehead96.png to be A5 instead of A4 since his data in the kitchen states A5. Sorry it is probably a little UGLY, but I have not done much art work. As you will see.

File size of OS.nb is 57,671,680 bytes.

I am in and out of meetings so I have not flashed. So the usual caveats about personal responsibility.

Rapidshare has a limit of 10 downloads Turns out CommManager was missing from the kitchen
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Okay, I am still looking at FWUPDATE. It appears nothing in the rgu file is needed. It references dll files that were removed. In tracing the registry settings there is a group of registry values that one is from FWUPDATE the others are from boot.rgu so I do not want to remove them. What I noticed is the the registry settings by boot.rgu calls uldrui.dll which does not exist on the phone. Should I find it and put it back?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Noonski:
If your looking to remove FWupdate, i can look up the one file that you need to keep in ROM.

No OEM's at work to check ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I have figured out what I have to keep in FWUPDATE and I have determined none of the rgu stuff is needed.

@S.V.I It appears you took operamini out of your kitchen. Is this true?

I do not use it, but want to be sure. The fix is gone, but is still being called in your config.txt.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Finally flashed this ROM. The welcomehead image is rotated for some reason so no logo shows for A5. It gave an error that operaminifix could not be found. After the network wizard finished and the rom settled down I got memory of:

Storage: 44.12 free out of 47.46

Program: 26.97 free out of 50.86

I am working on cleaning up config.txt to remove the call for operaminifix. S.V.I has removed operamini from his kitchen. I added mortscript to the kitchen to do something I am trying. It is similar to Noonski's xda file system, but I have not finished figuring out how to do that.

I have a script that unzips a file and runs registry settings instead of individual packages. It gets rid of the rgu and dsm files from those packages and it does not put shortcuts in the windows folder that we want somewhere else anyway.

Just finished. It does not really change memory levels. Since everything is still in the phone. The windows folder does seem to open quicker.

Here is a link to rapidshare Turns out CommManager was missing from the kitchen
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Okay, I put Office Mobile folder under windows instead of windows\start menu. I'll have to fix that. I am going to try to switch more things to this zip method and see if things improve more. May be a few days. We'll see since I am addicted.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I have CommManager installed now. I included my fix to stop the double tap to get WiFi to start. I did a few more things with the zip instead of packages. Still no real change in memory numbers.

Still limited to 10 downloads http://rapidshare.com/files/227144503/SVI_A5_nk.nbf.html
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
Hold on a sec... that should not be.... I will upload OPERAMINI package asap... or wait...

SVIManilaBetaKITCHEN.7z

I think this should have some of the same packages anyway nice to have just in case. I must have been moving some packages into the kaiser kitchen and it got moved instead of copied :o sorry my bad.

Did you know that if you set the commanager reg settings you can run the comm images from the dll and not PNG's? you can get rid of exess weight there.

Herg and Cracing came out with a new manila cab. been testing it im my kaiser and finaly have the weather fix I wanted. I was able to install it manualy (NOT CAB) exe's and dll's through active sync and reg file and was able to get it working over the older manila. Right now working on reducing the graphics. once I have a skin I'll send it to ya.

what do you want me to do with your A5?? since there's only 10 downloads I expect the link should expire soon?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Did the MMS files fix things for your girlfriend's phone?

If it did I may need to include it in future releases for those that use MMS/SMS
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] S.V.I:
actualy, no... I think that it has to do something with what I was doing to it though... I actualy have to take the phone away from her and do a hard reset.... but in doing that I might get a painfull hard reset as well:D she loves that thing... and has not yet had to reset it!

Just for you: Manila 23 skin. still rough.. need to make landscape weather and tab. has a glass clock (on top of the clock hands:D) all files end up in windows; photo tab is not in it, but you should already have it in windows.

let me know what you think.

Opera mini that you asked for, and the kaiser version of the commmanager. You need to alter the reg file to reflect your wifi card
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
The operamini fails to download, but I got it in your latest kitchen file. It also has the commmanager.

Does the Kaiser CommManager work better in the wizard?

Is your Kaiser an ATT Tilt? I almost got one when I got my wizard. $$$ you know.

I feel my next one (hopefully long time from now) will be one without a keyboard.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
Please tell me more about the reg settings for using dll in commmanager instead of the files and which files I can delete.

As far as A5 is concerned, I do not think there is much interest in it since it is not released by you. I plan to make one final release of it after I get the new M2D and your latest images put in to it. If it runs out someone would ask for it to be reuploaded.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:

you should already have the esmertec java manager with one of the kitchens, you need to have the cab though to install opera mini. Opera mini will not install fully if it is cooked in any other form than a cab (in my experience)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I was not sure. It was posted on your thread, but the poster had typed their comments in Russian.

I created a package that combined operamini and your fix cab. It works on my phone.

Oops: I kept going back and forth. I just checked again. This does not work.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Myrddin Wyllt:
S.V.I: I'm curious (and apologies, if you've already answered this elsewhere...).

Do you have any interest/plans for cooking a WM6.5 ROM? I'd love to see your take on it. CRACING and xda2_haseeb have done nice work, but your ROMS generally fall closer to my preferences than theirs have.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
He no longer has a wizard. I am trying to take what he sent me and create his final version with the latest M2D (ver 23). I am busy at work so it will be a while.

After that, I am going to try to port a new 6.1 ROM like CRACING has used, but keep S.V.I's flavor to it. I too like how lean he keeps his ROMs.

just so you know, i just about finished optimizing the new manila 23 package.

removed the icons in the exe's and upx'd them. toned down the weight of the images quite a bit. edited the xml to reflect the \ManilaGFX folder and compresses the cab that installs it. also moved the xml's to the cab so that weather cities can be edited ;)

i will try to upload it tomorrow. do you want the standard package or an EXT package?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] lkmda:
Please do release A5

May I propose you do post A5 once you're done with the changes you're mentioning. It's a great series and I'd love to have A5.

If you do release it, would you post it here (i.e., in this thread) or you'd open a new one?

Many thanks!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I will post here when I am done since it is a finishing of S.V.I's work. It even has a new clock face.

I have gotten M2D ver23 installed, but had to take out opera mini, BTSAPSettings and PIM Backup to get a ROM that would load and not get me stuck in the white screen.

Wizard Love ROM really saves my butt.

There are a lot of features I do not use, so others will have to give me feedback. I think I have fixed the two taps to get wifi started, but I cannot figure out the jump to home instead of returning to a program you pick in quickmenu.

I changed the welcome to only be the calibration screen. After that it goes to autorun. It does not ask you to tap to continue. So if you do like I do and lower the volume between the welcome and the start of autorun, you need to be ready as soon as you finish calibration. I am going to try to figure out how to lower the volme at start.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] RoryB:
I would definitely like the standard package. I am going to try to stay out of the extended_ROM for now. Sounds like a lot of people get into problems with it.

is there anyway i can get the sent messages folder in messaging?
