I also have a Sim-unlocked wing on Cincinnati Bell. Flashed JustHacked12v3 and the SimEdition, both load up, go through the customization, and then go into a endless reboot cycle. Could it be something in the automatic configuration, as it seems to work up to that point? I have never used a configuration tool for my settings, as Cincinnati Bell isn't that well known, and wasn't included in any of them when I started flashing roms almost a year ago. Always input my SMS,MMS, and internet manually.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
I'm gonna upload a build without the configuration. brb
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] marty123:
Maybe some helpful info...

Soft-resetting right after setting up touch screen but before the configuration kicks in gives same result- endless reboot.

Pulling the SD card out and soft-resetting stops the rebooting, freezes at the windows mobile screen with the green network LED blinking like normal.

Going to hard reset w/ no sd...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] marty123:
Hard-reset w/o SD in also locks up at windows mobile screen. All flashes are done via SD.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
The configuration wizard STILL runs in memory as a service... and it looks for a SIM card and reads the info from the SIM card to launch the configuration. Try JustHacked12v3b-SimEditionV2.7z it doesn't have the configuration wizard and therefore, shouldn't be looking at your SIM card.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] marty123:
Thank You!

Downloading now and will report back in a few mins.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] da_mayhem:
ivan - Just a suggestion, it would be great if you'd include the No Delete CAB Tweak after installation, just noticed after installing all my cabs from my SD, they were all gone! but that's fine, i just had my cabs again from my PC.

And also, i don't like the idea of the Quick Menu, i prefer the normal one, with bigger fonts on the Start Menu Programs and on the Settings to make it more finger friendly, including the Menu Bar and Pop up Font Sizes set to Large, that would be great!

These are only my preferences and suggestions, otherwise, it's a clean and just as stable as your rom title is! Great work ivan! Keep it up.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] da_mayhem:
Here's the Reg Tweak for the "No Delete CAB" if you're interested bro

HKCR\cabfile\Shell\open\command = 'wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete'
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
I included a tweak already but apparently, it was probably overwritten when I went back to an earlier build when people couldn't boot. Thanks for telling me, I'll reimplement it again.

Done. I implemented it. I'll be on the next build as soon as I get more bugs reported.

I got used to QuickMenu, but I do have to figure out a way to make the fonts bigger.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] da_mayhem:
No worries, bro!

That would be cool! Thanks much!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] marty123:
Sorry, Ivan. I have the same issues with JustHacked12v3b-SimEditionV2. Is there anything else different between the time it first boots up ( just after setting up touch-screen) and the automatic reboot after configuration? Everything seems to work at first, I even get voicemail notification while configuring. If you want, tomorrow I can run individual cabs, if you have them, to mimic the configuration step by step and tell you what fails it. Not even sure that is where the problem lies, but it is something I could try and help with. Have to leave for work here in a half hour or so, but you can pm me and i'll give you my email address if that works better for you.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
I don't keep cab files since I do things manually in OEM packages, but I'll look over it and see what's going on.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
I've been trying, as a lay person, to figure that out for the past month as I have been using QM with M2D -- having used it for a year prior on iFonz.

Have you tried writing the author? I would just bet he would be able to solve that. I was trying all these variants using Advanced Configuration -- User Interface menu font controls... nope .... tried HTC large start menu, tried many things. I am going to write the author of QM.

Meanwhile -- I have not yet had time to wipe my phone and install... i have to backup too many things first and can't afford to make a mistake... I don;t experiment a lot with ROMS.. I find ones that work, and keep them, and then heavily customize the phone in my choice of apps and confgurations... so for me it is not practical to try various versions. But fgor this one I for sure will, because this one is going to be the heart of my phone for the next year.

But question: Are you using HTC Phone Canvas as the dialer? I sure hope so. It's so much better than anything that preceded it... And it;s the app that has the MUCH friendlier "Add new contact" and "Save to Contacts?" user interface.... And Paul de Groot themed it -- I didn't even know this til tonight when I was searching for his Minimal Dialer again.

In case you're interested, here is the thread. Note: I read the whole thread, and the first post has the latest version for QVGA devices -- based on Opal Phone Canvas --- after he and others worked through some various bugs with other Phone Canvas versions.

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] jrange1:
how big is this rom?

i am getting 70 storage on justme but 40 mb storage on justhacked
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
I should just contact him and ask, also.

Understandable, then you might want to wait until it is finished and not in alpha format.

Yes, I am. It's the best dialer around. It's just that I attempted to theme it and broke it. Once the theme gets finished that won't be a problem.

This is NOT a clean ROM. (Although, I DO plan to make a clean ROM out of this afterwards.)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
I flashed this one without any problems with and without a SIM card in. I'm a t-mobile user with a hard-spl wing. FWIW.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
All good so far!

Ivan,

I've been testing several of the latest releases and haven't found any bugs yet. I can say that a lot of the stuff I download from the internet seems to download MUCH FASTER than with my "JustMe" ROM. :D

Great work! I appreciate your efforts on releasing these great ROMs!!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
If you use the Tmobile Tzone's hack, I change some settings on it that should help in speed. If you're using wifi, I don't know why. hehehe
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Chongie:
Hi guys,

Are the last two released versions (v3b and v3b Sim2.7) suitable for the Herald..

Just want to know before I flash...

Thanks..
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
Maybe it's my wishful thinking too? :) I use the tmobile internet plan - but I'm in Houston so maybe they have improved the EDGE system here? hehehe

The ROM is running great. Good sound and video streaming on WM, MMS, SMS and mail all work flawlessly. I've even become good at the dialer. I'm not sure why some are having the SIM problem. I have flashed both of my wings (build 3 and greater) with these ROMs without any trouble.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
duplicate...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
FWIW,

For those of you that want to try and make the QuickMenu font larger:

Modify registry item:

HKLM\System\GWE\Menu\BarFnt\Ht

it adjusts the font in any system menu (not sure about quickmenu) - you could try 1000 or 1100.

I think the default is 800.

Remember to hard reset after change to see if it matters.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
They have the Wing keyboard driver. It will work but the keys won't be all right. I figured since the people that were testing the alpha were all Wing users, it would be faster to just upload the wing versions. The final and the betas WILL be in both versions. If you want to alpha test, I will upload the alpha, also.

Look at your APN, is it showing epc.tmobile.com or internet.voicestream.com or something else? If showing epc, it's because of something I changed, and yes, it's technically faster. If it's not, then I don't know why it's going faster. Tmobile IS working on their networks, so that might be it.

The people having problems are people who have SIM unlocked phones.

Can anyone confirm this works? I don't have the wing with me as my wife still has it, so I can't test it. (And I don't have the WM emulator on my PC since I can't flash wing roms to it and I rarely ever use it.)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] jchitwood85:
OK Ivan so here is what we DO know! Marty and I are in the EXACT same boat, same unlock same carrier same everything. Both with the same issues, We both try the SIM version and it still constant reboots..... Is there ANY way to surpass the customization process, THATS got to be where our problem lies. Im relly unsure what else to do.... Just2Clean works fine, But this doesnt, which breaks my lil heart because i LOVE the quick menu! Im still curious to test and see if your 6.5 release will even boot for me..... I just dunno what the issue could be, im gonna go post in the main forum and see if I can find anything out, Then I work at 230 so I guess Ill see later......
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
The only things that run in the customization are:

HIDE:Disabled

LOCK:Disabled

CPY1:\windows\fexplor.exe

CPY2:\Windows\fexplore.exe

EXEC:\WINDOWS\cusTSK.exe \Windows\ClassicBlack.tsk

EXEC: \windows\SDAutoRun.exe

This translates to:

Copy the enhanced fexplore over the standard fexplore

Add the classicback as the default skin

run SDAutoRUN for UC compliance.

I'm going to build one with two different versions for you to try out. One without the enhanced explorer and one without the SDAutoRun.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] jchitwood85:
Kinda weird now, Just2Clean wont even work =( I just flashed to Touch IT 7.1 its working good for now though..... I posted my issue in the main board under customization and hacks i believe. You may wanna check up on it while im at work maybe someone can help. Thanks for everything Ivan......
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
I'm currently uploading JustHacked12v3c-SimEdition-Version3.7z

When you see it in the server, try download it and flashing it. I wonder if its the UC compliance that's killing it?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Chongie:
Hi there,

I flashed my phone with build3 for the herald.

Everything seems te work oke.

No reboot problems yet, flashed with my sim in.

I will continue to test and report any bugs or issues..

I am looking for the final version..

Thanks...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
There is a new SIM version uploaded with the customization stripped down to bare essentials. Please try it out. (It also has the CAB nodelete fix on it.)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] oyebee:
invalid security

anyone else getting this message when trying to flash through sd card?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Is your Herald/Wing/Atlas HardSPL'd?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] kobi_eidelman:
where i can find this version?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] oyebee:
yes ivan, been flashing for a minute. iam not sure why it goes through sd card check and gives the invalid notification, am trying again
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] marty123:
Hey Ivan,

We are part way there! New sim build loads up, gets through customizing, and seems to work fine. However, as soon as I soft reset, I go back into the endless loop again... Heading out for a while, but I'll dig into it a bit later tonight, kinda throwing me for a loop here :) Thanks for all your efforts here so far!!!!!!!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
Okay, I finally had time to test some more this afternoon -

To make the font bigger on the Quick Menu - increase this key:

HKLM\System\GDI\SYSFNT = 1100 (default was 900 I think).

You can also modify the menu font I mentioned earlier if you want. I changed them both to 1100 and quick menu looks good to me now.

I'll post a picture...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
I'll flash it on my main wing and let you know how it goes.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
The same link. The first link on the first page is an online folder where I keep uploading all my alpha builds to.

Great and not great! haha

I will try to build one without the SIM based data config. Give me a little while, I´ll be away from my desk for a minute.

Oh oh oh oh, I´m gonna try that as soon as I get home on my wing (or wife´s wing... for now. lol) I´ll see about getting a nice finger friendly number.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
I'm testing the latest SIM ROM and must report that it flashes fine and runs super fast.

I am having an issue launching a .CAB file. I use rapiconfig to launch many customizations and those all worked fine. I also use mortscript to run many homemade scripts and those all worked fine. But when I double click any .CAB file ( I really only use one for HS++ but tried others ) - it does nothing. I keep my cab files on my SD card with properties set for read only - so I changed the properties thinking this might be an issue - but still a double click does nothing. BUG?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
It was a fix for cab deletion that failed. lol No worries, it's easily fixed. The next build should have a proper fix.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
I wasn't worried - :D - everything else on this ROM is great! The weather on htc home works fine and fast. mms/sms/email all very fine and reliable.

I haven't tested internet sharing on any of these roms yet - but will try to test that tonight after dinner. this ROM is feeling pretty nice!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Chongie:
Hi Ivan,

You ROM is working great on my Herald.

No problem encountered so far.

Speed and battery life are great.

I can not wait for the final version.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks......

Ivan, minor bug in JustHacked12v3d SIM. The screen for "add bluetooth device" is too wide to fit on screen. everything works, just button is halfway off screen.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] marty123:
Using CeRegEditor, I'm trying to go through and find if there is a reg entry causing the reboot cycling. I have reg dumps from sim edition v4 with the sim in and without the sim. Also dumped the reg from just2clean with the sim because it works just fine. I see quite a few differences between the 3, but am a bit over my head trying to figure out what everything is and if something in particular could keep causing the reset cycling. Anything in particular I should be looking at, or would it help if I uploaded them? They're in .cereg format but I think I can convert them to .reg files if needed.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
That's fine. I use CeRegEditor myself. The thing is that there are a LOT of differences between the two, but maybe we can find something that loads in RAM that causes the problem. Go ahead and upload them.

Hmm... Seems that that screen is still stuck in VGA mode...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] marty123:
Here are the registries. There is a set from SimEdition v4 with no sim inserted, a set from v4 with the sim in, and a set from Just2Clean with the sim in.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] qngds:
not so quick with inesoft dialer/contact

I really liked the speed... until I installed the Inesoft software. Every time I tried to open/send a text the phone would hang. It was sluggish in moving from program to program as well. I did a hard reset and tried again, but had the same results. I look forward to trying it again when it's out of alpha. Thanks for all your efforts!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Updated the ROM a bit. There are a few things that I've fixed and I changed the notification icons to be more attractive. (As seen on this screenshot.)

Oh, and I accidently fixed the bluetooth button bug while theming the notification icons. lol

I was just contacted by the themer, too, he's working on the dialer as I type this.

Right now, we're looking at around 27.5mb free RAM at startup.

The Clean version (no QuickMenu, wktask or HTCHome) is sitting at 29mb free of RAM.

And between the donations you guys gave me and a VERY generous donation from quicksite from before my wife's phone died, I was able to get my wife a nice phone (that she has been eyeing for a long time now). It's not a very gadgety phone, but she loves the look of it (the samsung gravity.) (She likes the idea of having a slideout keyboard and loves every samsung she's ever had.)

And last but not least, starting with the next release, I'm going to release something to make life easier for my testers. It's a cab that you install and run before installing a new build. When it runs it creates a very simple backup for your contacts and calendar. Then when you flash a new build, it automatically reads the backup from the memory card and automatically copies it and loads it to the phone while the phone goes through its customization wizard (the part where the theme is applied). By the time the phone finishes resetting, it has all the contacts and calendar data already on it. (So there SHOULD be no need to do a PIM backup.) Although, I would still do a backup before the first time you did it or after any changes. This isn't a replacement for backing up your data, but a quick way of restoring it on the fly while flashing my ROMs. Now, this is based on a theory of mine, I tested it on a Windows Mobile emulator and so far it worked, but I haven't tested the scripting that I made up for it. It's all in my head currently. I'm gonna piggy back ride on the OEM customization wizard built into windows and use its scripting language to do this.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Chongie:
The new notification icons look great when will this be release for the Herald.

I am running Phone Extension from iconsoft.com and I have now problems, hangs or lacks switching from or to this program.

Thanks
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
The final version will be released when all the bugs have been worked out. I want this to be a completely bug free ROM. As far as the alpha or beta versions, the next build will be released in both wing and herald versions.

As far as iconsoft, I've never used them. I'd have to try it myself and see if I can find where the crashing is coming from. Have you ever had it crashed on any other ROM?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Ok, I just installed the trial version and so far it has not crashed at all. It's actually pretty nice as it runs FAST and reminds me a little of the android dialer interface. (The contacts, history and favorites being around the same place.)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
I just went to look at what Phone Extension is.... Here's a suggestion but you may not like it since you purchased this app suite -- which looks great by the way:

Everything I see there can be achieved with apps known to work well on wndows mobile devices, because they are all from XDA:

iContact, Burt's edition (version 6x) uses pictures in all those same ways and locations within contacts, phone etc.

The full screen caller id is, and has been, for over a year, a feature of S2U2 (slide to unlock, A_C's great app)

and keep in mind that the new dialer is coming that is HTC's "Phone canvas" application, which not only is a great dialer, it also adds a whole new interface to adding contacts.... niot the same old TINY windows mobile contacts interface.

just saying this to let you know that all of what you want is available to use with this ROM and I would bet no conflicts. There would HAVE to be no conflicts or I would consider the rom buggy, since those are 3 MUST HAVE apps I will use with this ROM:

S2U2 , iContact Burt's Edition, and HTC 's Phone Canvas.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Chongie:
The crashes I experienced were all while using the 1.2 version of the Iconsoft.com. But since version 1.3 it runs very smooth and stable.

Especially on your ROM ;-)..
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Chongie:
I know that these application are around. I have used them in the past. But my experience was that they weren't stable enough. I am not quitte sure how the latest version are.

Maybe I will try them when I am flashing my Herald with the newest ROM of Ivan.

I will let you know what my experiences are...

Thanks
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
well now that I hear the newer version of this app-suite works flawlessly on ivan's rom, I may try it myself.

i agree that some of the apps i mentioned are not always stable. and I am finally learning that i no longer have the time & patience to keep futzing with stuff that isn't working perfectly... and that it is worth it to me to buy apps that are bug free, and that provide (WHEN THEY DO) a better user experience, since my time is money -- and i waste way too much time on XDA for usable interfaces for CONTACTS, keyboards, etc.

So, can you either PM me, or write here (dont want to pollute or derail this thread) and tell me does that app have a complete and total replacement for the windows contact apps? as in, i would have finger friendly large type and layouts for every single field in a contact form< and all interfaces remotely related to contacts would all, all all be readable type size and finger navigable? If so, i won't even think twice. I will buy that app and use it and dump that windows crappy piece of useless garbage. :eek:
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
anyone have feedback on this? (finger suite)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBR6iQKRGa0

http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-fingersuite.html

?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] sambalbij:
It's from XDA (link). Looks great, but i found it too slow, and since the menu's in this rom are bigger, i don't need fingersuite anymore to make the menu's fingerfriendly.

On the other hand there is rhodium menu enhancement (qvga is somewhere at the end of the thread). Everyone says it runs as fast as normal menu, but i can't get it working. I think it's because of an older gwes.exe or something, but replacing it with a newer version from somewhere in that thread results in a hard-reset (won't boot anymore).
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
As sambalbij said, it is a little on the sluggish side. I've been waiting for a working QVGA rhodium menu enhancement instead since its reported to be fast and very light on resources.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
sounds great! I can't wait to test it!!!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Just brainstorming here, but I'm thinking of placing the dialer in the extended ROM and direct windows to draw the resources from there and therefore save a few mb off the storage... since the extrom and the main storage can't be merged. I wonder what else I could redirect there... I wonder if the dialer would still work... so many ideas, so little time. Especially with the new training at work that requires me to go through a VERY large book and study quite a bit. But while I'm talking to customers on the phone, I can multitask on my ROMs.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] nonpaq:
I noticed the same screen issue when downloading a file via mobile IE. When browsing for the folder to download to, you get the same shifted button. (Sorry no screen shot). Also with certain prompts, like the "Opening Bluetooth Port" when using activesync via bluetooth. Hopefully these were also "accidentally" fixed (Sometimes my best troubleshooting fixes at work happens by accident too.). Keep up the good work.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
I'll post a new build soon and hopefully all these bugs will be gone. I have to update the second post with bugs and fixes. Also, I fixed the CAB bug and it no longer deletes cabs when you install them. I've also have an idea to streamline my cooking process to be able to cook different variations of my ROMs easily.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] prscott1:
If you want to try the dialer in the ext ROM and anything else - I'll test for you. Would mail/calendar (tmail / poutlook) run from there?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ivanmmj:
Building a new version to upload in a few minutes. This one gives 28mb free with the non-clean version. (The one with wktask, quickmenu, etc.)

Building the Herald version as we speak. I'll upload both in several minutes.
