LockScreen / PinPad

Hi! I upgraded to the latest version of this ROM (23053) and noticed that the LockScreen / PinPad is shown in the old wm5 style... no slider! In version ~0.8 it was shown correct. Does anyone have an idea?

thx
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] :
@AdrianJunker:

Its right, i have removed the new Lockscreen because this save 1 mb in rom. U REALLY NEED IT? Please explain me what the usefullness is of this application. I don't understand. When i press the power button my device standby. For what did i need the Lockscreen? When u give me a good reason than i add it in next build again.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] AdrianJunker:
I am not sure if it is the same, but exactly i mean the PinPad for the system password with which my device is locked... so I come in touch with it whenever my device was unused for some minutes. I know, it's only a question about appearance but it would be nice to have this screen in the same cool look as the rest of wm6.5 :)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] :
UPDATE

v0.9.8.4:

- updated to build 23420 (COM4)

- it seems that the contact-manager gui is changed by ms

- volume after 1st start 40%
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Choop:
Hi there,

I have a Charmer since 10 minutes, flashing your v0.9.8.4 win6.5 was ok but now I have some problems after the start:

sddaemon.exe elatepushservice.exe Init_Tray.exe CapNotify.exe not found.

think this programs let remove from autostart or install manually.

Can't open Contacts with softbutton or Hardbutton, it closes after sec.

Help me with the contact !!! need this -:)

greetings ChriZZ

I can't sync my contacts ... not enough memory on the device ? can't be

Is it possible that my new mda compact 2 from T-mobile has a simlock?? My Simyo will not work with this device and your rom :-(
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] :
@Choop:

After flashing you must hardreset your device!!!! Press POWER and CAMERA-Button at same time hold it and press RESET, you must hold POWER and CAMERA-Button some seconds. Then take your fingers off - you must see a black screen with white font... where you must press the phone button to format your device! Do it, then your wm 6.5 works perfectly!
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Choop:
Ahh thanx, I will try it one more. Now I have a t-mobile win5 on the device working with enterd the sim-netlock code!! Now the eplus card works.

Do I need another simlock tool for your rom? or can I flash now your rom on my divice and my eplus card will work after that?

On my first test with your rom my eplus card wouldn't work ... search and search for network.

Now with a working eplus and win5 it must be possible or not ?

I have now IPL, SPL 3.xxx
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Choop:
ok I have flashed your rom ... with the two cabs and now a HARD RESET :-)

works great, also my eplus card :-) the contacts sync will be later @ home !!

thanx for your help, nice ROM !!!

great Forum here

One question: My 1GB SD card will not work, perhaps of the wlan sd card driver. Does a SDHC card work? On a magican with the wwe win 6.1 a sdhc 8gb card works.

I have my old sd wifi card, spectec b/g Card, installd a driver and it works with 54MBit and wpa2-aes !!!! damnit :-) thats cool !! wpa2 don't work with win mobile 2003 but with your win 6.5 rom very well.

Sorry to see this project discontinued...

As I am only using your ROM for about a week now - with the chance to test it rather thoroughly - I am sad to see your project discontinued while coming back to leave some comments 'bout it.

I can understand your reasoning, but, anyways, let me give a short summary of my experiences with your ROM (so far).

I have been using a Magician running on Cotulla's WM6.1 and found it quite nice, but always hunted by a quite huge power-drain (1 day), which I couldn't get to stop (+ some other bugs and flaws). Therefore, a Charmer incl. WM6.5 was a tempting idea. I had read quite some stuff about the slowness of the Charmer's CPU versus that of the Magician, but, honestly, your Charmer at least "feels" much faster than the WM6.1 on the Magician.

Usability is great, as well as the much improved quality of graphics (naturally).

Battery drain looks okay (around 4-5 days with normal usage).

All connectivity features work quite nicely, though it would be great to have ActiveSync stay alive in suspend mode also when connected via USB (works via BT).

I like the lock-screen and added it to your ROM (you were asking why - well, especially when receiving (and sometimes also doing) calls it is nice to minimize the risk of unpurposely pushing the wrong button.

I had some (3 to 4) system crashes which I needed to cure with a soft-reset, mainly when making a call while another call came in (seemingly too much for the device to handle).

Quite annoying is the message of "Not enough memory..." for example to start the Comm.Manager - this pops-up rather frequently and I do not really know what to do to change this.

Would be great to have a possibility to change the storage locations of all sync'd items (not only the attachments) to the storage card.

Voice recognition is not really usable as included in the ROM - a more "intelligent" one (like Voice Commander) where you do not have to learn each item to the software would be great.

Well, again, sorry to see this project discontinued, you definitely deserved more positive and encouraging feedback - this is by far the best ROM I have ever seen on my device.

Super Arbeit, schade, dass die Gemeinde mit ihrem verdienten Lob so sparsam war und ist.

Ne, ich frag erst gar nicht. :mad:

Schade, echt schade.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] ChrBeck:
I think I should say something. I talked to Cyberdel and know that he stoped the Project. I'm planing to port some of my German ROMs from Kaiser to Charmer and you guys have the luck that I'm planning to release them here also I feel a littlebit like Cyberdel too. But still: For me it is the most importand to keep Charmer alive and I'll act like that nessesary what happens with the users.

Yust not to let you feel ways too down.

WE RESPECT YOU AND YOUR GREAT ROMS CYBERDEL!

Hallo Cyber.

Ich würde dir ja was geben für deine Entwicklung und dem daran anschließendem Download, aber selbst wenn ich dir was geben könnte (du machst nur Paypal und ich hasse Paypal) selbst dann müsste ich bei Rapid für den Download noch mal zahlen, denn dort geht zur Zeit überhaupt nix runter zu laden ohne zu zahlen.

Screenshots

Hello,

I'm new to the MDA compact II. I got it one week before and I'm testing around a bit.

I flashed the official T-Mobile-Update (WM5). Now I'm very interested in the ROM of cYBERdEL. But before I will flash it, I've got a maybe stupid question...

Are there any screenshots available? I would like to have a look before...

Thanks a lot...

Manila 2D beta v0.1

Hi cYBERdEL,

I have installed the M2D version since yesterday and have to admit that I am impressed - I instantly like it much more than the Titanium versions, since it is much faster on the Charmer.

Some possible bugs:

1.) Power efficiency looks good, but I have the feeling that there is some sort of power drain issue when GPRS is turned on - I can basically watch the percentage points of the battery drop when it is turned on.

2.) When changing the audio profile/volume from the home screen, this window cannot be closed by pressing "OK" or the red end key - instead you need to enter the start menu and end this in order to go back to the home screen

Two possible features to be included in new releases of your great ROMs:

a) Auto disconnect feature for the GPRS (weather auto update works great and connects automatically to GPRS, but does not disconnect after updating)

b) User interface to change the charge via USB function (yes/no)

Besides this, this is the best ROM so far.

Regards

Sascha
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] :
Hi Sascha!

Thanks for your statement about the rom.

To your 1st question, try to reset your device with charger pluged in.

To your 2nd question, you must press ok for a few seconds to close it.

To a) i will try to integrate an autodisconnect in next build.

an last but not least to b) i don't know what you mean :(

gReeTs

cYBERdEL
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] sathiere:
Power drain seems to be okay now - strange, that this works after a soft-reset while charging...weird...

What I mean with "b) User interface to change the charge via USB function (yes/no)" is that, in order to make the battery pack last longer, you do not want to start charging the device every time you attach it to your PC for synchronization - therefore an option to disable the automatic charging via USB would be good.

Regards

Sascha
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] sathiere:
2 other things I have come across:

1.) Incoming text messages (SMS) are announced properly by the M2D icon, etc. - but - it is rather difficult to make the device realize that you have read the text message. This means, when an SMS comes in, the Charmer will display a small "1" at the corner of the SMS icon. Unfortunately, pushing on the icon and, afterwards, on the message text, does not "reset" showing this "1". You can only do this by going into your SMS inbox and opening the SMS manually. Seemingly the SMS is not automatically marked as read when accessing it through M2D.

2.) Internet sharing does not work anymore - I haven't tried this function in the way to use the Charmer as gateway to the web, but I used to connect my Charmer with your ROM loaded to my laptop via USB and it was instantly possible to use the laptop's internet connection on the Charmer. This is not working anymore. The Charmer is now always trying to connect via GSM/GPRS

Regards

Sascha
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] :
Hi Sascha!

The issue with textmessage is solved, i had to turn of threaded sms for the moment. It is since build 28230 and seems to be a problem of microsoft.

The other problem of you i can't reproduce. On my Laptop with Windows 7 the I-Net works on my charmer. Sorry i can't help at moment, maybie some other users have the problem, please say it here.

The new build is available saturday afternoon.

[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Buzter:
I tried both versions now. I don't know why but I like the chome version better.

I must admit the manilla2d seems to be a little bit faster. But I don't like it, sad but true. I would like to take advantage of the better performance - but what it's worth if I can't stand it.

Great work after all. But I think I stand by the chome version.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Buzter:
Got the same problem here still using m2d. I don't know why it doesn't work!? Any help?

[MDA Compact II ROM Development] :
Internetconnection

I had tested this and you are right! There seems to be an issue. When i connect, via bluetooth then the connection is etablished, but in windows 7 or vista i have to start the mobile device center, then internetconnection works. If i don't start it then connection via bluetooth doesn't work. But don't know if this is really a bug??!?!

Please try to connect and start mobile device center or active sync in xp.

Tell me if this solve the problem.

cYBERdEL
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Buzter:
Yes, you are right. I tried it with XP and Microsoft ActiveSync and now the internet connection works perfectly. I don't know enough about this stuff - but is there now a possible solution for vista? Or do I have to connect via XP from now on always? Thanks a lot for your work.

Hello cYBERdEL,

I've got one problem here. I am still using your ROM with M2D. I'm getting used to it and day by day I like it more.

I've got a maybe stupid question. Maybe it's answered anywhere else inside this forum. But I want to ask here.

Is there a possibility to update the rom without losing my previous installed personal programs? For instance I use S2U2. Do I have to reinstall it after updating? Or can I use it furthermore then without reinstalling?
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] ChrBeck:
As far as I know there is no possibility to save the apps. You will have to reinstall them after flashing. That is normal.

cYBERdEL ROM WM6.5 M2D v1.0

I have come to like the Manila interface a lot, since it works much quicker on the Charmer - so thanks for making this option available to a broader audience.

Now, just some quick comments on the latest M2D release, v1.0:

1.) Internet connection sharing (using the internet connection of the laptop you have your Charmer connected to) does not work properly - I think we have seen this bug before

2.) Incoming text messages (SMS) are announced properly by the M2D icon, etc. - but - it is rather difficult to make the device realize that you have read the text message. This means, when an SMS comes in, the Charmer will display a small "1" at the corner of the SMS icon. Unfortunately, pushing on the icon and, afterwards, on the message text, does not "reset" showing this "1". You can only do this by going into your SMS inbox and opening the SMS manually. Seemingly the SMS is not automatically marked as read when accessing it through M2D.

Yes, we have also seen this before (in M2D v0.1)

Generally, it would be great if the Charmer could be set to make more "optical noise" when someone has called or a text message arrived - a fast flashing blue/orange/green LED would be great and more compelling, than only the change of color. Alternating (changing) colors would be great as well.

3.) It would be great to have a manila tab integrated which is focussing on the upcoming appointments, so that I don't need to use the bloody calendar

4.) A voice dialer like Cyberon Voice Commander would be great, since the preinstalled one where you have to record every command for every contact and program is simply useless (in my eyes)

Besides these small flaws, the Charmer is now really great, and I always enjoy it, when I can still talk on the phone, while all the other iphone and so on users have already lost their reception...especially impressive on an ICE...

Thanks, regards

Sascha
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] sathiere:
One more thing: I have troubles synchronizing my outlook inbox with the device. This always worked with the other releases, but now it is horribly slow, and restarts every couple of minutes. ActiveSync on the PC then says that the device has run out of storage space, which is not the case...
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Buzter:
I agree with you in all points - especially that it is great to have m2d on charmer. Thx to cYBERdEL once again.

Now to your upper quote. I needed something to display other things too. So I installed M2D Today Page. I know you can't integrate the original calendar in it. Perhaps it works with other plugins like calendar++ or something?

Unfortunately M2DTP doesn't work without error messages. But after clicking them away it works very well.
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] sathiere:
Hmmm...What I would really like would be to customize the tabs on the main screen easily. I don't need the photo/video, browser, Google maps, tabs, fpr example - but, as I use the charmer as my business phone and "appointment brain", such a tab would be really useful.

I am rather a business than a "fun" user, therefore the multimedia purposes are not that important. Which fits rather well with the Charmer's humble CPU clock...
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Buzter:
With the M2D cutomizer tool you can switch off/on the tabs you like. I have switched off some tabs too. Don't need the internet tab for example. Try this tool - it works.

With the M2DTP (described above) you can show some standard today page plugins e.g. messages etc. As I said unfotunately the original calendar doesn't work. But I just tried the plugin TodayAgenda. It works with M2DTP. Here is a screenshot only for example. Because of my background it is bad to see:

"original" home tab:

M2DTP home tab:

Thanks - let me try this.

One other bug that I have just come across - the SMS editor is not stable. I had troubles sending an SMS to multiple recipients. When I was adding the list of recipients, WM simply quit the editor and went back to the home screen. No error message, nothing. Message was also not saved. Quite annoying...
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] :
@sathiere:

ich kenne das programm sms editor zwar nicht, aber vermutlich (eventl.) ist es nicht 100% kompatibel mit wm6.5.5 .. von wann ist es denn? man muss beachten, dass wm6.5.5 ein neues windows, mit immer neuerem code ist - programme müssen auch vom hersteller etc. angepasst werden. in diesen fällen kann man nix machen, außer auf updates vom hersteller zu warten. das mit dem sms counts ist mir gar nicht so aufgefallen, da ich die titanium oberfläche verwende! werde das aber am wochenende mal untersuchen. auch der dialer wird eventuell gegen das ms voice...dingens ersetzt - hatte ich sowieso schon vor gehabt - nur noch keine zeit gefunden ;) ActiveSync funktioniert bei mir perfekt... komisch, wenn jemand anderes noch das Problem haben sollte bitte mal melden! Und den Rest sollte ja Buzter schon beantwortet haben. Danke!

Neue Version wird wahrscheinlich Samstag, je nach Wetterlage eher später beim Grillen :-)
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] sathiere:
Little misunderstanding - SMS editor is no program, I mean the built-in function of WM to write SMS.

So, whenever I right an SMS and try to add multiple people from my contact list to the distribution list of the message, WM simply quits back to the home screen and the message is lost...

Thanks for the other answers - have fu nat the first (?) barbecue of the year...
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Buzter:
I have tested it on my charmer with M2D. There was no problem... Perhaps something went wrong with rom installation on your device?
[MDA Compact II ROM Development] Buzter:
ActiveSync unter Vista arbeitet grundsätzlich gut. Aber die Internetverbindung kann ich nach wie vor nicht nutzen (Charmer per USB-Kabel an Vista-Rechner). Unter XP funktioniert beides hervorragend.
