sorry my fault, i eddited my post and added a link to qpst its a programm simular to LGMPD, download it, install and connect your mobile in usb flash mode like you do it with LGMPD, than QPST should be connected und you should be able to backup your .nv2

after flashing with 6.5 do it the same way, do not forget to set your usb to flash mode and this time restore your .nv2

it's very easy...

my tut is ok, I did it this way cause nobody wanted to unbanrd my .nv2 so I founded a way to baypass this problem ;)

hi farahbolsey

the latest 23003 build of your ROM works fine!

as in 23001 the gsm reload bug was present for around a second, in 23003 there's no reloading :)

cheers!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] milaq:
unfortunately there is. just let your phone go to standby, receive a call and voila - there you go.

and any other efforts - i.e. to switch the band to gsm only shortens the reload but it's still present.

guess we have to wait for a real low-level driver fix to come out :(

btw: a workaround is not a fix; sry to say that. but despite of that: nice rom.

GSM is NOT reloading!

I have tested builds 23001 and 23003 in different modes and I can confirm, at least for my own KS20, that there is no GSM reloading issue with the 23003 rom - even with phone skin enabled, and even after receiving a call in standby mode.

I have been trying out all available 6.5 roms at xda-developers.com and 52lg.com. So far, this 23003 build is the best.

GSM reloads

Hi,

I think it depends on the different networks available in your country. In France we have 3G and 3G+.

Spocky reported weeks ago that he spent a weekend where the only available network was the lowest and he had no GSM reloads.

So, people with no GSM reloads, can you tell us if 3G+ exists in your country, just so we know if it's related to that, or if in the city you live in you have access to that or not?

bluetooth problems

Hi,

Is anyone facing problems with their bluetooth headset?

I've tried connecting using Samsung WEP200 to my KS20 but it cannot be connected.

I recently purchased a Sony DR-BT10CX bluetooth Stereo headset and it cannot connect as well.

For the WEP200, I've tested it on 21806, 21820, 23001 and 23003.

It can see and pair the device when you add in as pairing.

When you try to use it for calls, no sound can be heard. So i delete the pairing and try going to Bluetooth Manager and create a new Hands-free/Headset setup, it can see the device but when i try to pair it, KS20 just stays at "connecting".

I've tested the Sony DR-BT10CX bluetooth Stereo headset on 23003 at the moment and the same problem occurs.

I've then tried the WEP2 and the DR-BT10CX on a Nokia N95 and a HTC Touch Pro2 and the headsets worked fine.

If you try to click on the bluetooth icon on the top bar, it will pop up with a russian/unknown characters.

I wonder if anyone is having the same problem.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] elkoos:
All I can report that after flashing my polish KS20 in emergency mode, i finally made it to work correctly with 23003 (manually restoring nv2 and then HR the phone). GSM issue is still there, however it sometimes do a 0,5 sec speed search and other times 5-10 secs. Usually when I answer phone its not a problem, bcause it blinks as out of service for 1 -2 secs. Haven't noteiced any other bugs for this version, even missed calls now work :)

Thanks for Your hard job and let's all hope this GSM issue can be fixed.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] laocheebye:
I think the most annoying problem is not with call delay due to gsm reload, cause it's very fast now, but when u power on your phone and want to make a quick call you gotto wait for the gsm to finish reloading before the phone responds. this is the only major letdown i feel for this rom.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Don't know if anybody who flashed with 23003 noticed it, but it seems that memory leaks with Titanium are less important, and memory recovery more efficient with this build (after a big memory hog with Opera or IrisBrowser, everything come back to normal at nearly 1% of memory like before after a few minutes of inactivity, before, it was not so close to the starting point).

Farah, do you expect trying to implement Extendir in a near future ? Kaiser's cookers seem to benefit some orevall good speed improvements, and I'm curious to see this.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
@majorasshole : yes, that's what people say about memory leaks/recovery in this build. That's a good news for us.

About extendir, I'd say the major issue is that it takes almost 10/11Mb of ram. I think I'll wait for an updated version where cache size can be changed.

As for people saying the reload is gone, if you don't see it, just try to open dialer, I can't explain why, by sometimes, the reload is delayed until the dialer is reloaded. The force gsm doesn't always work and I really don't have a clue when it does.

gsm reload

Hi,

I have this funny feeling that the gsm reloading has something to do with titanium. I tried to test the phone with titanium disabled but while my phone didn't reload very often in the first place I am not sure if its so.

PS. keep up the good work, I have the 23003 build and its quite smooth with veeery few hangups.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Removing [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TaskBar] ConsistentClockOrBattery"=dword:0" allows to disable correctly the time on the taskbar. Not a big deal, I just tested it, and it works.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vosk:
I am afraid it probably doesn`t.... I am using build 21806 (or so) and I am not using the titanium today screen.... I still get gsm reloads quite often....
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xSilv85:
well i flashed with our rom too ^^ its ok stable man. So no need to be shy

the only important thing for a rom imo are improved battery life and not crash after using some intensive programs. letting WOW HD audio is a good choice. It made my ks20 flip every 10 calls. It started to doubling the calling beeps when i call someone and wont stop unless i soft reset the phone even i hung up

i am semi-adventurous xD dont want to flash every 5 minute or hard reset too much :p

ps: i installed iContact 0.93 which made the theme change color. Dont ask me why.. it changed to green or smth xD

after installing PlumSIP (for chinese users) the clock alarm will just show half. But this happened to with Kiss 6.1 so i guess it's the program's fault ^^

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tarmpung:
Although I switched the phone to sleep mode, I could still use Activesync. I think that the sleep mode was fake when using this Rom and this may cause the battery's problem...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] d3thstalker:
I connect to ActiveSync via Bluetooth. If my phone goes into sleep mode, my phone disconnects from ActiveSync. I think there is an exception when you connect to ActiveSync through USB; your phone probably stays connected to ActivSync through a wired connection.

Anyways, I installed SRS HD 1.5 to build 21500 of this ROM. It completely messes up you audio drivers, leading to a phone witout any sounds. Uninstalling it doesn't help either. I then installed the previous version of SRS HD (v1.2). Windows Mobile is unable to boot up now, phone screen remains stuck at the LG logo. I think only a hard reset will solve this problem.

So guys, DO NOT install the SRS WOW HD driver, yet. And farahbolsey, could you help me confirm the incompatibility of the SRS WOW HD driver with your ROM? If there are no issues, could you include it in the next release?

I am going to flash the latest build (21501) now. ;)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] demonreeper:
i flashed with the older build and now i cant get into emergency mode or

(Port Setting → 1. Diag Setting →) 2. USB Switching → “LG Composite -DUN, DIAG”.

so i am unable to flash now ... any advice on this is greatly appreciated.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] d3thstalker:
I couldnt get into this mode too: 2. USB Switching → “LG Composite -DUN, DIAG”.

Are you sure that you are doing the right thing to get into emergency mode?

1.) Unplug the USB cable from your phone.

2.) Turn off your phone completely and wait for 10 seconds

3.) Press the Call key, Internet Key and the Power key AT THE SAME TIME. Press and hold till your LED turns green.

4.) Once the green light is on, you are in emergency mode.

5.) Plug in the USB cable.

VOILA! :D

unless my settings are wrong but i doubt it
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] d3thstalker:
You don't have to worry about backing up NV as long as you DO NOT select the earse ESF option. Doing so will keep your NV intact while it installs the new OS. So select NONE instead of Erase ESF and begin the flashing. Don't worry, i had the same doubt as you before I flashed.... ;)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] d3thstalker:
I doubt that its your setting. My phone's audio became messed up too after installing SRS WOW! I think WM6.5 is incompatible with those drivers.

Hi Farah,

is your Rom much different than Spocky's, is it worth flashing or should I wait.. and are (or do) you guys working together?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
If you want to stick with a WM 6.5 build, I can tell you farah's 23004 is more stable and efficient than Spocky's version. I tried both, and I came back to farah's despite the free memory advantage of Spocky's build.

I guess I can advise you to stick with Farah's if you already have it, and use KisS 20.5 if you want to go back to the stable old fashioned 6.1.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
As I did for KisS 20.5 release, I built a small compilation of must have softwares compatible with WM 6.5 and few enhancements.

It's not the same package as the one for KisS, it's focused on 6.5 only !

The package is available here : http://dl.free.fr/b7gbC2285

Password of archive : just type my pseudo

You just have to extract the archive on your SD root, and DISABLE ALL energy savings to avoid broken installs with heavy cabs !

You can install those automagically with 2 methods :

1st : legacy SDAutorun in Start / Settings / System

Most apps installed, except som cab incompatible with unattended mode like iContact and MagiCall

2nd : launch PresetInstaller and choose WM65 preset and, here it goes, just follow the instructions.

Some apps are included as alternative like the great IrisBrowser, or Arthemus dialer skin if you can't stand the cutomized canvas included.

Have fun to customize !

Missed calls

hi farahbolsey,

installed 23004 and it is excellent (I have 1 ring GSM reload which is OK).

I noticed that the missed calls indicators do not always work, so after some testing here is what I found:

I have 3 missed calls indicators (stock build, no additional plugins):

- Taskbar icon / Notification on bottom bar

- Titanium "phone" plugin

- on lock screen: count on "unlock" button + count on missed call icon

All tests were made with phone in lock screen + screen off

1st missed call:

- Taskbar icon / Notification on bottom bar indicates 1 missed call

- Titanium "phone" plugin shows (1) but the text is "no new missed calls"

- lock screen does NOT SHOW missed call

- if you check the missed calls list the call is there (but twice. so now you have 2 calls in missed calls).

2nd missed call

- Taskbar icon / Notification on bottom bar indicates 2 missed calls

- Titanium "phone" plugin shows (2) and the text is correct"you have missed calls with the time of the last missed call"

- lock screen does NOT SHOW missed call

- if you check the missed calls list the call is there (once. so now you have 3 calls in missed calls).

3rd missed call

- Taskbar icon / Notification on bottom bar indicates 3 missed calls

- Titanium "phone" plugin shows (3) and the text is correct"you have missed calls with the time of the last missed call"

- lock screen SHOWS missed calls (3) in open slide button and shows missed calls icon (3).

- if you check the missed calls list the call is there (once. so now you have 4 calls in missed calls).

If you dismiss the notifications or read the calls between tests apparently you reset the counters and you need to restart from 1st missed call. Results are the same for "missed calls" or "reject call".

Hope someone can make sense of this.

cheers

Spocky and I are not working together, we exchanged some ideas and results.I do appreciate his work and he knows much more than I do about tweaking. Concerning the differences between our ROMS, I haven't tested his yet.

@majorasshole, first post is updated with your work, thanx a lot.

@hello8985, thanx for the links.

@pr3fab, I think your experiments with the missed call notifications are the result of the small ks20.exe added in windows/startup. Without it you could not have described all this process because there wouldn't have been any. Ks20.exe is absolutely necessary to save missed call notifications if you don't want to use magicall, but as you noticed it only starts working with second missed call...

@ligxuv, sleepyxda and assmonk3y you're welcome :)

I updated my package for stability reasons. The EzInput occurs to hang for an unknown reason (not immediately, but after some intensive typing) on latest build on KisS 20.x and Farah's versions. So I replaced the package by FingerKeyboard 2.1 which doesn't suffers of this flaw. I, naturally, added Sipchange, but didn't included it in the Autoconfiguration to let you the choice of your SIP selection. Add a timing of 20 sec for boot in SIP change to allow a nice and smooth init of the keyboard.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
I ask for other users of any 23004 build if they encounter a keyboard disparition after few hours of usage. No way to choose anything else than the MS keyb, even after some remove/install clean procedures. I switched back to 23003 to se if it occurs, or if it's linked to a depedency with softwares, or to a bug in the build.

Update : the bug doesn't occur with 23003 build after more than 24 hours of running. Might be safe to advice to wait for next XIP 23007 or fall back to 23K3 if you want to avoid such annoyance.
