I've flashed 28004 and of course the know problem (call/wait tone) still exists. So i tried to delete callwait.mid but i can't. Both resco explorer and total commander tell me that this is a rom file and can not be deleted. Do you know how can i delete this file?

call busy trouble persist in 28004

Hi,

I confirm the call/Busy ringing trouble still exist in this last release.

I have two LG KS20, flashed with 28004 and one with French SFR one with Orange Mobicard, i can reproduce each time on the Orange mobicard one !

Even if we succeed to delete the .mid file the PPC will loose CPU to try finding this file or thinks like that ...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Same thing if you force GSM in Start/System/Phone/Band ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zalaros:
In my case yes :( No changes...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Deosneos:
Some feedback on 28004:

-As far as I can tell the rom is pretty stable, a lot more so than 28002 anyway. I had it hang a couple of time during cab installs though, but this is the only problem I encountered so far

-Speed: mayor improvement. Titanium still takes too long to become responsive after wake-up. SMS menu, however still slow, starts a lot faster, same goes for contacts. All other menu's seems almost instantaneous, great to use.

-I really welcome the return of bounce at the end of lists, but it used to be a stronger effect (more "stretch" at the end, in the....71 rom I think) and I preferred it that way, it felt more natural

-The sliders appearance is inconsistent. I really like the one without the dots on in that appears when composing or reading messages, the one with dots (in the inbox) is less nice.

-Mayor issue: the dialer has started dying again. I described this behavior earlier and it's back in this build. Very annoying and it really kills the deal for this build.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zank19:
This dial tone repeat thing is pretty annonying. It makes me reboot every time I make a call :-( How can I really fix it... any idea...? No other additional programs installed, just the plain build.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] scoody:
i confirm dial tone trouble the same even if fix the band to gsm.

I agree on slow SMS (time to get the application running, then NEW message)

I agree also on look of lift buttons less nice with dots.

Which Keyboard do you use ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
For testing purpose as I can see in your MF folder ? ;)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rickou26:
;) yes if you want !

I tested the build 28005 and it seems less efficient. the build seems to be the 28004 who currently is the most powerful and terms of responsiveness.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] FaisalNahian:
going for 28004 tomorrow!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] 500mdh:
The only way I findout to solve this is to enable the video call on the dialer skin.

Deep sh*t with my girlfriend's KS20

Edit problem solved : I did a NV restore using QPST 2.7 build 323 and an unbranded nv file created with LG - KS20 NV2 - QCN TOOLS.exe (using my IMEI). I had to check ESN mismatch checkbox before restoring.

sorry for interrupting ! (I leave the message for other having trouble)

---------------------------------------------

That was my first flashing try with a ks20... and it turned bad...

the KS20 is from SFR I think bought in november 2007. I think it's a 1.0b as written in my nv2 backup... but when connected it says 1.0e now (I flashed 1.0f then 1.0b)

I followed a tutorial from "ibanezman192"...

--> I made a backup of my nv2 with LGMDP which hanged with a 97kb file that I trashed

--> I made a second backup with LGMDP which worked with a 117kb file ==> my nv2 branded backup

--> I sim-unlocked my phone

--> I made an unbranded.nv2 (with LG - KS20 NV2 - QCN TOOLS.exe), (I misundertood a little the interface (the guide is unclear) and maybe I did something wrong... see below

--> I flashed this 6.5.3 rom with my unbranded.nv2 and got no service (antenna with exclamation point)

--> I flashed again 6.5.3 rom with my branded.nv2 and got OTP invalid

--> In emergency, I flashed sfr rom1.0f (branded) and got no service

--> I flashed sfr rom1.0f (branded) with my branded nv2 and got no service

--> I flashed sfr rom1.0b (branded) with my branded nv2 and got no service

--> I tried using a "created" unbranded nv2 with 6.5.3 rom and got no service

--> I tried using my original nv2 after unbranding with 6.5.3 rom and got no service

In LGMDP, I see IMEI : NOT_ACTIVE_____ (same for bluetooth, Cal Date) after every flash or so.

If I Write my IMEI with QPST, the key (last digit) calculated by phone is 0 whereas on my phone label it says 3...

--> I can't use NV Restore from LGMDP, I get the message "Error NVBackup File not Exist" Is it because of the hang during the first nv2 backup ? or because of IMEI last digit ?

my backup nv2 :

I've got a save.nv2 created by LG - KS20 NV2 - QCN TOOLS.exe which is the same file bitwise as the file NV_KS20_357323-01-zzzzzz-3-350-205808.nv2 I think is my original nv2 and both says branded when opened with LG - KS20 NV2 - QCN TOOLS.exe)

Please I'm missing direction now... I just would like to have network back !!!

edit since majorasshole reply below :

Ok thank you for this link (I'll PM raykisi to have a unbranded nv2)

and well I'm really sorry to polute the thread (that's why I'm editing my post instead or adding others)...

But in the meantime, can I do something with my nv2 orginal backup and a branded rom that I didn't ?

Also I've notice something freaky my ESM field in QPST says DEADD00D... I've seen screen capture with 0 on forums...

hi majorasshole, question about ur PI pack..

the pocketRAR doesn't seem to work ...

when i try to start it ..it appears to be the setting page..

it seems that i have to press ok to agree on the setting..

but there is no ok button...n other button doesn't work ..

any idea?

thanks a lot for ur pi pack...it's really useful
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
I never included PocketRAR in my PI, I guess you use a rom from Spocky, and try to use the one included in it.

Yes, but it replaces the "Call History" button with "Video Call" button which is useless for me. Plus I use Call History feature the most for calling, its a must thing for me?

Any idea how to replace Video Calling button with Call History button?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zank19:
@Zarco: For repeating dial tone, you can turn video calling on in the registry by:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin] Enabled = 1

Then install app PnonEx 2 for dialer, it is a very good dialer with call history function and runs pretty smooth for me.

No more repeating dial tones for me :-) (so far atleast)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zalaros:
Yes but how much remaining ram do you have now?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zank19:
25 MB program memory free... But this build is pretty slow though, you need to be patient while using.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
I can tell the exact contrary, so something goes wrong with your setup. You switched to "ext"="LgePhoneExt.dll" ?

That's an advice for everybody : if you want to custom dialers, add M2D or HTC stuffs, or gadgetising the device till death tears it appart, stick with WM 6.1's Spocky Flavour. Each build is a new 6.5.x testing path., so don't go too far in customizing, since basic features are not guaranteed to be top notch.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zank19:
I dont know, I have an unbranded KS20, and I have flashed it multiple times. I even did not include any apps from your PI too. Just plain WM6.5 ROM and still it has problems of speed and usability. I have also tried setting LgePhoneExt.dll in "ext" registry-value. There is no other app or gadget installed.

To have a workaround of repeating dial tone problem, I switched on video calling, which makes the Call History function unavailable to access with a keypress. So I installed PhoneEx2. PhoneEx2 has a very pretty decent interface and usability, but after a couple of days of use, I have encountered several issue with that too, like the call is coming and showing but can not be answered, dialer seems to get hanged :-) This is pretty annonying if you have too much calling (which most have)

I'm thinking to switch to Kis ROM tonight to test my phone. If its stable, fast and able to bear external apps, then I will stick to that for now, untill a more rfined build of WM6.5 is released. Yes I will miss WM6.5 fetaures though :-(

Guys, from where can I find any official LG English ROM for unbranded KS20 phones? I found one HKG 10a link of RapidShare, but its not avaialable for free users. Can anyone help me in that...?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Just wait a little bit, the free slots will be unlocked. Try early in the morning if you can. If I can get one for you I reupload it anytime soon.

Spocky's ROM will please you if you want stable features. Latest 20.5b is solid.

For your test you will find the build 28005 on my mediafire.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
I would test 28004 with pleasure, but Mediafire seems to have an issue since few days on the server attributed to the file. So I can't download it since few days.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zegro:
version 28005 from rickou downloaded , i will test it !!!

i still cant download your 28004 rickou, perhaps there is a problem with the file on the server
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cybersolo:
hi everyone, it seems that 28004 is working out just fine with Autolock 1.7E. It is runnning smoothly for few days without the waking up issue. Anyone experienced on it too?

btw, S2U2 is giving problem with the Caller ID, have to revert back to WM6.5 lock instead.

Just curious is S2U2 working for you guys?

note: after disable caller id feature, but sometimes it appears again overlapping with WM6.5 default phone.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Choose the "only when locked" option in GDI rendering mode to use CallerID fx of S2U2.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] scoody:
28004 is less stable for me than previous one. More freeze (3 in one week), then also hangs when phone in. Very long also to wake up .

28005 is better on thoses points or not ?:confused:

Recherche ROM KS20 FR 6.5

Bonjour, je suis Français et je cherche une ROM LG KS20 en Français en 6.5 avec un mode d'emploi car avec mon anglais approximatif, je crains de ne pas comprendre une phrase dans les étapes à suivre et ainsi planter mon KS20.

J'ai vu que "farahbolsey" a éditer une ROM

Celle ci est elle en Français et elle entièrement fonctionnelle (tél, sms, mms, wifi, bluetooth ...) ?

Merci d'avance pour vos réponses

Cordialement

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Sorry for the "appartée" in french.

Les roms de Farah sont en anglais international uniquement, tout comme le forum. Merci de ne pas poster ici en français sous peine de modération.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zank19:
hmm, installed Spocky's Wm 6.1 ROM last night, its quite fast and stable (so far). No more hangups. But no more WM 6.5 also :-( Well I think I have to wait a couple of months more to get my hands on WM6.5.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] zegro:
will try your 28005 tonight (so i will compare with the rickou version)

thx FB
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Deosneos:
Any feedback on the stability of 28005 yet? This COM 8 branch has been highly unstable for me up till now and I don't feel like flashing to something that will make me miss calls/alarms again.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cybersolo:
too bad still not working, regardless S2U2 locked or not, the caller id screen appear together with default wm6.5 phone, flickering and overlapping each other. give up already. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] scoody:
28005 smoother than 28004, less wait time in menus, no hangs at that time 28004 was too bad for me, worst than previous ones. But i don't know what are really the changes ... Would be better to explain exactly what is modified in each release, to see if it can solve some troubles or not. We update without knowing what we can expect ... Thanks for all your good job !
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Those builds are leaked, and WIP, so they are not documented by MS devs with features / Buglist, and the feature list is not "stable". Then, there is no specific 6.5 build for KS20, so many implemented features can interact badly with the kitchen from time to time. Only observation and testing can tell, and it's the purpose of this ROM. You should expect testing and discovering.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Currently testing LockDevice 1.6 for 3 days without lockups (including 2 days with rickou's 28005). Might be a keeper to get back to WM 6.5 locking.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Deosneos:
I've been thinking about this for a while now. It could be a good idea for a couple of active flashers and testers (I'd certainly help) to create their own thread, with the purpose of flagging more or less "stable" ROMs that we could recommend to users that want 6.5 for day to day use.

Btw, I've been testing ezinput 1.5 (dutch language pack) with 28002 for a couple of days now, and I haven't encountered buggy behaviour. I also get the feeling that it deploys and types smoother and faster than SIP keyboard. Maybe worth having another look at for the PI?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] trybi:
Sorry people if there was allready that issue, but i'm not really following this (or any) thread:)

I've flashed my ks20 with 28004 and i have a very annoying problem! when doing something on the device (texting, using apps), the phone is ringing but i can't answer coz nothing shows up!:eek: luckily later it can be seen in the call-reg. it even happens when doing nothing:(

second thing is that the system crashes (and self-resets) very often during browsing the net with built-in IE. tried opera but it hangs the devise totally

was the previous sys better with that? i've used the 28060 and it was doing really good for me.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
XT9 works for you ?

Edit : I reinstalled EzInput 1.5, and I'm currently making further tests. If everything is okay in the next 48h, I will release a refreshed PI with allcomplete language packs included (it's the main plus of EzInput to be embeded with XT9, so native languages supported have their own thesaurus for words' prediction).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Try to flash in 28005, and make a hard reset after flashing the device. If it still occurs, get back to the best build you tried.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gomox:
after 24hr: 28005 fast and stable than previous builds.

Btw,where can i get best price for KS20 housing with Touch Pad? :rolleyes:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Deosneos:
Has been working flawlessly since I installed it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
For me too with french language, so it seems it will come back in the PI more than soon.

Refreshed and upgraded PI :

http://dl.free.fr/oj0qM45xV

http://www.mediafire.com/file/mygw0tmmmod/Extendir.zip

The password needed is my nickname with a capital M.

What's in :

M2D full package, organized in order to avoid problems. Normal profile gives you the vanilla M2D distribution (with it's lot of bugs), and Optimized is here to get the near best experience, but not so neat and fully overload of fancy features. This comes "as is". Don't come to this thread to moan with "Oh why M2D this, why M2D that" :

it's a dev rom topic and not the place for third party app support !

Titanium directory contains few themes. Arthemus dialer skin and HTC Black are a great mix !

What's new :

Opera Mobile 10 beta 2

. For testing purpose. Nice improvements, and many bugs fixed. Might be the next default Web browser. Have a taste and test it before choosing.

DeviceLock 1.6

: root back to WM6.5 locking, installed by default. Choose the "Lock on Screen Off" option. No bugs found till now for me.

EzInput 1.5

: it's back and it's fully working. Default keyboard of choice, with english language package. Many languages are embedded in this PI, but only those who have a full working layout and and thesaurus. So don't ask for more, and go to EzInput 1.5 thread to find missing packages.

If they are not in, that's because they are incomplete.

Cabs for default keyboard behaviour are also included (T9/ABC).

Warning : you have to go into the input settings section and choose once your language, and then soft reset. EzInput will work properly only after this action, whatever lang pack you choose to use.

new rom problem

hi farahbolsey,

i am a hong kong ks20 user which have some questiones/problems after flashing with the latest 6.5 rom (WM6.5.3 CE OS 5.2.28005 (Build 28005 FB) WWE Clean)

1. After the flashing process i can run my phone normally except i don't have any incoming call notification and miss call notification and any ringtone when there is a call. Which means i cannot pick up any call even the other side had dial my numbers. and i cannot retrieve any miss call records in the history.

2. my service provider remains an ! mark all the time on the top of the today screen even i am chatting with another friend on phone.

3. after i press the "end" button on the phone panal (both the hardware/soft keys on screen) i cannot end the phone.

thanks if you have any ideas to help me fix the problems, and at last i appreciate for what you have contribute to us*

look forward to getting your reply! cheers

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Phantom2380:
Sweeet! I'm flashing now.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Flashed, HR, and installed.

The new MS stock keyboard is better than I though. Not the best layout ever, but a decent precision in typing. Pretty good.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Phantom2380:
I agree. It's decent.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Cissmayazz:
Indeed, but too bad it's not fully qwerty :(

And the rom seems faster and stable. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
That's a mixed bag for me. I get back to 28005 which seems to behave faster with mailing and texting. Then, if the layout is decent, the lack of T9 and some usefull links to symbols don't give the best finger typing experience. So 28005 with EzInput is still the best for me ATM.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Deosneos:
I have this really annoying bug in 28005 where my phone hangs completely when trying to close the text-app. It happens consistently and always requires a soft-reset and is really a deal breaker. This is a real pity as it is indeed a very good rom without this behavior.
