an issue

hi krazy ! i've got some feedback.

issue 1 -while playing media player with headset and device on standby, when file (song) ends, the device would totally hang. even power button won't work. only soft reset is to be done. no way out.

issue 2- audio manager would not go to the yester side songs (upper from song that is being played ). if u try so, again the same song gets selected. no issues in selecting next songs. i mean if u r playing song no. 5 u cant select any one from song no 1-4. if tried, again song no 5 will b played. selecting any song from 5 onwards is no problem. plz c if i m the only facing this problem or it's common. gr8 work done.:)

@Zeeshan: Are you the Zeeshan Quereshi from Digit forum, the "c# be sharp" guy :) ? Anyways, i checked the old gene file, its perfectly fine. Either you got a corrupted download or your system has a virus that infects exe files. If you have 7zip installed then try renaming the file to .7z and open it with 7zip. 7zip is an open source archive manager available at www.7zip.org.

@mehra: Media Player is being updated in every build and it does have some problems. Problems like these will come and go between builds, there is nothing we can do.

2. The issue you are having is due to malformed mp3 files, i am not having this one. Try taking off the data from your SD card, format and again copy the data back. If that doesn't works, try to reencode the songs with a converter like SUPER etc.

Thanks man, renaming to 7z did the trick. And no, I'm not Zeeshan Qureshi, the only thing I know about C# be sharp is that it's a clever title :D

krazy... i asked u about how to delete the internet folder from rom because i seacrhed the all app.reg files in packages... please tell me how the internet folder formed ... ??:)
[P3400 ROM Development] BesFen:
There are 2 possible location of that Folder.

1. in the "app.dat" file, try search in that file of every folder inside EXT\Packages, open it with Notepad, OR

2. open "initflash.dat" inside OEM_Lang_0409.
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
@rehmanee: All folders have been created in app.dat of 1FolderIcons package. Try to use some common sense yaar :) No offence buddy.

Pro Users WM 6.5 Edition ROM+Full Kitchen v7.0 CE OS build 23009 now available!

The build is the latest, built on 16 July, from the stable COM 3 branch. Not much changes have been done, but the theme API is again getting changes here and there so had to patch up a few things. The build is faster than 23004/23007.

Downloading the latest build !!!

When would you will be going to release build 21925?

This build is also written as WM 6.5.1, so does that mean that now we are more closer to the RTM version of Windows Mobile 6.5.
[P3400 ROM Development] ankit360:
RTM is already released , this all are post RTM like u got various AKU in 6.1
[P3400 ROM Development] htc3400:
hi sumit...

just flashed this rom its beautiful, and whats all about the showcase thing...is it something that comes with the ROM or is it an application you added...
[P3400 ROM Development] kb_htc4173:
thnnnxxxxxxxxxxx dude u r really rocking man........:):)
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
@rahul_cool : 219xx and 230xx are two branches of development of WIndows Mobile 6.5. 219xx or the MD1 branch is used to test unstable features and it contains slightly old OS code. CUrrently it is under going heavy UI changes which, in my view, makes these builds a bit unusable for daily purpose. There are many UI anomalies that you will find in these builds. And 21925 is rather old one, 21928 is already out since last 4 days :)

230xx or COM3, on the other hand, is the stable branch. It contains latest OS code and only those features which have been tested and approved for inclusion in the release version. All the changes in 219xx which are found to be worthy will come to this branch eventually.

So as a conclusion you may not see a 219xx build from me unless it is something really exciting :)

@htc3400: Showcase is the new task manager i am using. It is very lightweight, its fast, its beautiful and i just love it. You didn't noticed the new icon on homescreen, where there use to be the htc taskmanager icon? This is a quiet noob question, from someone like you :D dont mind, no offence meant. Search the Development and Hacking forum, you will its thread. And one more thing, it is being developed currently, so i have designed the ROM in such a way that you can update the version if a new one comes out and i haven't posted a new ROM with it yet. :)

Thanks for your appreciation guys! Enjoy your phone!

@Sumit

battery icon problem solved in 23009 rom????
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
NO. And its not a problem, its an intended change by Microsoft. It may transform into something else later but for now this is what comes from MS.

@Danny: Ya, i love the app too. Version 1.0.1b solved most of the problems so i included it. Its lighter than HTC Task manager (130KB as opposed to 670 KB) and personally, i think it provides much better functionality, plus is more visually appealing :)

[P3400 ROM Development] htc3400:
hey thanks for the clarification...

my fault...dint notice it...:o
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
I guess you guys dont read other forums. Let me answer all your queries :

@badalssj4: Not much is known about anything new, the overall speed has been increased a bit, atleast i felt so.

@htc3400: Since build 23003 this error/feature addition is there. Microsoft is trying to add a new feature where there is a provision for seperate icon for selected icon. This has been implemented in the 23003+ GWES.exe file. Some of the cooks replace the GWES.exe from one that came in 23001 to come by this problem but i think that is not a great idea since all the development in GWES, known or unknown, is discarded then. So i always include the original GWES.

Guys, I dont think you guys are getting it. You are not using a final code that has been released to public. This is development stuff so expect to see things like these in future also. This is not like 6.1 which is already released to public and enhancements are only being done to its speed and stability issues. In 6.5 even features are being added and deleted right now. And what we are using are daily development builds leaked from different sources.

So it can happen that for some things, even we chefs dont have solution. What we can do, we always do. Like in 23009, there was a problem with start menu background not being darkened like it was in all previous builds. So on bright white background pictures like that in Rock and Republic Black, the text of start menu items was not visible. But this problem was solved even before the ROM reached you. :)

@Danny: Thanks buddy. Linking your post in post #1.
[P3400 ROM Development] BesFen:
Please correct me if i am wrong, CE OS 5.2.18128 Build 21501.5.0.70, it mean XIP 18128 and SYS 21501, Why do you use 18128 xip? not 21501?

Thanks Friend.
[P3400 ROM Development] jyot:
if u dont mind can uprovide me wid the link

thnx fr each awsum rom u cooked

u r a gr8 chef...lol :)

thnx
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
@BesFan : Are you sure thats what it means?? I take XIP from my WM 6 original ROM, replace OEMXIPPackage FIles in it, relocate those files and the use that XIP? How come XIP version be different then? I am using the same XIP files that ankit provided me. I am not questioning your knowledge, i just dont know what each and every part means. All i know is that the last 2 numbers tell the AKU version.

And if thats the case, can you give me the 21501 xip?

@Jyot: NO i do mind that. Go to pro users 6.1 ROM thread and read first 3 posts, you'll find it. I at least expect that from you :)
[P3400 ROM Development] BesFen:
Ankit already give 21501 xip, did you replace OEMXIPPackage folder only? how about coredll.dll, nk.exe, and others files? did you replace that all? If you only replace OEMXIPPackage folder, that is make your xip still old.

This version 18128, same with your VanilaManila xip and M 6.1 Pro User's ROM v2 Revision 4 build 2. Usually cooker don't use xip version too far from SYS version, almost is same with SYS version. look others ROM, example helge's ROM: CE 5.2.21501 (build 21501.6.5.70), Ankit's WM 6.5: CE OS 5.2.21139 (Build 21139.5.0.0), It 's from atom forum http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=505750.

I will download your ROM for OLD Gene, and injecting xip provided by ankit without modifying your ROM content, and will give you result the xip version soonest.
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Oh I m sorry, i wrote it wrong, I only change MSXIPKernel folder which contains coredll.dll and 16 other dll files like filesys.exe and device.exe etc. OEMXIPFolder i never touch as it contains device specific files like nk.exe etc.

Now since coredll.dll is also changed, how come my XIP is old ? :confused:
[P3400 ROM Development] BesFen:
I don't know, I just read your OS Version. Maybe you need to hex the version in xip :D.
[P3400 ROM Development] justintxu:
Hey man

I tried to dump the NEW GENE but i have problems, the process was frozen, what tool used you?

:confused:
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
If you are dumping it using ramerson's kitchen, it wont work properly. Try the manual method given by Ramerson in his Tutorial to Gene cooking thread.
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
@BesFen : Buddy, i tried to report the XIP given by Helgee from his ROM. As always, i took the original dumped XIP, took the helgee's XIP and replaced all the files in original XIP that were from MSXIPKernel folder. This is the list of files i replaced :

I then relocated the modules according to the addresses of modules in original XIP. Then i used this xip to create out.bin using buildxip.exe. But Still i got the same version string. Where i could be wrong man? i have no idea :confused:
[P3400 ROM Development] ramersonw:
Hi Sumit,

Verify the version in 723fb954-d931-4348-b672-82a188e587b5.dsm. You can use DSMinfo for that. That way you should know which xip version you have.
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Oh, the DSM has that???? My god. i never changed the DSM. Lemme check it.
[P3400 ROM Development] justintxu:
Hey Mate

Thank you very much, I dumped the ROM properly, using the manual method of Ramerson that you told me. :eek:

Thank you again !!!!!!!!! :D
[P3400 ROM Development] BesFen:
Is this work well? By change that DSM can update the XIP version? Pls inform me.

Thanks.

Hi, I have been using the 6.5 ROM for the last couple of days on my old Gene without any problems. It's really good.

u again rock man.good battery backup...very fast rom..no issue except that wm player stop playing after suspend..
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
@EVERYBODY: Did anybody noticed! The BATTERY BACKUP IS SUPERB IN THIS BUILD! I am getting 4 days of backup! Just Double the backup from WM 6.1, ISNT IT AMAZING GUYS!

Sorry for the capitals, that was just my excitement :D

On a serious note, I have refined this build a little. There are some changes that I have made :

1 and @BesFen. First of all, i have found out the reason why the XIP version of this ROM was wrong and have changed it. Now the OS version of new ROM is CE OS 5.2.21501 (Build 21501.5.0.70). The problem was i was not copying the DSM file that Ramerson stated in his post. Thanks for Ramerson for the tip! :)

2. Removed FileDialogChanger from ROM, it was no longer working with WM 6.5 and making it hang.

3. VCDaemon.exe and TMail.exe no longer start on its own now and that saves about 200 KB od RAM, not much but not bad either.

4. Audio Manager and Windows Media Player now play music in standby.

5. Also applied some small tweaks her and there that i cannot clearly mention here.

Over all its just some small improvement as an attempt to make the ROM perfect.

I haven't uploaded the ROM yet, will post here when i am done with uploading, so stay tuned! :)

Upload kitchen

@ Krazy

Dear can u pls upload the kitchen.....

I know its too much too ask.....or could u give tips to on how to remove help, query analyzer, getting started msn money and task manager 2

will use the tools by Ramersonw to dump the ROM and get sorted folders

Would be a great help
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Well, i used the manual method this time, so there is no kitchen to upload :) Just dump the rom with Ramerson's tools (his kitchen wont work though). To remove the said components, follow these steps:

1. Help is compiled from multiple places so its not easy to remove. But it is made out of HTML file so search and delete those. Just keep in mind to not delete in *BROWSING* (notice the *, as in dos commands it specifies all folders that have BROWSING in their name, in other words Internet Explorer folders), those are necessary. You wont gain more than 500KB by removing help so it may be a better idea to leave it alone.

2. Query analyzer is part of SQL Server 3.5 so to remove it, go to sys\SqlCEMobile folder and delete isqlw35.exe and isqlw35.lnk. If you want to delete the SQL Server altogether, which is not a really good idea since some apps need it sometimes, remove the SqlCEMobile and SqlCEMobile_Lang_0409 folders. But never touch SQLCE folder, its needed by pocket outlook.

3. Getting started can be removed by removing WelcomeCenter and WelcomeCenter_0409 folders in SYS.

4. MSN Money can be deleted by deleting the file Money.widget in SYS\WMWidgets folder. Other two widgets (live search and MSN Weather are also here in form of .widget files if you need to remove those too.)

5. TaskManager2 is in the OEM folder in form of a folder named taskmgr. Remove that, although when you need to troubleshoot your phone sometimes, its badly needed so i wont recommend to remove it.

I hope this will help you in customizing the ROM as per your needs. :)

here are folder that save to be deleted:

autoupdate

adobe flash

browsingie

welcome center

skybox

skymarket

transcriber

weatherwidget

lockscreen

entertaint

and follder ****Lang_0409 related to the above folder.

I remember only that for this time, I will check it in my laptop tonight.

I think Opera is not free, but you can take it from TF2D's official htc Rom, port it and you will find opera.

Initial Feedback V7

First, thanks for the 4shared link ;)

Initial feedback:

1. Speed is better than version 6.0 (Will still use omapclock :D).

2. Using it with WM7 project, still speed it excellent.

3. Thanks for Simple regedit (was there in V6 as well), and showcase is also good (but I really LOVE wktask). Got to explore more of showcase.

4. Took so long to download since I was downloading using my GPRS connection, that too in Jharkhand (just couldn't resist the itch of trying your new ROM :D).

5. I also prefer PIE5, but I think you are using PIE6 for the widgets :). And most importantly its your ROM, you ARE the boss :).

Overall a GREAT ROM.

Will keep you posted for bugs :D.

One question:

Instead of using Camera Loader if I use camera on/off application posted shared by Besfen/ Helgee (don't remember who :p), will I get more free RAM? Since I use my K790i for taking snaps, I really don't use the camera. As a matter of fact I mostly used my Gene for Calls and Surfing :p.

Buddy, Guess its time to revive MV Extreme :)
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Hmm.. One day i was away, and so many posts :D

1. Manilla based ROM :Well, dunno, really. Personally i use either HTC Home (really really love it :) ) or titanium. And you know something which i dont prefer personally, rarely finds place in my ROMs. I have also provided kitchen so those who are desperate for it may try that. I dont find manilla as functional and as light as HTC Home. Even titanium falls short of functionality. The only time when i use titanium is when i get some really good looking (and/or sexy :D ) wallpaper and i want to set it on my today screen. Titanium is great for that. Plus, RAM problem is also there. For manilla, 3-3.5 MB of RAM is required while HTC home and titanium run in .8MB and 1.5 MB respectively. So if i ever felt a need for change of interface, then only there will be a Manilla ROM, otherwise take the kitchen and do it yourself, use your head. Its plain and straight answer from me. Sorry for being rude, but no more manilla demands please :o

2. Removing IE 6: Why do you guys need WM 6.5? If you dont appreciate its new features and want to remain with plain old things like manilla, go back to 6.1. IE 6 is needed for the Widget platform to run, which is very important for me. Plus IE 6 has some great features like it can detect when its not the default browser and i can make it default whenever i want, no more gundagardi of opera (i dont know english for that, if somebody asks, please somebody translate :D ). The interface is nice, it opens sites well. So NO, its not going. In 6.1 it was not playing any significant role, so all my roms have IE mobile 5.5 if you guys haven't noticed.

Removing IE6 also causes problems with Email by the way as mshtml.dll is needed for that.

@Addicted: Thanks for the feedback buddy. As for the camera loader, yes that on off utility also does the same job but you cant load the camera dynamically then. And NO you wont gain any more ram with it. It uses the same procedure to disable camera as camera loader. Camera Loader just goes a step further by providing mechanism to dynamically load camera driver on demand.
[P3400 ROM Development] Addicted2xda:
Just wondering, have you tried the WM7 Project by ibrythill? I know a lot of pple don't like it, but its pretty convenient with fave pple plugin, titanium weather (needs that mortscript anyway) and a new notifications panel.

I also, don't give too much of a hoot about IE6, since I use opera mini anyway (since it syncs my favourites :D). I actually use IE only once, to download opera mini :D. But was just thinking about the free mem.

As previously told, I will no longer wish for Manilla, since I got Titanium Weather working :)
