Hi

I'm integrating in next build a auotprofile shortcut in "system" for easier access. I've already filled autoprofile with french operators, if you want me to integrate yours, send me your "operator.xml file" that includes internet and MMS settings so I can implement next ROM.

And here comes a mirror for 23009 : http://dl.free.fr/rzEuNsCZB

I updated and upgraded my 6.5 pack (now extendir only) with special cabs for a full featured widget exprience made easy : now with the cab to enable widget support (extension is taken by default by Opera if you installed it, with this cab, each WM 6.5 widget you click is taken by default in charge by the WinMo engine), upgraded Opera build (faster cold start, and overvall speed improvements without stability compromises. Flash support is dropped, but with widgets and dedicated apps for Facebook, or Youtube, it's not that usefull. Iris is still present as an alternative.), updated to latest GoogleMaps, SIPchange included to enable FingerKeyboard as default SIP (just don't forget to assign a 20 sec boot init time instead of 10. EzInput 1.5 removed, waiting for a refreshed 2.1 QVGA version to recover the Compact layout), and as a finish, Showcase task manager to replace the default HTC task manager (more finger-friendly, lighter in mem, and no compromise, you still keep the complete Taskmanager applet in system settings).

Hello, there is any way to i update my WM 6.5 to last build without erase, my things, like contacts and files? And i try enter in engineer menu and don't works, i installed the FB Windiag_C.Mgr and don't works.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
No, you have to flash and then, lose everything. For your contacts, if you don't have an exchange account, juste make an active sync and synchronize everything you have on your PPC. If you are a bit paranoïd (and that's always a quality ;)), juste copy/paste your files on your mSD card with total commander. If you are well organized, this should be enough and quick to do it.

Well, if your phone is already unbranded, you don't really need the engineer menu. Just flash in emergency mode (press the answer button, internet shortcut on the left side, and power button in the same time, a green still led appears on the upper right of the phone).

! WARNING ! make sure before anything you've got a BACKUP of your NVn and a pretty good amount of battery left before flashing. Too much wild flashes without precautions those times ;)

Same problem here. Sometimes I restart the phone and can't see nothing on start menu, then I restart the phone again and it boot working fine.

PS: I'm using build 23001, and LGMDP only connect on MS20 using emergency mode, probably because I'm using a KS20 drivers on MS20 hardware. It shows KS20......., not MS20...... like when I used the original rom. Is there any way to connect on normal mode again to update my build to 23009?

I have a backup of my NV, but doesnt wanna flash on emergency mode because I'm not sure if the phone will connect on LGMDP after flashing to restore NV files, and this will kill the phone function.

Hi,

I have flashed the phone to using KS20 WM6.5 CE OS 5.2.23009 (Build 23009 FB)10E WWE Clean, but I got problem.

When installing using LGMDP EURO, the phone's details (e.g. IMEI) were listed, no errors I think.

After starting the phone, it cannot find any network, no signal at all. The phone actually recognize the SIM.

Tried *#06# the IMEI is gone. I still have the backup file NV_KS20_20090729-162942.nv2.

What should I do now to cure my phone?

Please help. Thanks.

Richard,

p/s:

I followed this guide:

Step 1: Download all the need files.

ROM file.

Kiss CAB packages(this is just some of the optional cab installers for things like MSN)

http://ifile.it/ixvqua3

LGMDP (this is the program you use to flash the ROM onto the phone)

http://ifile.it/3wsl8o6

LGCoronaUSB drivers( self explaintory)

http://ifile.it/o4318ei

WinDiag.cab (just install this to enable LGMDP to recongise the phone)

http://ifile.it/tnrfmoc

Step 2:

Enter the engineering menu by pressing the call button to enter the dialpad, and keying in the following code. 2676625720#

Now set the following settings.

press:

Port Setting → 1. Diag Setting → 1. USB Set for Diag → “OK” → “Back”.

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

-press Done and reset your device.

Step 3

On your computer:

Install the Corona USB drivers

Extract LGMDP EURO out.

Extract the ROM files out.

Step 4:

At this time, transfer the WinDiag.cab file to the phone and install it.

Start up LGMDP EURO, and connect the phone to the computer.

Click on "Select Port" in LGMDP( a dialog should appear which will detect your phone as a COM port make sure it says enabled for the status)

LGMDP should be able to recognized the phone by now.

Step 5:

Click on select Image Button on LGMDP,

Another Dialog page should appear.

Click on the browse button of the first line and select the ROM folder. (the rest of the lines should fill up automatically as well after this)

(Please make sure erase EFS option is selected.)

Step 6:

Click start and click yes when it ask if you wanna back up yr NV data.

Now just hope and pray nothing goes wrong.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Farah, do you explore the Extendir solution ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] elkoos:
Regarding RAM:

I think current usage and mem available is more than enough for us, users, without sacrificing stability of the phone.

KS20 is KS20, it has limited (very limited) memory so it is not going to change into HTC Hero with 256MB RAM.

Peace.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] _richard_:
Thanks for the link. As you suggestion, the problem is SIM lock right?

I think my phone is unbranded because there is only LG logo during booting time. Sometimes we still need to unlock unbranded phone?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
You just missed your flashing procedure. If you really want to know the real status of your phone, remove the batt, look at the back plate of the KS20 under battery, and see if you've got an operator mark. Sometimes, operators sell branded devices without customized roms.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Well, with chosen configuration and apps, the mem available is really nice now, and memory could be greatly used with Extendir to speed up some acceses. In a normal use under 6.5 (Titanium applets, Opera, Outlook, thumbcal, Magicall loaded), there's some space left for a 4/6Mb page pool...and from what I've heard, even Hero may be sluggish ;) That's the price of heavy HTC customisation.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] _richard_:
I don't see any mark under the batt. What do you mean by missing the flashing procedure? It took me about 18 mins to flash using the normal mode. Now when LGMDP connects to the phone, it always turns to Emergency mode --> don't know how to restore the nv2 file bcos there is no option to choose nv2.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
For sure you won't see any option in emergency mode. You have to go back to a hybrid branded rom with windiag included (this one for example : English-HK-10a + French-voda-10f Rom you will find here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=405945).

Read this thread from post 104 to 118 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=2531611#post2531611
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] _richard_:
I tried and still got issue.

Before flashing back to English-HK-10a + French-voda-10f, there is no message like "Invalid SIM", "Unavailable OTP Block".

After doing it in emergency mode then restoring the nv2 file, the serial No. is backed but there are messages like "Invalid SIM", "Unavailable OTP Block", "Illegal Use"

majorasshole, do you have any suggestion?

I think my phone is unbraded T____T

I am having this battery error quite often. Anyone also experience this any remedy?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hello8985:
any good keyboard to recommend?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Well, for the battery warning, it's a long long known bug with Ks20 6.5 roms as the GSM driver reloading related to non-native LG drivers.

My most recent UC contains FingerKeyboard at least, and EzInput 1.5 suite. EzIntput is not the most stable, but has a CompactQwerty layout (2.0 and 2.1 versions are too tricky for the moment to be used daily). FingerKeyboard is stable, fully featured Qwerty layout and very easy to custom. The only restriction is to install and configure SIPChange with a 15 or 20 sec delay to set it as default keyboard at startup.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hello8985:
somehow my phone hangs and lags badly... was thinking might be the keyboard i using or ce star causing problem. it oftens hang when i am texting..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
And what do you use as keyboard ? If your phone might hang when enter a contact name under outlook, it might be a Ezinput failure.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hello8985:
how to fix it? i am using Ezinput RC1
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
Regedit this :

[HKLM\System\Inbox\RecipientAutocomplete\MaxSuggestions]

Change Value from 4 to 1

And in the options of EzIput, untick

everything

.

If it doesn't give you an acceptable speed, give a try to Fingerkeyboard (after uninstalling every part of EzIput of course), so you will obtain a very fast experience, but without CompactQ...I felt back to FingerKeyb because of this uncomplete compatibility with 6.5, but it's still a very good peace of software fully compatible with KisS 20.4 WWE and .5 roms.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Major A:
If there's one, I've not found it so far. I will be patient and see if updated HTCScroll cabs and Ezinput versions rise to test, but the size of those apps make me sceptic about the interest (damn, 4Mb for a Keyb , or 1,3Mb for Youtube, it's pretty sick when google app is 50% smaller and does the same thing) of HTC apps on our device ; most of new cabs from Mega are very heavy, and dependencies will certainly not help the memory limited KS20 to become more efficient.
