The rapidshare link was posted by pdamouse.

I solved the 'stuck on asus boot screen' problem by using the 'expert' mode for the WWE NA official rom 6.1 that was posted on the ASUS website.

Are the GPS fixes and WiFi Network searching fixes included in the 29th Oct 2009 'SCHIST 21864 Widgets' rom? Or only the 'SCHIST 21864 Clean' has those fixes?

Thank you for your good work!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kalpeshmist:
only SCHIST 21864 is without GPS.. widgets and clean have the GPS functions. for SCHIST 21864, you have to download and install both the attachments at the bottom of the first post..

i tried a lot of fixing wifi in wm6.5.. now i conclude that, p527's wifi hardware or the driver(tiwlnapi.dll) is not compatible with wm6.5.. i dont know if this thing is resolved in any russian or chinese forum. but you run wifi in any wm6.5 by following the procedure given in F.A.Q.

couple questions for smart guys

Hi there!

As you are smart, and I am not, I have couple questions for you:

1. Writing every text message I want to use only my alphanumeric keypad WITHOUT xt9 (cause its avail. only in english and i am not a native english speaker). So, is it possible to set somehow by default, that everytime when I open text messaging it would be set to keypad? Or maybe our god Kalpeshmist can solve it? It would be great! :)

2. Before upgrading to 6.5 I missed the step with pimslpit.exe, so I am using GSM and EXTROM which i found in 23034 version and I dont have european ones. So maybe there is somehow a chance to get them?

3. How to use and where to find a slider lock in this version? Cause ones it poped, but now i cant find it. :D

And the last one, when I am doing somethin after a short pause, screen goes to sleep (lock), is there any possibility to wake it up without needing to lock it and unlock using a key on the right side?

Thanks in advance for patience! :)

Regards from Lithuania! (i bet u dont know where it is) ;)

Everything is described in first post, link to the download location for official roms too.

Select Eastern Europe, download, install it on your PC, browse to the installation folder "Program files\ASUS P527\" and extract files you need from *.pim file as described in first post ;)

Hi,

Thanks for sharing this good ROM !!

I installed SCHIST 21864 onto my P527 which is working good. However, there are some questions and minor problems.

1) TouchFlo quits sometimes (mostly when BSwitch is clicked )

2) The font size in Messenging tab can't be modified (via M2DC)-- in M2DC, I have selected a bigger font size, such as 14, then "apply". M2DC quits then TouchFlo reloaded. Font size, however, doesn't change.

3) Can't apply new theme. After I new theme installed --> restart --> touchFlo doesn't startup

4) How can / Is it necessary / Do I have to update TouchFlo to the latest version?

5) Storage memory is very limited in P527. What I can do is never installing M$ Marketplace and M$ MyPhone. Now there are around 7.5MB free space. Is it any way to remove more apps to increase the capacity? (Such as TravelLog, ASUS Launcher etc?)

Thanks

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kayw:
Hi,

There are some more problems (I am not sure should I say "bugs") on the 21864 ROM.

Internet sharing via Bluetooth to a Mac (OS 10.4 on iBook, and 10.6 on iMac -- I don't have a 10.5 machine) fails. Mac(s) do recognize P527, but not the bluetooth pan. Below screen cap shows the bluetooth device (P527 with WM6.1) on a Mac. You see "Personal area network".

(Please see attached file)

After loading 21864, "Personal area network" gone (not detectable) causing bluetooth pan doesn't work between P527 and Mac.

TouchFlo 2D seems incompatible with Opera Mobile beta 2 and Opera mini beta 2. Either these browser launched, TouchFlo quits in expect (I say "in expect" because it happens 8 of 10) I can tell by launching Opera, then click "ok" button on the left side, then Opera hidden and I will see "Tag here to lanuch TouchFlo"

After TouchFlo "re-launched", Opera browsers usually quit.

Hope these information can improve your work!!

Thanks.

Kay
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kalpeshmist:
hi Kay,

internet sharing has always been an issue between winmo and mac os x. even im trying to connect p527 int sharing to mac 10.5.6.. even syncmate doesnt work for me. i didn't try it with bluetooth yet. the internet sharing works quite good, better than windows, in linux ubuntu without any driver or software installed. i'll see if i can fix that bluetooth int sharing in next rom.

the second point what you noted isn't the mistake of the rom, but the irritating less program memory. touchflo2d takes some program memory. if you'll run heavy program with it, it's very certain that the device will stop some processes automatically. it's better u disable touchflo2d and run those browsers... try running skyfire with touchflo2d.

i do want to improve the program memory and the storage memory as most of the htc devices with same memory specs have increased storage and program memory. i m trying with it, really..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kayw:
Hi,

Thanks for reply.

I am ok with SyncMate (the latest version) with 21864. What I need to do is "Reset history" before the first time sync between WM6.5 and Mac.

I go to have a try on disabling TouchFlo + Opera.

Thanks

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tommy_vercetti:
Hi All,

Just tried this, clean one, definitely better than earlier one, just found some bugs, lol, you should have removed the Mode Switcher cos I don't think there's any need for it, but it does give some error when you launch is as the default buttons configuration is not set, overall a good build

Thanks
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kalpeshmist:
i extracted the bswitch(mode switcher) from the original rom.. its in both, in the clean as well as in the full version. there's even taskfacade in the full 21501.. for those dont like the taskfacade can switch to the bswitch.. sorry there's no asus backup till now....... make sure u all backup only from pim backup, the link is on the 2nd post.

thnx for trying the new build..

Better than the previous one... with titanium customizer n all...t9 works great.... i just couldnt get it workn on the previous build ...the unknown caller issue continues though... but works at times if u disable the switch off device option in the power options... would appreciate it if you upload the kitchen :) ... any plans for the next build?

For the first time it did switch on but since then its just not working bit confused there.. If tats done probably Im really not going to put the original ROM anymore :)...

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] kalpeshmist:
You can connect your phone to PC. Slide down the right lock, press and hold the left 'ok' button and make a soft reset. Now the phone enters the bootloader.. You can see 'Insert USB' on screen. If you want to flash the official ROM, make sure you select 'Expert Mode' on the P527FUU.exe. The 'Expert Mode' option can be found when you make a right click on the topbar of the P527FUU.exe windows.

Hi Kalpesh / All,

I tried updating my Asus P527 to WM6.5 build 21864 TouchFlo2d version.

I used Method 1 to update using USB and my PC. It seems I left the GSM option checked while flashing.

Now the problem I am getting is that the device starts and gets stuck in the startup black screen of Windows Mobile Version 6.5

Asus P527

SCHIST ROM 21864 TouchFlo2d

customized windows mobile 6.5

build 21864.5.0.81

I get a beep sound once and I waited for around 15-20 minutes but no other activity.

I tried soft-reset, but still no success.

I also tried Hard-reset using,

by pulling down the lock on the right-side of the device, then pressed and held the left-side ok button and the camera button and made a soft reset.

But the phone restarts and goes back to the Windows Mobile 6.5 startup screen.

I do not get a IPL: Insert USB cable screen so that i may re-flash it again.

My Asus P527 is not able to find a radio network (phone signal)

Hi All,

I need your urgent help for my ASUS P527. I am a big fan of SCHIST ROMs and while trying to one of the ROMs, I mis-flashed my device and now I am unable to catch radio signal. My PPC is now a stand alone PDA without phone feature and which is of use for me.

I have also shown it to Asus authorised service centre in Ahmedabad but as per the conversation, I carry more technical knowledge than those people and hence, this is the only forum to have a concrete and proven guidance for what to do. I am damn sure that there is no any hardware problem in my phone. It's only because I had mis-flashed EXTROM in to main OS sector.

At the same time, I have also followed following way which i think kalpeshmist has published somewhere online:

Extract Flash, GSM, and EXTROM from Asus P527 official Indian ROM (.PIM file). I got it by using P527 PIM Maker and then renamed EXTROM and GSM one to GSM and EXTROM to intentionaly remove all such records from my Asus P527 and then again flashed with correct and official these files. But again, it only shows the phone tab in communication manager but doesn't catch any signal at all.

I have already tried different SIM cards, but it didn't work.

While playing around few of the hard buttons, I got following on my screen but not able to select any option, I don't know why?

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

Main Menu

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

[1] Show Current Settings

[2] Select Boot Device

[3] Select Debug Device

[4] Network Settings

[5] NAND/NOR/MDOC Flash

[6] Modem Debug Settings

[7] Save Settings

[0] Exit and Continue

Selection:

It is the exact message on my screen but I am not able to select and enter in to any shown options.

The only problem with my Asus P527 is, I am not getting any network signal and this was only because few days back I mis-flashed it. But thenafter I have correctly flashed it again, but lost phone signal permanently.

Please help !!!
