I had a memory exception error the other day. as I monitor my taskman, the gwes.exe file starts at about 44xx kb. after a few hours of little activity it will increase to around 6000 kb. I didn't notice this until after I started using titanium. I have to reboot to recover that "lost" memory. I added the titanium theme and weather about the same time, but don't know if these are the culprits. what are ya'll seeing for your gwes.exe usage at startup?

@mrphil101 : yes, gwes.exe on wm6.5 is know for its memory leaks. It's a little bit better on newer releases (when I have some time, I'll make a new xCite based on 23xxx) but not much.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] e20140:
mrphil101 & spocky,

I may be wrong but it seems the memory leak is not as bad as you might think. I've launch all the programs I have and close them and after a day or so ram is going up and down at around 15 to 18MB. I tested previous if I left it alone for overnight, it recovers memory by itself. This is not what people has reported where memory just getting less and less.

If I have less than 28 MB free ram on the 6.1ROM, I cannot launch NFS G-senor versrion. When 6.5ROM, it runs as normal even @ 17mb free ram.

All in all, it just seems to me that WM6.5 keeps more memory in cache and not releasing it to help increase performance. Oh, Skyfire also won't release memory, not immediately anyway.

What's strange:

OEM task manager reported gwes.exe @ 4.05M while the addon task manager v3.1 reported gwes.exe @ 7676 kb. TM v3.1 also reported 4 instants of phone running that attached to cprog.exe, and I thought it was cprog.exe caused phone to freeze.

We are looking forward to a new xCite rom. Thanks in advance.

What are the chances of someone extracting the LG Incite's original keyboard for use on an Omnia? I really like it :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cleatis:
here one for the pros :)

i have excite3 with the default home screen, i have an email account setup with an exchange server. with a fresh soft reset i can scroll to any of the home screen items and then press the end button and the highlighter will move back to the time bar (following so far?) however, when i scroll to the email bar and access it then close back to the home screen, the end button will no longer move the highlighter...... now i also have garmin xt installed and sometimes when im navigating, the screen will dim and the top title bar will say messaging and the bottom bar will have the regular menu buttons as if i was in the messaging program???? my phone as of late hasnt been waking up regardless of wether i have the default lock screen activated or not.

i must mention that i had slide2unlock installed (new version) and opted to uninstall after my phone wouldnt wake up so maybe this was the culprit? oh well just did a hard reset!

mrphil101,

gwes.exe startup @ 1720kb (Taskmanager OEM) and @3633kb (TM v3.1)

I am running a modified version of WM7.0 Titanium theme and not the same as Ibrithyll's WM7 project. I try to install only what I need. By the way, I don't do text messaging MMS, wonder if that makes any difference. I still have SMS from A&T (*646# and that sort) and email.

Crap, I hit the reset by mistake. I will see if I can compile a list of thing that I did.

LG Incite bricked

I need help! I attempted to go back to the stock LG 10x ROM and I got a blue screen saying that lgusbtos.exe caused the error. It may be slightly different as it was there only for a few seconds.

The Emergency Download screen went away and now the phone won't turn on going into the ED screen, won't hard reset, nothing. Just a blank screen. When I hit the key combo to go into ED and plug in the USB cable, the pc does beep that it found the device and another attempt to load the stock ROM fails at the same percentage with the same file. What's up?

What do I need to do to get back to the ED screen and flash the stock ROM back? At this point, nothing on the phone works.

Suggestions?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mrphil101:
strange that the two are so different. @ startup using the same versions as you i show 1.37m and 4376kb. note that my oem taskmanager is lower than yours but the other is higher. Before it restarted for this, i had 3.11m & 6881kb on TM v3.1. I have two email accounts setup (hotmail & Live) and use both SMS/MMS, though I haven't actually used MMS in a while. I'm kinda leaning towards the TM v3.1 being more accurate due to the memory exception error i got.?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DanGeorges:
If you get a BSOD, don't panic!

It's possible your phone is still alive, but shows no actual signs of life (appears dead).

You need to make sure you are using Windows XP SP3, and have no other programs running.

Try these steps:

1. Remove battery from device and unplug the device from the computer

2. Reboot your computer and make sure it is in a stable state with NOTHING running except what started when you rebooted.

3. Wait 5 minutes

4. Replace the device's battery and power it on - DON'T PLUG IT INTO THE COMPUTER YET!

5. The device may start without a problem.

6. If not: Put the phone into emergency download mode - it is possible you won't see the "Emergency Download" screen

7. Flash the phone as before to the ROM of your choice. Keep going even if the phone seems "dead".

The Incite has proved difficult to brick - please don't be the first.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] witzman:
That worked! THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Now I need to find out what the heck caused the BSOD so that it doesn't happen again.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DanGeorges:
You're welcome.

This has happened to me 2 or 3 times - I don't know what causes it. I just know that you can recover from it.

I'm glad you didn't really brick the device!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GuardianUSMC:
I wish people would read the threads, this has been discussed so many times that by now people should know it second nature, but good job DanGeorges and glad you got it working witzman.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DanGeorges:
Just trying to help...:)

I completely agree: searching threads should ALWAYS be the first thing folks do when looking for help, but for new users, they may have little or no experience with forums, or don't know how to search.

Also, as new users start using the phone, what may seem second nature to flashing veterans like us is a complete mystery to others. Why, some people even ask how to get programs to the device!

Dan
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] witzman:
I did search the forum. The recommendations given didn't seem to work (not my normal phone as you can see from sig) and I figured I'd post. Sorry for the confusion as I am well aware of searching before posting :)

Thanks for not ripping me apart :)

On a side note, the flash back to xcite3 went well, again, but I had to flash from another computer that did have LG stock software and Hydros installed at the same time. Have you had issues with both being installed and causing the BSOD and the LG updating and getting "Server error"??
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GuardianUSMC:
We don't rip anyone apart, why would we do that? Its not helpful to anyone to do that. I was just simply stating a long standing frustration. As you can see, Dan helped you and I was happy that you got your solution. Everyone's gotta learn somewhere, we just prefer people try and get it from existing discussion to help mitigate the clutter, that's all. Good times. :cool:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] e20140:
Here are tweaks that I did:

Removed all items from the StartUp folder, yes, everything. (I move them to start menu tools folder and launch them as needed, well actually, just BTtrayCE is what I need.)

Deleted the entire key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\SoftwareDisable

Deleted gesture agent (Delay01 and Launch01) from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\LGE\Apps\InitApp\Launch

Removed Dummy key from HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Start

Set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin 0 (I like/need the original for various reasons, one being that I don't need to launch contact to see my contacts list.)

Set Proximity Sensor off.

definitely Set acel.sensor off if weather plugin or BT is enabled.

Set animation frame rate @ 5 on all lockscreen cpr files (default is 28) Let me know if you need them.

Delete non-working titanium reg-keys HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome

Update plugins at:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome:defaultXML

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome:ExtensibilityXML

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome:Plugins

I am still playing with the numbers below:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE:limit 16384

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE:limit0 74752

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS:CacheSize 16384

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS:dataCacheSize 1024

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mrphil101:
Thanks e, interesting with the remove from startup folder

have about half of the first listed tweaks done, so the more the merrier

don't know where all the .cpr files are at, but I will look, if you have time posting them would be most appreciated. will review the CHome stuff, I am new with that and still learning, this does help me to look in right direction. reading up on titanium, so that fits right in with that.

The last reg entries are above my current knowledge level. have adjusted the first glyph cache limit via advance config. had it a 64k but that was not helping and brought it down to 32k yesterday.

had adjusted the FATS cache size as you suggested and was v happy with that. I will try the others.

Thank you sir, may u b blessed for your kindness!

Could someone give me windiag.dll file？

HI, Could someone give me CT810 windiag.dll file ? I had tried the kitchen tools but found windiag.dll file with invalid size.( just have header). I have no device.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] e20140:
The attached files fixes the lock screen clock being cut off a bit and have a bit larger font size. I have the animation frame rate set at 4 or 5 fps. I might do a CAB after I tweak it to how I like it. Simply replace those files in the windows directory with the attached files.

Additionally, I tested the phone running activesync via bluetooth and the phone's memory went down to 12mb even after I turn them both off after use. The phone still runs ok, a bit slower and cannot launch Need for speed. No crash yet.

Edit: 7/29/09 The clock is still cut off when there is no reminder on the lockscreen.

Edit: 8/2/09 All fixed. I removed the old files and attached a new one.

Startup and Shutdown Animations

I would like to replace the At&T Shutdown Animation with a different gif.... If someone could tell me how to do that I would appreciate it greatly. I haven't been able to find this information anywhere. I would also like to know if the splash screens can only be .png's and what size the pics should be 400 x 400? And can we add a Startup animation somehow? I'm very curious... please let me know... Thanks!

P.S. Spocky ur super awesome. I'm going to test out the kitchen this weekend. Xcite 3 is a good base. Graci!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
If you want to change startup/shutdown animations, I think you only have to edit StartUpAni_DMDO_000.dll / ShutDownAni_DMDO_000.dll with a resource editor and replace the bmp resources with the ones you want. You also might have to sign the dll afterwards, not sure though.

To enable startupani, you'll also need to edit registry, adding this :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Init]

"Launch49"="StartUpAni_Delay.exe"

"Depend50"=hex:14,00, 1e,00, 31,00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Startup\1]

"Dll"="StartUpAni.dll"

As for splashscreen, I don't know if any other format works, but png 400x400 is just fine, so why changing it ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GuardianUSMC:
Spocky, I thought those files are "in ROM" files and they can't be edited unless you dump it, edit it and pack it back into the ROM.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
With TotalCommander, you should still be able to see them and copy them on your sdcard, then on your pc. Most of the files that are not in use can still be "overriden" by another copy in the same folder. The new copied file hides the rom one, and if you then erase it, the one from the rom will once again be used.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] e20140:
I find it easier to do it directly from a PC as to all the tweaks. All you need is activesync and CeRegEditor installed on your PC. 1st connect via activesync, 2nd - Unlock registry via CeRegEditor (one time deal). Then launch file explorer from activesync and you are good to go. Most rom files can be copied and overwritten as spocky said and be replaced with something else as long as the file name is the same. Note: make sure you enable show all hidden and system files from windows file explorer.

If the files are in use, I think you can create a CAB installer to install the files of your choice.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] JGirl4926:
Thanks bunches for that info.... it's a little over my head to be honest... but I will do more research before attempting to change something I might muck up. I was interested in creating a ROM specifically for ME... everything I like.. including custom startup and shutdown animations.... something kewl like Transformers or New Moon... I'ma dork what can I say... lol But that is pretty much it.... I don't like having 6.5 with a 6.1 logo.... it erks me. ^.^ So I'll figure out this whole programming thing eventually lol

Hey folks,

looking to do a clean install of WM6.5 on a friend's phone. Does anybody have a CAB or at least a list of registry tweaks they've done to their phones?

Thanks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DanGeorges:
Are you asking for a cab file that will update a phone to Windows Mobile 6.5?

This isn't possible...

If you're asking something else, please provide more detail.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] penars:
No, I meant if someone had a general-purpose registry tweak CAB up and running with all the necessary fixes (alarms, etc), or at least a list of those fixes.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DanGeorges:
There's no single cab that addresses every tweak, since different people have different preferences for tweaks.

There is a "performance tweak" cab (not sure what it does), a fix to the threaded messages cab, and others, but nothing that combines them all.

There are apps out there that help you tweak settings without futzing with the registry (e.g., Advanced Configuration Tool), but you would need to make the changes individually through the program.

Maybe someone has created one, but I haven't seen it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] e20140:

Updated ROMs

Spocky?

Now that you've released your kitchen, are you out of the Incite ROM making business? Seems like the guys on lg-incite.com are making theirs with more up-to-date releases, but frankly, I can't get them to flash and I never had a problem with yours. Not casting bad light on what they've done or anything, but I would love it and I am sure others would too, if you release a new xCite ROM with an up to date release of 6.5.

Being part of the Hydro's team, I can see why you might be a little... offended. But no need to talk to people like they are below you.

I feel that they are more stable and I can't wait to see a new and improved 6.5 from him. Just saying tho maybe you can CHILL with the whole WHAT, KNOW, BRICK, Etc. Just a reminder to stay friendly.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drewablank:
Seriously, chill. The version I flashed was straight from Spocky when I ALMOST bricked my phone. It was nothing to do with you guys. At the time, no one had come out and said that you can't run any of the flashers with Vista. I was using Vista. So of course the flasher would get 10% or so of the way through the process and quit out, leaving my phone with nothing on it and a swiftly draining battery. As we all (hopefully should) know, if you don't get that ROM flashed on there before the battery runs out, you're screwed. And it's not like you can take it back to AT&T and demand a new one - so it'd be (for all intensive purposes) bricked.

Sorry for not being A1 programmer, buddy! Looking forward to lots of non-buggy builds in the future.

Question directed at Spocky

Spocky,

I thought I would come to the expert for my question. Now that you have published the kitchen for the Incite and there are people using it to create ROMs of 6.1 and 6.5... what do you think the likely-hood that someone could cook an Android or LiMo ROM for the Incite. I see that folks have gotten Android onto the Omnia and I think we've all seen pictures of LG's LiMo phone that looks suspiciously like the Incite... do you think it can be done? I am no chef, but I am a developer and been working with hardware and software for 16 years... not applying for a job or anything, I am just saying that I am pretty comfortable experimenting... do you think it is worth it to go down this road or is it a dead end? Thanks for any insight!! You da'man!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
Yes, there are good chances that an Android rom works on the incite. A few monthes ago, I tried android ported to the vogue on my ks20 and it worked (well, lots of things didn't work, but the hardware was a little bit different too...). New versions don't work at all. I tried to cross compile a version specifically for the ks20 but I abandoned after a few tests, as it required to much energy/time (and I found it was easier to buy a Htc Magic ;) ).

Anyways, if you want to do this, I think it can be done (and the lg service manual will be very helpful).
