Thanks for that tip. I deleted the key so I will now go back and test some more paths. It may be that there is more than one key that needs changed to make this happen. It would be nice though to have all media and documents go directly to the Storage Card. That way you are not constantly moving files from the internal to external memory.

Crashed Again

PROBLEM:

I just wanted to inform prospective flashers that even with the xCite 2b Rom and the Hydros Flasher, it caused my Win XP SP2 to go all Blue Screen on me and Crash mid-flash. This is the second time it's nearly bricked my phone even since the move from the self installing flasher to the .dz file and Hydros flasher.

SOLUTION:

Luckily, I found out you can bring the phone back to life, even if it is non responsive (Thank you, Guardian). You put it into emergency download mode, even if the screen isn't working, the button combination will activate it, and you try to use the V10i_00.exe factory upgrade to reflash it. It'll do some work on the phone and then tell you to disconnect it and try again. At which point it started up with all my personal files intact.

It always crashes my computer at around 14%
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] PhoneTamer:
No, i never use the acceleromiter. I have no need for it. It's actually a pain to enable it as when i'm laying in bed and trying to do something with the phone on its side it flips. It'll either freeze every few hours, or slow down to the point of not being able to use it for 5 or 10 minutes.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nicknowsky:
i totally understand ur frustration, but HYDROS isnt the actual FLASHING tool all it does is copy the new ROM image file (.dz) that Spocky created to the APPLICATION_DATA folder, renames it and enables the OLD LG Flashing tool to kick in a FLASH ur phone. When people are having issues, its the computer they are using, and mainly the DRIVERS are an issue. I have been doing some troubleshooting with HYDROS, and the NEW HYDROS SYNC CENTER
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spocky12:
Sorry, didn't have time to finish the lg kitchen. I'll try to have it finished and uploaded in the next few days (I'd say between tomorrow and wednesday).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ewok2030:
Thanks for the explanation, but I successfully flashed my phone to the new LG rom, V10i. It is just crashing when I try to flash spocky's rom. I wonder how they differ, because I would guess that is the issue.

Think I'd have more success on a fresh install of Windows XP SP2?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nicknowsky:
\No no no, make sure u use SP3, and have the latest possible CHIPSET drivers for your computer, if ur using INTEL they just released a new chipset driver, that works good have minimal programs running in the background and get the latest HYDROS from the LG-INCITE forum
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nicknowsky:
DUDE , ur the man, cant wait!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ewok2030:
Ahhh, maybe SP3 is where I am failing
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nicknowsky:
try that, it should make tyhe difference, and updated chipset drivers on ur system, either Nvidia SiS Intel whatever make sure the its the newest
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Alannon:
Once I went and got the .net 4 and installed the previous version it worked fine for me. The latest version of the hydros installer doesn't check to see if you are using .net 4.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] R3D 3L33T:
Hey peeps,

so I just decided that the 2b rom was too sluggish for me.. (2a is really fast! )

but rather than go to the 2a rom, I decided on 3! I usually do the rom.dz swap, and haven't run into any problems with it (xp sp2, same usb driver each time... about 7 flashes it total)

but today when I started updating, it got to around 18% and then my laptop blue screened!!! :eek:

it only popped up for a sec, but I saw the lg usb driver mentioned in there... :(

now my phone doesn't try to power on at all... (plugged in or otherwise)

any tips? it is a total brick? :(

thanks!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GuardianUSMC:
Relax, its not a brick yet.

1. Restart your PC and try to avoid any devices connected to it that are USB drawing too much power (such as external drives, printers and etc)

2. Connect the PC end of the USB cable

3. Take the battery out of the phone

4. Put it back in 30 seconds later

5. Press and hold : left volume down, right lock button and plug in the device side of the USB

6. You won't see the emergency download message but it WILL be in that mode and you will see the green LED on the top

7. Proceed with the flash as usual and you will be fine.

good luck.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] R3D 3L33T:
Yay!!

I now have the "green light!" lol

I am using a different computer now... :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] GuardianUSMC:
Good, glad you got it working, told you its fine.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nicknowsky:
dude remember these phones WONT brick, its near impossible to brick them, remember to always STAY in EMERGENCY DOWNLOAD mode always, even if your computer resets or any kind of faliure, just keep ur INCITE plugged in and in FLASH mode

Listen to GuardianUSMC he right on with the instructions, and you NEED SP3, I dont understand how people havent updated to SP3 already, Windows Update should of added it already, Service Pack 3 is a MUST!!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] R3D 3L33T:
Good to know :)

also, I had a typo, I do have SP3 but in my rush, I got a 2 in there lol.

Thanks again!

My LG Incite running Spocky's 6.5 ROM suddenly started displaying "Home Service" on the Today screen instead of the carrier name. How do I get it to once again display the carrier name instead of Home Service. I find the Home Service display to be very annoying.

Hey Spocky. I've really been enjoying using xCite 2b on my Incite.

also....has anybody tried modifying the mbn files to change the bootscreen of wm6.1 to 6.5 yet? i meant the first green screen.

also...(doubt that anybody wil care....) im now makin a hydros rom for me (only cuz i am really bored)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] DanGeorges:
Not in my experience. It freezes quite a bit - mostly when browsing or during other processor-intensive operations.

I've disabled it, and I haven't really missed it.

If only I had a portrait full keyboard that worked and didn't freeze the device...

Try Finger Keyboard: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=174073&d=1239186309

Freeware and it shows a full keyboard in portrait. Available in about 30 different languages. I use it over the XT9 because it is smaller but not too small in landscape mode on 2b.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] shinobi26:
this is really awesome what spocky and everyone is doing. the incite isn't a phenomenal phone, but the community is actually coming together for it :D

I just have one question. is the xcite3 rom the final release?:confused: or are we to be expecting a full on stable version(possibly with accelerometer function). sorry i don't have time to read every thread and i've been avidly researching all kinds of different roms and UIs and stuff for the Incite lately that my brain is

melting

because the Incite is currently the 'coolest' phone I've ever owned. currently I'm testing out spb ms3 and point ui on the original wm6.1 that came with the phone(kinda scared to mess around with the rom until there is a guaranteed or at least close to stable version, haven't even updated to the official lg rom). i love the point ui community, but spb ms3 works very well. i would love to try out this wm6.5 sometime.

i guess another question i have is how close is the xcite3 rom to a kinetic 'feel' on the touch screen? i mean, i have done all sorts of reg tweaks and hacks for the accelsensor and the screen and also messed around with Gestures, making touching it more enjoyable, but still there is that amount of pressure needed(i know it will most likely always be that way).

i have more questions to make this a much longer post than needed.. is updating to the official lg rom completely useless if i try this wm6.5?, and also can i flash to wm6.5 if i updated to the official lg rom?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ewok2030:
I have 3.5 installed, maybe there is another problem I have.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] chad.pflughaupt:
I may be the only one interested in this, but if anyone could get a LiMo ROM for the LG Atos-L (assuming it has the same hardware as the Incite, I mean, heck, they look exactly the same) I think it would be fun to play with.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] penars:
Is that phone even out yet? Co-sign on this, would definitely be a fun thing to play around with.

LG incite xCite 6.5 rom spooky

Hey dude thanks! Spooky, you are a scientist bro. I just bought the LG incite, I thought it sucked till I saw what a mad-scientist spooky was with ROMs. Well I donated to you buddy, hopefully it helped with those crazy nights with out sleep. Quick thing spooky, can I run touchflo on this cooked ROM bro? If anyone knows anything, please reply. Also… thanks to everyone that helped create this happen.

PS... does anyone know if there is a Gsensor for the LG incite?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Alannon:
Accelerometer side note

As a side note, I have seen all this chatter about the accelerometer in 6.5 causing freezing, on my phone I have noted that it is the rotation of the screen causing the freezing not the use of the accelerometer. (I have set a button to rotate the screen, and it froze the phone more often than not.) Now there is a catch 22 to using the accelerometer as there is no way to disable the screen rotation, and when the accelerometer is enabled it automatically rotates. This makes me think it may be a desktop visual driver rather than an accelerometer driver issue. Switching from landscape to portrait mode screws with it..... anyhow that's my 2 cents.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Trv06kviper:
I would have to agree with you because certain things are disabled when the screen is rotated, like cleartype. Think the main reason is because LG still hasn't given people access to the Accellerometer to use the correct coding to address such issues! ><
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mrphil101:
yep, i have accelrometer disabled and was using the camera button, but it would still freeze the screen. I would hold down shutoff button until I heard the beep, then press where yes should/would be, and the phone shuts off. That stinks, cause i liked being able to use landscape for internet.

How bout this new leaked version on the incite http://www.wmexperts.com/something-new-brewing-winmo-65
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] chad.pflughaupt:
Most of that build is pretty hideous.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nicknowsky:
where does that say anything about being a new INCITE build, and the latest build thats out in the open is 23007 I believe. for those of you that want a newer wm6.5 build we are working on a much newer build either 23003 or 23004, it will be part of our Team HYDROS Mobile ROm collection, we released a wm6.1 ROM today as a test ROM!!

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] PhoneTamer:
I think he may have been asking if we could get that build on the Incite, not saying that it was an Incite build. :rolleyes:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] e20140:
From my experience, it freezes when you rotate screen while app(s) is running, but of course that's hard to do sometimes. Otherwise, it seems ok and less chance of freezing if you use a button. I wonder if we should/can increase the grahpic memory allocation?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] e20140:
Alarm issue

Alarm issue: I bet most of you have given up.

How to make alarm works - tested with XP only:

Plug phone in via USB to a computer. Make sure activesync is running. Launch CeRegeditor. Make the connect. Finally, hit soft reset from CeRegeditor, and before the screen is complete off, unplug the usb cable. The phone will reset and now the alarm works and screen will wake up.

Alarm will continue to work even if you reset, poweroff, or charge it via a AC traveler. Alarm will stop working as soon as you plug it into a computer. It might also stop working after installing a certain software. Simply repeat the above steps to bring to alarm back to life.

I tried all other lockscreen.dll and registry tweaks, nothing works. The above also explain why some, including myself, thought some of the tweaks works sometime.

Registry difference:

Plug in to computer -

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Hardware:Cradled 1

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Shell\Notifications\Active

On battery or AC plug in (not to a computer) -

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Hardware:Cradled 0

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Shell

This part may or may not remove itself after reset (Notifications\Active)

With the phone on battery, I've try setting the registry as it were plug in and hit reset, but that does not activate the alarm.

spocky, or anyone, has any idea? Do anyone know what the registry changes to when the phone is on suspend mode?

P.S. I don't have memory or lockscreen not waking up issue like others. I run it lean and clean. oh, Spocky, the shutdown.exe you made works just fine.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] funguy524:
This is copied from http://www.lg-incite.com/lg-incite-tutorials/incite-rom-update-to-v10i!/ posted by teoami

The v10i Rom is almost identical (if it's not) to the stock rom

**~NOTE: Currently, this is for Windows XP ONLY! Vista users please be patient.~**

Ok, so there was a thread on here about the beta software from LG that lets you update your phone. Well, as it is, the software has some issues that I have found a way around.

You will need three things.

1. Download the beta software from LG here: http://www.lge.com/us/mobile-phones/beta-program.jsp

2. Download the usb modem driver here: http://www.mediafire.com/?zzvmalynmmm (thank you spocky for the upload)

2. Download V10I_00.exe: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?nf3mzyu32tw

The file below is the official ROM update from LG. It will update the ROM version, the bootloader, and the modem firmware. It is, however, the same build number of WinMo 6.1.

Install the update software to your PC like normal.

Install the usb modem driver.

Backup anything important becuase this will wipe your phone.

Plug the usb cable into the PC.

Power off your phone and enter Emergency Download mode by holding down [Vol Down + Lock] and insert the usb cable.

Double-Click the file V10I_00.exe and it will self-extract. Once it is done, it will open the update utility.

Click "update" and it will take care of the rest.

Your phone will restart and will go straight to charging since it is plugged in. (the Incite has always done this)

Just hit the power button and it will continue booting.

You are done!

Just go through the normal Windows Setup hooplah and then restore your personal data.

I have not noticed anything spectacular the update. It does seem faster, but it could just be because it was wiped clean. So this is completely up to you if you want to do this or not. It could be good as a little practice flashing your phone before cooked ROMs start popping up.

CAUTION: any time you flash your phone, you run the risk of bricking your phone. I will not be liable.

Thank you for the great Rom. I am loving all the free space and memory. I do have one question though: after installing SPB Home I could no longer scroll using my finger and once again I must use the scroll bar and so I was wondering if there is something in registry I can change to get it back? Thanks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] chad.pflughaupt:
Which version of SPB are you using? If it's version 3 (the newest one, and most likely the one you have), I would try reinstalling it, as I recently tried SPB Home and had no problems.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] funguy524:
I'm not sure if it is the type of screen LG Uses or what but I have to push down on the screen somewhere and then flick/move it the direction I want.

Don't have the problem with my wizard, kaiser or ipaq 910c they all glide effortlessly which really suprises me since this LG is supposed to be geared as "Touch" only where the others all have keyboards, dpads and such to help navigate Windows Mobile
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] IchiKafka:
Yes it is the SPB Home 3.0. I can use the scrolling function within SPB Home perfectly fine although I can no longer scroll by flicking in explorer etc.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] netw3rkd:
You actually don't need to disable gestures, just get into the gestures control panel settings, choose the tab for 'excluded programs' or something to that effect, and check off the check box's for any prog's that have scrolling built in, like spb shell, and s2u2. Hope this helps. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] IchiKafka:
Gestures is off and has been off.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] IchiKafka:
It is not Mobile Shell which is not working properly, Mobile Shell works perfectly fine: scrolling using flicking and everything else. Although, prior to installing Mobile Shell I was able to scroll using flicking in explorer, contacts, and other areas with this Rom although now I no longer can.

Spocky,

I posted this up there somewhere, but I figure I'll ask you (in)directly. I had issues of freezing with the newer build, but not in the older build. The only main difference I've seen was that the menus on the newer build were bigger. Was this just a mistake on my part? Or were the menus actually bigger? If so, why not on the older build? And is there any easy fix to make them bigger?

I have the accelerometer disabled and use the camera button to change orientation. It still freezes the screen. I think this has happened on the today screen also. as stated in earlier post, I can use button to power off phone, can't see the shutdown popup window display, but i tap where it should be and the phone will shut off. I have done this with the phone sitting on the table and not moving at all, and it will freeze. It doesn't seem to be the "sensor" or movement of the phone triggering the problem.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dustinmcd:
Interesting. I'll try this out tonight. I've just been leaving my phone plugged in at night which seemed to bypass the alarm problem. It might be possible to write a script that does whatever this procedure is doing and package it in a cab. Good work and thanks for your perseverance.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Amerision:
One thing I've noticed.

WinMo 6.5 connects perfectly to my Vista computer everytime. 6.1 is always spitting out errors (USB device not recognized, etc).

What changed? Is it possible to mirror these changes in 6.1? I like 6.5, but it's still too unstable for me to use.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] e20140:
Would you perhaps have TitaniumWeather plug-in installed? It seems to increase the chance of freezing.

You might try this:

Registry: HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS

Key: CacheSize (dWord)

Change the default value to 16384.

Also try to remove programs that you don't need from launch. Right now, I have my acele. sensor on and testing it with varies setting. Will report back when I find an acceptable setting to use.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mrphil101:
Thanks e, I'll give it a try. yes titanium weather is installed. Only for a couple of weeks, & i believe this was occurring b4, i hardly even try any longer. hoping fix will be found in one of the new roms.

BTW, you do the lean registry thing where you have deleted\mod'd unnecessary items. Do you by chance have them documented?

Hey Guys!

so my incite has been running 6.5 for the last couple weeks without any big issues. last night I was listening to some music with my headphones (not bluetooth), and ever since then, if anyone calls me, or if I try to call anyone, the call will go through but I don't hear anyone on the other end, or it ringing. I tried pulling the battery for a couple minutes, and I would really rather not do a hard-reset :(

anyone else ever incountered this before?

THANKS!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mrphil101:
sounds like the connector for headphones is not releasing after plug removed. try pushing the plug in & out a few times. if that doesn't work try something like a paper clip. careful to push in only as far as plug would go in. & yes, this doesn't seem t be uncommon.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mrphil101:
wow, that seems to work on the accel. good. not only that, but the screen response is greatly enhanced. I'll definately add this to my list of reg hacks.
