[General Questions and Answers] DeathJester:
How does Fennec fit into all of this?
[General Questions and Answers] Hannigan174:
Opera

For me Skyfire is useless. Opera has flash support (a little confusing to make it so sometimes), Opera 9.7 has Turbo (Web compression), It is smoother looking.

Also Skyfire looks terrible on anything higher than qvga/wqvga because of how pages are pre-rendered. Skyfire is also even more of a memory hog than Opera.

If you want something like skyfire, but don't care about flash (youtube apps work better anyway) try opera mini. Read up on it, though, because it is Java based.

I realize everyone has different tastes, but for me the choice is very clear, Opera.

BTW: Fennec alpha is not ready for primetime. Skip it until there is a stable build. Kills battery, super slow, looks/feels mediocre.

First Not sure if this goes here or in Apps since it has to do with the browser. Well I'm running chrome on destop any way of sync'ing those bookmarks to the "chrome browser" on the G1? I know with Opera mini you can any way on Chrome? Thanks
[G1 General] ggolemg:
possibly...

sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.browser/databases/browser.db "SELECT * FROM bookmarks;"

http://mgmblog.com/2009/02/06/export-an-android-sqlite-db-to-an-xml-file-on-the-sd-card/

then from chrome, import the newly created xml file

this method will require a good bit of work on your part

Okay I have searched and found some good info on getting custom tones for notifications and such. However I would like to know if theres a way to have my email notification tone seperate from all the rest of the notifications. I know using ringo pro I can have my text msg notification tone seperate. But I do not like it when I hook my phone to my computer it gives me the same tone as my email one. I currently have it set to the "you've got mail" and its annoying to hear it with updates, hooking to computer, and such. If this has already been answered please supply me with a link and I apologize for not looking harder.

Guys are coming up with there on themes for the touch flo, so was looking for a app to create my own theme.

Can someone send me in the right direction?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Themes and Apps] stylez:
Fist thing to do is unzip a theme and look @ whats inside it's images, so you can mix and match other themes bare in mind that the .xml may be different so if mixing you need to keep same or learn .xml "more info via search"

Then you can use Photoshop\GIMP to edit parts of the theme and dump it all in the .zip.

Now you have a theme :)

Hi,

just upgraded to wm6.5 using your great tutorial, and used one of the ROM files in there (21198.7Z)

After succesful upgrade, I get a messgae that this copy will expire in 30 days :(:confused:.

Do you know anything about that? Is there anything I can do to remove this time limit thing?

If I'll need to flash another ROM of wm6.5 (because of this trial limit, or just to try another ROM), do I follow the regular steps, starting from "put your device in Bootloader mode", or should I downgrade again completely to windows 2003SE?

Any help to this confused soul will be appreciated... :confused:
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
yes, the expiration date of the 21198 is known. what you need to do is upgrade to 21202.

the procedure is the standard one, bootloader, flashing, hard reset, extrom

want to upgrade but unsure seeing others problems

Hi, new to flashing PDA's but literate with pc's.

I have read a number of times through the instructions to upgrade BA (xda iis) from wm2003se to wm6.5.

Firstly, I have downloaded the upgrade 21198 but now I see that this has an expiration. You advise above to use a different file but I can't find this revision on the xda site. Can you advise?

Also, the main reason I haven't progressed any further is unsure of steps in relation to the placement of the files. As I said, I have read the instructions but still not quite sure what to do.

I have downloaded the file 21198 (although this may change prior to doing an upgrade) but where do I put this? On the SD card or on my PC?

Do I need to unrar it first or leave as is?

When I run maupgrade_noid, is this run from the PC or from the SD Card?

In step 5, it states "quickly press buttons prior to version appearing" what happens if the version appears first and if it does, what steps do you need to go back to to rectify?

Sorry for so many questions, but I don't want to stuff my device or spend hours trying to return to a functional wm2003se system.

Your assistance is appreciated. (I am very much a step by step person when it comes to doing these things. Once understood, no problem from then on)

Thanks,
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
yes, you should not try the 21198 anymore, download the 21202 here: it is the release r6.1 (yes, it is wm6.5, not 6.1).

then make sure to read this and follow all the wizard's steps: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardMain

that wizard also explains, how to resize the storage, which needs to be done BEFORE you flash another rom.

then, to go to your further questions, the file you downloaded needs to be extracted on your pc and it contains a rom file named nk.nbf, a few other files, and very important: a MAupgradeut_noID file, which you need to run to flash the device (on the pc, of course).

you couldn't start anything on your device anyway, because prior to that, you put the device into bootloader mode, which means it is not really running, it means it opens a soft-port to accept the rom, being transfered.

about the hard reset: you can also press the four buttons at once, to make sure, to access the menu, mentioned in the wiki. if you don't make it to press the 2 buttons in time, the device will boot, but not work properly, so you can give it a try again, no need to worry to miss the window.

if still there is something left, you didn't get, i can explain further. just re-post
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] chkto1000:
Thanks Chef Tony, I did it! However, device is slow...

Thanks for the help.

Now, I have a question: I am not sure whether it is my device or it is just the normal.

I notice that the time it takes for the machine to react (for example, when opening an app, or more precisely simply clicking on an icon) is somewhat slow - let's say there is a delay of 2-3 seconds between clicking and untill the device reacts. Is that the way it should be (I am really a newbie to this things, so I do not have any prev experience)?

Another thing: I tried to install some Java games (which I guess were meant for smart phones) and installed succesfully, but trying to open them, they either stuck, or not working (showing a grey screen, and that's it). Is that means that they are not compatible with Blueangel with this win6.5 OS, or is the device too weak, or what?

Thanks for all the help!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
actually, i gotta admit, i don't know about those 2 things. it's been a while since i first flashed a wm6 os, so i don't have a direct coparison between speeds, i know that the 21202 is the fastest rom i had on my device so far, which probably means, when i first upgraded i stepped on the brake, and now, from rom to rom, it's getting a little faster again. as it is not the native os it can never be as fast as in wm2003. still, i can hardly tell from here, whether your device's speed is ok.

you can try different things:

- if you use tcpmp for video playback and maybe have tested it before, run a benchmark and see how much speed your device actually has in rendering a video.

- you can use the chome and flip it a little and try that on how fluent it runs

- if it is just when starting programs, make sure you performed a hard reset after upgrading (reset+power+camera+record->YES, NO, NO->NO, YES, YES)

- you can also make sure that, if you have external programs installed, they are on the device instead of the sd card

- if some of them are on the sd card, defrag it using pocket mechanic or your pc's card reader

if nothing of that fits, either your device is rather slow and maybe you should try xcpuscalar to overclock it, or you are just not used to cooked roms' speed yet ;)

about java: the java support the device has, comes from an addon program to be found in the extrom folder, called JBED....cab. since you apparently installed the extrom that came with the rom, the chef of the rom, xplode, picked the right version to run with. what you can do is:

- copy that cab file to the device again and re-install it

- try and download another version of the file somewhere

- whereever you got the java programs, look there about the compatibility, maybe get other versions

i know that is vague but i have not used java since wm2003, i don't even have jbed installed, everything that i can't get as a cab, as a real windows mobile program, i don't install in the first place. most java apps out there are games and i realized in wm2003 that they tend to work like they want. sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. it is very strange, which i quit that topic. maybe someone here has mor experience when it comes to that.

P.S. if you want to check the speed again and have access to a camera, you can make a video of the device in action and post a link here. i will surely have a look and while speed might be subjective, then we know for sure.

P.S.2 i know, just having the device upgraded and the first few steps are done, the problems show up can be frustrating, but give it a chance, you'll love it

WM 6.5 Upgrade

Thanks Chef_Tony for your response.

And yep, I do have another question.

Firstly though, I have all the necessary files downloaded, including the memory resizer etc. Just waiting on a go.

The reason for my question of the SD Card is due to the following step in the upgrade section:

_____________________________________

6.(if removed earlier) Put back your SD Card before you do the setup. This way the installation from the SD will continue after you have done the setup

_____________________________________

I didn't, and still don't understand what this step does. What installation continues from the SD Card?

One more question, If I stuff it or am not happy with WM 6.5, to go back to WM2003se, do I only have to reflash using the wm2003se ROM? or are there other steps involved due to the changes made to the BA?

Thanks,

Giles.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Chef_Tony:
before you start the actual upgrade, so, before you click maupgradeut_noid.exe you are supposed to take out the sd card, i really can't explain, how an sd card in the device would influence the upgrade process but more importantly is the above mentioned putting the card back in.

to explain that: if you ever hard resetted your device in wm2003 you will have realized that after you align the screen and set the clock there are still programs that install afterwards automatically. those programs and customizations, e.g. a wallpaper, a dialer skin, some other programs, are not part of the rom but are cabs, stored in the extrom. the extrom is the storage space that you resize and format in the first steps, meaning your future wm6.5 is lacking those extra programs. since wm6.5 is larger in installation size, programs like the internet explorer or office are taken out and stored in the new extrom. you probably downloaded an extrom.zip file. before coming to that mentioned step 6 of yours, you are supposed to extract that archive and put the folder called extrom on the sd card. and putting that in at that given moment, together with the hard reset, it causes the same effect as in wm2003, that after the first start with the align screen and set clock, there are programs installing. after that you can delete the folder from the sd card, as there are no cabs in that folder anymore anyway.

about your other question: your shipped rom probably consists of one single exe file. you can't re-flash using that file that easy. it is a self-extracting pack that you'd have to extract first and start the downgrade with the maupgradeut_noid again, because you'd get a country id error if you wouldn't, since you bypass the country id by upgrading and your device is WWE then.

another thing is the storage space, meaning you need to resize the storage to gain space for the extrom again. basicly you revert the steps you go to with the upgrade. detailed instructions can be found here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Downgrade_WM5

but i think you wouldn't wanna go back to wm2003, it might be fast, but you hardly get any programs for it these days and with the great UI and finger friendlyness of wm6.5 you will be satisfied.

i hope that although my explanation was long (and not clearly thought through in before ;)) you got my point: sd card is for the extrom, for going back to wm2003, visit the link i posted.

Technical Question - still understanding

Ok Chef-Tony, I am understanding more and more, but still a little more to go before you earn your donation. (if you can get my learnin up to speed).

I understand what you have said so far.

I assume the merge process merges the ExtRom, Rom and storage (All ROM) together, albeit setting the Extrom space to 128 kb and the remaining 95MB to storage? Leaving Storage 95MB, Extrom 128kb and RAM 128MB.

And secondly, you mention downloading an Extrom.zip file with the extra progs needed. I haven't downloaded this file and can't see where it is downloaded from. I have downloaded the unlocker and the re-part files/apps and also the 21202.7z Rom upgrade. The instructions for the Extrom say to access it by doing an unhide and then an unlock but nothing to say copy any files to your SD card.

I have also checked the 21202.7z file contents but no extrom.zip contained. Can I assume that the necessary files are part of the ROM upgrade itself and no extra files need to be copied to SD Card prior to upgrade?

Come on now, stop laughing at me, just because half a milion others have already done this successfully doesn't make me stupid!

Almost there,

Giles.

Excellent assistance on Upgarade

Chef_Tony, what can I say.

I should apologise, I saw the EXTROM link when I first downloaded the 21202 ROM but at the time I didn't understand what that was for and reading back through the instructions I didn't pick up on its importance. I am glad we had this discussion or I would have been asking questions and been wishing I never tried the upgrade. Now I feel more confident that I have what I need to do the upgrade successfully.

I did understand your ealier explanation of the prog install using the EXTROM process but your additional info in your last response has really given me a good understanding. cfg.txt file is bit like a batch file to some degree.

I really have appreciated your assistance in this and I hope that all goes well when I upgrade, which won't be for a week as I am travelling and need it for TomTom. So don't want any problems prior to going away.

Thanks,
