just tested. like stated before, the phone only stayed on bootlogo. the hard work is definitly appreciated ;)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] keff:
I thank you for trying - without the actual device the development would be hard, I guess, thank for your work!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] .fenrir:
Here's my beta 23563 for people to try out. I just changed a thing or two in between two of my exams (great idea, I know) and rebuilt it so hopefully the battery will last better than the one I had been testing a week or two ago.

Warning: Your phone will freeze when you plug in the USB cable while the phone is on with this ROM.

I'm looking into this, but if you use the USB cable often, don't flash this rom. I probably deleted a dll somewhere by accident so I'm gonna have to find some time to cross-reference it with the original ROM. Everything else should be working properly. You can flash back to trashcan's rom if you don't like it or come across any really bad problems.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZJFQJGZ0 Newer ROM in my sig.

Some things to note:

-Finger Mouse is on 4 way navigation by default.

-GPS Port is on COM1 by default.

-Mouse artifacts still there, forgot to put in the mortscript that works around it.

That's all I can think of for now.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TeNsTrKe15:
i flashed your rom to my Epix and as of right now it is pretty stable. the mouse thing is still going on but that has been normal since the first rom. i really like the bootlogo lol :p. internet explorer is a bit laggy but thats expected on most roms. for the most part, im liking it.

what i do not like, and this goes with all wm6.5 roms i've tried, when i try to put on a theme, the start button, on the device not the touch screen start button, loses functionality after a couple times of pressing it. you can still use the touch start menu. and text messages and email freeze so you cant open them or create new ones, ending in a hard reset or reflash.

i appreciate all work being done to improve these wm6.5 roms :)!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] tangsta35:
Great job fenrir!

I updated to 28008 but stepped back down because I really liked using the on screen mouse. Unfortunately, I am a heavy USB user and use my phone for mp3's, transferring cabs, and even .mkv movies.

Any indication as to when you will release another build with the fixed usb problem and fixed mouse artifacts?

Keep up the good work!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] .fenrir:
Glad to have someone like you trying out the ROM and finding errors with it.

I'm aiming for a lite ROM, so it has a bit more free RAM, this way people can customize as they choose fit. I'm glad the graphics are smooth, I was going to compress them slightly to see how things go, but since things are already smooth this is probably unnecessary.

I've gotten rid of the "Connect via IR" in ActiveSync, that was my mistake I accidentally put in IR support when our phones don't even have it. I'll look into the Disconnect thing and see what I can do about it. Strange it came up after you rebooted. I'm also starting to believe the USB freezing the phone may be attributed to ActiveSync. After putting in the files that were on your list which were only Modem Link and BT Dial Up Networking (and WM Widgets and Windows Live but I doubt these are related), the USB still froze the phone. I tried starting from scratch as well with all the AT&T crap in the phone assuming perhaps some of the AT&T crap had the USB drivers, seems that wasn't the case either. Its probably the 23563 build I have is faulty or the ActiveSync just doesn't like this build.

Well I've drastically improved the normal battery drain on the phone, since on my tests with the ROM it hardly lasted a full day, that problem should be gone now. I've cooked in the GPS work around, didn't think of that earlier since my phone's a pre-ID1.

I haven't overclocked this ROM, to be honest since it is my first time cooking a ROM, I don't even know how to. Any buttons in specific and/or if in any specific programs?

On a side note, since the ROM's not perfect, but stable enough for usage I'll probably make a separate thread for my ROM later today. I'll post up the newer version of the ROM in the new thread. Hopefully it solves some things.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] heineken78:
Hi Keff.

those files have nothing to do with problem, thats just extra packages that MS provides that trashcan included into rom, u can download those programs later without needing them to run in rom.

Hi Fenrir,

You will need Irda package for correct working of bluetooth incoming transfers, crap with activesync is because of registry collecting order by old builder in your kitchen. possibly is only way to make order is to change names of dsm and registry of starting symbobs by alphabet, so package oem drivers must be the last during buildos.

Use only packages and all I gave you in my SYS, rest is unnecessary. you can delete gpsid.dll module from package but not the registry of package, cos is replaces later by oem driver. Delete folders ATT, SETTINGS and leave only drivers, oem apps, oem dpi, lang, bluetooth, camera, wifi. Try to cook w\o em.Also make correction of initflashes.dat that initialises files to storage memory and folders during coldboot, there is trashcan as usual.

Cheerz.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] keff:
Sorry - by smooth I meant the scrolling (as in frames per second - scrolling in older roms was more 'choppy').

That could have been some one-time problem, I just checked, and 'disconnect' button now appears always during AS bluetooth connection...

Good luck here - sorry, I have no idea about driver architecture of WM - maybe heineken78 could know where to look?

Great to hear - I too noticed that even with GPS fixed, I lost most of a charge in about 8 hours, also the phone was warmer than usual.

OK, thanks for explaining - it was in a pretty random places (for example about 2 horizontal lines of color noise in selector on homescreen, or one line in a graphics for buttons - exactly how it looks when you overclock PC too much, the memory then becomes corrupted). But it was when I was testing internet connection and GPS, so it could be because of heat (phone was really warm at that moment).

Thank you, if you have fixed the battery drain problem, I'd be happy to upgrade as soon as possible, this is problem #1 for me :).

Thanks for taking rom development after trashcan :))

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] porkenhimer:
i780 6.5 kitchen. I don't think it has a name but its exactly like the i780 6.1 kitchen. What kitchen r u using?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] heineken78:
You mentioned about differences, so kitchens are not the same, for Epix you can use omnia kitchen, but not from i780, those have compeltely different rom structure.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] porkenhimer:
if u read the post again u l'll c that i said i am tryin to cook an i780 rom with an i780 kitchen.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] .fenrir:
Omnia kitchen. Is it a visual kitchen? I don't know much about the i780 kitchens but there buildOS bat script (assuming your kitchen's similar to the one I'm currently using) should automatically make the ROM file too. If not there should be a makeROM file for you to drag the *.nb file into. Again, this is assuming its similar to the omnia kitchen.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] heineken78:
Not the way of making bin. i780 has different adressing in bin.

BuildOS, its also pretty old stuff for goodworking rom.

No block recognizer

Hi,

I flashed this rom for my samsung epix.

Everything ok except

1. Mouse issue (every time I soft reset I have to do the fixing manually again to 4 way button).

Is there any solution to this?

2. My letter recognizer, block recognizer and Transcriber gone. Anyway to get them back?

GPS

How long does it take for aGPS to get a lock in standby mode from a soft re-set? Mine varies anywhere from 1 minute to 10 minutes. (post 1DI update)

I thought aGPS is what the ID1 update broke. I have my GPS setting set for standalone and can sometimes get a lock within the time frames you mentioned.

Has anyone ever had battery issues with the epix? This week, I noticed that it started to charge to only 60%. Then, it stopped charging completely.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Captain_Throwback:
Yes - with my wife's first Epix, the charging port completely stopped working. They sent her an ID1 replacement, and it was downhill from there. At least she was able to get an HTC Pure as an insurance replacement for that one . . .
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] justDave:
The thing I've noticed on my Epix is that if the charge falls below a certain level (about 20%), it will refuse to charge via USB. Even if I turn the phone off and leave it overnight - nothing. The AC charger will bring it back though.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vlad54321:
I dont think anyone cares anymore, I dont blame them. Everyone is switching to android phones, and I will do the same really soon here.

So I installed it, its clean ( well not really, lots of at&t non-sens), runs faster then the hacked version of WM6.5, also my GPS WORKS!!! I never could get it to finish upgrading the "phone" it allways just sits there and I have to restart it. Oh and the mouse works fine also.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] gistofit:
did you previously install the ID1 update? so did this new samsung update fix what the old one broke?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vlad54321:
I guess... Day one, the GPS takes about 20 - 30 sec to lock, some times longer, some time never... so its on and off with that, but it does get a sat lock in the house, and the battery drain problem is better, but still not great with the GPS on. But like I said I cant get it to go through the phone update part, it just locks up on me at the green bars all they way across the screen, I have to pull the battery to get it going, so I am not sure if it fixed the ID1 problem, because I cant complete the upgrade, I am not sure how to bypass the lock up problem when it try's to update the phone. Ill keep trying to get through that part, if some one knows how to fix that issue please let me know.

pulling battery is normal when updating

i have never done the ID1 and i use navimapper for gps....it can be hit or miss and i haven't figured out if it is other programs messing with gps....for the most part it works and locks within a minute or so while moving in a car.

as or the "freezing or locking" while updating i think that is normal. post #963 seems to indicate pulling the battery at that point is normal. therealzam posted on 12th March 2010, 02:41 AM

If you haven't gotten through the install of the phone module, you don't have the GPS fix. Go settings -> systems -> about. New PDA version is pi907UCJD1 (WM 6.5. Build 21895) while the PHONE will be i907UCJD1.

Steve
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] heineken78:
there is nothing special about GPS hardware in phone part. Fixes, work, Its puur PDA drivers/software
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] skiphen:
I updated mine without issue and it completed the update without hanging. There must be something about getting to the JD1 level. My phone is fixed and I'm loving it! GPS locks on in seconds, mouse works (but it's in 4 way by default), it's a lot quicker, some nice improvments to some of the menus, seems to be a little easier to select things with a fat finger so maybe they tweaked the sesativity of that. I do miss the slide to unlock though, anyone know how to get that back?

And if the update doesn't complete 100% I would try the update from another PC.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hizhonor:
I could be wrong in my assumptions as I'm by no means an expert with this stuff. I can only relate my experience.

Early on, I too was having issues getting the upgrade to complete and phone module to load. During one of the many times back and forth before I had a successful load of the PHONE module - but the PDA completed -- I tested the GPS using GPStest.exe. While I had the new 6.5, it would not get a satellite lock . Exiting the GPStest application , minutes would go by and device.exe continued to spike and hold at 60% + until the phone was cycled off and back on. Once the new PHONE loaded, an immediate lock on 9 satellites in less that 5 seconds with no run away device.exe process.

Since the original issue surrounded the aGPS portion of the code, (doesn't that use cell tower location to speed the lock process?) seemed to be a logical assumption that the PHONE update would address the long standing GPS issue.

slide to unlock

may I highly recommend S2U

http://67.43.3.117/~acs2co/S2U2-index.html

very customizable and it has features that I think work better then the built in "slide to unlock"

worth checking out at least.

For the built-in WM6.5 lock go into the registry

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\LockScreen]

change it from 0 to 1 and you'll get the 6.5 lockscreen.

I second this, even though I haven't used it in recent months.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] .fenrir:
Its not a glitch, Samsung did that intentionally. For some reason they must've thought it'd be a great idea to combine the SMS and MMS into one screen. Under normal circumstances it would be, however it makes the phone treat SMS like MMS so it slows down sending which turned this into a stupid idea. Fortunately it's not hard to undo what Samsung did since its just a registry edit, though since I'm not on my computer I don't remember which key it was exactly. I'll post it whenever I get back on my computer.

Hi,

Sorry, If I confused! Any body updated with Sumsung given WM6.5?

I did it but I found trancan cooked version is lot better than standard interface.

No slide to unlock. Even Key pad I didn't like. Though I missed

1.other input methods

2. Mouse

I can live without them.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] AlphaX:
just updated my epix from stock ATT 6.1 to stock ATT 6.5

I did not apply the ID1 GPS patch, though I never had data on this phone so it usually takes a while to lock on 2min give or take.

I use Garmin Mobile XT, will install and see if it is good.

Overall impression is that this is a lot faster and response than 6.1

But there is a lot of ATT bloatware that came with it.

Would be nice (if trashcan is still working on this) take this image, extract out all of the driver he need to fix the mouse/cam problem and release a clean one.

Glad to see this... was 2min away from calling and buying an Android, lets see if this work bit better :D
