Copy files from attachment in Windows directory (copy to memory card first, then copy/replace to Windows (PDA).

Other way - from your PDA copy to PC files named

StartMenu_GridScene_640x480.cpr

StartMenu_GridScene_480x640.cpr

from Windows directory (PDA), open with notepad, change the font size or font name. Save it, copy/replace back to Windows directory on PDA. But You must copy these files on memory card first, then copy/replace to Windows directory.

Hi Rishi, thanks for the update, I just wanted to understand if you have any update regarding the upgrade for ASUS P320 (wm 6.1 to WM 6.5. Ihave been trying couple of things not working. I have flash bios 4.15 downloaded from the ASUS website.

Cheers!

Hi,

currently I use rishi's wm6.5 28008, but I noticed that camera don,t work. Still camera works just fine, but when I switch to movie camera, screen goes black, and freezes. In other words camera don't work. Any solution?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rishi2504:
Yes, my next ROM :). I had not spotted this issue till very late as I never used the video camera feature. Anyway, the next ROM will not have this issue and will have around 150 MB of free storage, action screen, new taskbar, better start menu icons and more....

Hello rishi, your rom is great but im just wondering whether you can include Network Setting, Internet Sharing in your nx update? N here's a gd application to add-on as well which is Home Screen Customizer.

Thx n cheers 4 your gd job.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rishi2504:
1. Network setting - It takes up a lot of space, hence it's better off being installed as a .cab. I can add the .cab in uploads, and you may install it automatically during initial customization using 'sdconfig.txt'. BTW, I have already included ADC ( Automatic Data Configuration) in the ROM, doesn't it do the required job ?

2. Internet Sharing - Again, not many people use it. The idea was to make the rom as light as possible, so I didn't include it. I will try to see if this can be cabbed as well.

3. Home Screen customizer - This application installs in 'Program Files' and not in Windows, hence cooking it in rom will lead to duplicates and hece reduced storage space. I have the .cab and this too can be installed during initial customization. BTW, not sure if you noticed, the rom already has Chome Editor in 'Settings'.

Hope this helps.

cheers,
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] agitate:
I'd like to see this included by default too. I hadn't even realised that it had been stripped out, so thanks for pointing it out spiritbabe30 (realising that it wasn't there next time I actually needed it would have been a pain). You can find the .exe and .dll that you need for Internet Sharing here:

Hi Rishi,

Surely we want the fully baked CAKE.

Moreover, I am having frequent problem of network with my phone. usually Incoming calls get disconnected in few seconds and the phone searches for the network for a minute or so. Though I have replaced the sim card twice and tried the sim with other handset without issue, once few apps are installed the Network issue starts up.

As there is no update for the Radio, I was wondering if this problem is only with my phone or what?

Has any body got MMS working with this ROM? There isn't a client included (that I could find) so I installed Arcsoft MMS and configured it but I can't retrieve MMS messages. I have tried lots of different settings and lots of different versions of Arcsoft, but no joy. I'm on O2 in the UK.

Wait over guys, I have posted the updated ROM. Flash it and let me know your feedback...

About the updated Dialpad, I have been working on it for for over a month now, and made several VGA dialpads, but none of them is bugfree. Some have memory issues, some have graphical problems, while some had menu issues. So, I did not include any of those in this ROM.

Till I get hold of someone who helps me write the dialer 'dll' myself, there won't be a ROM with updated Dialer. Sorry about that :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mikeycl:
great build rishi have installed it today and using it now but have one criticism

MMS where is it?

phones were designed with the basic purpose of making and receiving phone calls then can SMS and then MMS. you cant justify stripping out what is considered to be a core feature without explanation. i know have a message on my phone that i cant view.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] genci:
too much?

Hi Rishi

I flashed your rom, here's my feedback.

1. Too many changes, it seems not natural and hard to get used to, especially the small icons in the upper bar, it's kinda cartoonish

2. Diaplad.... ugly!

3. Nice icons in the start menu, but when browsing explorer the yellowish very small folders and fonts make it really hard.

4. Less free ram than the previous one, although quite stripped down.

This is what I can remember now, cause I reflashed another rom within 5 minutes. I would suggest making something more normal, aiming to the RAM, not the graphics.

Well, this is just an opinion. Hope you don't mind

Cheers
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] agitate:
@Genci What was the other ROM you used? I've used a few of Blade0rz' and Meekel's, and prefered the more vanilla builds that they produced, but all those ROMs are a bit outdated now.

@Rishi No offence mate. I appreciate your work, but without MMS I'm stuffed (see previous (unanswered) post), and I spend a lot of time undoing your personalisations (which would be more suited to go in your own UC config). Space in ROM is just not an issue for me either. I install all my programs to my SD card so I don't see what the point of stripping stuff out of the ROM is. Again, no offence (and thanks for putting the internet sharing back in this one).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] genci:
i cooked mo own 28217 couple of days ago. It appears to run smoothly, about 44 MB Ram free on first startup. I'm trying to cook 28230 tomorrow.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rishi2504:
Dude, feedback taken, but I can't include MMS. Sorry about that. Simply bcoz :

1. It can be added with simple cabs.

2. Not everywhere in the world do people use MMS. This phone was retailed in India and there are a large number of users who do not have a GPRS data plan, forget about 3G.

As far as your requirements are concerned, you can search for Arcsoft MMS and add it to your phone. The ROM is meant to be light, and I wil try to exclude as much a possible leaving customizations to the users.

cheers,

rishi2504
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rishi2504:
Well, a thing of personal preference, I would say. The same Taskbar has been liked by many and me too, that's the reason I included it in the ROM. Anyway, feel free modify it to your own perferences.

Feedback taken, I didn't add anything to the stock WM Dialer, Just replaced the graphics, you may uset the ones your like ( even the stock ones)...you can get them in a cab on the forum ( i guess Ryon posted it somewhere)

1. I don't think folder icons are small, not sure what issue you are talking about.

2. For fonts, again the personal perference thing. Feel free to replace the fonts with the original fonts ( there are two, Tahoma and Tahomabd).

Hmmm... need to look at this one. I did add some stuff, but that should not have caused any problems with free RAM.

Well, this is a debatable issue. What is the free RAM for ? If I give you a ROM with over 60 MB of free RAM and and each application takes a long time to load, or some default applications are missing ( like INTERNETSHARING was and someone asked me to add it), I don't think people will download and use my ROM. So, moral of the story, not everyone can be kept happy :)

Not at all, as long as people know how to react to stuff they get for free. Without pointing fingers at anyone( and of course not at you), I think we need to learn to give feedback for stuff we get without paying anything. I must have flashed my phone for over 600 times now, with the risk of bricking it every time, just becoz I like what I am doing. And that I would even when I don't post my work.

cheers,

Feedback on the new ROM

Hello Rishi,

I am still evaluating the new ROM that you have posted on 23 Feb. So far everything looks fine and the available program memory seems to be good as well. One amazing thing that I have experienced with this new ROM is that, somehow the battery backup of my phone seems to have improved drastically. Before, with the stock ROM, the battery percentage used to drop from 100% to 40% in about 9 hours of usage [thats the time I work in office :)]. However, from the past three days of using the new ROM, the battery percentage only dropped from 100% to 77% in 9 hours. That according to me is a great thing! Just curious, if you have actually cracked the battery backup problem in ASUS phone :) LOL

Anyways thanks for your great work. I will provide more feedback on the ROM once I am done evaluating

Cheers.

Hello

I have a problem with ip setting. In Wi-Fi -> Network Adapters -> SDIO8686 Wireless Card -> IP address I see:

- Use server-assigned IP address (and then IP is in hex)

- Use specific IP address

Then I should be able to write an address below but I can't. A can for example write 119 in first ip field, but I can't write 169 (the biggest numer I can write is 119)

Worse is that I can't write 255 in first field of subnet mask. I allows to write 25 and I can't write next 5.

I was thinking I need write address in hex, but it doesn't allow me to write lettest so it doesn't work too. Any help?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Marx2:
Hello

Is anybody still using this ROM?

I have a problem with WiFi connection.

It works ok with unsecured access point, but WPA or WPA2 doesn't work.

I own this access point, so I can switch on any security pattern, but none works. Access point is configured ok, because I can connect to it with windows station (WPA2/AES).

In ROM I can use WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK with AES or TKIP - anything I like. But maybe XDA Zest hardware can work only with some of them?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jonnymint:
My router uses WPA+WPA2 to accomodate for my xbox 360, which will only support WPA-PSK, So it allows device to connect with either security standard.

My phone connects using WPA2-PSK, with AES encryption, so it's probably a problem with your rom, so maybe a back up and reflash/hard reset is the best option for you.

However, you're saying it works with an unsecured access point, so maybe you have put in the code wrong, I know that sounds silly, but it's worth checking before doing a hard reset, and if you have you'll save yourself a lot of hassle! :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Marx2:
!) thank you for information that Rishi' ROM works ok with encryption - i will try again.

2)Another question - I use AlReader for ebooks - windows often close my application (maybe because of lack of free RAM). But it's pathethic because it sometimes close my app during reading.... So I lock phone during reading, unlock it and I see AlReader closing...

3)I use Media Player to play mp3 via BT headset. I launch MP, lock phone and listen. On Artemis with WM 6.1 i was switching off phone and it was playing mp3 in background. Here it sometimes stop playing after each song and I have to press button on headset to resume next song.

(there is also no equalizer for WMP, no resume plugin on 6.5.3 and it forgets playlists when I connect phone to computer in USB mass storage mode - but I can live with it)

Anyway I'm thinking about return to 6.1 ROM - i like 6.5.x but I have too much problems with core functions: mp3 playing, ebook reading and Wifi.
