The author's download page is here:

http://gsoft.fromru.com/

He supplies just a setup.exe type installer. Launching it on a PC triggers a simple install-via-synch. But extracting it I find that it contains just a couple of files, a 000 file to direct the install on a PPC and a 001 file which is in fact the EXE which runs on the device. So if you extract the contents of the EXE with WinRAR or whatever on the PC, then rename the 001 file to EXE, you can run it as a standalone in whatever location you prefer and avoid the PC-based install.

What are you talking about?! :confused: It would be nice if you gave some more details. Furthermore, it would be polite if you'd show a bit more respect to ahmedfikry. Besides, the actual ROM has no issues, to my knowledge. It's perfect and fast as hell!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
thanks for yr nice words

I am open to constructive critisism

perfect example is the sound fix (louder) cab & files attached above by users who want to help...THANKS

some other people just like to complain in a nasty way...even if it was their fault messing with a perfectly good rom by adding/deleting stuff to make their phone a peice of crap

comments like that kind of piss me off from people who do not appreciate the effort to cook these roms

and obviously, i'd rather have them move to another rom better than listening to them cry without proper feed back that help me fix whatever need fixed

Hi ahmedfikry

Hi ahmedfikry

I would just like to say that I was VERY excited when I loaded your ROM, but the problem I experienced was as follows:

1. Loading the ROM and starting the OS was a DREAM! My unit was never as fast as this. I also, like you, wanted something with stability and speed.

2. I then started using the unit, and for the first 30sec to 5min the unit ran fine, but then started slowing down to the point that I had to RESET it.

3. The unit was (after a HARD RESET) running fine again for up to 5min, but then started deteriarating, again.

4. I also reloaded the unit fresh and only loaded my addressbook onto the system, with the same go-slow result.

My conclusion is that it is either something with the combination of ROM/RADIO I used (I will try and use as specified the previous stable-mentioned posts) or that it is due to some piece of SW not being stable...

Kind regards AND I do hope to run your ROM as I can see a definate advantage running something as fast as this.

Further on this..

Further on this..

i am using an HTC TYTNII, South African.

Is there in any way I can debug this for you to get to a solution? I was very excited to see the speed coming out of the phone, until the slow-down problems...

Also, once the rom installs, you pop-up a script that does some tweaking of the phone, is it possible that one of the tweaks does not fit my unit? Is it possible to stop the script running to pin-point the problem.

Kind regards

Aubrey
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
the slowing maybe happing because XDA_UC (user customization) process would be running in the background after first reboot

let it finish & then it will ask you to soft reset...after that it should be fast

to avoid it all together....remove your memory card, then flash the rom...when XDA_UC starts it will not find the card or anything to instal, then you just reset & ready to go then without waiting
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
thanks for the detailed report

happy to hear that the rom works well for you & the bugs were not anything i can fix..it was your SIM card all along :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] aubreykloppers:
Thanx ahmedfikry

My 3G SIM just came up and so-far so-good. It seems your ROM is to fast for 2.2SIM's :p

Cheers and have a good weekend

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] GerardSamija:
Continuing with the same ROM, radio, and SPL as in my last post, last evening I had several device failures.

- Audio quit working after making three calls successfully, with no audio on receiving a call. After soft reset audio worked again.

- An hour or so later the phone did not ring nor even wake up with an incoming call, only waking to notify me there was a voicemail.

- A while later still the device refused to let me access the phone interface. I'd see it attempting to load for about 3 seconds, with the title and a couple of lower bar buttons appearing, then winking out back to Today or whichever other interface I tried. Opened Contacts and tried to call someone from there, but again the phone refused to launch. First time I've ever seen this error. A soft reset fixed it.

It's starting to seem like my phone is a special case. I have a new SIM from Rogers so that is not likely the issue, as it worked great for a while. I have disabled auto-recording of calls and deleted Resco Audio's startup shortcut as of starting testing with this ROM/radio/SPL combination, so that's not the guilty party.

-----------------

EDIT: This morning the power-off in 15 seconds problem has returned. Also Contacts showed as blank, zero contacts, when opened using the menu shortcut. All my categories were still there, just no contacts. Opening contacts by the Today softkey showed all my contacts in the phone dialpad interface. Closing Contacts with ArkSwitch and trying again, the app would not launch, similar to the phone non-launch last night. A soft reset fixed this, though the power-off problem remained.

So far with this combination the camera has worked, except for the first time attempted, when trying to delete a captured image caused an 'eternal hourglass' which could only be escaped with a soft reset. After that it's been fine.

Been running 23549 on 2 tilts for the last 7 days. On #1 I had 1 call come in with no ring and 1 time the vibrate was hard on until I played another sound. On #2 the s2u2 display was messed up not showing the slide until a soft reset. Not any other problems. The only difference between the two is different sim cards with different versions. Since I'm on tmo US I only get to use Edge. Donation on the way. Love it!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
get rid of ALL the task managers & power management applications:

arkswitch AMeBa S2U2...etc (or similar ones)

it seems that something is messing with wakeup & power management

even after removing these software sometimes registry entries by them stay in place...better to have a clean flash without even installing them all from the start (removing memory card or removing them from XDA_UC folder)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
i suggest you delete S2U2, use smartlock in XDA_UC and go to settings---system---smartlock.....then enable dim lock, suspend lock, & in call lock

this way the original wm6.5 sliding lock will give you what you get with S2U2

thanks for your donation very much
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] nauriceprivat:
small problem

I am using for few weeks the version from here, if I turn off the display, and not using my device few hours, cannot be opened again, must soft reset. What I can do?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
which rom are you using?

this black screen issue is solved in the latest 23549 rom...download link in first post, try to upgrade to the latest one
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] GerardSamija:
I have never installed any task manager besides ArkSwitch with your ROMs, and that only via UC. So there can not be any leftover registry data nor other files or behaviours from any task manager, since none have ever been introduced to my device.

Since today the phone has continued to behave badly in a few new ways it is becoming clear that I should try other things to resolve the problems, as I must have a reliable phone for my business. Toward that result, I just installed af974's 'Kaiser Essentials' ROM. So far it is blisteringly fast, the fastest responsiveness I have ever seen on this phone. My 844 Contacts open from Today in less than 1/10th of a second, where this was taking over 1 second with the various ahmedfikry ROM versions I tried. Same everywhere in the device, it's just about as quick to respond to input as an iPhone, which for a Windows Mobile device (speaking as a 10 year veteran of 15 devices) is just a bit hard to believe. Reboot time is also about 1/3 of what I'd been experiencing, making for far fewer incoming calls while resetting the device.

I've begun adding applications and so far no change, this ROM works perfectly. I was even able to set up Microsoft MyPhone for the first time (never worked with ahmedfikry ROMs nor on my old HTC Elfin with dsixda's ROMs), and sync went flawlessly after auto-updating to the latest version of that program. If something goes wrong with this ROM, of course I am likely to return to this forum for further updates, but if it continues as it is my choice in terms of running my business is obvious. Nothing against ahmedfikry, truly. It just seems to be 'one of those things' for my particular phone and/or software environment.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
hello Gerard

thanks for your feedback

again like i said before, because of some packages that i do not cook (to keep my rom light) you may have issues if you are a user who depends on certain applications

it seems (from your previous posts too) that af9764 would suite you better i think...i will see what i can do with mine but i do not intend to cook these packages soon
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
cooking 23551 now
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] GerardSamija:
Thanks Ahmed. So far so good with this other ROM. I really like the sharp icons in menus with this one, and the speed remains very nice with all my apps installed, even with Resco Audio recording calls. So far the camera is still working, backlight and suspend timeouts stable, no audio problems or phone failures. And as a surprise bonus, CardExport works flawlessly with my Windows 7 netbook so the Kaiser is as useful as an external storage volume as was my HTC Elfin. For whatever reason, I could never get stable CardExport behavior with your ROMs.

I also suffered several storage card corruption episodes with your ROMs... so that's something I'll be watching for with this other ROM, still not sure whether it's a ROM-related issue or just a problem with the Kaiser's hardware. I had similar issues with cards in my old iPAQ 3835, where running apps on the card through a string of suspend/wake cycles would result in large scale data corruption and even filesystem corruption on memory cards. None of the other devices I've used (Casio E-115, EG-800 (5 units - lots of other hardware problems with that model), Dell X5, Toshiba e800, e830, O2 Atom, HTC Elfin) has shown this problem of communication instability with memory cards.

As a foot note, I'm a 62 year old codger. Well I went to my local mobile phone shop the other day and asked the guy behind the counter if they sold a phone that I could just dial a number or at a pinch dial a contact.

there was a pause a quizical look on his face then he replied "We don't sell house phones here"...I think that sums it up......Anyway my son kindly gave me his Kaiser and after sitting an exam in computer technology and some 6 months later I arrived at this forum (Again at my son's suggestion) I tried several of the ROM's here (No disrespect to the excellent Chefs) I found even the easiest of tasks a bit awkward to achive. Until I came to your ROM's and I thought here at last is a Chef who knows exactly what I want. A compact light ROM without all the extras and best of all one that I can customise with all the essential bits that I want in there.....Brilliant......I love your work. I've managed to put my XDA_UC folder together with the bits I need it takes me some 15 minutes to setup my phone from flashing the ROM to a working phone. Thanks again ahmedfikry. :cool:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ahmedfikry:
thanks again for sharing & for your very nice words

happy to hear that you like the rom

i did use BTmusic in the past for the same reason (incoming call issue) but i included a "lighter" solution for users with ToggleBT...if you are a regular BT user, then BTmusic is the one for sure
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] RasputinUK:
My pleasure my friend, I belive in giving credit where credit is due. Can't wait until your next release. and of course I will report any issues I have with this ROM or your next ones...I am thinking of removing TomTom from the XDA_UC folder and installing it to the SD card instead as I only use TomTom if I get lost haha I have a GO300 for serious navigation this would leave a bit more main memory to run the OS a little bit smoother. I'll try it on the next release...

Ahmed,

I can't thank you enough for this ROM. I was completely new to flashing and after trying just 1 ROM with a bunch of other stuff cooked in, I knew I needed something lighter. Your ROM fit the bill and I was blown away by the improved performance of my ATT Tilt! I'm a fan and gladly donated what I could. Keep cooking, chef! :P

Sincerely,

Any chance for adding languages, like dutch?

Hi ahmedfikry,

Like the new ROM, although I found problem with it. When running file explorer and selecting a picture to set as a homescreen background the phone completly locks up, have to do a soft reset. Also happens in settings, home settings....another minor problem is closing apps the phone seems to hang for 30 secs or more....

I have managed to sort out my XDA_UC folder with my preferred settings which are working now the whole process takes about 10 mins from start of flashing. the only thing I'm stuck with is the registry keys for regional settings and home wallpaper just can't see where these are set in the registry.....:(
