thx a lot

[Windows Mobile] af974:
Why bother with it, they will be overwrite from those one in EXT folder :D

Nahhh...jk....can you upload your OEM folder so we can have a look in it?
[Windows Mobile] deepankerjha:
I know that mate,but the problem is there r some packages in the OEM which i dont want to use at all but cant c a way to delete them,fearing it may not boot the rom.I want to make a complete NEW OEM or DELETE those packages completly.

i remember when last i tried this i got a rom with normal boot up and abnormal behaviour :D ....so just not daring again.will upload my OEM pkg for u to have look.

is there any way to know package specific files/folders in the OEM for EVK ?I doubt.....but then u r my SUNSHINE....:) when it comes to problems in cooking
[Windows Mobile] af974:
you are my sunshine....my only sunshine....lol nice song :D

you are to kind say this...im only a noob the real masters here are Shane (TPC),NGR,Leo(??...oh sure Laurentius :D ) and sorry if i forgot someone :rolleyes:

I would make a thread with a list of OEM/EXT packages explanation,

im in the same mod as you ....

...what the hell is " irsir.dll " or " Random_Access_4_1_19173928_0" ??

dunno...lol...i just use the instinct to cook roms :D

waiting for your OEM.
[Windows Mobile] deepankerjha:
hey bro suddenly something came in my mind.just going to try that out.if it works,will let u know.

and yes SHANE is too good to be a human :) always supporting and always there....

[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
I haven't messed around much with OEM's myself, but the only thing to keep in mind is that if you shift a package from there to the EXT, you need to convert it to EXT format. Change .rgu's to app.reg files, delete the .dsm's, and get the proper folder structure. Once, I moved NETCF from a Sys to my EXT directory, not thinking about the folder conversion, and I ended up with a rom that didn't have net framework. It booted up ok, but let me tell you, that rom suck hard. It took me a while to figure out what I'd done wrong. Check your dump before flashing just to make sure all the files are included.

Random Access is the alphabet that appears on the right side of your contacts (and other places), and that gives you a quick shortcut to hop down to a specific letter. I'm guessing irsir.dll is some IR based driver? But if it's in your oem, then maybe it's something else. A quick google will definitely tell you what it is.

Edit: yeah irsir.dll is an ir driver:

Here's a thread that says you can remove irsir.dll if you don't have IR on your device. Not sure why they put it in, in that case.
[Windows Mobile] af974:
oh dammit...now i cant sleep if you dont say me what came in your mind :D

Uhmmm.....are you sure that he is an human?? do you have prove? :D
[Windows Mobile] deepankerjha:
thx ted for ur thoughts on that,but how about if i dont want to move the OEM to EXT and use a new EXT?
[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
Just create a new EXT, and move all the file you want into the \New EXT\Files folder, and if there's an associated .rgu, rename it app.reg and stick it in the \New EXT folder. That's pretty much all you have to do.
[Windows Mobile] deepankerjha:
nop Shane is more than human...:) because being HUMAN i know :D
[Windows Mobile] deepankerjha:
ted thats exactly i want to know that what if i dont want some packages from the OEM how do i delete it ? because its a jungle out there in the OEM folder :D
[Windows Mobile] rgb-rgb:
Not sure I am following correctly, but if you just want to move things to a new OEM folder so that you don't mess up the original OEM folder here is what I do.

Under the OEM folderI have a Rhodium folder. I just rename that to RhodiumOriginal and then make another folder Rhodium. now just copy everything to this folder and you can make changes without messing up the original folder. If soemthing doesn't work out, just delete the new folder and rename the original folder.

Just make sure that the folder you want to use is the first folder in the OEM directory or EVK won;t like it. If you rename the original folder to OriginalRhodium EVK won;t like it because O comes before R. Hope you understand that part. If not, EVK will let you know pretty quick there is a problem.
[Windows Mobile] af974:
If i remember right you are using Mega EXT package right?

Well i guess you can delete OEM_app because is plenty of useless files with Mega Pack.

In OEM drivers i would not delete the dll folders and some dll file, but Autorun,commmanager,some ringtones and picture could be deleted without problem.

I suggest you to use an app for comapring folders,in 2nd thread there is one, for check both OEM and EXT and see which files are duplicated.
[Windows Mobile] chota_shivaji:
- Following are the contents of my OEM folder in EVK for your reference. Everything else is in EXT :

.VM

0409

--ConfigAP

--CONNECTIONSETUPDB

--ExtendedPkg

--ExtraFilesPkg

--OEM_Lang_0409

--OperatorPkg

--OperatorPkg_PT

COMMON

--COLORSKIN

--OEM_DPI_96

--OEMAPPS

--OEMDrivers

--OEMMISC

--OEMOPERATORS

--OEMVersion

- This works fine for Elfin/Elf ROMs.

Hope this helps :).

[Windows Mobile] Farmer Ted:
One thing I've found with the OEM is that if you convert the .provxml's to app.reg files (for the ones with registry operations-don't mess with ones that load certificates and what-not), it will really speed up your first boot-time. There's really no good reason, for instance, to have a provxml load your OEM version. Just put that in a .reg file and delete the .provxml. I get to the welcome screen in 90 s with most of the registry operations loaded into app.reg files, and during screen alignment, the cursor moves quickly. If you use autorun for customization, though, you need to leave alone the autoruncfg reg key that is in the 107 (think that's the one) provxml.
[Windows Mobile] deepankerjha:
Thx ted for the tip,will try to find out how does it work.

btw coming back to the main issue,tell me how can I remove a particular app/program from OEM/APPS folder after dumping a stock rom?how do I know which r the files/reg/xml/etc r of a particular program?if I can find out that my job will be done.since my main issue is to clear all not needed programs to clear from the OEM folder

Hi,

i'm travelling to London for a week.

Just checked how much it would cost with my current provider to make mobile internet connections, the roaming prices are horrendous.. :eek:

Is there a way to get a cheap Sim with a mobile-internet package included, pre-paid?

Is it even possible for people from other coutries to get such cards in England?

Also, if there is a way, where do i get it and how much would it cost? Round about?

thx for any suggestions,

fooXeh
[Networking] djoutsider:
I know from o2

Will be ₤10 for sim + ₤7.50 for 500 mb of internet ;)

sorry for lang
[Networking] fooXeh:
And do you think they will sell me the Simcard at a local o2 shop without any problems?

17,50 pound for a month seems reasonable.

Without any contracts?
[Networking] fooXeh:
Cannot find the option on the UK site of o2...

Anybody got details about that offer?
[Networking] meknb:
http://shop.o2.co.uk/tariffs/Pay_and_Gothen click view details on the text and web dont know what they class as unlimited internet?
[Networking] deedee:
Other suggestion would be 3 PAYG. They may not post overseas but if you have a friend who can order you one and send it on, this may be the way to go. Their minimum top-up is £10 which gives you internet for 90 days per top up.
[Networking] stylez:
500mb and about 11000 texts PM "that's going on me checking and i topped up end of last month"

It's a good deal when for general use as you can top up £15 get above then get the 50min bolt on for £7.99 which suffices me.
[Networking] fooXeh:
Thanks for the suggestions.

I think in London i won't have problems with fast 3G connections, right?

I'll just visit a shop in the city.

What do you call "Top Up"? I don't really get how that works.
[Networking] stylez:
Should be fine for 3G i live in a little town and pretty much always HSDPA.

Regard topup you can pretty much use any news agents and just ask for O2 topup or whichever carrier u choose, they just provide a recipet that has the no. on, when u get sim u'll get a card to which can be used to top up just saves gettin the reciept with a no. on "havent got around to using mine as i'll only loose it" lol

Good luck on your travels :)
[Networking] fooXeh:
Thanks, now everything seems to be ready to go.. but.. wait.

It's a bird... it's no planes.. its Icelandic Vulcanos..

Sucks to me be..
[Networking] stylez:
That's cool :) Not sure what to make of the later but i assure you no Icelandic Volcanoes in London, we do have planes & the birds are up to spec :D
[Networking] AdrianK:
hah, that really does suck :P

Just an update on tarrifs, on O2 you no longer need the £7.50 bolt on for browsing, they give you free browsing for the month (500MB) when you top up £10. Since they got exclusivity for the iPhone back in '07 they have EDGE coverage as well as HSDPA and GPRS.

Hi, My HD2 Crashes whenever Network Key on My Home Network is changed. I have to totally depend on LUCK to get it working again. Unless I don't soft reset it like 5-6 times, It (HD2) wouldn't respond properly.

Ne solution to Fix this...??:confused::confused::confused::rolleyes:
[HD2 General] hesian:
You can always bring it up by pressing the keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen. How can you remove it though ?

All Apps handle the keyboard differently. Only a very few let you press the keyboard button again to remove it. Some let you scroll the App underneath. Some don't let you do anything.

A good example is Windows Explorer. Have a play and see what I mean.

Am I missing something, is there a solution ?
[HD2 General] stuballmac:
hey hesian, sorry but i dont have a solution but am in agreement with you on this. my example is while using opera the keboard icon remains and blocks out the "tabs" icon when in portrait. hope someone may know this one.

my phone is HD2 with lynx-ex 1.4.1 rom.

thanks

i mean first theres one with 2.1 then it has a whole lot of bugs...i cant make up my mind!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomikoran2:
i think sensehero is the best.it is 1.5,i have been using it for a few days now and it's amazing!fast,stable and it looks great!you can find it here,http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=637064

but i think that developer has it's own forum now so you have to download it from there!
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortal_Baron:
but its 1.5...isnt 2.1 the latest and greatest and fastest ??
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomikoran2:
yeah it is,but developers are still waiting for the official hero 2.1 rom that should be out in a few days now...i tried most of the 2.1 roms and none of them has everything you would want...so you should be patient for a few days more till the REAL thing comes out...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortal_Baron:
thats bad. i thout 2.1 was released fr htc hero!! whats the delay?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomikoran2:

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ian_4614:
why not ?????
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danial.aw:
If you want a 1.5 based rom personally I like modaco... sensehero is pretty much the same thing but I dont like the blue colour much...

If you are looking for a 2.1 based for me I have found the Villain SprintHero port rom to be the best and fastest overall ...

between that category the competition would be between Villain Sprint and BeLegendary 1.3.5...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortal_Baron:
i see...and what if i flash my hero with the cyanogen 5.0 rom thats designd fr the nexus one?? will it work of will i brick my fone??

Just don't do it. It won't work.

If you want a ROM similar to the Nexus One, try Androbin

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rayjt9:
If you're looking for a decent 2.1 rom, try VillainRom. I use it and have no complaints so far. :)

It's not as stable as some ROMs, but it's pretty fast and has great features. Having said that, a lot of people use HeroDroid as it's far more stable apparently, but doesn't have things like Live Wallpapers. I have had no issues with VillainRom, however.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbman1996:
Judging by this and a couple of other posts he wants something similar to the Nexus ROM, ie. Vanilla 2.1

does the modaco rom have the same problem ??
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liljom:
If you want a beautiful, fast, and stable ROM, try the SenseHero (I always restore it after trying any 2.1)

If you want features: Villain 5.x or Legendroid ; )
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jackhab:
+1 for SenseHero. Incredibly fast. Since I installed it I stopped using task managers any more to kill applications since it has very well optimized memory manager.

Hello! I don't want to open up a new thread just for this so I figured I could just post it here. I am interested in your subjective opinion on the fastest ROM which starts fast and stays that way. Thank you in advance.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rapsass:
Froydvillain rom 1.5 is awesome and for sure the fastest 2.2 rom for Hero. Try it, you won't regret ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Proz0r:
Yes, I have. It indeed is really good, but after a while it goes sluggish...
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pulser_g2:
If you get sluggishness, check your CPU overclocking settings, and ensure the minimum speed is high enough. Also, I don't recommend overclocking it, since stock is fast enough usually.

Failing that, change the adjustment method to "on demand", and the sleep one to "conservative"
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MacaronyMax:
Or use a Task Killer :D

The best rom by a mile has to be Floyo 1.01 with smartass fly kernal. It's fast and furious.

but i have no clue where to start with these 2.2 ROMs and i only want a 2.2 one now... if it can honestly run 2.2 on the hero without problems

im stuck between...

Froydvillain

Floyo

Fusion ROM Froyo

ahhhhhhhhhhhh

EDIT: after just reading the threads i think i may flash froydvillain or floyo

any suggestions? i think floyo uses the kernel-11 but froyd doesnt!

After a long period of using FroydVillain all the way from the version 1.1.1, I've finally tried Vanilla Eclair and was disappointed by the lack of functionality. Right now I'm using Floyo and it's great. As I already said, FV gets sluggish eventually, I have tried everything suggested here and it didn't work. I've only been using Floyo for a couple of days so we'll see how it maintains its speed.

Not sure if this is the place to get an answer, but I have a big problem. HelixLauncher has locked my Droid Getting a pop-up message: "Helixlauncher has stopped unexpectedly, please try again" with a small command window that says "Force Close". Touching Force Close just brings back the message again and no other commands are possible. Tried removing battery, but same issue repeats. Phone is currently unusable until I find a solution. Please help.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Carloswithac:
You could use adb to remove helixlauncher. That is, if you didn't remove the stock launcher.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] martin0285:
sounds like someone should have nanded :) ..... if whats posted above doesn't work, re-flash your rom.....take it as a lesson, nanding is your best friend :rolleyes:
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] grainysand:
Your, ah, Droid? Not that I think you should be stoned and chased out for posting about something non-N1, but...

That aside, were you using just plain HelixLauncher or HelixLauncher2? The latter was developed for the N1 and, as I understand, doesn't play nice with Droids.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] EkoTonic:
N1 in same trouble

Although tech savvy, still new to Android & N1.

Thought I needed HelixLauncher and installed it on to my N1 w/ 2.1 u1. Was working ok, but I decided to drop screen size to 1.

It's also possible, but unsure about this, that I tried installing HL2.

In short ended up with unending prompt and the same issues as listed in original post.

Looking into resetting, using pwr+vol.dwn. Is that what was meant by re-flashing, or that's something harsher? Couldn't find what 'nanding' means.

Also, the N1 is not rooted, whatever that means again.

Ended up eventually resetting phone to factory values. Reconfiguring phone now..
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] djmcnz:
Actually, if you're fast enough you can stop this fc loop.

You need to get to Settings | Applications | Manage Applications and then clear the defaults for HelixLauncher so that you can select the regular launcher.

But how with constant fc? I did it this way:

When HL fc's it will briefly throw you out to the last screen you had active before it tries to reload (you only get half a second or so). The time that you do get should be enough to enter one or so commands... so after fc #1, press close then quickly hit the menu button and 'Settings', HL will launch again and fc again, after pressing close you should see the settings page, hit Applications, HL will launch again and fc, press close and hit Manage Applications... etc, etc.

Painful but perhaps better than a rebuild if you have no other way.

YMMV
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] EkoTonic:
Yeah, I tried, but wasn't fast enough. It's like the wild wild west.. the slowest gun lost.

It seems either Android or the launcher should offer a more graceful bailout in scenarios like this. Seems like a serious bug to me. And I've written a few of those myself.. :o
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] djmcnz:
lol, yeah, the gun slinging took me a bit of time!

And the problem is a recognised one BUT the instructions are clear... wipe the data before reverting from Helix to stock and when upgrading roms... the dev has tried to put failsafes in but short of deleting the data there are few options...

But, since the warning is in place, I don't think we can call it a bug, rather an understood limitation... painful nevertheless.

PS - if you've got Set CPU installed you could try and get to that and set your speeds a low as possible, this will give you more time... still requires the gun though.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] britoso:
Did you install it as a system app? Launcher2.apk ?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Jack Everyman:
The suckiest option is to always do a factory reset, as long as you didn't flash the helix launcher. This will delete the Helix Rom, but it will also delete everything from your phone. Proceed with caution!
