Yes. Before installing the driver there was a short error-msg that it couldn't find the right port.

Is there any way of finding out if the driver was installed successfully?

Is my German OS the problem? are there other (German) drivers I could use?

I haven't got a machine with XP on it. I have to use Win 7.

Any other ideas?

RAM disk with WM6.5 on hx4705??

Could someone enlighten on the above topic ... advantages, disadvantages ... benefits, problems.

I am having some confusion putting a RAM disk in context on a solid state device. I have 128 RAM with 32MB PP.

Hi to all, sorry for my stupid question but I would like to be sure before try this upgrade. Actually I have Alkor 6.1_21054 firmware which is 50.432KB sized (.nb0) instead this new one is full rom size: 130.816KB. My question is: does this rom fix in my HX4700? (see information below)

From HP Asset Viewer under memory TAB, I have these informations below:

System ROM Size: 128MB

System RAM Size: 64MB

ROM Is Flash: Yes

Flash Chip Type: 28F128

Flash Block Size: 128KB

PSM Driver Version: 3.7

Which problems could I find with this RAM of 64MB? And which PagePool is better for me??

Best Regards

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Spiaatie:
Fix what?

You don't need to change pagepool on 64MB RAM.

It's full size ROM to avoid any leftovers from older ones.

bt-dun is working !!

:D I try your wm 6.5 update, and the bt-dun is working now !! I paired with my bluetooth phone and it's works !!..thanks Spiaatie, you're rock !! :D:D

Is it normal for 64MB machine, after the wm6.5 update the ram is about 23.91MB ?

And, on the backlight menu, font is mini (like it use to be for QVGA device) and on the power menu, there is very large font at the bottom. May be you can fix that matter?

Honestly, this is the most stable winmo that i ever try for hx4700 (I dare to say, it's more stable then wm6 fix3 by Kozura that I try stable too). It's very rare to have filesys.exe problem (almost 3 day and it is still no filesys.exe problem). I install 38 programs, and most of all in the CF Card.

Again, great job Spiaatie !!

i have this device since wm2003se to wm5 wm6.1 all versions.

and this rocks.

thank you very much, recomended. very fast and almost no filesys problem with all installed in storage card and using ramdisk. what size do you have in your ramdisk for temp files, i have only 2 mb. is it good? maybe i need more space?

thanks Spiaatie.

i have the battery backup problem posted in this thread by someone, is there any fix? is it important? could i use this rom without damaging permanently my device or my battery. i think yes. so i am stay with this rom.

i have a notification that tells me that the battery backup is at 0 % when never had this problem with other roms, wm6.1 and the rest.

could i remove this notification only? as a fix. maybe with fdk taskmanager? in notifications area or memmaid??

the only thing i am worried about is the less free ram, but for my needs is almost a perfect rom.

thanks. :)

Backup Bettery Problem

I am the one who complained about this same error msg after installing WM6.5.

I sent my hx4705 to PPCTechs ... and was advised the CMOS (back-up) battery needed replacement. While I had my unit in service another user responded that this battery was no longer needed since WM5 ... if I remember correctly.

However since return of my unit .. with new (now a LiIon battery) .. the battery (now at 100%) is behaving .. no error msg.

I surmise that the battery needed replacement .. since it was the original unit since my purchase of the new 4705 some years past.

If you are in North America ... PPCTechs' service is about US$75 ... they have always provided me with excellent service.

Hope this helps.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lmemperador:
thanks for your reply.

i will see, and yes since the all OS is in rom there is no need of backup battery. since wm5.0

what is your experience with this wm65 rom?

it is so fast, isn't it?

minimal ram compared with others wm6.1 but i like.

i have tryed alkor final and problems with wifi, no screen to select add a new wireless lan.

and alkor rc2.2, i think ii is a very good rom but sometimes (too much) filesys is disturbuing me. so i stay with this wm6.5

i hope that the author could tune it up a little. to free ram.

another question, do you have 64mb ram? what is your pagepool size? and the ramdisk size?

the last question.... :)

is there any wifiswither like i have in my htc touch diamond2. i see that in order to get the wifi working in the first time using ipaq wireless...then the rest can handle by switchers wifi.exe.

but the initial is by ipaq wireless. i am thinking in making a script in startup of windows using the tap.exe (coordenate1, coordenate2) to make this at the beguining and kill ipaq wireless and wifi, to be ready to use only the switchwifi.exe

thanks.

thanks a lot for your time.

WM6.5 .. more comments

Let me refer you to my earlier post #129 above for most of your questions.

(A) I don't have a RAM disk ... yet, but am stalking the subject. As I understand it is a 'sticky' install ... only a hard reset will dump it.

My 4705 has the upgraded RAM (128MB), the current ROM is configured with 32MB PP ... and thus the question about a RAM disk is how much do I need ... and how to balance my RAM resources.

And then, how do I use it? Does this RAM disk behave like ''cache'' ... very fast but limited I/O to speed up processing of apps? What and how do I tweak .. the Registry? Etc...

(B) At this moment this topic is "beyond my paygrade" ... knowledge and involvement

.

While I have a router in my home ... I don't use my 4705 here for browsing. When away, I jump unto nodes .. Panera, airports, hotels... and logging on is typically routine. As mentioned in my review I don't do email on the 4705 ... the reason being is that many of my incoming is too large with pics and attachments.

(C) My take is that Spiaatie did not waste resources. While it may be possible to save a few K's here or there I venture that the effort vs. risk is probably not a good trade-off.

thnaks,

about ramdisk is for temp files, for fast and to not write in the ipaq file store (rom), this memory when touched launch the filesys.exe compaction thread that takes cpu at 100 % and the hx4700 is inusable in almost all roms.

ramdisk avoid to touch the rom for temp files writting them to ram, if you have 128 mb of ram. let it be at 7 mb. only for temp files and with no image associated.

this is not a cache, is only a better way to handle temp files.

another trick for guys using remote desktop wm6.5 is moving the cache (\temp) to cf card since remote desktop is a large cache.

if you have 128 mb ram you could do this in ram, with no image, and the remotely desktop should be faster and cleaner.

another is in the registry (resco registry) move the my documents folder to cf card\my documents. or ram. to not touch rom.

another is in the registry (resco registry) move the my application data to cd cappliaction data. or ram. to not touch rom.

this 2 tricks will be with image saved to cf.

sticky install?

you install and uninstall from the app itself with a button. try it. the device is much faster.

thanks. have a good day.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lmemperador:
i have been playing with alkors final and alkors 2.2rc and with 2.2rc i have finally get rid of the problem of the backup battery, mine is 100% again. no need to fix or repair with ppctechs....also 33 mb of free ram. more filesys but with the tricks is a fast and good rom too.

well i think this wm6.5 is great so the problem of the backup battery is not forever. so give it a try and dream.

to remove softbar in the today screen (2 softbuttons) i do this with nuenobar

and for plugin today iphonetoday. try them, the best so far. pics attached

any trick to avoid filesys to run is appreciated, like moving rom paths to cf card paths or ram disk. thx.

Hallo lmemperador

I see you use memmaid. To free more ram use the system tweaks in memmaid.

After using optimize i have now about 3,5 MB more RAM in my HX.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lmemperador:
thanks. i will do that.

i see that the filesys problem in this rom is more ligth than others rom's.

in other roms the device is almost unusable when the filesys takes the cpu at 90% ++

in this wm6.5 even when filesys running the device is more slow but usable.

i like it too much.

latest rom

Hi all

Not clear in my mind...I'm under Spiatiee Rom CE OS 5.2.21905 ( build 21905.5.0.93)...Is it the latest available ?

Another point..

I Know that hx4700 is ont a phone...but my PC is not a phone either but with some adequate software I can make call thru the Internet...Is the same possible with the HX

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lmemperador:
long time ago i used sj phone with a account in voip buster.... maybe that config today not works but sure there are other similar solutions.

one question, do you install all to the CF card or the SD card?? and why? maybe with problems with cf card? it is only a question, sometimes not recognizes my cf card and i have to reset the device, but is normal since it is when i launch card export to export cf card and similar apps. but i was thinking if the sd card suffers from the same or it is more the estability in the sd card.

my problem is after i launch card export or similar programs.... i quit the cable connected to my pc and not recognize my cf in a long time, need to reset.

Hi, im new in the Forum, but i already flashed some Roms.

its a realy great rom, stable and fast, but there are some things not working.

1. infrared doesnt work on my ipaq and i want to know how to change themes. it doesnt work in the way it worked in older versions.

2. is it possible to integrate the htc sense UI in this rom?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lmemperador:
i don't use infrared. use bluetooth wifi or cable instead.

for themes, download theme for wm6.5 and place into root of device or cf card or sd card. go to today config and change theme. you can contro all the color by sktools or similar programs.

for htc sense, i personally prefer iphonetoday, can be installed in cf card, and not as a plugin in today (but its behaviour is like a plugin in today since is the today itself), i use iphonetodaydesktop.exe, an exe into the folder of the application, that makes fullscreen interfaz.

you can install to the device storage becouse not writting yoo much files (you know, the filesys problem). but it is better in the storage card.

i recomend it since i prefer this interface vs sense in my htc touch diamond2 ....so, in the limited ram hx4700, it is not dude, not hesitate at all.

it is fast, not ram eater, no battery eater....it is near perfect. try it. no write too much and continuosly, you can install in device memory if you like. only writes 2 files when you change the config.

http://code.google.com/p/iphonetoday/

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=633618

if anybody wants my config for this program, tell me. it is a simply folder that overwrites the iphonetoday config with customized better one made by me, a lot of time trying things, you know. so it will be fast to see the plugin in action at full performance to make an idea in the head. because the initial config is not showing all its functionality. and it is customized to our vga resolutions, to fit more icons and more.

before using this i was using ilauncher, and before that spb pocket plus. i have tryed many interfaces.

HI

I have no experience with CF card...Everything ( mostly GPS stuff...) is installed on SD

Sorry not being able to help you out !!!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spud42:
I think people are saying to install to CF because you can use bigger cards. I have read on aximsite of people with 32Gig no problems and that the 64 Gig also is good. there was also an article about a 100Gig CF card designed for cameras but still good for ipaq. ipaq is CF2 and the theoretical limit for CF1 is 137 Gig addressable. not sure if CF2 increases that limit. but as i don't think there are cards that big it wont matter. SD has limit of 2 Gig normal cards, there are some 4 Gig NON SDHC cards around and they also work.

all my stuff is either installed to CF or internal persistant storage (eeprom/nvram)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lmemperador:
yes me too, i have a 32 cf card UDMA (see my signature) and i think all is good. but i think that the system is more fast and stable in activating the sd cards, as in the pc is a lot fast when you insert a sd card to recognice. i see that sometimes not recognizes the programs that i have in my cf, i go to my resco explorer and the cf is not there, but this is a rarely issue, the rom is almost perfect compared to the old roms with huge filesys problem. and there are less ram than in other roms but i think that handles the ram a lot better than 6.1

one question.... what sd cards of 4gb works in our hx4700? some example that works?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Downlord95:
i used infrared for remote control, a pity my tv hasn´t bluetooth, wifi or usb :D

i already knew how to change themes, but when i mark a theme in the today settings, and click ok, it doesn´t apply..

will try iphonetoday soon, although i´m sick of apple, maybe its good.....

does anyone know a sense today plugin that looks like the sense ui on android??
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lmemperador:
yes you are right

but, it is not about apple and all the stuff. i hate it. i like the ui, nothing else, is fast ansd stable and many valuable things. it is a good program, i am developer in windows apps so, i think i have opinion

and it is similar to the android ui.

maxsense or max manila is a ui similar to android too but for sense 2.5

our machines can not run properly manila or sense so...because of ram and the **** of rom memory.

yeah for the tv. ok. :) good luck

idea

i got an idea.. a good 32 GB CF card costs 80 to 90 euro (sorry, i don´t know that in usd).. a cf to sdhc adapter with an 32 gb sdhc card costsup to 40 euros, and sdhc is faster. i´ll buy and try and report
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rclksr:
The SDHC is faster, but if this adapter works with the HX4700 which I'm not sure it will or not it still will not be any faster then the CF card. You might if it works be able to use the SDHC cards in the CF slot but the "bus speed" for the CF slot will be the same. So your SDHC cards will just run slower. I think.

SD to CF adapter and our 4705's

The one that I have is ...

http://www.delkin.com/products/adapters/sd-to-cf/sd-to-cf.html

I have used it with SDHC cards up to 8GB ... works well. I did not notice speed performance ... but think whichever CF or SD socket is the slower will govern.

Other than file transfer (e.g. from SDHC via adapter to SD card in 4705) I see no benefit. In my case I use it to transfer camera images directly to my 4705.

FrankK-F
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spud42:
i also have 2 SD to CF adaptors and they do work. one of them is supposed to support SDHC but as i dont have any i cant report it woking. but i have used 2 Gig Sandisk SD in them no problems.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Downlord95:
even if its not many faster, it costs much less than a 32 GB Cf Card..

With FASTER, i meant you can get a fast sdhc card for much less money than a CF card with more than 166X. you can take it the way you want, this solution is definitely cheaper!:cool:

another question: does anyone know, how i can get this ugly iphonetoday disabled without losing the wm 6.5 today screen???

just uninstalling changes the today screen to the wm6.1 today..:confused::confused::confused:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lmemperador:
i don't understand you, uninstal it and go to settings today and choose whatever you want.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] spud42:
It is pointless in buying fast cards for either the SD or CF interface. Neither of these interfaces is capable of using the extra speed , so a 166x card is just wasting money. Check out the ipaq forums on www.mobilitysite.com a reviewer there did speed tests on the different cards and the result is that the card is not the limiting factor in transfer speed.

Yes, I think there is a program called WIMILonglife or something like it that can choose which you use. Also you could switch to a non Tmo carrier and only get Edge, since Tmo runs on 1700mhz if you run it on ATT you will only pick up Edge. Battery savings are incredible. You can do the same in reverse too. Use an ATT phone on TMO and you will only get Edge. I advise all clients that don't need video on their phones to go Edge only.
