I don't want to upgrade my ROM, i don't want to tweak the registry, I don't want to do anything that requires anymore than executing a file.
Is there anyway possible I can download a simple file that will activate BT Stereo Audio using my T-Mobile MDA (US version) and Motorola HT820 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones?
Greatly appreciated if someone can help me with this...
nope...I tried with the same headphones. I had to upgrade to 2.17 (unofficial ROM) but have not had any problems at all....
Try searching ...
Let me help you out a little here. Sometimes there's a lot of crap in these forums, but the good stuff's in here too. You are looking for an upgrade to get A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) to get stereo over Bluetooth. Try a search on "Wizard A2DP", make sure your search contains all terms, and at the bottom set "Display Results as" to topics. Among the search hits you'll find a topic called "a2dp addon for wizard"
Here's a direct link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=48535&highlight=wizard+a2dp
After about a dozen posts, someone named zoki posted an attachment (you must be logged in as a registered user of this website to see the attachments!) for the A2DP upgrade as a single cab file. I remember reading somewhere that this works on the stock ROM, but I'd highly suggest reading through all posts in this thread to see how others faired using this attachment. Download the attachment, copy it to your wizard using ActiveSync, click on the cab file once its on your Wizard, I think a soft reset is needed somewhere in there, do a special dance for extra effect, and you should be fine. Good luck
I'm pretty sure that you can use the ZokieA2DP .cab file as discussed above.
However, I strongly suggest you try one of the 2.17 ROMs also. These are stable and so much faster that you'll think you're running a 400 Mhz processor.
I have the 8125 but am a T-Mobile customer running Xelencin's 2.17 ROM. This did not have A2DP necessary for Stereo BT.
Before upgrading, my 8125 was so slow I almost sent it back. Now I absolutely love the devive. I almost never have to soft reset. I'm running tons of apps.
Make sure you:
1. register and log into this site to see all links etc.
2. Have your device fully charged.
3. Use Lokiwiz to unlock the SIM and CID. Instructions can be found on this website.
4. Use a 2.17 ROM depending on your carrier and what features you want. For Cingular, use one of Summiter's ROMs. For T-Mobile, use one of Xelencin's ROMs
5. If the ROM doesn't have A2DP, add the Zokie .cab as discussed.
It's all quite simple and very rewarding. Performance is excellent.
So with the new bluetooth fix, I confirmed everyones comments where the phone turns on when the bluetooth is either turned off or on.
I am currently using Ivan .. an older variant. I used this version over Tuma because it doesn't have the added software that I hardly use.
Does anyone have a working extraction of the DeviceLock Cab file for use with the blueangel (Siemens SX66)?
personally i sue Mortsaver, its a great program once you configure it.
I was wondering if there was someone who had the Wizard Style Device Lock.
I found that the MortSaver doesn't work as good as I had hoped.
When AKU3.2 gets stable I will make a new Rom, or maybe there will be some adjustments to my 2.26.10.2 Roms if someone discovers something really cool like reducing the PagePool for more free Ram.
But for now, I would like to know what you people think what programs are missing in my Roms.
I DO NOT add programs to it that are used only by some people, I would only like to add programs that are used by almost everyone in the community!
For now, I am thinking of adding the following programs:
For sure:
- .NET Compact Framework 2 (although it requires about 5MB on Main Memory)
- Signed_CameraPatch_ov9650.sa.cab (definitely better then the standard camera driver!)
- MMS Folder CAB file
- 2.47.11 Radio Rom (a lot of people say that this Radio Rom performs better then the Cingular 2.25.11 Radio Rom, read the thread about this Radio Rom here)
Maybe:
- SMSDRFix (SMS Delivery Report Fix), because I use it A LOT (and you all know...until know I build my Roms the way I like them the most!)
- Intent Midlet Manager (although I do not use it myself!)
- PPCContactsMgr 1.2 (for selecting multiple contacts, on my existing Roms there is also a plug-in for "Save as First/Last Name", so also this one looks useful to me)
- Null Keyboard (avoids keyboard pop-up, if you don't use it you also will never notice it, it's not a program, just an option for your keyboard settings)
- SipChange (to set a default keyboard)
What do you guys think?
Regards,
Molski
how about including the cab file that adds mms folder as well?
MMS is generally pretty carrier specific. That might be problematic give that Molski's ROMs are carrier agnostic.
well, the one from molski.biz just gives a generic sample server settings, i think if we can manage to unlock our CID, i wouldn't be so difficult to alter the mms server settings =)
thanks for listening=)
is there any flash player?!? if positive that's a good stuff to be added...

The MMS folder installation has nothing to do with MMS settings, you still need to install (or add manually) specific settings for your provider.
This is a good one, I will add it to the list of apps.

What about WM5torage? That way there's no need for Activesync or looking for a miniSD to SD adapter and a card reader...
At least I use that program a lot... Don't know how useful it is for other people...

In fact I use WM5torage a lot also, but I developed a little CAB for WM5torage and DeviceLock mapped to the VoiceDial button, because that's the way I use it. The file is available on www.molski.biz, I will copy and paste some info of the cab file here:
---------
This program installs the full versions of WM5torage 1.60 and DeviceLock,
including shortcuts for both programs and the DeviceLock Control Panel.
It remaps DeviceLock to hardware button 4, the VoiceDial button (single press).
It remaps WM5torage to hardware button 4, the VoiceDial button (long press/hold).
I made this program because I never use the VoiceDial or Record functions of the button, but I often use DeviceLock (and hate it to have it as an item on the Today Screen) and WM5torage and wanted some quick shortcuts to it (but not on the Today Screen...).
---------
Regards,
Molski
p.s. So I don't think I will put it in my Roms, simply because I would wreck my own installation and have to use a work around myself for WM5torage, so sorry.
How about overclocking, I can't imagine using it as is.

Then I will add BatteryStatus, because that is what I use to run my Wizard @240Mhz.

Hi Molsi,
What I would like is a complete *clean* rom as if it came out of the HTC or QTek departments. Might there be a version like that too? Ah, asjeblieft...?
Many thank for you work so far, keep up the good work!
Cheers,
Cacti
pls dnt add OC apps in the ROM,bec some of us use omapclock plus,better to have our own choice of choosing,better put it in the EXT_rom so that incase they dnt like it,they can easily erase it. also if you can add TALKING ALARM,this way better, shouting what's the time already, and SMARTKEY too(oh! i forgot,this already putted in the ROM 2.26.102.
so when can we XPECT the AKU 3? hehehe
Molski first of all thanks for the hard work and great support.
I don't think that you must put any software on the rom.
Everybody has there own "need".
If people want software on it they download it.
The power of the rom is the speed, so please keep it that way.
Thanks (bedankt)
You got a good point there!
Maybe I just will create an "extra" Extended Rom with a few apps in it that are must-have. It's no big deal of flashing an new Extended Rom after a Rom upgrade onto your device
But I am sure that I will add 3 new cab files to my new Roms...the 3 cabs listed in the 1st post (and also maybe smsdrfix, cause I also always deliver my Roms with SMS Notification on and for that little setting smsdrfix is a must-have app ).

You're right...I don't add overclocking because some people do not use it and if they use it there are several ways to do it, so people have to just install this manually.
Talking Alarm is not so useful for me, I am dutch and I doubt that Talking Alarm says the time in dutch
And in the morning I am too sleepy to understand english
When I am starting to read things about a stable and 100% working AKU3.2 Rom (on every AKU3.2 Rom I tested my WiFi does not connect to my router with WPA-PSK/TKIP) I will take my hands on it

when will we see real 3.2 AKUs for wizard? As far as I know, the 3.2 roms here are actually 2.26 roms with 3.2 features grafted in...

Yeah...you are right...I think we just will have to wait until T-Mobile or Cingular releases an AKU3.2 Rom (without bugs...).

Thanks part
First big thanks to mamaich for his excellent romediting tools, thanks to bepe for the original idea of cooking roms through romkitchen, thanks to itsme for hes brilliant perl scripts and the help he provided me, also bigger thanks to Helmi_c who helped me a lot and continiues to help me (thanks bro without your help I would never create such rom), thanks also to indra9110 for providing me these nice icons, and the last but not least thanks to www.xda-developers.com comunity, it helped me learn everything i know about PDA-Phone devices!
EDIT MDAIIIUser
I have moved the files to a safe place (and changed the links)
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/BA_WM5/Shipped_Extracted_Updates/xplode
I Will test now!
Installed and running without major problems, good for testing. I have not added any cabs as off yet. Great work xplode.
AKU 3.5
wow...
another new rom..
already have downloaded the files..
will try later..
great work xplode!!!! =)
Must we apply the cabs in the Fixes folder in the FTP?
Do you know how to make convertion from your rom to Himalaya?
I v flashed but stoped on 4 colors screen.
I tried again, it's ok now.
I've just updated to this ROM from Helmi AKU3.2 v1.3.2 and very impressive. I like the sounds.
Have tested the WLAN. I noticed that under "Wireless Lan", the signal strength bar isn't working. It is blank. The default taskbar signal strength works though.
Will be trying the Bluetooth with my Holux236 GPS after this.
*edit* - Now I can't seem to turn my WIFI on. Will investigate if it is caused by the cabs I installed from the Cabs folder on Ftp.
WLAN... solved.
Ok, on first time device on, to turn on WIFI, you need to go to Wireless LAN to turn on WIFI first. After that, you can start using CommManager to control WIFI on/off.
If you leave WIFI on during soft reset, your wifi will be on after soft reset and you can still use CommManager to control WIFI on/off.
But, if you leave WIFI off during soft reset, then you can't turn WIFI on anymore whether via Wireless LAN switch or CommManager switch regardless how many soft resets.
Anyone can confirm this? Or rather provide a solution? Did I miss out something?
*edit* - Nevermind.. haha. It is working now somehow but my device is on fresh hard reset.
I can't seem to get Wireless Stereo/A2DP to work. I've checked the obvious entries in the registry and the dll files, no joy.
cant wait to test
downloading....thank you very much.
Has anyone managed to make Smart Dial v2.2 work?
guys when i double click the file and after it flashes , do i need to press all three buttons like before and do the 3 options thingy?
or just flash and will reset automatically.
flashing from Helmi's 3.1 ROM

Yeah, thats right man. Its the right trick to get WIFI worked without having to SR the device. My experience told me that It would take 2 times turning on WIFI on the Wireless Lan settings, then go ahead to the CommManager. It will definitely work, at least in my situation.
I've noticed two thingys,
1. When connected to GPRS the little 'G' doesn't show up.
2. What happened to the newer version media player that was in AKU 3.3
There was no newer version of WM it was skin which have problems with video playback, the picture was shifted
WLAN - as you all know since we first seen Comm manager WLAN is turning on by Wireless Manager and then you can control it trough Comm Manager
About A2DP i have not compatible headset to test it i have mono one
There is no need to install fixes for this rom, you can try only those which removes comm manager icon and screen rotate icon from tray
I've installed quite anumber of basic apps:
SBSH Ilauncher
Pocket Informant
Pocket Music (Freeversion)
PhoneAlarm
Garmin Que
GPSGate
SPB Diary
Resco File Explorer
TCPMP
They all work fine up to now. The only thing that doesnt work is Smart Dialing which i miss so much. Out of curiousity, how do you guys usually do away without Smart Dial? I feel that opening the Contacts page is time consuming and inefficient. Not suitable for driving. Any easier way?
Hello, i am using the WM6 ROM by Futureshock (V2) on my Mteor. With WM5 it was possible to add a ringtone by pressing enter several seconds on a mp3 or mide file. Then it was selectable from the ringtones list. Now, TCPMP is assosiated with media files and this procedure no longer works. How can i add a ringtone under WM6?
Many thanks.
Rene
Hi,
firstly i would say you should use the new wm6.1 ports...
and when you want to add an mp3 file to ringtone list just copy the mp3 to my documents...
you can also made a my documents folder structur on sd card too... i have it so... after every reflash i have all my ringtone and pictures back in system without to do anything more...
Many thanks. Sometimes it is more simple than expected.
I'd like to try the 6.1 ports, but i am using a screenreading software to access the phone, because i am blind. Afaik this software is not yet compatible with 6.1. So i'm afraid i have to wait for an update.
I still can't play midi files with the WM6 V2 ROM. Windows media comes up with an error "source filter could not be found". Is there a solution?
Thanks again.

just give 6.1 a try... its not so different from wm6 ...
wm6 port i think is discontinued because of wm6.1... theres no need todo on wm6 more...
also its booting up too slow... and bugfixin all this isn't worth effort...
the latest WM6.1 port works fine here, even with Mobilespeak (my ScreenReader). The only thing i have noticed so far is: The sounds for alerts, key clicks etc. are enabled but not working.
Thanks again.
Rene
they should be disabled by default...
try to disable and reenable it...
