BA WM5 System.Drawing.Bitmap Problem - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hello, im a software developer and im having an issue with a SX66 of mine upgraded to WM5. I figured someone would like to know about this, as every single WM5 upgrade for the BA i've tried still gives this error. It has to do with System.Drawing.Bitmap I thought someone could point me in the right direction, if this is a bug that can be fixed with the BA WM5 or a limitation of the actual device itself. here is the bug: (this program works fine on native WM5 devices and emulator, but has an exception when running on a WM5 BA)
I've installed all the WM5 builds from this site, TuMa, Helmi, etc All have the same problem.
Error occurs when trying to load a Bitmap from the resources folder into the program.
Code is here:
internal static System.Drawing.Bitmap Customers {
get {
object obj = ResourceManager.GetObject("Customers", resourceCulture);
return ((System.Drawing.Bitmap)(obj));
}
}
System.Drawing.Image and System.Drawing.Icon for getting resources work perfectly, its just System.Drawing.Bitmap that is having problems.

Did you install the DDraw/D3D driver? (its only a set of reg entries, actually, that switches the driver to use another one ) All the default WM5 BA bulds use ACE_DDI driver - it seems to have a lot of problems in various programs (mostly those with custom draw interfaces - try running PencilBox Deluxe - u'll see)
The driver is usually available in the package with ROM, as Extrom addon.

Answer?
Was this the answer? I tried the extra .dll but no change. Therefore wififofum, dynamo and bluesniper wont work on wm2005.
I am interesed in the solution, because the error on these programs is also related.

?? WiFiFoFum works great at my BA with WM5...

That is really weird... I installed CF2 prerequisite and then installed Wififofum2 and I get a list of error messages.... something about being out of range.
I just gave up on it, but it sure would be nice to have.

Same here i guess, and i seem to have the same rom as yours, also Helmi BA Aku.3.2 v1.3.2, but then on a qtek 9090.
I wonder, TBTB, what rom do you have, the 1.26 rom instead of the 1.32 rom? I have read that the pim and radio (?) are basicaly different. I dont want to try out when i am not sure, everything else works.

I use helmi's AKU 2.6 ROM. Remember to install DDraw driver add-on...

A different ROM
Ok then, then its worth a try i guess. I will download the 2.6 version tonight and give it a try.
Edit ----
Installed 2.6 and the extra DDraw driver, but no go. I got the same error (bitmap error) in the program 'sniper' and wififofum. Have reflashed it to 3.2 because that 1 worked fine on all other things. Maybe this problem gets solved in a newer ROM...

Any news on this problem
Kick
I was wondering if anyone has figured out a solution yet, still several programs aren't working in the WM2005 roms.

Official i-mate ROM release (1.40.176 & 1.12.00)

It's too good to believe:
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/PDA2k_WWE_14000_176_11200.exe
I'm downloading now.
Tom
39.6MB (their server is really slow today)
From i-mate site:
The details of the new ROM image are:
For the Worldwide English Build:
ROM version: 1.40.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/10/05
Radio version: 1.12.00
Protocol version 1337.42
ExtROM version: 1.40.176 WWE
I think they waited until the pros on this site figured everything out first...then they just piggy-backed on their findings. Kudos to the real pros on XDA-devel!!!

How to install this rom in Spanish Qtek 9090, i'm new and y don't now very well to change the language.
Thank you!
imate update
I just got the update from the I-mate site and am working it with the XDA tools but I'm getting a checksum errors on the radio, NK, and MS filles. Should I be using a different tool? My device is a MDA III T-mobile german flashed to english. Any Ideas???
Downloaded, installed and running. No problems....yet. I can't find a config file in the extrom in order to make some changes, but there's a setup.exe file now. Not sure what that's about.
No idea how to change the language...I'm not good enough to know that.
More later.
Tom
So far so good. A couple issues. 1) the phone off (or flight mode on) is no longer activated by the Call End button. Shame...I loved that feature. 2) I have a problem turning the phone on (flight mode off) after a soft reset. I think it may be caused by the Contacts Button addin. The only way I can turn on the phone is to go into the keypad and then turn it on. All other methods cause the system to lockup.
Tom
Temporary copy...
Until someone puts it up on xda-developers / cooks it,
a MUCH faster loading copy is at

Great!!!!!
I'm downloading it right now!!
i-mate finally released it after 1000's of unkept promises!
FINALLY!!! Here's to hoping it will be better than the Qtek version!
Again, I would like to ask why there is no config file??? I take it setup.exe has the config file built in? If any of the pros can give me some feedback as to this, I would appreciate it. I'd like to drop in several cab files incase I fubar something down the road.
Thanks,
Tom
P.S. almost 6 hours and only the "turning on the phone" problem.
yes... config is missing...
will try out some combinations .

Ture...true. Skype was fun the first couple times, but with VOIP at home, I really don't need it anymore. Still, kind of cool to show people...if you have someone that you can connect to.
Tom
Tried some combos, including, using the old config and setup files... nothing wrorks,
only thing is that any additional file found in ext rom is treated as a carrier customization file, and on selecting one file , that particular file will be installed..
also, i noticed that there is one config file in the windows directory.
Just take the Autorun.exe and config.txt from another rom, add in the cabs from the i-mate rom, and there you go.
Yeah, I will be removing Skype ASAP myself. I can understand how it could be useful, but for my purposes, it just takes up space.
The Setup.exe is way better then the config
Leave the setup the exe it is better then the config. with the config you have to site the and write a line for each cab file. the setup.exe automatically runs every cab file in the ext rom. whether you put it there or not. So when cookinh your extended rom no need to keep having to change the config.txt. The setup will run whatevers there.
You can find this new ROM at ftp upload folder hope MDAIIIUser can move to wiki , I will upload ext.ROM by tomorrow

Do I need to keep autorun.exe ? If yes, then which one old or new?
sunish, I can not imagine why it would not work. You must have made a mistake somewhere.
The WMP10 close problem still exists, which leads me to conclude that it is indeed a problem with the 1.40 CE Rom, and not something within the Extended rom muddling it up.
Has anyone seem any actual improvements with this rom over Qtek's? All of the same problems still to be in place. The extended rom has a few different (but unimportant) cabs, but that's about it.
MarcValme, I'm not so sure I agree. One of the good things about the config.txt file is that you can specify the order in which the cabs install, which does actually make a difference in a few circumstances. Food for thought.
TheLastOne,
Don't know / Can't figure out where is the problem.
No combination is working for me.
Maybe will try it again after a day or so.
Right now, after unhiding the Ext ROM, I'm installing all the programs needed by me manually.
One thing that I noticed is the increase in speed... The performance is somewhat better now...

Another patched WM5 ROM to test

I've made another patched ROM: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Blueangel/wm5_test/ba_wm5_patch3.rar
It differs from the previous ROM in the increased disk cache size and FAT write-through mode is turned off. This potentially can cause loss of data, though in my tests everything worked fine. SPB Benchmark test shows the huge increase in file read speed on my device.
After flashing the device you don't need to do hard reset, nor you'll lose any data (except for system clock settings).
mamaich, can you please tell me what software you use to edit the ROM and maybe a link to a tutorial? I'd like to take my knowledge to the next level.
Thank You,
Alex
Currently there are no tools to make custom ROMs as were for WM2003. I use hex editor (HIEW32) and IDA (www.datarescue.com) to find places I need to patch.
Thanks. I don't think I'm going to tackle that at the moment then
mamaich,
Taking the modules from the emulator image is a smart way bcz it shares the same build, but isn't it better to use the modules dumped from the universal?at least they are final.. (so far)
Universal modules I've tested would hang. There may be 2 reasons - they are dumped incorrectly, or they are designed for VGA-screen. Himalaya 1.60 files work, but they crash often. I think that this is a problem in a dumper. It dumps XIP DLLs/EXEs from memory when they are already loaded by OS and their data sections are already initialized. This cannot be fixed.
Images from emulator are dumped with dumprom tool that produces almost correct files.
I've played a bit with Himalaya registry settings and trueffs.dll driver and made a CAB that would unhide "Extended_ROM" folder and make it fully accessible.
Use this CAB at your own risk as it is not heavily tested.
Fatastic - Will try it right now
Hi Mamaich, Great work.. I will try it at ones... I have just one question, all the patch there has been made for the other ROM will they still work with this one
As soon as I have tested the new ROM I will let you know...
Re: Fatastic - Will try it right now
all the old patches should work with this rom too.

Hi Mamaich,
Can you pls help asian user by replacing the wince.nls file so that we can have Chinese setting on the BA WM5 machine?
Thanks,
Thank you very much, Mamaich, I finally got working (particulary, but still) a program that did not work before at all.
The extended rom unlocker works; still unable to install a new splash screen. Does the ext rom need to be bigger?
Edit, how do you hide it again? thanks
Edit2; i hard reset (clear storage) and its no longer showing. Hope there will be an easier way soon. Thanks

Do you mean reinstall the patch to hide it again? I know you have to reinstall after a hard reset if you want to show the ext rom again. I was talking about hiding it after you have run the patch to unhide it.

Wizard ROM ported to BA - v1.0-ToMa discussion

I think this deserves its own topic. Original post from Tuatara:
Hi everyone ...
Sorry, I've run out of time for providing you with an updated ROM which I wanted to have feature complete. I'm off on vacation tomorrow for 2 weeks, and can't keep working on it until I'm back.
I've been playing around with many things (adding/removing files, fixing the Midlet Manager, updating Camera, etc.) but I haven't got the ROM to the point where I feel it's 100% ready for others - but having said that, I've uploaded it to XDA Dev, and you're welcome to give it a try and see if it improves things for you.
This is MAINLY an update from Mamaich's v2a ROM, which does contain the Quantum Timing Patch, and the Performance Tweaks.
I've also made a few filesystem changes - predominantly removing the Midlet Manager (which wasn't working), applied all of the Performance Tweaks as per the thread (and a few more), changed the default startup elements to suit my tastes (at the moment), and added some useful programs and details to the ROM. (psShutXP, Running Programs, Shortcuts to missing elements, etc.)
The ROM is in /Uploads/Blue Angel/wm5_test/Tuatara_v2a_Custom.zip
Inside the ZIP file is the nk.nba file, along with the updated registry files (boot.rgu, default.rgu, and user.rgu) which have been merged in. I've unfortunately forgotten to include initflashfiles.dat in the ZIP, but that file is directly available from inside the ROM anyways.
The ZIP also contains a different EXTROM - only the missing files, camera, and midlet manager are needed now, and there is no warning about publisher on installation anymore. You can obviously customize the EXTROM cfg.txt file to your liking, and install anything and everything all at once.
Additionally the ROM itself still has some additional space for applications, so if you want to cook your own, there is some space available to add more.
Sorry I won't be able to answer any questions about this ROM, or handle issues on it for two weeks, so it's up to you if you want to try it (or just decompose it and look at the changes).
Enjoy, and I hope everything goes well.
Regards,
Robert.

Personal thoughts: I think this ROM gives some performance boost indeed, not much, but it is noticable. Nearly every bug is fixed now, only the bluetooth disconnect issue is left. My BA is fianlly shows itself disconnected when i take it off the cradle (with the previous ROMs, it often showed that it is still connected).
Enabling SmartDialing
Hi, I've tried this ROM & this definitely faster! Thanks!
But I can't seem to enable SmartDialilng by removing the "_" from the mfc80u.dll_ and msvcr80.dll_ files for SmartDial will start to work? These 2 files are missing from this ROM but even after I've copied these 2 files into the \Windows folder, SmartDialing still doesn't work. Any ideas?

I downloaded the new Rom and having a little trouble trying to download to my SX66. I have upgraded and downgraded the WM5 on my SX66 several times. I was wondering since the rom file is nba instead of nbf does that make a huge difference. I admit have have not messed around with my device data cause I find that a little complicated. I usaully use the MA_Upgrade cause I don't have to tweak too much. Any suggestions?

In this case, you should use the harder way. Read step 4 of the upgrading process (see wiki) to upgrade via BaUpgradeUt.exe.

The nk.nba file needs to be converted back to nk.nbf regardless of whether you use MA_Upgrade or BA_Upgrade. I use MA_Upgrade. There is an modelid entry of the USER.rgu that should be changed to PH20B1. I'm not sure whether these *.rgu files need to be copied to the \windows dir or added back into the nk.nba file. Any thoughts KTamas, i'm thinking the later.

You don't have to do anything with RGU files at all. You need to use xda3nbftool (with editfix.bat if you want) to patch the ROM.

ATT WM6 iGO not working, gx.dll problem?

I've upgraded my vodafone to the at&t wm6 and iGO 2006 plus doesn't work correctly, it loads shrunken/compressed in the middle of the screen to the point of (almot) unusable, it worked fine on the wm5.
I think the problem is with the gapi, as when I tried using Morph gear with manual driver and selected gapi the screen was also compressed in the middle, and it too woked fine with gapi on wm5.
I know the GAPI is located at the gx.dll file, I can't delete or rename that file, anyone knows how to maybe put the gx.dll file from wm5 on the wm6?
Hello
I have the same Problem with I-GO and WM6
So i flashed back to WM5 :-(
treo 750v, flashback ?
I have the same problem with my treo 750v. Moreover also my phone is now locked, whereas initially I could use ith wiht any provider. I know this was nog a smart move by now. Question is how to solve this. Anybody has a clue ?
According to palm it is not possible to flash back to WM5. However I read in previous post they recovered wm5, was this also with palm 750v ?
Hope somebody can help.
how do you perform a rollback to wm5
can some help in telling me how to perform a rollback to wm5 on the treo 750v to the 1.16 firmware version.
IGO - Treo 750 - WM6 problem
Hi there!
Could you figure out something about the IGO display problem that occurs after WM6 upgrade?
I have beed playing around with the sys.txt file changing settings in the [interface] and [gx] sections. I have also tried to replace the gx.dll GAPI library with the latest one.
No success so far.
Please, let me know if you have any progress on this!
Thanks!
Solution for running iGO on Treo 750 with WM6
Please verify if the following solution works:
- Create a file in your iGO folders called sys.txt
- The file should contain the following section:
[interface]
gxoff=1
It already worked for a few Treo users.

Hi:
I would love to try this. I am somewhat of a newbie though, can you please give further instructions? I of course understood the part about creating new file, from there I got a little lost. Do I create a text document with gxoff=1 as the actual text
in it? Sorry if this is a dumb question
Thanks!
Well, am VERY happy to report, that the excellent advice given by rmplus, worked perfectly after I figured out that I had to include the entire text (I was leaving off the [interface] portion):
[interface]
gxoff=1
in a .txt file called sys.
THANKS SO MUCH
Does anyone happen to know of a fix like this for Jewel Challenge?
I am having the same problem.
Thanks!
after i did this i am getting an error:

Hi all
I'm having exactly the same problem as gilmargolin - above. iGO 2006 worked perfectly under WM5 (one of the few programs that did). iGO Tech Support says the program is not supported on WM6, but someone must have an idea as it is only a screen resolution problem.
Cheers

Yep - verbatim. I stored the sys.txt file in the SD card iGO folder root. If I place the file anywhere else sensible, I get a hardware error. Frustrating!
That's too bad. Not to be funny, but did you make sure to include the entire text, just as it's listed?
[interface]
gxoff=1
On my first try I left off the [interface] part, and it wouldn't work.
Good Luck
Nope - nothing so simple. Sigh...
Ugh, that's too bad. Sorry I couldn't be any help.
I resolve problem Igo 2006 on Treo 750 WM6
1. Uninstall previous iGo version from Treo 750
2. Copy install files of June iGo version on the root of SD card (folders [2577] & [iGo])
3. Start autorun.exe from folder [2577]
4.Put in [Igo] folder on SD card, "sys.txt" file with

It worked perfectly!!!
Does it work really slower then how it works regularly on WM5?
On my device there are frezzes of couple of seconds.

Is there a version of Quickgps that works on HTC P3600??

Is there a version of Quickgps that works on HTC P3600??
i tried it but it gives a connection failed error
Try this one. It's like in Kaiser (have same registry values). http://4pda.ru/forum/attach/1863057/VolROM_QuickGPS_RUS_v1.00.cab
But don't forget change region setting to your own in hklm\software\htc\quickGPS
Oh, i forgot, it's russian version. There are two mui in windows directory: Gps_aux.dll.0419.mui and quickGPS.exe.0419.mui. So rename it to 0409 for working in wwe rom.
added.
PS: this version downloads xtra.bin file which used by qualcomm based devices (Kaiser, Polaris, Diamond) with GPSOne chip. I think it will work on Trinity (also GPSOne chip) but we don't complete all tests yet
In fact, the region settings in the registry is RU...but what it should be set? then, i renamed the .mui from 419 to 409...but i still get very nice russian interface! Could you please explain it in more details? thanks indeed in advance.
but, most importantly....do you observe any improvements in the fix?

You can get QuickGPS app which you like (English or other). All necessary registry values in attached cab! So, we only "teach" QuickGPS download right file.
Region settings=Country name. Russia=RU, Italia=IT, France=FR, Belgium=BE etc.
I don't complete all tests... BTW, i will say that it work (sometimes). Ex: I do HR, install QGPS, get fix, run GPSinfo, but there is no satellites listed and i get standard fix (very long, apx 200 - 230 sec).
Ex2: At the evening i trying one more time. Same schema: I do HR, install QGPS, get fix, run GPSinfo and i see that all satt in their positions. Fix get in 45-47 sec. I don't understand why.
Syncronisation with PC back up FIX? Any ideas?
(and sooo sorry for my English)
Thanks guys for your great help
I actually got quickgps to work by installing 2 versions
the first is the 760kb then i install over it the 238kb version and then restart and it works like magic
now i can get a cold fix in few seconds
I look this two cab files. First (larger) identical to my russian cab, but english version. Second look like a cab for sirf based devices. setup.xml in it have many "waste" registry keys... and i see that it reconfigure gps com port... i'm right?
Please, make HR, get fix and tell us: do you see sattelites in their positions after that?
Hi G-Max, I have just installed the two files; how do I "make HR, get fix" to see if it works?
On registry the right country code shows. but in folder 0, 1 and 2 the default region is not set; could be the problem?
Cheers
