And Molski, hope you dont mind if so i will discontinue out of respect
I have spent the last few late nights taking molski's rom and modifying the extended rom to include the cingular settings. Would anyone else be interested in this rom? This does include all the popular reg hacks (wifi 80211g, a2dp, etc)
This is what i have so far...
Removed:
goodlink
expressmail
replaced Moslki splash screen with cingular
Added:
.net compact framework v2
A2dp improvement reg hack (edited with the right reg key)
Molski performance tweeks left in the rom
Omapclock and Omapclockplusv0.0.4
I also added Wififofum, hitchiker, and 1800message.com's phone call recorder and their pmvault program which will back up sms, pics, contacts, call list, etc. But those are all things i wanted and can remove them...
I have been using it for a few days now and it works great
please give me your thoughts and suggestions, if you want it i will post it on the ftp, if not then i will just enjoy it all to myself
If it is all good with Molski then I say it would rock!!!
Please post.....
since then i have been in contact with another person who has started a similiar project with molski.. this other person and i are working on it... hopefully if all goes well we should have something within the next few days.. we will keep you posted!
please please please
post the rom with cingular custom.
What's the soup de jure? That's the soup of the day!... mmm that sounds good...I'll have that!
Cant wait to try it out
Change is good!
Change is good!
please please do tell where this is being hosted!!!! I think this is an excellent releae to say the least!!!!
its not posted yet.. i had my own personal version that might have had some junk people didnt want, i am now working with Dr. P as we speak on this.. as soon as we get the bugs worked out we will post it on the ftp and let you know
just an update
we are 90% of the way there.... almost all bugs have been ironed out... Here is what is being added:
zoA2DP
ammar_Wireless_Today_Plugin
BT_COM_PORT
TRE
total-comander
WiFiFoFum2
Omapclock_and_Omapclockplusv0.0.4
Wireless.Scanner-Hitchhiker0.4b1
SearchToday
TodayAgenda_PPC
NETCFv2
These here are the 1800message.com programs
PPC2003PMVault *this is an online text/contacts/pics/call log back up
SPWM5CallRec *and this is the call recorder
we have also removed cingular Xpress mail, Goodlink and some other cingular garbage... But it DOES keep the MEdia Net and My Isp settings, as well as MMS settings
awesome if its stable... please post when done..
thanks
so far its solid!!! well that is for at least the 8125... anyone with a different wizard using cingular wanna give it a go? Im just adding the finishing touch's now... and will test it throughout the night.. Im hoping for a tomorrow release..
Is it going to be possible to remove the programs that you listed? Like the Wififorom one, and others? I have no need for those and don't like having them installed on the phone. besides that I am ver excited about this. Does this also remove the cingular branding?????????
I think that there might be two versions when we're done. shogunmark is doing this one with me "of council", critiquing and rendering some advise. So far it's really looking nice. Once done with this we'll probably create a more basic, streamlined version. Molski created the version I've been running with various requests and it's quite nice. It's been two weeks or so and it's quite stable. I've added my own additional reg tweaks to the DP-Molski Extended ROM and they've been imcorporated into the shogunmark ROM along with other's we've agreed on.
Hang tight as I think that it'll be worth the wait.
I also think 2 versions will be the way to go... one 'bare bones' version that includes just a bare version of windows + registry tweaks (802.11g etc.), and a more complete version with all the goodies (wififofum, omapclock, etc).
I for one am excited!!!!
shiiiiiit... i could have done a basic one days ago :shock: but let me finish this project and i will create a stripped down one with the cingular settings and the basic reg edits... would you all possibly want the new omap clock plus in that as well?
I think the stripped down version with the tweaks would be a great feature!! I hate hard resetting mine and then having to do all the tweaks!
well ill put my 2 cents in just because I am interested in this build.
omapclock is such a small and simple program that probably every wizard owner uses, so I say include it in both releases.
also (and pardon me if this is not possible with our device...) will this ROM (complete version) include a2dp?
thanks again buddy!!!
Theres like 6 threads with like 50 pages each...and i've read almost all of them....but my question is which WM6 of crossbow are you using? So far i know theres
1. Chinese version
2. Stock leaked one
3. PDAViet 1
4. PDAViet 2
Which ones are you guys using and why? THanks for the responds guys
None, they're buggy, obviously unfinished and of dubious origin.
im using pv2...it has nice little addons to it, and it seems to be smoother...

But that's what makes them so FUN!
i totally agree with you guys. Thats what makes these roms fun. i just got tired of trying to decide which rom to mess with and all that fun crap. i just wanted to see what fellow modders were doing with their roms and what they learned and what they have accomplished. i see that on PDAViet 2 for some reason my screen keeps turning on. and sometimes my softkeys wont work. does any one by anychance have a solution to thi stuff? Thanks

Agreed.
I tried them out, but they were pretty buggy and impossible to make everything run as smoothly as WM5.
I need stability and a smooth running PPC. Not some glitchy buggy unreliable WM6.
Plus WM6 adds zero true improvements. There is just no reason to use these pre-release versions.
I hope they get WM6 fixed up correctly before actually releasing it to the public or WM6 is going to suffer a horrible fate.
Need another option: My own cooked version
I cooked up my own version, modeling it after Risidoro and Molski's, adding all the cool TSK files, camera themes, ringtones, Ris' network tools, Adobe Acrobat LE. mbutton in ROM and in startup, Total Commander in ROM, enabling the ZIP tool, added traylaunch and battery status and adding in the faria camera fix.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks to Risidoro, Molski and Faria for the great tutorials. I spent hours working on this to get it working just like I want it.

Yes. Sorry. It is the Orwell, I guess, one.
I just read about editing the HV files, so now my little cab file that I run afterward to add in MMS, GPRS, etc, will be integrated into the ROM directly, along with Midlet Manager, TRE and whatever else I can inject into it.
yeah i had to put all my internet and gprs settings my self from my other 8125. so far i like the way it looks and its running pretty good now that i took some stuff off the start up folder like tray launch and smartskey. dont really need them. i have pocketplus running just fine on there just like batterystatus and today plugin.

Can you share some experience about editing HV files? I can't find any sources for it. Thanks.
Well. Let me first say this.
Apparently what PDAViet has done to Faria's hard word and effort can simply not be justified imho.
To be honest I have PDA Viet2 installed. But that was before I read what they did with Faria's hard work. And I simply don't have time now to switch to another WM6 rom, otherwise I'd installed Faria's latest and greatest Rom 3.3.
Nevertheless I must say that the PDA Viet2 rom works fine on my MDA. Even my 4gb minisd works flawlessly (although i'm still looking for some tweaks to improve read/write performance with it). They also put some security to it with removing the windows update option (which apparently causes trouble to some users).
But, to stay loyal to Faria, just because that man really does great work, whenever there's another rom (a better one/more complete one) and I have some more time, I immediately switch to another rom.
I love WM6, on my device it runs so much more smoother than WM5 did, and after running the MMS cab patch, i'm fully sorted. All of my software work on it perfectly, it's extremely fast (i haven't even had to over clock it like i used to do at 240mhz).
I now want to really get into understanding how to tweak and create my own Roms.

I think we could get better results if people knoew how to identify which WM 6 rom they have.
I have orwell
the other day I downloaded 1.Crossbow_Underground_Edition.exe but I am not certain if this is updated
WM6 Upgrade on Wizard
Hey Guys I ran the WM6 orwell update and it did its thing, but when it rebooted it was still WM5 (blank no user data) do I have to do anything special after I disconnest?
Hello everyone.
I installed psShutXP v0.29 and it is working great (except for Turn off device option). When I was testing different ROMs, one came with a very nice skin (black/white I think with a snow flake for "reset" or something like that). I can't seemed to find it anyone. Does anyone happened to have it extracted and can tell me where to put it to make it work? Or maybe someone has a cab with that skin already merged. I would really appreciate it, just want to customize my setting to match the theme! Thanks.
Got it. Thanks ASerg.
If anyone else wants a better skin for psShutXP, check this file out. Simple extract to Program Files/psShutXP folder! Enjoy!
Hey Guys, I'm fairly new to XDA but I love all the work you guys do! I thought I'd try and contribute something too, so here it is!
Here are two animated gifs I made (one customized for myself , the other for xda) along with the sound file. You can download the files individually if you want to install manually, but the cab file I made should work otherwise. Have fun and let me know what you think!
Nice work! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the work. Do we need anything specific to run this? WM 5,6,6.1?
I made it for my 6.1 rom, but I believe it should work for at least WM 6, as that is what my tilt originally came with.
Did anyone find if the cab works on other devices?
Works Fine!!
Loaded cab file .....soft reset.......works fine....on my kaiser
Nice work! Thank you for sharing.
I'm curious if it would be a easy task to modify the initials to match my own "SBB" ? I would bet others would like to do this also. Thank you!
Unfortunatly it is not an easy task to edit the letters. However, I did use gimpshop to make this animations. If you have downloaded gimpshop (freeware photoshop like app) you can open the gif in gimp and edit it there. I use the built in rippling animation to make the frames with rippling letters. Once again though, this is not an easy task as it is quite difficult manuevering in gimpshop. But that is why I included a xda one, so everyone could use that and show off our great site
I just noticed that on some ROM's the animation is interrupted by the windows mobile screen flashing in the background. Does anyone know how to fix this so that the animation is smoother?
Thanks.
Nice work listing im a newbie here, can u amke me something like this plzzz. Instead with the name Ricodemus. I was in the Marines I love the sword sound, can you add the USMC emble also? I Know it not easy, I'd buy you Coffee for your efforts, or donate. Please contact me or email at yahoo at same. Ur stuff is Great. I have the tilt and it worked beautifully.
Hi all, here's something I've been working on these past two days.
I got tired of GTX Sense, and installed SPB MS, along with DOC3000 and Mskip's excellent Droid Pro+. Then I decided to give my device a little facelift, and, being a fan of pretty much everything post-apocalyptic, I came up with this.
The cab file will install the first taskbar (all it does is install the image, no color change or icons). I was going to make cabs for all three, but I'm having some trouble with my computer, so... What you can do is install the cab, rename the image you want to PAtaskbar.png, use Total Commander to move the file to \windows, and reset... You might want to do that because the first one doesn't look good in landscape (anybody know whether different images can be used for portrait and landscape?).
And a little extra, if anybody has some ideas, on how to improve it or something, here's the PSD file: http://www.mediafire.com/?d17mcr6t1vsccsw
BTW, the graphics were shamelessly ripped from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and reworked/adapted, and here's what it looks like on my rhodium: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9918676&postcount=864
Anyways, hope you like it
