DUE to the first thread been turned into another unlocking one I had no choice but, to close the project.
But I feel that it is unfair to the people that respect my work an appreciate it.
The response to the rom has been overwhelming!!!! I never see this kind of response to a rom since the blue angel days
once again this thread been trashed with crap.rom is no longer available.next realease is pending.got better things to do with my time.plus time job is takeing most of mine time now and with x-mas coming,gonna get worst. when im ready i will contact the testers.no more tester are neede at the moment.
if you experience power-ups with push email folow.this;
now for users that have the device powering up when push email activated,i have been doing some testing;
i setup my push email [web2mail]
now i have setup the device security with a password,so when it comes from stand-by,will ask for it,
then a setup devicee lock in batterie status to also lock the device [see pictures]
what can i say i works fine.
when i receive an email from my server ,it notefys-me with the email sound ,but the device does not power up as reported.
now when the device lock time out is up,the device wakes up to lock itself
and the powers down in 1-2 seconds -this is normal in this rom atleast.
how to the date in the top right corner ?
use registry wizard[included in the rom] to remove the date or time
to use default clic sound download the file below
remove the .zip from the file name as it's just a cab...thanks dr.p
whats is in my rom?
unlcoking problem
people don't get it and it is really easy to unlock CID if they really follow the threads that there are. This thread says it clearly what u do and it is really easy to do it. Most of the people have update tool problem they can solve that with wizard_ROM update utility_noID file on the FTP site of the XDA. They can just put it to the unpcaked faria RC1 file and run it after unlocking CID. Two steps simple and cristle clear !!

Just wanted to thank you for everything so far. Loving the ROM and will continue to provide Beta feedback as much as possible.
hey faria, awsome job i wish i had half your skills. your latest rom has been exeptional, the only issue i had was when i overclocked it the screen would intemitently turn on, oh and the battery meter never went below 57%. any help or sugestions would me much appreciated.

You my requested the rom from me but I will select you according to your posts.

LOL! So you will select us according to whether or not we have something intelligent to say. Well, I am about to put your 8mb rom on my MDA (right now using the RISIDRO rom loaded on top of the t-mobile official 2.26 rom) and will let you know what I think. I will be sure to say something smart. I will just blow you away with my intelligence and technical prowess.
I would like to see some articles on the page-pool size thing though. That's a new one to me. Check my post in the original thread (#419). Anyone wanna point me in the right direction? I can only find how-to's and not any reasons as to why one would do this...
So uh ... how do I unlock my phone? I did not get any keys. Are they on the stylus somewhere? I gotta go download a computer.
Portuguese Support
I faria since i`m new in this all new stuff of cooked rooms and extended roms etc; all that i can do is asking how can i help you on your journey, just tell me how i can donate you something for you to continue the great job that i have the oportunity to see in this forum i will be pleased to help with anythig to honor your Portuguese contribute to the XDA, continua o bom trabalho e ficarei a aguardar pelo "lançamento" da tua nova room EXCELENTE TRABALHO.
well I told you I would let you all know if there was a difference that I noticed between the 8mb and 12 mb with the voicemail issues and in-call issues.
with the 12, sometimes in a call, buttons would become usless and had to soft reset to hang up. same thing with the 8.
with the 12, voicemail icon would not go away after voice mail deleted. havnt seen that with the 8 yet.
other than that, speed is good in both, and everything works like a charm.
Jeb
I hope your donations will provide you with at least the ability to take a night off and go to dinner or maybe get a massage to help you forget the newbie questions. I will be sending a donation as well. You have provided an outstanding ROM that has rivaled (and beaten) multi-m(b)illion dollar companies core and "upgrade" roms.
To all those that wish to ask newbie questions, leave faria's threads dedicated to the enhancement and ultimate release of one of the best ROMS for a PPC phone alone.
The least you could do is create your own thread and post your questions there.
I hope I may be considered for future testing granted my moderately new questions have not been classified as non rom related. If so, I will go study some more and apply to faria U at a later time
G4s and the ROMs
Faria, I think I am onto something here. From what I am reading in the posts, and from what you and I discussed the other day about my extended rom not loading correctly, I think and G4 with IPL/SPL ABOVE 2.17.0001 have a greater degree of security. Again, reading the posts in your other thread, it seems a handful of G4 owners could indeed install your rom fully, while the other half would only get the OS. Correct me if I am wrong, but I am starting to see a pattern.
First and foremost I would like to thank Jose for all the time and effort that he put into making this great rom. If and when you come to NYC I am taking you out and getting you twisted VIP style! But enough ass kissing and lets get to bussiness.
I have had very minor issues.
The mms did not work for me with the settings that I had from tmobile USA. I did get them to work when I got some of the settings cabs from the 2.26 custom extended rom. I did run the auto config that was included to set the network settings.
After installing all the software extras that was included to check how they worked, I have not been able to keep the phone off. When I say off I mean the backlight staying off when nothing is running. I have tried using the XP feature to turn the light off but it doesnt keep it off either. This could be something that I did so I may just reflash and install everything one by one to see where the problem comes from.
I also have noticed some signal problems but I think that was more of me installing those cabs from the 2.26 rom
Any help is appreciated.
one issue i have noticed is right before the device wakes up it white screens for 2-3 seconds then loads the today screen.. i dont know if this is a issue as i have not seen it really affect anything but i figured id let u know.

i mean your AKU 3.2 RC1.
Let me tell you the whole process that i followed to have a
better understanding:
1. ROM before upgrading:
-IPL 2.25

-Radio 02.47...

-OS 2.26.10.2
3.The proplem that i encountered:
when ROM upgrade finished, the device automatically
restarted and asked me if i wanna run the autorun files
(the installation of Ext_ROM, i know that) and i certainly choosed Yes.
The installation process went smoothly to its nearly end then a
error dialog box poped up with :"/Windows/autoconfig.exe doesnt exist"
,the only thing i could do is to choose "ok".The device restarted and
what i find after that is a new OS 2.26.10.2 without the EXt_ROM.
I downloaded both 8MB and 12MB pool versions but it gives me
the same result for both.
Please help me me on :
1.How to correct those problems.
2.How to upgrade my SPL and IPL to the newest versions?I stay the same(2.25) even when i upgraded the device to 2.26.
Thank you very much for any help.
Was your phone CID unlocked prior to the install? It seems that you have a G3 so the other thread on unlocking should have been done first. (You may have done this prior to another ROM but I am to tired to think about that...) Good luck!

Urgent helps needed!
So i bricked my Cingular 8125!
I just wanted to upgrade my ROM to the newest AKU 3.2 from Faria.
I did ungrade and errors arised as i described above.
I was told that the fone hadn't been CID unlocked.
I did as what described in lowikiz
-downgrade the rom,
-run enablerapi.cab on my device
-run lowikiz 0.2b
-choose CID unlock
Restarted the fone, what i saw was:
IPL 1.01
SPL 2.25
GSM 2.47.11
OS 3.0.0
There're only two things fulfill me,that's GSM and the OS.I wanted the
IPL and SPL should be 2.26 or later version.
What i did then :
-Downgrade again (hoping that i forgot to SIM unlock)
-run enablerapi on my device
-run lowikiz 0.2b
-choose unlock
And when the fone restart.
What i saw was:
IPL 1.01
SPL 1.01
GSM 1.x.x
OS 1.05.x
when the installation completed, i upgraded the ROM again to AKU3.2
everything went smoothly until it finished.The fone restarted and what i saw was:
IPL 1.01
SPL 1.01
<blank, no GSM version, couldnt believe that>
OS 3.0.0.0
the device kept running until the installation completed.
It restarted again and stopped running.What i can see now is just
nice background and blinking (waited for nearly 15 mins but no futher responses)
IPL 1.01
SPL 1.01
OS 3.0.0.0
It couldn't get further.
I think i bricked my Cingular 8125.
So could you helpers, experienced users help me with that?
Can i fix it?Or can HTC fix it?
Thank you very much!
Hello faria. I said eariler that this was a great rom. I think i have found a minor annoyance, i wouldn't call it a bug. It is related to spb time at least I'm pretty sure it is. I get the calnot.exe error every now and again and the cannot locate the spbtime.exe on reset. Its strange everything still works as it should. I think someone else had this problem in the other thread. I thought is was because spb time was loaded on the mem card and the fact that windows is sometimes late in loading it. So my next step was to move it to the sys mem. Same problem, I guessing it is on spb to fix this. I was probably not designed to work well with aku 3.2. Other than I that i could not find any real problems, except one time i uninstalled spb time and i oculd no longer sync. easliy fixed by hard reset no prob. I'm using 12mb pool. I also used your registry tweak program and set all the cache to the highest settings. Do you think that is a bad idea for this pool size. Have noticed some slow down in performance i don't know if the two are related.
thanks for the great rom again man!!

nice try.but no dice
Hi; I tried to unlock my G3 wizard and now I think I am very stupid.
First, I get CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe and upgrade wizard, on wizard was IPL 1.xx SPL 2.xx, GSM also anything, but OS nothing. Blank line. Then that booted to bootloader.
So I tried RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE.exe, it wrote IPL 2.26, SPL 2.26 and OS nothing. Then i tried t-mobile rom, but it didn't work, because "only upgrade".
I tried through CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe, so now I have IPL 1.01, SPL 2.26, GSM something, OS nothing (blank line) and I think I'm stupid.
Any ideas? Thank you...

Make sure that you have unlocked the device correctly. Read Dr. P's sticky:A Definitive Guide to Unlocking G3 Wizards and also the wiki.
I know that i haven't unlocked my wizard The problem was before that I started unlock... OS disappeared after first flash.

Reflash with the Button 1.05 Rom, if the IPL & SPL don't match after the first flash then flash a second time with the same Rom, that should fix IPL/SPL problems.
Now Unlock your device BEFORE flashng a 2.x Rom.
Dr P's Sticky Thread covers this, please read it throughly..

Hm, in point 7 - Connect your device and cancel the partnership. (You're a guest )
I can not connect my device, because I haven't OS on Wizard, he boots only to bootloader (with IPL 1.01 and SPL 2.26). I can flash from PC, but then I never have OS od MDA.
I read the "A Definitive Guide to Unlocking G3 Wizards" many times, but I dont's see any solution...
Maybe I have strange wizard
When all else fails, flash an official Rom from your Service Provider. That should get you back to working order then proceed with the unlocking from there.

When I say "Connect your device" I mean to connect it to the USB cable. Two paragraphs after item 17 I address this issue. You don't need an OS, just be in the bootloader screen. I've personally had this exact same thing happen where all I had was the IPL and SPL with nothing else. Remove battery from PDA and then put it back in. Make sure you reboot your PC.
Good luck.

good idea, but it doesn't work; because "upgrade only" - My originally T-Mobile ROM is only 2.21, so I can't flash it
17. My suggestion, take for what it's worth, is to download and install the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM This will give you a strong 2.26 IPL and SPL to work with.

But I can flash MOLSKI ROM with 2.26 IPL/SPL. Should I?
==
For everyone: Thanks for your time, really. But I'm confused, I read all, nothing helped.
Let's say: "Michalek is very stupid, we'll write him "what to do" step by step" ) something like "You asshol, connect your mda in bootloader to pc via usb, then download this, run it, then ...".
Because manual doesn't work for me, probably.
New year, new way I tried to flash today - and - i see OS, I'm in OS, I'm going to unlock wizard based on Unlocking Tutorial ;-)
I don't know, why it was successful. I tried reboot yesterday for four times, but it not helped. Only today.
I'm the happiest man on the planet And, "I've seen PROBABLY every situation with a G3 device here." - it is TRUE
Thank you for your time.

Good to hear you are making progress, let us know how things turn out!

-Michalek- Well that's wha we like to hear! The 1.05 works great as a disaster recovery tool. Most times when it doesn't work I tend to lean on the PC as the culprit. CHKDSK, temp files, spyware and virus's, etc.
Happy New Year, no?
Don't feel stupid
I'm glad it's working for you! Don't feel stupid though. My first attempt at loading a new rom went very similar. The CID unlock process told me it was successful (I thought) but it wasn't. I freaked out and thought all was lost. But I finally worked through it by going back to the Button ROM (LOVE THAT BEER SPLASH SCREEN) and starting over. The same problem even happened again about three weeks ago. After freaking out, I reloaded the Button ROM and was back on my way to normalcy
MDA is running on Superrom 1.1 and it works!
I don't know, what exactly was the problem with OS, but it helped me, when I left MDA cca three hours without battery. When I flashed the ROM before, OS wasn't.
At the last time, THANK ALL OF YOU VERY MUCH. And special thanks for Dr Puttingham and his unlocking tutorial. Thanks.
Folks,
Please help, I have a cingular 8125, it is CID Unlock, and I have upgrade it from Cingular OEM ROM to Molski 2.6 ROM, but now as I tried to upgrade it to AKU 3.3 with Crossbow icon ROM, the entire process goes through fine, but after the update the rom is still 2.6. Please help. I make sure to run the ENABLErapi but still no luck, OS is still showing up 2.26.10.2. I upgrade my friends MDA to the AKU 3.3 with no problem. Any advise. Thanks
By the way I also downgrade it to SPL 1.X and still with no luck in the upgrade.
Is my fone a lemon? I did the upgrade to WM 5 Crossbow 3.0 upgrade for my friend 8125, downgrade it to 1.1 RUU ROm, cid unlock then upgrade to 2.XX and then did the 3.0 upgrade and everything when well. I don't know why my 8125 after the 3.0 rom upgrade the OS still show 2.X I have done 2 upgrade and both was success all except my phone. Any help will be great. You peeps rock
Mine is doing the same thing

Did you use the method in my sig? Please do it again, slowly, each step. I've personally unlocked around 60 G3 8125 and MDA's this way... never not it not work.
I did read it, followed everything. I was able to upgrade it to the t-mob rom 2.26, I have a G3 8125. With the WM5 AKU3.3 file do i just run the updateutility from there and it should upgrade the rom? Or do I have to put one of thise files on my phone? Should I extract it? I'm not very good at this stuff as you can tell. If you can just tell me how to upgrade a cooked rom that will be so well appreciated.
Thanks for the quick responses also.

If you got all the T-Mobile crap when you installed that 2.26 I'd think you were OK. For fun download the latest Faria ROM at ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Roms/faria-roms/ ... I'm running the 8MB as we speak.
Good luck!
Thanks for the link Now with this do i copy it to my device? I saved it, should I have just opened it? How do i install it now? Sorry if I'm being a pain, I just really want to get this working. Thanks

you're kidding, right?
I have never worked with RAR files before, i'm a total noob I know. When I click on it asks me what program do i want to open this up with.
I got it I got it, thank you very much.
I was upgrading my t-mobile 8150(?) the k-jam with the new windows mobile 6 and in the middle of it my comp crashed!! now i am stuck at the bootloader mode (3 colored screen) and when i try to redo it i get to 99% and get a 302 error message. i follow the instructions given but keeps going in circles. its a G3 so is my phone bricked or is there a way to save it? i've been looking at this site all day but am now just more confused. lol thanks for your help!
No your phone isn't bricked. As long as you can get into the bootloader screen you should be ok. What you need to do is flash an official carrier rom either tmobile 2.26 or wizard love rom after you that than you can reflash to wm6. look at the stickies in the wizard forums that is where you can find these roms.
Thanks for the info but seems my techno curse continues. I tried the wizard love rom but it was in a different language and whem i tried the tmobile 2.26 i got "error 274 connection." Any more suggestions? Again thanks soo much for an issue I'm sure has been posted here a thouand times.
This happens to me all the time. I always use the Cingular 2.25 rom, it works perfectly and I have an I-mate K-JAM. Then, do the WM6 upgrade, but ensure all of your Norton and Antivirus and background running apps are shut down. Good luck.
yes also take out your mini sd card if you have one. even though its in another language it will work. "AVANTI means next. so just keep hitting that and you will be fine.
hmm been trying to d/l the Cingular 2.25 rom but the link seems to have stoped working...
It;s aaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllliiiiiiiiiiivvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! for now lol Lets see what happens after i install wm6 I couldn't get the cingular rom but i had already dowbloaded the button rom i found here earlier and it worked like a dream!! quick and easy!! thank you all soooooo much!
hi all. one more little thing. after adding the new rom to get it back to life, now the numbers don't match so i can't upgrade to wm6. i have ipl 1.01 spl 2.26. advice?
flash to the tmo 2.26 or cingular 2.25...that will give you an IPL/SPL of 2.xx
then, you can flash to WM6
i want to delete this message. can't find a way to do it.
there's any other way to flash without usb cable?? sorry to bug in this thread but i lost my usb connection somehow and did a hard reset and still doesn't work. my phone charges. and no is not my computer cuz my wifes phone same as mine does sync i have a tmobile mda also known as the cingular 8125.

keep reflashing buttons rom until both ipl/spl are the same number. if they are different, then the flash didn't complete correctly. (it happens often, so it's kinda normal). just keep reflashing. after both ipl/spl are the same, then CID unlock and then update to an official carrier...then flash a wm6.
can anyone help me??
Check if "USB" displayed when in bootloader mode (Camera+reset) with Wizard connected to PC.
If so, you may try to flash another ROM through bootloader.

Hello All Developers,
It's my 1st time yo post a new thread, well thats because i always found the answer in either the subject or the answers. Yet, for problem in hand, I cant find any thread with it included.
I bought a G3 Wizard, and I fell in love with it, this is not new, i fall in love with all my mobiles and PDAs.
I have a Himalaya too which is much more simple than Wizard regarding upgrading. and here we go
I followed the instructions in the sticky thread titled:
[READ FIRST] The Definitive Guide to Unlocking & Rom Upgrading G3 Wizards
I found it very helpful. I followed mainly the FARIA version too, i was reading the 2 threads in parallel to double check my understanding.
it all went great .. till the IPL/SPL upgrade step, i followed my guess that i dont need to go though the 2.26 ROM to update afterwards to 3.08. so i upgraded to 3.08 and all went well.
the next was to upgrade to any WM6.1 versions. and for my sorrow, all of them failed to update.
the failure it self was a piece of art. after the completion of the update taking its 10 mins, it just hard reset my device. no new rom is installed.
my guess was, go back to 1.05 and go to 2.26 instead of 3.08
i did that and found my IPL/SPL changed from 3.08/3.08 to 1.01/3.08 even though the rom is supposed to have both of them equaling 1.05
ignoring this fact "an error i'll regret soon" i tried to upgrade to any WM6.1 ROM and voalla
I BRICKED MY BELOVED WIZARD.
yes thats right, it stuck at 98% and sowed a failure message. allowing me only to follow the recovery steps. and i got this 4 strips screen (i'm counting the white strip too)
any way, after trying with different roms, different uti upgrading file, all reached the point of failure.
so, i kinda lost hope, and removed the batt, the SIM and left the device like this for 4 hours or even more.
i returned from work, and prayed to god to help me. i cant live without my beloved Wizard.
and the only thing i could do was to try to install the button 1.05 rom again. i tried b4 the 4 hours break, and it failed just like the others.
i dont know how but while praying , the mobile continued to flash the rom and booted completely!!!
now, after this story, here is my current status,
IPL/SPL = 1.01/3.08
ROM : button 1.05
additional info: i'm afraid of trying to upgrade to WM6 or WM6.1,may be i get it bricked for life this time!!!!
should i use WST to restore my old IPL/SPL?
what can i do to use WM6 or 6.1?
thanks for taking time to read this thread, i appreciate it
Try to install an official rom from cingular or t-mobile and then try to upgrade to wm6.1

Perhaps! your phone is still CID locked and you upgraded to 3.08,sometimes,while downgrading from 3.08 to 1.xx,spl freezes at 3.08,now try to upgrade back to 3.08 and downgrade first to 2.xx by flashing the official rom and then downgrade to 1.xx.
or,download the latest version of WST 4.2.2 and check the CID lock/unlock status,if its still locked,you can try to CID unlock with WST 4.2.2,its seen,it sometimes performs the CID unlock with different SPL other then 1.xx,atleast one user did report this successful.
