Helmi BA WM2k5 AKU3.2 Beta (v.1.3.2 Beta)
In this second minor update currently progress is:
- Mamaich Paging Pool patch 16mb/32mb
- Modem link added to ROM with bt set at COM6.
- Audiogateway Registry Fix
- Wifi & Bluetooth Coexistentcy.
- Ability to save everywhere with Pocket Excel
- Smart Dial v2.2 is added to ROM. (if u dont use it just disable it)
- Flight Mode, Task Manager, WM5 New Menu, WM5 Storage, & USB Mode Switch added to extras folder.
- StartUp Manager by baniaczek
- Use ace_ddi as video driver (Landscape & Portrait fully supported but gif file wont show in PIE, use D3D_Driver driver to support gif with PIE but Landscape mode will need to re-align after soft reset)
- .NET Fix included
- Transcriber included.
In this beta, hv all the feature from v1.2 plus new OS built (AKU3.2 OS part taken from Lt.Cmdr.Ivan AKU3.2 for UNI with help by indra9110) and speed improvement and also new ROM base (5.04.06 taken from logout template since its newer version display).
Known issues:
1. There no internal integration beetween Comm Manager and Wifi, cos Different Driver beetween Wizard & BA (I've succesfully combine them in the past but forgot now how to do it again...and i still cant remember it...hell!!!..lol). I think I'll love someone who help on this.
2. When BT On, IR On, WIFI On, ActiveSync On, the tray might flick.
3. Some help file and Some Picture/images has been strip out from the ROM to create space for more usefull app.
Tips:
1. Disable Sound (Sound & Notification >> Events) might help system speed.
2. Disable Sound in phone (Phone Settings >> Keypad >> Off) might help phone speed.
3. Backup/Sync ur PIM with active sync first (Contact, email, etc) if u upgrade it from old rom (anything below AKU3.0 ROM) cos PIM management are different from the old rom ur old backup will not work, but ActiveSync will work Ok.
Please read the readme file, I dont hv time to update Wiki page, but I'll love if someone do the wiki page for me. btw I think the information in Readme file is enough to flash ur rom and since no 'real' extended rom so no further preparation is needed, but u might consider to make ur old Extended_ROM size to 128kb to make more storage space for ur device.
WIKI page is provided by Fraser (thanks man! it really help alot) here the wiki page:

Note on MMS configuration, since it was from the wm2003 u should set the MMS. to go into MMS config and select ur operator MMS on the Connect Via selection. Messaging >> MMS Configuration >> Server >> Connect Via >> your operator MMS account
If ur operator not in the list just delete all file in OPERATOR folder, cos the MMS_ENABLE.CAB already build a standar changeable MMS account.
With the Global Contacts Access plugin from Microsoft U can use the central/global exchangeserver address book. (Thanks to xdaradar for the info)

Rommaker, U welcome to take apart this rom and use or built with ur own custom rom, cos u might thing this rom as a base/test built for AKU port (My way/Hardcode ways). or I'll post the AKU3.2 OS dir if someone needed it (bepe's way, isn't he brilliant??).
But please, gave credits to all hard worker guys here who fix the huge bug list If u use it and before u put ur name on it...specially if u're who want/usually completely copy paste the contain of the rom... btw post input or bugfix for os/rom bug is even more welcome, lets make it better guys...

Many thanks helmi!!! ... can't wait to flash the new rom
Thanks our Gods(helmi_c & Mamaich)
hi all
Sorry if this is a bit of a dumb question but i read all of the time about not restoring a full backup when upgrading a rom but above it says restoring if lower than AKU3.0 will cause problems.
I have 1.3 installed and would love to upgrade to this latest beta but the thought of reinstalling everything again is putting me off.
Is it possible to be able to upgrade the rom and use a backup from my 1.3 machine (either from spb Backup or the built in backup)
thanks in advance
I have succesfully restored all my programs using the rom-upgrade tool by Sprite, which can be used with sprite backup 5. Please note that you should exclude your PIM databases, as they will be different. But you can of course always sync these back from outlook via activesync. This will always work.
Helmi-
Thanks for the great roms. I'm currently using 1.3 with an 8MB page file...No real need for me to change, since i just spent a long time yesterday doing the whole install/reinstall/customize thing.
What I would switch for, and you talked about it before, is a new version of the AKU2.3 build. I much prefer MS Voice Command and there isn't too much need for 3.2 as of yet (not many applications for it...)
Are you still working on something like that?
THanks again!
32 pool + 16 ramdisk works fantastic. BT, WiFi, Media, Camera, iGo GPS flies, phone on first ring.
Thanks Guru Mamaich :idea:
Thanks Master Helmi 8)
AG registry fix
"Audiogateway Registry Fix"
What is this fix exactly?
Thanks Helmi.
32MB paging pool and 16 MB Ramdisk is my choice.
Hi Helmi
in 32 MB paging pool and RAMdisk 16 MB version.
The RAM should be 77 MB , but it is exactly only 61 MB.
I think 16 MB RAM is hidden somewhere.
But all works fine ,It's great.
Thanks.
.
...
incredible speed!
but I have a problem with SmartX, when i try to configure it show the error "SmartX service not activate". And I cannot activate it, because the check is disable and i cannot tap on it.
This one is really fast!
Even the IE is fast!
Great, thanks! Keep up the good work.
Nothing new, practically... Yes, except the mem.pool size, but thats a thing everyone can do
My personal benchmark
This is realy great :!: I think we now have the WM5 features on our BA with better then WM2003 speed.
Since Helmi'c 1.2 version i keep track of the tomtom startup time after initial flash, app's install and configuring.
on 1.2 : over 30 seconds
on 1.3 : about 18 seconds
on 1.3.2: about 9 seconds 8)
on 1.2 with PHM overclocking: 13 secs
on 1.3 with PHM overclocking: 13 secs
on 1.3.2 with PHM overclocking: 8 secs
Best speed ever!
I confirm that memory available for programs is only 61 MB, instead of 77MB.
back on the 1.3.1 thread, I posted my suggestions to map the Hardware buttons with the 'mail' icon to left softkey, and the one with the IE icon to right softkey. I think someone replied me, but looks like I have been misunderstood. I do NOT mean to change the functions associated to the softkeys, I want to MAP the HW keys to them.
I know how to do it, but it would be good if they were already set up like this out of the box.
And having the backlight NOT turn off while on external power.
Kudos to Helmi and Mamaich! I guess we will see 1.3.2a or 1.3.3 soon, because of these missing 16MB...
Some ideas, my opinions

Some people would like that - some wouldn't. Some will think the change would go too far, some people will be confused, asking about what happened etc.
But really, if someone got used to that setting he uses , regardless of out-of-the-box status, he uses his own setting.
I mapped the softkeys to HW buttons, becouse HW shortcuts to PIE and Messages are unuseful for me. With softkeys mapped like that, it is possible to use BA w/o stylus and using just one hand in most cases. I don't need to touch the screen with my fingers, to use softkey.
Good idea.

hmm... If we use 32mb Page pool version it should 61mb left, for 16mb page pool it will 77mb...
about hardkey, I think it whould be wiser to make it standar Joe, to avoid confusion among user, cos it so cuztomize..
and about backlight, maybe some AddOn/Patch? I'll try to learn about it.
currently I'm workin on AKU2.6 as a replacement for my old AKU2.3 as so many user complain about compability issues with some app (MS Voice Command for example) currently not workin is sms with this aku2.6 rom after that I'll go back to aku3.2 :wink:
Got hold of version 1.32 of Helmi's rom. Here's my boot time right after installing of rom, without any other software I normally install myself.
1. Paging 32MB and Ramdisk 16MB - 36 seconds
2. Paging 16MB and Ramdisk 32MB - 35 seconds
I decided to stick with 2.
Overall, what I can say is that it's very fast now. I use to need to wait for tmail.exe to open but now, it opens instantly.
I'm very happy with the speed now. I can basically leave with this now. Cheers to Helmi and to the guy who found out about the paging size.

Hi Helmi,
I quite like 1.32 rom (AKU 3.2) with the paging size upgrade, except like others, is still missing MS Voice Command. You mentioned about AKU 2.6 rom, other than giving back MS Voice Command, what are the differences from 1.32 rom? Can the paging size be increased like the current 1.32 rom?
Thanks.
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.

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

Add Total Commander. That's all I can think of... I hate when ROMs come with lots of stuff.
My must haves are as follows.
1 Smartskey
2 Total Comander
3 WM NewMenu
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.

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
markgamber said:

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.

foк making rom whith required ramdisk
Well I don't like making requests, since the developers here work on their projects at their spare time.
I just wonder why there is so little ramdisk space on 6.1 compared to the others, Just want some clarification, and it would be nice to get a 6.1 with more ramdisk space if possible.
Is it ok to install programs on my memory card? will performance be stunted heavily?
Thanks.
yoг may manually change the ramdisk - just find requred topic.
The main goal of ramdisk (exept of speed) - is that it able to maintan the programs, which can`t boot from sd card + it alwas build-in.
Usually you will loose some speed but not so much.

I did a lot of searching but found nothing. Ill even cook if Im forced to. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!
There are some "LITE" roms out. But I do not think they are that stripped out (only Quickgps, USB Connection & keyboard).
Try contacting At0mang. He might be able to customize a ROM for you.
Or you can try one of his LITE roms (Fusion V5.5 Lite CHome HTC Dialer)
clean rom with Touchflo is what im looking for, either wm6.1 or 6.5.
if anyone has a link, plz be nice post them..
May not be exactly what you're looking for, but it is a very clean, lightweight, reliable 6.1 ROM. Here's the link:

This rom does not support anything else but the stock hardware keyboard layout, also its based on a Raphael ROM.
Yes thing is the best alternative for WM6.1 a.t.m and its what I am using. But it has lots for things which I dont use and they just take up space. Like : RSS, Worldcard, Streaming media, Touch Off etc, and it doesnt have HTC Keyboard. On a clean start the ROM has 350MB storage space. But the WM 6.5.1 one that I linked above has 385MB (and it already has HTC Keyboard and USB popup).
Ive pmed At0mang, lets see what he says.
Please update the thread with your findings. I'm in the same boat as you. Looking for the Cleanest, Latest and most Stable build with just enough programs and cabs installed to make all the TP2 features functional with Manila 2.1.
I don't get it. I used to have a Hermes (64MB TOTAL RAM) with duttythroy's SUPA DUPA LITE (WM6.1) and after boot it would ahve 30MB Free RAM. I can't find beyond 145MB free RAM on the cleanest of the cleanest and the lightest of the lightest Rhodium ROMS, a device with 288 MB RAM (This is ofcourse with no Manila)
Do the drivers really take up that much space?

From what I know is that 288MB is not the total amount of usable RAM either. Some of it is video RAM, but how much I dont know. On the Diamond for example the RAM was 192MB. 64MB Video memory and 128MB RAM.
As for the ROM (512MB) most of it gets wasted on things I dont use. The max Ive found free in a ROM was 385MB. That was the link I posted above. Its a WM 6.5.1 ROM but as such not very stable.
I am making a list of things I want removed and others that I want kept, I will post them here as soon as Im done.
So far thanks for everyone's support.
Edit : Here is what I would like the ROM to be like
Based on WM 6.1
All HTC things removed (even thier 3G icons & Commanager, I will install my own) execpt for USB connection popup, G-sensor calibrator, Kinetic scrolling, The new bluetooth stack, HTC End key, HTC Large start menu & Camera.
Some Microsoft things that should be removed : Calculator (if nothing depends on it), Office Mobile, Windows Live & Messenger, Games, extra themes (leave only one, the default one), Ringtones (leave only one, the default one), All the non essential stuff in "My Documents" folder, like Pictures, Wallpapers, Templates for camera & MMS.
Things in the settings folder that I want removed : Encryption, Clear Storage & Connection Setup (the thing that sets-up carrier setting. These I can do myself).
Based on WM 6.5
All the above plus remove IE6 (not PIE) because most of the web plugins dont work with it and I use Opera anyway. Only reason to keep PIE is because I need it for LogMeIn. Also remove honey-comb start menu and use the default WM one.
One thing to keep in mind is that I have a Swedish Touch Pro 2. So I would like to keep the files require to do swedish input via the hardware keyboard.
I dont really think anything else could be removed without causing harm to the basic functions. Although Im open for suggestions.
So any ROM developer up for it ?
Edit 2 : Some other things that can be removed : Error Reporting, Help, Remote Desktop & Search.

WM6.1_21048_M2.1 Jackos Oldschool ROM v1.1
it's good
Hm, the last recommended thread just says 'nothing here' in all posts
Did you ever get one?
I really want a blank WM 6.1 with just the enablers for the various hardware features (GSM, UMTS/HSPA, GPS, aGPS, WLAN, camera, hardware keyboard, etc). No HTC keyboard, thank you very much
