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 should take a look at one of the early versions of "New menu for WM5" (anything below 1.0.0 beta). Does anyone still have the CABs?

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.

Orange Today plugin (Icons on Left Hand Side)

Does anyone know if the Orange M700 Today plugin is available as a CAB anywhere or something similar? After upgrding to WM6 my other half is fit to kill me as she really liked it. I tried tempting her with SPB Shell but got one of those icy stares

Maybe you should have a look in the extended ROM, the installation might be here...

Thanks SS, it's a good idea but unfortunately the ExtROM doesn't contain much of interest.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1213228&postcount=11
The UK M700 ext rom is pretty useless actually. it only contains 4 cabs
MP_MMS3.5_OrangeUK_Trinity_060811.CAB - setup MMS settings ONLY (doesnt include gprs and wap stuff)
MP_CVSDcpl_20060920.cab - adds the Voice Speed Dial control panel (standard in HTCs rom)
PP_Fix_ShowTodayTheme.cab - Changes the background
PT_WA_Abaxia.CAB - Turns on the Orange Plugin
Everything else is including in the rom itself, the orange sounds, today plugin, colour scheme, icons, programs etc so installing the ext rom wont get these back.

I know someone is trying to dump the Orange ROM but haven't seen one posted yet. Perhaps I should be thinking of an alternative? Any ideas?

You might care to try this,it's from the Hermes but works quite well on the Trinity.

I just extract it from my device, but might be localized in French...
This cab seems to be better than just my files and registry export

Many thanks. It installs fine and does the job. Not as good looking as the M700 version but beggars cant be choosers

I've got the files somewhere! They reside in the Application Data folder and are part of the main ROM installation, not extended ROM.
I'll try and find where I put them and repost

Here an archive with registry information and the files.
All the files goes to \Application Data\DIL_APP
Note : as I said earlier this is from a FRE ROM...

As promised, here is an English version.
The DIL_APP folder must go under Application Data, so copy it there first, then copy the orange.reg file to the device, and tap on it in File Explorer to install it.
The Orange.tsk file goes in My Device/Windows and is the main Today Theme file selectable from Settings/Today.
The orange.bmp file can only be installed as part of a ROM manipulation, but is here for completeness!

Superb! Thanks again.

I have the feeling that this today screen slow down the device... just a feeling tho ...

help creating Cab from OEM Package

Hi I am trying to create CABs from OEM Package. The cabs i want to create are below.
This Touch HD is a Orange branded phone and the HTC Streaming Media is removed by Orange. I do not at this point want 2 do a Rom upgrade.
I have tried various Streaming Cabs form this forum. The streaming cabs that do work will only stream over GPRS and not wifi.
I tried duttys streaming cab but get error of file type not supported, which i presume is because the StreamingSrcFilter is not present.
1. PACKAGE_BlackStone_StreamingMedia_HTC_All
2. PACKAGE_BlackStone_StreamingMedia_HTC_All_0409
3. PACKAGE_BlackStone_StreamingSrcFilter
4. PACKAGE_BlackStone_StreamingSrcFilter_0409
I have looked about the forum and cannot seem to find infromation on
OEM Package > Cab there is infromation on Cab > Package.
I will pay to be pointed in the right direction
Kind regrads

There are tools for this, although I've never used them personally. I don't know how well they work, I do it manually with WinCE Cab Manager.

Normally I'm creating cab files manually using WinCE CAB Manager.

I can't imagine that the application has any problem with wifi. Is your wifi set up correctly? Maybe you have some network issues (no nameserver, or something like that)?

I belive its the custom brarnding done by Orange, They installed PVplayer 2 do the streaming this was optmized for the Orange TV (subscription service)
Orange must have configured the connections so that the streams are done over Wifi rather than GPS.
I have added the connection packages that I think will remove this barnding if you could you also make these into cabs for me.

I am sorry to hijack this thread but i have been trying to convert a package to a cab for installation and so far i have been unsuccessful
I use WinCE cab manager to import the files but how exactly do you find the registraty entries relevant for each package?

Hi I have installed them and there were no problems. But they did not solve me issues with the phone using GPRS even though a WiFi connection is available. I used a dummy GPRS connection and streaming over Wifi works.
So some where on the phone Orange must give a preference to use GPRS.
If you could create these cabs that i will attache I will see if this solves the problem.
I did another search on the forum and for bbc iplayer problems and pointed to this thread. the post i did is

You don't need any initflashfiles in order to create cab files. initflashfiles are useful when you create oem packages out of cab files .
But I guess these packages won't solve your problems, normally something like that is done with some registry entries.
Why you don't just use an unbranded rom?

I have checked the security policy and through Advance Config i have disabled the checking certificate notification when installing so no issues there. The problem arises after the cab is installed when i am trying to run the application i get the error message.

Manila Connection Setup Problem

seems to be a connection setup problem with ConnectionSetup_3_1_19202627_00 in Manila 2.5, does this EXT package require a provisioning.zip?
the ConnectionSetup_3_1_19202627_00 alone doesnt setup the device to the network, after checking the settings, they are all still default(blank)
can anyone help me here who knows the solution?
Manila 2.5

The new connection setup uses an extracted provisioning.zip, here´s my package, you have to add your localization files.

thanks a lot dude i will check it out

YYYY is right and new connection setup manager use extracted files (what's HTC thinking to add hundreds of files under /Windows just to save time on this rarely procedure???). Try my package to see if this helps.
If you really want to skip this, simply removed the following (and anything underneath):
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\ConnectionSetup

[Q] some .exe that could be removed from most himalaya rom's ?

i have found some .exe in most himalaya rom's "\Windows" folder that seem too be not needed so they could be deleted from future kitchens and stuff.
anyway here they are with screenshots..
1.sms_alert_fix.exe-pretty obvious.
2.SimLock.exe-i think something to do with unlocking sims (eventhough i've never used it).
3.cgacutil.exe-it shows you what version of NetFrameWork you are running (not sure if it gets installed as defult when NetFrameWork is installed.
4.hwhelp.exe-seems to be left from the keyboard option of character recognizer.
5.wrlsmgr.exe-maybe a part of the himalaya wireless driver.
can these be removed or deleted safely?
any ideas?

SMS_Alert_Fix will revive your phone when you will get a sms.
Simlock is really weird.
cgacutil is funking needed.
hwhelp is not needed but I don't want to know what will happen when deleted
wrlsmgr is needed for people who have SDIO Wifi card which himalaya support.

thats it then SimLock.exe is getting deleted and i will see what happens!

Here is what I removed to get free sectors in My WM6.1. The only way to learn effectively is: trial and error. Next try to read and understand the registry. It's all in there.

msim is keyboard right?
wisplite is totally unneeded, you can delete it but don't forget to delete registry entries in shell

also i know these can be deleted bcuz they are to do with error reporting and feedback-
DwXfer.dll
dw.exe
ceipui.exe
and also this-
BackPack.dll
hey muckelmaus these are needed for keyboard-
msim.dll
msim.96.dll
this for the 4 dots you have to tap when you first start up a new rom-
welcome.exe
and this is one of your splash screens-
welcomehead.96.png
and this is used for the search device for file function-
shfind.exe
otherwise i cannot see any problem with deleteing the rest of them...

i have also found this on a other part of xdadev-
*
Hd.dll
*
Aosaxst0.dll
*
Mencfilt.dll
Here Hd.dll and Aosaxst0.dll are used for M$ debug. Like some times on pc the apps close itself, and windows asks you to send the details to M$ (example. error number : 893647). We ( users) don’t know what it means, only the developer in M$ know. But I never saw these files report anything to us. SO!!! We don’t need them! they are trash!!
Now Mencfilt.dll is for storage card encrypt. If you don’t use it, you can delete it as well. Have you had this experience where after flashing a new Rom every thing in storage card can’t show any more!!!! but its still use the space in the card. Yes it's because of this file only.
**NOTE: There are some device in which removing these files causes system issues so be careful. But only a few devices

As I used a german 'qwertz' keyboard and a smaller splash screen, these files are just overwritten in my rom. These are backups.
I skip the Touchscreen alignment at first bootup (it doesn't work anymore after changing initflashfiles.dat)
Did you ever try to use * as a joker with the search program? Totally useless, so it is overwritten by a better app, renamed to: shfind.exe.

It didn't bother, everything worked 'till I deleted some files in startmenue and rearanged the programs. But noone told me that he missed the feature. Approximately 300 users over all. Even if some of them only tested. For me it was OK, and I'm still running it from the very first day, without any need of a new hard reset 'till now.

muckelmaus, why do you have a smaller startup screen?

I reduced the size of the files to get some kB/sectors free, as my rom is full of third party apps.

As I remember you can put JPG file as welcomehead
there is 2 solutions:
Save as jpg file and then just rename into .png
Save as jpg and change registry entry in redist dpi 96
by the way:
look at this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen]
"MSBitmap"="\\windows\\welcomehead.96.png"
"MSTimeout"=dword:7530 ; 30000 milliseconds
"CarrierBitmap"="\\windows\\welcomehead.96.png"
"CarrierTimeout"=dword:7530 ; 30000 milliseconds

maybe we could have 2 splash screens and change their duration on screen
So, when combined with bootloader 2 splashes (as I post tutorial to change it easly) we can have 4 splashes.
Good for doing PC boot images as I did before hima died my work in attachment
(I know that hima does not have AMD Althon but it seems good)
