Nice job there, what is the free ROM left after flashing?
It would be better if the chinese yahei font can be removed in the next build

I installed it. Good looking rom. In stalled the English xt9.cab and got rid of the Chinese stuff. Com manager key doesnt work. I would like to reroute that key to the WM6 commanager. Registry edit and taskmanager are not in the rom and should be installed afterwards. Bootlogo looks great. STD Mobile provider logo. Camera is great. All I need now is a Dutch MUI. Good work!

Isn't this the Mandarin version?

WM6 en 7.28
Thanks for the information!
China rulez! ;-)
Please let the ROM creator know we apreciate very much their work.
It would be great to join efforts and share knowledge between the two teams (koxo.com and xda-developers.com) in order to get the greatest ROM ever (perhaps better than MS ).
BTW: If the chinese fonts is a must for the authors, then I'll suggest to use a lighter version. I recall to see a sunXXX font that was only about 4MB, instead of the 10MB that this font "steals" from the precious memory. ;-)

Same here, please let the author know we truly appreciate his effort

Yahei Font will be removed.
Long_Home links to celetask, a Chinese taskmanager.
Registry edit is in the accessories.
This ROM is for EN Interface users in China.
The coming one would be for EN.

Looking forward to it, YOU ROX !!!

Kudos to the author of the ROM! It looks damn good!
BTW, if someone has problems with simplified Chinese (or the above service in particular) I uploaded the ROM to www.mybigdir.com. The ID of the file is 2454. It should be easier for someone who does not have any friend in Beijing, Chongqing or Hohhot

Just last night its still 2007.07.28 version, now after a day had passed they already have 2007.07.29 version. Anyway, been using this chinese version (I said chinese not because it was cooked by someone who is in China or Taipe or Hongkong but because the ROM language is in chinese. With some guess works in its Settings option you can change it to US English and the locale to English(UK) or whatever you want. Unfortunately, initially all menus are in chinese so you have to guess where is the Settings option, the language and locale option. But after guessing it and restarting the phone, every thing will be in english already).
For my observations:
1. The red letters during startup including the OS version is already gone
2. The startup screen are basic WM6 startup screens
3. STK services is working great
4. It has a Dopod SMStools pack
5. It has Automatic Keylock ver. 3.87
6. It has MultiFlashlight ver. 1.01 (in Chinese language)
7. It has an Iconor Listview (it toggles Gridview and Listview of Start
Menu)
8. It has WM5Storage 1.75 (Chinese language)
9. Two (2) File Explorers were included (the built in File Explorer and HTC File Manager ver. 1.41 Build 22448)
10. Low light is already present (after startup, the phone will be already in low light mode)
11. It has HTC Task Manager ver. 1.22 Build 26137
12. Comm Manager and Internet Sharing are also included
13. Clear Storage is incorporated within the Settings (found after the System Information option)
14. The WIFI is working great (I dont know about the Bluetooth and GPRS, haven't tried it yet)
15. I has a built in Registry Editor and CeleTask 2.2 both in Chinese language (what I do, I overwrite the Registry Editor.exe and CeleTask.exe inside the root \Windows folder with the English version I have using HTC File Manager)
16. The Contacts menu have a SIM Manager ver. 1.0 Build 4.36.365 option which is developed by Dopod
17. Clock and Date are shown when you press the Unlock key
18. For speed, no question bout it. I think all version of WM6 ROM speed is great compared to WM5.
18. No HTC Camera 4.0, so option is to install Cool Camera 1.15 coz if HTC Camera 4.0 cab be installed lots of issues are coming out like the delay during voice calls and speed issue (its a pity coz I started to like HTC Camera 4.0, seems it has a good picture quality compared to Cool Camera 1.15 and the HTC Camera interface is cool)
19. No built-in WM6 Office (but its good, at least users have the option of installing it or not)
20. Size of the letters are so thin (solution is to tweak the registry settings by activating Cleartype and increasing the font weight of System font, Pop up Font, Bar Font, OOM font. Unfortunately Start and Contacts font in Homescreen remains thin but in SMS font, there's a big difference. During reading and writing SMS, the font weight is in accordance to what you have set)
21. No built in input method. So before writing or composing SMS be sure to install first input methods you want (I installed English xT9) else you can only write numbers and nothing else.
22. No MMS (well I dont care about it, Im not fond of using it...)
Thats all for now...

Looking forward for a light EN version.
Regarding EN 7.28:
-the only annoying thing found was the startup and shutdown sounds (too loud).
- RegEdit, Voice command, ... included (cool)
- comm manager not present
- Wireless manager missing wifi
- No taskMgr (I was expecting celetask which I like very much)
It looks very nice and stable to me, I'll keep using it, while there´s not a new EN version.
Anyway: VERY GOOD Work !

Can we turn off that sound? Best of all, can we have a vanilla version with only essential item installed ?

Thank for your test.
The sounds will be changed next build.
And would change wireless manager to common manager
long_home.lnk linked to celetask already.
The font may not change in the next few builds. And may I ask what font you like,segou ui?

Celetask confirmed. Cool! ;-)
I suppose the best font is segoe, small file nice font. I think this is the standard fon in WM6 western versions.
I my personal case having a chinese font is not a big problem (besides the few rom space left), since I travel a lot to China and I find it useful to have some adresses in chinese to show to the taxi drivers Anyway, this font change I could do it over a vanilla WM6 EN version.

But then, it would be a big problem to most of us here, I would suggest splitting the chinese font but attach as a separate cab
I would prefer the standard WM6 font, cleartype

*Updated 11/13/07 10:11 PM* BETA TESTERS NEEDED! Official 318 WM6

This Kitchen has built in AT&T customize on first install and on HR, if you don't need it just remove the OEMOPERATORS FOLDER from the OEM Folder.
This build contains SYS and ROM in "Part #1" and OEM packages in "Part #2"
This Kitchen is so complete I had to break into 2 parts. Download and extract both parts and put all files and folders into one directory to use.
I am not responsible if you don't know what you are doing and brick your phone, but in the spirit of XDA-Developers I am sure someone here willing to help!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Latest SYS and ROM (part1) Ver8.1.0
Latest OEM Packages (part2) Ver8.1.0
Version Information:
ALL "call home" issues have been castrated! No more Customer feedback.
SDHS Memory should be full supported now! Seems to have always been present in the Official MS Wizard ROM.
All Phone issues resolved! Use the proper radio for your carrier and phone.
Wifi Issues resolved! Automatically connect to preferred networks.
Connect to Internet Via Active Sync.
For Clarification:
1) This is the original InGeNeTiCs' ROM all I did in this Version is strip out the "call home" stuff, added a few dlls that were missing but were needed for some of the HTC/touch apps (these files can be found in sys/missing files).
2) There are two OEMOPERATORS folders, one in OEM and one in SYS the one in OEM is one I put there as a example of how you can add your own cab files for settings, splash screen or whatever it is you need simply edit the config.txt file and put whatever files in the files you need. *I am not going to to into great detail how to do this all it takes is a little common since. You can delete mine if you like.
3) There are no hidden, super secret, xda-elite only, make my Wizard fly, bull**** tweaks included. just a clean, won't leave a bad taste in your mouth unless you burn it, Kitchen.
4) My only reason for creating this kitchen is to prove that the "InGeNeTiCs'- Official Microsoft-Made Specifically for the Wizard-Drivers and all ROM" is as solid and stable as any other ROM or kitchen out there if done right. Other than all I did is create and add a lot of OEM packages so you could have choices in life.
The base is like Coca-Cola "Original".
Everything works as it should the only limitations are M$ related!
This has been a fun ride but the ride seems to have come to an end.
This release is so stable that I can not bear to call it a beta anymore.
A HUGE THANK YOU to all that have contributed to this project. In the end I'm sure we all wanted WM6 but we wanted a stable version that didn't crash, lock up, and just plain ol' worked!
Credits to the ones that made the tools to make this possible: faria, anichillus, bepe and mattk_r for asking me to take the plunge.

hi
can i bea beta tester can you send me the liknk to download

First Thoughts.....
This ROM looks to be more stable than the last one, and also I see that the reboot slowdown issue is non-existent.(It would slow down horribly on the 3rd-or-so reboot/SR) Overall, faster.
HTC AudioManager + Recorder are NOT working, but maybe that's just a package issue (I used one of my packages I had lying around). Pretty much that's it.
Wi-Fi is OK, nothing major. No phone issues as of yet.
I did not test the Home Plugin because I used my 6-tab plug. That works quite well.App Launching is a little bit faster, or maybe that would just be me
Word completion works,KB is fine (tested in Notes)
I would give it a 9.5/10 (only because of no Touch camera ,otherwise, it rocks!)

Thanks for your input!

Audio manager package that is in OEM that was included in this build is reworked for this kitchen and works fine. Recorder is in process still.
Do you know of a working 4. camera package or one in a pre-built Wizard ROM?
Do you have a Home Plugin OEM to incorporated?

This works with the included *cities.xml file. The PNGs are compressed to increase speed. Works fine. It's in color.
Got AM working (my mistake, used a wrong package) but VoiceRec is still offline. Not that I use it all that much.
I think I have a bug : you need to have WMP installed to get AM working.
EDIT: New package with "Pro" icons added.

Remove clock and put battery indicator on top instead (if you press & hold it will bring up power/battery tab).
Add day and date to touch home plug-in you can change it to display as you like:
dddd will give you day of week as a word as in "Thursday", dd will give you date style (numeric day of the month) as in "30" without quotes of course.
The same is true for month mmmm and year yyyy so experiment!

I used mine, but I copied over a few (missing) files from your package.

HTC WMP today plug in
I added a bunch of packages to the kitchen and have de-bugged most of them, this one I can't find. During the OS Build the process errors out at "OEM\HTC WMP Today Plug-in" with a dialog that says "The file 'temp\dump\WmpPluginToday.dll' already exists. Know I know this is telling me that a previous package has used this dll flile, what I can't find is which one it is!
Any input greatly appriciated.

During the OS Build the process errors out at "OEM\HTC WMP Today Plug-in" with a dialog that says "The file 'temp\dump\WmpPluginToday.dll' already exists. Know I know this is telling me that a previous package has used this dll flile, what I can't find is which one it is!
Any input greatly appriciated.

HTC X-Button 1.5 offers nothing more over 1.0. 1.0 works fine with this ROM ver 5.0 (I use it)
But, if you really want it ,try mattk's package.

Ok, I already took both the 1.5 ver out of OEM. Now its complaining about sys/touchflo.dll.
edit; NOob error... left both touchflo and non-touchflo enabled in the build... fixed.
Have you built with the NON-TouchFlo dll selected?

NON-touch

That's what's in my current build. Nothing major to report of.

1st flash test report
Ok,
So I got the build to run with Merlin's help (thank you Sir). Flashed back to T-Mobile 2.26, up to IPL/SPL 3.08 and GSM 2.69.11 then the kitchen build.
First the good news:
1. For the first time in a dozen or so ROMs I have flashed Voice Command workes flawlessly! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!
2. Basic functions work good, no glaring errors.
3. As theloon noted, the backlight controls will not lock the wizard.
The bad news:
1. If I attempt to launch any CAB file (including the 2.69 radio fix) I get a message saying "CAB failed to load"
2. see #3 above, it doesnt lock the wizard, it however will not open backlight control either. recommend taking this out of the launcher and just leave it in the settings page.
3. HTC Audio manager, if I attempt to open any audio file I immediatly get a message saying "critically low on system memory..." WMP still works fine.
4. The dastardly weather application doenst like the XML file i built for it. I wish there was a way to test that without building. (see questions below)
5. I used merlin's 6 button HTC home plug in, looks very nice BTW, couldnt do much testing on it since my contacts DB is at work. My only negative on this one, the musical note icon (far right) is very hard to see. I dont know who did the icon art but perhaps we could find a better icon?
6. I tried loading the AT&T extended ROM as part of this build, bad idea. The flash gets to 5% and crashes... took it out, flashes fine.
Questions:
1. Is there a way to test the weather XML file without building it into the ROM? IE: If i build the the ROM with the weather XML file included in the build I can only edit it. I cant delete, replace etc. So I was thinking that if I took it out of the build and put the file in after, maybe I could speed up testing.
2. Several of the packages dont seem to have any output, IE: the WMP home plug in, I dont see anything on the home screen that relates to WMP?
So there it is, I have to re-flash to a fully working ROM before I go to work tomorrow. I will be on line all day (from my office) so post away..
thanks Loon for letting me test this, great fun!

LOL? I think not dear Senior Member... I have tried every possible way to delete that file, stop the plug included. The file properties say "included in ROM" and will not allow changes to file prop. Thats why I asked about building without it, so the file properties would allow changes.

What I can deduce from your observations all/most of your "hanging" problems seem to stem from the final size when you build your ROM.
I have experienced this myself, the max size for a wizard rom is around 56 MB for the ROM, but that does not include Boot loaders, Radio and Extended ROM.
In my case my phone is locked so the "customize" just uses storage/program space and does some reg tweaks.
If you want more space in your build you can use the compression tools located elsewhere in this forum.
As for the Home Plug weather XML make sure it's attributes are not set to "read only" and you should be able to exchange them at will and SR to test there usability.
My HTC Audio Manager works flawlessly not sure what you did! be careful using other OEM packages, the ones I included in this beta were designed and tested to work with this beta.
FYI HTC Audio Manager was built using Windows Media SDK so it uses components of WMP (dlls and such), I will probably move those components to different directories.
Backlight is a matter of a redirect/link.
Feel free to fix any/all issues and post for everyone to test!!!

[19/8/08 - Fixed] WWE OS CE 5.2.20273

After some feedback at our 5.2.20273 release i did some progres and some testing with regs etc etc blah blah blah
Without SPL so must be G3/G4 safe as they say
At last a working but minimal release i think. After this i make a translation to another language. see the pictures
There are some things to be changed i think but that's for later
Very basic but with

- Oxio
- PDF Reader
- MMS
Diamond skin for
- Dialpad
- Windows MediaPlayer
- "Calculator"
Homescreen is very basic without HTC Home or Manilla clone
With the SD Drain fix
Unfortunatly i use 4shared
I have enough feedback now so i go working at release 2
Issues R 1
- Looked at MMS problems.
In our release 2 it is working but integrated in sms. (something still to change)
- Smartdailing (dialpad)
- Camera (something with settings)
- Editing registry / Windows
Thats solved (i think, because i can do it now, but also testing)
I see also some icons not in in the system settings (oa battery). That must now also be solved.
Fixed in Realease 2 d.d. 19-08-2008:
- Camera (replace the complete Camera OEM with the SVI Camere OEM)
- Dialer (Diamond dialer Poorlyduck)
- Buttons
- Icon lnk files for control panal
- MMS
- Smartdialing
Thanks:
- S.V.I. (Camera OEM)
- Poorlyduck (Dialer OEM)
- its right (TNT Kitchen)
- Abusalza (20273 SYS / OS)

Release 3 (xx-09-2008)
Kitchen

Great, now there's one ROm to be used and "dressed" as anyone likes
Probably I'll try
Thanks for your effort
ps: if possible a PTG version might be real nice

If you want!!!!
I speak spanish...so if you're interrested on a rom in spanish give me the files and I'll translate it for you, just tell me how!!! hehehe, when wm6 starts a Crosbow has a spanish version, and people in forum translate the english files for him then he cooked up to his rom.

There is no MMS in this ROM only SMS (Text messages). I like the newer icons in this base rom, especially the signal colors. Also, the dialpad does not work so well, after call is ended the end call button stays up and red. I know this is beta, just some notes on what I've found using it.
Bluetooth doesn't work (although the light does turn blue, it doesn't send or receive anything).
Videos can't be viewed in Windows Media Player ("The souce filter for the file could not be loaded." error message)
Again, I know this is beta...
Thanx

Hi,
Thank you for this release. I liked very much I had some problems. I can´t change any registry item. Seems that I don´t have any permission to modify thing is system. And I´ve tried to disable Security Warning during CAB installation and I wasn´t successful.
You know hot to disable this security stuff in your ROM?
Tks.

If you go to messages you must see the option MMS. If not i certain upload R2. That was also the plan.

I shall try it on our Wizard.

Thank you for publishing this ROM. There is a problem with the PIN input screen : there are no buttons on the screen. You can use the buttons on the keyboard, but I was afraid to use that way.
I would need a very clean ROM , so if you have a corrected one, please publish it.
I downloaded everything from your share page, but I have not enough knowledge to cook my own ROM.
Thanks again.

i have found a two bug, i can't open camera setting and dialpad of this rom is too slowly, no show calling id and i can't use smartdialing. thank for your fix bug in future

How did you fix reg settings? For some reason people complain that they can not do it with my rom. I can, they can't. weird.
The icons not showing up has to do with the oem used, and the .MUI's used.
I had that problem when switching between kitchens. Sometimes editing the init flashfiles.dat does not work as I got duplicates that did not work. It is best to use the initflashfiles.dat that came with the rom, and edit it as nessesary.

I think i solved a lot ;-) now Probably not all. I create initfiles.dat to get the missing icons in the settings part ;-)
I removed the HTC Taskmanager because i used e closeApp when you pushed more then 2 a3 secconds on the voice button.
So i can now place release II. I hope that all issues are soved now. I look a lot at other ROMS and kitchen regs apps etc.
But before posting release II i want to know first his battery drain. In the mean team i now starting with other language roms

I was messing around with the kitchen that you posted and the rom you made (v1) and I have to say I am impressed.
I also had an accident wich left my wizard running at 38mb free ram!! I have to figure out how. never seen that before.
A couple of suggestions:
Enable NTIZ (time and date fro network) OM won't install if the correct time is not posted
Enable RAPI
Remove security when instaling cabs
Disable error reporting
Tasks.ini you might want to move into Office
SAP Settings you might want to move to the control panel
As well as modem link
Also, I noticed 2 commanagers: the diamond, and this new system like commanager in the control panel
That's all the time I have for today.
Could you send me the new flashfiles dat and HTC oem translation provxml when you are done?

I didn't see release 2 on your link. all files are dated 8-8-8 or 8-6-8. Are we waiting on an upload, or are you still working on it, or am i blind
thx

I will post him tonight. I am now checking his powerconsumption. After 6 hour battery was still 100% with HTC Home.
But Release 2 is without HTC Home.

g4 friendly???
hey is this rom ok to b adapted to a g4 wizard...?

GPRS/EDGE issue I do not know how to fix. maybe you may be able to help, or at least requires some inquiry:
Gmaps and OperaMini can not connect to the network even though the E icon is up. I have to press and hold end call button to disable it; only then those programs start a new connection. It is like the connection times out, but does not fully disconnect.
Battery is lasting a ridiculously long time with pushmail enabled (imap Gmail) much longer than the other roms I flashed. kudos.

But give feedback tnx

is there a kitchen out there still for this release?

[RELEASE] Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard Tornado Hybrid

Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard Tornado Hybrid
CE OS 5.2.19202.3.0.0 (SKToolsLite readings)
I am glad to be able to find the time to assemble and cook this ROM. A "Very Special Thank You" to GnatGoSplat for providing the base ROM, assistance and encouragement. A "BIG Thank You" too to RickWyatt for helping me out with my first ROM release sometime back. Thank you to everybody else who are willing and brave enough to flash this ROM to your device. I hope you enjoy this ROM as much as I enjoyed cooking it.
As I am quite busy, support from me will be intermittent and difficult to come by. I hope experienced forum members and cookers can give a helping hand. Please use KarHoe's (great work man!) fantastic Guide to flash the ROM. (Best result when "format BINFS" is done.)
The significant feature of this release is the XIP 20202 from Vox. Please see the benchmark data below for comparison.

Well, i install the HTC Splash Screen for the startup images and i'm looking how to change the background call, jeje.
Thanks a lot...
This is a nice ROM

Thanx for your work, man.
Flashed this rom a couple of minutes ago.
Seems to work fine, liked homescreen in previous release more, so will try to shape it the way i want.

I just flashed my test phone and it works REALLY fast compared to previous 6.0 on it! is there any way to modify the clock font size and type to look like the one on HTC Home?
Anyway, awesome work!
Now i just need to find how to put Hebrew on this thing, cause letters are coming as squares again
Any chance you could check my post on the smartphone general regarding how to dump a rom and extract hebrew from it ?
EDIT: I can't seem to be able to send or receive bluetooth OBEX, keeps saying it can't be accessed / Fixed with AmpTweaks - Registry Missing for it!

I just flashed my test phone and it works REALLY fast compared to previous 6.0 on it! is there any way to modify the clock font size and type to look like the one on HTC Home?
Anyway, awesome work!
Now i just need to find how to put Hebrew on this thing, cause letters are coming as squares again
Any chance you could check my post on the smartphone general regarding how to dump a rom and extract hebrew from it ?
EDIT: I can't seem to be able to send or receive bluetooth OBEX, keeps saying it can't be accessed / Fixed with AmpTweaks - Registry Missing for it!

@karmacoma7: Homescreens are controlled by *.home.xml and *.cpr files.
@Sefy: Idont know how to dump rom. Maybe you can search for language file.
My bluetooth connection is ok. I can send/receive files.

[Rom]ahmedfikry wm6.5 light - User Customization - Manila -3D driver- 23569

Hello all
I cooked this rom for maximum speed & space
it is a "light" rom ...with all extra MS "useless" stuff is removed, most other useful programs can be added by CABs anyway based on user preference
this rom allows user modification / user customization "UC"
Users can add files from the memory card to be automatically added / installed after flashing or hard reset
The user customization works silently in the background, please do not interrupt the process until its completed & the device is reset
Donations through paypal welcome...many hours of fixing & cooking here...thanks in advance
please click donate link below
Here is the download link for 23569 V3 rom + 6 MB pagepool + 3D drivers
http://www.4shared.com/file/wLJ4O4bc/ahmedfikry_wm65_23569_Tilt_3D_.html
to test the 3D drivers, here is a cab with some sample tests:
http://www.4shared.com/file/IJR4U1Nx/HTC_3D_driver_Samples.html
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
for the users who want to get rid of their old splash boot screen
here is the link for a new one that matchs my rom 2nd splash image
i did not cook it inside my rom for the users who prefer to keep something they may already like
this has to be flashed speratly & will not affect the rom itself, it will only flash the splash screen
http://www.4shared.com/file/222203628/48b40625/ahmedfikry_splash_bootscreen.html
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USER CUSTOMIZATION
Simply, here is what you need to do:
* if you just want the LIGHT rom: flash as usual & do NOT do any of the following instructions
* if you want a LOADED rom:
- download & extract this XDA_UC file to the root of your memory card :
http://www.4shared.com/file/252299809/6f73f237/XDA_UC.html
- flash the rom & follow the pocess prompts until soft reset is done
- if you need only some of the files included delete the unneeded file form the XDA_UC folder, in the XDA_UC folder above I have only the really useful CABs that almost everyone can benefit from (see list below) ...but you can still choose to keep or remove according to your needs
- if you want to add cabs or files copy them to XDA_UC folder
File List in XDA_UC folder:
last modified & uploaded on March 29th 2010
http://www.4shared.com/file/251838532/b92bad10/XDA_UC_folder_files_list.html
for more instructions on this USER CUSTOMIZATION look here:

thanks to Noonski & all the other developers who helped
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Manila:
for users who like manila, i prefer to keep my rom light, but you can use the M2D package below to add it:
http://www.4shared.com/file/231114088/6db7ebb9/ahmedfikry_M2D_package.html
I use the older version of Manila because you can use M2DC (customizer) to change to look of it, skins are available here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=451702
I included a matching comm manager & the wallpaper image to complete the "theme" look

Thanks so much for this. As far as the MMS, I remembered from another bare ROM that MMS is not stock. I downloaded the cab CRCs_ArcSoft_MMS_v5.cab from here, but can't find the link again.

I had to edit my post 'cause i was wrong...
- Calendar started to work after a soft-reset
- ActiveSync was not working with the PC (Over the air was fine)... I uninstall ActiveSync from my PC and reinstall it... Everything is working fine...
- The only thing missed is Office... Any change for a CAB?
Clean, stable, FAST... Quietly Brilliant..!
THANKS for this great rom, exactly what i was looking for...
(Please, help me with Office CAB)

For MMS, just install Arcsoft MMS from the HTC Mega ROM.

office, MMS, and all other applications (like GPS..etc) can be installed by CABs
i will release a zip with all the cabs (+ instructions) so you can choose what to use & add as you wish...it is "user customization" rom & thats why the base rom is so light

Bluetooth explorer
Hi
I flashed your rom and it seems to be OK
Thanks!
I kindly ask you for a "patch" to BLUETOOTH EXPLORER
(in my previous rom 6.1 I liked to use that feature)
THANKS AGAIN
ALON

Hi,
just flashed. Very nice ROM. Really fast and clean as promised (tried with Spb Mobile Shell 3).
Just noted two minor issues: there is no Sliding Sound setting (so you cannot configure sounds on open/close keyboard) and no Wireless LAN configuration panel (the one with PowerMode tab where you can select the power of wireless card for best performance or best battery).
Thanks again for sharing your work.

i will see what i can do about the requests above (BT explorer & WLAN settings)
but can other users test the vibration with this rom...some users reprt that if you place the phone on vibration, it does not work with alerts or incoming calls (it shows screen but stays silent)
let me know if you have this issue so i can try to fix

The sliding sound can be changed from the Sliding Sound exe in the Windows folder (workaround).
About the vibration...Mine is working fine.

Again, great rom! Can you post short descriptions for what each of the cabs in the pack do? Some are not familiar to me. Also, a small issue with the camera...hitting the camera button flashes the camera screen, then the Picture/Video app but never get's to the camera. If I use the shortcut, I can get to the camera, but it will not take a picture. Changing the setting to "half press" will take a pic.

Thanks bjcolema for the tip.
Just for info: WLANSettings.exe is present in Windows folder as well and even without text on tabs there is the possibility to modify WLAN power configuration to "Best Performance".

enjoy....

Great, trying v5 now Thanks
