NO NEED FOR MORE DISCUSSION. THE NEW ROM IS RELEASED!!!
I plan to release a new English ROM. It will be based on the latest ROM improvements by vjgrace. There are many good ideas for implementing in the next release, but they are scattered into different threads. So, I've decided to create a new thread to gather them all here and make it easier for me to implement them.
Please keep your suggestions reasonable. I can implement only registry tweaks/fixes and add/replace/remove software/files. I do not have the source code of WM6.
You can also post your favorite registry tweaks and I'll see if I can add them to the Control Panel.
Looking forward to your suggestions.
Do NOT suggest something already implemented in vjgrace's latest ROM.
This will NOT be a vanilla ROM!!!
---------
Here's the suggested change log so far:
Additions/fixes/tweaks
New OS version: 5.2.1711.18165.0.5.0 (done - thank you GnatGoSplat )
6MB Page Pool (2MB more available memory - no significant performance loss)
Update .NET CE to version 3.5.7283.0 (done)
Startup/shutdown animation and sound (done)
WMPlayer full screen issue fix (done)
ATCIUI (Modem Link) (done)
Voice Dialing over Bluetooth Headset (done - tested and working)
Bluetooth FTP Explorer (done)
Bluetooth A2DP Settings (done)
Bluetooth SAP (Sim Access Profile) support (included but not tested)
Using wince.nls from WM5 ROM for long months names (done)
New settings in Control Panel
Select actions for hardware keys (done)
Adjust scrollbar width (done)
Enable/disable SMS send notification (done)
Change ActiveSync name (Ident) (done)
Change Temp folder location (done)
Change File System cache, Glyph cache (former Font Cache), Font cache (the real one), enable/disable Paging (done)
Included Software (so far)
WM5torage v1.8
MoBlue v2.0 beta
GroupSMS and Inbox Extender
Fewbits Startup Manager
PIM Backup v2.8
SRS WOW XT
FEADIE (File Extension Association for Download in IE) v1.0
Dopod SIM Manager 1.4.36.365
Latest GSM radio and SPL update will be provided separately - no need to risk SPL update failure (download here)
I have one little suggestion: could you please add tweak for thin scrollbars?
Apps: maybe Schedy Mobile? Its realy fast and useful task and alarm manager I think it's much better than Oxios Alarms
Ok, can we change the device ID from TORN100 into dopod577w? Or perhaps create an option in the settings to tweak the device ID? I'm not talking about the ID that is keyed in when using nb_nbf tool. Cause I tried that and it doesn't work. I'm talking about the ID which shows up when you access the phoen registry with MobileRegistryEditor from your pc, u would see the id TORN100. Cause if that works, probably Cyberion Voice Commander would work as well, it is bundled with Dopod 577w installation pack which will only work for device with the id dopod577w
This should not be considered warez, because its not hacked or whatever, I paid for the phone which includes this software. It's very useful, hold the left soft key and you can utter alot of commands, such as Read SMS or voice digit dialling
PLZ integrate connective tools sleepwell for flightmode switching
http://www.connectivetools.com/sleepwell.html
I would like a version for spv c600 without WIFI stuff if possible
No applications, yes tweaks
Please, don't include more aplications, only tweaks. I'd prefer a vanila edition, buy if it's not possible don't add so much applications.
Thansk
Dude, read first post. VANILLA ROM IS NOT POSSIBLE. because even if you remove the apps, you won't save the storage.
@karhoe:
Do you know which registry key sets the device ID? And the software you provide, may be helpfull, but it's too big (1.1MB).
@b0gdi:
WiFi stuff is less than 0.5MB. There's no significant gain in removing it!
Well one thing that have not yet done I think is to integrate a O2 MENU like that are highly costumizable for us to have a well organize menu and to give our WM5 phone a unique and a different look...what can you say about htis guys
This wold be nice to include : http://www.jgui.net/black/vistaspinterface/index.html
History of changes:
Version 2.0.
more new clock styles
incl. Predator time, what you should understand to survive ;-)
new weather icons (like in Yahoo!Widgets)
program launcher runs
more fixes for portrait screens
fixes for some newest devices
fixes for traybar and some others images
Ability to disable t9 and T9 input methods
DUN profile enabled
AAC codec installed
AAC and WMP files associated with WMPlayer by default
Screen Rotation app
Ability to change comm manager colors to match color scheme
registry change to hear callers in dual-mono on stereo headsets (works correctly on some builds, broken on this build for my Motorola S9s)
SAP (SIM Access Profile) for MS bluetooth stack
smartamazing, O2 Menu unfortunately is for QQVGA and not for QVGA resolution.
dadme, Vista Interface is a really cool proggy, but not everyone uses it (including me).
Let's keep the software list short with useful applications, such as necessary system tools or utilities. They must not be more than 200Kb in size. GUIs are something completely subjective and anyone should install its favourite one.

t9 can be disabled at the input box. Why should I add this option to the Control Panel? DUN profile is already included. Screen Rotation application is still under development. CommManager color scheme is hard-coded; cannot be changed on-the-fly!
What's the SAP for MS BT Stack?
Attach the AAC codec here and provide me the necessary registry tweaks that you mention above, and I'll implement them.

Well, we just have to set the device ID, and tweak the cab so that it can install into storage card . I have no idea, searched the entire registry that was dumped for torn100 but can't seem to find at all
Oh, and perhaps we should include Vox display driver straight away, so we can easily embed screen rotation in the future
Bad news about the device ID. It seems that it's hard-coded in the kernel. The only "TORN100" string I've found in the entire ROM dump is in nk.exe!!!
I think there are some issues with the Vox display driver, concerning screen refresh...
Could it be the reason why my screen hangs each time it is locked?
Hi!
I'd prefer too clean ROM with only tweaks and without apps. Just my suggestion...I understand that isn´t goot for all. Is possible release two ROMs?First clean and second with apps?
My suggestions
Latest ROM by vjgrace is very GOOD, but is possible take base from latest Sharks ROM?Is good latest Sharks ROM?Did anybody test it?
Additions/fixes/tweaks and New settings in Control Panel just well
Startup/shutdown animation and sound by NG is very nice, but please with shut off sounds
New software
Please just absolutely required apps! for example apps like in vjgrace ROM and less...without CLOCK ON TOP...
suggested apps:
1. is usseeles by me...
2.yes!
3.why not
4.i don´t now...
5.yes!
6.yes!
7.is usseles by me...its freeware and don´t use everyone so this program can everyone install alone so far as need it
O2 Menu and Vista Interface please no. Maybe more codecs...
Thanks!
While everyone wants a clean ROM, unfortunately its not possible because even if you removed the apps, it doesnt mean you gained anything.
Btw, why is this so? Something to do with the make_imfgs while cooking the ROM?
Karhoe
I Know i read your text and I don´t want absolutely clean ROM I want just with absolutely required apps vjgrace ROM is in this direction good!I just wanted say that thinks like O2 Menu or Vista Interface is absolutely useless and for example i prefer more codecs, ulilits like contacs menu for sending visiting card via msg, Acrobar reader LE, All reader...xbar not Top on Clock...

VJGrace's ROM, my ROM, EA's ROM are all based on Shark's ROM!!! His latest update had nothing to do with the core. Only some tweaks/fixes (already implemented in my/vjgrace's ROM) and some more applications.

We must fill the ROM will a specific amount of "bytes" for having the maximum internal space available. So, I'll try to include the most "popular" useful small utilities.
Please, no more talking about vanilla versions or removing applications/utilities. Just suggest your favorite tweaks/fixes (please attach any necessary files) and your favorite small utilities/system tools. I'll include as many software I can, without dropping under 20MB (or at least 19.5MB) of available internal storage.
I'll try to be objective on fulfilling your software wish list.

Hello Everyone,
It has been a while since my last ROM update and I thought I would build another one based on the newly available AKU 3.2 core. The good news is that I have completed the ROM and have tested it myself extensively (as always) with no major bugs or issues to report. I am now posting the final version for all that wish to help evaluate and test this beta prior to its full release. As I stated above this is my final beta and all features should operate as desired, however if anyone should have issues or suggestions please post them.
Enjoy,
Jwrightmcps
Now for the fun part!

Same as Ivan's
Hi,
Is this rom same as Ivan's? and if not what is the difference?
also, can you PLEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSSSEEEEEE include the languages pack??
This ROM is designed for the I-mate JASJAR and is completely different than Ivan's O2 ROM although they both share the same AKU 3.2 core. see the above post for my ROM contents.
As for the language pack...
if you are referring the the OS language pack this would be impossible, because that would only be on a new device that has never been used before. The language pack feature is a new design in which a new device would already have all languages loaded in the "program memory" from the factory and when the new owner starts the device for the first time it would ask what language he/she preferred, then after the user's selection it would erase all languages except the one chosen. So these language packs are not available in any ROM and therefore I would never be able to package it.
I hope this answers your questions.
Take care,
Jwrightmcps
hi,
I successfully extracted the ship.exe from the ship.zip,
as I have a Qtek 9000 I need the .nbf files.
It looks that the .exe files are not a SFX CAB archive.
This way I cannot use MaUpgrade to flash my Qtek.
Could you please put a .exe SFX file in the ftp? so I'll be able to extract the nbf files.
Thank you very much
Dias
I flashed it and its really good so far. No problems yet
SFX???
what are you trying to do???
all you need to do is run the .exe and then go to the temp folder (dont close the installer) on your computer and look for the newest folder then open it and copy the nbf files you want.
Then you can use the MaUpgrade tool. You may want to put your device in bootloader mode first.
Take care,
Jwrightmcps
is there any HTC Intellipad included, cause i cannot live without it, in Lt.Cmdr Ivan aku 3.2 beta 12, the phone pad is gone ....
yes intellipad, smart dialer, voice dialer and many other features.
enjoy!

Hi,
I just did:
- Start install
- open (windows->run) "%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp"
find latest created folder (which contained all nbf files).
- copy *.nbf to where maUpgrade was extracted
- close install
- run maUpgrade (needed to do it twice as it didnt go into serial mode fist time).
hope this help

Heres my findings and bugs report for this latest Beta Roms we have here, plus i got a New Version of SIM Manager 5.22 to share with u guys!!
NEW SOFTWARE!!!
New SIM Manager v5.22
Current Version in the ROM is v3.16
I found this NEW Version of Sim Manager v5.22 from the Internet. You can copy ALL your name contacts from memory to SIM card at one go. One catch though - contacts saved under company names will only display contact numbers and NOT company names. Would like to share this and hopefully u can intergate it into your next Beta release or maybe the Final release.
Bugs Found:
1: Hardware buttons not responding anymore
a) volume slider
b) light button
c) voice dial
d) camera
SMS Multiple Recipient improvements
2: Cannot find this function in the inbox application for SMS. Not sure if its included or buggy sorry i cannot find it. Pls englight me on this issue. Thanks!
New Ringtone Plug-in
3: Sorry, can't find this application or program either.
4) Default File Explorer is Missing!!!
Findings:
1)New Camera application 3.00 22764
Camera Pictures Quality still not much improved
There is a newer version found in UNI.AKU3.2WWE-indra9110.BETA1 (130.115) Camera Version is 3.00 22844, i can't get hold of this version hopefully someone who has this version can share and contribute. Thanks!!
2)Screen Rotation icon no longer in taskbar!
I personally found this icon very useful, can pls reinstate in your nest Beta or the Final release. Really Appreciated!!
3)Bottom Bar Default Calender and Contacts function changed to Notes and Contacts.
Its this a AKU 3.2 upgrade or can it be changed back to Calender and Contacts Instead??
4) New Game included
Pocket Chess- Cool!!
5)Some findings on Default Memory on this Latest AKU 3.2 Rom
Default Storage Memory- 37.38MB
Default Program Memory- 28.91MB
6) Speed
Yes, Definately we have a faster ROM, still cannot comment on stability cos just downloaded it an hour ago, hope my findings can help improve this ROM further. Thanks Jwrightmcps Great Job, keep it going man!!
Does this rom support Video calls ?
Does this rom support Video calls ?
thanks
it does support Video calls
4) Default File Explorer is Missing!!!
Its in the Start menu (I thought a 3.2 Feature)
1: Hardware buttons not responding anymore
mine does
a) volume slider
Mine works
b) light button
does not work (i use the power on off button
c) voice dial
Dont care
d) camera
Works
Bugs...
The file explorer is not missing it is on the start menu (look closer please, as your post might scare people)
"ALL" hardware buttons should work, as the do on all my test phones (7 JASJAR's) Please check this again.
SMS Multiple Recipient improvements means you can SEND a text message to more than one person at a time much easier than before (this is an AKU 3.2 feature)
The Ringtone Plug-in is found by doing a "tap and hold" on any sound file, this now includes mp3 files. (so there is no program to run, that is why you don't see it)
The Calendar softkey was replaced with Notes, due to the fact you can already launch the calendar from the today screen. Leaving it as the default "Calendar" is redundant don't you think? I fell it is far more useful to have another program to launch, such as the notepad, so one could take notes quickly. I will not change this, but could provide a signed cab file that would change it to the default.
Screen Rotation Icon, again this is another redundant feature that was removed, since our devices will rotate the screen automatically. I will not change this either, but again I can provide a signed cab file for those that wish to have this icon available.
There were many other additions that I don't think you noticed yet. You all should pay attention to the things like "USB HDD", "Bluetooth Settings w/ all profiles" and the updated "Bluetooth Mouse support" just to name a few.
I hope this answers you questions
-Jwrightmcps
First of all, I would like to say thanks for this ROM (and all the guys like Ivan & Indra that put a lot of effort into it).
My observations of this ROM:
1. All buttons works perfectly. Volume, Voice Dial etc...
2. ROM is much polished than Ivan's ROM. A lot of Registry tweaks are even included already.
3. Initially after Hard Reset, the ROM felt very sluggish. However, after applying the usual Registry Tweaks this ROM just flies.
4. First time sync with Activesync 4.5 Beta is really fast. Normally it's a pain!
5. Clear Storage now resides in Control Panel as 'System Restore' so does Download Agent.
6. Lots of goodies: PhonePad, Smart Dialing, USB HDD, BT Profiles/Drivers/SIM Access, Clearvue PDF, Voice Speed Dial as well as Pocket Chess.
7. Messaging is now 'Outlook Mobile'
Will observe more Once I got all my softwares installed.
As for now, this ROM looks good.
Cheers!
Here we are,

Too bad, I cannot try this. My universal is having RAM problems(thats what the O2's engineer said )
So, selling it tommorow and buying prophet(since it is pretty cheap these days). Actually, I'm saving money for Fujitsu U1010. I'm in love with it With it, I'll be able to do .net programming on the go. *yay*

Here the screenshots (27)... Low quality for low size...
why not change RAM chips?

XDA Mobile 6 Release 4
Let's give thanks on Thanksgiving; Its a new XM6!
You can now cook your own version of this rom! Click Here!
XDA Mobile 6 Release 4 (XM6r4 for short) is the fourth version of the popular XM6 rom series for the Wizard. The base rom is the same, but with new features and fixes to a few bugs found in XM6r3.
XM6r4 is built on the OS 5.2.318 Build 15342.4.0.01 rom that was provided to us by InGeNeTiCs from Howard Forums. While this is not the "newest" release of WM6, it is the last known release that was built for the Wizard (ie: its not a port from another HTC Device). Various pieces of the base rom have been upgraded, so some of it is stuff ported from other phones so that it can have newer functionality. Overall, I feel this base is very stable and fast and makes a great base to cook on.
Please Note: this ROM was NOT intended to push the limits on speed optimization or memory optimization. It was made to be functional, stable, and something that I myself wanted and will use. I've found it to very quick and responsive (especially with Overclocking with BatteryStatus), and so far Battery life has been very good for me and those beta testing this. If you have a Battery Drain issue, make sure you flashed back to an official rom before you upgraded to this one, as that should correct extended rom corruption that has been shown to cause battery draining. BatteryStatus is NOT included in this ROM. If you want to overclock or use other features of BatteryStatus, you are welcome to download and install the latest version of BatteryStatus yourself. I personally use it, and have OMAP set to 247MHz with CPUscalar set from 143 to 247 and Boost set to 260Mhz.
Base ROM Information
The base rom was an "Official" Wizard WM6 ROM that was part of the development cycle of WM6 inside of Microsoft (Dogfood as they call it). The base rom was not a port of another device rom with drivers and stuff pieced and parted onto this one, but this was an actual Wizard WM6.
Windows Mobile 6, OS 5.2.318 Build 15342.4.0.01
ROM Version: 10.1.0.811 WWE
ROM Date: 08/11/06
Protocol: 4.1.13.09
There is no Radio, IPL, SPL or Extended ROM included in this (so its G4 "safe").

Mods made from XM6r3
In addition to the apps listed above, the following fixes and mods were made to improve the user experience on XM6r4
Changing ringtone now stays changed when you leave the Phone app
Using press and hold on CommManager button toggles vibrate on and off, and phone does NOT stay stuck in vibrate / no ring mode
Regional Settings default to English (United States) and use a slash for the date seperator (M/dd/yyyy)
Menu sounds work by default
Pressing the "End Call" button does not disconnect GPRS but minimized the active application. Pressing and holding the "End Call" button for about 5 seconds will do a GPRS Disconnect
Internet access over ActiveSync (USB) connection works (You must apply a registry fix on your PC first. See the next post for the fix)
D pad now works differently with PIE. Up and down presses on the D Pad stay the same, but pressing right jumps forward a page and pressing left jumps backwards a page. Makes going through websites easier (IMO).
Fixed the A2DP registry for sampling
Registry Entries for PIE Connections to speed page loading
Registry Entries to increase In Call Volume
Press Button 1 for messaging (like normal) or hold it a little longer and HTC Action will come up (via HButton)
WkTask setup to not show Phone and Activesync as running apps in task bar
QuickMenu enabled for nice drop down and cascading start menu
Touch Scroll only is active so use your finger to scroll in most places
Requirements
You MUST have an IPL and SPL at 2.xx or higher (BOTH not just one or the other).
You MUST be running ActiveSync 4.5 on Windows XP (Vista comes with the correct sync utility, although there have been issues reported about Vista and sync'ing with PPC's so be aware of that).
Before you attempt to upgrade to this ROM, Please follow this thread to learn how to flash roms, CID unlock your phone, and how to fix issues you may run into! It is also recommended that you flash your phone with a Windows XP computer and not Vista. It will work with Vista, but if you run into problems Vista can't talk to a phone in Bootloader mode!
Recomendations
I HIGHLY Recommend that you flash back to an official rom before upgrading to this (or any) custom rom so you have a clean base (and correct any Extended ROM corruption you might have). G4 users would flash back to their provider's latest official release or the Wizard Love ROM. G3 users can use T-Mobile 2.26 for a good base.
If you use BatteryStatus (its NOT included in the rom!) to overclock, I don't recommend overclocking above 260Mhz, and the CPUscaler settings in BatteryStatus should not be set to a min lower than 143MHz (or your device may not wake back up after going to sleep).
Newer Radio ROMs on WM6 have had issues in the past (especially for Cingular / AT&T users). T-Mobile 2.19 (UK or NL versions) seems to be the most stable, but you can now run newer radios with the attached cab. This cab also works for some other providers but not for all, so its up to you to test what works for your phone.

I've moved the credits to the 5th post of this thread as this post has become too big.
Known Issues
When entering a contact in the "To:" field it does not link to the outlook contacts, it instead shows suggested words. You can tap the word "to" and it will go to the contact list no problem. Also, when trying to select a file to send no file names or pictures are displayed just empty square boxes, you can tap the box and it will go to the next sub folder, if it is a folder. There are no thumbnails or files listed so it is impossible to navigate to select a picture or video. Click Here to download patch
After the initial flash, some have reported that QuickMenu pops open the start menu when you are supposed to tap the screen to start the phone setup. Just wait a second or two and it will close by itself.
The base rom has a bug / feature where if GPRS is active, unanswered calls may not show up as a missed call and may not give notification of the unanswered call. If this happens, the unanswered call shows up in the history as an answered call with a duration of 1 or 2 seconds.

XM6r4 Addons and Information
Radio ROMs
Here are links to a few of the Radio ROMs that I've used with XM6r4. Remember that Radio's newer than the 2.19 radio may require the WM6 Fix CAB that is attached to the first post of this thread.
T-Mobile 2.19.11 UK
Cingular 2.25.11
2.61.11
2.69.11

How to not have a 24hour Clock (or how to show AM/PM)
This works on all WM6 roms
Go to Start > Settings > System > Regional Settings
Make sure you have the correct Region selected
Click on the Time tab
Click on the drop down box for Time Style
Notice the little up and down arrows? This is a scrolling region in this dropdown. Click the up arrow a couple of times and you'll find h:mm:ss tt
Thats it. Microsoft is amazing at having a 2 line scrolling region on this dropdown. You'd think they would have had at least 3 or 4 lines show up for chosing (and it would be more obvious that its a scrolling region then too).
GPRS / MMS Setups
First, here is The Ultimate Thread with people posting operator settings for about all providers! In the first post is a link to the thread where walshieau is creating an automated way of setting up all of these!
What follows is a list of automated and manual ways of setting up GPRS and MMS for various cell providers and regions that I've collected:

Connecting XM6r4 to the Internet via ActiveSync 4.5 on Windows XP
For those having issues connecting to the internet via Active Sync, cut and paste this code onto your PC in a file called net_over_activesync.reg and run it (on your PC not your phone)
Code:

Splash Screens and Splash Only RUU for G4
For G4 users, Click Here for the RUU with the Splash Screens of this rom (since you don't get them when you use the shell tool). As I understand it, this is completely safe for a G4 as its nothing but splash screens (no OS, IPL, SPL, Extended ROM, etc, just splash and htc logo screens). I've also placed the .bmp files that make up the splash screen in the zip file so you can see them directly before flashing this.
If you have problems flashing the above RUU on a G4, then extract this http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=29158&d=1152698784 and pull the nk.nbf file out of the above Splash Screen file and put it into the directory of this one and run this RUU. You can use the same method for flashing the Radio Only ROM (pull the nk.nbf file out of the radio only rom and put it into the directory of this RUU and run it). Thanks anichillus for that link! You can also check this thread for another RUU that is in English and seems to work for most G4 users. Thanks Vippie!
Weather Panel Setup
See my post in the Wizard forum on how I setup WeatherPanel. It will give you a fixed dll with correct moon phases through 2008, new/better Moon phase icons, and a cool theme called Chameleon-240 QVGA. I dumped SBSH Pocket Weather after seeing this setup
Hermes Black Cabs that may be of Interest
Transcriber can be added back into XM6r4 by using the Black 3 Add-on CABs file. There may be others in it that may be of interest also for some. Included in this file is Cyberon VoiceCommander, Cyberon Voice Dial, VIjay555 utils, and a Slingbox patch (none of these I've tested).

BatteryStatus (for Overclocking, CPUScalar, and much much more)
BatteryStatus is a very popular utility around here and for good reasons. Currently its in a beta phase and the author is releasing new versions of the beta constantly so I decided not to put it in the rom and let people install whatever build of it they want. Also, some versions of BatteryStatus have been known to cause excessive battery drain, so be aware of that too. You can find it in the Official BatteryStatus thread and if you do use it, feel free to give feedback on it in that thread as they are always looking for ways to improve it.
NOTE: If you do use overclocking, I recommend you use the OMAP Apps tab to setup Camera to be at 195Mhz as it can mess up the display if you are overclocked and doing the camera.

Info on Included Apps
FingerFriendlyFriends v1.0 Beta 2
For those wondering, PocketCM was replaced in XM6r4 for two reasons. First the author of PocketCM did not want it included in roms. Two, I like the FingerFriendlyFriends app (even though I hate the name )
Check out these images of it:
I would advise you to check out and participate in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340227&highlight=fingerfriendlyfriends if you like FingerFriendlyFriends. The official website is http://www.jotto.no/fff/ and has info on using and making the most of FFF
For those that don't want to run FFF and want the standard Conctact manager back you can do the following:
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS
Change "String 1" value from "\Windows\PocketCM.exe" to :MSPOUTLOOK contacts.
Then if you want it back, you can change it back to \Windows\FingerFriendlyFriends.exe
Since FFF is in beta, if you need / want to upgrade, just drop the FingerFriendlyFriends.exe file in \Windows
SK tsync
Included in this rom is SK tsync, which will synchronize your phone to time servers. I've included in \Windows a special link called tsync silent.lnk . You can copy this link (with TotalCommander or use WinXplore) to your \Windows\Startup folder and it will allow your phone to sync its time after a reboot. Famewolf also wrote a Mortscript for easy install (since Mortscript is part of this rom). Click Here to download this script, then just place it on your phone and run it, and it will copy this shortcut to your Startup folder for you.
MobileJustice v0.8
MobileJustice is an Anti-theft app that you can configure on your phone. Just go to Start > Programs > Accessories and click on the MJConfig icon (first time in you will get a message that there isn't a config file, just click ok and it will be created). To us this, check the Enabled box, then click Add on the Allowed line. You can then setup your SIM card as an authorized one, and add other SIM cards IMSI numbers if you use more than one. Next click on Add next to Report to: and setup an SMS number (wife, friend, colleague) where you want the text message to go to if an unauthorized SIM is put into your phone. You can add multiple SMS numbers if you want. At this point, your phone will now be setup so that if an unauthorized sim is put in it, then it will send an SMS (with no record of it being sent) to your Report To list on the next boot (you can test this by not setting up (or removing) the Allowed and then doing a soft reset).
For more advanced, you can turn on the Disp MsgBox at the top and then put in some text in the MsgBox text line. This will pop up a Message box on the screen of the phone after a boot, if an unknown sim is in the phone.
You can also enable RMon (bottom half of the screen), put in a pass phrase, and then turn on MsgBox (GPS and LocCall do not work on Wizards, and the other options haven't been implemented in this version). By doing this, you can now send an SMS to your phone in the following format:
+m passphrase message
Rmon will intercept the sms message (so it will not show up as a received message), and if the passphrase matches the one you put in the configuration, then it will pop up a message box on the phone with your message in it (so you can secretly send messages to the thief to possibly intimediate them (or whatever).
The project page for MobileJustice is located at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mjustice/

Those that took the time to help alpha and beta test XM6 Release 4 (Rudi, Peter, and Ben). We worked out a number of issues with a nice quick beta test (XM6r3 beta worked out most of the real bugs so this one was "easy" )!
Everyone that installed and gave feedback and support on the other XDA Mobile 6 threads
Everyone that I thanked in my other ROM releases!
I thought there were going to be door prizes...didn't we agree on door prizes? No mouse pad?
Great job once again mfrazzz on the rom!
^..^
congratulations..
This really is an excellent release Thank you, Mike, and happy Thanksgiving..
One remark though, for everyone who may see the QuickMenu popping up at the first boot after the flashing: You don't need to click anywhere to make QM disappear, it will hide itself after a few seconds and you can continue to the initial configuration of the Wizard.
Release 3 is one of the best roms, i was waiting for next version.
Thanks for this one, will flash it today.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If your apps require registry entries more than likely you will have to reinstall them..they may or may not keep your settings depending on whether the settings were kept in the file or in the registry. (usually the registry)...any documents or files stored on the card should be fine however.
Here is a mortscript which may be of use to people reinstalling...it's called Reload..I am not the original author..I just made a few changes.....these instructions are taken from the Readme.txt inside:
How to setup:
1)Extract Reload.zip to the root of your storage card.
2)Place cab files in the CabsAuto folder if you want to the cab to be automatically installed to the phone storage.
3)Place cab files in the CabsManual folder if you want to be able to choose where to install the cab.
4)Place file in the Backup.zip file that you want to be restored to root of phone.
ie. If you wanted example.jpg to be placed in the \Windows folder, place example.jpg in the Windows folder of the zip file.
5)Place file in the SDBackup.zip file that you want to be restored to Storage Card.
*Please note that the cabs files placed in the CabsAuto folder need to conform to only asking the user for the installation destination, then showing installation successful/unsuccessful. Otherwise you might encounter some problems. You should place cabs that don't conform in the CabsManual folder, or adjust these cabs with programs such as WinCE CAB Manager.
###############################################
How to use:
2)Execute Reload.mscr. This will initiate the script that will first install the CabsAuto, then CabsManual, restore the files in the Backup.zip file if it exists, and finally restore the files in the SDBackup.zip file if it exists..
###############################################
Please note that files in CabsAuto are cleared out as they are installed so you may want to have a "CabsAuto.save" you copy over before a Reload.

This looks like an amazing release. I haven't flashed my phone since TNT 4.0, but I am going to try this tomorrow night for sure. Just one question, does this have the fixes so that there are no problems with the missed call notifications when using GPRS or during another call?

The radio fix?
The Radio fix (XDA Cingular WM6 Radio Fix2.cab) ... has that already been applied and, if not, what does it fix exactly?
Which could be causing my problem? My girlfriend isn't getting my texts and she has verizon. Is it the 2.19 radio rom, this rom, or the T-mobile settings I chose?
Attention, this ROM version is now deprecated, see this thread for Q-Mobile 1.2!
Well, it was bound to happen...I love all the custom ROMs out there but none of them quite suited my needs. I'm a business traveler and as such I tend to need lots of screen real estate, and a fast device, with the best software preloaded and optimizations up the wazoo.
Introducing Q-Mobile...it's all of that and more. You can see best what applications are loaded from the screen shots below. Suffice it to say, they don't even begin to do justice to the fine grained care that has been taken to configure each application for optimum use ability. I have been working on this ROM for almost a week now--my method is far deeper than simply throwing packages and RGU files together and hoping for the best. There are literally HUNDREDS of registry tweaks and care was taken with every application added--no file was left unscrutinized or tested.
Some Highlights (this is an extremely compact feature list of what I added/removed/changed):
.Net CF 3.5
SqlCe 3.5
FULL Video Access (Main YouTube as well as m.youtube)
Custom KaiserTweak for this ROM.
Arcsoft MMS 4.2.8.1
Esmertec Java 2007.08.02
Microsoft Office 2007
Microsoft One Note Mobile
HTC Equalizer 1.0.2
HTC Random Access
TCPMP 0.81
It is worth noting that this ROM is intended for the HTC TYTN II style devices (e.g. Radio 14.09 will not work).
WWE (English) ROM : MegaUpload |RapidShare
I'd like to thank everyone on all forums but especially xda-developers. Without people like you none of this would be possible. In addition it is probably obvious that I pilfered what I considered the cream of the crop applications, ideas, graphics, etc. No doubt many reading this will realize their work in here somewhere.
P.S. You may notice a seeming lack of applications--that is because I personally heavily use Spb and Resco products to complete my device. Feel free to download individual cabs to fill in any freeware you feel should be integrated.
Enjoy,

What is: Field test, Restore black bars & SQL Query Analyzer?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Field test is an application that exists on every device (unless it has been cooked out) and is extremely useful for troubleshooting network problems. Obviously you can remove the link for it if you don't like it--the exe is only 33KB so its not exactly a hog.
Restore Black Bars is a tiny app courtesy of jasjamming that restores black bars if you change your theme then decide to go back to the default.
SQL Query analyzer is an app that's included with the new SQL CE 3.5...I'm not really sure how useful it would be but again, its tiny so if you don't like it just remove the \Windows\Start Menu\System\SQL Query Analyzer.lnk file.
Does it include Touch Flo?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I originally wrote "nope, too sluggish for me". This is a misstatement given that TouchFLO is indeed included (as evidenced by the screen shots. TouchFLO is the application that allows finger scrolling in many apps (ala iPhone). What I was referring to was FTouchFLO/Touch Cube (the app that allows gestures to bring up special screens (other facets of the 3D view, etc). That is not included.
Keep in mind that you can tweak or turn off TouchFLO through the KaiserTweak app under Programs\System. I myself turn it off because Spb Pocket Plus offers better support and functionality in this regard.

Too bad it does not have Touch Flo. Or else I would install this rom.
which radio?
It's late, getting sleepy......I'd like to experiment tomorrow.
What radio would you suggest using for an ATT Tilt phone?
How's the battery performance?
Any possibility of summarizing more details of the work that you've put into this ROM?
Thanks.

The benchmark result looks great! I also think TouchFlo is too sluggish, it is only for people who want to have a nice look but not the speed or stability.
Thanks for sharing us!

It does not matter when you have a TITL or TyTN II. At the moment you are using Dutty's Hybrid NO.7 NUSkool RTM with Radio 1.27.12.17. So you can flash this Q-Mobile rom.
But you should know that when you flash any roms what is built from AT&T rom, you need to flash radio 1.27.14.09!!!
This thing have Connection Setup/Network Wizard? Thoughts on reliability and speed versus Dutty, anyone?

You can turn your device in a Wireless router.
There's no connection/network wizard, which is a bit of a shame. It's not a show stopper for me (always keep a T-Mobile cab handy on my storage card), but it could limit the adoption for this ROM.
I've just flashed and configured Activesync, here's my thoughts so far:
Appearance: Nice. It's got the cool black look, and it's even got a nice new image for WinMobile's equivalent to the hour glass - the spinning pie chart - which is more in keeping with the black feel. There's a single theme installed (good), and the splash screen is quite nice too.
Speed: Pretty good. I'd put it slightly ahead of Dutty, but perhaps slightly slower than Custel with Mobile Crack. Screen rotate is a little slow, but app switching is speedy (instantly back into messaging, or contacts).
Apps and config: There's no keyboard sliding sound icon, which might be a problem for some. I always turn it off anyway, and that's the default here. There aren't really many surprises in terms of app choices.
All in all I'm very impressed with it. I'm going to give it a few days to see if it does anything to upset me
hmm,going to def give this a try for a bit..

Any possibility of summarizing more details of the work that you've put into this ROM?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sure, I was tired last night and didn't really feel like elaborating. Here goes...
All help files updated/removed to reflect current ROM state.
Default directory layout and file locations updated to be more intuitive.
Programs organized into folders reflecting their purpose.
Removed tons of unused files and settings.
Default button for Comm Manager is now single click on the record button (I miss that they removed the button the Hermes had for this).
Voice Speed Dial removed.
Default network settings removed (this never worked for me since I have an internet plan with T-Mobile and it always tried to set up the wrong one).
.Net CF 3.5 and SqlCe 3.5 are custom to my ROM (I had heard there were problems with the packages built by others so I built my own from scratch).
A *LOT* of work was done ensuring maximum media compatibility...as mentioned before streaming (mms, rtsp) protocols work, but the full version of pages like Google videos, YouTube, etc also should work.
As mentioned already there is no TouchFlo Cube, HTC Home, etc.
SQM (MS spyware) has been removed.
ClearStorage was removed (this can be accomplished via the soft buttons+reset anyway).
Sliding keyboard sounds removed (this was annoying anyway).
Lots of useless default images and templates removed.
Games removed (there are cabs for them anyway, and I personally never used them).
Windows Media player has a skin in theme with the rest of the device.
The default calculator has been removed (there are much better ones available out there--check out HP48 emu or 1-Calc).
IA Zip removed (there is the Office Mobile zip viewer, or better zip apps out there...Spb, Resco, etc).
Windows Live removed.
HTC Audio plugin added for use with WMP (works when device turned off as well).
All ringtones except one removed (feel free to set your own--this is how it should be anyway).
BT FTP removed (this is the Bluetooth FTP server/explorer which imho is quite useless).
Again I'll mention TONS of registry tweaks to make the default behavior of the device more intuitive.
Page file size set to 12MB by default.
While I'm sure this list is by no means complete it will hopefully give you a better idea of what's in/not in it. Cheers,
Great job on the rom. Work perfect for me even after i loaded all my apps.
Tilt User
So how is the stability and speed of this? GPS / Internet sharing works fine? Thats what I use most of.
hello, Could you please tell me how to add or post a PTT rom I tried all the hacks i could find to make it work and it will not thanks. wc3sam

Two very important things for me as well, from my perspective it meets both of these criteria. FYI I forgot to mention there's an app called Visual GPS available under Programs\System that is preconfigured to work on the Kaiser...if you haven't heard of/used it before it will help acquire sats faster.
What you do is:
1) Make sure QuickGPS has current data (by default I've configured it to automatically get this so it should).
2) Run Visual GPS to acquire satellite lock.
3) Launch Google Maps or TomTom.
The reasoning is that Visual GPS can acquire a satellite lock faster than either of these applications, but even a cold acquisition (no QuickGPS/VisualGPS) is sub 30 seconds for me so maybe it doesn't matter.
Cheers
Congratulations, mate... great work here
Attention, this ROM version is now deprecated, see this thread for Q-Mobile 1.2!
5.2.1948 Build 18548.0.7.0
And...without further ado. This should be the final revision of this ROM for a while. All bugs from 1.0 fixed with a couple more tweaks, etc. If you think you're missing something read these posts in full and you'll probably find it.
For AT&T Tilt users...I have had a few guinea pig volunteers I will be tapping later this week in an attempt to make a port for your network. Keep in mind this will be specifically for those users wanting to use radio 14.09 with an AT&T data service plan. If you have a tilt but are not an AT&T customer you should probably just use this ROM. See this thread for information on radios.
Tweaks/etc.
Don't forget to check out the Q-Mobile 1.1 Downloads section in the next post...I'm always updating it with pertinent information as people request features and/or find tweaks, bug fixes for certain configurations, etc.
Upgrade Directions
Install HardSPLv1 if you haven't already!
Flash this ROM.
After first boot, perform a HARD RESET. This is accomplished by holding both soft keys while pushing the reset. You will see a white screen asking you to press the send key to wipe your device; do this.
Why? Because it really *can* help make the ROM run like it should. I confirmed this with Spb Benchmark.
Does it make other ROMs run better too? Yes.
ChangeLog for 1.11
Sounds & Notifications are fixed!
- Sorry about this...there were some permissions issues which prevented them from being selectable. Already upgraded to 1.1 and installed files? No problem! Read this post to see alternative options or why it won't hurt to do a full backup and then restore after upgrading to 1.11 (from 1.1 only).
ChangeLog for 1.1
Email attachments fixed!
- Q-Mobile 1.0 had a bug where attachments in email wouldn't open until you saved them. This is now fixed!
.Net CF 3.5 Fixed!
- Added Net CF Config under Programs\System in case you have to run multiple versions. Almost all apps should work with 3.5 now, but if they don't you can install 2.0 SP2 from below and use this app to decide which runtime your app should use. Remember that 3.5 is a LOT faster so use it where possible!
SQL Server Compact 3.5 is fixed.
- Since only the server core has changed to 3.5 there should be no application incompatibility--but if you need an earlier version they should be able to work in tandem. No configurator is necessary as with .Net 3.5 above.
MS Office 2007 Uprage for File Formats
- Now you can open even more (unconverted) file types! (Think email attachments).
More GDI/Font Cache options in Kaiser Tweak! If you have a lot of graphics on your today screen you can now set the cache even larger than before!
- If you are having an issue with icons loading slowly you can also turn off the File System and/or File System Filter caches--this may help or it may not, experiment to see what works for your setup!
Equalizer 1.02 was removed.
- As pointed out it appears to work but doesn't really. If you think it was working for you check Dutty's cabs below and install it again!
More cleanup with regard to deprecated files.
- This includes the customer feedback application, more registry settings dealing with SQM, etc.
HTC Recorder tweak. (Directory default is now My Audio instead of My Voices).
Camera shutter sound is now off by default.
- This is an option available within the camera settings menu so feel free to turn it back on. I find the camera takes faster pictures with it off, not to mention it was annoying
Kaiser Tweak now has options for more storage card power management settings.
- The internal SD card is now linked to the next option (Pocket IE cache).
Kaiser Tweak has a new option for the Pocket IE cache location which can be changed to be on your storage card.
- Be aware that if you enable this, the power management for the internal SD card *must* be disabled (and it should do this automatically) because Pocket IE will hang the entire machine if it isn't.
Compact List of Features
TouchFLO (finger scrolling) *is* included. FTouchFLO/Cube is not.
.Net CF 3.5
Sql Server Compact 3.5
FULL Video Access (Full YouTube as well as the normal m.youtube.com)

Arcsoft MMS 4.2.8.1
Esmertec Java 2007.08.02 (Opera Mini & Google App verified to work)
Microsoft Office 2007 (Updated with Nov 28th Extensions)

I love your rom, but please leave the clear storage function in your next if it will be any next version It can´t take that much of resources to leave it because my Tytn II is really hard to make a hard reset, sometimes I have to press the f*cking button combination 30 times untill it makes as it should and it is so frustrating - I sometimes feel the urge to throw the bugger into the wall
Othervise I loved 1.0 so this could only be better
Is there a way to uninstall office and the coreplayer ???
I'm french and I prefere install a french office pearhaps without last update ...
I'm working for few days with the first version and I really think it's the best one... i'am glade to see this new version !!!
Go on man !!!!
Haven't tried your v1.0 but I think this is a good chance to test this your latest version! Looks very impressive based on compact feature set and the screenshots! Thanks.

A commercial tweaking utility such as Pocket Mechanic, SKTools or Memaid offer the option of a hard reset, I think...

Ok thanx ! I shall look in SK Tools, never thought of it
I've some .reg file to install but on this rom itsays me that : "there is no application associated with "my file.reg". Run the application first, then open this file from within the application"...
Why can't it write on my BDR ???
I haven't installed the ROM yet but you'd need a regeditor to be installed before you can run/associate .reg files... PHM reg editor and Schap's reg editor are some good free ones...Schap's Advanced Config utility is then a good tool to use to associate your reg editor to the file.
Dear Quentin,
Could you specify if the bug "when one turns on vibrate only, and the vibration never stops with incoming calls?" is solved also with this ROM? Thanks a lot!

Won't Cook!
Apparently when I tried cooking using this rom, then flash it, I'm stucked at the "smart mobilty" screen. I'm using KitchenROM 0.3, and I added the HTC Task Manger and Network Wizard. Any ideas?
I found one bug that is bugging me Can´t change the sounds for incoming sms and mail. The list with sounds is just emtpy even though the wav and wma files are in the windows directory. Only me getting this?

Same here....
Very good ROM
I have to admit that after flashing all ROMs in this forum this is the most responsive one. It has exactly what I need.
The only thing I noticed that is not working properly is the shortcut on HTC Home for the backlight.
Is it possible to fix it?
Regards
