any 1?
I have programs like: Email Setup, O2active...
1) how do i remove them so that after a HR they will return ??
2) i managed to find Email setup - but after deleting the files - i still have blanc shortcut in Start>Programs saying email-setup (with empty icon).
why?
can i remove only shortcuts but keep the program?
These things you wanna remove are installed everythime you hard reset. THey are programs in the extended ROM. These are customizations to WM5 that the retailer (imate, o2,qtek, t-mobile) put on the device.
If you don't want to install any of these do the following:
1. Hard Reset Device.
2. you'll go thru a series of screens:
2.1 Welcome Message
2.2 Align Screen
2.3 Tap and Hold tutorial
2.4 Password Configuration
2.5 Ending Screen that asks you to press screen to continue.
3. RIGHT AFTER step 2.5 (after you tap the screen) press the RESET hole.
This will bypass installing all the files in extended ROM which normally shown by a progress bar at the bottom everytime you do a normal hard reset.
4. Now you can Install the stuff in the extended ROM one at a time. Only the ones you need to install. To access the ExtendedROM (it is hidden) download Total Commander (search thru google) and type \EXTENDED_ROM in the navigation window and it will display the contents of the extended ROM.
I don't have O2 so i cannot explain to you what each individual .CAB file does. Just use a little guess work. THe O2Active, i believe is easily spotted. It's the biggest CAB file. Don't click on it so it won't install.
Tell me if this helped you out or if you need more clarifications.
Hola Jorge
First of all - Thanks for the great explanation !!
Although I do want most of the stuff, i already tried corporate mode (clean install) but I missed a lot of things.
therefor I installed Basic mode. (which hasnt got ALL the features)
But - some of the features i DO want to take away.
(NOT FROM EXT ROM)
only for now... programs in the Start>Program>
Lets say I wanna take the games away...
where are all the programs installed TO ??
I found some of them. but when I deleted the email setup for instance -
I still have an empty Email Icon in START>PROGRAMS>
(again i remind U - I wanna leave the ext rom as it is)
10x again !!
Some features in the ExtROM are installed in Corporate mode too, the sure way to customize is to bypass ExtROM, then install one-by-one the .CAB files you want.
Anyway regarding the Games, etc. they are part of the OS so cannot be uninstalled unless they came with the extended ROM like Backgammon that came with the JASJAR ExtROM.
To delete the ICON that is blank but still has text, go to \WINDOWS\START MENU\PROGRAMS\GAMES
You'll find the shortcut there. Or just to \WINDOWS\START MENU to see all the oter shortcuts in case you wanna remove other stuff.
The games are installed in WINDOWS and a shortcut is created to the Star Menu Directory. Just delete the shortcut.
What does "10x again !!" mean?
Dear all 818pro(ENG OS)
The reason causing memory card disappear problem is dopod built-in software.(inside Extension Rom)
Only one method to solve, hard reset the PDA but without installed any built-in software as follow:
Right now I hard-reset the PDA, until the password setup, and then the PDA begin install build-in software...soft reset immediately.
If you used above hard-reset method which don't installed any built-in software. You only lost:
1. Smart Dailer
2. Built-in Voice Commander
3. Autoconfig
4. clearvue pdf
I used two days and everything work fine. You may ask why I so sure? Because I noticed the speed of reading memory card is different before which listed below:
1. Before using above mentioned method: When the PDA turn on (In sleeping mode and phone on mode), it need 1-3 seconds to read the memory card. If you installed Today Plug-in Software, you may found that it need 1-3 seconds to detect the memory card.
2. After using above mentioned method: When the PDA turn on, the PDA detect the memory card simultaneously.
As a result, I can assure this method can solved the memory card disappear problem.
Some experience would like to share with all user:
1. I installed all programs in the ROM. If someone installed programs in the memory card, please let me know the result.
2. I can installed back the smart dialer software. Please search this forum to download.
3. When you connected GPRS, a 'Disconnect' button (and Timer) to the Connection List for GPRS is disappeared. You can make registry hack to switch back.
Add a 'Disconnect' button (and Timer) to the Connection List for GPRS
To add a Disconnect button:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 8 (DWORD decimal)
To add a Disconnect button and a timer display showing how long GRPS is in use for the session:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 16 (DWORD decimal)
To disable both the Disconnect button and the timer:
HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone\Flags2 = 0 (DWORD decimal)
4. PDA can detect 'Phone Service Provider' automatically. However, when you need GPRS, you need manuel setup. I used 'PEOPLES' which is Hong Kong Service Provider and take as a Example setup:
Go to Setting > Connections > Tap Connections
1. Choose > My ISP - Add a new modem connection
2. You need to enter > a Name (Which name you like) and Select a modem [Cellular Line (GPRS)] > Next
3. Acess point name : Peoples.net > Next
4. Ignore the user name and password. > Finish
Thanks for the Reg Hack!!! Worked perfectly on the Dopod 818Pro!!!!
Thanks!!!

Hi sas90850,
What a good job you've done! Excellent!
I'm wondering whether this topic is the instruction you said (WM5 smart dial)
or you could point out where I can download the smart dialer software and have an installation instruction, thanks.
I've 818Pro and would like to do the same "UPGRADE"... :wink:
Dear all user
you can download the built-in smart dialer software as following link. Make sure you download the "SmartDialing_enable_0915_signed.CAB" only.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32458&highlight=smart+dialer
Copy the .cab file to PDA and install. Must soft reset. :wink:
If anyone installed software in the memory card, please post here whether the disappear problem is solved. :?:

Just to let everyone know that you already have this same file as well as the GPRS disconnect button CAB file in your own Dopod 818Pro's Extended_rom. You can browse and copy files in this hiden folder with GSfinder.
This worked for me also with the jamin. I soft reset after hard resetting and it gave me back rom and fixed the sd issue. Thanks
Edit: After soft resetting my device, the start menu once again doesn't show the correct icons for programs loaded on the sd card?? The programs will open and work but the icons are displayed?
Hi, this method seems to have solved most of my Jamin troubles too! Thanks!
I need just some help to get the GPRS timer: I don't find the registry. Is it in the HKEY_CURRENT USER OR THE HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE? I found the Control Panel\Phone, but not the "Flags 2" registry that needs changing as described.
Many thanks!
Dear Fidipaldi
You need to add a new registry. Make sure you use DWORD Value. The location is shown below.
Add a 'Disconnect' button (and Timer) to the Connection List for GPRS
1. To add a Disconnect button only:
Go to HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone
Add Name = 'Flags2' :arrow: DWORD Data = 8
2. To add a Disconnect button and a timer display showing how long GRPS is in use for the session:
Go to HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone
Add Name = 'Flags2' :arrow: DWORD Data = 16
3. To disable both the Disconnect button and the timer:
Go to HKLM\ControlPanel\Phone
Add Name = 'Flags2' :arrow: DWORD Data = 0
Dear mikewchandler
Question :After soft resetting my device, the start menu once again doesn't show the correct icons for programs loaded on the sd card?? The programs will open and work but the icons are displayed?
1. Copy the program *.exe file which installed in the SD Card.
2. Use File Explorer:
Go to Windows\Start Menu\Programs :arrow: Paste Shortcut
You will get the programs icon.
Dear SAS,
Many thanks for your help!!
It works great! I also managed to get the smart dialer back. The only application that is missing is Clearview.
So far my Jamin does not seem to crash on a regular basis as it did before. It must be the add on software that made the device crash.
Finally I can enjoy the device. Thanks again!
After 5 days. :lol:
Right now I installed a lot programs both in the ROM and SD Card and didn't find any disappear problem. :lol:
One more thing, I also found that the auto soft-reset seems gone too.
I will keep posting here and let you know the result. :wink:

Here's what I usually do on a new device or after a hard reset. I have about 10 progs on my sd card (total commander, tweaks2k2, etc...) and I have created shortcuts to them and placed them in a folder on my sd card. I then copy those and paste them in the /windows/start menu/programs folder and everything works well. I've noticed this quirky behavior on the jamin so far?
I did what you recommended by not installing the ext rom. I'm happy with a quicker device and more rom; however, I'm still having this little issue with the icons not appearing correctly in the start menu? Kind of strange. The white and blue default box is what's showing up (as if there is no shortcut icon) but the progs open just fine? :shock:
which program should we install
After Hard Reset and Review the extended rom,
There are serveral progarms avaliable for install
I just wonder what program from Extended Rom should we normally install in order to make phone become functional as the standard automatic install of extended rom?
Secondly, what each one of them is for? does anybody has information?
Thank you very much

The SD card problem seems disappear but it still soft resets itself after standby and battery charging for a while.

After 6 days used, I don't have any soft reset problem at all no matter in standby mode, sleeping mode and/or battery charging either the PDA is turn on/off......any condition.:roll:
re: Mike Chandler
Try this....
goto settings, menu and unclick just one of the programs in question. select ok and then checkout the start menu. Should be well again. Then go back and reselect your menu button you unclicked earlier. All is well. I'm not sure if this is a permanent solution or not but it does work.

Thanks Yes it worked temporarily and then after a soft reset...same. I've narrowed it down a bit. The progs show fine in the bottom of the start menu (recently run progs) but if I add them to the top part of the start menu, they show fine until a soft reset....then they don't again. What I also noticed is if I copy the .exe and paste it in the start menu it shows fine....the only problem was when I copied the .exe and pasted a shortcut to the .exe. Anyway, I've settled on a fix. A few of the progs that didn't display correctly, I've just added to ilauncher.
Don't spend any more brain power on it for now....it must be something specific to me as others aren't posting problems like this. Thanks again
@mikewchandler
First of all it's nice to see you again on this forum!
To fix your problem try installing Signed_IconsDll.sa.cab from the extended rom. This should fix your problem!
@ALL
Regarding the SD card issue, the problem seems to be originating from the file Signed_SD_Driver.sa.cab. Not installing just this cab will also solve the problem.
I would suggest installing the following cabs as well as these improve system stability or add functionality:
CAB-ConnectionSpeedMax.sa
CAB-Shortcut-MMS1-JAVA5XX-CV-Dopod........
CAB-WapPushSMS
Signed_Disable_ErrorReport.sa
Signed_DisconnectButton_3s.sa
Signed_IconsDLL.sa
Signed_PIE_View_Default.sa
Signed_Prophet_DopodAsia_UA.sa
Signed_Version.sa
SmartDialing_enable_0915_signed
Thanks kta....it's great being here but I'm going to miss the eten community. :?
Thanks for the tips. Yeah, I didn't install the ext rom at all....I should have mentioned that (if I didn't?). Thanks again.
Edit: Where's the best place to get the files off the ext rom? I don't guess I know how to extract the ext rom to copy before hard resetting, soft resetting to keep it from installing. Hope that runon sentence makes sense.? :roll:
hello ppl.
i have ripped the above two applications from the o2 active ui suite and converted them to a stand alone cab....which can be installed even on the sd card....
about the applications......
powerprofile lets you manage your power consumption by switching on/off radio/wifi/irda/bt and altering screen brigtness and sound.....supports scheduled profiles
taskmanager is a manager which lets you see your running applications and quickly switch between them and also turn them off....in addition it can show you the running services at that time....
known bugs.....
1)during installation you get a msg that connection setting is not found....and the installation coplete screen is not shown
solu...after about half a min of this msg soft reset your device...
2)prog can not be uninstalled....when uninstaller is run it gives an error that program cannot be completely removed and offers you to remove it from the list
solu....accept to remove the prog from the list and manually remove the prog dir from the windows folder in the drive you chose to install it.
Wicked!!!!
I was going to flash my MDA Pro with O2 ROM to get these out today
Thanks for saving me the time
Hi thanks for these. Can you post a screenshot please? Can I install these to my SD Card?
re
thanks...for a moment i thought i was the only one who needed this...
sorry but no screeny
This is....
yarT
(yet another registry Tweaker)
I have made it for who prefer a "ready-to-use" tweaker...no box to check, options to choose, etc....only install and enjoy a "pimped" PocketPC.....
Isn't a "program", infact doesn't install anythings....simply edit the registry!
No programs appear in the "Installed Program" list, so you can't unistall directly...
however, soon I'll relase another CAB to "install" in order to came back to the original registry values....
It works on ANY WM5 device, phone or not....however some tweaks maybe don't work on you ppc....
anyways these are the modifications:
Green works on ANY wm5 device
Blue works on any wm5 PHONE device
Red works ONLY on wm5 3G phone (aka, Trinity & Hermes)
1) "Low Battery" notification edit-able
2) "Start menu animation" is OFF
3) Bugs FIX for SD, miniSD, microSD card
4) Display speedup
5) WM5 speedup
6) ANY "Security Restriction" are OFF
7) TCP/IP max cache
8) Smooth scrolling when view a web page w/ IE
9) System Registry form HIVE to FILE
10) Today-Date on one line only
11) Audio over Bluetooth (A2DP) improoved (only for Microsoft stack)
12) Pocket IE pass as IE 6
13) After install, CABs aren't deleted
14) Ask where install a CAB
15) Warn befor install an application alredy installed
16) Hide contact in the SIM
17) "SMS Sent" notification is OFF
18) "3 sec. RingTone delay" disabled
19) Vibra-feedback when press key number
20) "Disconnect" button into GPRS/UMTS connection bubble
21) Now you can choose wich phone band use (GMS, UMTS, AUTO) from Phone-settings
22) No limit for 3gp video recording
23) H icon enalbed for HSDPA

Soft-Reset after install
.
...deleted...
What do you mean by"...deleted..."? Your yarT seems saving lots of efforts tweaking. Please, clearify so I can try it. Thanks
whats?
in MY-self deleted post i wrote all the tweaks used!....deleted (by meself) simply to clean this 3d!
Thanks,... but after install your tweak,I can't see any apps installed after that in Remove Programs windows.
Hard reset is the only way.
...as i said...
I don't mean for your program only,but for all programs installed after tweak.
Any programs installed after tweak will not show in Remove Programs windows.
Can anyone else confirm this possible fault?
Well, I am back and I am glad to have some time to support the community again, updated the first post and i will flash the rom today and will be able to support this thread as well.

In correspondance with cosmicgate, i decided to post our guide on how to upgrade here, to avoid question further questions about that:
THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE SUITABLE FOR WINDOWS XP COMPUTERS ONLY!!!
For people running WM5/6x but with 43MB of storage:
You have to downgrade to WM2003 and here's how to do that:
1. Download this Windows Mobile 2003 SE rom:
Download from Rapidshare
Download from Uploaded.to
and extract it to a folder of your choice.
2. Remove both the the SIM card and the sd card
3. Put the device into Bootloader Mode, pressing power+record and reset
4. your device display shows Serial v2.0x
5. on the pc (running Windows XP!) open the Task manager, go to the 2nd tab (Processes) and kill "wcescomm.exe" and "WCSEMgr.exe"
6. Now let's start the actual Upgrade:
7. Navigate to the Upgrade folder
8. Start Maupgradeut_noid
9. If in the 2nd window the rom version is not shown, something went wrong, start over!
10. Then start the upgrade and you should see a progress bar, also look at the device's display, it should also show the progress.
11. After it finishes perform a "WM2003 hard reset" by pressing power and reset
12. wait for the extrom to finish
13. now you can re-insert your sim and sd card (if you are planning to go on from here, you can also leave them out).
14. proceed with "For devices running wm2003"
For devices running wm2003:
1. Copy repart_doc.exe and the unlocker cab to the device and install the unlocker. In the start menu you will find a folder named "Extrom Tool".
2. Click "unhide" (if you are getting an error message, proceed with 2.a, else with 3.)
2.a the unlocker installs into the standard folder for program files, which depends on the rom language can be "\programme" or "\programmes" etc.
2.b the link in the start menu always points to "\program files"
2.c the easiest way, to solve that, is to rename your program files folder to "\program files"
2.d that destroys parts of the system, but doesn't matter because it is just needed for unlocking
2.e since now the link location should be correct, proceed with step 3.
3. Click "unlock", maybe a soft reset is needed.
4. Start repart_doc.exe
5. Set the future size, if not pre-entered, to 128kb (smallest possible partition size on this file system)
6. Click "Format now!"
7. Soft reset
8. Go back to the Extrom Tools
9. "Lock"
10. "Hide"
11. Now proceed with "Upgrading a WM5/6 device"
Upgrading a WM5/6 device
1. Remove both the the SIM card and the sd card
2. Put the device into Bootloader Mode, pressing power+record and reset
3. your device display shows Serial v2.0x
4. on the pc (running Windows XP!) open the Task manager, go to the 2nd tab (Processes) and kill "wcescomm.exe" and "WCSEMgr.exe"
5. Now let's start the actual Upgrade:
5.a copy the downloaded nk.nbf to any given folder, let's call it Upgrade 28008
5.b copy the contents of this package to the same folder: MAupgradeUt_noID
5.c Start MAupgradeut_noID
6. If in the 2nd window the rom version is not shown, something went wrong, start over!
7. Then start the upgrade and you should see a progress bar, also look at the device's display, it should also show the progress.
8. After finishing, take the device out of the cradle take out the battery and insert the SIM card
9. copy the EXTROM folder to the sd card and insert the sd card
10. Hard reset the device, pressing reset+power and record+camera and in the menu, that appears set:
Enable_Kitl: NO
Clean Registry Hive: YES
Format Storage: YES
using the camera and record buttons.
11. press the mail button to confirm your selection.
12. your device starts for the first time, you align the screen and let the extrom install, it soft resets and your device is ready to use
Special thanx to d tow and chef tony
I will try it.
Synchronization does not work Microsoft ActiveSync Thank you Chef_Tony
what exactly does not work for you, i tested the sync with contacts, tasks, favorites and appointments and it all works out fine so far.
did you hard reset your device after upgrading, did you delete the old sync profile, set up a new one and set the content settings right?
