Hi slvrbllt,
Just been to your site. Many thanks for the cycle bluetooth app, just what I was looking for.
I tried your Phone Profiles app and its good but unfortunately conflicts with my Qtek firmwares flight mode - it's a long story.
Anyway I'm trying to remove the app but finding it a little difficult. It keeps saying that /windows/profiler.dll is open or read only even after a soft reset. Any ideas how I can remove the app? It suggests doing a stop all but no apps are listed there.
Thank you,
hi slvrbllt!! Can we assign only a vibration for the new SMS without ringing (for a silent profile for example with a vibration for the ring)? Thanks for this great update!bye

Have you tried DKToday? It's a great BT cycler & more.
@slvrbllt,
Very nice app. you can expect Dutch translations soon. Only thing I like as an improvement is small buttons to quick pick a profile or a possibility to put it in the tray.
Cheers, M
Hmm, looks Good...

Thanks, I gave it a try but it has problems with flightmode also (note. these problems seem to be due to a particular Qtek firmware). I think I'll stick with radiooff and CicleBT. Thanks for the info though.
I've downloaded and installed the software, it look good !!
But when I get an incomming call the callerid popup appears followed by a short beep, not the ringtone I setup in the profile... What am I doing wrong ??
Regards,
Dennis :?
I installed it on my Dopod 818 Pro and it was working fine. However I noticed that the ringtone I assign for any profile is disregarded! It always plays the default ringtone.
So I had to remove it
[Posted to wrong thread]
I can't even install it... I just have this cab(?) file called Winmobileapps_PhoneProfiles.zip but what do I do with it? If I unzip it to my home pc, three files come out from it but none of them is an installation file (.exe)
-John
Try this link http://www.modaco.com/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=15580 then
Yeah, but the specific thing here is; Where do I put the CAB file on my device - which directory??? As you can see I don't know ANYTHING about Win CE
-John
Hi John,
you'll get used to it. I suggest you put the .cab on your SD-card, either via Act.Sync, a card reader or direct download with Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE). Then click it from within File Explorer to install. I've installed it to my storage folder (not the default location) & it runs well.
Another suggestion: get caninstl (google for it), then you can choose where to install cab-files far more easily & it got an option not to delete the cab after finishing the installation.
Regards, M
Nice work slvrbllt, everything that was missing in your first post in now in it. You made me happy hehe
V1.2.0 is out!
Question for Silver Bullet: I saw there is a new feature: Hi-Res icons added.
What is exactly the feature is (I haven't install v1.2.0 yet)?
Thanks!
Regards,
Arto.
@artosoft
Hi-res Icons are for VGA devices only... ;-)
Thanks for your appreciations.
is it possible to set a vibration to an incoming SMS without a ringtone?thanks
Hi slvrbllt, i have tried your other app Flightmode on my BA WM5 and it works great. I have a question on Phone Profiles; would it be possible to add control over the backlight and power save options? This would be helpful to create a profile for "Car" for instance where i need the backlight on and power save disabled for my GPS and would be easier to setup a profile to do this.
Thanks for your applications and hard work.
[AX3L Tweak&Utilities] The simplest way to boost your device without making a ROM...
Hello to everybody!
Few moths ago I've edited a Trinity's ROM (AX3L v3.1.2.c) to speedup and boost my device...anyway I've left the "cooking" when my device jump to floor and become broken...
So, I have noticed that many people try to make their own ROM to boost their device (and adding some personalizations)....but making a ROM is difficult (not to much..) and need too time....
Some days ago, a friend ask to me to do a ROM for him (just to "optimize" his device), but I don't have so much time now for create and test it....
He tried some Customization-Tools, but some time don't understud what was done/which option choose/etc...
For this reason I've created a simply CAB installer to improove/optimize any WM5/6 Device...for newmbies or who don't want cookin' a custom ROM....simply install&play!
Here is the list of included tweaks:
. Disconnect GPRS/UMTS button and a timer display showing how long GPRS is in use for the session
. Max TCP Windows Size
. Max PIE Download = 8
. Low WMP background quality
. Live Search now use Google.com
. SMS Sent Notification is disabled
. Show Battery on top bar at Today screen
. Customer Feedback Service OFF
. SQM Service OFF
. Today Date Plugin on one line
. Menu animation OFF
. Removed (only when useless!) the scroolbars when read/writea SMS/Email/MMS/etc...
. Enable WiFi PEAP Authentication with privately signed server certificates
. All Security Restriction are OFF
. Ask where to install a program
. Keep CAB files around after installing
. Prompt before overwriting an existing installation
. Big font cache
. Enable file system cache
. Improoved battery life
. EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA icons enabled
. Enabled Purge Sim contacts when no Sim is present
. Vibra-feedback when press any dialpad's key
. Low Battery warning in now configurable
. OBEX protocol enabled
. Few settings
I have also included some programs found on this board:
. SoftKey setting applet
. MoDaCo's noData
. Sleuth255's SIP change

=================================
CAB #2: .NET FrameWork v3.5 Booster
This other CAB is for who have already installed or want install the ".NET FrameWork v3.5"
It simply speedup your device....
NOTE: IF you ALREADY have .NET FrameWork v3.5 on your device, simply install the CAB #2....BUT, IF you HAVEN'T already installed .NET v3.5, you must install it before install CAB #2 !!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can download the original .NET FrameWork v3.5 setup from HERE!
==================================================================
WARNING:
For some reasons, CABs #1 and #2 aren't UNInstallable. So, you "must" create a backup before install it in order to restore the default system!
.
Niceness.
So what changes does cab #2 change, if any?
good stuff bud....not to be one to stifle innovation and new things...I have to ask the simple question that immediately popped into my mind...How does this differ from Schaps Advanced Config?
Great idea
How do we know if we have the tweaks already in our custom rom. I am sure all roms use the net framework, but how would we know if the booster is setup?
Would we cause any problems if we install your cabs?

Umm, the fact that this is automatic and not manual
second cab just sets 3.5 as default .net...
same thing you may set by using netcfcfg.cpl
will be trying it right away.
good idea

You can make those changes manually, so you can even restore the default setting.
Key: HKLM/Software/Microsoft/.NETCompactFramework
Dword:
2.0.7045.00 -> Set to 0
3.5.7283.00 -> Set to 1
To revert the changes restore the original values.

Tried it on my Polaris running udK's Syrius rom with Manilla 2D.
- All today items are gone (also Manilla 2D) except time/date which is the only item left in the list of selectable today plugins
- 3G keeps disconnecting and reconnecting every few seconds. The white "connection" dialog keeps poping up and is totally annoying.
The one fix I was after was about allowing custom certificates on PEAP auth for WiFi (we use that at work). Could you isolate that fix and give my a hint (registry etc)?
Thanks, going to restore now...
well, i installed it and it completely ****ed my system up. now on the today plugins menu in settings there is only one option and it's without text.. which is the date plugin.. other than that i have no today plugins.
(same as for pananza)
glad i didnt use it
Extracted the cab to see what's inside. Do you mind explaining what the following files are?
InTheHand.dll?
Custat.dll, Ceipui.exe - disable customer feedback I guess?
compse_sms.htm, compose_style.css, read_sms.htm, read_style.css - remove txt msg scrollbars (if not necessary)?

Try this cab guys...he had the \hklm\software\microsoft\today\items\ key with the today plugins from his own device included in the cab for some strange reason. This will definately fix the 'today items' problems...but other problems...you'll have to ask him
EDIT: If you installed his original cab...it probably screwed your today items settings which 'i dont think/know' how it can be restored...hard reset I guess?
And THANKS ALOT AX3L for an AMAZING set of tweaks...I can edit cabs so I can sift through and extract the tweaks I want...but for the average user who can't and wants to just install the cab...you need to do some work to fix up your CAB and make sure every tweak is compatible with 'most' devices
Or maybe you could just list out all your tweaks like this...cause it's not like any of these tweaks are secrets or your own...are they?
Thanks again!

Haret-0.5.2 (to boot Linux, this is just the loader, you still need to have linux on the SD card)
removed: Pimbackup (SpbBackup is more comprehensive and reliable)
In ExtROM:
-Replaced default Manila2d skin with knobi´s skin http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=693
Code:
01_ HTC_Enchasements.cab
02_HTC_AudioManager_2.0_1819.2129.cab

Gloomy V3.1b ROM for BA
ExtROM v.3.1b in .rar format
More info:
Backup all your data (other than SD Card) before flashing.
make sure on your SD card there is a folder called Exactly ExtROM containing the .cab and other files in the .rar
- Voip working, Just run Sip Config tool and in the proxy server enter for example sip.vyke.com (and you
can open a free account with them and get 1$ just go to www.vyke.com)
DO NOT install their client for Windows Mobile, it makes the blueangel very unstable.
I found a couple of bugs on the 3.1 image, main one that was not UC capable. That is corrected now with 3.1b
Also new ExtROM 3.1b unpack in root of SDcard and read the readme.txt
Screenshots:
Congrats on your new ROM. Please post some screen shots.
Off Topic: Either I've missed it or none has made one.. Anyone considering cooking a BA ROM with Voice Dialing?
Edit: WoW, very elegant BG. Thanks for the screen shots. Congrats again! I will place it on my list to test as soon as possible.
My pleasure.
I have experience cooking roms for linux devices but this is the first WinCE device I tackle.
Feedback is more than welcome!
Gloomy

Somewhere along WM5, a few cooks started putting Cyberon's Voice Commander in their roms, but because a lot of people preferred M$ Voice Command, they stopped (a quick reminder that VC cannot be cooked into a rom because it is licensed software)
@gloomyboy
What about the specs of the rom? (pagepool, Ramdisk - yes or no- , etc). Screenshots look good though... good job!
No RAM disk, about the pagepool I haven´t changed it from whatever Swampy had so he can better answer that question...

The ROM has a very beautiful interface. I have tried it and my first outstanding concern is with Windows Media Player. Unlike other ROM versions that I have used which give the user the option of pausing a media file when another application is in used, the WMP in this ROM simply stops and does not resume playback. So Gloomy, your ROM will be really great if you can address this Problem.

hello there
have just flashed this rom. good performance but i am having a problem.
i wonder if it's just me or is wifi not working well? i can get a connection- though it does tend to get disconnected quite often NOT because of poor signal.
Also, even when it's connected, apps cannot seem to recognise the connection and therefore cannot get online.
this has happened to one wifi connection at home 100% of the times i try to connect and also happens about 50% of times that I try on another wifi connection of a different router.
any suggestions?
p.s. ive never had any problems with other roms- ive tried most of them...
thanks

I had a similar issue with an older version of Swampy's rom. I am not certain of the reason why, but 20758 doesn't seem to have that issue anymore. One thing I did find out was that Weather Pannel was causing my connection to drop for no apparent reason. If you are using it, try to take it out of the Today Plugin and see if it still drops the connection.

thanks i think ill try that. i think ill try taking it off with m2d configurator.
I've been using and flashing swampy's basic roms of the past 3 months and they didnt seem to have this problem.....
anyway, ill post back
egzthunder1
i think my problem is kinda different as my connection is really being dropped that often. but rather, while im connected, nothing can recognise the conenction.
getting online via activesync and gprs is fine, just not wifi- very strange.
ive tried taking away the weather panel with m2dconfig; deleting the country; disabling auto update and so on but they didn't help unfortunately.
so...any more ideas?
btw i installed wifi profiles, tried to use it but uninstalled it in the end because it didnt help and it's not something i need. surely....thats irrelevant to my issue...
wifi and windows media player
About wifi, make sure in wifi settings, powermode you tick off 'turn off wifi when not in use for 2 minutes'
Instead turn it on and off manually when needed.
I use AKwifitoogle very happily, will probably add it to next rom.
About windows media player...
Have you tried loading a different windows media player cab file (instead of the one provied with the ExtROM)
If that works better please report the link and I will be happy to try it and if better include in the next release
Thanks to all who have tried the rom and especially for your feedback!

Hey my friend! Sorry I haven't been very active these days. Been going crazy playing with HTC Home Icons and Flash Home screens. Amazing stuff out there!!. Actually, I'm trying to find Colored Icon Bar, similar to those that are being posted all over for Touch Diamond. Haven't found one that works on BA Yet. Perhaps, maybe our icons are individual images? Didn't think about that.
Thanks for the info about M$VC.
At present, I'm using Swampy's ROM. It's the only one not driving me crazy with the BT and WiFi Issues. Will be testing GloomyBoy's ROM soon.
Any help with the Colored Icon Bar ?

Thanks mate. I'll work on it later this afternoon. I just got a new 2400ah battery and I need to modify the Charging cradle so the phone can sit on it with the new thicker battery. Hope I can get 5 hrs use I've read otherwise, but I'll keep the hopes alive. EgzThunder is also a very resourceful man. I'm sure he has on his back pocket a working battery bar (Oh Don't think I'm being lazy)

hi all im trying to stream a di.fm at work from a router to my phone but im having issues, it seems that if the phones active (the screens on and not in key lock mode) the radio works but as soon as lock the screen/keys and put it in standby while its in my pocket the phone decides to mess me about, ive tried two apps and i have issues with both
WMP:- works untill i standby my phone to lock the keys while its in pocket but then after a few seconds i get this error
coreplayer:- works until i press the END key to lock phone and it auto stops the playback. so i tried another way by leaving the phone to go into the standby/locked mode it self and it did but then after a few seconds it stops and i lose wifi connection
please help me i really need to sort this tonight. thank you
Wifi (for most people) switches off when the phone goes into standby. There's a thread discussing it, with a registry edit that makes it stay on, but it needs to be done every time you switch the phone on.
I'll whip up an application that runs every time you start the device and sets this registry key. I'll post that later, but for now, here's the thread...

wow, mate i ow you, i wish their was some how to repay you, thankyou loads, i will try this tonight

The posted zip and cab work, but you need MortScript installed. If you're happy with that, then go for it. The solution I've done doesn't need it though - it's just a cab file. I've put it in my sig, with the most imaginative name of "WifiNoStandy"
Hope it helps
ill install it now and test it out, thank you
EDIT: seems to work great will test all day tomorrow and report any issues if any, thankyou
BsBTweaks has a setting for that, I'm almost 100% sure of it. And it's a worthwhile app to have.

I can't find an option for that in BsB Tweaks, and someone on the WifiNoStandby thread (see my sig) has reported that it doesn't work. Anyway, BsB Tweaks only makes 1-off changes to registry. If it is in there, you'd need to run it every time you reboot.
I applied all of the stuff mentioned by royalbloodvi in another thread here:
[Solution] MUST-HAVE For X2 Users! Speed Tweaks & How to Disable "Slideview" & Panels
So anybody, that finds those tips useful enough for him, should go with those. My problem was, that even when I applied all of the stuff, phone was still laggy, had some SOD's, sometimes turned off by itself etc. Since there is still no official note from SE about MR2, I was desperately looking for an answer. Creation of X2 subforum made my search easier, after browsing some topics, I gathered all the info, and to make it easier for you, I exposed it in this topic.
All the credits go to the topic starters in here, once again, I just gathered and compiled the info:
Xperia X2: How to change language (re-flash an Stock Spanish ROM), dreamcrawler for translation and originating tips, gbajzelj for the final idea and ultrashot and lollylost100 that provided the X2 software cabs.
***********************************
Procedure:
1) Open SEUS (SonyEricsson Update Service), start a new update. EVEN IF IT SAYS YOU HAVE LATEST VERS, UPDATE IT ANYWAY.
Another version: click on Start/Settings/System/Clear phone memory, enter all the needed info. It will put phone back into original state (MR1 - since you updated your phone to that version)
2) ONCE IT REBOOTS, CALIBRATION SCREEN APPEARS. RIGHT AFTER CLICKING ON THE CROSSES, IT WILL APPEAR THE SONY ERICSSON LOGO, AND IT WILL START APPLYING THE CABS. PUSH THE RESET RIGHT after it starts applying (hidden behind the stilus, opening the battery cover).
3) After rebooting, the Sony Logo will appear again asking to retry. Press NO. Well by default this will keep on showing up every time you restart the phone, and it will also reset your time & date setting to some time in March. But I found a solution for that. With registry editor of your choice, search for Launch190 (HKLM\init\Launch190\CustAppInstaller.exe). Delete that value, and phone won't ask you again if you want to retry the CABS instalation, also it won't change your Time & Date setting again!!
IMPORTANT: After that, phone returns to original WIN 6.5.2 state, without BUGGY SE stuff. At that point, phone is usable, stable and fast. You will have about 220 MB of free space on your phone.
Now you can go further by installing some of the SE stuff, but this is all up to you, since I don't exactly know, which one causes the problems (except for SlideView and TileWave panel, as was stated in some other posts). Grab the X2 Program cab's here: R1BA023_Original_Cabs
Put the extracted cabs on your SD card, insert it into the phone, and install stuff you want. I installed those packages:
SEMCFlashDeployment.cab
SonyEricssonDialer_1.1.0.996_vulcan_generic.cab -> New Vulcan Dialer
TaskManagerSetup.cab -> Task Manager, obviously
Camera_R109_RC1_38986.cab -> necessary for Camera
CommManagerCab.cab -> Communication Manager
FastGPSSetup.cab -> without this GPS won't work, at least did not work in my case
JMMS_Ver4.5.113_26Feb10_SE_PPC.cab -> reminded by rsx19, this one is needed for MMS
After installation of those, restart the phone. At that point around 200 MB of storage space is left, and around 120 - 130 MB of ram left. Although, it is not necessary to install all of those cabs (except for Camera, which I think is needed, unless you don't want to use camera ), it is all up to you.
Also, since you requested, I'll put down some of the cabs that are needed for different settings. But keep in mind, I am not sure if anyone of those cabs make any troubles or instability. So If you find any trouble or instability after some cab was installed, let us know and together we might find some useful solution.
Ok, to install some of the aditional setting in Setting menu, first install MyCPLSetup.cab, as I discovered, this one is neccessary for following CABS for various settings:
MobileData.cab -> for mobile data settings (HSDPA, ..)
ClearStorage.cab -> installs Clean Phone Memory
PhoneSettings.cab -> updates the Phone in Settings/Personal
SetupSNM.cab -> installs new Sounds & Notifications under Settings/Personal..
For the Illumination to work, install those 2 cabs:
IlluminationSvc.cab
PatternsSetup.cab -> SE Illumination Patterns, don't forget to restart phone after you install those two, and go back to Sounds & Notifications to set the illumination for various events.
After you install those cabs (not necessary to install them all, it's up to you) restart the phone and options will show up in Settings or desired category.
Don't forget, when you finish with installation of cabs, do a restart / soft reset of the phone, since some changes may not show until a restart / soft reset is done!
Using the phone with Windows Default theme, it runs smooth. Also battery life so far seems to be improved, but will have to run it few more days to tell the difference.
So far, my phone is lightspeed fast and, which is more important - stable!! You can now also try to apply settings, royalbloodvi provided in this thread - maybe you get even better performance:
[Solution] MUST-HAVE For X2 Users! Speed Tweaks & How to Disable "Slideview" & Panels
Ok, some are still having problems with SD cards being unrecognized or disappearing, here is the patch: SD Card Fix
Accelerometer based rotation:
If you loose the rotation during the setup of CABS, and you still want to use it, this is how you turn it back on: with registry editor open (HKLM\Services\MultiService\mods\Rotation\AccelBasedRotationEnabled). If your rotation is gone, this key has the 0 value. Change it to 1 and you get your accel based rotation back. I have yet to find out, which cab disables it!
I'd like that you people give feedback in here, which CABs are safe and needed to install apart from those I (originally gbajzelj) posted.
PS
I personally don't like the idea of stripping the phone down to the bone to make it work. If you buy a new car, it works as it was send out of the factory..you don't need to unscrew half of the engine, disable the steering, take out the seets to make it work. Same is with computers, just everything. But until MR2 comes out and hopefully repairs all the damage that was done with MR1, this is the solution for me.
Also thanks to everyone helping to make this phone less bugy and somehow usable

After instalation of SPB Mobile Shell my GPS stop working. The only way to restore GPS working was to reflash mobile phone.

Hm, I tried and my GPS was also unresponsive, so I installed FastGPS and it helped!
its gbajzelj not gbanzelj ) np.
When i installed spb 3.5.3 and reloded weather info then when i turned off the phone and turned it on again the weather data was not saved and the wireless or data conscction did connect but did not load no new data from weather server. Skyfire did load the pages (the connection i guess did work) but spb shell did not load the weather data anymore.
i would also like if anione can make the camera button to open the camera app withouth the slideview. maybe a simple cab file just to set the camera button.
Sorry for typo
Does it ask you every time you restart the phone if you want to continue with setup?
If it does, did you notice that it resets the date? Thats a problem I'm trying to solve now Every time my phone restarts, date is set to 17. March -> maybe thats why your weather data is not reloaded??
For me, when I press the Camera button it opens the CameraApp. I installed only Camera Cab as you sugested, no SlideView, and it works!
Nice! This works perfect in conjunction with my other thread!
I have one question though for battery life issues: Which cab do I install to be able to turn off HSDPA? I've tried installing mobiledata cab but it doesnt show up..

It think you have to install MobileData.cab & MyCPLSetup.cab
And one question for you all, does phone ask you to continue with CAB installation every time when you restart it? And resets the date?

Looking into your answer right now...remind me, in which menu that setting use to be, I forgot already...

1) Settings -> Connections -> Mobile Data -> HSDPA Disable
2) Yes, it always asks to retry installing the CAB PLUS resets the date PLUS time all the time.
Just noticed it the time & date bug, this really bothers me =S
I just realised a lot of the cabs like clearphonememory cab doesnt show up in the start menu like mobiledata..

About the Time & Date bug, I think every time the phone starts as after I made MR1 update...so we must somehow find what is telling the phone that the software is not installed (if we trick the phone that is was fully updated and will not ask for retry at startup, this date & time bug will probably go away) - solution found, check first post
About missing things in Settings, I think it is all connected with MyCPLSetup.cab solution found, check first post
ok so the ACCELEROMETER WAS WORKING when i reset the phone, but once i installed everything you listed, auto rotate stopped working. what can i do to get it back? i really dont want to go back through the process again
Also which cab is 'sounds and notification' the one i have now doesnt have as many settings as before, and also which cab is for the optical pad.

You don't need to reinstall, just check the first post, I updated it with solution for that - you just have to change one registry setting!
For Sound & Notification settings install SetupSNM.cab! For the Optical I have yet to find out, I'm doing my best, but can't be that fast I guess I did about 10 reinstalls and about 100 restarts of the phone today
awesome, do you know which one is auto time update

You mean the Timezone tab in Phone settings? When it automaticly changes time due to time zone change?
In this case it would be:
TimezoneSvcSetup.cab
well like, before there was a auto time update check box, now i cannot find it, and ill install the right now and hopefully your right :]
EDIT, i still do not see auto time update
also does the SetupSNM.cab also include everything needed for the lights?
EDIT ALSO, add to your list since i assume most people use mms JMMS_Ver4.5.113_26Feb10_SE_PPC.cab for mms
What is 'settingspart1, settingspart2' are those extended settings?

For the Illumination, check first post
Thanks for the reminder on MMS, will add it now!
For the settingspart1 & 2, I have to check don't know yet
thankss a soft reset helped, and idk what settings1/2 do either
as for the sd card fix, it is needed, because my sd card went missing and when i went into the registry to fix it it was just like before and had to change the values to '0'
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Suspend]
"shc1:"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\Resuming]
"shc1:"=dword:00000000
also my phone doesnt vibrate, if i press preview it works but when i actually get a call/text it doesnt vibrate

Did you went back to the Sounds & Notifications and selected vibration? Becouse at the moment, only cabs I have installed are:
MYCPLSetup, SetupSNM, IlluminatonSVC and PatternsSetup, and illumination & vibration works for me. Or do a soft reset again, it might help.

Hm, don't know what your are your signal conditions with other phones, mine has a good signal and it does not matter, what I install..
illuminations work and all the settings are set, but still no vibe.
