no. just choose the one named "latest.nbf".

colonel 02-04-2007 04:26 AM

Choose the latest nbf if you know what it is and how to use it. If not, choose the latest intaller. Beta3 will be out soon enough.

02/02/2007 01:29PM 46,069,062 Colonel3.3beta2SprintNoJunkExtRom.zip

That is what is up on the FTP site so I downloaded the Custom 3.3.rar and when I uncompressed it, it was titled AdvancedCustom.exe I installed it just now and noticed a few programs are missing from the ROM of yours that I installed a few days ago.
Missing programs I dont see are:
Htc Task Manager (X button app)
SIP Changer
SmartsKey
Pocket RAR
UPX4PPC
Pocket Xpdf
batti
psShutXP
.....


Those are what I noticed were missing. I really miss those programs. Were they left out on purpose?


i was wondering the same thing myself..

redz1234 02-04-2007 07:31 AM

so after getting colonel's rom to work.. just finished installing all my apps and everything is good to go... i'll paste a list of apps in the morning... didn't feel like going out tonight so i was able to get everything done.. check the temp below and you'll understand why..

is that negative 36? jeez thats cold we had a high of 85 yesterday....sweating bullets over here....gotta love miami

mcevoke 02-04-2007 12:54 PM

Ok, updated again, this time I used my SpB backup to restore only my schedule & contacts. Then hand installed all my software.

Everything went great till I installed my phone skin.

The phone gets all crapped up when I touch the X to close, or open speed dial. If I strip out my phone skin (pauly ETEN wave III) it works great again....

Other wise everytime I use the phone I have to soft reset...

Colonel can you leave the default phone in the build??? I think your skin is messin me up...

eyeballz 02-04-2007 12:58 PM

Beware of the HTC task manager app - on the vzw 6700, not sure about others, It locks up the phone and soft resets. Ive seen it on Helmis, colonels,

I would recommend disabling it. Something isnt working right there.

How do you disable it when it's in the rom? I think I deleted the registry entries for it. Is that all that needs to be done?

There certainly are a bunch of needless apps up in here huh? That being one of them and the following being another...

I did the same for O2+ because that program is garbage compared to SPB Diary and all the functions of it- especially the email ability right on the today screen. Gotta love it! :)

How do I change the bootscreen?
 
Colonel,

Thanks for answering my questions on your 3.3 ROM. I finally got it installed and working perfectly. It still freezes up sometimes on email and on IE, though.

My last question is on the boot screen. You installed a sideways "K", and I would like to change it to something else. I searched this forum and also PDAPhoneHome.Com, but didn't find anything other than "splash screens".

Any suggestions?

Well if you look in this very subforum you will find a thread called: "Splash Screens". Read it and you will know everything.

colonel 02-04-2007 02:04 PM

eyeballz, is your error something about trying to restart the shell?

mcevoke, there is no "skin" per say, all I did was swap out the standard light blue bitmap images of buttons and backgrounds for different ones.

ImCoKeMaN 02-04-2007 02:45 PM

For the phone app freezing issue i've seen that type of thing before when it is "hard closed" Instead of HTC X app i use magic button and there is a setting to "keep alive" which allows it to just minimize the critical apps. I also use this for the activesync (push email). Not sure if there is a similar setting on the X App, but if so that would most likely fix it.

gsessons 02-04-2007 02:47 PM

what is the diffrence from aku3.3 and beta 2. And I already have your custom aku3.3 (which it does work real good), is the beta 2 a better update. or should I just keep the custom aku3.3. You know I want the best for my ppc 6700................Thank You!

colonel 02-04-2007 02:54 PM

Beta2 improvements are listed on the first post. The beta3 nk.nbf is up on the ftp site. It is even better with MMS and Internet Sharing along with other fixes and such. If you extract an installer into a folder with Winrar, you can easily see the nk.nbf and ms.nbf files. Just remove these and replace the nk.nbf with the one on the ftp. Then run MaUpgrade utility and you will have the latest.

Yeah, thinking about dumping the HTC X button and going with magic button. I have run into a couple of these errors\resets and figured that was the cause. You would think something produced by HTC wouldn't cause issues like this, but it does.

On you next cookin' please add this value to the registry.


HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\ Suspend, add a new DWORD called btl1: (make sure the colon is there), with a DWORD value of 2

Cheers,

Michael

It is dec

Cheers

colonel 02-04-2007 03:03 PM

Sorry, must have missed that Mike. I am putting it in now. I assume that this fixed your issues with bluetooth turning off.

Alwaysbelieve1 02-04-2007 03:22 PM

None of your files are showing up on ftp except one which your File: Colonel3.3beta2SprintNoJunkExtRom.zip 44990 KB 2/2/2007 1:29:00 PM

bonuts 02-04-2007 03:34 PM

I just deleted almost everything by accident
 
I can't believe I did this and hate to admit it, but I just deleted almost all the files from the FTP site. I was using FTP thru IE and mistook it for my own local hard drive. I don't have local copies to replace the files either. I'm really sorry.

My friend would probably say they've expect this from an ahole like me.

Anyway, I never would have dreamed that the ppcgeeks login account has delete priveldges.

Sorry!

EDIT: I do have a local copy of the unrared installer and yesterday's 3.3.3 nk.nbf, so I an uploading it until someone can fix what I've done. Keep in mind, this is not the .exe installer, you need to us MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe to upgrade.

colonel 02-04-2007 03:35 PM

Try opening it in Windows Explorer like it says at the top of the ftp page. See if the files aren't actually there.

Alwaysbelieve1 02-04-2007 03:43 PM

All of Colonel's files are gone now!!! :( :( :(

colonel 02-04-2007 03:53 PM

Oops, LOL. I will get them back up in a little bit. No problems. I will also get with Mike about this issue.

gsessons 02-04-2007 03:56 PM

I hope this one is not hard to do, I will try it tonight when I go home. (SSSHHH I'm at work) But is this easy to do and do I do a flash...

4 Door Skyline 02-04-2007 03:57 PM

You don't need one if you just use installer files from other roms.

You don't build it. All you do is extract another insaller and delete that nk.nbf file and then copy the one you want over. Then hit the MaUpgradeUt_noID file and it will install everything for you perfectly. It is very, very easy.

My upload showed. I put 2 "latest" ones in there, but deleted one. There should only be one in there from me.

Alwaysbelieve1 02-04-2007 04:41 PM

If we all band together to get these files up they will be in there in no time. :)
