"ReplStoreCacheSize"=dword:00004096

3.5's default is 0.

Yep, that one was missing, as well as disabling the menu animations - that one does seem to make a world of difference.

I dunno about that - do a full apples-apples compare (make sure registry has all the same "speed" settings) - I am thinking 3.5 is at least the same, maybe better then 3.3 once the settings are the same.

Fortunately this time I dumped my whole 3.3 registry before slicking - I've been comparing the two and moving in stuff that seems to be missing in 3.5/

schettj: I have all the speed tweaks in my current 3.5 ROM that I had in my 3.3 and I still think the screen re-draws and little "pauses" are greater in 3.5. This may be just slightly but I still think they are there. I also had the animate off in GWES in both "pr" releases as I already knew that one made a big difference

Well, I'm not seeing it here - my glyphcach is 4000 hex, maybe that's it? The new icons are a bit more to draw, I suppose.

Overall (now that I've corrected most of the stupid errors I introduced) it seems more stable then 3.3, that's for sure. 3.3 would drop the EVDO data connection (arrows go away) and then not be able to re-connect. 3.5 dropped the arrows once, but reconnected all by itself when I surfed the web. That alone is worth it.

(did you notice error reporting is enabled in the 3.5 kitchen by default?)

Hi, All:
I made my customized AKU3.5 by including the .NET CF2 OEM module. I did not realize that it already has the .NET CF 1.0 version built in. Anyway, when I run the WiFiFoRum application which requires .NET 2.0, I got exception stating .NET 2.0 is not installed. I did notice two versions in Windows folder and registry. It seems that .NET 1.0 is enabled, but 2.0 is not. How do I switch to 2.0. Thanks.

I have .net cf 2.0 in my rom and for some reason when I install programs that need it, it says a newer version of .net CF is required than the one installed. Is there a reason why the program is not recognizing that .net cf 2.0 is in the rom? Anyone else having this problem?

[darksine]

I removed the .net module built into the kitchen and replaced it with .netcf2 from the ftp (tried the combined 1 and 2 but that did not work). After that, I have been able to run .net cf 2 programs fine.

I made a new 3.3 and 3.5 rom with the same feature set (and tweaks) and new tweaks and ran them both. I think 3.5 is now the winner in speed with the new changes. I also downgraded to my last public rom just to verify and think 3.5 is at or better in speed. Shoudl have a new rom out in a day or so if anyone wants to see for themselves.

What are the new changes?

Would like to add them to my rom

[saridnour]

master_shake: the fsreplxfilt key mentioned earlier as well as a pruneing of the cf 2.0 keys as well as the cleaning of some unneeded files in the windows dir. Still testing what I have changed but will post them around the time I put the rom out.
