Verizonguy's 3.5 Beta 2.1 (fixed usb, smartdialer, ##)

verizonguy · #1 (**permalink**) 02-20-2007, 12:47 AM

UPDATE: Beta 2.1 is now available for public testing. It is designed for Verizon users, but appears to be fully functional for Sprint users so please post here with your test results including your carrier.

It is very important that you hard reset after successfully flashing this rom.

You can change the bootup splash screen with the tools found on this site if you don't like my custom Verizon one.

With > Beta 2.1 you may now use different themes without breaking smartdialing.

Thanks go to Helmi for the original port to apache, ImCokeMan for continuing his work on the port and to Wideawake for hosting this site and making the guides and tools available to make this rom possible.

Enjoy.

Nice!

Please document your fixes when you get a moment verizonguy. We're all building off of each others' work here, so it would be great to learn what you did to solve these issues. From your comments I take it the smart dialing and ## code issues both relate to the phone skin.

yeah verizonguy if we could get what you did exactly to the rom or what registry changes you made and so on to get smartdialer and II working we would really appreciate it. thanks

I was just talking to ImCokeMan about that very thing. It's a bit embarassing but near the end, at around 4am and a 9 hour session, I accidentally deleted the wrong directory and lost all the work I had done....I had to pull the latest test rom I had off my 6700 and then work backwords to finish it, so I don't have the kitchen anymore or the full list of registry entries or modules.

I will most likely go back at some point and either make a base kitchen for everyone to use or at least a list of modules/registry entries.

Sure, nothing

This is beta2, so no additional functionality or toys. It's a base, plain vanilla, but fixes the annoying problems we've been living with in 3.5 like broken usb, ## codes not working, no smartdialer, etc.

Starting with the release candidate builds, I'll start introducing some basic but essential utilities and a couple of common tweaks.

It has the basic arcsoft mms, but the rest of the mms is setup by cabs from verizon, sprint, etc. .net2 will be added in RC versions. I'm watching the beta of .net to decide which version.

these secrets are killing me!

is this just a plain rom with the titled fixes? Any extras? Sounds like i'm just going to have to install this rom to see what verizonguy did.

Exactly

This is a plain vanilla with the much needed fixes. Later versions will have some utilities and tweaks. I believe in keeping roms relatively plain so people can customize their own without having to tinker with the rom itself much.

I concur. If anything maybe another version of this rom with Saridnour's tweaks and the bare essentials
