Having customizations run in Rom is the way to go!

Yeah, this is a pretty much "fire and forget" ROM. Again, the ROM team did all the hard work, I just polished and packaged it.

Oh, and donâ€™t restore from a full system backup as youâ€™ll end up restoring pre-3.5 system files.

Can I get a little more elaboration on this? I'm a little confused on what exactly needs to be done here. do i copy cabs to the Extended_ROM2 directory to install the programs? or do i just install from my PC via activesync like always?

The latter. Install just like always, you'll just see Extended_ROM2 as an additional destination.

Third -- did you get that error tethering using USB Internet Sharing?

I haven't tried this ROM yet, but in Colonel's 3.5 ROM I am able to tether with Internet Sharing over USB without a problem.

I was about to try this one because of the constant 6 hour lockups with Colonels, but I must be able to tether, so if that's an issue, I will wait.

As well it should be, as it's just a polished version of the URP pre-release... Jumping the gun as it were.

Glad you like it. The ROM guys did all the hard work.

Not sure, I don't really have a good way to test that.

Thanks for answering my question Jeff!

I'm wondering why one shouldn't install today screen plugins to the Extended Rom -- I would think it runs faster and they would be better there. Can anyone clarify this? In my case, I would like to put Spb Pocketplus, Calendar + and Inesoft Address Book (which has a today screen plug in that I use) there.

I received the ERROR trying to connect via the wireless modem application in programs.

CMeys · #29 (**permalink**) 02-28-2007, 03:55 PM

My understanding is the the wireless modem no longer works for USB tethering (I don't think for BT) either in 3.5. You use the Internet Sharing program instead. Please try that and report back. What I don't understand is why the wireless modem has been left in all the 3.5 ROMs if it no longer works in that revision.
