-Today plugin to see last call made or missed -configurable

-LIVEsearch (great mobile alternative for movie times, traffic, etc.)


I'd love to get this functionality on the new release if possible. Thanks and in case anyone asks, I've already tried unsuccessfully to google them.

Thanks for your help and for the great ROM!

1 - Now called PIM Backup, developed by a wonderful user at the xda forums and is not only free, but now can schedule backups

2 - That plugin is a mystery, dont remember where i got it, i got the cab file at home, ill dig it up for you later if you want, sucks you cant get it out of military time though

3 - livesearch ive posted 2 or 3x on the boards already, and i think its in the ppc software section.

glad to hear you trying the RC ROM, im to scared ><

Thanks Big J! I'd appreciate if you post or e-mail to me jagercola @ ignmail com. I'm going to do some searching on PPC for the live search. Thanks!

PS: Can't wait for the next version!

Dude, all ya gotta do is use WindowsLive.PPC2005_ARM.CAB for hotmail. It works like push, and has instant messaging built in. Works for me. Good stuff. I would recommend it to be included in the ROM, but it might be a resource hog and not for everyone. It's just that even with any potential problems I still like it for my hotmail.

colonel has the most updated windows live app in his rom and I can tell you that email and live search are not resource hogs. email actually pushes even though when you set the option it sometimes reverts to manual (still push regardless). Dont use messenger cos i didnt feel sync my messenger contacts, although there is an option for it to check with outlook for duplicates. But I can definitely tell you that it is much better than the pmsn that was in the stock rom. def a must have in your rom jbabey.

The last call plugin is part of the O2 pack. Someone here tore out just that plugin (thank God, it was the only thing I was still using). regardless, I know it's here on the ftp. If you can't find it I have it, let me know...

waitng, waiting...... :D

The only place I found it on the ppcgeeks ftp was in BigJ's kitchen folder. Even then the last call plugin was several files, I guess in the format to be included in a rom. They aren't an installable rom.

++++++++++++++++++++REVISION 9.6++++++++++++++
removed r9.5 and uploaded revision 9.6 Here are the changes
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


-Resolved Camera shortcut not showing up under programs
-Resolved BT-Audio lagging, now instantaneous and no longer prompts
-Resolved locking issues and application lockups by lowering the cache settings to free up more program memory and increase stability on older devices (a small % may need to fully disable FATFS cache)

-Added newest release of "PIM-Backup" now allowing scheduled backups
-Added Othello Game
-Added Space Invaders
-Added "Treo-like" Speed dial today plugin
-Added Weather application today screen plugin
-Added ext.rom unlock application (shortcut found under programs)
-Added PDF Viewer

-Removed Duckhunt (Pulled the game to lean more towards "retro" and to allow room for some other applications)
-Removed Batti (Found an alternative I like much more)
-Removed even more help files and pointless pictures from ROM Base



NOTES:: from this revision
This release is more or less a release for you guys, since we reached INCREDIBLE stability in the 9.5 release, I decided to gear this release more towards the feedback i was receiving with what to include in the next release as far as applications are concerned. There is the much anticipated weather application integration, the removal of "newer" games such as duckhunt and replaced by retro/classic type games. I fixed a few stupid mistakes from 9.5 like the camera shortcut and the BT-Audio routing being a hassle to use. I threw in the "neat" treolike speeddial today plugin that (believe it or not) has been around since the ppc6600 (wm3), and somehow lost to the pages of time until palm revived it. I dunno, i dont have much to say. This release was by far the most fun that Ive worked on, since I wasnt tackling retarded functionality issues, and the 2 solid weeks ive been running it, ive been extremely happy with its stability, even with all of the added today crap I put on the screen, it seems more "solid" than my previous iterations.

With this release completed, I will be taking a break for the next month or two, I really need to focus on my upcoming finals. Unless there is a showstopper, please dont expect a 9.7 for quite some time. I hope you guys enjoy this release as much as I do, and the larger majority of my co-workers! A few people have asked for my kitchen, PM me and we will discuss details.

________________________________

I opted out of the full RADIO EXT.ROM CE ... if you want to flash all of those, just grab the other two flash files from the official release before flashing. It works fine, ive done it several times. Ill post the blank ext.rom flash file i have if you Sprint people still cant figure out how to unlock and remove the garbage in there. Enjoy!
