Thanks I Dl'ed it, but what changes, if any, have you noticed that would entice me to move from my very customized 21232 build/ROM w/Calk's kitchen?

I'm just wondering if it's worth the effort to Sashimi this one or wait for a 2124x or higher build.

I modded Calk's 21232 as I like to clean it up a bit for my needs; I'm flashing 21234 now for laughs as I was able to quickly refit my 21232 config. Glad to hear you have better results; I hope memory management is better. GWES.exe was sucking RAM like crazy on 21232.

Thanks again; I hit he thanks button now

Update: So far so good. Looks like I have a bit more RAM on boot! Haven't had time to give it a real breakin test, but Storage and RAM report fine, so I'm happy. Sashimi away now 8-P

So after being continuously frustrated w/memory consumption of gwes.exe, I did some "cloud" research; aka, Google, and found some interesting info on how gwes can be configured. I can't say I have seen any immediate results, but as these do vary, give it a shot if you want.

What I did see immediate results from was reducing the size/depth of my start menu interface. I tend to use nested folders for navigation, and have many icons duplicated in various folders: eliminating the dups and some of the nesting drastically reduced my gwes memory use, navigation ease not withstanding. Using "fancy" icons also causes gwes to eat memory, so lean low on them if you want to save it. After making changes soft reset to see gwes.exe memory use reduction.

I'm going to see if using SPB MS3 is more memory efficient for main navigation.

Also, I observed Titanium panels do not effect gwes memory use, so perhaps using Titanium will be the better/future of navigation, which eludes to why M$ didn't make the start menu config. options a top priority.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

GWES- Graphics, Windowing and Events Subsystem.

There is a registry setting in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE] by the name of PORepaint. This setting determines how gwes handles the display.

By default it is set to 0- The display driver handles all suspend and resume operations.

Here is the possible setting quoted from M$:

ValueDescription
0- The display driver handles all suspend and resume operations.
1- GWE should save and restore the entire screen.
2- GWE should invalidate and repaint the entire screen.
3- GWE and the driver need to save video memory.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Edit: I'm now using File Explorer as a Menu Interface. Basically, I've trimmed my Start menu\Programs to a select few "always use" shortcuts. I then moved the remaining main Programs folder structure to my SD card\My Documents\Program Menu folder. I created a linked alias with File Explorer to this folder (using SKKV Shortcut Manager), set options for icon display and no links display in MSE, and viola... a menu system that's alphabetic, much easier to manage, and best of all... drastically cuts gwes.exe memory consumption! I really like this system a lot, and until M$ figures out how to have gwes.exe better manage memory, will never use the start menu for more than a few programs again. If you're looking for a very cool and memory efficient alternative to the PITA system in WM65, then give this a try, you may wonder why it isn't done this way by default.

Hmmm, experienced that a long time ago and mine was an attribute problem. You can handle different kitchens [that's where I envy you], am guessing you built with Platform Rebuilder, use ppck your result might be different.

Working on 6.5 all goes ok untill the sys 21232 and 21234. The sms screen shows white. The MMS works ok. I tried with some of the sys shared here and work with diferent mui files (spanish) cause i thought it could be translation error, but i keeps white.
Some idea?
