x50v using WM6.1 of LennySh A09 ROM

[SKwan]

I have been using LennySH A09 ROM for one month. I am a heavy user of pda ... book, video, music and game. Below experiences are now shared with you.

1. Occassional hang 1-2 times per week.
2. Filesys hits 2 times per day.
3. Password error happens almost each time when I change battery . . unless ...
4. One book-reading program will exit itself when I power on the device again 1-2 hours later and try to use it.

5. Wifi is OK.
6. Infrared red is failed in beaming or receiving files.
7. BT seems not functional. It can be paired with other devices but failed in beamig or receiving files. After installing Broadcom BT Stack, the BT functions well just as in W2003SE.
   

I suggest below for who intend to flash their x50v with this ROM.

• Back up your system after some significant changes. As what I experienced, not all backup programs work fine on WM6 or this ROM. (Sprite Backup can do backup and restore without my attention; SPB Backup may needs a manually soft-reset when doing retoring.)
• Don't enable password lock unless latest major changes are backed up.
• Don't change the battery unless either 1)your device is being externally charged or 2) you haven't enabled the password lock.
• Try to install less programs in the device.
• Apply some tweaks to let your program files to be saved in the storage cards. (I use SKtools)
  Added on 24-Aug-08:
• Avoid from using additional today plug-in. (Today plug-in of Resco Explorer and SPB Insight seem increasing the frequency of filesys.exe kick-in)

Even though the filesys.exe issue still persists, I am still happy in using the ROM. If the filesys doesn't hit, it can play musics and action games smoothly at the same time ... it seems better than 2003SE. When filesys hits, sudden sluggish is not so significant if only playing the action game.

I agree with most of your findings, I had a problem with spb mobileshell freezing up the device after a power off power back on.It turns out it couldn't be stored on a memory card had to be put in main storage.My Opera Browser also runs better in main storage for some reason. Did you use the compaction tweaks? L11 is due out soon for the X50v, I can't wait.

L11 is already out. By reports, it's fast and reliable.

Agree! Using L11 right now. Just be sure to disable the annoying start sound. No WPA-PSK issue. Works great.

I am talking x50v ... not x51v.
A11 is ready for x51v but not ready for x50v! If I am wrong, please kindly post the link.

oops :embarrassed: I should read carefully before I post.

I know Lenny is doing something for x50v?
