QUOTE(dario69 @ Jun 25 2007, 11:26)  Talk about a freaking nail biter. Thanks Paul. This worked out perfect. Great instructions. 26+ megs free after reboot. That is with Voice Command disabled and other mild tweaks to the Today screen and startup services. Awesome. dario69, can you recommend, or provide tips on disabling Voice comand and your other tweaks to the Today screen and start up services? Thanks - Wayne |

Thanks - Wayne i'm pretty sure you can just move the file ( voice command.lnk ) from the startup folder to anywhere else ...like a storage card, or other folder.

Here's a new idea for the Wing users... rather than doing the HexEdit thing, you can apply one of these patchers below to your part02.raw file - to do the edit for you - then just flash back. To use, copy to the same directory as your raw file and run!
So, THESE PATCHERS REPLACE STEP 4, note that they overwrite the part02.raw rather than creating a new file, so when you flash back you flash the part02.raw filename. Let me know how it works out  P PS These patchers have CRC checking enabled, so should be very safe!

I really think running this would make the Wing a hella lot better but I don't want to brick it. with this patch that danger is gone right? And if for some reason something goes wrong what should I do to start over again? ty, malena ps. if someone doing this would make a video of it it would be sooooo appreaciated. just a suggestions

If you can't use the command prompt, I strongly suggest you don't do this tweak.

QUOTE(Paul (MVP) @ Jun 24 2007, 13:45) Eek, so I assume it won't boot? This is exactly why it's risky before a RUU is released. If there was a RUU, you could now put it in bootloader and reflash to revive it.  P It booted initially but I kept getting errors and it was slow as hell. So I did another soft reset. It never made it past the Windows Mobile loading screen again. Thats when I checked the dump and realized my error. If anyone else makes my mistake, and they get it to boot once, hopefully they can correct it then. I got my replacement already though so all is well, this wing even has less play in the slide and overall just seems to have a higher build quality. At least it will be once I get my replacement invisible shield, hopefully that'll come in Friday or Saturday.

When I run the patcher, I get an error that the file that it's meant to patch isn't the same as the file that I have. Tells me that maybe the file has been patched already, but I know for a fact that it hasn't since I even made an extra copy of it. Do some wings come with slighly different firmware? I edited the file by hand, too, but that message that the patcher gave me scared me out of using it....

That's the same version as mine, so that's a bit odd
