changelog for custom rom by cmonex edition 1.0.
(as firmware version in control panel, NEC firmware info applet!
)
important note: this is first edition so a little bit experimental. flash it if you want to play. it isn't too half assed though, i tested it quite fairly. some apps and tweaks are experimental as well, the skin and the isotherm IE fix. let me know if you like them and they will be kept!
also, the IE speedup fix will be developed further anyway.
flashing instructions: flash this only if you already have bootloader 4.10!!
this is important!
you can flash it with the update exe but you should reformat your cf card and do not put SABOOT.NB0 on it, to prevent extra bootloader update
(which would be pointless
). or you can flash it using the C+F keys, this one doesnt require your AC being plugged in.

Removed

- net .cf 1.0

PLANS TO UPDATE THIS WITH
- new skin, first one is half experimental, but i can keep it if you all want. new skin will be either a newer xp silver or for fun, a new one, xp royale or vista.
- some cool new apps and tweaks TFGBD sent me
- evb
- improved spreadsheet
(same as default one but it will be able to edit xls files, hopefully
)
- hpc2000 office if it does make its way to cenet
- improved msn messenger CE if i can do it.
- better remote desktop
(connect disk drives
), smb
- basic bluetooth support maybe
- new aygshell, new coredll etc...
- more ideas not detailed yet
- i await your suggestions
custom updater bootloader
(no risk, it won't be flashed in
) will have to be used with the next editions as they will have too much stuff for the standard one
IMPORTANT AGAIN: please let me know if something doesn't work right.
i know of two things that dont work fully, the SIP
(i dont know why, i will ask TFGBD, he probably forgot to give me some registry entries
) and new GWES prevents the screen click sounds but that's turned off by default anyway.
one more thing, a little bit of ram is consumed by the new skin but it isnt too much.
link soon!
