[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
the version i have made and using atm is black, looks a lot better, but still designing the layout.

it should look something like that pic but black ;)

however, with my menu included in the rom it meens i can remove additional programs etc to free up some small amounts of memory, which all add up!

atm its down by aprox 1-2mb (hopefully more :D)

there is one downside/bug with the menu, all the programs cooked into my rom will have icons but new programs that users install wont have icons. they will be listed in the menu though.

my menu will search for .lnk in the start menu and display them in my menu.

i have not cooked any .lnk in the start menu/programs folder, this is so new programs can be listed.

thanks

Rn

ill uplad a screenshot of the black menu later :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bodisson:
I was thinking a bit (surprise!) and one question occured to me:

is it wise to cook programs still in developement in your ROM (like XDA Facebook)?

I'm not cook, so I'm not sure what uninstalling program cooked in ROM and installing new version brings...

On the other hand, you might look for the program called Persian Blue. It gives some advanced options to BT file transfers... (this idea occured to me when I saw WiFi Monster in added programs list)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
Tfi friday!

sorry my pc bluescreened on me last week, or the week before i cant remember, or i probably choose not to remember the traumatic experience of having to reinstall windows :(

anyway, i managed to salvage my kitchen by installing the new copy of windows to a differant hard drive, the kitchen didnt work and blah blah blah, it does now.. so for the next week ill pick up where i unfortunatly had to stop working on the rom.

ill add Persian Blue as requested, however there is a lot of changes in 1.2 and it will be ready on friday next week.

the start menu is looking better than the previously uploaded screenshot, there will be a few bugs with the new start menu that i cannot avoid (yet), although i have tried to overcome these (ill explain soon with screenshots).

@Bodisson

lol supprise :) haha

however i already updated xdafacebook to the latest version in the next release of raving_rom 1.2, as with wimospeed etc but if you do find programs out of date, feel free to let me know and ill see what i can do.

cooking programs still in developement like XDA Facebook, why not?

after-all my rom is still in development too, this is my own personal rom so ill continue to update regularly ;)

thanks

Hi,

I'm from China and quite glad to see a 6.1 ROM as HD is almost in dust in this forum.

But I can't download you firmware as Chinese governement firewall block it......

If possible, can you upload the file in a much more common file server.

Thank you very much.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:

when will v1.2 be released?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
hi dude (s),

i had to reinstall windows

AGAIN!

(think i might have dodgy hard drives :()

anyway, i cannot get photoshop to run on my pc now, always error on launch.. all i need is 7 icons for the start menu and 1.2 is ready.

#for those that want to help, i need icons for:

*close all

*google translator

*pim backup

*shake & save

*xf mobile

icons must be .PNG format and 64x64 (black or transparent background)... the other two icons not listed here are for folders, ill have to do these myself so they look like the other folder icons.

thanks

Rn

*fyi - i wont be including PersionBlue in my rom, after several attempts to cook it in, it always displays an error. sorry.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
ignore last post

finally got photoshop to work now :D

ive done the icons i need, +improved the quality of other icons in the start menu. (some icons will need to be changed for 1.3 - let me know which icons you want changing and ll change them)

also, i found out why i kept getting errors when adding persianblue, it was something on my sd card causing an error. (soo.. formatted sd, then cooked persianblue and now no error - it will be included in 1.2 ;))

ill need 1day to go through and check the rom, sorry for a late update but cant help PC problems :rolleyes:

ill upload new screenshots in the first post, ill also make the download links "dead" so no more downloads for 1.1

thanks

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:

(ill be checking the rom tonight before i release)

the download link for v1.1 is now dead.

(no more downloads for v1.1)

no sense/manila yet dude, im also looking into a version with spb mobile shell 3.5

thanks

Rn

ps, using blackstone to upload screenshots (afk atm) but ill make a new post when they are up, they will replace the screenshots in the first post.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
New Screenshots Of V1.2:

this is the main change/update in v1.2 - my new start menu etc.

when a user installs an app there is usually a link that gets put into:

"/windows/start menu/programs" - my start menu will read this folder and if there are any .lnk files in that specific folder then it will display the .lnk

the folders that it will do this for are "/windows/start menu/programs" which will list them in the "start menu" page. also "/windows/start menu/programs/games" but obviously the games will be listed in the "office & games" page.

when it lists .lnk files in these specific folders they are listed in my start menu without an icon. (eg, "o2.lnk") it is a small bug but hopefully in the future there will be a fix.

"registry" page only lists the left/right soft keys atm but in 1.3 there will be more to customise. (soft reset to apply registry changes)

the new start menu is also very touch sensitive. (finger friendly)

like i said before, if you want me to change the icons, just ask :)

thanks

Good news / bad news

yo dudes,

firstly the bad news.

*on the 23rd @ 11 AM i kinda deleted my EXT folder from my kitchen :eek: by accident!

*for those that dont know what the EXT folder is, its a folder with all of my added programs, customisations, registries etc - a huge part of raving_rom!

*obviously this is the reason why it was not up for download that day (the day i was meant to upload it, this happened :rolleyes: typical lol)

ok, now for the good news.

*ive been working non stop on the rom since this happened :cool: (hardly any sleep and a lot of head fuks haha)

*with a bit of luck i had a copy of the original raving_rom kitchen so i managed to salvage lots of stuff but.. there is lots of changes in 1.2 :rolleyes: so for what its worth, id like to mention that what i have done in the past few months, i have now re-done in 3days.lol :D haha (busy busy busy!)

*ive now rebuilt a fully functional EXT for v1.2, but... the rom size is not what it should be, its an extra 8mb!

*i have managed to get it down by 5mb

(current rom size is now 116mb - but it should be 112mb)

the download will be avaliable today ;)

@wbecat - the mirror will be uploaded by SimonWm so as soon as he gives me the link for the mirror, i will add it to the first post (just for you ;) haha)

thanks

Rn
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
download link here for 1.2

ill update the first post later with screenshots etc

however there is a few bugs!!!! (only noticed them when i was afk)

i have tried making a quick fix for the bugs, most are are fixable by overwriting some files and im currently working on the last part of the fix now

Rn
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cziter:
i'm already downloading it, later I'll try it out and tell you about any bugs found and an overall opinion ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
kk thanks dude :)

the bugs that i have noticed so far are:

*pimbackup page title is displayed as "registry" (fixed)

*pim mortscript (fixed)

*onenotemobile.exe is labled wrong inside "office & games" page (fixed)

*gesture.exe is missing from rom = wave2answer (fixed)

*reset.mscr is missing from rom (fixed)

*togglebt.exe is missing from rom (fixed)

*persian blue is listed in "connections" and "start menu" pages (no fix yet but for now just delete the .lnk from /windows/start menu/programs)

*"registry" page not working properly (no fix yet)

for now please test and report bugs (the only reason there is bugs is coz of stupid delete button on my keyboard ;):D)

ps, i managed to get the rom size down by another 2mb (just thought id mention)

Sir, I HOPE you can make a BLUE 6.5 version of this ROM. For now, I'll wait for your 6.1 ROM release on Monday (that is, if I can still suppress this nasty obsessive-compulsive itch to flash) & download it. ;) Thanks for sharing your ROM.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
i am gona try and make it possable for themes in 1.3 but ill sort this 6.1 version before starting a 6.5 version, but yeah why not :)

new download here

ive updated bugs list in first post and change log 1.2

can someone check bluetooth in comm manager? :rolleyes:

EDIT:

*bluetooth in comm-manager is fine :)

*xdafacebook v4.7.3 is missing from /program files/ (fixed - download]

(yup, i forgot to do initflashes/app.dat when updating it last night, but ill create a mortscript to fix it, ill upload it asap, just run the mortscript and it will copy the xdafacebook files from windows folder to /program files/xdafacebook/...)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] darthnol:
Sir, most users prefer the themes as add-ons. Anyway, its your choice since you are the chef. Somehow, may I suggest adding a Radio(1.17) & Ril so that other users can flash a ROM that's ready to rock? ;) Sorry if I have been too dependent on NRGZ's 2.1916 ROMs but somehow, flashing a ROM that is ready to use is less time-consuming for some busy bees & ROM-Flash addicts!!! :) All said, I'm still downloading your ROM tonight & flashing it tomorrow!!! Oooo-yeah!!! My flashing itch has won. ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
kk i was thinkin of doing themes as add-ons to keep rom size down :)

*themes should skin the entire device.. (new start menu, today, welcomehead, everything i can basicly :D)

*this will take some time so just one colour at a time..

*blue first seen as it was the first request..

if you want a specific theme colour, just ask and ill add it to the Add-Ons list :)

erm, wont be adding a radio.nb with my rom any time soon..

*not everyone uses the 1.17 radio

*there are more requests for no radio than with a radio atm ;)

anyway, let me know what you think dude :D

thanks

ps, ill private message you when the blue theme is ready for testing

Hi, I can't seem to get the clock on the main screen to display in 24h format, even though in clock settings it is set as such as well as in regional settings, can anyone help ? strangely enough it displays fine when the screen is locked, but once unlocked it reverts back to 12h format

I'm using Beta v1.2
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] raving_nanza:
hi dude,

thanks for downloading and testing my rom :D

*the time format on today is not handled by windows, you will need to go into:

program files/rltoday/default/skin.xml

now change this line:

<DigitalClock x="85" y="40"

format="HH mm"

color="RGB(255, 255, 255)"><Font size="110" font="tahoma" /></DigitalClock>

HH will set it as 24hour clock

in a future update of my rom i will make a script that will change this setting

you will need to tap&hold anywhere on today and refresh the today.

.................................

i have added weather to my rom and on today screen, it is now [//////////] 100% complete :)

*Liverpool UK = user input so you can put what ever you want here, eg your name or location etc etc

*weather image will update to eg, sun/rain/snow/storm/fog/sleet etc

(just run the weather app and let it update.. the image on today will update in 60seconds)

.................................

there will be another rom update of v1.2 very soon..

*weather on today will be included in the next update

*xdafacebook fix will be included too

*ill try and fix the registry/softkeys page in the start menu

(might have to do this with a mortscript = no answer from JMHL)

*radiox will be included too

thanks

Hi super man

glad you are still working on 6.1.

I'm now using a native 6.1 without Manila.

*I can change city

*some picture to show different weather condition

And I also wish I can put some program icon on desk so I can easily to

*open folder

*start music player

*start ucweb(a web browser)

*start MSN(or libfetion in China)

Suprise you reponse so quickly.

To be honest, I only ever test you 1.1 version. So I don't remember some detail

I wish

*google map can be here. A lot of ROM remove it.

*resco file/folder browser is better at least in my opinion. I wish you can also help include it.

*allow user choose not to use lock.(I don't like to move a bulk to enable the phone personally)

Of course, this is personal opinion.......others may be against me

you will need to install winrar to extract my rom from the .zip folder, download from here

(download and run)

now download advancedRUU from here

now put this inside the folder with my rom (.nbh file) and run the advancedRUU

let me know if this works... or not :)

....................

v1.2 much better than v1.1

*google maps could be cool

*resco file/folder viewer is not freeware so i cannot add this to rom

*i could add an option so you can add programs to the exclusive list for the lock?

(if your app is open the device will not lock - eg opera10 is set like this)

thanks

1.3

hi dudes,

1.3 should be good to go next week sometime - if all goes to plan :)

*i have finaly fixed my scripts for customising the small circular buttons on today, atm ive got it so you can rearange the ones that are currently avaliable - @start/personal/today/Rn Customise/position/program...

sorry its taken so long to get this avaliable. ive had to add this to my start menu and write over 100 scripts to add this feature. 10 scripts per program but only 20 were working this morning :cool:

(i dont know if in 1.3 or 1.4 will include all the cooked in programs with this option, it is a lot of work)

*ive also added an option to my start menu which will add the large quick launch programs on the bottom of the today.

however, you will need to type the full path of your program eg, \programs files\xxxx\xxxx.exe

*as ive said before, ive managed to add weather to the today too, if you click the weather image it will launch the weather program and update, but set to Liverpool UK as default ;)

*1.3 rom size is currently @ 114mb

(which is only +3mb - however i do have a plan on how to free up some memory, saving that idea for a rainy day :D)

as usual i will upload screenshots later

thanks

*select a position..

*choose a program..

*all the scripts will overwrite whatever is currently in that postition.

*just fixed a few minor bugs with position 10, im also trying to get it to play a sound and then vibrate once the new program is set, i do know how to do this but its not bloody working so gona task29 in a min :mad:

*btw, when the device first boots up there is no circular icons on the today, the today has just a clock and weather so it will need customising by the user :)

instead of writing pure scripts (10 scripts per program +editing the other scripts for the other programs).

im gona write 1 single script to basicly write the scripts for me, hopefully it will be this same script for changing the skins and a lot more :D

ive basicly got the script working, but its gona be a lot easier than doing each script individually, a lot quicker too :)
