hi cracing,

noted few facts that i thought i should share. some are my personal preferences though...:)

1. there is almost 1 inch gap between task bar and the flip clock in the home screen. cant we utilise that space for something?

2. noted that the flip clock on the lock screen does not show the weather. nice if that worked too.

3. secure box works better than my previous experiences. but sometimes there is no alert. got to keep on checking the secure box. if you have anything secure, that is.:):cool:

4. nice to have the xt hack. but the rotate manila function does not work properly. screen rotates, but, stays blank.

5. the little "x" that you use to select certain details, messages to be deleted for example. (used to check the boxes) is red. is there anyway that you can make it green?

6. nice if you could add more short cuts next time. cht would be most welcome.

7. and how do i change the font of the phone. i read the readme file included, but, pls excuse me i am not a tech guy and find difficult to understand what to do exactly.:D

i ll add more as i go along. got to say this is the best rom i used so far...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
I will answer to your dis likings, requests and issues.

1. Yep, will try to make a ROM with CHT and of course editor will be included.

2. Its the max size of icons. 3x rows. There are tweaks to make 4x and 5x rows but I don't mind to include. Though the icons becomes smaller

3. Yep, I do have plan as well. :)

4. I think its better to leave to users to install Android Loader app. If I get more requests, I will include.

5. Users task as well. :)

6. You should get the correct cabs. i.e 6.5.3 taskbar icons. Give me the link instead, I will check it out.

1. Its the operator bar where the sim card NSP name is mentioned. Though its official design. Cannot messed it. :p

2. Its my own skin, it shows only clock. It doesn't flip nor show weather. In CHT, Lockscreen supports weather but not sure.

3. No idea, haven't used it. May be thats how it works and there aren't updates of that feature either. :(

4. The manila included doesn't support rotating. In other words, latest manila doesn't support rotating or isn't designed perfectly.

5. Red is because you have to be caution as its deleting option. Making it green doesn't make sense. :p

6. You mean shortcuts in Quick Links (Manila Home)? if so, its user task as well.

7. Its simple but should be careful and not to mess around with other things. Here is how:

a. Open Regedit from Start -> Utilities

b. Navigate to path, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\SYSFNT

c. Double tap on Nm

d. Write the font name* and tap ok/tick

e. Close the app and reboot system

*Note: Default font is Tahoma and custom I have used is Helvetica Neue OTS. If you have your own font, place the file in windows dir and write the font name (not the font file name) in Nm reg key as said above.

Glad to hear you liked my ROM. :)

You're welcome. Enjoy the best. :)

hi cracing

hi

thanks for the reply. changed the font following your instructions.:)

here is the link to the start button icons that would not install:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=673815&highlight=start+button

please tell me where i went wrong...

couple of another issues i ve noted :o

1. is there any way to stop saving the sent messages? tried the xt hack. it's not working :( not a real big issue anyway since you can manually delete. but easier if it was available. also it would be nice to have the option in the menu to wipe out all messages (sent, inbox, deleted) without having to manually select each category.

2. the zoomer app is essential for me. unfortunately it doesnt work properly. it zooms, but, cant navigate within the zoomed page. and pls tell me what htc magnifier is? does it in anyway interrupt the zoomer app?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
Ok good to know that you changed the font.

As of startmenu icon, its related to the theme. HTCclassicblue_bubble_flag.png is the default startmenu icon image which will be replaced when you install that cab. But the thing is, the theme is using different png file named as ecogreen_65x_bubble_flag.png. So thats why its not working. :)

Let me know which startmenu icon you want (in that 29 icons) and I will make a cab to work on my ROMs.

1. Official it doesn't support but to make it possible, need to dig around xda threads. See if you can find or else I will be finding too.

2. Which zoomer app you are using? By default zooming in specfic apps only supports (i.e htc album, file explorer, Opera)

Thanks...

Best Regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kanishkapd:
thx

you keep me astounded with the fast replies..:D

i was using icon 24. and thats wat i d like to have.:o

ok...i will too look around for the sent messages issue. the zoomer app i used was zoomer for the htc hd2 by bernd. m. walter. cant remember from where i got it. if you can recommend any other zoomer, i d be willing to try out.

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
lol

Here you go. I have edited the file name of the icon image inside the cab. Hope it works. May be the doner had used reg thing to change the file name to one you used but may be he doesn't know or etc.

Ok I will look for zoomer app as well. May take some time to test as I'm using WP7 now on my HD2 now. :p

Thanks...

hi cracing

hello,

1. i installed the bsb tweaks to resolve the zoom problem i needed help with.

xt hack doesnt seem to have any developer support now..any reason for choosing that instead of bsb tweaks?:) (i m concerned whether its ok to use both these apps at the same time)

2. the bad part is that zoom is still not working.:(...sometimes zoom is very essential for my work. could it be any conflict with the rom? bsb and zoomer apps worked well with my previous roms. i m told that different chefs use different methods and some issues can be solved with minor adjustments.

i m sure you can point out a solution:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
1. No idea why I'm using XT hack and not bsb tweaks. I guess disabling rotation option works in xt hack and not in bsb tweaks and that could be the reason but not sure.

2. I will checkout asap. Sorry for inconvenience.

Thanks...

hi cracing,

noted following issues,

1. while using opera 9.7, i get "out of memory" error message. asking to close tabs. even when i m using only one tab.

2. people tab>all people> select contact> menu> see more information

soft keys dont work. have to use hard buttons.

Just wondering why the phone says 6.5.3.1.4, but this post says 6.5.3.1.6? Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
Glad to hear. Mind to change your signature and add my ROMs name? :p

Sorry no multilingual for now. :o

Theme looks good. A modification of official theme. I will try out asap. :)

1. Yes out of memory is somewhat know issue. Have to dig around forums.

2. Ok will checkout.

3. Nope, bit busy with other things and I still haven't flashed WM on my HD2. :o

Thanks.

No worries. Sometimes the version numbers might not be updated. If the ROM package name says the correct version then the ROM version will be same as well.

Thanks...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
I understand your feelings but making multi language ROM isn't so easy. Most of packages I used are translated from htc chinese ROMs i.e oboe, husa. I know only english and using translators I was able to translate them but the same thing doesn't go well with other languages. Most app language files aka MUIs doesn't sign after modifying.

Most of chefs use MUIs from older versions into new versions of apps but it gives troubles or lacks features in some sorts.

I'm not so good to help or solve troubles. :o

hi cracing,

got another issue...my fault actually..:)

i installed that theme in my earlier post, dg zenith theme. now the start menu icon you modified for me does not work any more...i tried re installation, tried the original start menu icon, soft reset...notthing worked. please look into this and tell me what's wrong, when you can spare some time. the original thread to start menu icon is below.

No worries. I made that cab to suite the theme I have in the ROM. now I have made an another cab which should work on any ROM, no matter which theme you select or install. Just reinstall this cab when you apply a theme. :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
Pleasure to do so. :)

Steve0007 had done the same which would have helped lot of ppl. Now he is out of WM as well. :o

BTW; today I'm free so stay tuned. I'm gonna checkout whats the problem zoom and let you know asap.

Looks good, thanks a lot... :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
Ok I tested the zoomer app and couldn't find a way how to move the page when zoomed in. I guess its how it works. You have to punch to zoom in the area which you want to be zoom.

But I'm not sure. I will look out if its possible to move around.

There isn't such thing called htc magnifier. When I looked around threads, it found its the feature to select text in htc messenger. Mostly called HTC Text Selection.

There is MS Magnifier which is disabled when we use Notification Enhancement. I will also checkout how it works and how to bring it back.

Edit: Ok I have flashed official HD2 and moving around pages works when zoomed. Now its time to dig around whats wrong in my ROM. Please give me some time. :)

Thanks...

Hi CRACING!

Good rom, fast and till now stable :)

Samll request though... Can you make email app with more text?

Like when youre browsing emails and you see From and subject, can there be more text? So you could see more about mail without need to open it...

Or is there some setting to do this? I tried smallest letters but same thing...

Thanks!

Hi Chef Cracing.

It's been quite a while. I'm actively being around in Android Forums. I don't know why today I feel like checking out things here.

Wow! And Wow! The way you answer and manage your thread makes me touched. It's way better than some devs and forumers in android zone. Keep up the good manners mate. I salute you here. :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kanishkapd:
hello mr.cracing,

hi,

i have noted a couple of issues, (nothing serious though;))

1. the sim lock doesnt work properly? or does it..? i have set password for the sim..if i m correct when the phone is being switched on, you should not be able to proceed without entering the sim lock password, right? but in this case, if you tap the cancel button on the keyboard you can access the phone, call history, texts, mails...and everything. you have to enter the password if you try to make a call though...i m bit backward when it comes to these stuff..:) but is it the way its supposed to work?..

2. when i change from vibrate mode to normal, the phone is silent during an incoming call..if i want the sound to appear, have to soft reset....

3. and....eh...its nice if there was the option to clear all texts, without having to select all...:)

regards. waiting for the new rom releases.....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Murdhie:
The Wupload page doesn't seem to provide a link for the rom other than a premium link. Am I missing something?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
Hello,

1. Haven't tried this ever or I'm afraid my sim card will block for ever. lol

I have tried phone lock (Start -> Settings -> Lock) and it used to work fine. Even on startup.

SIM lock is depended to NSP but it should work. Have you ticked, require PIN when phone is used? In Phone Settings?

2. Strange, doesn't happen to me. How do you change the modes? Using volume buttons or inside the os itself?

3. Not possible, Only HTC can do such things. Either have to select all and delete or hold backspace button. :o

Its fine here. Click slow download below regular download. :)

Thanks...

Managed to get he ROM via your website. Twitter doesn't connect aand from a search I see that this is a common problem. Is there a fix?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
Nope. Not yet . :o

I will hide the tab on my next release.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Murdhie:
Cheers. Checked the XDA page again and this time was able to download from Wupload. Three times before I couldn't get it to work - odd. Downloading GTX Beta now. Is twitter something your working on or is it something that can't be fixed?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
Yep, the twitter server is changed and the script used on HTC twitter app is different. Or its something like that so its not working. We cannot hack to make it work either. HTC should have released a patch for us. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Murdhie:
Is there a different twitter client we can use or does this mean no twitter for this ROM?

Wait, that's stupid. If the twitter script is different then it doesn't matter what client we use does it. Shame.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
There are many 3rd party twitter clients but I haven't tried. Its just between the app and twitter server. WM is going down and supports for it as well. All are leave it and moving to android, wp7 and ios which is a sad news for us.

As the Twitter makes changes to there server, clients should get updated but its not going so on WM apps.

Twikini looks good. Try it or search in the forums and see which suits you better.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
1. You can find phone (not sim) lock in the root of Settings <- Startmenu. "Require PIN when phone is used" can be found in Startmenu -> Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> GSM/UMTS Services -> PIN/PIN2 -> Get Settings -> Tick "Require PIN when phone is used". It can also be found in Comm Manager -> Tap on phone -> Switch ON "Require PIN when phone is used".

Thanks...

Best Regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kanishkapd:
ok i found it..sometimes these menus are too much for me..:D

it is all enabled...the problem is still there. i ll try the phone lock instead. my worry with the phone lock is that if somebody tries a wrong pin 3 times, you have to go for a hard reset, right?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
If you type 3 wrong sim lock pins then you have to rush to NSP. Either to get it fixed or get a new sim card. :p

I'm not 100% sure that 3 wrong phone lock pins cause hard case but I suppose it won't. Just have a try or wait for me. ;)

I wasn't sure about twitter is working or not. It had troubles sometime ago but I don't use it to make sure its working or not. Sometime it did and sometime it didn't. Today to confirm I tested again and its working fine. Logins in, downloads tweets, updates tweets and etc.

No idea why Murdhie had troubles.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Murdhie:
Got your PM. I cant remember now exactly what the error message was but it was something about permission to access the server. Right now I'm using Sensation xl but first chance I get I'll flash your ROM and see what the score is. Which version of your ROM would you recommend to flash.

Wohoo!!! Fixed it. The key is that you need to update the connections database, reboot and THEN disable the proxy.

1) Goto Settings > Wireless Controls > Tap Data Connection (the label, not the switch)

2) Tap menu, then Update Database

3) Follow the instructions and then OK the reboot.

4) Once restarted, goto Settings > Menu, All Settings. Then Connections, Connections again, then Set up my proxy server.

5) Disable the proxy and you're all set.

WOHOO!!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CRACING:
Well I haven't done such. Twitter worked right away.

Or is this the solution for those who have trouble with twitter?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Murdhie:
This problem - if its the same problem - started 6months into the life of the HD2 apparently.

"Twitter changed their Authentication protocols from Basic Auth to Oauth ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oauth ) nobody seems to know who is at fault - Twitter for changing it or hTc for not updating their software to Oauth, there have been reports that the issue has been resolved but as of 3 minutes ago Peep on my HD2 is still not working, It's not a real biggy for me as I use MoTweets which is far better than Peep anyway They have 2 versions a free one with a couple of small ads in it or a paid version which is ad free"

This is info I've picked up from the net so don't quote me.

If you have a link to apps that work post them for me please. Thanks

hi

your english is not that bad. besides most of us are not from english speaking countries. but you have to change above "won't do" to "want to" as it might give the wrong impression that you dont want to download the rom.:):)

i too tried the links to help you out, but, seems you have a point. wupload link doesnt work and crdeveloper link is for the other rom (not the gtx) if i m not mistaken.

wait for mr.cracing to reply. he doesnt take much time to reply usually. or PM him. and make sure to try out this rom. its one of the best. :)

There was no issue with the inbuilt Peep Client, but it was not so good/intutive to use.

So from my another ROM thread (Photon for Topaz) I came across "Mo Tweets" Client. This is very cool Tweeter Client and is Free too, but Ad-supported. This App is very good to use and is updated as per Tweeter Server as well.

Also I came across another Application (Free) Efficasoft Mobile Express for Sending/Managing SMS from PC via Mobile Device. So thought to share that here . The main advantage is that I can easyly compose sms from PC while working and send those via Mobile Phone :).
