I realy love the black series so far:)

One thing tho!:(

Since I've installed the first black versions I can't seem to connect to gprs/3G networks anymore. Am I the only one that's having problems? My ISP is T-Mobile NL and normally setting up gprs to t-mobile is a piece of cake. Realy that's the most easiest thing there is... But now I'm realy lost. And this is (like I said) eversince I've installed wm6 black (all versions so far). I was hoping I wouldn't have any trouble with this version but still the same damn thing.. No connection!

I've deleted the cingular settings ect etc... still nothing...

PLEASE HELP!! Let the black version be my favourite still......

thx in advance guys...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rblover69:
im still having isssus. One issue is mms not being able to be sent and getting stuck in limbo . It seems like it keeps on switching to H from 3G and somethings def wrong with one of the connections. Then out of no where the htc calender quick button from the main menu says htccalender cannot be opened . Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate etc. It lunches when i hit the calender on my screen but not on the button key which comes programed with this version of black. Same wierd issue happend with the new beta of opera. It said not enough storage avaible to process this command. When i reset the device it works but after awhille i ge tthat eror from the new opera beta. mean while i have 25.43 storage and 10.92 program memory. So wtf. Crazy things . Happening the cingular video workaround worked for a second then when i came into 3g it doesnt launch in real player at all. Im just confused.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ltaronger:
Try to "disable cingular proxy" in the new icon tools. It works for me, for Spain Yoigo ISP, with IExplorer but WM Live can connect through 3g.

But if before 3g connection, I connect using WIFI all programs connect ok.

Any fix for this other issue?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rblover69:
i seem to rectify my issues by taking off gprs auto attach from the htc tweaker . Now i can send mms and browse everything no prob. I even can view my CV now. Strange issue though my phone switches to H from 3g to transfer or browse the net. Even when sending a mms it swtiches to H from 3g. Really wierd.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
Try regular black that doesn't install cingular data settings?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
Uploading now :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] austinsnyc:
Is this the completely vanilla version with out the cingular apps and such?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
That is with cingular enable/disable proxy and cing data settings, I'm also going to post a plain vanilla with no settings or apps related to cingular. (still cooking)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] darkgemini:
can u put back the voice speed dial into the vanilla version?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] austinsnyc:
COOOL...!! cant wait for that one!!! not to be a pain do you think that will happen tonight?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Gavilaso:
Hi is there any fix for the sound setting, they keep going to default after a soft rest.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mviana:
???

Custel...if you are taking out the Cingular settings and Cingular apps, doesn't that make it JJ's original Pro 2.0???:confused:

What am I missing?

Marc
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] austinsnyc:
I would suggest reading the whole thread and also the thread that this rom is based from. which would be black 1.2 this has been a problem since day one and as of right now there is no fix for this except to install a 3rd party app like phone alarm and set up things through that
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] austinsnyc:
it would except for the fact that he is compressing the exe files to make as much storage as possible. If i'm right there will be around 60MB of storage
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mviana:
Thanks for the quick response. :D I just got that after re-reading the last few pages and looking at the pics that Custel posted.

Thanks again austinsync. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lpsi2000:
No way, keep that out of the vanilla ROM. There are cabs foating all over the forum for this software.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lpsi2000:
@CUSTEL,

It would be nice to get the cingular apps in cabs so I can install them on the SD card. What are the possibilities of getting these cabs?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
Cyberon Voice Dial 1.1 fix (redux)

It wasn't in the original version, either. As I said previously, cvdsetting.exe is missing after you install the cab and it can be easily fixed by pulling that file from another ROM and dropping it in \Windows.

For those who must be spoon fed, here's a zip. :rolleyes:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
didn't have the file to include it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
compressed vanilla version of original black 2.0

http://rapidshare.com/files/26740174/vanilla_black.rar
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
Do you know if it's missing in the original Black 2.0 ROM, too? As there's also a dead Voice Dial control panel applet prior to installing the cab, I'm assuming JJ's intent was to axe VD completely.

ROM is great, BTW... and I applaud you for taking on Cingular's crap. :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
yeah it is, I didn't modify any contents of original rom when I added cingy apps.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
OK, thanks. It really doesn't make logical sense for it to be cooked into either release when it's really an omission from the cab at this point. Maybe I'll look into correcting that.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lpsi2000:
What is the storage on this vanilla? Would u post a pic of the Vanilla Black ROM storage?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
almost same as the cing vanilla, 56.6xmb
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lpsi2000:
Nice, are you also using the toolchain or is this purely compression?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
toolchain and compression.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lpsi2000:
Any thought on the Cingy apps as cabs?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] _RMB_:
PLEASE HELP!!

i have the new 2.0.2 rom installed (thanks Custel) but everytime i set my custom ringtone to storage card and soft reset my phone it goes to the default ringtone (didnt have this prob with 2.0) i know this was prob already answered but where im at right now i cant search and look for it....if someone can help ill get it on my hermes email.......PLEASE HELP THIS IS FRUSTRATING!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vp3G:
Well, how about waiting until you are somewhere that you can search. Is a friggin' ringtone that important? :rolleyes:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wydeload:
I could only get mine to work if it was on the phone and not the storage card. Otherwise it would make the phone act weird and close programs and lockup or have the touchpad stop working.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
So what do you actually mean by 'NOW VANILLA EDITION' you rebased your ROM in the vanilla one that was released like 3 months ago?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ronfin44:
Can anyone pull the Cingy apps from the ROM and make a CAB? :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
still contains cingular customizations....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
still didnt answer my question.... did you rebase the ROM on the vanilla one that was released or did you just copy Black 2.0?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Scrog:
Going to 2.02 has been difficult to say the least. Tried clean install, but had issues with phone alarm, wouldn't install at all.

Finally got it up from back up files, but then active sync and usb connection wouldn't stay open (closed after a second)... hard rest and I'm going to try going 'back' to Vanilla 2.0 and see if that'll work better.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hlc1971:
Thankyou so much! I noticed the proxy directory but never looked in it!

Now I realy can say it's the best version so far lol
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mtimmy:
I HATE THIS when a senior fame people and contribute nothing!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mviana:
DUUUUUUDDDDDDEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't you know that this guy is one the reasons that you have WMBE Pro 2.0 in the first place. So again without him there would be no Cingular Black 2.0,2.01,.2.02.

Man I hope you were kidding...

CUSTEL,

Is their anyway to program "calendar" correctly usinf "soft key" shortcut. It works great, but not until I install Cyberon Voice Dialer.

thx
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] djaladin:
First of all, I'll say that I absolutely loved Black 2.0. Definitely my favorite WM 6.0 rom. Being an AT&Tingular user, Custel's modifications really turned the rom into one I like even a little bit more.

What does kind of bother me, walshieau, is that you have really given Custel a bit of a tough time in this and another thread or two. I realize that he merely added to your base ROM and re-released it for Cingular folks, but he did give credit where credit is due by calling it a modified BLACK 2.0 rom.

Now, I can see where you may view his customizing as ripping off your rom and your work, but using that line of thought means that every customized rom is a rip off from Microsoft and their work. We don't like it when they get pissy about us repackaging and customizing their roms, so I'm not sure if we should really get upset about others re-modifying roms as well. We feel like we're supporting the community and, in a way, Microsoft by promoting WM5/6 devices by hacking and customizing. I guess I'm just trying to say that Custel's work is not much different in my eyes, and that I just view it as him taking your excellently tricked out ROM and tricking it out a bit more for Cingular users. There are a lot of us here, even though some of us aren't too vocal on the boards.

I guess I'm just saying maybe you should give the guy a little break since he really is helping out. I don't think his customizing of your customizations is "stealing" or "copying" in a negative way... especially since he's not claiming it to be "his" rom, but just a Black 2.0 Rom with Cingular customizations and programs. I may be misunderstanding your comments a little, and they may have nothing negative against Custel at all, but I don't think any of us want Microsoft giving us sh!t for modifying their work, so maybe we shouldn't give each other so much sh!t either.

All of that being said, I appreciate all of those with more know how than myself... working hard to support the Hermes and Window Mobile community.

Splash Screen

So far love the new version and I love the fact that your took the time to build one for just us Cingy users. I have one small issue with it. The splash screen is something that I'm going to end up having issues with. If I have to do a reset at work I'm going to have to make sure no one can see my phone. It's a great pic and hey I love a great butt prob more than the avg guy but I personally don't think that kind of image has a place on a splash screen on a device like this. Before you call me a prude, I love my porn I just take it to work with. Since I'm the IT director of my company I spend a good time of my time policing our network and mail systems. It is kind of hard for me to then have a great rom that has this splash screen. Please think about this kind of thing before making that kind of selection.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] weinson:
I am in the same situation ... I am hoping someone packages up a simple, "work friendly" replacement screen (maybe with JJ's old "spawn" image we are used to for Black 2.0) for those of us who need it (see guide for the how to do it). If no one else does it I will try to get to it tomorrow when I am back with computer access at work --- though it would be great if someone has time today to get it posted.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Newb-Tech-Realtor:
I thought about the same thing...but I'm an entrepenuer so I don't need to worry about it too much. It is a nice image and I may end up soft resetting just to put me in a better mood:p

Jim
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] todd_jg:
Search "custom splash screen". There are threads and even a how to (thanks MrVanx). You can put any splash you would like.

Ah, nevermind - here is the link to MrVanx's Guide

I like this nice Black Vista theme..any one to share?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] silverfox0214:
You have the wrong hardware

It appears you only have a smartphone and a wizard. This forum is for the HTC Hermes.

That isn't to say you couldn't load some of the themes that are posted on the other forums. Just don't try to flash this rom on your K-Jam, unless you want a useless brick to throw in the ocean.

You can search the forums for "Vista theme".

Having just moved from a K-Jam to a TyTN, I would suggest selling the K-Jam on eBay and trading up to the TyTN. Best thing I ever did.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rblover69:
can anyone confirm PTT as a embeded feature. Im aware that VOIP is added and that PTT is voip but is it enabled so that PTT (cingular Version) is enabled in this rom.?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
The cingular settings auto install on startup.

No problem, feel free to post the image you would like to try :)

1. What traces of clearvue did you see?

2. I will take a look at xm radio.

SS of my radio :)

It's the same as with original black, there are files to fix these in the black v1.2 thread.

No it does not.

I will create a splash updater for those that would like to change it.

No, sorry PTT is not functional.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] etijburg:
Thanks

CUSTEL, please don't take any of my comments as anything other than construtive. I love the work all of you do. I just want to point out that some of us work in enviroments where we have to be much more careful than others. Then there are those of us that have responsibilities where having a splash screen like this would be a violation of company policy and would be a serious HR issue. I own my phone and not my company so I can load ROMs on them and not worry about pissing off anyone off.

Please don't stop doing the work you do.

Thanks for taking like you did. It shows that you are a good developer. I have developers that work for my and when you give them constructive direction them take it personally. I have found that some developers here have that trait as well. Most of us don't understand all the little things that you developers have to do get get this stuff working, but we do offer you the developers is other points of view and different ways to look at things that can help developers to make their work better.

Once again thanks for all your work and the offer to give us a splash screen update. U-DA-MAN!!!

Erik
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
OK RUU for the original spawn splash has been added to the first post :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] etijburg:

Thanks for posting a fix for that so quickly.

PIE Issue

I don't know if I cause this with making some changes to the Connections or is anyone else having problems surfing the net with PIE on this version.

I like to use the ISPDA@CINGULARGPRS.COM user so that I get the accelerated downloads. Exchange Push work great but I can't get PIE to surf.

Did I screw things up or is this an issue with this ROM. I did have a few issue with the orginal Black version with this as well with those ISP settings.

I'd like to get MEDiaNet and ISPDA both working on the phone at the same time but I guess something is just not turning the light bulb over my head on this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mmorisa:
Thanx.

Downloaded the update, do the flashing but didn't go through. Now stucked at Tri-Color screen..

Going to reflashed the entire thing again. Dunno what went wrong but something is not right somewhere.

Anyway, great job, good rom and I like it, TQ

Regards,

morisa
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
I'm having no problems with pie, the cingular settings that auto install are those straight from a cingular rom.

New update is being posted in a few minutes if you would like to wait for that one, fixed the xm issue and added mobitv. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] xultar:
I'm glad you made a cingy rom for cingy people who like all the cingy crap.

Personally I'd rather have the most room for my crap and not the Cingy crap. I love the original 2.0 clean and slim.

BTW where is the ladies beefcake version If there is gonna be a TnA version you gotta do a beefcake version for the XDA women. So, if you need pictures to RUU one up just let me know. I'll be sure to email them to you in a FLASH. Get it...FLASH....Buhwawawa...Pun indeed intended.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] etijburg:
Spb Software

Is anyone having issues with any SPB software on this version.

I'm wondering if that is what is causing my PIE issue.

I'd love to here back from other testers that use SPB software in regards to issue on this ROM.

Erik
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
haha, I just changed it back to spawn for the fixed release :)

I agree I don't use any of cingular's programs but others had requested it so I figured might as well :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] etijburg:
Downloading it now. Lets see if this fixs my PIE issues. I'll leave the default setting alone. I'll update after I flash. Thank you for not including PTT. I hate PPT. If I wanted a walkie talkie I'd buy one. It's the most annoying feature on cell phones today.

Erik
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
Just updated first post with working xm radio, and also mobitv.

Erik - Did you try disabling the proxy?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ltaronger:
Yes i have tried the Pro Black 2.0, but install some apps too and the same problem, but I wait for your new version 60Mb ...... ooooHHH incredible.

And I will test it inmediatly and tell you if 3g works fine.

Thanks custel for your great work!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boz:
Well it looks like your gonna get some now. :mad:

I think you owe 2 certain people an apology or you could be in for a hard time. :eek:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ltaronger:
Hi super!

I'm testing your last yesterday Black ROM version and it's genial only fails WLM in 3G/GPRS... "Checking Internet Connectivity", the rest of programs now connect via 3G fine, so perhaps is a bug in this WLM version.

Great work, I continue investigating, thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] johnburn:
It's not really weird, 3G is supposed to do that. You get "low" speed UMTS for voice and data transmission, the phone switches to HSDPA for high speed data reception. Think of it like ADSL, slow away from you and fast towards you. Higher speed takes more bandwidth, so it is shared amongst users in a statistical way, rather than have one person tie up the bandwidth so no one else can use it.

Clear as mud?

John
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] johnburn:
If you read the whole thread, you will see that it is based on Black 2.0. "Plain vanilla" is English "slang" for "nothing added". So what Custel has done is take out all of the extra stuff (some would call "bloatware") that is added to ROMs, so as to free up more space on your device.

A lot of people (myself included) prefer "vanilla" ROMs. Do you like the fact that Windows Media Player and Internet Explorer are so tightly built into Windows, when maybe you'd prefer to use Real Player (bad example) and Mozilla Firefox? Same concept. You can always add what you want later on through a CAB.

John
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jasjamming:
He was being sarcastic. walshie's point was that the essence of the BLACK ROM2.0 the way it is should not be modified (in terms of stripping it down to bare bones). On the other hand congular customizations are ok only to a point, and that it if its only going to be carrier settings then this ROM becomes redundant, but if its apps as well specific to cingular, then thats fine.

Its a thin line between building upon peoples work and taking it too far.

** ** **** ******* Moderated - Language and tone unacceptable

i simply asked a question about since he changed his 'subject' from black to vanilla without a simple post as to what was changed... hence i thought he changed his base back to the vanilla rom....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tco:
I think this might be more of a SD issue.

Don't put ring tones on the SD. There is a known issue with storge cards going to sleep and not recovering...this causes many frustrating issues...imagine the phone rings and the card can't be read....phone locks up...generally not a good idea...move them to the device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tco:
Um...actaully I don't think it's a "flame" or fame. I think walshie is trying to figure out what the base OS is? Vanilla ROM or Black 2.0 rom. There is a big Difference between the two....like one is Beta and the Other is market ready OS.

He may also want to know: why the "rebranding" since it's based on Black 2.0. What make it vanila?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tco:
What are you using for backup? Clean installs are the best, I would goto the PA people to see they can fix the problem.
