Just to say, WPA and SDHC? This is such a leap in WM6.

Righto, off to get a 8GB SDHC lol.:D

Good luck guys on another fine upcomming release
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] casouzaj:
Hi Beast,

Support for SDHC cards is really, really great news! I've always though that specific hardware was needed...

Well, I just would like to know whether you and Leo are also addressing (or, alt least have plans to) the handsfree profile implementation issues with some specific BT headsets, which all the newer builds I have tried so far (namely 17745.0.3.0 and 17913.0.3.0) show.

Thanks a lot for your hard work! Eagerly waiting for your new release!

Best regards,

Carlos

Hi all,

I have very good news!

Beast and I managed to get incoming videocall anouncement! Still a lot to do on video call but we will release ROM the next week, hopefully with 100% videcall working!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] casouzaj:
I'm waiting like crazy for these two features. With "Updated Bluetooth Stack" would it mean I would be able to use my Lubix NC1 stereo headsets for phone calls (i.e. voice dialling, last number redialling, answering incoming call through the headset's button) just the way I presently do with Jwrightmcps' 2.02.02 ROM (OS 5.2.318, Build 15341.0.0.0)?

Because all the newer builds I have tried so far (17745.0.3.0 and 17913.0.3.0) had such a buggy HFP implementation, that such actions turned out to be unusable with it...

I'm counting the days... You both are simply GREAT, guys!

Thanks a lot!

Benchmark from New Rom

Hi All,

Just some stats from SK Benchmark for you.

Draw bitmaps;1358;Speed index

Integer;303.5492;Moves/25 usec

Floating point;8.380;MWIPS

RAM access;2222;Speed index

VideoCall is almost there now, we have incoming and outgoing without the prompts, camera interface is initialising and calls are connecting incredibly fast.

The only issues left now are Audio and Video transmission (LoL.........still plenty to do!)

Not sure if we will be able to get this into the build for release this week, we'll see how things go..........

We may have to release as is for now, whilst we continue working on VC for Revision 2.

Cheers,

Beast
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] sl9:
We love these progress updates beast & leo, thank you thank you thank you! This is truly amazing work you are doing :)

I can't wait for SDHC support, been wanting a nice fat 8GB card in my Uni for a very long time now :D

One quick question, about the WM6 Terminal Services Client (Remote Desktop) - does this work without bugs in your WM6 ROM? ie. does the Uni keyboard work in it? I ask because some people have reported keyboard not working with it, when installed from the cab that is doing the rounds (not neccessarily in your ROM though, I forget where I read this). Many thanks guys!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] mamaich:
Keyboard works perfectly. Only problems are national characters (cyrillic in my case), but this is a very old bug in mstsc that still cannot be fixed by MS. The same bug is present in citrix client too.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] casouzaj:
By your signature, it seems you are already using the new ROM by Beast/Laurentius, aren't you? Would it mean that they are about to release it for the rest of us?

Cheers!

Carlos
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] fallenczar:
he is the guy who is doing the SDHC And possibly the Vid drivers :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DaVince:
Bow down mortal! you are talking to a god. :)

He's the one that made majority of the tools that the ROM developers are using for their kitchens.

He's also the one fully responsible for making SDHC work on the Universal.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] casouzaj:
Ooh, sorry! Silly me! Of course Mamaich is one of the greatest gurus here. I have always known it. How could I have not noticed it? Stupid!!!

I bow down your knees, Great God Mamaich!!!

Cheers!

I have a 8Gb Kingston's SDHC card, any way of test this super ROM?

Thanks..

Yep, wait for the release, then flash it.

LoL

Hi all,

I am off on my hols on Saturday so won't be on the forum for a while.

Laurentius is going to release the new Rom, possibly over the weekend, if he has time, or else early next week. (No pressure Leo.....keep them all happy)

Have fun all, I look forward to your many posts (complaints/requests and bugs(not many of these I hope)) on my return.

ps.

About the Rom:

OS Version : 5.2.1607

Build Version: 18159.0.5.0

Enjoy your stay in one of Earth's paradises! :D You're a God! Thanks a ton for your commitment and will to make this future release available to all of us, poor mortals!

Cheers!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] alirezanaimi:
The only issues that I found on your previous rom(leo`s v7) , is problem on answer key to incoming calls.

And Lag of Some small apps on your previous rom that could be includd: Dialer skin,Htc smart dial,wm5torage,gprs counter.

Thx for your great work.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] shlomki:
the video call bug is no different than any other bug in our roms.

its a feature that's needed, and it bothers us, the users.

so no, we don't ask you to sacrifice your social and personal life,

but we do ask you nicely and with great appreciation to help us, because you (the developers) seem to be the only guys that CAN! nobody else can help us but you.

we don't ask you to work on it 24/7, we can't ask that of you because YOU ARE doing it out of free will and kindness.

buy we do ask you to please, give it some time to look at it, for the greater good. even if just to give us direction in what to do about it.

so, please?:)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] SteedMo:
Like i said, what can we do to encourage you to look in to it??

Because every people have different professionalism. And i admit you have that kind of potential in this particular issue.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Midget_1990:
At the moment i'm short of hte two main things i need to try fixing it, time and money... (no im not saying 'give me money' just stating why i cant work on this atm)

as i said before, because i don't get paid for this i will put bugs that affect me on top of my list as it were. with video call there is also the fact that i cannot afford to test it. I would be paying (a lot) of money to test fixes for a function that i will never use, i'm all for the good of the community etc and call me selfish if you like but can you see where i'm coming from?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DJ Palmis:
I think nobody could say that you are selfish!

"Thank you for your work": this sentence sounds better! :D

We can just say that if you need people to test videocall you can ask to italians!! Herein Italy there are a lot of flat rate (you know: 9 euro per month and you can videocall 1 hour a day and so on).

I don't know in other nations.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] shlomki:
not anywhere near selfish! we do cherish your work :)

i can see where you're coming from, i didnt think of that before.

but like Palmis said, maybe we could do the tests.

in Orange israel for example, video call costs exactly the same as a normal voice call, so its really kind of cheap.. i just don't have another usim to test it with, just 1.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] farehmani:
yaaaaaaaaa
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] kalimah:
i entered this forum because i own an universal and because i love gadgets and modifying them, however, i don´t know much about developing any kind of program.

the only thing i can do is read all these forums and test all roms and experiment in a low level like changing some registry parameters. so when i posted this thread and poll, my intention was to find out if many people around the world use video call and if there was any developer willing to fix this handicap on the wm6 beta versions.

what i find strange is that most beta testers would like to try video call in wm6 and none of the developers care about it...

is there any developer out there willing to help us?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] :
I agree with midget, sadly but why should someone spend all his money testing for something he'll never use? moreover, I think that there are far more important bugs to solve and improvements to plan than the videocall.. at least, I'd prefer a working free of bugs rom, instead of a buggered one with working videocall..

and after all we should be patient, as it's not 100% sure we'll never see an official rom for our brick, and when the first wm6 devices with videocall will be sold, then perhaps someone will figure out a way to transplant it on our universal... we'll see
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] teixeirabmb:
Other developers

Now we know video call isn´t a top priority to midget. What about other Universal's developers? No progress on the video call bug?

The preliminary results of this topic's pool indicate a majority of users wishing for video call!

I'm pretty sure about the illegality by selling the video call function, but I'm also sure the donations will increase drastically! ;)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Midget_1990:
they said that for a new build too. i got £10 lol.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DaVince:
I promise another £10 for you if you get the video call function working.

Anyone else wanna add up to that? :D
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Mr Groch:
I have donated you Midget £5 for coomputer repair, and I will

donate you £10 for working Video Call!

I'm sure that many other people can pay you for this...

PS. And I can also test Vide Calling, in Poland - Video call is the same price

as Voice Call, but I need other person for testing (this is not big problem,

we have big community in poland)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] markymanxxx:
Video call only charges the person making the call right?

A possible scenario for testing might be someone with a working video call (Uni on WM5, or another phone, preferably with a flat rate package) calling the developer who wants to test the feature (Midget or whomever decides that they want to take on the challenge).

I went to the link posted above and then got the details from there. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] fallenczar:
why i think that the device above is Uni (or an uni is being emulated...

processor... PXA 270 @ 520 Mhz

Radio Rom... 1.15.0

Memory being shown is exactly what we get in our about screens...

If this is an emulator image...i would like to ask someone with experience, does an emulator image show contacts in your list when you have dialled +25

????

Again i might be completely wrong as i have no experience with these things.

Anyone had any joy tracking this build number down?

Hi all,

Has anyone been able to track down this build number?

I am unable to find any trace of it on the net, but am getting desperate to have video call functionality back on the Uni.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DaVince:
Probably because you are also one of those people who does not have friends/contacts who can use video calling. But once you get to meet people who can use video calling.. you will not go back to regular voice calls.

Hey I was tracking it too.. That build number and version does not return anything on Google. If I could read chinese.. It would've made things easier. But if looks real enough though...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] fatouraee:
the dial screen and Today screen looks exactly like the one i have on my

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] fallenczar:
it is wm6 so it is a newer version
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Midget_1990:
Right, time to set the record straight.

That IS a HTC Universal, However it DOES NOT have working video call. Leies was working on Video call with some other members of DarkForce, but they couldnt do it and they gave up, the problem being the camera driver. If they can't do it my hope for it being done at all becomes 0. bad news sorry :(

about the build: it is a dogfood rom thats fairly instable and will not get to the public, due to some recent events 17913 may be the newest we have for quite some time...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] beast0898:
Information

Hi Midget,

Where do you manage to dig up your info m8 ?

I've been a member for a while now, haven't made many posts but have digested loads of info. I haven't done any Dev work on PDAs (mainly cause you guys are awesome), I've done a couple of homebrew roms for the Uni from the kitchens (won't release due to the inclusion of registered 3rd party apps I included (registered to me))

I've now got a bit more time on my hands and am starting to look at Developing for the Uni, and in particular this Video call issue as well as program memory (Don't know if others have my issue, but coming from the Himalaya and Alpine, program memory on the Uni sucks)

Anyway any advice/documentation you could throw my way to give me a leg up on this would be most appreciated. (Can't believe you r so young man!)

Cheers Beast
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Midget_1990:
Hi, My info is from research and other ways I cannot say :)

Video call seems to be a no-go, if DF can't do it we dont stand a one in a million chance :P

Memory is about as good as it gets with only 64mb ram, best keep your fingers crossed that we get 128mb RAM working soon :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] beast0898:
Shall ask no more about your sources.

The WM5 build I have on my Hima, I think was Buzz or Helmi build, retains data on power loss and they have managed to get 64Mb prog mem and 10 mb storage, there must be a way even if it comes down to some sort of swap file to boost available ram that would suffice.

Anyway I'll start digging and see what I can come up with.

Take care and thanks for all your great work!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Midget_1990:
thats because hima as 128mb ram :)
