MMS

Where would one enter the MMS Settings on this rom??

When you go to messaging it has sms/mms as one category instead of mms and sms.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] stewcp:
Not sure if this is the 'correct way', but if you go into your SMS/MMS Inbox, Create new MMS message (Menu> NEW> New MMS), then under menu (bottom right soft-key) select Options> Message Options... you shoud be ok from here ;)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Dr Puttingham:
initial reaction ....

Must say, this is one of the best ROM's to date. BT seems to be working quite well , had one conversation drop down to the device but came right back up to my Jawbone without droping the connection. Speaking of BT, this is the first ROM that I can remember where my ThinkOutside BT keyboard didn't tell me I had to disable the onboard BT...

Also, MS Voice 1.60, with Jules' cab, is responding through my earpiece.

So far battery seems to keeping a charge, PIE seems stable and quick.

Hasn't locked up on me ... yet, LOL, but it's still early :)

This will be a great base ROM in my kitchen, thanks to all the chefs concerned.

Regards, Steven

Lost Simultaneous Voice and Data (3G only)

The Hermes/8525 is supposed to do simultaneous voice and data (3G only). Just upgraded to Majik and noticed that I loose my data connection whenever i get/make a call. What gives?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Sleuth255:
Those are generally handled by the Radio ROM. Are you getting a 3G signal?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Newb-Tech-Realtor:
That happened to me when I would connect via media net.

I switched to using ISP (I don't even enter the media net settings into my phone anymore) and it doesn't happen.

I called Tech Support and they said it was something about the proxy and such but it was a while since I talked to them.

Just flashed this to my AT&T 8525, like it so far. The only issue I'm noticing is that the keyboard mappings seem to be off for the symbol keys. I'm not sure if this is because the 8525 Hermes is different from the Hermes used to create the ROM or what. I've googled it and searched this forum, I can't seem to find a solution. Any ideas? Anyone else having the problem?

There was a disclaimer at install that said that this was designed for an earlier version and may not display properly? any thoughts?

So I made a big jump (I think) from Pro Black 2.5 (Cingular) to Majik, and I can already see better performance jumps.... Just one little question, does anyone know where I can find the PIM Backup tool that was on the Pro Black?

It was a life saver, i used to sync with mail2web, but ended up hating them, but my contacts were all on there. I have them backed up on another sim, but the PIM Backup also has some call logs and email addys i need.

Edit: Idiot me, the one place i didn't search (and i ran searches on here and 4winmo) had it. Viva XDA!

Is anyone else having a problem syncing with XP?

Removing the Time by the date on the Today Screen

One other thing: when setting up the MMS settings, the largest file size available is 300k... With all the other ROM upgrades I've done, its been 600k, thats also what it says on the website. Any way to change this?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boz:
It does not really matter because most carriers limit is 300k anyway, and if you send 600k to another phone that can receive only 300k it is not going to get through.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Newb-Tech-Realtor:
HTCustom for Pimp My Black V.2.

I use HTCustom and I have both time and date, but there are optioins for time only, date only, time and date, or battery.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ShortyMac:
Found it... I see where you can change the date and time on the task bar, but I don't see where you can change it on the today screen. A little nudge in the right direction would be appreciated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Toleraen:
I was actually wondering the same thing, because AT&Ts MMS setup instructions say to set it to 600k. I've never gotten an MMS to actually send so I thought that was the problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] porkpie:
I'm enjoying this ROM alot, although for the life of me, in the SMS screen, I can't seem to find a way to change the left-hand soft-key from Delete to New. I've had a search but haven't come with anything.

Any ideas? I noticed Shadow had this as well, so maybe it's just inherent in the ROM?

My phone is dropping calls like crazy since I switched to this ROM. I had no issues with the last ROM I had on my phone (which was not a JJ rom).

same experience here, I also feel a certain sluggishness. Myabe it's just imagination, but this ROM is definitely not faster than 3.5, and Sleuth's latest work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Clasimodo:
This happens to me as well if I do install the Video dialer. If I don't, the rom is real fast.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pietrucci:
Don't have any of the above problems. It's fast (but no faster than others, like Sleuth), no lags. And no dropped calls at all, stabile bluetooth.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Dr Puttingham:
2nd report ...

Well, after 3 or 4 daze I'm quite impressed with this ROM. BT seems to work better than anything else I've tried here. Occassionally the first outgoing call of the day will drop to the device but I can get it back to my Jawbone with no problem (and I've had that happen with lots of ROM's and my Jabra and Jawbone)

As for sluggishnes, seems OK to me.

I have the HTC Plugin turned off, MS Voice, BatteryStatus 1.04, TodayAgenda, my PaulyA dialer, MobiTV, XM Radio and HTC X-Button 1.5 installed with not much else.

Best of all is the battery life. Yesterday I used the device all day, then fully charged it and left it on standby with no power. This morning, about 11 or so hours later, I had 27 new emails from my Exchange 2003 server (sorry, no POP3 or IMAP4). Device responded to me bringing it out of standby and had a 90% charge reported by BateryStatus. Not trusting BS I soft reset and it's still at 90% which is the best I've ever seen.

Best of all I've had no Sleeps of Death with this ROM (and my attachments go to my SC)

Kudo's and respect to JJ and crew, bad ass ROM.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ScottC:

Few small niggles

I've been using this ROM for a few days now and have the following negative observations to make:

1. File Explorer is very sluggish, especially in the /windows directory. Real slooooow.

2. I have delays when selecting programs. This seems to be inconsistant and the delay varies.

3. The Wireless plugin on the today screen often looses the Wi-Fi status and displays only the BT status. When this happens the BT Status indicator moves to the left of the plugin bar.

I'm running:

WML build 1400

Macromedia Flash Player Active X (Flash Player 7)

TCPMP 0.81

HTC X-Button 1.51 ( Maybe the culprit)

EsmertecJAVA Manager

CVD

Adobe LE 2.00

I have also set up my A2DP for optimim performance ( Fantastic sound)

The TCPMP works straight out od the box with adjustments made to the equalizer and the video set to ATI Imageon.

Otherwise I have had one reset(SOD) and on the positive side find this ROM stable with my requirements.

Well done JJ.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Dr Puttingham:
That is probably due to the GLYPHCACHE limit value. Try increasing that to 32768 decimal perhaps.

HKLM\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE

The Black Performance cab will do that BUT it will also change the HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize to a static value so I'd simply use a reg editor and manually change the GLYPHCACHE value.

Did you originally flash with 100% battery?

I never turn BT off, pop gmail every 15 minutes, and have Fizz Traveler check weather every 6 hours. I went 24 hours with only a short call or two without charging - specifically to monitor battery loss - and it went from 100% to 70%.

I flashed my very first Hermes WM6 image when my battery wasn't at 100%. I had all kinds of weird battery issues. After several days of issues, I charged the phone while powered off to be sure it was 100%, then re-flashed. I always flash with 100% battery now. I've not had a battery problem since starting this.

They all have an up and down side. You probably should try them all in order to figure out what work well for you, your set of applications, and your device.

For example, if you turn everything to the max, then your device will be fast as hell, but you may not be able to run too many applications at the same time due to lack of program memory.
