Hi all. for those of you who are testing 4.1 can you please tell me does your device crash if you have tray launcher running. When i had B&B 4.0 installed before with tray launcher on, if i did a soft reset it would not load up and would freeze on the start up screen, then had no choice but to do a hard reset. I then reverted back to the o2 Rom.

After reading someones post they advised that it was tray launcher as they had same problem but not anymore. so i re-installed yesterday and it seems it no longer crashes because ive got tray launcher de-activated. So obviously a bug in 4.0. is this issue still there?

any release date as yet for 4.1

thanx in advance
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Underwaterdub:
Another little Bug (but also an improvement since 4.0) is the change of the standard input method. I have installed a german Keyboard and PocketCM Keyboard. When i change the sim via sipchange or defaultim and chose the Pocketcm keyboard it has the german keyboard as default. But it's better than in 4.0 where i couldn't change my SIM at all.

Testing Tom's 4.1
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] gilbreen:
Been using 4.1 for a few days without issue on my P3300 using T-Mobile USA. The changes I like are:

- Better working camera (v 4.03 instead of 4.11)

- Battery icon removed from title bar

- Buttonless activation of TouchFlo

I have installed or made the following changes and my P3300 is running great:

- PocketInformant

- PocketBreeze

- Replaced HTC Home plugin with 3-tab Touch plugin by N2A to add my own cities of choice - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=319187&highlight=na2+weather

- PhoneWeaver

- TomTom

No issues found so far. Great ROM!
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Yoobe:
I have read all testers post and I don't know what mean tester here. As far as I understand, its people who install it and use it for few days like they use to do everyday there phone and check if something occure.

In my job (I am a developper of software) testing means something realy different :

Making a test plan : having a list of things to test..

In the test plan, everything should be tested even what people can do only once a year in normal use. Without a plan and taking time to test all, it is having the release before other people and feeling to be VIP.

I dont accuse people for not testing but I don't see any post in this way.

If here it's a community and want to work together for better products for everybody, I think a REAL tester team can be made and making a WIKI or other platforme to follow some test plan and see if everything have been tested.

Be sure I just want to help a bit the thing with this post with my professional experience and not free critic against someone special.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] macguffin:
Tom now convinced my wakeup problems are due to using 'deviceLock' in batteryStatus and not anything sinister lurking in your ROM.

Skimmed some of the 200 odd pages of the creators thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=270751&highlight=devicelockskipcheck

and found some similar reports of the same sort of behaviour.

There is a newer beta you might want to add to the final ROM (first page of the above link.)

I'm testing some batteryStaus specific registry tweaks that if successful can be shared in case anyone else suffers from this.

Other than this I've been hammering it and have found it to be extremely stable and with CPU scaling switched on (min 117 - max 260) the cube is a delight to use.

Congrats Tom so far so good.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Gajet:
An interesting point, but there is a difference between a professional Beta test and what is happening here.

Microsoft is one of the biggest software companies in the world, yet I have BETA tested many of their products for them, including the joys of early windows Vista versions, I don't follow a precise plan and they don't expect me to, that was done already, what is needed is whether a user utilising software in their own way, and mixed with a multitude of other applications can throw up bugs that would not be spotted by strict testing of the product alone.

HTC Touch Phone Pad

Is the HTC Touch Phone Pad integrated in this version? I feel like this is a must, since it never works properly when you install the cab, specially with the language change.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] uniqueboy:
Just a little feedback since i've got the beta on, I can't seem to make it go wrong. The only problem so far is syncing my email over wifi, but I am sure that is an issue with me and not 4.1. As others have said it is quick, especially the cube is noticeably very fast, but still only good for showing my mates how much cooler my phone is than their nokias.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] TricE:
Question to the testers:

Is there now a possibilty in 4.1 to minimize applications?!maybe like in spb plus, if you slide with your finger the "X" down, the app minimize.

Hope you know what I mean.

Thanks

Is yahoo go working properly? in 3.7 it didin't work.

Thanks.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] MBOPhone:
This 4.1 Beta Rom of Tom is just awesome.

It fixes all the bugs I had.

I now have the following apps running :

Mapking 2007

Plecodic

CE Star 2.8

And have been able to change regional settings from English to Chinese to French without problems while on v4.0 I would always get stuck at the 2nd splash screen with no other ressort than hard reseting and reinstalling everything...

Regarding touchflo, I couldnt get it to work in 4.0 (nothing would happend when loaded) while in 4.1 just pressing top to bottom activates it and then I can move the cube from left to right.

Ignore the following part:Its great although I havent been able to use the touchflo for other things than the cube.

IE a friend has the real HTC Touch and when hes in the contacts just one finger move will scroll all the contacts with a nice sound and speed based on his finger move. I can't do that on my artemis with tom's rom or at least didnt find out how to do it if possible. I've got it working now, it just requires to scroll in the left of the screen rather than the center.

Finally 4.1 fixes the prb I had with closing softwares. The cross in 4.0 would sometimes not work or require to be pressed very long or with stylus. With 4.1 its totally normal.

I have yet to find a bug with 4.1 but will keep you updated if I find one.

Actually one slight bug which is not really one. If I put the regional setting in chinese, then the email, internet explorer, tasks, etc in the cube have descriptions replaced by ???????. Not a big deal as I put my regional settings in french but just FYI.

Thanks A LOT to Tom for fixing the issues many of us had with 4.0. This rom is definatly the best one I've tested so far.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Underwaterdub:
You can't scroll with your finger? That's strange....

Normally you just have to move your finger up or down to get things scrolling..

The "adjust Backlight" button doesn't work on my device either.

Where to download beta v4.1

Dear Tom,

It is great to see how do you manage to create a whole new operating system for our Aremtis'es. I have been uploading your rom's en following the forums like a ghost (because i never took the time to give my feedback) since the 3,7? Great work!! Brilliant actually. I really appreciate, and i think am not the only, your work.

Thanks!!

Tom, i see in the first page of this forum that the download file was deleted? but also i see that many people has been able to still install it for testing and they have had great results with it?

Where do i find your beta rom?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Tom,

Yesterday i was using TomTom 2 times 1,5 hour because off a visit to my family.

When i stopped using TomTom i noticed that the mouse mode was enabled. But by itself. I just disabled it

On the way back to home it just was on again.:confused:

I didn't touched the mouse enable buttom.

I think it is a WM6 error and not in your rom.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] MaskedMarauder:
I don't have Tom's ROM on my device, and the mouse pointer turns it's self on too, so NOT Tom's fault.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] petervbeck:
i had this "problem" also sometimes, but for me it was mostly when i installed a new ROM, and it happend only one time then i never had the mouse mode automatically switched on again...
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] pg2005:
yep here too, got the same results on O2 GER ROM WM6. On B&B 4.0 it is not popping up so many times. maybe once in two weeks.

SO it means, it is a real Microsoft Windows Mobile Bug :D :D :D

happens in WM5 and WM6

With TomTom I have got the Problem on B&B 4.0 now, that my sound is turned off. So I have to press the red Hard Button and set the Volume down and upo again, than it works...

Also with Camera and Tom Tom: If I want to start the aplication Camera or TomTom, the I have to check, that no other application, like Resco Photo Viever or Pocket CM is not startet. Otherwise, Tom Tom or Camera shows, that there is not enough space to start the application.

@ Tom Codon, I hope my Experience will help you to solve some little Problems. Unfortunatly I cant give you my test results for 4.1.

Best regards from Germany
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] MBOPhone:
I've got it working now, I found out its best to do it on the left side of the screen because if I do it on the middle either nothing happends or it pops the cube instead of scrolling.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Moleshome:
Tom, thanks for this. Everything installed with no traumas.

I've not had much time with it yet but I do have a couple of comments on the dialler.

1. With the grey dialler the headset symbol in black is very hard to see, white would show up better.

2. When using the smart dialling two scroll bars appear, the lower scrollbar scrolls through the filtered list but only the bottom arrow is ever highlighted, even after scrolling to the bottom of the list the up arrow is still not highlighted.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Al66:
I've had this issue when the phone is on charge, I think it is related to the non working HTC home backlight button as I've only seen it when I've tried to get that working. When I've had the issue while the phone is plugged in I can unplug the power and adjust the backlight settings (only the "on mains" setting was down to minimum)

Last time when i was waiting for one of Tom's amazing ROM that was a Sunday as now. I went to bed and after when i woke up on Monday morning and i checked the xda-dev i saw that the new rom was released somewhen during the night. :)

Today it's also a Sunday, and i'm waiting one of Tom's new ROM like before. I'm just wondering that when tomorrow i will wake up, i will see that the ROM was released at night...:)

Touchflo

Hi Tom,

I am not testing you new rom, but from reading this thread I was wondering:

1.- To activate the cube is from the top to the bottom. Would not be better on the other way? from the bottom to the top??

2.- Also I saw that you have changed the HTC home. The one in 3.7 and 4 were great and I think people would be happy to keep them.

3.- The most known bug was the camera so congratulations for fix it!

Anybody tested tomtom? wifi? bluetooth?

What about battery life?

What about vibration mode?

Looking forward to the release of your new rom ;-)
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Doume:
Question to Tom :

As new release of Pocket CM 0.10 and Keyboard 0,6 is now done, any chance to have them included in new 4.1 release as it seems we are many to use these two great apps.

Manay thanks.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] zsitvayb:
There were somewhere written in this thread that PocketCm 0.10 has been already included to the new ROM. I think the keyboard much better if optional because the v0.6 was very unstable for me. It causes a big battery drain. It's eaten more than 30% battery power during the night.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Doume:
Have Pocket keyboard 0,6 and no battery drain......

Aggre with you, could be optional depending if many people have same drain issues.

Maybe people "testing" rom 4.1 could provide those which are not more idea of what is exactly provided in the new rom. I mean we are all asking questions about what is included and how it works, one post with focus on all softs and version included up to now would be usefull.

That is just an idea...

Same problem here. I push the button, and nothing happens. However after trying I get the blank screen on next wake up of the device. buttons light up, but no screen. Only soft reset to get the screen back to work.

This is the only bug I found so far. Great rom, very stable. I love it.:D

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] neavokh:
"from the bottom to the top" is used to close the cube.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] neavokh:
My idea is as newer version of Pocket CM and keyboard are released very quickly, as I remember, four releases of Pocket CM (.07 to .10) came out in the past one month, better to keep them out of the ROM and allow users to install the new release by themselves.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Gustopher:
Testing Update

Several days in now and still rock solid.

I spotted something in the BB4.0 thread about changing cube settings and then being unable to get past the second splash screen. This coincided with my experiences. I was able to recreate it in 4.0, but I haven't retested in 4.1 - it only seems to happen if you change the cube settings AFTER having installed a bunch of other apps and generally configured the device. If you do it early on, shortly after install for example, you don't seem to get the problem...or at least I didn't!

Other than that, Transcriber seems to work in some applications but not others. For example, SMS has been OK, Pocket Word throws a wobbily - still exploring that one.

Make no mistake though 4.0 was good, 4.1 is exceptional!
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] DonAkino:
Can't we just post it already please?

Hi Tom,

I know that I need to be patient and all, but if I'm not mistaken it has been more than a week now that there have been users testing the 4.1 rom.

And as far as I can tell there aren't any big bugs in it (anymore?).

I see a couple of suggestion on what software could be put in the rom but the solutions provided by Thormdac is in my opinion the best one. If the user needs a certain application he/she can find it there.

IMO if all functionalities ( example: camera, phone, gps, wifi, bluetooth, internet connections, office apps, touchflo, cube and cubesettings, HTC Home buttons, the programs cooked in the rom, etc... ) of the Artemis device with your new rom have been checked and rechecked by x number of users, than it should mean that the rom is working without bugs! Or am I mistaken?

So could you please try to give us a timing for the release? Sorry for my impatience, but when I read al the enthousiasm of all the testers here I really really want to see and feel for my self how good 4.1 is.

Nevertheless I really appreciate your hard work. Thank you for all your great rom's till date !

touch flow and contacts

to testers :

with the tom's rom 4.0, when I select a contact in the touch flow cube, it doesn't call him but it opens the contact (name, last call...) instead of the htc home.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] MaskedMarauder:
No I spotted that, but as I gave some flack over the bugs in the last version and the way the release seemed rushed so this time I am saying nothing. No doubt Tom will release it when it is ready, but it looks like it is being properly beta tested this time.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Johny1fin:
Hi,

Same as 4.0.

When selecting a contact in cube it does open the contact details and does not ring directly. Maybe thats how cube has always worked on all devices, I don't know. If thats the case perhaps it should stay like that for consistancy.

If it was known how to change it via reg entry then individulas can do what they want after rom installation as with other preferences/customisation.

I would prefer that applications are installed in roms as per the developers (initial not Tom etc) meant it to be and hopefully tghose taht want to change the default can.

When selecting favorite prople from HTC home it does however ring directly, so you have the option depending upon how you want it. Some may like it either way.

There needs to be at least one quick way of getting to contact details without having to edit via contacts. I am often editing contact details.

I guess this is one of those instances when different people will want different solutions.
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] neavokh:
Agree. If set to direct dial, then it will be too often to dial out by mistake. At least for me, when I am going to roll the cube and my finger does not work perfectly, it will open the contact information.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Johny1fin:
I understand your need for direct dial but I and as far as I know this has not been done yet. If anyone knows the setting can you reply please.

From my own point of view, I have had to tell too many of my friends that 'it just went of in my pocket, honest' before and I try to minimise that.

I only want to call when I want to and not by accident.

bug found

Hi Guys

For all of those who are testing, read whats written and advise if you have also tested this and got the same bug as i have with 4.1. This message was sent to Tom, but thought i should put it on here too, just to see if you also experience the same thing.

"...just installed your ROM... was working great... then i decided to test the bug that was present in version 4.0... 'Tray Launcher'.... in V4.0 if you activated tray launcher and after a soft reset sometimes it would stay on start up screen and u had to do hard reset... I just tested it on 4.1 and the same thing has happened. in tray launcher i enabled file explorer and some othe rapplications. did soft reset, did not come back on had to do hard reset... Tjis is something your going to need to look at, or even remove tray launcher.

second thing i noticed was PocketCM does not work from the today screen. so for example if i press contacts from home screen, it goes into the normal contacts and not the pocket cm one..."

If those who are testing it please advise...and those who have not tested this yet then please test...thanks
