Hi shamanix. This cab is working well! :)

The Keys aren't Kaiser-Style, but really working well!

THIS IS A FULL WORKING STREAMING MEDIA CAB!

For the different version-number we have to wait for schaps answer.

Additional info:

Do you know how the codecs for HTC Streaming Media are saved? I do have a H264 (AVC-Codec cab for Coreplayer and TCPMP but i don't know how to make it work with HTC Streaming Media.

I also opened the not working RvBCrS_HTC_Streaming_Media.cab from Addons.zips and your Streaming Media cab with cab manager and in your cab are no dll-files (like EMZ_H264BP.dll which sounds like a codec for H264 mp4, or EmMp4SbrDec.dll which seems to be a mp4-decoder.)

See screenshots:

Strange isn't it? Seems like HTC Streaming Media should handle H264 AVC Codec, but it doesn't. (It opens H263 and MPEG4, but no H264).

In some full ROMs the video codec is shown in properties (H264) but no picture. In this Streaming Media Version the H264 codec isn't recognized in properties and no icture too. Every other codec working well.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Yes.. I know about that PAPPL

I didn`t include dlls in the CAB since I saw those codecs already present in the light ROM, they should be in the \Windows\ directory already..

I can easy include them in the CAB if you think that will help, I am not sure.. Why would you need them twice !? :confused:

The big question now is: does the Streaming Media handles those formats in the full ROM version or that is some kind of bug ?

Or they just must be included in the CAB once more... :confused:

Hi Scaps

I previously used your 3.57a ROM, before upgrading to version 4 RC. Just one question about the onscreen keyboard shown in the screen print on the first page... (querty layout, but with two characters per button)

Is this keyboard included in this ROM, or only in the final version? I'm asking since I am unable to find it anywhere...

Thanks again for another great ROM!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] :
Oh i didn't look ino the windows-dir on lite version. :o

I'll flash full Schaps ROM and test a H264 stream tomorrow.

There must be the H264 dll for some reason and not for fun. Isn't it strange HTC Streaming Media is the only app which can really handle rtsp-streams (TCPMP and Coreplayer and other tested apps do not support rtsp full, for I'm very glad to see a working cab now)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Isn`t that keyboard extracted from HTC Touch Dual ?

It is only few topics away from it ATM.. Look -> here <-

I am not sure now if that one codec is included in lite ( I think they ware all there when I looked ), I have deleted the dump of the lite ROM after I did some "cosmetic" editing and optimization.. I am not sure how much free storage is in the Schaps original, but mine edit got 64Mb free now, the comm manager from the screenshot ( I`ve used provmxl that Schaps provided and included it in the cold boot optimization settings, thanks schaps! :D ).. and some other things... :p

There are only 2 issues to fix in the light ROM: Low volume bug related with startup animation and a cosmetic one: dialer showing always "TMobileHR" insted "T-Mobile HR" in GSM area and "3G UMTS T-Mobile HR" in WCDMA area.

I didn`t install any apps yet...

Waiting for the final version with new version of advanced config..

This will be the best ROM for hermes!! Thank you Schaps for effort and time you put into it!

Thank you for your efforts.

I was just wondering if anyone had any issues with screen alignment since upgrading to this rom.

The reason I ask is that I installed the previous version and it needed to be recalibrated every 5 mins, which never happened on Black Satin.

Yes I have read the section on screen calibration. And I have removed and replaced the gasket around the screen and was working perfectly for many weeks on Black Satin without issue.

Fingers crossed.

Good effort - very much appreciated.

Start menu

Schap...

The Start Menu ( Recently Opened Progs List) gets long and cluttered right away. Is there a way to clean-up the Start Menu by not having it save the recently Opened files?

Thanks for your efforts.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] :
Installed Schaps Full ROM now, and the Streaming Media 2.20 inside opens the H264 codec stream but no picture. AAC-sound working and streaming well. The difference to the cab-install is, that in properties the video-codec is recognized by HTC Streaming Media as H264&AAC.

Strange, the codec is recognized but can't decode and display the picture. Only black screen. I 99% believe it should work, but some small bug doesn't let the video-codec activate.

Cab-install shows only "AAC" and no Videocodec-name if H264-stream. No picture with H264-stream with all versions.

MPEG4-stream working well with full too.

Hi schaps, i have a question about anounced future Advanced Config.

I use your tool very often and the tool is great, but if you could optimize a small cosmetic thing please.

If i try to input a Useragent-String over your User Interface the Keyboard always hides the Input-Window, see screenshots. If I change to landscape mode there is no chance to access the windows, so it's never possible to input text and see the text-window (and text written) at the same time. :o

Sometimes very :mad: if i type a long string and then i find a false written text.

Could be solved by adding scoll bars when keyboard opened or landscape, or the window on top of the screen (visible part).

After three days of usage I now found a (minor) bug, that I also had in some previous versions.

Activating Bluetooth via CommManager fails sometimes

To save battery-power I only activate BT, when using the Hermes in the car. So I have to activate/deactivate ist about 10times a day. In about 9 of 10 cases it works without problems.

But sometimes I select the BT-Button in the CommManger, the coulored circle appears for about 10 seconds, but after this BT is still not activated.

In this case You can try it 3 or 4 times an it still don't work. After closing and restarting the CommManager it works at the first try.

This problem appears only by activation BT not when deactivating BT.

This problem appears on two different Hermes

Battery Drain

ilogik,

I have started to notice that since using these 4.0 rom's my battery life has shorten as well. Normally during a days work I will go home at about 70%, but as of late its always aroun 40-50% and I am not doing anything different. I have no programs running but Active Sync.

Unless the battery itself is just dying then I can only think the rom is causing it? :confused: Anyone have any other sugguestions? I am thinking of flashing to the ATT unofficial rom to see if I get the same results.

Out side of this minor potential issue for me this ROM ROCKS!!! Thanks Schap's again for your hard work!

Car Charger Failing to charge until soft reset

Hi

I hope this is not been reported but there seems to be a bug when using a car charger... if you plug it in when the device is on, it does not charge the only way to resolve it is to plug it in and soft-reset the device.

This used to happen on the first Black Release but then i think there was a fix but cant remember or find it.

I am sure all the mobile operators are quite happy with that however! :) Now they can continue charging exorbitant rates for international calls, which costs next to nothing with Skype.

Through all my ROMs, I've had to realign the screen after changing screen rotation (i.e, sliding out the keyboard). Are you saying it is now happening regardless of that? This would indeed be HUGELY frustrating.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Starfury:
Regarding battery drain, try letting the battery get to 0% so that it switches the phone off, then when you switch it back on again it goes off again, then leave it charging untill fully charged (dont interupt it at all) and see how it is then. I have found after a radio flash I have had to in effect recalibrate the battery meter. Before doing the above it would drop down to 50% quickly then 30% and sit on 30% for hours evenwith media player running etc...

Facing 2 defects

Dear Schap, first many thanks for your excellent job; I'm a new member in this forum.

I faced two defects I don't know if you know about them or not,

1. If the mobile goes to sleep mode (no screen lightning); it does not return back to normal mode. I faced this two times only, and I had to reset my mobile.

2. The keyboard lightning is not working.

Please consider if you're going to fix.

Again, anyway thanks.

Has anyone had trouble with locked HW keys? Since upgrading to 4.0 RC I find that none of the HW-keys on the front of my phone work. The side buttons do but messaging, Internet, the phone-buttons etc. are all dead. Anyone have a clue as to what I've done to upset it?

Schaps here are my results with this RC version

I went from 3.6a to 4.0 RC, all ok apart from the low volume problem.

Then I restored an spb backup image which resulted in the flashing icons problem as previously experienced, settings crash and no Google Navigator (Current Rom driver is not support Direct 3D). Using Advance config I was able to get the ROM version number, it stated that I had v3.6a!

Then I did a hard reset, no more flashing icons and settings ok once again, but Google Navigator came up with Exception code: 0xc0000005, Exception address: 0x01491fdc, Reading: 0x00005234).

One more hard reset and a further backup image restore, minus the registry this time, resulted in everything almost ok. No flashing icons, settings fine and shows Rom v4 installed, but Google Nav still suffered from the same exception.

When the back up registry is installed again, guess what? Same old problems. Another thing I've noticed is that the startup screen shows "D:3.2", surely this can't be right?

Hope my information is of some use Schaps :)

Thank you schaps for such an excellent work.

I have installed the light version.

Regarding button 5: I have installed "Cyberon_VSD_1.2_061226.cab"+soft reset then button 5 works fine.

After soft reset the sound is low after pressing the power button to shutdown the screen and presing it again to trun it on it becomes normal?!

SPB backup

By adjusting the registry you can go back to high vol level, check previous threads for answer.

SPB does not restore the ROM fully, I had this problem before, try using sprite backup where can can backup the databases.

From my previous experience in pda's it is better when you upgrade to freshly reinstall the application, try this you'll get a top performance rather than the restore, restore is ok for the same version type in case of crash or so.
