Shamanix, please note that nobody had confirmed whether Internet Sharing IS present in Schap's light version or not... I've posted the question and others have too, but I still cannot say if it's there or not, short of installing his light... Maybe someone has installed it and can say what the situation is????

Oh well... Too bad.. I'll buy you a beer if you ever come to Warsaw! :)

Best,

Laz
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
I have flashed Schaps lite version and internet sharing is not present in the lite ROM, along with that PreConfig is working there, but something is wrong with today items settings since nothing is on today screen out of the box, it is blank empty.. :rolleyes:

We have a deal then.. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LazPL:
But... Assuming that you can enable stuff in Today as you please, and that THAT works, that would really not be a huge problem?

I mean people will probably configure their today screens anyway, right...

As far as I am concerned, no items in the today BY DEFAULT is no issue.

A deal is a deal! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kwill:
just adding my two cents, but I really haven't ever used internet sharing, the icon is more there for show : ) but, one quest.....to use it just connect ur phone to pc and select connect,right? with usb and media net as the default settings to connect through?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kwill:
yeah, i usually change the today screen anyways. so, you're right.....that wouldn't really be a big deal.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
You are right, it is not a real issue for the end user, but considering the registry and provmxls are set up to display items on today screen it is an "issue" not having them displayed out of the box.. It is just an example how strange things happens when you mess around ( edit ) the ROM.. :)

I personally don`t use internet sharing too since I don`t have laptop at all ( and it gives me problems now trying to have it in the new ROM :D ), but I think it is a great feature and you never know when it could be useful.. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kwill:
ok, well that does make the today screen issue a concerns. i guess i really didnt think about the problems that could arise from certain portions of the registry not having the necessary information for the device to load correctly and such. lastly, i do believe the internet sharing to be a useful because i do have a laptop and there are times i don't have an internet connection and wish i did (long ride in the car and i'm not driving). so, i should be sensitive to people's needs and understand that it could be a really big deal for some people. quest? can people even get the app to launch and if so where does the real concern arise if it does launch ? i.e. while connecting, etc. i can get the app up, which i couldn't do that with some of IS cabs i used previously
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Yes, internet sharing cab runs now, but when you try to connect it says "cannot connect for an unknown reason"

I haven`t managed to figure out what is missing in the cab so I want to have internet sharing in the new ROM..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kwill:
ok, that's the behavior I'm getting when trying the app now. well, just wanted to check. thanks for ALL your fast replies. you really do a great job. thanks!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] thanosc:
When you say it's not a superstorage rom what you mean?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jaytessie:
Thank you

Thank you for your ROM.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jromep07:
nice rom!! just instal the DU and install missing programs hehehe!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Yes.. don`t use advanced config to change Comm Manager... It doesn`t work!

If you want some other Comm Manager just install it via CAB..

CAB Addons will be posted in 2nd post, but I am looking to update them to newest versions before uploading them..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] simon1219:
MegaUpload or Sendspace mirrors pls
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zim2dive:
I fear this will fall into the newbie/idiot/too-lazy-to-search category :) but...

so I upgraded from Black Satin to Grass... fastest of the (3?) ROM upgrades I've done by far.

One oddity.. during the boot process (from soft reset), the first splash screen I see still shows a reference to the Black ROM.. am I missing something...

That aside, the ROM upgrade finished and I am re-installing apps. Looking forward to my 1st upgrade in several months! Many thanks for the ROM!

EDIT: I found this patch http://rs54.rapidshare.com/files/21914209/Mi_MediaSupportv2.cab in the Prophet forums. Some seems to indicate it might screw with the camera app, but that's not an issue for me, I have an 8500 anyway. Midi ringtones work with this cab.

Thanks,

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jaso2005:
No thats fine, it just doesnt force a splash screen on you. You can get them from the Schaps page if you want them :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sbetts000:
Hi Shamanix, lovin your work !!

The 6mb pagepool really flies compared to schaps 4.0 RC I was using.

One thing, it says on first post that mobile office is installed, but its not there. Can you include the cab so I can use, then ROM is perfect!

I have spent last 30 mins searching but cannot find single active link to the office 2007 cab anywhere
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
There is office mobile included in the rom..

-> Start -> then 2nd link from the above ( 1st is today, 2nd is office mobile ), tap on that and you will get office folder with office inside.. :confused:

BTW.. There will be v1.1 update as soon as Schaps release fixed Advanced Config ( fixed error with comm manager reported above )
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lagoskon:
The new Config 1.1 works fine with your previous ROM (3.54) with the 10-button comm manager.I like the new timer-disconnect GPRS feature.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sbetts000:
Thanks, cannot believe I missed that !?!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LazPL:
Eh... Is this my most stupid question ever... But did you base it on Schaps FULL or LIGHT version? I assume all apps are the same as ... er .... one of them?:confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
It is based on his Lite ROM, as you can see from the 1st post.. ;)

BTW.. how much free storage is in Schaps ROM ? I didn`t flash it at all before editing and I am curios :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LazPL:
Dooohh!!! Well there you go. Tired. As fro free storage - I have to admit I haven't flashed his yet, thinking that grass may be nicer to look at than deep purple.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] diezoo:
Quick Comparison...

Shamanix, in your opinion: :)

There is really same notable difference or feature between this build and 3.54?

There is really better this new one?

​

So far I have not been able to find better rom than 3.54, I will test this one the next weekend because I'm very busy right now, but, I want I know what expect from this build.

Thank you very much!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
To tell you the truth, I didn`t have that much time yet to test everything that I use so far, but I can tell that this seems like a better ROM the 3.54.

It is the newest build available and it has newest application builds, so it could be better..

There are some new features too.. I would choose this instead of 3.54 if you ask me, but I am waiting for Schaps to upload fixed Advanced Config..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tubededentifrice:
Hello Shaman !

Thanks for your great work !

I've a problem with the comm manager, It started to work (was able to try it at the first boot) but I can't launch it anymore now (I get the strange error "Comm Manager supports 4 functions at least!" when I try to start it).

Could you help ???

Thanks !
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sesaru:
Can you do (or anybody) one customised with Japanese I/O for Softbank?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Yes, please wait for the Grass v1.1 that will include fixed Advanced Confing from Schaps that deals with this issue!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tubededentifrice:
Thanks, I didn't cope I was saying about the same issue as the others on the Schap's thread.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] xdaradar:
This ROM is great and fast. It doesn't have the purple look and the removed&added components are just the ones i missed at schaps's version. off course nothing bad about schaps's rom. It the base for this one with a lot of work in it.

There's enough storage for me to install everything on the device where i used to install most app's on the storagecard.

i added htc home and audiomgr and kaiser commmgr after i used advanced config and so no issue ;-)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tubededentifrice:
As I'm asking questions, a little new one : how to get the battery icon back in the title bar ? I can't find anything doing this in the advanced config app :/

Thanks !
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] xdaradar:
it should be there. i haven't changed it and the icon is there on my tytn. did you set in the clock-settings the option to always show the time? maybe that overrides the battery?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jatt_inder:
can someone explain me the difference between 4MB PagePool and 6MB PagePool???/ please

Cannot Download

Hey Shamanix,

I am really excited about downloading your rom. It seems like it is going to run very fast with the amount of free ram it has! I attempted to download it but it says that you are uploading....

Whenever you are done uploading, could you help us understand the difference between the two roms your uploading? I do not understand the 6 mb vs 4 mb.... any help would be appreciated! Thanks for your work!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Here you can find more information what Page Pool is..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=295932

I personally use 4Mb PagePool because I run a lot of applications at once ( MSN Live, Pocket IE, Skype, Media Player,.. ) and I need as much free RAM as possible.

Up til now I had only used the Black series of ROMs (but was searching for something new since that series is at an end)...

So I thought it was just a function of WM6 (didn't work with WM5).. but Grass won't play midi files for me as ringtones.. the Black ROMs worked out of the box.. any ideas how I can make this work?

Thanks,

love the extra space and pagepool

Hello ShamanX,

I know you're already getting cabs around but waiting a while having the last version before uploading them.

Could you upload your lastest versions so far so that we could improve our phone? Some apps are really missing in some case (I'm thinking to Streaming Player and Remote Desktop) and you would greatly help.

Thanks again for your great work!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] convert:
Perfect for me ....

Great job Shamanix

I particularly liked FuN_KeY's v1.5.2 and Schaps 4.00 Final (4mb pagepool) - these would have been perfect for me but I experienced some issues with audio player and mortplayer crashing on me when i had other applications open (or sometimes just when they felt like it) and i had some memory issues (ie out of...) with media player.

I have had none of these issues with Grass v1.0 or v1.1 (6mb pagepool).

Thanks very much
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
I will upload the addons soon and keep it updated as I get some newer builds..

I have created Internet Sharing and 2 streaming media cabs ( one without codecs and one with codecs ) that needs to be tested since I didn`t have time to do it yet..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] diezoo:
Excelent ROM...

Finaly, I flashed last nigth, is a very good ROM, Schaps did the work dramatically and Shamanix upgraded with a great criteria. :)

Some small bugs were already known (here).

Thank you so much to both of them for this great effort! !!

Welp, after the slow issues with Schaps 4.00 I decided to give this rom a try (6MB version) and voila, no slowlyness, no problems...xcept one tiny, minor really. The Comm manager only has first four (Flight, Phone, WLAN, Bluetooth) of six seen on the post by Shamanix. I wonder where is my Beam and my 3G buttons.

Fortunately, that's just a beauty clitch since I don't use beam nor I have need to switch off/on 3G connection
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
This issue is related with Advanced Config.. The thing is : If you don`t run the advanced config, it will be 6 button like in the screenshots, but after you run the advanced config it deleted 2 bottom buttons..

It is not a big deal since you can get those buttons back in Advanced Config. Comm Manager options..

@diezoo, you really helped with your reports... ;)

I have managed to fix the slow IE scrolling issue.. Now I am going to look into Outlook Mail issues to see if I can fix them..

You can expect v1.2 soon with those issues ( hopefully ) fixed.. ;)

Can you please clarify those issues ?

What photo is out of the screen ? header picture in HTML mail ? :confused:

I have tested this now and it seems fine in v1.2alpha that I have here, didn`t mess with outlook at all, just wanted to reproduce the bug so I can fix it..

The pictures in HTML shows good both in portrait and landscape..

Can you send me that mail that doesn`t show the picture correctly or provide the screenshot or something ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] diezoo:
In the first picture, the photo of the contact person is in the right out the screen, then I switch Landscape and portrait and the picture goes to the correct place like the picture two.

Hope this clarify the bug.

The Internet Sharing is not working, I do exactly the same as ROM 3.54 to connect and have this error message:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Oh.. you mean contact photo.. I understand now..

You can delete the attached images now if you want to.. ;)

Hmm.. This will be a hard one, but I can give it a try.. Since I don`t have pictures for my contacts, if you would beta test for me to see if it will be fixed, it will help me a lot..

If you are up for it, I will send you a download link on PM..

About the internet sharing.. It says it can`t connect for the unknown reason.. interesting.. lol

I will see what I can do about internet sharing...

Actually it's not for me. The problem is not about the city (which is present in my XML file, (Paris, France)) but about the fact I can't select anything (i've the textbox and the big textarea but can't enter text and the big textarea is empty.

I though to a corrupted XML file, replaced mine with the one given by xdaradar but it didn't solved the problem. And yes, I've desactivated the HTC Home plugin while replacing the XML file ;)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
I didn`t use Schaps 4.00 ROM so I would not know about WiFi, but battery in title bar issue is present in Schaps ROM too, I guess WiFi issues too..

Great thanks alot!

Any chance of including internet sharing in the next update?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
You bought 8525 with my 3.54 ROM installed !? :eek:

3.54 ROM does not have those issues, those issues are only on "4.00".. So if you don`t mind those issues and if you are willing to test 4.00 and report new issues you find, then go for 4.00 ;)

Try the attached cab and let me know if it works..

If it doesn`t work, then I am missing just one file... Ipnat.dll ( or something like that )

If someone can provide me with the newest version of IntShrUL.dll and IntShrUL.exe ( and maybe ipnat.dll ) files, it will help a lot to get the newest version of internet sharing..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] arnarn911:
i apologize for the confusion. I actually bought it from a friend. :D i think i'd play around with 3.54 a bit as i would like to have trouble free surfing via wifi in the meantime. Great work Shamanix!

Safe to say I liked ur 4.00 the best. Good job!

Sadly, my AT&T Tilt came today (HTC Kaiser) and as such I'm moving on.

but b4 I go..I have one last question and request.

Will Advanced Configuration Tool Version 1.1 work on the Kaiser? I remember hearing that it works on multiple devices.

If it does work, Is there anyway I can get it in a cab? It would make using my Tilt so much more easier.

Thanks for everything and I hope to see u in the Kaiser forums soon!

Can someone give details on the Wifi problem. As for me I am able to surf the net using wifi.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rob.ocelot:
One problem I've noticed with Wifi is that once you turn it off, you can't turn it back on again without a soft reset. Wifi always seems to be turned on after a soft reset as well, no matter if it was on or off before SR.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] simon1219:
I have no problem turn on and off the wifi and still able to connect without soft-reset. By the way I'm still using version 1.1
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rob.ocelot:
Interesting. It seems that using a data connection messes with the Wifi. Even if I've shut off the data connection and soft reset Wifi will not switch back on once switched off. Weird.

I wonder if this is a problem with my hardware or if this is something originating in Schap's 4.00?

Edit: Confirmed - This doesn't happen with Shamanix 3.54 BigStorage, it's likely a problem with Schap's 4.00 or in the parent 3.62 ROM
