Also, I had the very same problem with 1.30a.

IMHO it is application incompatibility, as I did not experienced the problem, before I installed my applications.

Let's try to identify the problematic app. I use a lot of SPB software: Mobile Shell, Phone Suite, Traveller, GPRSmonitor and Pocket Plus. Then Fring, GoogleMaps, Memmaid, HiCalc and a couple of others. I also have iGO (a.k.a MioMap) installed, which uses bluetooth to connect GPS, however, I have not connected the GPS device yet.

Time/Clock Problem Part 2

Kin0kin,

Seems you were right; the PDA time-synchs with my laptop as soon as I plug it in. I just hadn't spotted this before. I could not find the autosync to operator setting you referred to.

Solution to the problem seems to be to set the laptop time to the timezone I am in then synchronise the PDA. However I will be keeping my eye on this just in case that is not the final solution.

Thanks.

To use the extended rom as storage, unhide extended rom and create a folder called "Storage". Hide Extended Rom, and soft reset. The ExtStorage shortcut will become active after that. To learn more about some issues with using extended rom as storage with this mthod, click on my name and look up all the thread over created and you will find the thread about my method of using extended rom.

kinokin,

i have tried that but it says tat the extstorage is locked. i have tried unlocking it with the advance config but i still cannot create folder in it.

Lo and behold, using a 6 mb PP now and at 50% program mem in use :)

If anyone has an explanation as to why changing it to a 12 mb PP would suck up program mem I would much appreciate it.

I have always found the higher the page pool the less program memory I have available. I need as much program memory as possible so have to make a trade off between this and page pool size - this is pretty much the only thing forcing me to get a Kaiser but I will hold off until the video issue are sorted out!

@Kin0Kin

I have only one MAJOR gripe with your Rom's :)

...and that is the colour you use for the highlight bar.. it's a dark grey and can get lost many times as it will totally blend in with some of the colours on my start menu and a few other menu's. Is it possible to find another colour? :)

Kin0Kin,

I have tried 1.31 (Full) and currently using 1.30b (Full). I really like them both. However, 1.30b seems a little faster. I'm sure that many of your users like the preconfigured full versions of these ROMs.

The one thing that I would like to see is a "FlexiLite" version of 1.30b. It would be a bare-bones version similar to Shamanix's WM6 Ultimate. This would allow the user to have complete control of which software or cab packages are installed.

Thanks for your good work!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Radimus:
Me too... FlexiLite sounds great. I'm running Flexi now after removing most of the removable stuff.

I'm considering running 1.30b and just ignoring all the extra HTC stuff, since it is supposed to seem to be much faster

I followed instructions to install but couldn't get it to work

Hello,

THanks for the link. I was interested in updating the camera program. I noticed that i had two icons for camera after the install. So the cab didn't over write the one i had on the phone.

How do you suppose i go about installing this cab?

When i did install it, the camera wasn't working. I would try to click on the camera button or when the HTC album would start up i would click on the camera icon but nothing.

Once i uninstalled the cab, the camera (old version) was functioning.

So i'm presuming that i have to delete the 1st app. and then reinstall the new cab.

Also if you gotten to install it is is working fine and is it a worthy install.

I have come to realize that HTC camera's really suck. I don't know why... they make a great phoe but have a sucky camera.

Sony Ericson have it right.

Well... i do mostly use the phone for PDA functionality which is not found on the SE.

Any suggestions are help ful.

PCM Keyboard

I installed the PCM Keyboard, selected the keyboard and changed option, but each time I power cycle my device or end the application it reverts back to standard keyboard. Is there an option I am missing?

Downloaded and installed DefaultIM and this corrected the problem.

Bluetooth problem

Some of us have problems with turning on Bluetooth.

I found some strange things which could help to solve this unpleasant bug. After soft reset there is no problem to turn on Bluetooth. After some time (different) it is impossible to enable BT.

1.) When I start Garmin Mobile XT BT is turned on automatically!? Why Garmin can turns on BT, but ComMng can't?

2.) If I remove Storage Card, I can enable BT. After re-insert SC, BT can't be enabled. I tried inserting SC while BT is ON, but SC can't be recognized.

I'm using 1.30a ROM.

Any idea?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
-Use another theme if the stock theme doesn't have enough contrast until I come up with some other themes. You can use the stock HRC_Default theme but you may need to apply the theme several times until it gets applied properly. It is a bug with the stock theme.

-There will be an update for the flexi and this rom, I will also release the lite flexi.

-Bear with me as I'm fixing the BT issue ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
I have PMed severals guys (M.MALKI, jreber2, kparikh82276, ghal) with the link to a beta Rom. Let me know if you could reproduce the BT problems in this Rom. Unfortunately the only BT I have now is my PCs, my dog destroyed my headset so I can't really do much to try it :(

Update Camera

Update HTC Album

Update HTC Task Manager [EXT]

Update Connection Setup [EXT] - Now with Rogers Canada Support

Update WMWifiRouter [EXT]

In 1.32, you will be able to use Hotvoice on Button 5 & (press and hold) without any conflicts with in-call keyboard. If you have any suggestions, please let me know before I start working on it :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mcorrie1121:
The symbol pad was not included in this ROM. If you need more symbols, insert a symbol on the pad and then press dot-space to change to another. Each keyboard symbol has a few more hidden behind it, if u will. Mess around with it to see where things are exactly. The only one i really use is the quotation marks, which is the apostrophe, then dot-space twice.

Hope that made sense :o
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sesaru:

Yesterday I have removed Garmin Mobile XT BT from my PPC. I removed all files from device and storage card and also all entries in registry.

Now is almost 24 hour from last soft reset and BT works great. There must be something wrong with Garmin. And it is logical to me (Garmin is installed on storage card):

For now I will not use Garmin:( Sometimes I really need it... But more often I need BT. I hope TomTom will soon release maps for Slovenia and ex-yugo countries.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] PoisnBGood:
Is it possible for you to make the VoIP and the Video calling either optional, or easily removable? I don't know what the percentage of your Rom's users use either of those options, but it would seem that a significant amount of people use their phone as a normal cell phone. I installed the 2g dialer to get rid of the video calling, which wasn't a hassle. Can you make sure that the VoIP can also be overridden or removed? Also, when you say add PTT, do you mean the default will now have it on? Again, it would be nice to have that as optional or removable.

The BT issue

Ok, i might be a dork for bringing this up, but i do believe the Bluetooth radio not firing up upon soft reset is due to all the today plugins i have loaded simultaneously. IE: SPB Pocket Plus has 6 tabs with plugins in 5 of them. and also Phone Weaver and HTCHome on the Today front screen. I noticed that when i take SPB Pocket Plus off the today screen. BT will fire up just fine with a soft reset. I wish there was a way to increase the memory to have them not interfere with the BT starting. I would gladly sacrifice storage as i have about 20 megs left. lololol. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
Most likely within the next 2 weeks, but I'd really like to see how the BT issue is going with others before releasing an update.

EDIT:

I found a serious bug with HTC Album, not sure if anybody had noticed it before. The first thing is that in portrait mode, the slideshow controls are messed up. Secondly, if you are viewing slideshow from either mode, and change to another half way during the slide show, the slidehow would crash. I am considering bchau's suggestion in having htc album launch in landscape mode only. Also, the new Camera is missing registries in the cab. I'm kinda lazy to dump Dutty's Rom for the registry but will see how it goes.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kparikh82276:
Hello Kin0Kin,

I got the PM, and i downloaded and installed the ROM.

I then restored using spb backup (prior to restore i tried the BT function by starting it up using the com mag. and it worked smoothly)

After the restore it is working better then before but there seems to be a lag in responsiveness so i'm attributing it to the programs installed etc.

But non the less it is functional even with restoring. So that makes me think it was a ROM issue and not program incompatibility issue.

What say you? What did you change in the new ROM that you provided?

Thanks again... i can finally enjoy the ROM (not that i wasn't enjoying it before)

Again this is Day 1 of the new install. Will report back if new bugs found. But nothing thus far.

Thank you.

I am on the same exact page as PoisnBGood. I am in the USA on at&t and a cingular 8525. My hermes doesn't have a frontal cam and I don't use the video calling for that reason (and the fact no one I know has an end point for our video call!!). I also have no use for VoIP (yet), nor do I subscribe to PTT. So, +1 vote for making these features either optional or easily removable. And while I have your attention, thank you VERY VERY MUCH for a GREAT rom that impresses all the lady friends I have that use it from time to time. :)

Dear guys,

A very interesting experience, maybe a bug.

I use continuous Edge data communication (for Activesync Exchange push-mail). As I have learnt, GPRS/Edge can't work if you move over a certain speed. I was travelling today, driving fast (160 km/h, hopefully no policyman around:-), so communication was cut. That is normal. What is not normal, that after I stopped I was not able to connect any more to the internet. I had to soft reset to fix the problem. Then the way home it happened again.

Earlier I was using T-mobile's original WM5 ROM, it was able to reconnect.

Regarding bluetooth problem, I also can switch on bluetooth if I remove SDcard. Somebody mentioned SBP Pocket Plus: I also use it, and I have a suspect that is is the root of the problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ryaske:
ghal,

im coming from mroe of a "curious" standpoint, rather than a "helpful, insightful" one. With that said .. I assume the reason GPRS/Edge doesn't work is because you are switched between cell towers too often for the system to keep up with your location, when moving at the equivalent of 100 mph (for the americans). My interest is such.. can you dial out/ receive phone calls at the same time? If so, I don't understand whats keeping you from getting a data connection .. dont the cell towers handle both data and telephone communications? Is it a limitation of just GPRS or edge?

I'm very interested if someone can chime in with additional technical details regarding this.

Also, you are using GSM, right? If so, the same Freqs americans use? If yes to that .... I should have the same problem.. but, I am much more concerned with what is on the pavement 500 ft in front of me than I am with my cell phone, when traveling at 100 mph. Lol. But a very interesting problem indeed :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chrisrexus:

Only thing I changed in the Rom is restoring OEMDrivers back to modules as I have previously converted them to files. I've read in a thread that some modules have to be left as modules or they'd cause some instability. This shouldn't affect the speed at all sa virtually nothing has been changed.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mymegabyte:
@K

Please give us some option other than landscape only. Is a separate shortcut for landscape or portrait or current perspective an option? Then we get to pick. I know I prefer it to just match whatever mode my phone is currently in. Which it does in 1.30b if I run the .exe not through a shortcut. For most uses and most people I would be that we won't need to change from portrait <-> landscape during a show.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ghal:
It is a bit off-topic, and unfortunately I have no any technical information to share with you. I heard this "GPRS does not work over a certain speed" story from one of my friends, and according to my experience, it is true. I don't think it is because of the cells, as I can use the GSM 900/1800MHz at that speed, even I can send SMS. It is only about the data communication.

I also don't browse the web at such a speed, but I had two negative consequences:

1. My phone kept try to reconnect continuously, and in 3 hours my battery went down to 50%. Lesson I learnt: it is worth to switch of data communication (but at least ActiveSync) when I drive on the highway.

2. As I have not realised that I had not been reconnected for about an hour after arrival, I have not received my e-mails. I don't know whether it is WM6 or ROM specific, but I did not have such a problem with WM5.

P.S. I just read my comments, and they seems to be very critical. Sorry for that, I criticize for helping. I enjoy very much this ROM, it much-much better than any other PDA OS I used in the last 10 years. (I started with Psion, then EPOC, then PalmOS, then WM2003, then WM5, so I have have some experience for now :-) )

Running your beta release here

Kin0kin,

I installed the beta version that you pm'ed me and at first it was running smoothly. It is still responsive.

But i have to mention that i've noticed the following things

the HTC home is not functioning properly, meaning the pic icons disappear -- once i see this i have to do a soft reset, but the pic icons don't come back. There are times where the phone will hang. I have to softreset to get it back to full functionality. (might be just what is needed)

The responsiveness is still there but at times it gets sluggish and i have to a soft reset

This is what i did when i reinstalled the beta rom.

I reinstalled and then i did a restore using spb backup.

I'm thinking maybe i'll reinstall and see what happens...

b/c i think by restoring i might have restored some settings that are still causing some problems off the older ROM.

How does restoring work?

*** reflashed and simply started to use it ***

it was very responsive but all of a sudden it said Shell restarting or something of that nature.

I had to reset.

And it started up again but i never seen that problem before. And this time i didn't even have as many programs installed.

So i think the beta one is still unstable to some degree... i did notice that in the beta one there was a little less memory free as compared to the 1.30b
