To quote the link:

"11) kin0kin has made a straight run for the elite cookers with his K's Rom v1.21. It is one of the fastest available."

CONGRATULATIONS K!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JudgeDredd67:
I will try and tell what I have and how I got there:

First and most important is K's wonderful rom with the Black Bars fix. I am also running QuickMenu and WkTask-(not necessary I just use them )

Then you will need Spb Pocket plus, when installing I just have the first 3 items checked ( because I don't need the added weight of some of the other stuff ) and the two Icon packs I have attached. The icons come from the Spb forums. I use the Ecqlipse icons on the tabs. You will also need WeatherPanel and rltoday.

Tab 1 I have unlocked the HTC Home today plug-in which allows me to place HTC Home on one of my tabs ( the first one ) I then used 4 of the default large meters that came with Pocket plus.

Tab 2 is just the rltoday plug-in with my skin.

Tab 3 is WeatherPanel with the PhatPhinger theme found here: http://pixel.citadel.org/weatherpanel/viewtopic.php?t=218

Tab 4 is just shortcuts that use the icons from the 4 part icon pack I have attached from Spb forums.

Sorry for the Rapidshare links but the iphone icons is a large file.

Storage Card and Mail Attachments

I too have the same problem, and cannot set Pocket Outlook to save email attachments to my SD Card. It says unlock or format the SD Card, but the SD Card is unlocked, and formatted, and works with Word Mobile and, indeed, some programs which are stored on it.

Anyone got a way to resove this?

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
hey folks, thanks for all the support, I really appreciate it.

Do check the change long in the first page to see why I removed task manager from this release. You can still install HTC Task manager back to the rom manually (search for the cab)

@Aaron

what? I just spent whole night making this skin :p Anyway, I hear your the first time you said that the buttons are small. I was thinking of making a 2 tap version, with 1 button equivalent to 4 current button size :D but then not everybody likes 2 tap keyboard. Also, if I ever do this, it will be a direct port from the touch keyboard, I'd use the same layout and images. I could either make it 2 tap by reducing the time the keyboard needs to show the second key, or make it tap + hold to show the second key + number (when available).

I will prolly come out with a skin that uses the same layout, but with bigger buttons...you'd have to wait and there's no promise to it. I do have some problems tapping those keys at the corners with current keyboard size TBH.

Also, it won't be possible to cook pcm keyboard into the rom with the developers permission because it was stated explicitly that they don't want that to happen as they need people to visit their site to get revenue...I don't want to pay them anything to cook the keyboard in. The expiration date (is it still in this version?) probably could be hacked (you didn't hear this from me) :p

If you know how to set the keyboard as the default keyboard, do let me know. I have tried replacing the DefaultIM registry with PCM keyboard but it just bricks the phone...with it stuck at welcome screen.

***Storage Card and Mail Attachments Fix***

This is caused by the unhidden extended Rom. As the extended rom is unhidden, outlook sees it as the primary storage card. Since the extended rom is merely unhidden and not unlocked, outlook couldn't write the files into it. I think outlook may be designed to only see one storage card and not able to see the other. If that is the case, I'd need to hide extended rom in the next release and toss a bunch of cabs in it for auto installation instead.

The easiest way to solve this problem would be to use schap's advanced config tool, go into the misc tab, and uncheck show extended rom. At the same time, go to the comm manager tab, and add button 9 as Ir...if you dont do that, you'd notice the beam button in comm manager disappeared when you get back into windows after a soft reset.

***With regards to keyboard in-call fix + PTT + Hotvoice***

As the current rom stands, we have a problem with hardware keyboard numeric + letter keys being locked to numbers only. There are currently several ways we can approach this.

1) leave it as it is - keys remained locked, BUT you get to use hotvoice in 5th button and any other hard buttons

2) fix keyboard lock - but you cannot use hotvoice in button5 anymore

Hotvoice bahaves oddly and I haven't done enough research to figure out how to get hardware keyboard fixed, and allow hotvoice to work with button 5 at the same time.

It's great that people are finding bugs, I'd exterminate every single one of them. :D

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
can you do me a small favor? After you've set it to default keyboard, use a registry tool to check

HKCU\ControlPanel\SIP

DefaultIM={?????}

do you mind writing down the ?????? for me? it's a little long though :D thanks

I have found a bug when using the keyboard:

1. Click the function key (key with the blue dot) and the S key. Instead of ", it outputs -

2. Click the function key and the W key. Instead of @, it outputs !

3. Click the function key and the E key. Instead of ?, it outputs @

I am sure there are other keys that have been mis-matched.

Giving it a final check before I upload it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jasonchiu:
awesome rom! my favorite to date, flawless!

i have a slight problem in that the symbols on my keypad are differnet to what is configured on the ROM.

is there a .cab i can fix this with?

i have the Vodaphone VPA II bought from the UK.

thanks in advance for help and advice offered

jason

Read post #318 :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jasonchiu:
as two of us are finding the same problem, could you kindly guide us to where the solution is? is there a .cab fix by any chance?

thanks for your help in advance

jason
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
You were right, it'd prolly be faster to just show you where it is than having you search for it:

I don't know which layout will work for you though....:p
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jasonchiu:
hehehe:P i dont think i understand whats written there. hope that there is a .cab fix for the problem :P

thanks anyways!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
The easiest way you can change the layout is to use Schap's Advance Config v1.1.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jasonchiu:
ohhh! i see, i didnt think it worked with other ROM's. Brillent, thanks very much for you help.

best rom out on the forum btw!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pietrucci:
Awaiting your new 1.30!

In the first post you mention:

"Hidden Extended Rom (due to pocket outlook storage card issue)"

and:

"Free Space = 67.21mb + 10mb Extended Rom".

You hide the extended because of the poutlook problem, so if we unhide it we get this problem back?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
Well, if you unhide and unlock it, you can use it as a 10mb storage card, and I believe it will work with outlook (I didn't try it). However, outlook will only see the extended rom as the storage card. I have a 2gb card so it makes no sense for outlook to use the 10mb extended rom over my sd lol

If you don't use an SD card, there are a few things you can do:

1) unhide and unlock extended rom

2) enable SD card power management (this has been disabled to solve an sd card issue)

I would suggest people from now on not to use extended rom for anything else as I have plans for it :p you will see what I'm gonna use it for when I announce the 1.30 Full and maybe....custom edition :D

Edit: there's gonna be a small delay on the 1.30 lite...having some odd issues with the ptt fix and keyboard driver.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrDSL:
Will the lite version not include HTC Home? I hope it doesn't so that way I can install a version that doesn't put the images in the /windows directory.

edit

nevermind its in green so its out...awesome :-)

Storage Cards and Email Attachments

In Post #311, kin0kin solved the email attachment problem with the following:

"***Storage Card and Mail Attachments Fix***

This is caused by the unhidden extended Rom. As the extended rom is unhidden, outlook sees it as the primary storage card. Since the extended rom is merely unhidden and not unlocked, outlook couldn't write the files into it. I think outlook may be designed to only see one storage card and not able to see the other.

That's great, and it worked a treat. Top tip however - make sure you move Schap's Advanced Confiuration Tool out of Extended ROM before you do this, otherwise it will be lost when you hide the extended ROM!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
Alternatively, you can create a shortcut before hiding extended rom. I'd be putting apps in extended rom for 1.30 full release to fully utilize that 10mb of space.

Kin0kin excellent work...

I've installed the 1.21 6mb pp and i love it.

I did notice that with this when i do text msg. When i input the name of the recipient it does not automatically search through contact like all other rom's i've tried.

WHat could be a solution for this?

Also i noticed that using Pocket IE, it starts up faster and i loads quicker... i like it but just wanted to know is it a ROM thing or something? Didn't see the difference in other ROM's i installed...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kin0kin:
That is a problem with the touch keyboard's XT9 input. There isn't really a solution to use XT9 + auto complete therefore in v1.30 lite (just release), touch keyboard has been removed. If you go back to page 1, and look at the top of the page. There is a bug fix link under NEWS that'd fix that problem.

Also, I urge that everybody read the first page, from top to bottom, before asking any question. I am usually very quick in addressing issues, your problems may already have been fixed if you check the first page properly. ;)

I have received the donation, and I really appreciate all your generosity. Somebody in the last 4 posts sent a big ticket and it really gave me a shock :eek:

1.30 Full/Custom will have some apps installed in the extended rom. Most of these apps do not require files to be in windows dir and can be deleted easily with little to no "left overs" in the registry. I will attempt to fully utilize the 10mb of storage in extended rom so that you don't have to touch it, and still have about 65mb of free space left.

Additionally, the custom edition will allow the rom to auto install whatever cabs you want from a storage card. The base rom will be the Lite rom. The extended rom only allows you to toss in 10mb worth of cabs/apps and I find that I could not put in all the cabs I want in there, but I can toss in everything I want in the storage card. Also, by using this method, it makes it easier for me to update the base rom, and also makes it easier for you to update the apps shall a new version comes out. ;)

EDIT: It appears that I missed 2 issues in this release:

-symbol fix

-contact auto complete

(I accidentally removed a registry....this is why I hate removing stuff from registry :p)

Redbull and Jaeger keeps the fires burning we should work out an XDA special deal with Redbull and try to get discounted pricing for the chefs/devs :D. In regards to the keyboad I will wait as long as it takes and support this in anyway I can the small on screen keyboard is the only major downside of HTC products (imho). Two tap would be sweet, so would a pcm skin that just displayed a larger image of the letter when a key was pressed and/or eliminated the number line and made the the letters larger and/or a port of the touch keyboard (with the full 40 key) with pcm like popup of the actual letter. Whew, well enough of my stream of conciousness on keyboards, anything you do will be great and I look forward to it!

Kin0Kin ! YOU WIN !!

Thanx for your lovely stable ROMs. You confuse me with what to use and what not ! I have been using 1.21 and very satisfied with overall performance. One Question : Can you make work AUDIO BOOSTER on any of your Roms ? Also, I belong to India and own Imate JasJam and bit confused about which Radio to use optimally in my country. The new version 1.54.30.07 works fine but eats up lots of battery. Please guide me. Also can I format my storage card on FAT32 for better performance or FAT16 is fine?

Please advise.
