I would like to confirm this so far. No problems. But I was wondering how can you edit schaps roms and make them faster. Trully amazing.Keep going. Thanks again

EDIT: I think Button 5 doesn't work now in 2.2 (in 2.1 worked) but v2.2 seems better ,stable and faster than v2.1
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kwill:
once again you have amazed us with your fast and stable roms! thanks for the time you put in
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kwill:
quick quest. how do you actually get the ptt function (not reassigning thebutton) to work on this rom? thanks ahead of time.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] arnarn911:
This 2.2 is solid and stable!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jcute:
Great work ! Is it 4 mb of pagepool?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lagoskon:
Yes , 4MB but if you change it to 6.50MB with new om-by pagepool changer YOU WILL BE even MORE amazed by its SPEED.

shamanix, i'm a fan. can you please include network wizard in future releases? your users are international, and schaps network wizard is really useful in configuring networks automatically in different countries. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
I`ve added PTT fix to the 1st post and Connection Setup Wizard to 2nd.. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LazPL:
Sticking with 2.0

Well Shamanix, I'm personally not as bothered by the slightly longer response times in your 2.0 as long as the Internet Sharing is working. I'm not even bothered by the few extra apps that had to remain from your using Schap's full version.

Since it seems that 2.0 is more stable, wouldn't it be better to keep developing that one rather than trying to cope with the various issues of Schap's light version?

I'm sticking with your 2.0 so far...

And THANK YOU for that!!

Laz
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Issues in lite version came with cooking in the fixes.. So version 2.2 is now stable as 2.0, but no internet sharing in there..

Schaps will keep internet sharing in his future lite ROMs if we don`t get the working cab by then.. :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LazPL:
Huh. Guess they don't have HSDPA in Belgium! :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] blinkin:
using 2.2 for a while and to be honest you can't find anything better for your hermes :D

P.S. Still waiting for IS fix :)

Active sync problems?

Hello, I have installed 2.2 and found that connection via usb to pc with active sync is more unstable than my previous rom, schaps 54c.

to restore connection, I need to softreset my hermes.

Is this normal with this version?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] xdaradar:
I'm using 2.2 for half a day and there's no issue's so far! Good work Shamanix

Hi Shamanix,

I have put up a mirror for your file in MU and here is the link

You can put this in your 1st post for easy access for everyone that need it.

Thanks for a great ROM.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jondaviseffect:
I just installed this ROM on my 8525 from ATT. i love it so far. it is amazingly fast and very lite compared to the regular WM6 i had on before. this is my first time flashing an extended ROM so i have a question.

After installing the rom, my phone will not automatically connect to the ATT 3G internet, it is asking me to change settings and i have no idea what to do. please help, sorry if this is a n00b question
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] shihayadreamer:
Try a search for WPBear's AT&T proxy settings cabs..might do the trick..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KarhU:
I have added benchmark of this ROM to my benchmark thread. You can check the results here. Enjoy the number crunching!

@ Shamanix - this is officially the fastest ROM of any active cook, congrats!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] blinkin:
I knew it! ;)

congrats! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
wow.. thanks for the new benchs!! :eek:

Schaps Lite is very very close in numbers, so I am taking "officially the fastest ROM" with reserve, since you will never get identical numbers if you bench same ROM more then once.

I might be wrong, but I just feel lucky with these numbers, maybe I should go play lottery !? :D

Thank you! :cool:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KarhU:
The probability of getting better results by stripping already fast ROM is still considerable - anyway it is a proof that you did not screw anything up while cooking ;) And yes - the benchmarks are rarely the same - but from the experience I know that the variability of the results is quite small.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] spastico:
I have always felt the stripped 'lite' Roms were the way to go.

You can always add something back in with a cab. Well, not always, if only we had a working Internet Sharing cab. :(

Problem with car charger

I have a motorola car charger and does not charge my hermes with shamanix v2.2. I have tried putting the registry keys:

HKLM/Drivers/BuiltIn/Battery/EnableUSBCharging = 1

HKLM/Drivers/BuiltIn/usbfndrv/EnableUSBCharging = 1

and no charging also. The only way to charge with car charger is softrest and then it charges my phone. But if I disconnect and connect again, no charging.

Previously, with schaps 3.54c and the registry keys, the car charger works fine.

Is a bug with shamanix version, schaps base version or the build of wm6?

Any solutions?

thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] drewty:
I'm also using Shamanix v2.2 with a motorola car charger without any problem.

I did not change any of the registry keys at all.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zammykoo:
i like the rom a lot too, its a lot quicker than other wm6 roms. i'm new to the touch/kaiser comm manager layout, and wondering where the silent mode shortcut went. can anybody tell me how to add it in the comm manager?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Use Schap`s Advanced Config. to change Comm Manager buttons to your likings ..

Clear the bottom of your Today Screen

Here is a little something I cooked up. This cab serves three purposes.

1) Removes the Soft Menu buttons at bottom of Today Screen, gives more avaliable screen.

2) Removes both Wireless Manager and Power icon at bottom of Today Screen.

3) Removes the icon that appears when you use the Toggle Vibrate Mode.

Enjoy and let me know how you like it.:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] res_au:

I like it! Nice and quick. Thanks!!!

I tried changing the pagepool to 6.5 like lagoskon said. Being a noob, whats a pagepool, and does it make a difference?

New ROM revision thoughts

Merry Christmas everyone!!

I am waiting for Schaps to release his new lite ROM with internet sharing and I will be working on a new revision of Grass ;)

I just wanted to hear your thoughts on the new wait cursor..

Should I cook Marshall`s Vista Wait Cursor in the ROM or have it as optional cab in the addons ?

Here is the picture of it..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mcorrie1121:
Good work, but does it not cause the boot up hangs that removing the icons via reg edits does?

On another note, is it me or is voice recorder missing altogether??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] debonairone:
Looks good, but can it be transparent (remove the square background around it...) If that can be done, then I would vote for it being cooked into the rom... if not, then make it a cab file...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Unfortunately this one can`t be transparent, but there is another one that needs to be run after each restart and is transparent, but that one doesn`t have vista wait cursor image, so it is not an option for cooking in :D

Well then, I think its better not to cook anything in, those that want it can easily install it from cab..

@mcorrie1121: voice recorder is in the addons as cab... ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mcorrie1121:
Ah missed that. Thanks!

Hi, just to check anyone with VoIP problem? I double the "VoIP Setting" & got this error "An unexpected error has occured in SetupVoIP.exe. Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information." Any way to fix this error. Overall ur ROM is very fast & stable. Thx.

Yea, Htc Touch keyboard/keypad use xt9 so it disables predictive text.

There is a regedit in the touch extracted apps thread you can make to get predictive text back, but then you lose xt9.

Shamanix, overall very nice rom. However i find that the bluetooth is not that stable with handsfree device. The device always drop out. i.i when i call, the handsfree is not working sometimes is work. I dont have a problem on Shap full rom.

Is there a fix?

Task switch & extROM

Hi there,

first thanks for great ROM I really like it but have a few questions.

I've unlocked the extROM using Advanced config tool and I am able to view it, but is there a way I could possibly change its content?

Why there is FTouchFloConfig.exe when there is no TouchFlo?

There are a few nice micro apps (minimize, taskswitch, rotate)... is it possible to assign some of them to quick buttons (ex. taskswitch to button5 instead of task manager)?

I can confirm the bug with SetupVoIP won't run (probably some dll version mismatch?).

Thx :)

Car Bluetooh Transfers

Shamanix, I want to say this is the fastest ROM I have ever used on my AT&T 8525. GREAT work!

Thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KOPRajs:
Sound latency

I've got one more issue with this ROM. It seems that all sounds are delayed against video. It is obvious while playing any game or watching video.

I'm new to Hermes and I haven't tried any other ROMs yet except original WM5 which has the same issue.

I'd suspect some sound buffer to cause such delays.

Is there a way to fix this? It's annoying when you drive over a pedestrian in Carmaggeddon and the crash sound comes nearly a second late :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ibeqa:
Bravo

Very good ROM, I like it alot, the only problem is VOIP error.

Good work

Tried the ROM but something is missing...

Hello Shamanix, thanks for creating a stable ROM, non the less, there were certain things that i felt were missing.

I don't know how you'd want to change the ROM.

But i had a hard time trying to get the internet connections etc.

i had a hard time w/ the over all set up.

But otherwise it was very stable.

The internet sharing which i use on and off, was missing.

Maybe i need to look through the entire thread to get answers...

But thanks for contributing.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] arnarn911:
Now that there is a schap's 4.01 lite with working VoIP and Internet Sharing, I hope our Shamanix 2.2 can also get IS and VoIP.

This would be perfect! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] spastico:
Shamanix asked me how I did it, and I plan on telling him. :)

But I'm trying to put something together that he can just add to his rom, and he would be good to go.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kipe:

cheers guys!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] arluckett2002:
Are you going to make a rom based on schaps 4.30 rom? Grass v3.0 perhaps?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] arnarn911:
whoa! im sooo looking forward to this.. would a cab installer be possible? :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Thank you Berd, I am waiting for your reply.. :D

I`ve played a bit with Schaps 4.30 ROM and it has too many wierd issues, same as Schaps 4.22 ROM..

So I am planning to use Schaps 4.01 ROM or official 3.62 ROM for the new release, any thoughts ?

Also I am thinking of renaming my new ROM to "Shamanix`s WM6 Ultimate" with Vista Ultimate theme.. :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] diezoo:
I agree with you, take an official an do your great work, it will be fantastic! :D

Thank you Shamanix! I will waiting for your Ultimate rom... ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] arnarn911:
Hi Shamanix! Your 2.2 with IS and VoIP would be the ultimate. Using schap's 4.01 would mean older OS build. I hope you can add IS and VoIP to your 2.2. Thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sceng_me:
Thank you for new rom
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kipe:
@shamanix.. yes, schap's 4.01 is the better choice..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Newer build doesn`t mean it is actually better in general.. I like to have newest builds too, but if older build works better, numbers don`t mean anything.. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] arnarn911:
I see. Glad to know that. Its just that i never encountered any issues/bugs with your 2.2. Ive tried almost all of Schap's roms and yours. This 2.2 is definitely the keeper for me.

Anyway, i still will surely try your next rom whatever. Thanks again! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KOPRajs:
Sound latency

Does noone encounter the delayed sound? In every game I've tried and while playing video in CorePlayer and probably everywhere else the sound is delayed after the video. Could that be my hardware problem or even Hermeses general problem? I've only tried two ROMs already but all seems to suffer from this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KOPRajs:
Keyboard layout

One more question. I need to modify the sym.0409.txt file and add czech chars to it. I've got the modified file but I can't replace the original in \Windows because of "Access denied" (the file is probably in ROM). Any suggestion? I really need to type CZ chars on hw keyboard.

thx :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hamster0914:
Are you using the standard file explorer? Try something like GS Finder, it may let you do it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KOPRajs:
Keyboard

Thx, GSfinder helped, the hw keyboard issue is fixed.

Now for the sound... I still have all sounds delayed nearly a 1 sec after the video. I've tried exactly the same binaries of a few games on the HTC STRK and the sound is not delayed there so it's not problem of those games.

I've read somewhere that sound on Hermes is accelerated hrough Imageon chip as well as video and therefore I suspect some Imageon's sound buffer to cause the latency of sounds. Sounds are delayed everywhere not only in games but in games it matters the most.

Is there some sound buffer settings in registry? Or any way to fix this? I hate the fact that games are running better on old STRK with 200MHz than on my new Hermes with it's fastest ROM :rolleyes:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
I`ve tested the video in windows media player and tried 2 games, no sound delays whatsoever.. :confused:

Anybody can confirm this ?

I don`t think it is a ROM problem, maybe something is wrong with your device..

Try flashing any other ROM and see if problem is still present ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hrcro:
Everything is ok on my device (Spb minesweeper, boney boy, ufo)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KOPRajs:
Sound latency

I have tried a few ROMs and have the issue with all of them (Shap's 4.30, Pandora 7, Black Satin, ...)

Could this be a hardware problem? I've got SPV M3100.

I've tried Mophun, Worms World Party, Tycoon, AoE, CorePlayer 1.1.1, ... and the delay seems to differ but always is there and is noticeable.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Vertigoin_Nuts:
Best so far

Shamanix,

As a regular flasher, I must say, your Grass 2.2 has been my favorite. I've tried some of the latest ROM since your release and still find myself missing yours. Good work!

:)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TauTau:
I want to change the dialer, I like those black ones with large buttons (kaiser&touch I think). Though after searching, it seems some of them are unstable or make me have to reflash my device... So I'm asking, which one is safe to use with this ROM? I don't need a video dial button, since I have a AT&T 8500 anyway....

Otherwise a very nice ROM so far (only running it 2 days now)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Shamanix:
Thanks guys!! :D

Ooops, I forgat to include Kaiser 3G Dialer in addons package :o

It will be included in the addons with my newest ROM..

New ROM is finished, but I will give it a test drive until tomorrow and if everything is good, will release it when I get back from work..

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KOPRajs:
Anyone still running 2.2 or older?

I just flashed and configured new Ultimate 1.0 and it's great but I'm missing 3 *mini*apps from this one.

Anyone could upload them?

They are TaskSwitch.exe, Minimize.exe and RotateScreen.exe and can be found under \Extended_ROM when it is shown(can be very eassily done by checking "show EXT_ROM" in Advanced Configuration Tool).

Thx
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TauTau:
why not just copy them from the Extended Rom somewhere else? Thats what I did with Taskswitch.exe when I found it...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] KOPRajs:
I already got them.

And yes that's what I wanted to copy them anywhere else but first I need to get them as I had got my device configured with the new ROM.

ExtROM

Does flashing this Rom (grass v2.2) will delete my existing data on ExtROM?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] slaki85:
Sry for dumping this old thread.But this rom is maybe best rom ever maded for HTC Hermes.My second favourite is CRCs.

I recomenned this rom for all users.I use this rom very long time.I flashed my device maybe 60-70x,and this ROM is best. Why ?

1.

After instalation this rom give you 31,8 MB (record) free ram...

2.

Speed?Fantastic fast.In all tests he is fast like Black Satin ROMS.No lag.Start menu scroll without lag.I tested opened Skype,MSN,SkyFire (best browser),IRC chat,FIM (facebook instant messenger) and opened office files,and phone is still fast !!!

3.

Functions:

MMS : Working 100% Receive/Sent

Cameras: Not problems

Wi Fi : No problems (no problems with wpa/wpa2)

3G dialer FAST and WORK !!!

Bluetooth: Work Send/Recieve work !! For some devices you need to turno on OBEX transfer (Advanced configuration tools - Already on device )

IRDA: Tested Work,

Large storage/Many space

little problem: VOiP is not good implemented.CPL icon in control panel cant start VOiP configuration.But if you install VOiP 6 cab this will work fine.

Office: Work All.Yes,and One Note.Tested and Office 2010.Work perfect.

so expect little voip problem,this rom after months and months of use,dont have bugs !! I am advanced user and I really have a lot of programs installed.

4.Why this rom ??

Fast/No bugs/Best for bussines use/this rom is not only clean...He is VERY CLEAN.Only 2 available roms give you 31 MB of ram.And 2 roms with 31 mb of ram is much faster roms for Hermes.Look thread with mass tests.

This ROM is not new.But he is still best (in my opinion,and in opinion of tests : ).If you like Lite/Naked/Very Fast/Many ram rom this is the no 1. 100%.

Also and black satin roms are very good.(expect 3G dialer,they have 2G dialer

Shamanix dont develope this ROM anymore,but he DONT NEED to be developed.I dont think that he can be better.
