Threaded Sms problem

@Cloudyfa

Any solution for disabling threaded sms without disabling the sms notification ?

I noticed another bug using the Long press end key... when it is set to "terminate data connection", pressing anf holding the end key doest do anything!!

Thanks for ur work..
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mcdull:
May I request if you can compile a rom without the 3D cube function for low memory Elf?

thanks alot .
[Touch GSM ROM Development] 200mpx:
Try this trick:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings]:

SMSAvailable"=dword:1 - Threaded sms

SMSAvailable"=dword:0 - Classic view of sms
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dash7869:
any other mirrors? rapidshare never works for me...

sorry for the trouble!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] tiftof:
Cloudyfa,

did you have time to look into the bug which makes the contact list blank sometimes? I noticed I'm not the only one having that problem when using this rom.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] karim099:
thanks for ur reply

i asked for classic vew without disabling the sms notifications... when u have SMSAvailable set to 0, receiving an sms will not make a sound or vibrate!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] karim099:
just read the first post!!

ROM for Elf + Elfin

ShadoW 2.1

so its flashable for both elf and elfin
[Touch GSM ROM Development] paulleung:
Yes, I've the same problem. I need to quite the contact and open it again then become in normal screen.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] charli:
Thanks Cloudyfa!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Casaboontha:
Thanks, this seems to be a smoking ROM...for me even a little more responsive than the 2.0 version.

Great work!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] wuub:
Seems like a bad flash... try to reflash (not hardreset)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] JohnQ:

[Touch GSM ROM Development] danish.kagzi:
Hey thnks dude.....actually i ws used to using FTP.....its transfering.........thnks dude.....and more prob.......i m unable to download my weather forecast.....which i ws previously able to do......i connect my touch through wifi....plz do try to solve this also for me,.............thnks in adv
[Touch GSM ROM Development] wuub:
For FTP is use Total Commander (CeCmd)

For the weather you just need to :

- disable HTC Home plugin

- go to the registry (with Cecmd or PHM regedit for example)

go to HKML/Softwares/HTC/HTCHome/weather/settings/ and delete every thing in there

- also delete every thing in the HKML/Softwares/HTC/HTCHome/weather/ exept the settings folder

- Relaunch HTCHome and sync again

Works for me
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
You...like...the...points,...do...you? :D :rolleyes:

Weather updating can be problem of the city you have choosen. Try another one and see if the city datas will be downloaded. The turn back to your previous city.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
I Think you´ve done a complete Cid Unlock including the third step, right?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vincent_nsw:
Yes I did the CID unlocking and is successful. However, I dont understand why after the ROM log, the touch just turns itself off. Could someone pelase shine some ligh on this issue? I flush again and again and still the same issue ... :(
[Touch GSM ROM Development] ptitrusse:
Hi all

Excellent rom...

just an issue that bothers me (other than the weather + sms threading issues but that's been solved... btw i think you should add in the fist post small details about flashing (ie stopping before 3rd step for elfin) and the way to solve these issues everyone seems to be experiencing (ie the weather not updating))

so there goes :

when i miss a call the little phone icon in home displays a (1), but when i click on it, it doesn't redirect to missed calls but to the ones I passed... it should at least redirect to the "all calls'" tab... i was wondering if there was a reg key for that, but i havn't found anything ...any help appreciated :)

cheers to all :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
Which touch are you using? 128mb-Version or the huge one (256 mb) touch enhanced?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vincent_nsw:
I am using Touch enhanced. I just flush with [WM6.1] Elf(in) ShadoW 2.1 CE and still the same result, after the ROM logo, turns off. I dont know how pda phone works, can it be something like the link after the ROM logo to the OS is broken ... :confused:
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
I don´t want to sick you up, but you said that you´ve read the existing threads about flashing. Now you have bricked your touch enhanced because you don´t read the threads!!

Otherwise you had known that the cid unlock procedure on touch enhanced have to be STOPED AFTER THE SECOND STEP!

Now you have written the unlocked spl (1.xxxxx) into the rom. The spl of the cid unlock can´t be used on the touch enhanced. Correct step is to abort cid unlocking after the second step and flash the rom you want to while the touch has only loaded the unlocked spl (white screen on touch).

Your only chance is to flash dopodasia rom and try to bring your touch back to live. If this isn´t successfully you can bring your touch to a service point.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] captkkk:
lol, I don't really see how come when people undergo such dangerous action (flashing ROM) can ever missed any posts that is accident related, anyhow, there is an ELFin USPL out on the first page anyway, so bricking the ELFin is now a less then none chance in doing so, but anyway.

Flashing the SPL 1.11 to the ELFin doesn't really kill it, I tried it, the result is only that you will end up with a 64/256 ELF, nothing more, nothing less.

Right about the flashing back to the DOPODASIA WWE will get back the original ELFin 128/256 and do it all over again.

Trial and error is what you need to get things done at the end, good luck.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
Sorry, it´s not correct. I was one of the first Touch enhanced owners who tried to flash the touch. I´ve killed 2 of the touches by using the uspl. Both were absolutely bricked, flashing the dopodasia was at that time not a tip, so i´ve changed the touches.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vincent_nsw:
:( ... Dont know why I miss out that the cid unlock procedure on touch enhanced have to be STOPED AFTER THE SECOND STEP!

But appreciate for letting me know exactly what happen to my touch.

The only ROMs I can successfully flush my touch is Elf_in__ShadoW_2[1].1_TE or Elf_in__ShadoW_2[1].1_CE or the Unofficial CHS Rom 2.24.706.1B. Getting Error (249) Invalid Vender ID if flush with RUU_Elfin_DOPODASIA_WWE_2.20.707.1B_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_BLUE_Ship_Reduced or RUU_Elf_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.11.707.1B_4.1.13.42_02.93.90_Ship, please advise lox-tt.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vincent_nsw:
Hi captkkk, may I know how you manage to flush with DOPODASIA while having SPL 1.11 in the ELFIN? I keep getting Invalid Vender ID after 2% ... :(
[Touch GSM ROM Development] guido11:
Voice Mail Icon

I upgraded to 2.1, and as the prior version, it works perfect, way better than original ROM or others flashable ones from this site (just a few tiny flaws like the slightly noticeable memory leak or that you can't see the counter on sms when you've got more than one application active).

I just want to know if it's possible to delete the voice mail icon and his message (I don't have voice mail, but I keep receiving messages of 'New Voice Mail Message' that bother me and it's a problem of my operator).

As always, great job.

G.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] captkkk:
Very simple:

- Install the 2 cab file (you should know which two I am referring to)

- Then Use the USPL (1.11 one) up to the blank screen

- hold camera and reset while keep holding the camera until you see tri-color screen

- keep usb connect and run the DOPODASIA

- all back to normal
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
Sorry, but it´s further not correct... :D

You shouldn´t reset after the touch is in white screen. ´Cause the white screen show you that the unlocked spl is LOADED, not flashed. So, leave the touch in the white screen, abort step three and start flashing the rom by using it´s own .exe . After that it should be successfully flashed including reflashing the correct spl-version.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vadyarik:
Elfin Uspl

To use ELFIN Update SPL (USPL) v1 (in step 3). Works great!:)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
Oh, i´ve read our last posts once again... It´s all not really possible for you, because your touch doesn´t start windows mobile, right? Flashing dopodasia rom should be possible in bootloader mode (press camera button while resetting until three-colored-screen appears) without cid unlocking. Keep out sim- and memory-card and try again flashing.

Good luck.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] vincent_nsw:
Yap, that is right, only can see the logo and turns itself off. Finally manage to flush with BIG STORAGE BLUE VERSION (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=345686&highlight=original+rom) but is the same, after the logo, turns itself off.

Just wondering if there is a way I can download everything from a working Elfin (including boot loader+ROM) and dump back to my touch :confused:
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Scann69:
Windows Live

Nevermind....found it. Pls ignore.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
I don´t know what you should do. I only know that a good chance bringing your touch back to life is to flash the correct dopodasia version. In that version flashing the right spl is included so that your touch should run again like a charm. Otherwise a specialist can give you some other tips... :o
[Touch GSM ROM Development] the cheshire cat:
hello I've been using this rom for a few weeks and I've been having some stability issues (weather bug was fixed with registry edit thanx guys)

the shadow 2.1 has been crashing and bugging out on me so I've got some things to report and a few work arounds:

by far the buggiest peice of software is the large start menu, if you enable menu animations and use the LSM the system freezes every time. Disabling the LSM (in settings\system) actualy reduced my crash restarts by 1/3rd and allowed me to use menu animations.

also

using the s9 A2dp at times causes my elfin to regularly crash after 20 minutes of music play

finaly:

airplane mode will cause the a2dp to stop functioning if it is EVER enabled... reflashing or using something like sprite backup allows a2dp to work properly again.

not sure if there is anything else I can do to improve stability right now it's working %87 of the time

but i can't stand software dial pad on the elfin... is there a way to make the number pads larger and more sensitive to pressure?

all and all this is a great rom please continue the work

i am using ELFIN update SPL (USPL) V1

Hi Lox-tt, I am actually using the ELFIN Update SPL (USPL) to unlock my ELFIN. According to the thread, I can run all the 3 steps, please advise.

The interesting part is after I flush the ROM, the window mobile did load at the first time, only after I turn off the ELFIN then it efuse to continue after the ROM logo. I suppose by using the ELFIN Update SPL (USPL), I won't see a white screen and should complete all the 3 steps and the go into the Tri color and flush the ROM, am I saying the right thing?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] lox-tt:
It´s the unlocked SPL... ;)

I don´t know which are the right steps to unlock and flash with the Elfin USPL. My advices are by using the unlocker for elf, which uses the 1.xx version.

Which steps you have to do is written in the stickied thread.

Which spl-version is shown by your touch when you start it?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] savale:

Safe to use?

I have some questions:

1) Is this ROM safe to use?

2) Has it memory leaks?

3) What problems does it have?

4) Pagepool?

5) I have HTC Touch 64/128, will it work? How much free memory could I get?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] ilredelniente:
1- i'm using it from one week..it looks great!

4- 8MB

5- i've Touch 64/128 too and it works fine. at reboot it has approximately 20MB RAM free.

Yo, really awasome this ROM. Lovin' it.

But is it possible (maybe in the next release) to put Canada in the Connection Setup? (I use Rogers).

And is there any way I can install Windows Live Messenger in this thing? I had it before in my original ROM, by Rogers, and I really use it a lot. I found only older versions on the web, and they don't work.

Does this works on the HTC Touch ?

Also whats the easiest/fastest way to backup my phone (Contacts and anything major important)

I have my rings, cabs, themes all on my Storage Card (how do I make sure) that all stays safe?

I need to UNLOCK the phone first?

Much thanks
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Queequeg:
Hibernate by Oxios is already built in. If you use Shadow 2.1TE there is no need to install it again.

Just run it from time to time, it works very good.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Queequeg:
There is a handy application called PIM backup. It stores your contacts, calender, SMS messages, call history and e-mail to the storage card.

It can be found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=299705&highlight=PPCPimBackup

Most of the ROM's on this forum have PIM backup already built in for convenient restore.

Your storage card will remain unaffected through the flashing process.

If you have never flashed a ROM, you need to unlock your phone.

Please read the sticky topics about flashing and unlocking before you start, just to be sure what you are doing. Flashing is very easy if you first do some reading about it and it can mess up your phone if you just blindly go ahead and do it.

Hi,

I am really like to download and try the Rom, however, I had some problems with rapidShare. Will there any other way to download the Rom?

Thanks

:D;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] LycanNyc:
Thanks so much

I just needed to be pointed to the right direction which you just did.

Also, there seems to be a couple of different ROMs, dont know how many Unlocker yet though

So I don't want to get the most experimental ROM, but instead a Win Mo 6.1 ROM thats stable or so

And if Win Mo 6.1 is not stable as of yet then I'll go with the latest stable ROM that you guys are using on the Vogue aka HTC Touch for my Sprint TOUCH
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Queequeg:
You are on the wrong sub-forum !

These ROM's are for Elf and Elfin devices only!

Sprint Touch (Vogue) and HTC Touch (Elf/Elfin) are not the same! They only look the same but that is where the similarity ends.

You can't use any of these ROM's on Vogue, it has a different hardware.

Sprint Touch uses CMDA800 and CDMA1900 network instead of GSM network.

Sprint Touch has Qualcomm MSM7500 chipset instead of Texas Instruments OMAP 850 found on Elf. The CPU is also slightly different CPU's.

Sprint runs on 400 MHz compared to Elf's 200 MHz clock...

It sounds like bricking it if you try to flash an Elf ROM to it...

Newbie question

Hi guys,

I've recently upgraded from Magician to ELFin (128/256 version), and after reading about the advantages of WM6.1 I've decided to give it a try and flash the ShadoW2.1TE ROM.

I've flashed the ROM on my Magician before, but I don't remember it being nearly as complicated, so as a newbie I just wanted to confirm the steps that I take before I go ahead and do it ... can you guys let me know if any of these steps doesn't look right, or if I'm missing something?

1-Unlock CID

- My Elfin has IPL and SPL V2, so I'm planning to use djvw's USPL v2 to unlock the CID

- To unlock, I'd first copy Cert_SPCS and EnableRapi on to the device, run them, and soft reset the device

- Then with the device active-sync connected to the PC, I'd run elfin-uspl.exe from the PC, and follow all 3 steps (unlike the other USPL where ELFin's have to stop at step 2, I believe djvw's USPLv2 is designed for ELFin and you run all 3 steps)

- After the program finishes successfully, I'll have a white screen, and I'll proceed to flashing the ROM?

2-Flashing ROM

- This is where it gets a little blurry for me ... I believe I have to first put the ELFin in bootloader mode, and disable USB connection from Activesync, and connect the device to the PC?

- With the ELFin in bootloaded mode and USB (but not activesync) connected to the PC, I just run the ShadoW 2.1 .exe file from the PC and it will take care of the flashing?

- Once it's finished, I just reset the device and it now carries the ShadoW2.1 WM6.1 ROM?

Is that correct? Anything I missed? Anything I should be careful of?

Also, I plan to upgrade the radio firmware. Current I have 3.07.90, and I believe the lastest, stable radio is 3.08.90? How do I do that? Do I have to CID unlock the phone again before I upgrade? Or do I just transfer a .cab to the phone and run it?

Thanks,

SD
