"2. Open Touch Cab Center = I'm going to include some commanly used cabs with the rom, you choose which ones you want and need."

Does this mean we can add any cab we want to the rom or we can only choose what cabs you have included? Keep up the good work.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] JLine05:
Looking good. You may want to include the new radio in this rom.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
I've included commanly used cabs with this rom. You will simply go to Cabs Center and click to install the ones you need or want.

There will also be another option within the Cab Center for you to install cabs from your sd card.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] mjo404:
Hey ttran

Whats the ETA?

thanks
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
I'm trying to have the beta ready for the beta team to test tomorrow.

I'm currently working on adding more cabs to the rom.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] MDANavymom:
Great!! I am done with finals, now have time to play!!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] timace:
i know...

its been asked but i just read a thread and it confused me, i have the 3.0 biggy on my device and used USPL for the rom, but now am i goin to need to need HardSPL to install this new rom since its not clean 'out of the box'...i read tht as long as ur IPL and SPL were above 4.0 then u can still use USPL to install...or am i completly wrong?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
That's wrong information...

I don't like to force people to use HARD-SPL unless they want to.

I mean I could include it as a package and have people just become HARD-SPL without knowing, but that would be the wrong thing to do.

I know that the current installation process is kind of old but it's made for folks that do not wish to have their devices become HARD-SPL.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] timace:
Awesome, thanks for your quick response and great work, cant wait...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] tipz:
I am a little confused.

so if i understand correctly.

in UC version after the install it will give us option which cabs to install right?

if that is the case isn't that going to affect the size of the installed rom and space after install is done
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
You are correct, if you notice the program and storage space is less than the v3.0 lite, but not much..

There are two options, one is to install cabs already included in the rom, which will reduce some of the space.

Two install cabs from your own sd card to your sd card which will not effect the ram size.

In the original UC, you have to have your config file and cabs already on your sd card before flashing the rom. Since it will auto install after the flashing has completed. I've made it where you can use the UC option when your ready.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] flyinbird93:
Looks good, i'm excited! i've been waiting to try and fix my phone till 4.0 was released.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] bgould:
Is there any way to have the theme the same color as the backround? It matches my wing PERFECTLY. I've been searching around for a navy blue-ish theme with no luck. Even if you can just provide a cab to have that nstead of the black htc theme would be great.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
No,

I'm going to release the beta version only to the beta team tomorrow for testing. This takes a day or two depending on how many issues come up.

Once everything looks good I will then release it.

Regards,
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] bowlopho:
will bbconnect work with this rom?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ducvader:
I like that - so does this mean no more 5 - 7 hours installation process for me? That's about how long it takes for me to install from start to finish after flashing. I like the lite and slimeline versions btw.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] hoolahoous:
i am waiting eagerly for this ROM.. if you are including voice speed dial, can you please make sure that registry entries and the voice command files are included ? secondly if possible can you please take care of the home screen not aligning correctly when switching from landscape to portrait

I am probably being slow here, but how do I access the Cabs Center and the SMS setting that are shown in the screen shots?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
I removed the cabs center, it works fine but takes up too much resources and until I'm able to figure out how to reduce the resource issue I will not add it back.

As for the sms settings that was removed during trouble shooting, this will be readded to the next update.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] dakidhurricane:
thanx for the quick response.

Low Battery Life

I really liked this rom but I was finding my battery would only last about a day so I went back to open touch 3.0 and im back to 3 days battery life. I dont know what it is about 4.0 that makes the battery so short lived. If its a setting or something somebody knows about please let me know and I'll go back to 4.0 Thanks

I was using 4.0 biggy with cube. No big deal though, 3.0 works just fine for me.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] xspsi:
I had the same issue. I used to own a MDA and when this occurred I just flashed to oem rom and then flashed back to the rom that I wanted. I did the same thing to the Wing and it worked for me. battery life is back to 2+ days for me instead 1/2 a day.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
scrap that its working, had the wrong username --- must have been tired that day

my bad...

on a side note - does anyone have the batterystatus.cab for the version in this rom... mine dissapeared and I reinstalled the wrong version on top of the old one and its not the same...

disappearing text messages and email accounts

I have been having issues with disappearing text messages and email accounts... probably about once a week this happens, email accounts disapear, and all my text conversations get erased, but the total messages still show but the ones that are on the list I can't view...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] roman2113:
I also have this problem with email. I notice that randomly they get wiped out. No problems with text messages though. Anybody else?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] v2comp:
yes I have noticed the email thing, but i think its because of the setup in my email settings that had to do with how long to keep messages .......i will try to confirm that tomorrow.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] bigboyevo:
I just started noticing the email issue. Also I can't send emails thru my yahoo account anymore, and I would have to reset my phone to get Pic messages to come thru.

Another problem I am starting to have is my phone has be resetting by itself at odd times.

Sorry folks,

Been very busy today at work, I just got home like an hour ago.

I will try and finish it up tomorrow but not sure yet, this will depend on work.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Cye3212:
Ttran, love the work, still hittin hard with the good ol 3.0 - lookin forward to 4.0. One thing, might I suggest a new splash screen? preferrably from poorlyduck like in ur previous releases? the digi-blue seems a bit retro, so maybe bring some daark-toned splash screen like that back?...this is purely my opinion, even if you dont change it that is cool, just a suggestion. Thanks.

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Master Loon:
T I agree with J on this. i seem to have less connection issues with the new radio......

Unless it's tmo messing with their signals getting ready for better speed!!

I hope:rolleyes:
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] dewittk:
I too would love to have the updated radio....

ttran...not to sound too eager, but when do we get the v4??!! You da man!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] alongenemylines:
so, i gotta ask. is the comm manager randomly pop up fixed?

i'm already strating to gather everything i want to re-install.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ElProempie:
I'd like to see something with lots of finger sweeping things. Like the Cube and stuff like that. Scrolling with Fingersweeping actions, Closing.

Also i like to have lots of graphical stuff. i dont know what to say more. Just some thoughts
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] bgould:
I know I asked this question before, but I haven't seen an answer. Is there any way you can create a navy blue theme for this ROM? I would love to have something to match the color of the wing. Even if it's just something you provide extra or can show me how to create. I would appreciate anything you can offer! Keep up the great work on your rom's. I can not even begin to imagine the process involved in cooking a custom rom.

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] raduque:
If you go with this, let's make it all optional. I don't want to see stuff like this become the only way to navigate.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ElProempie:
Well i dont mean that this would be the only way, but just to make it like a real Touch ROM. Not the Touch from HTC but just Touch.

I agree with you to make it optional. Like including it in the ROM but make it optional in the way so you can turn it off and on.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] roman2113:
Hey TTRAN do you have a new ETA? Cant Wait! But I guess good things come to those who wait right? :D
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] FZZF:
So TT destroyed my phone!!!!!!!! no not ttran my Audi TT...!!..lol... I drove over my wing yesterday completely destroyed it, after I picked it up the screen was shattered, the sides busted and parts were hanging off, some keyboard buttons popped off but as I am examining it it started ringing "you're $hitting me!?!?!?!" is what i said out loud..!! I hit the send button and it answered and I had a 40 min conversation on it I even used the speaker phone..!! that is one well constructed and tough phone, good thing I have insurance so for a $110 deductible a new one is on its way it should be here Tuesday and I will be neeeeding to flash it with this rom, so I hope it will be done by then, it sounds like a fantastic ROM I was using v3.0 and loved it, I like that this will have voice command and working and it's UC compliant. TT keep up the good work .
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ElProempie:
Hehe.. i guess HTC is starting to look like Nokia. We all know nokia are strong builds. They just never break. From what i hear from you, HTC cant break aswell. I love HTC :cool:

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
Folks,

I was not planning on using the Vista suite by poorlyduck since there are already a few roms with it, but lot of people have been pming me asking for it to be included.

Now, what I need to know is do you folks really want it included?

Regards,
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] MDANavymom:
I would perfer it not...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Claus1985:
I would like something more touchable...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
Hi,

Please provide more details as to more touchable?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] roman2113:
If you are refering to the cube theme then it would be something different from the regular cube that we're used to. For those that do not want cube installed I would just have this as a cab.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Claus1985:
I have tested many roms and programms to provide as much comfort using the phone with one hand as possible. Your Open Touch 3.0 in my opinion is still the best rom out there! :-) But I have found some good alternatives to the build in windows mobile programms that can easily be used by one hand (and hopefully included in your next rom *g*):

- I prefer icontact as my favorite contact manager (fast, stylish and freeware!)

- Slide2unlock is a great tool too. It shows missed calls, sms etc.. (using it since my first rom and love it)

I am still searching for the perfect Shortcut prog. for my today screen. I have tried nearly all iPhone styles but most of them are too slow and the rest just doesent fit for me... (I love the idea of having 5 medium Shortcuts at the bottom of the today screen, iPhone like). :confused:

I dont know why but I dont like useing the Cube... I know it sounds like the perfect fingerfrindly app but I never really used it... I like the idea of a fully touchable Windows Mobile (big program Icons, Easy to use settings and so on...) without using a seperate tool like the cube.

Last but not least I hate using the standardt messaging tool build in because you have to use the stylus before you can start typing... (It takes me way more time creating a sms with my herald than with my previous Nokia 9300)

So finally I hope you could include some of these suggestions in your new Rom to make it more fingerfriendly! :rolleyes:

Thank you for your great work!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] mjo404:
Vista

No thank you on the vista theme!

People who want it can include in themselves correct?

Thanks again Ttran!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] v5HMeca:
As far as aesthetics go, I prefer blue themes. I'm not a fan of Vista or black ones. In fact, I want to see about creating a Luna Element theme for PPC.

[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
Hi,

Thank you for you input and I've thought about this before but then a lot of folks might not want it.

I'm all about cooking roms for users to enjoy and majority rules with the over all out come.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Claus1985:
Thank you for listening! =)

Im using Open Touch 4.0 anyway because its gonna be must have!

I would appreciate it if you could include icontakt and slide2play in your cabs to install app!

Thanks in advance!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] v5HMeca:
OT4.0 will have UC. You can just run UC after install and those cabs will install automatically. :)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Claus1985:
O.K. now I think I understand what everybody meant with UC....

Just an app that installs all .cab files from sd card automatically!?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
That is correct, it will give you more control over the rom.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
That is correct they can install it after the rom has been flashed, but then some folks will not know how or want to.

This will make things simple, I will have to different version, one with vista and one with open touch.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] MDANavymom:
I guess I shouldn't have voted on the theme since I will be changing it red when I get it anyway. :)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ttran001:
Does that mean you don't like my rom colors..hheheh
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] roman2113:
Your roms pretty TTRAN no matter what color it is! lol
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] MDANavymom:
Well....most ROMS are either Blue or Black and you know me I am a RED person myself. ;)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] MDANavymom:
Oh no, you used the "P" word!!!!!!!!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] xyexz:
I don't think you could get a large mass of people to vote on one globally supported theme. I believe that's why theme-ing exists, because no-one is happy with just one theme ;)

I love your work but don't forget to take a break every now an then, as a application developer/web designer I know what it's like to have new projects dumped on me as well has being engulfed by those projects lol.

What is the speed like compared to V3.0?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ahmadh007:
One thing that I noticed in v3.0 was the playback of youtube vids. Compared to v2.5, the playback was a lot smoother.

Nonetheless, there is still some lag in video playback. Maybe an improvement on that?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] SimonNWalker:
Color Schemes and V4

Personally I'd be happy to have the option of different color schemes available to install as cabs or other means that you could create.

This would be the ideal solution if it's possible.

But more than anything I'm ready for V4..LOL

Your previous versions are the best ROMs available and I wish I was savvy enough to help you out when you your so busy so we can get V4 finished. Unfortunatly I'm not, so just do the best you can and I'm sure that we will all be EXTREMELY happy.

Keep up the good work ttran.

Yo da man!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] pseudoproto:
Theme Options

As much as I like Open Touch there is always the personal element that ttran001 should not have to deal with, otherwise he would have to make a couple thousand versions. I still like tweaking with some settings here or there. That is what makes the phone mine. Ttran is giving me the fast, stable base to use as my cornerstone.

That's the main reason I don't have a problem with whatever he puts out, it's quality and free. I never expect him to come out with the "Proto Touch" version just because my perfect ROM changes from day to day, and I adjust accordingly. Why should "the man with the golden ROM" have to include my every whim, just give me the base and the space to do what I want. That's what makes it so great.

I'm really not trying to pick one you SNW, I've seen a lot more post that basically demand updates from ttran. I also feel the same way about v4.0, I'm nearly glued to this forum in anticipation. I think the last post by xyenxz sums it up.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ElProempie:
You just bring me a good idea.

How about a Glossy Bar Colour chooser thing. Everybody's choice of colours can be enabled.

Damn, i need some sleep. Sorry about my english.. :(

Open Touch v4.0 Micro Update!

Folks,

I was going to strip the rom down to 60MB+ for storage but then the phone would not be fully functional. Plus you would have to spend more time adding core stuff back in.

I've gotten it down to 55MB+ Storage and 28MB+ Programs with it being more functional.

Testing a few more things and I will upload it for the beta team.
