After a couple days these are the issues I have observed:

Bluetooth cannot have 2 devices connected when you are on a call, the Jabra BT8010 connects and gets the call audio, my MBW100 caller ID watch disconnects, if I try to re connect the watch it kills the Jabra connection completely.

All the Dialer screens are cut off at the bottom in every mode except 96dpi.

The icons in Threaded SMS are missing and "x" shows up instead.

I am unable to spell the To: Field name in pocket outlook, I used to be able to start typing the recepients name and it would bring up a box with all the matches. This worked for SMS and Exchange mail.

In Control Panel, System, the Task Manager icon is blank, Under Connection the Domain Enroll icon is blank.

Album seems to crash my X7500, it will hang the shell and I have to soft reset.

Everything seems very slow, windows take aprox 2x the time to open and it seems sluggish overall.

I have the same load of software as on AP3 (Resco Explorer, RegEdit, FTP, SPB Pocket Plus, AEButtons, TomTom, RescoRadio, SPB Weather, Sling Player)

Windows Media player will not open, it appears to excecute but then dissapears.

The battery meter is off, from a full charge, the second I unplug the unit it drops to 92%, I have changed batteries and it does the same thing on a brand new cell, I did not see this behavior with AP3

Opening screens are all showing "Standard Mode" even for 128dpi and 196DPI

Teksoft finger toush is very slow to come up and slow to respond to key presses.

I have my X7500 in a Dash Cradle in the Truck, every time I hit the gas the VueFlow changes to portrait, once I steady out it goes back to landscape, kind of funny actually :) Its my own personal GTech GForce/HP/Torque meter ;)

Setting QuickGPS to auto download when expired hangs the machine and HARD reset was required. ANY IDEAS WHY THIS FORCED A HARD RESET? Phone would boot to Smart Mobility screen and hand forever.

Here are the things that seem to work fine:

TomTom, didnt have to change codes or re-enable

Bluetooth with the MBW-100 caller ID watch, draining the watch power abnormally fast works fine now.

All my apps seem to work fine, no issues.

Phone functions seem to work well, Data on TMobile EDGE is great zero issues, signal strength is good.

No issues with WiFi, worked fine after the flash, even connections to WPA are working.

The weather panel works fine if you use the HTC home provided in the addons. Kind of a bummer as the new home is really nice.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] :
Same experience here with standard dpi. Everything has a delay of 2-3 seconds. Pop up of Programs or Settings or Dialer, pressing a button does take 2 seconds till really pressed after pressed.

I tried to disable VueFlo and HTC Home but still sloooow.

Video-Playback is normal speed, no lags.

Strange, seems like Athena has only 250Mhz prozessooor installed. My second device HTC TyTN is much faster at same processes. Maybe theres something running in the background thats slowing the device down. Hope lite-Version will solve this, otherwise i'll have to switch to another device. I'm unhappy with athena and i hoped AP4 will change this, but speed is not acceptable, everything else is great now.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] GuardianZX9:
I am also bummed at the speed decrease from AP3, my X7500 was much faster, I had the issue with QuickGPS that hung so bad I had to Hard Reset, so I am trying everyrhing from scratch again. I will try it today without installing anything and see how it goes.

I like the new home screen but it takes up way too much real estate so I am using PDC(pocket digital clock) instead.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Kenjari:
Thanks buddy. i actually just deleted the entire folder. I am familiar with SK Tools so I will use that as well.

Thanks

I though I might post just to echo the last few post. After installing just a few of my "normal" aps, AP4 just kind of slowed down. Especially, teksotf finger. I'm going to try disabling WsTask to see if that is what slowing it down.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] NeilM:
Installation went fine here :)

No problems with speed- seems faster than previous T-Mo ROM, which was slightly faster than AP3.0.

No missing Icons

Album hangs device if opened in Landscape mode- needs SR. No problem if opened in portrait.

WMP opens fine in both modes

TouchFlo on/off working well.

iGO8 Sat Nav fully operational

GPS OK (3 minutes for cold fix= excellent)

GPRS OK- no better or worse than before

WiFi excellent.

Opera Mobile is superb (can't work out how to zoom quickly though, apart from settings/display) !

123MB free Storage, and 80MB free Program memory after SR which is better than I expected.

All in all- A1. I can live with the Album/Landscape problem :)

Thanks AP Team- a true Magnum Opus!

Go to Opera and type the following in the address bar "opera:config". Have fun looking around.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Stonewolf:
Hi,

Actually for Opera zoom, you can simply touch the screen twice and you'll see the page zoomed. It's a kind of iPhone behaviour ... nice one :).

Big thanks for the ROM. No problem after 24 hours of testing. Better than previous AP3.

SYM.txt

What does this file? I have the same problem of chaves: when writting if i hit Fn and space bar there aren't changes in the letters and i need the letter ñ and other symbols. In my device works fine the combination Fn+tab but for me it is not convenient or fast for writting by this way. Any suggestion?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] :
Yes ROM and opera zoom is great, if you are using FTouchflo instead of build in TouchFlo you have to exclude opera with Schaps Ftouchflo config app, otherwise scrolling doesn't work smooth.

Only annoying thing is the slow speed of ROM.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] famsanr:
Acentuation

Not only it's necessary in portuguese, Spanish needs acentuation too, besides de letter ñ, the ¿, ¡, and other symbols more for an acceptable writting.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
for the speed issue can you try to go to HKLM\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE. set the limit from the high current number(123XXX or something like that) to 32768. this is the decimal value btw. see if this helps. others can also try this.

if this helps i will need to slap ltxda with a fish bc he had me set it so high back when we were doing a 19181 build and i didnt change it since :p
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
im looking into the accentation. need to get my txt doc of all the issues done so bear with me. i'll see if i can have a fix for tonight.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
the album again as i said you need to be patient with. it takes as much as 10 seconds to load. this is the best i can do at this time with it. i'll keep trying to mess with it and see if i can do anything about it.

one thing to remember: u should be complaining too much bc in the earlier version it eather never loaded or took as much as a minute to load :eek:
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
the bluetooth i'll have ltxda look into.

the dialers getting cut off are a realvga issue that has been here for as long as realvga has been out.

the missing icons in threaded sms i have tried to solve and am still trying but we might need tobias to fix this.

the missing suggestions box im looking into.

the missing task mananger and domain enroll are same as the missing icons in threaded sms.

album as i mentioned needs patience.

for speed try to tweak what i said a few posts up.

theres a fix for wmp in the bugs thread. which is also where all bug reports i guess should be. aint complaining though bc i dont mind going through both threads that much.

battery being off cmonex said is the battery and pretty much the htc drivers and how htc created them. she has a solution though so ask her how thats going.

know issue. is being looked into but like the other realvga issues, it might need tobias.

i think this is kind of the speed issue and also can be teksoft too.

lol on the vueflo. thats a real good one. u can toggle it off though by assigned the toggle to a key and when driving just have it turned off.

never ever had any quick gps issues. i use this app so much as i use my athena as a gps device loads and never had one issue. very weard. did u hard reset after flash??

wow thats it :P
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
should be easy to install. i'll probably have a version for new and old spl. also on the question with the addons. i believe with jetcet it was something like if i modified the cab to allow uninstall it corrupted the cab and made it un usable. very strange as i never had this happen before.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] lpsi2000:
PK,

The suggestion words when entering text did work in the prerelease.

I wanted to customize the HTC home, so I installed the one in the addon and try to use the program below but it gave me an error message and crashed every time I launched it.

Thanks Pawell, that will be great!

Do you mean that is possible still have the fn+space function? very good, after that we can change the order of letters in txt.file :D because in some languages Ä is more important than Á, so we can put first the more used, to get it with only one clic in fn+space.

Thanks in advanced!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] D1ab70:
hey pawel i have a few issues,

1. voip, port 5060 by default should be enabled,rtcinit should be 0x200,when sip available icon should be diff it currently disolayed a reg phone signal icon with 2 bars (even when my phone on/off) when it should be an icon with blue phone and wifi tower as shown in Help>start using your device>what does those icons mean?

also with voip selected ,when i make a phonecall thru sip i hear nothingeven when its connected, codecs issue/rtcdll.dll issue?

2.)opera, if your p.memory usage is aroung 46% sometimes opera will hang at splash if it does load and you quit and try to load it hangs.No youtube support,an option to resume files?

3.)tcpmp/coreplayer, i primarily use coreplayer then tried tcpmp and went to use coreplayer again and it wont let me play wmv files giving that classic error the coreteam has fixed by tcpmp reverts it, even when i reinstall coreplayer same issue

4.) icons issues described before

few minor issues i can describe on irc, gimme a time and well meet up on irc :)

Tell ltxda to stop beta testing that youtube plugin that shows fat naked women dancing around :p
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
yes we have found the reason for the accentation and for the suggestion in the sms/email. its caused actually by et9 or the manila sip. the gray suggestion box that comes up when typing in the manila sip is the problem. et9 changes the registry so the device doesnt use the compime anymore and instead uses a et9 dll. this break the accented characters and the suggestion box in emails/sms.

enough of the technical stuff. the fix will come in the form of a update to the config app that will come via apptodate. a new item will be added to the misc tab in the config app to turn of the et9 suggestion and in turn fix the suggestion box and accented characters. cmonex is working on this. apptodate will allert you of the update and i will also here.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
lol the youtube stuff :P

the icon issue will not go away too quick. the other issues are a priority. cmonex or tobias most likely will fix the icon issues.

tcpmp/coreplayer. u can try downloading the 0.81 tcpmp cab and removing its files and the shortcut in windows/start menu/programs Then u can try to install coreplayer. that reminds me. im starting a poll if i should continue offering tcpmp in my roms since i see most people now use core player.

opera: youtube aint coming on it too soon. i got i believe the latest opera version right now and it still doesnt have the support. the other issues though most likely will go away on new version. the problems with youtube hanging i am guessing are more opera issues than the rom. i personally never had it hang though so if u want u can give me exact instruction and what ur running etc.. so i can recreate it.

voip i never use since i dont have voip at home. i got too good of a deal on international calls that no voip service gives me :p if u want me to go into the issue more of voip tell me exactly what u are doing or find me on irc/pm.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
cmonex went to bed so looks like tommorow for the new config app. if u want to do the fixes yourself then change:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409]

"Layout Text"="eT9 IME"

"Ime File"="\\windows\\eT9ime.dll"

to

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e0010409]

"Layout Text"="COMP IME"

"Ime File"="compime.dll"

this will fix the suggestions dialog in sms/emails being missing and the accented characters.

I have the perception -subjetive by the moment- that the battery life is shorter against AP 3
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Kenjari:
Well Pawel062, I havent noticed to much of a difference since I made this change. If any, its only slightly. I'm going to probably hard reset and slowly install everything again. Hopefully, I can catch when it starts to slow down.

Accentation chars question

I've never installed a rom in a language different from Italian, only standard HTC regional roms.

I'm evaluating to install AP4.

Will I be able to keep the accentation chars I have on my localized keyborad layout (for example à and é chars that sits on the space bars).

Will be as simple as stating localized keyboard layout code in some registry settings?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Confucious:
About 4 posts ago PK told us the registry hack needed to fix the accented chars. They will release a cab to fix them but they are broken in this ROM. The cab should be released today or soon - it was one of the few things not working in the original release.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] beginner:
that solves the issue of accented characters, but you need other patch to have the keyboard on your language. If you have an non english device -the hardware- you need both
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] sergiopi:

Keyboard layout

Thank you! Hardware keyboard is the ones I was referring to (I thought it was clear from my post). The patch for the hardware keyboard has been already issued? I couldn't find any references.

Maybe editing (after the AP4 installation) the following registry setting to match my actual setting will be enough?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oem\Qwerty\]
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] DeathAngelxxx:
Hi Pawel,

Thanks for your solution on this.

First, it didn't work, because I was trying before to set my keyboard layout to German (0407) and I changed a lot of registry value that screwed the settings up. After I reverted them to 0409 your solution worked very well.

I also edited the sym-file to get my preferred (öäü) of first Fn+Space tab.

But now, I still got the problem that I just can't figure out how to set the keyboard layout to QWERTZ (+ without screwing up the Fn+Space feature).

Can you (or anybody) please help me on this issue?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Greetz,

DeathAngelxxx
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] lpsi2000:
I guess that also mean the customizer is not going to work with the HTC home in the addon as well. But you are right it worked with the one you posted and thank you.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] :
hi, i set the glyphcache to 32768 and there was only very poor increase in speed. then i made hardreset and the device is faster again, but still slow. i had maniladialer installed before. maybe this slowed the device too.

Athena never was the fastest device, but some process or driver must slow it down.

Another thing: Radio 1.57 has very good speaker quality when making a call without headset, but if there is no signal for longer time it won`t reconnect. have to enable phone manually with conn manager then to get 3g signal again.

this posting was made with opera on athena.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
i remember when i tried the vanilla rom that was when the athena began to really take off. i'll see how quickly i can get a vanilla to everyone. maybe the speed will be satisfying then. though i bet one u reload the vanilla u will be only a bit faster than the platinum rom :p
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] dimisxxx:
I GO BACK........

I am sorry PAWEL.....but i have to go back to ap3 i was disappointed with the speed of the rom. The work that you have done off course is fantastic but the rom is slow ......very slow i was installing it without problems everything was working because i was following your info so i didn't had surprises and all the programs was working except the skype but i was using the frisp and thats ok.......but it was so SLOW that i had to go back.........:( I cant say nothing off course for your work was fantastic but from my experience because i have 5-6 htc phones all the 6.1 roms are problematic for now......atleast .....MAYBE IN THE FUTURE IT WILL BE FAST AND GOOD LIKE YOUR BEFORE ROMS.............THANK YOU ANYWAY.

This helped! I set the filter cache to 4 sectors (was disabled by default in AP4!) and set system cache size to 2MB. Glyph cache to 32kb and voila the device is much faster again! The lags when changing screen orientation and switching folders in fileexplorer or menus are really short with these settings. :)

Pawel can you add these settings to your AP4 update? I don't know which reg-settings schaps does change with his tool, but they seem to work. :)

Now i realized FTouchFlo messes up sliding when zoomed in Opera.

Do not install FTouchFlo when using Opera. :(

Seems opera launches a second app for the screen gestures so i don't know how to exclude opera from FtouchFlo.

UPDATE: TouchFLO like FTouchFLO best sensitivity

I set the TouchFLO Pressure threshold to 33280 (Dezimal) and added

HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings

FingerPressure Dword:2730 (Dezimal)

Now best response and scrolling with TouchFLO from AP4.0 and no mess up in opera9

Values 40000+ are too sensitive, if you press the screen a little harder then you will press a button, not good, so 33280 seems best. values under 30000 aren't sensitive enough. (with my touchscreen)
