Hi there CRC!

thanks for the latest update 13.5, flashed it to my device about 2 weeks ago - been working like a gem - as always.

I have only a small annoying issue, regarding my outlook/exchange email account - if I am right, in your previous rom (13.3) I was using - there used to be a time gap for when to pull mails. But I haven't seen it anywhere in the latest rom (13.5).

The problem it's causing me is that it is now syncing with my exchange server almost instantly now ( which is ok! ) but on the other side, draining my battery like never before!

Is there a way around this? Thanks :)

very low sound

Hi! First of all i like this ROM, but im having problem with sound. Its very VERY i mean crazy low, i cant listen to music. I have to soft-reset the device every time i want to listen some music. Can anyone help me? Does anyone have the same issue? I would realy like to stay with this rom, because its realy fast!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Silly question, have you checked the volume settings? Does it happen on other ROMs? If so, it may well be a hardware issue.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] badyto:
silly question indeed :) yes of course i doublechecked my system volume music-application volume and SRS WOHD settings and everything seems to be ok. And no i dont have this problem on other roms. and as for now i am still unable to tell when exactly does this "selective mutism" occur. :( any ideas what should i try?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Remove SRS WOW HD. It's known for causing issues with volume etc.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] badyto:
But if i remove the SRS WOW HD, the sound sounds very bad :( Is there any working substitute for SRS WOW HD? I never had problem with it in other roms, seems like i will have to choose a different rom :( Any tips for a high memory wm 6.1 rom? Thanx

Edit: Ok i switched to Pays_WWE_305_Final_Lite and everything is OK now. (31 MB free ram on fresh start with startmenu). It seems perfect :-)

Awesome rom! Windows live issue

feedback

I think is ROM is amazing and nippy :)

You can pick what you do or don't want.

Quick to install. Quick to load. No extra bloat!

My phone feels like it has a new lease of life.
​

I have found a small issue if anyone can help. - SOLVED

Running 13.5 naked big storage.

If I install windows live messenger via the update OR via my storage card - doesn't seem to want to connect using my data plan.

Used the HTC connection wizard to set my data connection.

(T-mobile UK user currently).

Any ideas?​

solved by removing the proxy server that it automatically added.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Final-Fantasy:
This ROM is great and I like it very much. Thanks for your good job.

But I am using the Naked rom and I need the camera too, Would you offer the camera driver separately with cab format?

Thanks a lot!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Install the camera support from Device Update.

Hey! :)

I think your ROMs are awesome! Love stripped ROMs :)

But i have a problem, i usually don't have anything in my startmenu except Today, Programs, and settings but i would like to place my S2U2 shortcut there as well.

But whenever i place any other shortcut in the startmenu (except the three mentioned above) the start menu locks up and i'm not able to access the programs och settings folders :S

Do you have a solution, or is this a common problem?

Thanks in advanced, LaZi3b0y!

EDIT: I'm using the HTC Startmenu enlarger, if that makes any difference. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] psycho84:
Hi CRC, I've just recently decided to return from wm 6.5 to wm 6.1 and decided to use your

13.5 rom because it's so praised (and I can tell why, it's blazing fast!!). I had only one

problem with it which i think had something to do with that extension for file explorer that is

available through your device update...I had my phone frozen 3 times in one day in file

explorer when i had that thing...I un-installed it and i think everything is working fine now.

I use SPB mobile shell with your rom and many programs I need and after a day of working

my phone still has around 12-13MB left (and i used stuff like morphgear and so), which is

pretty better than any 6.5 rom i tried (they all drop down to something like 7 MB). The

reason I am writing here is to ask you if you can recommend (maybe give links) some

cabs that can improve wm 6.1 to be more finger-friendly. I've already installed

Fingersuite for larger menus and it's working fine, i would also like to make as much things

as i can finger - friendly. Maybe if you know is there some cab that provides finger

scrolling or something similar.

Thanks in advance for your answer!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] LaZi3b0y:
Hey, i'm not CRC but i might be able to help out. :P

For fingerscrolling you can use FTouchSL, it cost money but there is a free fingerscrolling software with almost the same name from the same creator. :) Can't remeber the name through but think its available in Device Update. And then there is also the HTC Menu Enlarger thats also available in Device Update, gives you a more finger friendly start menu :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] psycho84:
Thanks for your answer!!Well i use HTC Menu Enlarger too i just forgot to

mention it...And i tried to use FtouchSL's younger brother FtouchFlo but it's no

use for me, because with it SPB shell doesn't work like it should, neither the

s2u2 (even if i put them in exception list!!)...I don't like FtouchFlo because of

its gestures capabilities...If there weren't those or if it's possible to disable it I

think i might use it...This way its just unusable for me (i swipe right to unlock my

phone when s2u2 is on screen but it doesn't unlock instead it opens some

application, wtf!).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boog:
You can edit the program (for gestures) out of the config file, programs>FTouchFLO>ftouchfloconfig.txt

copy it to your desktop and edit with notepad, then copy it back.

example:

iLock2.exe is for s2u2

Just upgraded by Dopod 838Pro to your CRC ROM. 1st impressions are positive so far.

However, the threaded SMS'es only have a time stamp, not a date stamp. Is there a way to make it have both the time and date stamp in the threaded SMS view? I don't want to disable threaded SMS'es because that was the reason why I wanted to go for 6.1.

CRCinAU:

CONGRATS on the CPL! i thought all aussies were born w/a pilot's license along w/their birth certificate. you need planes to get around in that huge country. a few questions.

1. can we assume that 13.5 is effectively the "final CRC ROM" for HTC Hermes? i know you've stated in the past that winmo 6.5 won't run efficiently on Hermes. i read your blog and the last updates about winmo and your device updates was mid 2009.

2. you mentioned in 2010 blog that you are going to upgrade to a TouchPro2, has that happened? if so, do you plan to develop wm 6.5+ (now renamed Windows Phone "classic") for it?

3. how long will device updates be online for? (good for people like me weighing when to upgrade)

4. any thoughts on Windows Phone 7 Series? will you be getting one?

imho there is really no more you can do w/this Hermes ROM, i think you're the one that has fully squeezed every last bit out of this already.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Woah - settle - I don't quite have it yet! :)

Quite possibly. This ROM has been tested and tested and tested and there are no real detectable problems to fix. This makes it unlikely that there will be another release.

I still aim to get a TP2. Lack of funds has caused me to put this on hold as I just can't afford one. The average of $10AUD per month I get from all my XDA activities doesn't add up quick enough to look at getting a TP2 before they become obsolete ;)

For the foreseeable future. DU works on many, many phones - not just the Hermes!

We'll have to see what the future holds. The plans are VERY liquid at the moment - and they will probably change many times before a product actually ships.

That's my thoughts too.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kb3kyx:
Question of compatability

i know this might be i the wrong section but im hoping someone can help ...I see alot of everyone here is using HTC devices ...so I'm thinking my next device will be one of the HTC branding... well im not all that new to the whole PDA thing but i am very new to the smart phone realm and i have recently acquired a SCH-i730 samsung phone from a friend of mine and i have already flashed it from the WM2003 it came with to WM5 and was curious to know if i would be able to go to WM 6 Or maybe WM6.1 . i understand about the whole possibility of bricking your device so i am not too worried there but i hope it is possible and by the looks of what you have done here in your release it looks pretty darn amazing so congratz on your fine work....... and thank you for answering my Question about the upgrade

Thanks in advance

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JonesL:
I installed the naked rom however the comm manager states its not signed and therefore refuses to work any ideas? :confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] i_no:
Hi CRC,

I tried your actual ROM for about 3 weeks and recognized now the problem that the phone does not ring if a call is incoming. Music etc. works. Additionally it is not possible to change the ringtone. If pressing OK it changes to windows-default ring and the window does not disappear. A soft-reset does not help.

Thanks for your work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] andrewbat:
Can some one explain....

Can anyone explain the difference betwee:

Normal - Naked - Naked Big Storage

I have NO idea...sorry :-)

I am currently also using a:

HTC Hermes (Dopod 838pro

CRCs 13.3 Rom

1.56.70.11 radio

Has been hard spl'd

Working a treat and debating to upgrade to CRCs 13.5 rom.

Thoughts on that as well

Are the download links for 13.5 (all versions) going excruciatingly slow for anyone else? I'm talking bytes per second. I've tried different browsers, rebooting my pc, even resetting my router/modem. Still slow. At this rate I'll have it by monday if I'm lucky.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sexy_may_may:
I didn't have any problems when I tried this version of your ROM! Nice one, keep up the good work. :D

s.m.m
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tonyc0642:
Edit: The download links seem to be working fine now.

Excellent ROM so far. I finally decided to fore go all the flash of 6.5 in favor of simplicity and stability, and 13.5 is it. Thanks for all the hard work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JediFonger:
tony, test out the device update =P. that thing is amazing. it's basically what MS has been doing and promoting for their own WP7S but NOW instead of later =P. not even now, it's been out for a long while =P
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tonyc0642:
I used it to install all kind of goodies:D To get it to work I had to check the main box for each type of program(applications, contact management, games, etc.), then de-select the programs I didn't want. It would be cool if m2d was added at some point.

@CRC, the buttons are not correctly mapped for at&t USA. The letters/numbers are right, but the punctuation is wrong. Is there any fix for this?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Yep - install Shaps Advanced Config and change the keyboard layout.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] tonyc0642:
Omg I'm such a tard. Didn't even know I could do that with advanced config. Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JediFonger:
1. oh man... how much longer for the CPL? it sounded like you got it already from your blog.

2. your 13.3 was already so good. when i have time i'll goto 13.5.

3. re: TP2... i assume you've seen WP7S? i think you should develop for that. CRC WP7S would be l337 :D

4. while DU is good, think of the real income that can be had from WM store. haven't you heard of iPhone devs that earn side or full incomes from just custom apps?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
I passed my PPL flight test today - so now its onto training for the CPL.

Yeah - theres a couple of bug fixes in there. No major major changes though.

I can't say I have. I'll have to look it up.

I would love to offer this for DU - but handling payments are a *****. For every $5AUD donation I get, Paypal takes 10%. Which means its very impractical for small payments as you end up giving it all to paypal.

I am working on a few things for this, but they are on the back burner at the moment.

Funny you should say that - my girlfriend and I had the same idea - so a TP2 is on its way to me as we speak.

Hmmmm - not sure if I like the WM7 idea after watching that. Seems to want to do too much stuff in the OS. I think I'll be sticking to WM6.x for quite a while :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zephxiii:
Does 13.5 have the gain boost adjustment for earpiece in phone calls? Because I really really hate that mod. I'm looking for a solid stable 6.1 ROM that doesn't have that.

EDIT: looks like it is fine.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Tabbe:

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

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mati55664:
Never? Why?:(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
This thread has my reasons - but basically the Hermes is outdated for running WM6.5. Its slow, needs more RAM and after seeing WM6.5 on a touch pro 2 you realise that the Hermes just doesnt cut it as far as user experience goes.

Oh, and just for bragging rights, R13.5 on a Hermes boots faster than the stock WM6.5 ROMS on the Touch Pro 2. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JediFonger:
i concur. i went from 13.2->13.5 naked big storage and it's AWESOME!!!! everything is also very rapid too! =)

THANK YOU CRCAU! your rom continues to breathe NEW LIFE into an OLD DEVICE =).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] diegolaz:
yes, I've been runnung 6.5 for months now (different versions) and it was always slow and running out of mem. 2 days with this rom and it runs faaaast, even with SPB home, which runs great.

On thing, how do you disconnect from 3g? top icon doesn't bring the disconnect option.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
Either:

1) From the home screen hold the hangup button for 4 seconds; or

2) From the comm manager.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wrsg:
does this mean there will be no more rom updates for hermes from yourself?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CRCinAU:
There may be minor updates if issues are found or newer software that doesn't degrade the performance of the Hermes is released or available, but there will probably be no major changes to the OS/SYS version.

I'm currently having problems with my MMS. I can receive and send them, but I can only receive if my data connection is active. So if my data connection is off, I won't receive the MMS at all. Shouldn't the data connection turn on just so I can receive the MMS? But it stays off and I never receive it, even when I turn the data connection on. But if I ask someone to send it to me when it is active, I have no problem receiving the MMS. So what's the deal? I'm currently using MMS ArcSoft 4.

CRC - just a quick note to say thanks for all the work you've done for the Hermes! I got a HD2 last month so obviously moved on myself, but really enjoyed your ROM while I was using the device. Went through x many Hermes 'til I said enough was enough and upgraded ;)

My gf still uses has Hermes as her main phone and I have of course flashed it with your super stable and fast rom which works wonders.

As far as roms go, I tested many on the Hermes and I can say without a doubt that yours is THE one to have on a day to day basis.

Respect!

Edit: And I can't tell you how useful your radio repository was, great work!

Good to hear. I got a TP2 myself. I just couldn't move away from the hardware keyboard. Sadly, the USB connector has gone faulty in it - so it's off at HTC getting some TLC. At the moment I'm stuck on an ancient Nokia 6020 - no 3G, no bluetooth, no email, no calendar - nothing. God I hate it!

Yeah - I posted in the DeviceUpdate thread - but I forgot to post in here... The main server was powered down when an ex-admin shutdown the wrong server after a migration to a new server. Sadly, without paying $300AUD for out of hours access to the data centre, it has to wait until someone is there within business hours to turn the damn thing on.

Normal service will resume within a few hours...
