Sorry about that Popamopps

I'm trully sorry, I tried reading through every single page of this thread but I guess I missed that. Your work is amazing and very appreciated.

As for the solutions offered, I tried them all earlier before I posted manually and with cabs and all, but no luck.

Oh well, giving up. But thanks all.This thread site could use a good thread-cleaner mod.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] wshader:
Noooooooo Papa, no quit cooking... my wing needs you!!! Take a look at the beginning of the thread and see the progress that has been made, see all the people with their kaisers and other devices waiting for this rom to be ported over... (which I tried to get the look of for a friend of mine and failed miserably). I may not be able to donate financially but I sure can donate my time to help people with basic knowledge if I know the answer (or google does).

However if there is a new release (RC6 perhaps?) maybe it should start a new thread... if you look at the first post it still shows the original with htc home and all the extension files for the theme that are no longer needed.

ItsPapaParadise is right around the corner. :D
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
you have to install network wizard... its in my sig under PLENTY OF CABS
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
NEVER HAD THOSE PROBLEMS WITH MMS - IT ALWAYS WORKED LIKE A CHARM AFTER INSTALLING NETWORK WIZARD... JUST SOFT RESET AFTER IT RUNS AND SETS UP YOUR CARRIER SETTINGS..
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
You deserve a lot of rest & relaxation!

Just don't go cracking the damn thing like you did your Herald :)

Thanks for your guidance earlier today. I know that if I wasn't in a travel-crunch timeframe where I absolutely needed my phone working, I would have been a much better student ...

I went back and re-read the 5 pages that precede the page with the release links. I know I am in the distinct minority here -- as a newbie who loves this site -- and the amazing output -- yet gets incredibly painful headaches from trying to assimilate stuff from 4-5 sources all at once: a wiki, about 3-4 newbie threads, HardSPL threads, the list is endless. :D

For "the regulars" at XDA, the nomenclature and abbreviations and tech terminology are all understood. Now me? I create information design and do user-experience/ usability consulting for "the mainstream" -- ie -- average joe and joanna who go into a T-mobile store in USA and buy a phone.

So I am a distinctly difference "audience" than the dominant readers of these XDA threads.

I'm also told everywhere I post "shut up and get to the point with your questions!" (NOT REALLY, just the concise equivalent of that!)... whereas the XDA culture is, rightfully so, "this isn't working and I followed, XYZ." Answer: "you forgot to do V,W,X - like I wrote 100 times in the thread!@$#%@ !" :D

FWIW, I still don't "get" some very "101" concepts. Maybe there is a video demo and I missed it. I will go through this thread again. I had the maestro guiding me, but can you believe he had to leave to go ride his motorbike??

So I am staring at this new interface with a big scrollable list of TO-DO items filling bulk of screen. Have no idea what to do. I'm told to activate Ultimate Launcher, which I know FROM READING 100 times that it's not freeware, so I get that. But i don't know how to activate a trial.

I will stop now before I get slammed for another long post. But i know I am too late for that. :eek:

Oh yes. The reason I could not tell that Touchflow was installed is because (1) I *like* to use my stylus for some things, even WITH touchflo, and it was not recognized. (How was I supposed to know?) (2) When I finally tried with my finger, I found the response so slow and unresponsive. Same with in Album. finger scrolling was slow as molasses. So I find a parameter somewhere to chnage sensitivity of Touchflo -- yet have no frame of reference of which direction to dial up or down the number...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
I have T-Mobile in USA -- and I could not figure out how to associate T-Mobile with my flashed phone. (sorry!) And all day long I get "your call cannot be completed" ...

I told papa I am going to, in near future, after I get my own urgent phone usage needs handled, record/edit a video that goes soup to nuts, every single detail from my T-Mobile WING to finding the right thread, to noting HardSPL requirements (but I won't call it that), to downloading, to showing how Rapidshare works, to how to arrange your files on PC prior to flashing, to video of entire process of first installing HardSPL, then all the subsequent moment-by-moment actions all the way til Papa's new Rom is installed.

Despite all the help in threads, and all the warnings, and all the "it's obvious if you just read the damn thing", I found about 10 key questions, steps during the flash process which to me were "undocumented" (in a relative sense -- as in, not in sight on that thread, and not easy to conjure up in mind of a newbie from reading 10 newbie threads over 2 weeks!) -- only because pros here have done these steps 1000 times, and so they understand all the nuances like when you connect the USB cable, and when not to, etc.

I'm not promising when, but I want to give back to this community, and I will do so with a video aimed ONLY AT NEWBIES.... and I will frame the whole operation much differently than in these accurate tech terminology terms used here. Once I stepped back hours after completeing the process, the whole process, at the macro level, was so much easier than I understood after drowning in easily 25 threads, cross-referencing HardSPL here with ROM there and RUU another place and bootloader another place etc. ... You never know! Such a video might get all us newbies off the backs of the great chefs here -- so you can focus on what you love -- and not the 10,000th walkthrough for someone like me :)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
The key is reading the newbies guide to flashing first!!!

everything else will fall into place... if you were having a issue with your calls not being completed, that sounds like a issue that is not related to the rom, probably the radio...

No one has ever had that issue in any of the rom flashing threads that i have been a part of.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
Okay, I hear ya... But I'd like to get a demographic profile

of all those who have flashed ROMS here at XDA ... I'm saying, right out the gate, I'm not the typical user here. That's fine. I know there's lots of USER ERROR on my part, and I fess up to it. But quite seriously, I've read at least 4 guides, and some people are visual processors, and no amount of text descriptions are going to imprint certain precepts inot the brain.

But I'm bowing out of this kind of discussion because it is not about a complaint I am making, but neither is it a deficiency in me... Hanggliding is a sport that is very easy... once you've done it a few times. But when you watch someone run off a mountain top and suddenly go airborne, it sorta looks easy, but the mind catalogues 100 obstacles (or fears) you wonder about, including something akin to bricking one's phone... and that would be bricking one's self down the mountain side. :)

I know this site is for enthusiasts and developers, and no way I am seeking to create a ruckus. I will just say this last thing: The first rule of usability design is... if any user makes an error, it matters not that said error was mentioned clearly on post #3 of a 153-post thread, and ALSO on post 1 of that thread "everyone knows about" from 6 months ago that's in the sig-file links of all the regulars...

I fully understand: *I* am the aberration. I don't mind that status, because I know I did all the homework -- unlike the "hey, show me how to do this, I gotta run in a minute and just tell me which files" users. In fact I think I should get a trophy in my name as "Least Likely To Understand Directions Even When Explained 10 times" :D :p

Now... dare I ask: how DO I get my phone to sync up to T-Mobile? have a good weekend all -- and seriously thanks to all who helped me.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
if you have AIM( instant messenger )use it... this is too much text on here to answer this question....

TRY THIS Before flashing any ROMs in the future :

1. Download any cabs files that you feel you will install to your device ( ex. network connection, connection wizard, nocabdelete, schaps config tool, etc )

2. put all your cabs that you feel you will use on your storage card.

3. check to make sure that you are using a tmo compatable radio - 3.18.90 or 3.21.xx

4. after you flash your rom, runthe network connectins or network wizard immediately ( if it hasnt been installed - make sure you install nocabdelete or run schaps tool so that cab files are not deleted after install ).

5. when network wizard finishes do a soft reset ( it will tell you to do so anyway ).

6. make sure you are in area in which signal strength is strong.

7. sometimes you have to reflash the ROM to fix some errors, that is if you did everything correctly. No one else in this thread or that I have seen has had that problem so it must be user error not the cooks error...

if you have further questions regarding the matter IM me on AOL

------------

the video wont work cause each rom that you flash will be different...

this is the easiest rom by far to config and set up, just follow the instructions...

and also is your device hardspl ????

-----------

edit 2

also after installing network wizard - go to settings, connections, network wizard... click it and then choose United States - then Tmobile as the carrier, then okay --- it will say configuring device to tmobile settings... let it finish and then it will say its time to reboot when finish, click yes for reboot and thats it... as long as you get good reception wherever you are it will work....
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
You could have told them that i chat 1 hour along with you before going to clean my bike before rain starts!!!!

Don´t mess up things.

And by the way....IF YOU do not know how to activate a trial...stop using APPS!!

And stop yelling at the way people post information.....

1st cook your own rom

2nd release it

3rd start helping people

and then you get known to what we are doing here!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
I won´t stop....but i´m really tired and pissed offf by some users....

BUT there will be RC6 with enwer build some day.... but when i see that 5.3 has some memory leak for some people I NEVER HAVE and i really didn´t change anything on the baserom...i run out of ideas how to make RC6 perfect...if i cannot get RC5 running correct :D

cause i cannot just include todayrefresh into RC5 - i do NOT have it anymore as kitchen :( i only have RC5.3 cause it never made trouble for me :D

Sorry

we will see what follows...

BTW...I start teaching at a new school in August...and there i will have to work more cause all is new for me...so i think it will take time before a new rom comes out...

and I do NOT know wat else i could change graphicly :D haha
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
dont worry pappa we got your back in here... enjoy the bike and wear ya helmet...

I told him how to flash the right way, cant help it if it was user error...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
Wow. Sorry. I was KIDDING about the motobike thing! I am sorry that didn't come through.

I apologize. I don't know what to say. Yes, yes indeed you spent an hour or MORE on chat with me. And very patiently helped me and explained what I would see next and very much hand-holding. I have been completely appreciative, and I am just sorry it seems different from my posts.

I wasn't complaining about your ROM or instructions. I was trying (but failed at it) to just note that some people (okay, maybe just me) have prepped and still can't hold it all in head insequence. Even with printouts, which I had.

The last thing i wanted to do was piss you off. So, apologies again. I support XDA community, and i donate to show that.

i hope you can see where I was joking about motobike. these things do not come across well in text, even with smiley. ok, good night. :)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
Ok let´s forget about it.....

maybe i was in not good mod...and i accept your apologize...

Let´s start new :D

But as a hint: never write tooo much in a post....people overread things maybe ;)

If you need help...you know where to find me.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
okay, thank you ! (shakes hands):)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
Oooh, is that so Daniel...

I didn't know that at all:p

PS: if you are still in Spain, the Medion Mini is also sold there too in the MediaMarkt
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
I might be on to something regarding the Leak. Ive been running RC5.3 since about 5am this morning and so far i think i figured it out. i noticed a dip in memory that didnt rebound much from the today agenda portion of UL reloading after timeout. I went to UL settings - agenda - change - then set it to load on startup then ok. it appears that it worked to resolve the memory issues cause if the agenda has to load up since it was timing out and UL was going back to home tab ( agenda ) after 1 or 2 minutes ( I also changed the return to home tab in X minutes to off ), that could be what was causing the issue. So far the Leak has been plugged ( the agenda timeout didnt happen in rc5 ). It wasnt voice command making it drop low nor the sliding refresh. I will keep RC5.3 for a few more days before testing the newer builds roms that ttran released and ivan released.

Also for the media player plug in, you can try spbToplay.. it works and there are different options for icons. and it doesnt kill alot of memory either. Check my blog for pics.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] quicksite:
...speaking of GPS: pureskillz, it works just fine on WING

My WING is prob just 4-5 months old and when I run Google Maps, it's menu has an option for "Use GPS" ... I have used it many times, and it works beautifully. But I have not tested it yet since stock T-mobile ROM.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
Good job on that research robpet.

Although I never had a problem with memory leaks on papa's ROMs

it's good that you came behind that issue.

BTW I will test SpbToplay right now. I guess it's freeware?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
yep its freeware.. just update your library in windows media player
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
Okay, it works now.

Installed it to SDcard first which blocked my Herald continously,

but after reinstalling it to the device it works fine.

Just the buttons are way to tiny, so I guess it won't be much help for me,

but thanks anyway.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
I WILL redesinge the buttons ;) - hopefully!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
AGENDA Timeout???? haha...never knew i have something like that. But we have to go through it....

we will se....

I´m currently not running RC5.3 BUT RC5.3 papa-private :D but i will flash back to RC5.3 and get the leak KILLED!

ITsPapaBlackMurder!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
I didn't had the leak problem in either version, but I will stick with the private version until your next release.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
click and hold on the spbtoplay plugin and it gives you a small menu to make icons bigger and also change the style... check my blog for pics of the large icons and the different styles..
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
OR take this icons ;)

ITsPapaSPB2Play

​

Still needs some modding....like the pause-button
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
Thanks, figured that out by accident.

Funny when you feel like a noob once in a while:o

That looks good, now you need to update iContacts and you got enough stuff for a new updated ROM;)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
Update iContact...i guess i missed something...haha

I will check :D
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] PURESKILLZZZ:
Hey papa ... Are you enjoying your bike ????
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
Y E S ! ! !

But it is raining here in germany. Next days gonne be better...and i´m off for a short travel :D
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] PURESKILLZZZ:
It rained here quiet a few days this summer and we rode in the rain ....
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ichigoismyhomie:
hey papamob,

I like this ROM but I noticed something missing. Every time I got a missed call or received SMS, the amber-colored indicator light doesn't blink anymore on your ROM.

is there a quick way to activate that blinker light because I keep missing the missed call because the indicator stays green.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
Go to Settings/Sounds & notifications, check if "Notifications" has a tick

Go to the Notifications tab and check the pull-down menu for "Phone: Incoming Call" if the option is activated.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ichigoismyhomie:
wow...thank you for the quick answer. this forum ROCKS
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ichigoismyhomie:
wow.....thank you for the quick reply. this forum ROCKS.......oops. sorry for the double post.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
No problem, you are welcome!
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] PURESKILLZZZ:
Hey my dear friend ... Where have you been ????
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] speoples20:
Hey Papa I enjoyed using your rom but I was trying to find the alt tab program that you use. I found something similar but not as good as the one you have in your rom. If you could please tell me were you got it or post it for me. Thank you very much.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
Jjust copy the AltTab.exe from the windows folder and save it on your SDcard or do you need something else?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
Have been busy with my studies and since Daniel went for holiday I thought it would be a good time for me to take a time out too and focus on my exams, but here I am again ;)
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
????ßWhy....

just go to start-settings-buttons and CHOOSE it....lol
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kelvino9:
Because I didn't really understood what he wanted.

Not sure if he wanted to use AltTab in a different ROM or just couldn't find it to use in yours.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
damn why are you studying so MUCH...never online!!!

hehe
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] speoples20:
I wanted to use it on a different rom. Sorry I wasnt real clear about that.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] ichigoismyhomie:
hey papamopp,

is there a way to assign iContact to a button? I tried to look for it in button assignment program list, but iContact wasn't in there. I ended up using pocketCM assigned to one of the side button.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
you would need to use total commander and copy the shortcut for the .lnk file which is located in the windows folder on the device and then paste it in the programs folder within the windows/start menu / programs folder. then icontacts will show in the buttons menu
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
iCOntact IS on RIGHT softkeybutton!!!!

if that doesn´t help you follow robs explain...
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
i only put the instructions up there so he could change it back being that he already installed pocketcm ( my favorite - lol... but im gonna give icontact another shot )
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
I know...but sometimes i think my rom has toooo much hidden features... :D
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
lol..

and on a side note, if i could cut down to just having to install 2 programs i would have 27mb of program memory.. im still sortin out the Bullsh!t programs that i really dont use, and can go without..
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] papamopps:
AS papa allways said....this rom contains ALL you really need :D

ok i NEVER used:

- iContact

- Advanced Config

- MMS

- Office (use textmaker)

- mmmmhh

BUT i cannot strip it more down...cause i cannot go under 51MB :D
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
I might try and see if i can function without installing anything next time i flash..
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] bubonik:
Papa could you provide the HTC Home theme you created?

Why is it that when I edit the default.xml for BS that the todaytoggle auto function disables. I remove everything but the top bar seeing as how I dont need those functions. And there is nothing that is blatant as to what runs todaytoggle after keyboard movement.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] oltzer:
Question regarding this rom

Hey, im somewhat new to the cooked roms, however i followed the instructions throughout the forum and i put this ITsPapaBlackDiamond_19949.1.2.0 rom on my wing, and everything went through smoothly, however i've noticed my wing locking up alot so i was curious if this is a known issue, if others are having this problem and if so, is their a way to solve the problem. If anyone has any idea, id appreciate it.

Thanks
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] neonstorm:
I'm having the same issue... SMS and MMS seem totally inaccessible. If going to device info, the ROM version does read as 4.17.405.2 WWE.

Is anyone else running in to this or have a fix?

Thanks!

Ryan
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
did you install and run network wizard and set up the network settings for your carrier.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kazzx:
the first time i installed this rom, the text messaging option was just not there at all. i reinstalled it and it was back to normal.

i dont know what caused it, or if its the same problem, but if all else fails, reinstall it :P
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
oh yeah what do you mean inaccessible???

do you mean you cant find it in the menu?

or you cannot send or receive messages?
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
papa removed the shortcuts from the rom because you can access messages from the BS plugin on the today screen. Once again if you need to make a shortcut for any programs that included in the rom, use total commander and make a shortcut to make a link / shortcut.. I posted directions in a previous post.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] Kazzx:
its not that, its that in the messaging screen, the only option was for email, no text messages, no mms.

it wasnt removed, it was some sort of glitch that fixed itself when i reflashed.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] robpet2:
oh never had that problem.. i think you and one other person had that problem out of probably hundreds.. but sometimes reflashing can sometimes fix stuff that doesnt happen to everyone.
[Wing, P4350 ROM development] neonstorm:
That's it exactly. I reflashed and all is well.

Thanks guys...
