ROM is very nice! Though it's not the snappiest ROM it sure feels stable. Even after installing all my apps.

Will try this one out for a while. Although I was searching for a real light ROM. 'Cause I don't use Manila etc. Been flashing my device for the 8th time this weekend already. Should take a brake and make up my mind *LOL*
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Cheers mate, glad you like it! Actually if you check out the recent benchmarks http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=406640 it´s actually the one of the fastest out there apart from swtos ROMs :D

Maybe I´ll release a stripped version of this ROM as well just to follow trends and if there´s enough demand.....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Full version now posted on the first post....... enjoy ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandtang:
Need to trouble you for a mirror for full version... rapidshare hates me or my adsl connection..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Corian:
Mirror for full coming soon.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Cheers mate ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Corian:
You have a PM..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
It hasn´t arrived ??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Mirror for full up now.... thanks to Corian for that ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandtang:
Thanks very much guys. Downloading now...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] seatone:
hi christonge,

using your lite rom, I like it more and more, it's fast and stable, thank you for it.

I miss only one app the end key application (HTC Long press key). I've found two versions here in the forum, but they don't work with your rom. Can you give me, please, a link with a working endkey cab file? Thanx

/seatone
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
I will try to post you a cab tomorrow... Chris ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] micy320:
when i unzip the file after, i cannot open the DiamonCustomRUU exe file.

Pls help me.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Are you using winrar??? Don´t think anyone else has had this problem. Download it again and repeat perhaps it wasn´t downloaded correctly :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] keerttttt:
Can't someone make a cab file of the audiomanager that's included in this rom? i would love to have that one on my diamond with original rom!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] seatone:
Thumbs UP! Reccommended!

I'm using the CT v5 light for a couple of days, and I need to say that this is the best cooked ROM I've ever tried! And, believe me, I've tried almost all of them! It's fast, stable and with a lot of free program memory after hours of running.

Just an example: when I use a specific really memory hog navigation software, this ROM has between 13-16 megs of free memory in comparison with all the others I've tried, that have 4-max 10 megs of free memory!

I think this example is quite justificatory.

In all those days I've used the GSM, GPS, BT, WiFi, Internet, Mails...so on, so all the commonly used appz and no problem!

So, THANK YOU Christonge for this excellent work!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Very kind words my friend... ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandtang:
ok installed v5 full and used for 3 days.

noticed opera is now able to activate rotation more quickly 8D

strange thing... HTC music player now lists quite a few ring and alert tones to be played. I'm not sure where these files are located cos I only see WindowsMobile tone when I choose phone ringtone. This didnt happen for v4 full or original roms. Quite odd.

Edit: my mistake for leaving ringtones in an internal storage and forgotten it was there.

Everything's great so far... nicely done again CT
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Umm that is strange... it doesn´t happen for me?? I haven´t changed anything or the folder location of these files and the same sound files are present always in my ROMs. If it´s really bothering you try a HR and maybe that will get rid of it.

Glad you´re enjoying the ROM... just like me ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Plokhish123:
Dear Christonge,

When will you get chance to upload the correct Long End Key-cab file (which is needed for Light Version) ? Thank you.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandtang:
Oh man.. I looked everywhere and found an old ringtones folder in internal storage.. I put them there and forgot about them for weeks.... I beg for your forgiveness :o.. my phone's all perfect again!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
No worries :D

Funny cos the same thing happened to me the other day I sometimes flash back to an original ROM and yesterday (while I was playing with a new super stripped ROM) I discovered a whole load of pictures in the TFL3D tab... and I spent ages looking in the kitchen because I thought I´d left them there, but like you I found them in the internal storage :o
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] seatone:
GPS lag dissapeared

Hi there,

just a strange think: when I've installed this ROM there was a GPS lag with the navigation software.

Now using it for a longer period, strange, but the GPS lag just disappeared....

Now I don't have any lag with my favorite navi soft :)

It's amazing, I haven't installed anything, nor deleted anything...

Strange, but I like it :)))
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ibrahim786:
hello, file needed please.

hi, i would like to know if there is a possibility that you can just get this file :

HTC USBtoPC 2.1.1817 (NEW-with Internet Sharing):D

which is in the new update of the diamond firmware.

thanks, ibrahim.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
have been using this rom since the start becos its the best...

thumbs up for the hard work!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
It's taken from the Raphael ROM. I can upload just the OEM package if you can't find it. Let me know ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Cheers mate!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] nhelliwell:
Hi Christonge, have just installed your rom and have to say I'm very impressed, massive improvement in speed. Just one question though, on my previous network rom, when I long pressed the send key it gave me the option to speak a voice tag, this appears to have gone, including the ability to add voice tags to contacts, do I have to install something to get this back?

Cheers.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
It´s been removed from these ROMs... to tell you the truth I never use it :rolleyes:

But anyway here is the CVSD file kindly provided by swtos. Install and then soft reset to complete ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] nhelliwell:
perfect, and thanks for the quick response! one more question, and this may be a bit off topic as not sure what settings are defined with a new rom, but when installing it it asks for the network to configure the rom for, should this setup the voice mail and text settings? the voicemail number is blank in my network settings so pressing 1 on the speed dial won't dial the voicemail, it just asks for a number (which doesn't do anything when I enter the number from vodafone). Is there anywhere I can specify this? text centre settings work fine.

cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Not sure about that as I never use voice mail either SORRY :o

Your best bet is try google search XDA here http://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:http://xdaforums.com&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] nhelliwell:
:), yep, have tried that. just get a network error when I try to update the number manually, nevermind not too hard to type 121 instead... Do you actually use your phone as a phone at all ;)

later.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Just a bit in between flashing..... but I just type in the names on the dialpad or use the People tab in TFL3D for my favorites :p
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
any updates to this rom?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Hi,

I don't have much time to cook at the moment as I'm moving around a lot for work. I will back to it in 2 weeks time. I've been using this build with the newest 20753 kernal and it's been working very well so I'll probably release it when I get back, that is if there's nothing new out ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sandtang:
Have been using v5 full for some time now and no issues until few days ago realised the alarm activates with notification but no sound.. checked that notifications settings is correct.. I wonder if it's rom related. Anyone else had this problem?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
erms... any updates to this great rom???

btw, i found out my hanging issue... it was becos of the radio... downgraded it back to a normal diamond radio instead of an experimental one and my phone has never hung since then...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Hi mate,

I am really busy with work and cooking is on hold just now until I have more time. I really miss it but I´ll be back next month..... and even perhaps with a HD ;)

Thanks a lot for your support.

Chris
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] del4:
I've been unable to find HTC USBtoPC 2.1.1817 also. My Sprint Touch Pro doesn't include the Internet Sharing option on this screen for some reason...

Edit: Found v2.0.18172128.1 here, but haven't yet come across 2.

1

.1817...

I'm also trying to find the Calculator skin, as the Calculator on my Touch Pro looks like the same old (i.e., ugly) one...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Just like the previous question regarding the TouchFlo3D, I think Teeter is what makes this device so to remove it would be a crime :p
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ceevee369:
EDIT - did not saw previous posts -

When the full Rom is uploaded (hope you can keep your eyes open) I will give it a try.

The memory leak "cork" or other salvation is teasing me a LOT. (as the official build does still has the leak as far as I know)

?? 32 Mb pagepool you said, so that might be "hiding" the leak ...?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
There´s still memory leak there but no worse than any other build I´ve used for cooking and certainly hasn´t effect it´s preformance for me so far....As for the pagepool I haven´t changed it at all in this build.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ceevee369:
Oh, seems I am not well awake yet. Enough written - will wait for your full release and reply bug's later today (if any ;))
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
OK, cheers mate. I´ll upload the full in the morning. Ta
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ariel0103:
hi I will be trying this out later, but would just like to know if the Touch Flo 3D version in this ROM has the original animations?

Thanks....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mujja:
Flashing the lite ROM now.

ariel0103, I think the TF3D animations are disabled in all 1.93 official and custom roms.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
The newer version of Manila have the usual animations on each tab but reduced animations between tabs... but it´s a vast improvement in speed and stability and as much as I liked the first version this is way more practical without loosing too much wow factor!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mujja:
After flash :

Storage

Total 126.66 MB

In Use 13.38 MB

Free 113.28 MB

Program

Total 111.02 MB

In Use 61.97 MB

Free 49.05 MB

:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] farzadus:
i prefer the WOW factor :p pls dont remove windows Live from the lite or the full...i know its available for download but its jus 1 thing whcich i feel completes a windows fone ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
yes pls remove the tf3d...

i've always been looking for a light version of the default rom... ppl always create roms with programs that i don't use and it becomes an eye sore to have such programs on my mobile...

i think that the best rom is one with only essential updates with everything else removed... therefore this rom is much better than any other rom available becos it allows you to customise your own rom...

since it is already bare minimum, you only add what you really want
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Mujja:
Installed around 5 regular apps plus Diamond Tweak, Diamond TF3D Config and Nadavi Call History and so far this ROM is as stable and quick as the HK Asian ROM but with a LOT more free storage RAM.

Slight bug, in the Programs menu the icon for Help is still there but the files have been removed. There may be others. I'll click through all icons tonight and report back.

Otherwise a fantastic ROM and just what I needed.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] panosha:
OK boys, each one has different opinion for this. I like this way and you know it. Hey, christonge wake up, my best greetings in Madrid.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
my opinion is to remove EVERYTHING and let us have the choice to customise...

what is removed can be added back... but what is cooked into the rom cannot be removed via uninstall...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
btw, TS pls put the .cab installers for the stuff you've removed...

it'd help us greatly...

trying this rom now... hopefully its stable as an original but without all the cluster of useless programs!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Yeah perhaps in the near future I´ll get around to doing something like Alex has on the Kaiser forum which is a stripped down basic ROM and all the OEM packages so people can cook in what they want. But that will have to wait until I have my hols the week after next ;)

In the meantime.........
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
I'll get round to that ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Good morning!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lolek74:
Please keep rom to absolute minimum. Everything else can be cab installed. It will be great if all removed stuff was avaiable for separate download.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] liamhere:
hope you got a good sleep

morning from the u.k

@ work till 12.....will flash then

chris...have havn't any adverts in this rom?

last rom was full of them..... they make a rom look cheap and childish IMO

many thanks and have a great weekend!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Morning... adverts really? I never noticed them... perhaps they were part of the operator package but you´ll find this fairly clean.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] liamhere:
not the phone companys

the cooks who do the roms

they like to stick there names all over the rom

splash screens....you name it they will try to put there name on it

many thanks for your work and have a good weekend!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ceevee369:
Good mornig (again) today !

5 PM in Taipei and looking forward for the Full Rom posting later on if you would find the time for it ?

Though I am awake for 12 hours already, I wanna know what the 1.93.83xx is about in your cooked Rom. If it is bug-free, again, other cooks might as well use yours as base maybe?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Arrrrrr OK.... I´m still waking up and the coffee still hasn´t finished brewing :p

No there´s nothing like that cooked in, just the basics. I´m not a big fan of that stuff either :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] liamhere:
great, not long till i get home and play with your rom :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] farzadus:
i cant wait to flash it on mine tooooooooo :p
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Full will be up shortly and an update to the Light as well because I´ve now removed the Help icon from programs screen ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Chocolicious:
How do you view the different CAB files in each ROM, is it using the kitchen?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Full ROM link now on first post... enjoy
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Which cab files are you looking for??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] liamhere:
im home

flashing now :)

many thanks again and i have all day to play :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Huey85:
awww man I only just flashed my Diamond with the Official HK 1.93.x.x WWE ROM this morning. Oh well, gonna give this baby a go ;) Will get back to you with any issues/bugs I may find.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Uploading Beta 2 for the light version if you want to wait 15 mins...;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Chocolicious:
All of them, I just want to be able to cook my own and I cannot seem to get the Kitchen to extract properly so was seeing if there was another way.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
No, to cook a ROM you need to use the Kitchen... it takes a while to get to grips with it but if you keep trying and reading you´ll get there ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] liamhere:
hi chris...flashed and all is fine :)

just added what i needed...this is how a rom should be :p

what changes have been made to beta 2????
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Nothing much just cleaned up a few more picture files and removed the Help Icon from the program menus. But you can remove the Help Icon yourself if it´s annoying using File Explorer in Windows/Start Menu/Programs and delete the help icon. I just forgot so now it´s sorted in Beta2....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ComPas-V:
Still uploading?

:)

That's the way the lite ROM should be.

The "base" ROM.

Thanks...

(waiting for beta 2)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Yep still uploading because for some reason only going up at 12kps :o
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
overall, great rom!

unlike my previous which hung like 2x per day, this has yet to hang on me all day despite some serious internet surfing...

everything is removed which is good... i've added back some stuff like ms live, opera... but the trouble of adding these back beats having to see really irritating and useless programs like help and other programs that other cooks simply love to put in

overall i'm extremely pleased to have used this rom and the only reason i'll flash to another rom would be either:

- a new rom base comes out

- christonge creates a new rom with TF3d removed

other than that... 5 stars for this rom!!!

if all the other cooks had made this in the first place, nobody else would need to build another cooked rom :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Cheers mate... as I said in an earlier post I would like to eventually do something like the guys did on the Kaiser thread and post a kitchen with a really stripped base ROM and everything there in OEMs packages so people can cook there own custom ROM, but it will have wait until my hols.

If I have some spare time tomorrow I will try to produce a Lighter version without Manila, if not it will have to wait til Monday. Sunday is a difficult one with family stuff etc ...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Chocolicious:
My issue is not with the actualy kitchen but the rar file wont extract everything, most of the .bat and.cmd files(56 to be exact). I get an access denied error message.

I am using Vista so it probably has something to do with permission as fecking per usual on Vista even though I am signed as administrator
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Help icon removed in both Light Beta2 and Full Beta 1, thanks for that ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] rxdoctor:
I ususally do not make comments on ROMS

Cuz they all suk. Last Cooked rom I tried fried my radio...sure you all heard about muritta radio? well that was after the problem went on for 2 weeks and I had to send in - of course we found solution next day after I sent in so I was without my htc cruise for almost 3 weeks....anyways about this rom. It rocks. The lite version is perfect. well nothing perfect. But so far fiddling around with it for over 12 hrs and all my 60+ proggys work and the speed is way better than anything else out so far and memmory leak is minimal. Everything works perfect for me. also super fast. The only problem i had so far is hotmail will not config on tf3d but thats becuase windows live was taken out. this can easily be fixed by installing a cab. I just wanted to say cheers. I know you did it supper fast but so far its the best work I have ever seen. All necessary apps are incl. runs perfect out of box....i just hate the cyb voice ****....always used to voice command....thanks again and bravo and keep up the asskicking quick work!!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ComPas-V:
OMG .. still not there :)

It's really slow... time to prepare custom packages, I guess.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Yeah sorry my internet connection went down this afternoon... so now uploading with thru my Diamond as a modem!! ETA 20mins..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Glad you like it and I appreciate the feedback ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeRrRKKKK:
to remove the help file link,

on your mobile device, go to c:\windows\start menu\programs

delete help.lnk

you might want to delete msn messenger.lnk too if its there

no need to wait for lite beta 2 now since you can do it yourself

btw i have a personal server too

if anybody needs a mirror for this rom, just let me know i'll gladly host it
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
If you could send me the link for the downloads on your server I´ll stick them on the first post.... thanks a lot mate that would be really useful.

As for Messenger there´s no messenger in either of the ROMs so no worries there ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Light Beta 2 posted at last on first post......... enjoy
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ceevee369:
Well, after testing Full Beta 1 maybe :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] daleski75:
Just wanted to say I have tried a lot of official roms and unofficial roms and this is by far the best one I have used so far, its quick stable and does not add stuff you do not need or cannot remove!

Keep up the good work and i'll be sure to be a 'returning customer'!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Really glad you like it.... thanks a lot.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Ce:
here's another fan. This is a real "lite" version...not a lite version that puts more in than was left out. Keep up the good work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
Thanks for the support. I've been very pleased as there's been a great reaction to my first Diamond ROM. Thanks for trying it ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] daleski75:
Chris do you have the 2 games to hand at all? ie bubble breaker and solitaire?

Cheers

Dale
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christonge:
I'm out in the country this afternoon with some friends and I'm using my Diamond to write this! So unfortunately I don't have my PC or files. I'm sure if you do a quick google you'll find the cabs. Sorry
