This latest ROM feels solid and stable, performance is great and there is no other major bugs that the screen turning off during phone calls (that can be solved via a CAB file "nosleep.cab" attached to this post). The latest software additions are great.

Just noticed that on 2.8, the left softkey in the people tab says Contact when it should say Contacts
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] boz:
No problems with messaging menu for me with the MSVC 2.8 RTM ROM :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] charly_mx:
well yes i confirm that, However the button is working and personally i like the way it is :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] irvine:
It's a Nice ROM, I flashed the V2.8RTM and Radio bs14, how can I set it auto turn off screen during call, I found screen and backlight always on while a call, it's too waste power.

Even I tweaked

HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableFastDormantDisplayDuringCall "1"

HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\Sleep "1"

how can i do? thank you
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] The Jones:
Fair enough! You are right, it functions as expected...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] charly_mx:
mmmhh... what can you do:

1) use the search button and look for and answer

2) read on the forum

3) read 4 post before yours

4) if you cant solve the problem it by following the last 3 steps, go by an iphone :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Skiless:
Oh, Aserg's ROM http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=415253 came with 1.95 bundled with new drivers.

So, Dutty's ROM has room for improvements :-)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] duttythroy:
new drivers doesnt really mean any major improvements infact the 2.7 rc2 was newer drivers, which some problem occured.

If the msvc version is working great without no more hiccups I can re-upload the cvsd version with the necesary fixes I have ordered my new diamond , expansy messed up so i will possibly will have to wait one more day for it but should get it by this week
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] uniqueboy:
All the new ones are pink!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] duttythroy:
very nice review but I wouldnt call turn off screen a bug but afeature on diamond to save power:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] User X:
Can someone post a link to the MSVC version? I've looked in the first post and the Dutty's server and can only find "Duttys Diamond 5.2.19974 V2.8 RTM Full CVSD", which I believe is the CVSD version ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] The Jones:
Very true, however there is an issue in the 2.8 CVSD version whereby setting the Diamond to have the backlight on bright when unlocking doesnt work. Meaning that the backlight is always dimmed when unlocking no matter how its set for instance in advanced config.

Not sure if this has been fixed or not in the MVSD version or not...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] matt44:
I've had the Diamond for a few days and as a complete newbie to this phone format and technical stuff in general, I downloaded your ROM and it's brilliant! The phone works MUCH better, is quicker, the battery lasts alot longer, it picks up album art and whatever you've done to the camera is great!

Nice one!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] boz:
Here you go. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] duttythroy:
I'm glad ur enjoying ur diamond now:)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] duttythroy:
To be honest hen fixing the dim backlight I couldnt se what people were taliking about as i test it with my kaiser and it was the same behaviour, not sure about it in msvc version but I think the msvc version had solve some issues need to investigate when i get my diamond
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] The Jones:
Cool. I may get a chance to flash the MSVC version tomorrow night and if I do, I will report back. Its not a big issue, but I like perfection!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ericsson68:
Dutty I don't know if you have seen my last post about the email/sms delete not working correctly but I have just reflashed with MSVC version and it still isn't working correctly. It really is quite a major issue as effectively it means the delete command has to be issued twice (involving a complete trip out and back in to the inbox) in order to actually delete a message.

If you could look at that it would be appreciated.

Thanks

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] User X:
Can't believe I missed it! Now I'm embarassed :o

Thanks man! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] duttythroy:
same here I like perfection but perfection to me might not be perfection for someone else, Either way there are lot of people using my roms some which install lot of 3rd party apps which can cause in-stabilty and some like me just use the rom as it is with just few add on cabs.

I will try my best to make a good final rom even if it takes me sometime:)

thanks again for ur feedbacks and support
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] duttythroy:
I cant do anything until i get my new diamond, is it from the main box or from the manila.:confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ericsson68:
Sorry yes I forgot about that.

The issue appears to stem from the main inbox. If you delete an sms it goes from the main box straight away but doesn't refresh manila until you move out of the tab and back in.

With the email again it stems from the main box (as one can't delete from manila) where you open a message, choose menu and delete but no confirmation box is offered. The message disappears as if it has deleted and even if you flick back and forth through the messages it won't display. However, you go back to manila and the message is still there - you can even tap it and it will open.

Click the same email message a second time and the menu>delete combo does then issue a confirmation message. Message deletes and it's gone from manila as it should.

It's always first delete=doesn't work, second delete=works.

Does that help to explain?

Dutty this version is perfect!!!!

Dutty great rom Thanks for all your hard work
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] User X:
Unfortunately not for everyone.

The BT Stereo headset(Sony DR-BT21G) still has numerous problems - doesn't reconnect, sound qulity isn't very good. BT handsfree feature works and reconnects, only A2DP fails to reconnect, so you have to pair again in order to listen to the music. Also it would be nice to be able to use the Audio Booster with A2DP.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] erikalara:
Embedded youtube!

Hello Dutty

this MSVC version is really cool and fast!

The only thing I have to report so far is that embedded youtube clips (installing Adobe Flashlite 3.1) do not display correctly on Opera, which used to do on the official WWE rom.

I think it may be a pagepool issue (?).

Could you please look into this ??

It would make your work close to PERFECT!

THANKS A MILLION!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] stpete111:
If I recall correctly, Dutty doesn't use Flash Lite 3.1 and therefore doesn't support it. You may want to consider downgrading to an older version of Opera if that worked for you.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] runebinder:
Installed the MSVC version a couple of hours ago, feels smoother than the CVSD version, no issues as of yet, great work Dutty.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] duttythroy:
glad to know, :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] TML1504:
yeah, me too:

flashed the msvc about half an hour ago, seems to be very smooth!

so far no issues, also bt is working very well!

congrats & thx, dutty!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jackx:
I confirm that

Thanks again Dutty :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] WiZARD7:
thx exit button in the comm manager won't exit. only the X in the top corner... :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tnyynt:
That's a "by design behaviour" and not a bug. It is supposed to be like this.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ewans:
Hi Dutty,

As I think I've said before, thank you very much for all the hard work you put into this. It is greatly appreciated.

I've used ROM's from yourself and one of the other respected Diamond chefs, both are excellent but with 2.8 lite it's getting close to perfect - well until HTC make some improvements to things like the the 'coverflo' functionality of the mp3 player!

In particular, I've found 2.8 lite to be significantly faster than both the other lite version and the last ROM of yours I used - I think it might have been 2.5. It's little things like being able to touch the tab I want and it instantly opening which make the difference.

The only issues I have have already been mentioned by others, but I'll list them in case any extra info helps address them. To be honest, these issues are minor and in some cases people may prefer the functionality this way.

1. Task Manager - I'm a big fan of the standard HTC one, and in particular I like the X button on the home screen. I can't seem to install it on this ROM though - when I do, I get the config option in settings, and you can see the X button while touchflo loads, but once it has started it seems to 'overwrite' it. I'd love to find a way to use the HTC version, or at least have the same X button functionality somehow.

2. Sleep during a call - I like to keep the screen on, and even the nosleep cab doesn't seem to work on my device (UK T-Mobile Compact IV). As someone said, the screen does come back on when the call ends.

3. Backlight dim when the lock screen is on - Dutty I think you mentioned that it is like this by default on the Kaiser, which is correct, but one of the good features on the Diamond is to be able to override this - it makes it much easier unlocking the device in bright sunlight.

So as I said, no major issues, but if anyone can help then that would be great.

And one last thing - from my experience of flashing ROM's, one of the most important things is to live with it for a while - I see lots of posts from people on here or other threads saying a ROM is useless after trying it for 5 minutes. The people who say things like this aren't worth listening (or responding) to!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] WiZARD7:
lol :)

so its a feature, not a bug, when the "exit" button won't exit.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mccune:
Yes it is! The idea is to have a multitasking environment. This has been a discussion that started the same day MS release Windows CE :P

Now if the button was called "Close" then it would be a bug *LOL*
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] User X:
Actually there are some ROMs available on this site where the exit button actually does what it really should do, so even if it's been designed just to minimise the com. manager it could be tweeked to close it. I think it's something to look into when coocking later ROMs rather than a bug, nothing major basically...;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lazyhaze:
lol if its a "feature" then its a "feature" in only duttys rom as it isnt that way in stock or any other cooked rom i've tried.

so is there a way we can get the original function back as its an annoying "feature"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kd3141:
That would be nice - to have the CVSD version with fixes included - please do it ....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lazyhaze:
??? bruv no offence meant but check your english, exit an application means exit not minimise
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] pavbul:
Just flashed new 2.8 RTM MSVC ROM into my diamond.

One questions - everyone says it's incredibly fast and instant in opening manila tabs.

For me it still takes 2-3 seconds for each tab to appear - probably because of "by design" animation. Can it be turned off somehow?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] JBaruch:
Yeah! Both the bluetooth handsfree and the wireless stereo work great! Dutty, you're the man!

Thanks for the great ROM.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Weisan:
just play with ur phone a little it will soon get fast. i think it is like that for all.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] n.mowberry:
I have an issue with the contacts tab, unlike 2.7 where the letter on the scrollbar was out of sync with the letter on screen, this will not let me grab the list and scroll it with my finger or stylus.. bit annoying as i can't get to all my contacts unless i type them in.

Just wondering whether this was done on purpose or not and whether there is an easy fix.

Otherwise, Dutty, your ROM's are the best i have used and i have gone throught quite a few.

cheers,
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] runebinder:
Have you tried going to settings> system> task manager> button> end task manager by tapping x? Works fine for me
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mccune:
Use the RandomAccess CAB fix in this thread. Or use the MSVC version.

Internet Explorer

HI guys,

One issue for me ( nothing to do with dutty's Software), When i use the internet explorer and going to Arabic website to read some news.

It's coming out as Squares... i cannot read anything..

Any suggestion to be able to read them,

By the way well done with your job Dutty...

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] User X:
Well, I'm kinda familiar with the basics ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tnyynt:
Ok people: first of all be do not analyze English here, we all know what Exit means.

Default CommManager behaviour is to always minimize on tapping X and Exit. It was never designed to Exit but minimize. The reason "other" ROMs seem to have it close is that CommManager is not showing up in Task Manager (when tapping Exit). I advise you to use a third party task managet and look for the running process of CommManager in the background, once launched. Here's a new one which might sound strange to you: even if you set Task manager to close apps on simple tap, it will not close the CommManager, but minimize it on some ROMs. Once again, check for process running in the background. The only way of getting rid of it is forcibly kill it's process (forcibly like ctrl+alt+del on a PC).

As for dutty's ROM, it has the option to show CommManager in Task manager built in it, to help you see running process, instead of hiding it while still running like stock ROMs do.

My advice to you Guys is to make some research when bashing senior members. Search for this issue and you will find lots of reference. Also, you can check Memory before, after launching and then after closing. It will take up approx. 1 MB of memory which it will not free up.

MSVC ROM

i flashed it last night and going to play today :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] goRt:
Hi Dutty,

Tried the 2.8 lite - every bit as good as your others - bluetooth works for me (although it does drop connections mid call, they can be re-connected straight away)

However, the alarm didn't sound today - first time I've experienced this on any ROM

Thanks

PS, also get the e-mail not deleting bug on TF3D, but works fine if you go into the inbox to delete

TimeZone issue

i flashed this rom on my diamond it works like a charm the only problem is that the time zone changes but itself..please any solutions?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] turt:
Hi Dutty (or anybody else reading this),

Do you have the "Small HTC keyboard" (the one in your latest ROMs) available as a cab?

Thanks! :)

Copy Tahoma font from your desktop windows/fonts into your device /windows/.

It worked for Hebrew.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ericsson68:
Dutty re the inbox in TF not refreshing. I've twigged what's going on. It's actually the same issue for both text and email - it's just that as deleting from TF with SMS is possible it looks different at face value.

TF is registering deleted items as if they are in the inbox. So in email main inbox when you delete from menu>delete, it is actually deleting it's just that TF doesn't update. So of course when I was tapping it again in TF and it was opening I was assuming it to be still in inbox. That is why the second menu>delete combo works. And again why you wouldn't see this in SMS is you use TF to delete.

Either way, it's not normal TF behaviour. Hope that helps a bit more as my last explanation will have thrown you possibly.

Cheers

TF3d does not start on Duttys V2.8 RTM Full MSVC

Please, can you help me? TF3D does not run after Duttys V2.8 RTM Full MSVC installation on my diamond, there is only message: "tap here to launch TouchFLO 3D'..when I tap the screen nothing happens..

thanks in advance

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] The Jones:
Just flashed 2.8 MSVC. It does feel snappier and generally pretty good. Too early for me say very much about it though.

One thing I can confirm is that the dim backlight when unlocking bug (that is when the device would not listen to the setting for that in the Power settings) is now gone and solved. Well done Dutty!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mccune:
@krisss49

Did you hard reset after flashing?

No problems here with TF3D on 2.8 MSVC.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tepss:
First of all: i really respect great Duttys work! Cheers.

Second: 2.8 works great. But i do have serious bug. Camera. It never works after SR, i have to kill it from task manager and start again and do so unless it will start properly. Also i've noticed strange things happens to backlight when trying to start camera. I'm not totaly newbie and i did my homework. I've searched for answers and similiar problems on the forum. I've been testing different settings and reg settings for camera for 2 days and still the same. Any ideas? hadn't got any problem on 2.6. i am using cvsd.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mugglesquop:
had this with a couple of ROMs... make sure u have done a Hard Reset after flashing (as said above).

sometimes a couple of soft resets sort the problem if a hard reset doesnt :)

I have in the past, Sometimes in phone settings it is a toss up to leave the time zone checked or unchecked, also in the clock settings, you may have to set it to a different time zone....also.....Did you apply the time Zone patch on your PC if using windows?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] LondonTownGuy:
Using 2.8RtM MSVC version with radio BS.16 upgrade from 2.3a. radio.07

Touchpal does not work sometimes it does not open and cannot get it to install as default method even using SIPChange.

A lesser problem, games folder does not work it installs in TF3D but once another program is opened then it stops responding.

TF3D is slightly snappier than 2.3a but also there is some lagg on ocassion whilst the system tries to catch up.

Gone is 3G from comm manager and sometimes when you open, the wifi does not light up and also there is a delay in the Microsoft direct push to light up.

There is an improvement in bluetooth which is faster on connection and MSVC works faster with my plantronics.

Generally if there is a cab for these bluetooth drivers I would prefer to use 2.3a with the upgraded bluetooth if possible. If not I will stick with this as its generally a great rom.
