Thanks htctouchp for his hard-work and sharing. You are talent.

Credits also go to Blasev for the release of this ROM.

I find this ROM is incredibily fast and stable.....Thanks

The user should not demand too much from htctouchp cause it is a shareware

I am happy to use v1.7beta now and waiting for v1.9......

IPL/SPL | 2.27/ 2.28 by htctouchp

ROM | Essential v1.7beta

Radio | 03.21.90
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Sniff303:
Great ROM.

4 mb PP.

My Touch works really faster now :)

Thanks.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
guys, i feel it is not a good idea to say i shifted/migrated from "this" person's ROM. every cook works very hard for his ROM, so better not to mention the name of the cook or the ROM that you were previously using. i hope you guys understand what i mean :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] volcane:
yes boss... so I will say this...

So far this is the fastest ROM. :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
hmm, after 5 times sync with TESS v1.8, i have no problem.

That things can happen to any rom u use, just adjust "usb to pc" setting found in

menu ->setting ->connections

that should cover the problem ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] neoceltic:
Very fast and stable ROM, excellent work!

PS: thanks for bug Diamond SIP fixed ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] fairchild68:
I wouldn’t say that it is a very impolite thing to mention- nobody objects that there have been groundbreaking roms with a lot of work involved – shadow and swiftblade ruled for almost 6 months- but they do date and it is the very dynamic nature of our common hobby that things move forward.

I’m certain that the mentioned cooks are the first to understand- noonski may push the bar even higher and it is great what talent gathers here.

cheers
[Touch GSM ROM Development] akkad:
lite and amazing speed

i liked it, am just wondering how did u upgrade the speed!!! i thought it was only tweaking like minimizing timeouts or something but i found out that the whole performance has changed to higher speed even in installing some big size cabs and also in boot time itself, is this related to the new IPL/SPL or to the rom itself?? any way it is a good work, actually it is perfect.

i have just one question, how can i change the "Hide Keypad" button in the dialer to be "Contacts" just like in the htc touch original rom dialer ??? is it possible??
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
i won't debate

just wanna say that we should give respect to all chef

ok we could say that we have moved on

but we must tell the wonderful story we had with past rom :)

and do it in new thread, not here :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] fairchild68:
well said- i rest my case- back to business:)

HTC Elfin White

goog rom but too bad it always hang after flasing I do A hard rest working fine but sometimes when a text come's in it hang's going to contact it hang's also had to do a soft reset everytime ...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] c0oL:
Hmm, the problem occurs even when nothing's has been installed.

I'll give 1.8 another try then! :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
1.don't forget to upgrade to latest ipl and spl : 2.27/2.28

2.then upgrade the radio to 3.21.90

3. hard reset before use ;)

4. ps: reported that old/broken sd/mmc card can also causing the problem
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Piesang:
Thanks htctouchp. This 1.8 ROM is excellent.

Still missing Cube though. lol
[Touch GSM ROM Development] rodrigo05:
:'( I do not live more without the cube
[Touch GSM ROM Development] josieone:
Thanks htctouchp from austria. ROM 1.8 works fine :)

I had just one small problem with the crooked calculator skin.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] t4g:
I'm still trying to get the cube working :(

No success so far
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Campello:
I reinstalled the ROM and the problem with the Skin of the calculator was resolved.

btw, the problem with the camera was also resolved, but I believe that was a problem of conflict with the backup
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sancho555:
sry..............
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sancho555:
The problems with the calculator gone with the attach there: #840

greets from south-germany ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
that's correct ;) cheers
[Touch GSM ROM Development] c0oL:
Hmm, still no go even on a fresh & clean copy of 1.8 with no tweaks/configuration done. :(

IPL & SPL upgraded to 2.27 & 2.28 respectively,

Radio upgraded to 3.21.90,

Hard reset after flashing

BTW, the allocation of SMS space for my SIM card has all been taken up (if that's any concern), tried deleting them but same issue occurs.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
have u faced the same problem with other versions of the ROM i.e. 1.5, 1.6 or 1.7? some people have reported issues with this mixed XIP and SYS combination, although i didn't face this issue.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] chihliouma:
Hi HTCTOUCHP, just curious, in the new V1.8 Rom, why do you switch the Advanced Config from V3 back to V2 ? Any special reason for this change ? Thanks
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
as mentioned in the changelog, V3 had some bugs. also V3 is more suitable for VGA devices as the newly added functions in V3 are mostly for VGA devices. v2.1 is enough for QVGA and it also saves 300-400 KBs in final OS.nb which is worth it ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] chihliouma:
I see. Thanks for the reply. One more question, I remember you mentioned you may remove the "palringo" from the new ROM, but why is it still there ?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
maybe yes , maybe no ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sas_sas:

I wonder if there is "speaker on" feature on phone pad..

Flash to 1.6, my problem with "Messaging" will surface within 20mins of hibernation.

Seems like it's an issue with my Elfin (though I still don't know what the heck is wrong with it! :o)

I'll definitely try the next version once it's out. Till then, I'll have to drop back to other ROMs. :)

[Touch GSM ROM Development] rizjav_86:
thank you guys for this great rom. it is the best rom i have ever used

but i have some issues with it, i hope you will fix it in next version.

1-) i cant run any other program if the audio manager is running, if i do so then the audio manager shuts down.

2-) s2v 0.38 works but s2v 0.4 doesn't works (well that's really not a big problem)

3-) opera 9.5 doesn't works, as soon as i enter a url in it, it quits. :(

4-) just one more opinion, i don't think that every one uses palringo, so will you include it in the next release ?

i didn't found any other bug, this rom looks nice and runs really FAST :D

thank u htctouchp and all every1 who is involved in the making of this rom.

I tried Hard Reset, but with the key's not working nothing happening.

thats not possible. it SHOULD be working, at least for the hard reset. ROM has got nothing to do with the camera button for hard reset purpose.

yeah, everything else except for Network config wizard is same as v1.8. but that network config wizard is not working properly, so its better not to use v1.9 for flashing. use it just as a Base ROM if u want to cook your own ROM :)

as i said, better don't flash it. just use it as a Base ROM.

nice rom

first it's very a nice rom. i love it!

just one thing I noticed. when receiving text mssg. it doesnt play the the sms tone. it only vibrate and that's it. can we have a fix for that?!

thanx in advance

keep up with the good job
[Touch GSM ROM Development] flykthewiz:
Look in Sounds and Notifications!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] niceguy001:
yeah right, there i changed it but no luck.

I really test everyway possible to get it work but no chance. the problem is since version 1.2. i havent test the first(1.0, 1.1) and 1.9D version. in all other version the problem remained unsolved.

thanx for replying and i hope we can find a way to fix it.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
u must learn the basic dump and cook in noonski cooking thread ;)

did u change the sound&notification setting? just revert back to original, cause in original setting, the sms should have sound. and if u ask me how to revert back? as i always said -> hard reset is the best ;)

or maybe u use backup software to restore things, or maybe u install app that cause that, the truth is u can have 100 reason. but in original rom , it wont happen :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
it does play the incoming SMS tone. try a hard reset.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] absorber786:
I noticed that....like bling...

But on a different note/suggestion:

1)Can you guys create a post listing all the versions with the difference associated build nos etc? (maybe linked to a change log)

2)Where did change log go to cos i really liked that?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
1. support for all previous versions will end, thats why old changelog has been cleared.

2. network wizard we had before was quite an old build. i tried a couple of newer ones, but they seemed to have some bug. so there is an option to try a better/newer network wizard for all. however, if someone can give me the latest cab of the network wizard, that can be precooked into the ROM again.

PS: we want to test the newer build ourselves first before we release the ROM. and btw, any credit for removing 'palringo' :p?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] flykthewiz:
Can you put the cab you used to use alonside the mms cab though - so at least there is something.

Yes :) Credit for removing Palringo. When they eventually sort out multiple conversations properly it will be brilliant but not yet.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
definitely the link for network wizard cab will be provided when the ROM is released. but i'm hoping someone provides me a working latest build of it, so that it can be pre-cooked into the ROM.
