[Touch GSM ROM Development] RaffieKol:
Bro not as much as we Appreciate This Rom - Thanks
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
yeah but htctouchp agree with me about the blue one LOL

[Touch GSM ROM Development] ymag:

[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
use "Menu>select messages"
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Piesang:
Thanks for the new ROM. v.2 is awesome. Very fast. Just going to install Cube and MMS now.

What is the name of the app to do the automatic settings for GPRS and MMS? I read somewhere that it is not installed. Is there a seperate CAB file somewhere for that?

v1.8 was working perfectly.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
yeah, htc network wizard. thats what u need. by the way i've found a latest working cab for network wizard and that i will use in future versions :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Piesang:

[Touch GSM ROM Development] dvukasovic:
ActiveSync problem(s)

first of all thank you for a great ROM!

I have an issue though, with ActiveSync (AS) and syncing to Exchange over GPRS and USB.

Currently the settings for sync are:

- from 0800 to 1600 sync as items arrive (items arrived and it didn't sync, started manual sync from Vista mobile center - it worked).

- outside of that time, sync every hour

The device will not sync automatically regardless of what I set in the Schedule and Peak time options. When I sync manually it works.

AS doesn't start automatically (when I used other ROMs it would start by itself, even if I manually closed it). I turn it on manually and leave it running.

There is no log of any activity in AS (no View details option which would indicate that AS tried to do something).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
could u try TESSv1.6 and see if the problem still exist?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] wernerbaden:
Hello,

great ROM, i am missing the HTC-Network - Wizard. Can i get a download link?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mr_ding:
See link in post #1106 on Page 111
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
thx for helping out, and new network wizard will be included in the next version.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] wernerbaden:
Hello mr_ding

this file gives me a popup "error in the program"

(i installed this cab-file on the device)

@blasev

This would be nice
[Touch GSM ROM Development] wernerbaden:
it works now, i have switch off completely.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dvukasovic:
well, I could try that. I forgot to mention I'm using TESS 2.0 now.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] nazimster:
hello

help me pls

i have upgrade my htc p3450 to 6.1

can i upgrade to your Touch ESSential v.2

and i have already unlocked

can u help me pls
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mr_ding:
Yes you can.

Go ahead and enjoy the great ROM. :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
and tell us the result :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Charusen:
Any chance of some benchmarks comparing:

Touch Essential 2.0 vs Touch Surface vs Blue Elves 5.0 vs Shadow 2.1 vs ?

As Blue Elves and Shadow have not been updated in a while, this is a good chance to see how the new ROM's compare with the older ROM's?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dvukasovic:
Well, I partially listened to you :)

Did some flashing yesterday night and at one point installed latest IPL/USPL, went back to TESS 1.8 and it seems to work fine (except for some GPRS connect issues that happen regardless of ROM).

When connected by USB it synchronizes as it used to.

Using GPRS it syncs OK (or at least it says it tried to sync but had network error).

So right now I'd say it works. Thanks for the suggestion/solution!

P.S. Very nice Theme in 1.8 version.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:

[Touch GSM ROM Development] uschneider1969:
Soft reset / reboot everytime I press the off key?!?!

Hello,

I flashed the rom without any problem. But I can't use it. The device reboots every time I push the off/power on/off button or if the decive goes to stand by mode. I installed no application. Anyone the same problem and a solution?

Cheers!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Piesang:
This looks so nice. Which ROM looks like this??

[Touch GSM ROM Development] Charusen:
One bug I found for feedback:

After installing ROM for first time/HARD Reset, I connect up to Activesync to load up my contacts. Only 'One' contact fails to transfer over and that contact has 'Birthday and Anniversary' dates saved. Once I delete the Birthday/Anniversary info, the contact loads up without any problems.

Anyone else with many contacts with Birthdays and Anniversaries face the same problem?

This has happened 3 times today after I hard reset the device each time.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
never had these problem

hmm did u push the power on/off button to long?? the device will goes off, and u press on again it will reboot .

did u lock your screen device?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] uschneider1969:
I am not pushing the button any longer then before. The device reboots as well when it's going into seeping mode. Is there anything I could have done wrong during flashing?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
it might be bad flash so just reflash ;) , and use lates ipl and spl.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Sr. Gusano:
Great ROM

Hi, Guys. I'm using your Rom since version 1.1, and never had a problem, you did an excellent work. I also installed several cabs and worked fine. Congratulations for both of you and thanks in the name of all we use these phones (or toys?) everyday. Bye.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mr_ding:
This is from the HTC Diamond itself.

The closest one is like your first link, use SPB Mobile Shell.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
hmmm strange indeed, u must try to change "usb to pc" setting

i have many contacts with anniversary and birthday, but never had the same problem. anyone else having the same problem? and could u specify windows os,activesync ver and outlook version
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thebomber:
i am waiting for 2.1

make a change please not all version the same :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dvukasovic:
Don't know if this will be of any help for the more knowledgeable...

It seems that my problem with 2.0 is that an entry is not created in the notification queue. In TESS 1.8 (using memmaid) I see an entry in the Notification queue under "Time based" which starts repllog.exe at the time of the next sync. That entry was never present in the Notification queue with 2.0 version.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] aznmonster:
lol, 2.1 is rolling out n im still using 1.2 !!! cannot keep flashing ROM like this :-s
[Touch GSM ROM Development] riaze:
hi guys. Congratulations htctouchp and blasev for this rom ! Clean and fast

I'm using it since the early version, and really happy with it.

(for me the best one i've been able to test for HTC Touch (Elf)).

But a few days ago, our company upgraded to exchange 2007...

and pushmail simply stop to work since this day (using ROM v2.0)...

(I have tested it on another HTC Touch with Orginal WM6 ROM... and it works without any problem.)

Activesync message :

"synchronization could not be completed. Try again later

Support code: 0x85010013"

I first think of config trouble (may be related to certificate or something like that). So try to hard reset it...without any success.

I then think of a WM6.1 bug with Exchange2007...and found this thread :

http://forums.microsoft.com/windows...tid=3725559&sb=0&d=1&at=7&ft=11&tf=0&pageid=2

Seems that there is a bug between WM6.1 and exchange2007...a fix should be available...but don't know when...

But it seems also that not all WM 6.1 ROM are affected by this trouble :

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2521441&postcount=79

Having said that...Have to go back to original WM ROM ? or another ROM ?

What a pity... :(

Seems that i'm the only guy having this trouble...but htctouchp, could you have a look to it ?

Whatever will be your answer, one more time congratulation for this ROM !

And thx to this great community ! (having learn so much on this board !)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
Quite frankly speaking, even my company uses exchange 2007 and I have never faced any problems syncing with our emails. Yet I'd inform you that when I flash ROMs or HR my device, I have to install a certificate on my device which is issued by our company. I guess that is the certificate which allows the device to sync with exchange 2007

Did you check with your IT guys?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] riaze:
thx for your reply ababrekar.

Yes you are right, the certificate will allow the device to sync with exchange.

But when establishing the first connection to the server, the certificate is installed on the device (password for device unlocking after a certain time, plus some other security policies).

The trouble appear just after the certificate installation, when mail (and calendar, contacts, etc...) should start synchronize.

Have open a ticket with our IT guys, will come back to you then.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] chowchow:
Thank you so so much for all the good work!!!

Hey guys, thank you so so much for all the good work!!!! Now I can finally have my phone in English...was in Chinese before and had been wipe out by the 'local expert'!!!

I just cannot say thank you enough!!!

Keep up the good work!!!

HOT RELEASE

Change Log for TESS V.2.1:

- New OS and XIP : 20748.1.4.0

- New Comprehensive Network Wizard

- New Tweak to maximize Speed And Stability

- Real Time Clock

- Changes in activesync to solved some problem

(it will run automatically every 5 minutes, to make it manually sync => click here or here )

- partial black theme ;)

no longer beta :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
1. Real time clock means, you won't have to change the date and time at welcome screen after flashing.

2. active sync issues should be solved, but still need to be tested. so early feedbacks are most welcome.

PS: if you find active sync starting automatically after 4-5 mins or so and u don't want that, use the "fake" server registration method. blasev uses Sktools for the same purpose.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] chihliouma:
just curious why you call it a BETA version instaed of formal one as the previous version that you launched ? I know you want people to test, but is there any known bugs ?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
we (me and blasev) didn't find any as yet. but being a new build, u never know ;)

plus, we are little bit busy these days, so can't test everything on our own. therefore we need more feedbacks before renaming it to "Final"
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Rene-357:
amazing, i cant stop flashing your roms. im gona try it
[Touch GSM ROM Development] chihliouma:
Thanks for the reply. Just one more question, what's the PP of this ROM ? Just a suggestion, please just add the PP in the 1st post and let people who want to change can be easier to find. Thanks
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Ameet:
It means after the flash, date and time selected in ROM is of the time of cooking the .nbh ;) So if anyone flashes later, he/she gets the time back from the cooking

You may have to post procedure to do this :)

Care to share brothers? :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
the PP normally is default for both Elf and Elfin. but in this one:

1. Elfin PP = 18 MB (i changed for testing)

2. Elf PP = 8 MB default
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
thats why u should read first post carefully, cause i already write it there
[Touch GSM ROM Development] chihliouma:
haha, sorry for my missing. Thanks

latest radio ipl spl :S
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
i already study your problem since a long long long time ago, it's your third party software/ your own modification. cause no one else having the same problem. (and with fresh install, I'M SURE no one else are having these)

cheers :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thebomber:
dude clean rom come on nothing installed fresh clean install

and does it mean that i am the only one that i am joking around i have been since v1
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
sorry to disappoint u. but i don't have a solution to the problem u face with my ROMs. i didn't find anything anywhere.

btw, u face the problem after resuming from standby?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thebomber:
ya after standby but what causes it it only occurs in touch essential

never with touch surface or any other thats why i am asking

:(
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
try disabling the automatic standby. i guess if u do it manually, the problem won't resurface. even i'm looking for some logic behind this, but somehow didn't find any as yet.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thebomber:
ok i wil try but mediafire is down for now will try later

and give ya the updates thx for helping

by the way where is the standby thing your talking about :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
click on Battery icon, then advanced and untick the "turn off device if ...". btw, mediafire is working over here.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mr_ding:
Here's a megaupload mirror link

Feel free to mirror that on Page 1.

thx mr ding working like a charm
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
thx bro, I add it to first post :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mr_ding:
Upgrade to v2.1 went fine (did a hard-reset manually after flashing)

The initial (black color clock) on blue background looks kind of weird, but easily fixed by switching to Diamond QVGA, so no big deal.

Network Wizard now works for Canada (Canada wasn't even listed on some older Network Wizard)

Will play around a bit more tomorrow, going to bed myself now (1am EST). Thanks for another update.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] tjkhattak61:
I suppose this is the procedure to stop Activesync from periodically starting on it's own:-

Open Activesync on your device and tap on Menu>Add Server Source.

Add any info to create a fake server sync.

After that go to Menu>Schedule and change the two drop downs to "Manual" and tap "Ok" at the top right.

You can now go to Menu>Options and delete the Exchange Server setting you just added.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
we decide to make it final since we don't find new bug

cheers :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Techie87:
congrats with the new version guys :)

I flashed the 2.1 beta but i returned to 2.0 again .. I found the 2.1 being slower then the 2.0 :/ sometimes i couldn't send sms messages with the 2.1 either .. weird but whatever ^^ i'm happy with 2.0 :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
mmm strange indeed :confused:, did u install mms or other messaging app?

about the speed is somehow subjective, but the bechmark result show that v2.1 is faster ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Techie87:
hmm i did .. i always install VITO Technology SMS-Chat v1.1 . But on 2.0 I ain't got issues with this app . :p
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
ow it might be build issues

and i forgot to tell u all, this version activesync fix is meant for exchange server user, so if don't use exchange server.. please make activesync run manually by making fake server, the link guide is posted in the first post change log :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] JohnQ:
hi, cooker!~ is there any idea of disable of the large icon menu? i want the small icon menu back lol. thanks.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:

Thanks man! you are the man!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] JohnQ:
hey, i did the tweak. the large menu is disabled. but the task manager still the large icon. what to do . thanks.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] JohnQ:
hey blasev, i did the tweak. it worked. the menu get smaller. but the task manager still large, what to do?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] ksk622:
go to setting>>system>> task manager >>other to select small size...

if you are saying the BIG htc task manger icon.... then sorry i cant help :p

One question... why the gray box/ for the close button is not there??? any 1 know how to enable it?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
that has been disabled by microsoft in new builds.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] ksk622:
hmm ok... hopefully it will back in near future...

oh ya htctouchp is it possible to enlarge the all the menus size/font size ( not the large start menu) through registry? i wan bigger than the current one :p
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
hope u enjoyed it :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] aznmonster:
could u also remove

- Dot Fred Task Manager v3.1 (as we might only need HTC Task Manager)

- ClearTEMP 1.02 (some of us still prefer Memmaid)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mr_ding:
Recommendation:

Remove in next release:

Notepad, PHM

Add in next release:

PIM Backup

Wishlist:

Cyberon Voice Commander (to be added)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
LOL, i smell this rom gonna be ultra clean rom (we already have a GREAT ultra clean rom in elf forum and we are not planning to make another one), guys let me explain again our concept : Lite WWE, contain only small and most useful program, the definition for "useful" is differ between people. so we will adjust this rom to most general ways. mmm PIM backup - good idea
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
if that is version 2.51, then yes ;)

i just deleted the registry. it should have worked. pls give me the link of the registry that u tried, i'll check it out for u.

EDIT: i've posted a patch to get back block and letter recognizer, pls check post 3.

if you take my advice, dont use antivirus...especially eset, not even in your PC. if you use the phone carefully, antivirus is never needed. it mostly deteriorates the performance of the phone.

1. Dot fred task manager lets u do a lot of things which HTC task manager doesn't.

2. i have never used memmaid. but i believe cleartemp does an excellent job too.

those 2 are definitely going out. as for PIM backup, i've said before that there is no need for us to have it in the ROM. you can permanently keep a copy of this wonderful program in SD card. that serves the purpose very well. and voice commander, haha, i guess that can be used as a cab.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kuankm:

[Touch GSM ROM Development] kuankm:
Thanks for the help. I will download now.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kuankm:
I have done USPL update, Is there any different if i dont change IPL?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
u can update the IPL also to latest version. but the decision is upto you as only USPL is needed to flash cooked ROMs.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] aznmonster:
may i know the link to download that ultra clean ROM? thanks :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kuankm:
I have updated the ROM. Thanks aman, i really like this ROM.
