I'm prepping to release V2.1 tomorrow morning. Nothing major is being fixed that cannot already be done by installing a few CABs, so it will mostly be for people who were holding out on flashing my ROM due to issue reported up until now.

Pending Change List:

Splash Screen - something less tacky

Remove .NetCF 3.5 from loaded versions - compatibility issues reported

Replace RealOne Player - Shogunmark's modified version that works with Cingular Video

Cook 10-button Comm Manager back into all ROMs

Please let me know if I missed anything.

Also,

Per a few requests, I will release 2 additional versions of V2.1 They will use the AT&T and HTC base ROMs, but will include HTC Home. If anyone out there has a city that HTC Home doesn't acknowledge, let me know and I'll add it to the database before cooking.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] adoute:
If it's not too big a hassle, please add Plymouth, MI to HTC Home weather in the AT&T loaded version. I've been following the threads on your hard work, and was just about ready to flash your v2 ROM. Looks like I'll be waiting for v2.1.

If you don't have the time to add Plymouth, no worries - I still am looking forward to giving v2.1 a shot.

Thanks for your hard work -
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
I wasn't planning to put HTC Home into the loaded version of the ROM. Instead, I am going to release a Base + HTC Home version.

I will make sure Plymouth, MI is added to HTC Home.

Thank you - for the clarification and the weather addition. I'm looking forward to the Base + HTC Home version.

Please add Langley. BC, Canada to the HTC Home database if you have a chance, if not no worries.

I also have a great splash screen for you, I found it on XDA and would work great for your HTC ROM. I have uploaded the files needed if you want to use it or try it. Credit -888- on all the work.

I have kept your animated.gif (the HTC logo) and quickly made the welcomehead.96.png . It looks clean and nice, if others like it maybe you could cook it into your HTC ROMs. Thanks again for all the hard work.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] goestoeleven:
My request would be to keep the stock AT&T/HTC Smartdialer in the AT&T ROMs. It's easily overwritten and/or disabled for those that don't want it. It's compatible with a lot of the skins that are out there, and it prevents a great degree of hassle trying to restore it after the fact...

Otherwise, very slick, and I'm ready to contribute to the cause... :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] misfitflt:
If you please, I would like to see the registry tweaks included.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
I know, especially since I'm using the same version for each ROM.

Not unless Manilla 2D allows the removal of the existing HTC apps.

Still working on it. But no, the dialer does not install correctly yet.

Check out the Manilla 2D thread for these topics.

I was able to remedy this by setting up the exchange account on the phone first and synching before connecting to my computer. It now shows up in manilla.

My Exchange Server ActiveSync is working and notifying properly (using 3G connection).

Are you using ActiveSync over the data connection to go directly to your Exchange Server or are you using synching to Outlook on your PC?

NATF you make some great roms. These are the only ones I use anymore. Great job!!

You said you use the BT250V, I have the same one. It was great with my 8525, I could walk 30 feet from it with no problems. But unless you are in line of sight (and within 10 feet) with my Tilt it breaks up bad. Do you have the same problem?

Thanks,

So far, bad news with HardSPLv3.56 and ATT(3.57) v3.5.2-Loaded ROMs

Just wanted to let everyone know of my experience with the v3.5.2Loaded ATT ROM and HardSPLv3.56. GPS simply would not work correctly, or at all, with every radio I tried. Everything else worked great. I switched to HardSPLv3.28 and all is well.

No idea which radio is working better as of yet. I'm in PA, USA on 3G(HSDPA)AT&T. Anyone have any US AT&T radio input to give on this ROM with the HardSPLv3.28? I tried SPLv3.29 but it is not a fully hardened SPL (from ATT) and won't allow direct radio and ROM loading from SD. Since there has never been much of a difference reported between v3.28 and v3.29, I see no harm.

Good success with HardSPLv3.56 and GPS

I'm using SPL-3.56.Hard and get 3D lock indoors in under 50 seconds with radio 1.65.21.18.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
I had my signature edited and ready to click Submit before Ruiz caught the pop up.

I'm sorry, I got caught up in the game last night and forgot to grab the CABs for you. I did a rather exhaustive search of the site and came up with 2 of the CABs you requested. I have a sinking feeling that I deleted the BT File Explorer CAB file from my laptop... if I did, then I just have to recreate it using WinCE CAB Manager tonight.

These CAB files may not be the exact version I use. I didn't create them, and although the posts I found them in were fairly new, they are not marked with version numbers.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
I tested my GPS yesterday after reports of it being spotty, and I was able to get a 3D fix within 20 seconds. Here's what I did.

Hard reset, just to rule out cached GPS data.

Opened QuickGPS and downloaded the latest satellite data.

Opened GPS Test. It detected my GPS on COM4, and within 20 seconds had a 3D fix on 8 satellites.

I then launched Google Maps, and it instantly located me (after selecting "Use GPS" from the options menu.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] stesul411:
I'm in western PA, about 30 miles south west of Pittsburgh, using hardSPLv3.56 and the NEON radio in my sig line. I get a GPS lock in about 30 to 60 seconds, and great phone reception even with a poor signal (1 or 2 bars).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] wisniak:
Thank you, Todd, I appreciate your help.

I installed the games cab, they were installed in the appropriate folder.

I also installed the bt quicklink ot the SD card, but for the life of me I can't find the shortcut...

I'll wait for the other bt cab.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] wisniak:
This is what I did

I also perform the 1st 2 steps (if I'm trying out a new radio only, then I don't HR).

I don't use GPS Test, I execute my SATNAV app (IGO8, legal), go straight to the GPS status screen and begin measuring the time to obtain TTFF.

After exhaustive testing, I settled on the latest Niki radio (with EMO being a very close second).

But for the past 2-3 days, after trying out both v4 Loaded versions and reverting to v3.25 Loaded, I've been experiencing very bad GPS TTFF, even if I SR prior to running IGO8 and loading an updated AGPS file (even if it was refreshed only a couple of hours ago).

What I did was to reflash AT&T Loaded v3.25, reflash the latest Niki radio, and also flashed a nice startup screen (the clownfish). This (the splashscreen) is the only different thing. I then restored from backuo (which was the last backup I did prior to flashing the v4 ROMs).

Since I'm using the setup that was restored from backup, this means that nothing else has changed.

So to summarize - I've been experiencing VERY bad GPS TTFF, and so couple of hours ago I reflashed the EMO radio, and indeed within about 50 seconds I had GPSTTFF, and within less than 10 seconds subsequent fixes.

I REALLY don't know what's going on. I don't believe that the clownfish splash screen should have any sort of effect on GPS fixes.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
Try using GPS Test. It runs in the background and does not affect performance at all. I don't bother with A-GPS since GPS by itself is enough of a battery killer without a data connection compounding it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] wisniak:
Todd, What do you mean (regarding running in the backgroud)?

I thought that if GPS test was runnig, then it'd lock the COM port to be used by the SATNAV app?

And AGPS runs only once, every X days, and loads a data file to be used by the GPS. Every article etc I've read up to now, explains that the AGPS data is essential in order to have faster GPS acquition times.

[edit] You know, you just gave me idea.

Usually, I setup Task Manager so that all apps are closed when I press the X button. This is to conserve memory.

But, if GPS Test DOES help in shortening GPS acquisition times, then maybe it should be left running in the background at all times?

So, I loaded GPS Test, minimized it, and went to Task Manager.

Then I pressed the stylus on the GPS Test application name, until a menu popped up, and I added the app to the exclusion list. This means hat GPS Test will always be running in memory.

I went outside and followed the process I always do, and had instant GPS fix!

Obviously there's no magic here, and all that remains is to see how much battery does GPS Test when left always running.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
GPS Test is designed to speed up fix times. You actually don't have to go through all the trouble to modify the TaskManager though. One of the options in GPS Test is "Minimize" and it will disappear from site. I've actually used iNav to get somewhere, quit it, and them realized 30 minutes later that my GPS is still on because I forgot about GPS Test running hidden.

If you get into the habit of using this program, you will have no complaints about GPS lock times.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] wisniak:
It's funny, you know. I'ts become so annoying to have even a 1 minute delay in obtaining this darn GPS fix, like I navigate all day long.......

But that's the problem with being a perfectionist....

By the way, were you able to recover the BT stuff?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
I'll check on the BT CABs when I get home in just under 5 hours.

On a side note, I picked up an unlocked Touch Diamond from Best Buy on lunch today so I can test drive the TouchFLO 3D interface in preparation for the Fuze launching on AT&T.

It is a fully unlocked, unbranded Touch Diamond with US 3G (no T-Mobile). I need to tweak it before I pass full judgment, but the performance is pretty good so far.

I don't plan to keep it, this is just training me on what to expect from The Fuze. And... it's SO SMALL... My hands have trouble getting a good grip on it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] garyfunk:

Also, as my signature says, I'm currently testing a Touch Diamond, and the "Enable Bluetooth Explorer" setting doesn't survive a soft reset on that device either. I'm guessing this is the intended behavior.

I did a re-flash of HTC manilla v4 loaded and it seemed ok at first.

I began to mess around with manilla 2d desktops.. but after a few hours, the problems re-surfaced so I did "clear storage".

This didn't seem to rectify the issues (or maybe I just got better at looking for them?).

page 1 says adobe reader light is installed, but I can't seem to find it.

Keep up the good work!

I might try the same spl version that NATF is using and see if it behaves any better :)

3.29.Hard2 is a version of Jocky's HardSPL that was modified by cmonex to remove all the non-critical error codes that can cause a Kaiser to stop at the bootloader and no longer successfully load Windows Mobile.

Problem with 8 Gig Sim after Upgrade from 3.25 to 4

Todd,

It may be a bad sim, but after I upgraded from 3.25 to 4 my program cabs did not work after I reinstalled them to sim. It appears the cabs that are on the sim or being loaded to the sim get corrupted.

The problem occurred with my 8 Gig sim. I put my old 2 Gig sim in and it works OK. Loading cabs to memory also work.

Any ideas?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] wisniak:
Thank you, Todd.

You know, as Alice said, this BT stuff is curioser and curioser.

I reflashed the original AT&T WM6.1 ROM, and this tab is not there as well!

But it does appear in you Manila ROM ,as well as other ROMs I've tested in the past couple of days, such as the Hyperdragon III (and there it has even more tabs!)

I Also played all through yesterday with Hyperdragon III, which has also implemented Manila2D, and I didn't like it there either.

For me, Manila2D responsiveness is very bad (even with your ROMs). Among other things, I did not find it comfortable at all not to have the various tabs in one screen, but rather to have to scroll all the time in order to find the appropriate tab. And the inability to customize the screens is a nogo for me. Given, the graphics are impressive, but for me that's not the main thing.

I did find an application in XDA, called SECONDTODAY, which enables a workaround to the inability to add Today Plugins to the Manila home screen. Not a perfect (or elegant) solution, but it does provide the necessary functionality.

All in all, I do think your ROMs have been the most stable I've tested.

Thank you again for your efforts!

remapping TF H screen Soft Keys

Is there a way to remap "Phone" soft key on TF Home Screen to something else like "Contacts" or "HTC Action Screen" ( if you install such program )???? I tried to see if AdvancedConfig allows for this change, but was not able to do it.

Thanks.....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] wisniak:
Todd, do you HR using the keys combination, or do you do a ClearTemp (which supposedly is the same)?

Second, I see that you're now using a different HARD SPL (I saw the posts above). Which HARD SPL were you using before, and if you changed, what prompted you to do so? Have you encountered any benefits?

Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
From what I was reading in the Manilla 2D thread, the soft key mappings are hard coded into Manilla, and cannot be changed.

I always hard reset using the hardware keys, but yes, Clear Storage is the same thing.

I switched to 3.29.Hard2 from 3.56.Hard about 2 months ago because of all the posts I was reading about Kaisers getting stuck at the bootloader for no known reason. cmonex modified HardSPL to remove all of the BS error codes that could cause this, so I switched.

Hey NATF very nice ROM's thanks for the hard work!!

Are you thinking to release a new version soon?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NotATreoFan:
That's all.

That's the same download, but if you're not seeing a 2 on the end, it didn't flash correctly. Try reverting to HardSPL 1.xx, and then flashing 3.29.Hard2.

It's gonna be a little while. Since I'm migrating to the Fuze as soon as AT&T releases it, v5 will be my last ROM for the Kaiser/Tilt.

v4 is pretty much bug-free with the exception of little hiccups caused by Manilla2D and its ported applications.

Of course I will continue to support the NATF Kaiser Series after I move on, so it's not like I'm gonna close the thread an forget about everyone.
