0.88 beta testing report

Good job my man! Thank so much for your ROMs!

Those are the findings so far:

Bugs:

- Activesync Bluetooth bug still exists

- So far my time doesn't change (increase by 1 hour) after synchronization, I will check this after one day cycle though

- In Photos and Videos widget, when you press either the "Album" or "Slideshow" soft keys does nothing

- When I send an SMS, it is shown correctly at "Send items" folder, but there is also another copy at the "Inbox" folder...

Fixes:

- The dialer now supports my regional settings and I can use smart dialing!!:D

Will keep on updating

Thanks again man!;)

Where can I find the HTC Network Setup? I don't know the settings of my operator... I installed a version I found, but the country and operator list are blank!!! Any ideas?
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Hi,

1. I can't find the second fileexplorer file in Windows directory. But I will remove the icon in the startmenu. Should be no problem to set this up for anybody

2. Okay... :)

3. Strange. I implemented the additional font ... Will look.

I see ...

- I will use another activesync version in the next ROM. I hope this fixes the issue.

- You have to install this cab: http://rapidshare.com/files/153075386/04a_Album_2.0_1818.3829.4.cab I didn't include it in the ROm because its too big.

New version later today or tomorrow ...
[P3600 ROM Development] hulkman:
anyone with a solution???

HTC Network settings

Be patient and check at here man...

;)
[P3600 ROM Development] jetseter:
Thank you for the feedback Chalid!

I edited my previous report, so please also consider this bug:

- When I send an SMS, it is shown correctly at "Send items" folder, but there is also another copy at the "Inbox" folder...

Tnx!
[P3600 ROM Development] hulkman:
thanks m8... that did the trick! I wasn't able to send or receive mms...

VOIP Support

Hello Chalid.

Please, i ben askin allready. Can you tell me are you planning to put some VOIP support? Some great configuration tool, for SIP?

Btw, do you use VOIP?

And to all Trinity Users? Does VOIP works ok on TRINITY and our ROM?

I would really like to start using my Trinity in VOIP mode...
[P3600 ROM Development] xitulofica:
Youtube

Hello Chalid

I want to congratulate you, you are doing a phenomenal job!

Thank you very much for your great work and for your feedback for every stuff people ask you.

I'm having no problem at all with your ROM, it's just great.

I only want to ask you or anyone in this thread for a working cab for youtube. I tried one in a thread that goes something like youtubeqvga-official.cab or something, but it doesn't work. It installs, shoes the videos in the list, but when I try to open a video it says "Video cannot be played" or somehting.

So this is not a request for your ROM, chalid, it's perfect as it is, it's just a question for anyone to make youtube work.

Thank you very much again for your work.

bye
[P3600 ROM Development] cedarlake888:
i will try this one.

One problem is how to activate the Second arm in the clock?
[P3600 ROM Development] Matterhorn:
I use an app called CorePlayer. It has a dedicated search function for YouTube. You just need to select FLV under video playback. It plays back smooth as silk and with very good resolution on my Trinity.
[P3600 ROM Development] xitulofica:
Thank you, Matterhorn, for your suggestion.

I had CorePlayer installed once and it was a good program. I didn't keep up with it because I used it only a couple of times and there was no need to occupy memory.

It's good to know it works with YouTube. It's a good alternative.

But what I would like to do is to make that youtube program that comes with most manilla2D ROMS work with this ROM.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your help, I appreciate it. That is the spirit of XDA! ;)
[P3600 ROM Development] xitulofica:
Video Call?

Hello.

About this Minimal Dialer, I second Kamal on the compliments for this one. It's a great looking dialer and works fine. I'm using the version that has more to do with Manilla2D, that you can find here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=429179

The only problem is that is lacking Video call. I confess I don't use it regularly but I have a couple of people who sometimes video call me, so I need it...

I ask Chalid to have this in mind. I know there are a lot of people like me, they need the Video Call, even if it's only for a couple of times.

The Opal Dialer is also very very beautiful, didn't mind using it. But does it have Video Call?

Thanks

3g dialer

Dear Chalid

If I remember well, FinixNOver 3.5 black light ROM here has this layout of 3g dialer which worked very well. Maybe he is able to help.
[P3600 ROM Development] hulkman:
Yes... I used to have that ROM on my P3600 and it worked great...
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Sry guys. The next version will take a few more days to be finished. have to take care of some rl-work first ... ;-(
[P3600 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Totally understandable, thanks for update! :D
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Great Update, Chalid. Thanks.

Enjoying the increased free memory and good user speed. My new Kingston 4GB Micro SD (SDHC) Card is working fine with it. Tomtom works too. Superb Manila based Rom.

Thanks again,

Mattster.
[P3600 ROM Development] cedarlake888:
Very good ROM, simple and fast. Memory in acceptable level with Manila inside.

Thanks, and keep up the good work!

Regarding to the 3G dialer, I am using Kaiser HTC Touch 3G dialer, working perfectly. I attached the file for your guys if needed.
[P3600 ROM Development] arman68:
Seconded. If you can get it to work, without breaking GPS, that would be great.
[P3600 ROM Development] aleph01:
What? First time i hear something about breaking GPS while using Voip. Is that really true that there is something going on? And what have you meant by sayin "secondly".

Voip 4 the masses !!!!
[P3600 ROM Development] yuxiaoyun:
this rom is too clean ,even the office mobile i can not find,so would you please cook a rom with some necessary cabs ,such as office mobile ,pdf reader,flash player,etc.

that is what i need.

thanks

[P3600 ROM Development] Make My Day!:
LOL WWE version is always online its the 0.88 version
[P3600 ROM Development] rubbish.guy:
lol did u know that is a beta? :(
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Hi,

Soon :-)

I hope BT Active Sync will work. I will buy an USB Bluetooth dongle tomorrow to test it ...

Windows Media bug fixed already but 3G Opal Dialer still not working.

[P3600 ROM Development] RedBux:
Hi Chalid

Since your cooked rom base on tnyynt's roms, Hopefully you could spare sometime of yours to produce rom for HTC P3600i

Thanking you in advance

sorry, i post it in the wrong thread and i cannot delete it....
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Hi,

The newest versions aren't based on tnyyts ROM anymore... But I will look what I can do for P3600i users ... :)

[P3600 ROM Development] sprint:
I hope it will work!

I broke my MiniUSB jack. So... it's only way for Sync.
[P3600 ROM Development] philocritus:
does anyone have an idea if having too much sms on the inbox affects the available memory? with manilla on I have only 5mb available after startup... with any rom!

btw, does 0.88 have assertive memorymanagent?
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
1. Yes, too many SMS reduce available memory. That is why I deactivated the E-Mail and Message tab.

2. Assertive memorymanagement with Manila2D, not implemented with the Taskmanager.
[P3600 ROM Development] philocritus:
thanks... i have too many sms... around 9000 on inbox... i'll separate them in backup folders to save some memory and avoid ultra long restoring times!
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Looking very much forward to an update for this ROM.

Other Manila ROMS being produced still have, for my purposes, way too much cooked in. I 've seen my Program Memory shoot down to 7MB and all I was using was Internet Explorer!

They still seem to often lack basic tools like Schaps Advanced Configuration, Manila 2D Customizer, but are then filled up with stuff that not everyone will need (Office, Messenger, Youtube, etc.) Whilst Chalid's ROMs refresh with over 25MB free, and rarely fall to less than 20MB, other ROMS are staring with 20MB if you're lucky, and within 5 minutes are down to around 15MB.

I guess it's all personal preference and what you use your device for, but for basic stability and function, Chalid's ROMS are still way ahead.

Mattster
[P3600 ROM Development] rockuman_ex:
couldn't agree more.

that's why i strongly disagree when people starting to request chalid to include this and that in his rom.

chalid, please make your roms as clean as possible. :D

for those people that want to include this and that, please read the stickies. there are a lot of cabs that you can install after you flash your rom. :D
[P3600 ROM Development] literat:
I agree too. Clean and much RAM.
[P3600 ROM Development] Tai Chi:
Chalid we are still waiting for next edition (cmE 0.9g I think) :) . When we can expect any news about it?? Do you plan to cook that new version ??

I have one question about common manager. Is it possible to put 3G switcher instead Microsoft Direct Push?? Maybe some one of you knows how to change it??

Edit: Mattster thank you very much :-) Advanced Configuration Tool was that what I needed. Now 3G is visible on my common manager, and my life is easier and nicer :-).
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
There may be a better way but here's a solution I use:

Install Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool (it's free, do a search in XDA forum).

It has a Comm Manager settings change if you select menu on the bottom right. Do not attempt to reorder them. Just make sure the SIX controls you want are ticked (including 3G). You may not get the icons appearing but you'll be able to switch on / off 3G.

Mattster.
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Hey guys,

Still too less time on my hands and too much to do. It will take me a few more days to release the next version. I fixed the Windows Media full screen bug, but didn't have the time to test the active sync bluetooth problem yet.

[P3600 ROM Development] kabtv:
take your time cook !!!! ;)
[P3600 ROM Development] Make My Day!:
Hi can you create a .cab file to fix the Landscape bug? pls.
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
What landscape bug?
[P3600 ROM Development] xitulofica:
Hello Chalid

Take all the time you have to, don't need to apologize.

Have you decided about the dialer? You had some problems with that before. Is it a 2G or a 3G?

Thanks for all your hard and great work!

Bye
[P3600 ROM Development] rockuman_ex:
you can't set your screen to landscape for some reason.

... so i'm not the only one :D
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
The problem with landscape is, that manila2D simply doenst work in landscpae mode without changing the theme. Switching to landscape isn't a problem for me.
[P3600 ROM Development] rockuman_ex:
are we expecting new version this weekend? :D no pressure though :p
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Hi Chalid.

Best not cooking M2DC customiser into your next update. As I imagine you are aware, mpenguin keeps updating it every week! I personally had a few issues since installing the latest upgrade, so I went back to the prior.

I've been playing around with heavier manila ROMS in your absence, but always seem to eventually run into problems. So, surpise surprise... I'm reflashing this one again.

Looking forward to the update.

Thanks,

Mattster.
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Hey,

I didn't have the intention to cook M2D Config into the next version. In fact I already let it install on the first start after flashing the phone on the German version of my ROM. This way it can easily be updated ... ;)

bye
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Makes great sense. I think Manila ROMS have maybe come to a little wall now - I can't imagine how they will improve much over the next few months. Mpenguin and co. have found a way to edit the soft keys that appear on the Manila Home Widget, and he hopes to include that on the next update, but apart from that it seems to have gone a bit quiet.

No one seems to be producting light Manila Roms apart from you, which I find strange and a bit sad. Maybe great minds don't think alike!?

Have a good week.

Mattster.
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
This ROM is now on page 2 of the listings!?!?

Dude, don't make me learn German and have to install your other ROM!

Hope there's an update on the way soon. Manila has moved on fast in the last week, we need a new lite ROM to use it on!!!

Thanks,

Mattster
[P3600 ROM Development] rockuman_ex:
getting impatient eh? :D
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Yep! Like a dog waiting for a walk...
[P3600 ROM Development] sailer1983:
with manila 2D, my trinity even cannot play video properly!.

manila 2D is just crap for trinity.
[P3600 ROM Development] Make My Day!:
Yeah Htc Taskmanager 2.1 is even better for trinity!!!
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Impatience made me just try a new different ROM... it lasted one night, problems as usual.

Back to this great dependable rom AGAIN, but I really need an updated version with:

* updated Manila2D

* no M2DC (can be installed with cab to SD)

* no more active sync running when it wants

Chalid, is it money? I'll sell one of my kidneys!

Mattster.
[P3600 ROM Development] rockuman_ex:
i sense riots happening in non-distance future :D

Yes... can we have the new version PLEASE!!!
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
riots.... lol. And I just know YOU would be the one who passes me a molotov cocktail to throw!

No, it's just, I seem to be having the same issues over and over again with other ROMS:

* sd card suddenly gets 80% wiped and files corrupted

* tomtom fails to install (memory violation or something)

* htc photo finger gesture doesn't work

* battery consumption too high

* too many applications that I really don't need

NONE of these have I experienced with Chalid's ROM. The only hang up I got at th emoment is some of the newer M2 themes do not work well with the Manila2D version cooked into this ROM. They freeze when you touch the message widget. So, I disable the message widget. Also, the M2DC version on this is now old and needs leaving out. Oh, and active sync starts running by itself, even though the device is not connected to the pc.

Apart from that, it's a great light Manila ROM with a memory consumption that never goes over 58%!

Mattster.
[P3600 ROM Development] rockuman_ex:
yes chalid, i think your new version is long over due :(

weekend after weekend i waited patiently... :(
[P3600 ROM Development] Make My Day!:

[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Hey,

No of course not. It's just that my spare time shrinked to zero at the moment. I have already fixed the windows media player bug and included the new md2 config version with an afterwards installation. But there is a good chance the active sync bluetooth problem still exists, since I can't test it. Active Sync killer doens't kick in like it should do - sometimes it cloeses AS sometimes it dows nothing.

If you (all) prefer this to be 0.89 beta I will release it, but I actually wanted the next version to be more or less bugfree.

bye
[P3600 ROM Development] Matterhorn:
I'm pretty sure that the active sync bluetooth problem is fixed with the small app called BTtools. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=428448&highlight=bttools post #7.

I couldn't get activesync through BT to work on mine until I installed BTTools. When you pair the device select advanced and the BTTools window pops up and then check Activesync and save it. It works perfectly for me, anyway it is worth a try :-)
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Up to you Chalid. I appreciate this is all done in your free time! It's just our way to show how much we value your work!

Personally, I'd love an 0.89 beta with no M2DC cooked in, but it's totally up to you.

You could always post a "work still to do" list under it.

UPDATE:

Just read your latest post! A "Quick and Dirty" version, perfect!

Mattster.
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Thanks, seems to be working. At least I get the confirmation by running RasTool.

I just finished 0.9 with XIP and Sys 20924. But I got one problem: G'Relocing the modules doens't seem to work. that means I am forced to use the built in Office, Remote desktop and windows live. This has no negative effects on the memory consumption, but reduces available storage by ~6mb. Therefore I am releasing this version as "0.9 beta normal" and will update the light version when I am able to remove the built in programs.

Uploading the version right now. Please be aware this is a "qucik and dirty" hack. I didn't have the time to test this as long as the other versions. So please do a backup of all your files. (Though I flashed ~10 times without any problems.)
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Download in the first post.

Please notice, that this version is NOT a light version. I have problems remove Office, Remote Desktop and Windows Live with the new SYS. However, this will only reduce the available storage memory, not the free program memory if you aren't using this programs.

The Bluetooth-Bug should be fixed with the hint from Matterhorn.

You will also notice slightly increased free program memory due the new XIP and SYS.
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
"Changelog 0.9 beta:

- Fixed titlebar popup at system start

- Port to SYS 20924

- Port to XIP 20924

- Fixed Bluetooth Active Sync bug (please confirm)

- M2D Config updated and now is updateable"

Looking good!

Downloading it as we speak... Thanks Chalid.
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Problem 1

The cabs below are not installing for some reason. I just getting a spinning icon and no progress:

HTCAlbum.cab

SecondToday

Maybe, it's because they have to install on device? I say this because all the ones that have installed ok (see below) all go onto sd card:

Schaps advanced config, Today agenda, Capsure...)

SOLUTION

I deleted the original cabs on my sd card and then transferred them again from my pc. Installation now successful.

Problem 2

Following the flash, SMS Messages are now empty. Normally, you see current inbox and anything saved onto sd card.
[P3600 ROM Development] pedro_v:
Hi, thanks for this version !!

I find a bug, in manila bar, dont work "Internet", i push but nothing happen.

[P3600 ROM Development] phat01:
ei ei nice rom you got here..

I'm going to try this now, hear from me soon :D

Btw, instead of using Manila2d ( Bec. of the known bugs) I'll try to use FEWidgets, if this thing works I'll let you know :D

nice rom cheers mate :cool:

i install gps n other software to my sd..

after installed i go to file explorer to paste my map.. there nothing in there just empty folder with title Program File.. nothing there.. what just happen?

problem solved...

Did it work with the last version?

You're right. This is odd ... I will check this out.

sms/mms view problem...

similar problem, sms message only viewable from m2d screen, but not able to view message details..
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
seems to be a problem with the threaded sms view. will deactivate this for the next version.
[P3600 ROM Development] callmepaper:
yeap, disabling the threaded sms view will solved the problem, but it will be single view. nonetheless, rom is fast and stable. like it much.
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Yes, in last version there was no need to delete then repaste "device installing" cabs onto storage card.

It's fine now that I've done that. I don't know if anyone else has experienced this. I'd ignore it Chalid, unless anyone else has the same problem.

Mattster.
[P3600 ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
So, this ROM for me seems to be working great so far.

It's ideal for users who do not have the need to run any memory demanding 3rd party software, but do want to be able to enjoy Manila2D and its customization possibilities.

The cooked in M2DC customizer is a great part of the update! For those of you who don't know yet, you can now change the softkeys on Manila Home to more or less whatever you want. I use one for Second Today (opens new today page onto whichyou can place plugins) and the other for a direct link to Messaging. You can also modify the Manila header text. I've put my phone number there in case I leave my phon esomewhere!

Great work! Thanks a million Chalid.

Hi DigitaLDNA.

This disappearance of files on sd card is becoming quite common. Do you know or suspect what caused it? How did you fix it?

May we have a rom containing the newest verison of Manila2D?

For ur next release :)

My noob eng ser
[P3600 ROM Development] chalid:
Is there actually a difference in any of the versions? The changelogs only state, that installationsfiles changed and some compatibility issues were solved - no new features or anything.
[P3600 ROM Development] phat01:
Great ROM but 1 thing I noticed, the ROM doesn't support multi-tasking activity i.e. playing solitaire while listening to music. Beyond than this everything works fine ;)

And for Mattster_spv I've got 1 question, how did you change the manila 2d to the one you've posted yesterday? thanks and regards
[P3600 ROM Development] DigitaLDNA:
i agreed with you chalid...

and i hope your next release include 3G dialer...

other than that great fast and stable rom for me :)

Works on P3600i

Hi chalid, congrats on this light and fast ROM. I have tested it on the P3600i and apart from the threaded SMS problem, the rest seems to work well.

Looking forward to your non-beta cmE0.9 ROM.

Thanks and best regards!
[P3600 ROM Development] callmepaper:
yeap, ROM is lite and fast. but it seems all his ROMs are BETA releases :D
[P3600 ROM Development] joncgde2:
Hi Chalid

thanks for making SUCH a

great ROM

- I just came across this ROM today and I must say it really is fantastic... thankyou :)

As for the

P3600i

issue... I am able to hex edit the ROMs you release now and make them available for P3600i users, so that's a good thing (I'm using it on a P3600i now)

Two bugs:

1. Activesync keeps opening on its own - I know you are aware of this, I just thought I'd mention it anyway... I'm running 0.9

2. With Manilla, it is not possible to remove the 'People' tab - when doing this, the tabs on the home screen disappear - this only happens with the People tab, so unfortunately this MUST be kept on.

Other than that, no real issues so far - thanks mate :)

P.S. I know you like a clean ROM, but might you consider:

1. Cooking in a nice dialer? The PDG TouchFLO dialer would look great with your skin - there is a screenshot here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=429179
