Try flashing the "stock" rom. there is one that is stripped (no radio rom). The big storage roms need a stock flash before flashing to a big storage.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] luiggi:
I love your ROM

Excelent ROM Joshkoss, this is what I was looking for since WM 6.1 came up.

Thanks a lot

I thought it would be interesting to add a "Halloween" ring tone.

Here's what I found looking over the 'net

Evil Laugh
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
thanks!! U rock downloading now
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] skippyd:
Can you put the opal volume control in this rom or do you have the cab for it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
I can try and add it back, it was causing issues when added before.. I'll do some final testing tonight and we'll see.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oweida:
Are we expecting the new Release ??

JoshKoss, Hi.

Thanx for ur great work.

thanx
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
V10 final 20759 will be done tonight!! and then V11 20924 will be ported shortly after.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] diegolaz:
wow!! thanks for all the hard work!!!!!

are this a continuation of the manilla roms or "parallel" releases?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
this is considered my non manilla2d releases, but i will update manilla2d soon!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:

Does it have You Tube :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
it has everything you can think of!!! ;) a very well packaged rom if i may say so.

Happy halloween!!

oh to answer you question YES.

Captin, thanks for the ftp space... Very useful!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Capt Fiero:
Life recently has not left a bunch of expendable cash recently, so I am just glad to be able to help the Chefs and members of XDA with some spare storage. I can't wait to try the new one out. I hope this one will be a long lasting one. So far this Halloween rom really does not have any real bugs in it. Only bug I had with it was the Email button would not launch messaging. Granted that might be an issue with my phone. (Ya know the 2 top buttons, one for Messaging and side is Internet)

Just as odd question about rom cooking.

When you "cook in an app" can you cook in apps you own?

Ya know thinking about this I don't think it can even be done. There are several programs that I install into my phone and configure RIGHT OFF THE BAT. Like my GPS program, however because I always install it to the storage card, I don't think it is really part of the rom. The install must just create the directory in the rom and tell it to point to the card? In that case I just answered my question. LOL.

Maybe I should take the time to look into your cooking and start giving it a shot. I make custom Windows XP installs all the time for people.

I should start playing with this and see what I can do.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
Dude i totally understand on the money part!! i've got a family of three kids and a wife and have my one income!! this is my hobby and i love it!! Your space is totally appreciated. You should add a donate button via paypal.

On the cooking part, just let me know and i'll send you some files and you can get started.,. it's sorta easy, but tedious and somtimes hard.. lots of trial and error. ;) usually using package convertor i can convert a cab into a package to cook into a rom so lemme know if i can help you with that. ;)

Peace!!

Great rom.. but !!

Joshkoss I'm thankful for you for this great rom but there is an issue with the FONT of the rom .. I'm using Arabizer ( Arabic Language Programme ) and some writings are presented by small questions marks within small squares instead of being correctly written in arabic ! Even I can't write in arabic any more especially in the windows applications like " New messege " !!!!

So is there any way to change the font of the windows ???

Another silly question, How can I hack the registery to enable the windows media player to work while the device is in the Standby mode ??

Thanx
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RxenDrav:
try to use LITE VERSION ROM..Im sure it will help....im using Arabizer too.....but im not trying yet..currently using PDACornerV27 RBSN....busy in studying...my exam next week..:D

am i rite?...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
Dude! I'm sorry, lemme cook a version with normal windows mobile fonts verses callibri that comes with my rom. maybe this will assist you? I'm not sure on the reg hack for media player.. good question.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oweida:
Don't be sorry !! You are Great..

Thanx for cooking it again and I'm the one sorry for annoying you...BTW when I write a message in arabic it appears in the editor as small Q. markes inside small boxes but when I save it into the draft folder and open it again it appears correclty but once I click edit it returns back into the funniest script again... I'm sure it has something to do with the windows font's and its size !!

Thanx JoshKoss and you're appreciated for this effort.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] peterson65:
on the ie home page if i click on favorites it opens up file explorer? i can get the favorites by the bottom of the screen soft key
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oweida:
?????????????

Weird !!!

I'm also busy with the next week Midcoarse Psychiatry Exam !!!

I think we have alot of things in common rather than gust an Arabizer :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] burkay:
Hi all,

is the power bug and overuse of cpu fixed in this version? I mean, does anybody observer a true performance difference when using the 10th version? I was having serious slow downs especially with games in previous versions.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
when i installed batterystatus it hovered around 58-60 ma. and cpu was at 0-1

would you mind testing and letting us know.. i'm sorta immune to high power drain as i use a extended battery ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ov2rey:
i got a problem is that.. i keep getting hardreset on this rom..

i ever try flash back to the OEM rom still the same..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
I've been running it for two days dude no issues here!! flash oem rom, soft reset, hard reset, flash my rom, hard reset, and go!! thats how i do it ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sutan:
it is so sad that it doesn't support chinese charactis

I love your rom so much, the flash picture and that beautiful tiny western font, but unfortunetly, i have to give up your rom, coz that is not support chinese charactis, I am chinese, I need to communicate with other around me; beside English, Chinese is my native language, in my case, Chinese support is essential....

thanks you for your contribution to Hermes rom, sharing with us;

hope see your more roms coming over ....

alex
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
And thank you so much for trying it!!! I would like to create a rom without callibri font added in this one and see if it fixes this.. tonight or tomorrow.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kornsycle:
All is good here except I have a white line across the top 3g v10 Final ....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ov2rey:
i try the same way as you said..

still got problem with this build 20759....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
that is your battery level! ;) it is a feature on wktask!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kornsycle:
Kewl thanks for the heads up I found it in the settings right after I posted that lol
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joecruz:
Thanks so much for doing the 3g video dialer version!! I'm gonna try it out now
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
sweet dude!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] soregg:
Hi Josh.

I got a similar case here, but I cannot display chinese font after I installed the font patch. I think we both are with the same issue. however, may be I have some hints for it.

When I use your great Manilla2D ROM and installed the chinese font, I cannot see the chinese characters too. But I fixed the case by below registry.... hope it would tell us something.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink]

"HelveticaNeue LT 35 Thin"="\\Windows\\msjh.ttf,msjh"

"HelveticaNeue LT 55 Roman"="\\Windows\\msjh.ttf,msjh"

"DisableFarEastWordBreak"=dword:00000000
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
Thanks for the info, I'll search my rgu's and see what i can do there.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oweida:
I'm Really A Stupid

Joshkoss,, thanx and you don't need to recook your lovely rom.

I have SKtools by which I changed the Windows fonts to Tahoma and it worked :D .

No problems at all, but as usual I do have a question ( it seems as a newbie one :p )..

Will my device be faster, stable and more responsive when I cook my apps within the rom OR when I install them in a lite version of the rom ??

Thanx in advance..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
depends, if the apps install to the windows directory then cooking them in will be waaaay faster..

if the apps install to program files or other locations you should be fine installing them without losing speed.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] antonof:
Goodbye

joshkoss and all the other cooks here I just wanna say thank you for all your beautiful roms you make. Keep up the good work. For me it is a time to move on. I said goodbye to my old fellow Hermes and hopefully I will all see you again in another section of xda-dev called Diamond. :cool:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oweida:
almost 40 MB

Most of my apps are installed in the Device not in the storage card..

I mean more than 40 mb.

If I wanna cook them with ur rom, what is the simplest way to do it ??

Or can you refer me to a Cooking related thread from which I can learn more .... thanx
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] davey33:
sounds good give it a try 2nite:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] matrix70:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sapphire_pro:
Hey,

could anyone tell me whats included in the Light RBSN 3G ROM?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
HTC Youtube, HTC Album+video playback, halloween skin, dialer, i think it has 3 games, file explorer. a couple tools. no opera
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sapphire_pro:
Ia there also a "real" naked version available?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
I can make one for you.. how stripped.. very very stripped?? like old fashioned stripped ;) like .net and thats it?? :) I'll make one on the way home from work and upload for you. :) like 2g or 3g?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ngagephone:
WOW

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ngagephone:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:

thanx verry much love the rom there was just them little probs for me hope you can do it with 3g normal storage no large taskbar and no wktask thing any way thanx and looking forword to it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sapphire_pro:
Hey thats would be perfect. I only need a very very naked 3G ROM without any OEM Apps except:

NET 3.5, CRC Device Update, "normal" File Explorer, Windows Media Player and I think thats all.

Comm Manager and Camera software... I Can do for my own.

Thanks for your help!

P.S. Is it a 20759 Build then?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] burkay:
hey josh,

testing the latest build and so far so good. seems like you overcame the power and cpu use problems. everything seems to be much more responsive now. However, I agree with one of my fellow forum members that this htc large title bar thing is a complete waste. It is way slower than the regular volume settings. Now, as you can already tell I am a bit of a speed freak. I don't mind sacrificing looks for speed. And then, htc large title bar doesn't look good at all. So why do you keep it in your roms? of course it is your taste, but really, why?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
wow thats naked!!!

P.S. sure :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
to be honest!! i haven't had time to rip it out!! it will take some rgu editing, testing more editing, testing, I'll get to it i'm not sure if i like it also..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sapphire_pro:
But dont forget, Iam a noob on this topic.

I only search for a naked ROM whicj I can flash and where I can decide which App i want to install and which not.

So the ROM must be "flashable", that means that I do not want to cook anything.

I only need a naked 20759 Build with the NET etc. included.

After that I would install my Apps from the Storage Card like Pocket RAR etc.

Do you know what I mean?

I ask because I want to avoid that you make ROM for me which I cant use because of any special knowledge I need after the flash.

Sorry for my bad English;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
I totally understand sir, Not a problem!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ngagephone:
yes same here i like speed but i love to have a blank ext rom so i can put all my apps and settings in there. and that wktask think thats what its called is nice but it has to much it feels bulky i would rather have no taskmanager on and if i find 1 i like i can add it to the ext rom.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sapphire_pro:
OK then I will wait.

Do you think that you can finish the ROM today?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ngagephone:
yes can we have today and will you be uploading to the forum plz.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sapphire_pro:
Another Question:

Today I tried your Halloween ROM and this ROM is amazingly fast.

It is possible to have the same performance with "my" naked version?

Which tweaks do you includes?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oweida:
Only I can prepare a scrambled egg !!

Can you please upload a detailed txt file with your kitchen about ROM cooking and how can I made OEM packages from my cabs...

I tried cooking once when I had a Hemilaya device but I didn't succeed !! :o

Thank Dude big kisses for your kids..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mikehippe:
Do you have any idea how long it takes to cook a ROM? Especially since his is doing it for free, you need to be patient. He'll upload it when he is done with it.....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zocster:
lol true, knowing josh tho he is here to please :D so he will try to get it out ASAP
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sapphire_pro:

I will wait until he is finished;)

In regard to the Naked ROM I would like to have the "normal" status BAR (Network, Battery, System and Ring Sound) without any Color.

Is that possible?

Another thing would be your great Icons but this is not so important.:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] matrix70:
i josh! after about 2 day of your rom i have found 2 bug that are fondamental for me... when create sms in the address line i don't wont type the name, after press menu to check the name and after choose ..it's too long. in my last rom i choose directly fro the line wich contcact iwould..and the second..in the hw keyboard all accented letters don,t work with function+ space...adn this is absolutly not accetable for me, becausemy work request minumm 20-30 sms per days....

i think i must come back to crc 13 rom...but i would like to take your because are very very fast and complete.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Oweida:
Too Slow

Don't get confused I'm talking about Dvha79_ddt latest rom ( 20924)..

Can you Sir. Joshkoss cook a rom with applications of both ( that are included in ur current rom and that are in his rom + MMS ) ???

Two things bother my about his rom :-

1- Slowliness in starting up ( after soft reset).

2- Slowliness in opening Windows directory.

BTW,,, I need more Extra storage space if it possible.

Lastly where can I find the cab of the 3G dialer of your current rom ??

Thanx :D

Battery issue

Very fast and good lokking rom 2g version lite but on the that screw me very much is bettery icon and bettery meter i did not show correct % first on 90% when i restart it on 80% after 20 minutes it still on 80% but when i restart some time it on 74 % please some on help i getting bored of it
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Capt Fiero:
Well just a pop in post update I have been running this rom for a couple days and just when I thought I had it perfect it froze. Not really sure why, it would not wake up from stand-by. I tried a soft reset first and it would not go past the boot screen. I popped the battery out let it sit for a few Min's then tried to get it to restart, it finally came back on, but all my contacts were gone and 1/2 the programs shortcuts no longer worked. I went ahead and re-flashed the rom and am now installing one program at a time then I am going to use it for a few days and install a couple more programs and see how it goes. I have gotten pretty good about rebuilding my phone after a flash. So far yours is the best functional rom I have used. So I don't plan to quit using them any time soon.

Oh that new wtask thing that runs in the top, it exactly what the Hermes needed. I love it. Although the phone DID freeze up shortly after I was tweaking the settings in that app. I really hope that is not the app that caused the issue.

Have a good one and take car.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
Dude sorry to hear that, and thanks totally for the feedbacks, you got the hard reset bug it sounds, better get that oem rom out! ;) I did that first and haven't had a HR yet going on 3 days :)

najib

i am using v10final lite excelent rom but i have bettery meter issue the bettery percentage hangs when i restart it goes e.g from 90 to 40 and then restart again it goes from 40 to 60 please help
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
wow thats wacked i didn't get that with the full.. hmm it may be because of the large title bar.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] najib82:
Najib

i mean my battery meter did not respond well in every restart it gives another percentage

without restart it donot gose up or down remain same all time

it must be because of opal dialer because in v25 when i install opal dialer the battery meter hangs

i only want to know what is connection of opal dialer and battery icon and meter

Thanks like your roms very much

Hey Josh,

So, is this going to turn into you "official" non manilla build?

It seems to be an awesome rom, I'd really like to see it stick around!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
totally is dude.. workin on a V11 now!! 20924! and bugs in last 2 pages fixed
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boog:
Sweet! I'm getting good at reflashing, and getting everything all set back up! lol

I'll be looking forward to seeing it!

But out of curiosity, could we get a list of included programs? That way it's easier to set up the UC stuff, to make sure something isn't getting installed twice.

Josh, thanks for all the work on this halloween edition, I really like it. Its my first ROM on the Hermes I picked up after having my Tilt stolen 2 months ago...:eek:

I'm having a weird problem with my SMS messages which I havent seen anyone with this ROM having. Right now, I see on the today screen I have 3 unread messages. When I go to messages, there are NONE- the entire mailbox (inbox, outbox, sent) is empty! Also, when I send a text, it sends it to ME as well, and I cannot seem to recieve a text.. (as I said, the box is empty.) Any ideas? Never had this problem w/ the Kaiser roms, so I'm stumped...
