Thanks, you pointed me in the right direction, selecting one of my mp3 songs as a ringtone got me out of this situation, now the phone rings!!

Now I just need to find a decent mp3 sound. :)

Pre8 has been excellent till now. I am using it since yesterday and no problem at all. is there any way to increase fonts for all calls, contacts etc display in dialer pad.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] prithvi64:
After every ROM updation, if call information including calender, tasks, contacts are restored through pimbackup, then at the time of syncing with laptop, calenders, contacts and tasks are created with double entry. even SPB backup has not been a smooth process for recovering all previous information. I usually syn diamond just before rom updation and take backup call details and sms through pimbackup. after rom updation, it is synced with laptop for contacts, calenders, tasks and email (outlook) and restore call details, sms through pimbackup.

Is it a right process or there is sme more conveient.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] orchis:
Also I encountered these double entries with the automatic restore function + AS in previous versions (haven't flashed the last ROM yet). Moreover, the doubled calender events had two starting times separated by the time zone correction. Personally, I prefer to use only AS for backups so that my PC and phone calenders sync.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] vogon1:
Yep, solved it for me too.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] macoy:
problem solved. found out that "do not restore anything with pimbackup started by the wizard during the first reset, don't know what went wrong, maybe some system settings are not settle yet at that point and coz problems".... just cancle it, reset again, and I use the old provision (coz the new one doesn't have China), run connection setup(this may not be necessory, coz i got a sms before doing that), reset, then use pimbackup to retore and everything is back to normal:)

suiller, kudos for your work! you definitely did reinvent the "wheel" a bit ;)

Great rom!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
hmm... interesting, I'll try a couple of combination these weekend, anyway I'm really near to replace pimbackup with our own (trough mortscript no external app needed) backup system, but I've to make some deep tests before publish

EDIT: forgot to mention also about the trouble related to provision database that of course aren't all equals... and depending by base rom some countries are included while other aren't & vice-versa when changing base rom, trying another provision.zip file (older) many times solve troubles... I published between extra cabs repository also the old provision.zip file from 1.97, I think it could be a good idea to publish them all

Help!

Guys, I'm having a problem! I downloaded pre8 ROM, copied to my internal storage, started the update, it goes to almost 100% and then it hangs there. I waited about 20 minutes but nothing else happens. When I restart, it says update error. I try updating again, again it hangs close to finish. I cannot use Custom RUU because the computer does not see the phone now, and i cannot try another ROM because this is the only ROM on the Internal Storage. I'm stuck, can anyone help?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
sure friend don't worry... nothing dangerous happened, read below:

1. reset your device while keeping pressed ONLY vol-down button

2. a 3 color stripes figure will appear... this is the boot loader

3. connect the device to your PC trough the cable & wait some seconds (just in case your pc is a bit slow to load needed drivers)

4. use customRUU to flash whatever you want

5. finish :D

anyway... you should have a no-signed hardspl to install this rom, but it's really strange that it stops at 100%, try to re-copy or better re-download & then re-copy the rom in your storage... here to find a good HARDLY tested hardspl (I suggest the ver 1.93... is newer)

bye,

davide
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] zoltar99:
Hi suiller, thanks for the reply. The error code i get on the 3 colour screen is PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVD v0x32. I did everything you said, but I get an error 240: FILE OPEN in CustomRUU: The update utility cannot open the requested file. please check your update utility.

And I do have a no signed hard spl.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ksekhar:
did you rename .nbh file from diamimg.nbh to RUU_signed.nbh before flashing using customRUU?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
right friend... I forgot to mention :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] zoltar99:
Ah, missed that, updating now, thank you ever so much!

Done it, I now have a working phone again! I will give your ROM a try now.

Thank you once again, suiller! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
never mind friend, a big thx also to friend above... I forgot a fundamental step :D ...anyway remember always that till you have a working boot loader you can flash/recover whatever you want ;)

Restoring email settings?

Hi,

I have been using this ROM for a few months now (all latest versions) and is is great. However, when I restore using PIMbackup, it doesnt recreate my email accounts (I guess it is not intended to do so).

Is there any backup software that will recreate the email account settings, or is this simply a case of retyong them in on each upgrade / hard reset?

Thanks

Gary
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
OK, today is a very nice day :D

even if I'm still making some tests to have a full working script we are very near to definitively replace pimbackup software with a total automatic backup procedure... this by making a "screenshoot" of that 2 files where all contacts/logs/sms (& perhaps mms) are stored: PIM.VOL & CEMAIL.VOL

the logic was/is this:

as you know every night a script at 4.00AM is called to recover automatically some wasted ram, then at 4.30AM is called the scheduled process to make the backup trough pimbackup software...

and now the logic will be instead:

pimbackup is replaced (still present as app) by a script that is called before calling the night auto-recovery procedure, closing tmail.exe process is possible to keep a safe copy of both pim.vol & cemail.vol files... then tmail will restart automatically when needed (for ex by receiving a sms or by making a new one)

the script stores the 2 VOL files always under \Internal Storage\Backup and Restore\pimbackup calling them with the name of the weekday, plus a copy called "today" (the current & last valid copy)

so for ex after some days we will have: Monday.pim.vol + Monday.cemail.vol + today.pim.vol + today.cemail.vol & again... Tuesday.pim.vol... etc...

after a hard-reset or a rom upgrade the 1st installation menu, if will detect the existence of today.*something*, will ask to restore the last valid vol backup... as it should be the last one made in the early morning (at 3.00AM)

so the system after installing all cabs & restoring the vol files (always if found) will reset (normal behavior) & soon it boots (works only before loading manila) it will replace both VOL files & reboot itself to make the system catch the replaced files

as final stage we will find the EXACT copy (untouched) of our 2 VOL files... in these files as mentioned above are stored all the stuff we need

this "new" procedure has the BIG advantage that the restore step is done automatically

& of course we always have the whole week backup-set,

so you flash/upgrade the rom & wait it finishes

:cool:

notes: for have a good backup tmail.exe must be closed, for have a good restore instead those 2 files must be replaced before manila loads & soon reboot the system

bye,

Hi Suiller,

many thx for the new pre 8. I installed it yesterday and found out some things, which I cant understand.

Normally, when I am driving in my car I am running the media player and Tom Tom simultan via my BT car radio. The thing now is, when you minimize one of those 2 progs, it will be shut down, instead of being minimized. I hit the HOME Button, like always. In older version it worked just fine.

The same happens, when I use IMPlus chat a liitle and wanna work in my contacts for example. I hit the HOME Button, do my work and wanna get back to IMPlus, but its closed for good.

Another thing: I installed Opera from your kitchen and it wont do landscape. My guess is, I have to implement it into Gsensor?

Pls have look at it. (I am using the pre8 with medium speed profile and the RAM disk)

Suiller, for your next version could you include the hack to record phone calls?

You're probably already aware but some guy in the blackstone forum have found a way to get this working without using the speaker phone.

Lets not making him go thru 140 posts to figure out where the actual cab file is :)

here it is:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3159366&postcount=140

Edit: it still has lot of issues. May be we should use it as a cab instead of forcing it on everyone...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] stanislav.bebej:
I agree. Let's have a "standard, to all convenient" ROM and if you want something special, install it by your self. There is the cab auto installation feature, so just use it. Recommending an application is OK, but why do you want to have it included in ROM? By the way, the 3rd party applications are the source of many problems. Who would debug that, eh?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] peron:
Hey I'm only suggesting, Suiller can do what he wants with his ROM.

Do you want to bet that within a few days all cooked roms will have this software in it?

Why? Because it is made by HTC and it is a basic function that the phone should have had from the very beginning.

Now go find somebody else to have a row with.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] goRt:
Hi Davide,

While I appreciate your efforts, going down this route will 'tie' people into your ROMs, unless the MORTscript is available for people to restore elsewhere.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
you are right... also for this reason I'll leave the user the possibility to choose between "internal backup method" or trough standard pimbackup software (old way)

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
dear friend,

1st default behavior when tap on X is to close the app instead of iconify it, to change this you should include this line in your tweakPers script: RegWriteDWord("HKCU","\Software\HTC\TaskManager","EnableTapAndHold",1)

2nd Opera must enabled into rotation list, you yet have all the necessary software (flip-it) preinstalled, so like above just add this line in your tweakPers: RegWriteDWord("HKLM","\Software\flip\gsen\exclude","Opera",11)

let me know if something doesn't work :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
hmm... errors or some "signals" ??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
thx friend for noticing this new useful app, you are right it should be a basic application but it's not safe at 100% (for ex like Opera) so it will provided as extra cab, as you noticed many things were get out as extra cab

thx for help... I have just 2 eyes & helping me like this is very appreciated :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cabania:
1) No sign of the data connection icon (that little G or 3G over signal bars)

2) Pop up message titled Cannot Connect saying "Canot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection ettings, tap Settings"
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
hmm... I suppose you have yet configured your connection trough the connection setup application.. isn't it?? anyway are you able to surf for ex??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ksekhar:
Did you download configuration settings after you flash your device? It doesnt happen by default with Dia Duit's ROM's (i donno why).

To confirm that just go to settings->connections->connections and see what is the name of connection you are using (in my case it shows as Telenor WAP or Telenor Streaming).

if it doesnot show anything that means you havent download configuration settings or there is some problem with already downloaded one.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ksekhar:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
this is another annoying trouble... I think it should a good idea to provide the connection setup application as extra cab (also uninstallable)... this because some can take the correct settings with the last one, other can't but they were able with the "old" one provided in 2.00 rom & other aren't able to work with both & have to re-install the "old" one provided with 1.96/97 roms... very strange :confused: (personally for me ALL have always worked at 1st time)

it could be useful to make different cabs for the different connection setup divided by rom ver, so for ex we can have ConnSetup203.cab or ConnSetup200.cab or ConnSetup197.cab... etc... or is it an insane idea??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cabania:
Aha! I did now a set up connecting including my operator and voila! It works!

Bluetooth file corrupt

Hi Davide,

strange things happen with the bluetooth file transfer. I create an archive (.rar) on my PC. I can unpack it correctly on PC. I send it to Diamond (via bluetooth) and try to unpack it using PocketRAR - it says "File corrupted, bad CRC". When I send it back to PC using bluetooth, the same - "File corrupted". When I do the same process using Wifi (ftp transfer using TotalCommander), the archive is OK and can be unpacked both in Diamond and in PC.

What can cause the archive corruption during transmition? Anyone else having this issue?

So far great ROM, sometimes it doesn't play sounds. After soft reset all OK for a while. I'm using Windows default settings profile.

Thank you in advance, Stano.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ksekhar:
i tried transferring cab and nbh files and they all worked fine. Never tried rar. it could be problem with pocket rar. (cab is also similar to compressed rar file)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] suiller:
I tried with a zip file & all seem OK... what do you mean that does not play sound?? the ringtone??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] stanislav.bebej:
I think it can’t be the PocketRar ‘cause even WinRar isn't able to unpack it when sent rar to Diamond and again back to PC (just to Diamond and back using Bluetooth both ways). I also tried other rar file and no problem. With yet another one the problem was there again. So it just happens :-).

I checked the file size and it was a bit smaller (original file in PC 409 KB, 401 in Diamond) with the corrupted rars. It seems like bluetooth didn't sent all the data.

Today I'm going to reflash using "insane" settings, will see if something changes.

To Davide: I meant the ring tone. I have to soft reset Diamond once a day in order to hear the sms sound or the ring tone. After reset, all OK.

Thanx for help.

hi all, some fresh news for upcoming pre09 (still testing):

internal backup method works, it backups contacts/sms/logs/etc... it should backup mms too... anyway will be still available the "classic" way trough pimbackup software, at the 1st "installation menu" the system will ask which procedure it should use (it will remember of course for next upgrades/flash); the internal method require a soft reset, so planning internal backup method will re-boot automatically the device at 3.00AM to make the backup, instead with the classic way the system wont rebooted + auto ram recovery procedure will be called before making the backup

always regard the backup (classic way, pimbackup software) was reported that in some circumstances the restore procedure wont restore in the right way... or better the restoration was good only if the restore is made after the installation menu (3rd boot), I suppose this happens because some reg entries & file config are written at the 1st program run but becomes ready at the 2nd run, so the program will be called on 1st boot & soon closed (the user wont see anything) & then called normally on 1st menu installation :) this should solve the trouble described (still must tested but it should work)

solved trouble related to default ring-tone, now is possible to change in the classic way (trough settings/sounds/etc...)

removed connection setup app, now available as extra cab, in particular I made 2 cabs: the 1st from 2.00 rom & the 2nd from the latest 2.03 rom, this because some countries are only listed in the 2.00 database & other are only listed in the 2.03 DB, of course try/find your best & as any other normal cab put it in your CAB folder (must installed into main memory); of course it will act as a normal cab so it will be uninstallable too (delete after configuration to gain some free space if needed)

due to a reported "need" for installing particular app in some specific order, I added 2 CAB folders called "Cab2" & "Cabi2"; so the final structure is CAB (with inside CABi) & CAB2 (with inside CABi2), the system will process cabs in this order: CAB => CAB2 => CABi => CABi2 so now is possible to have a full cab installation control

bye & thank you all 4 the great support/help,
