SUGGESTION: (Optionally) De-Activate HTC Weather by default

Love the ROM. Thanks guys. Haven't loaded latest yet but soon will.

It seems to me that there are a lot of people complaining about battery life with the Rose ROMs. My personal experience is that battery life was bad until I stopped the HTC Weather app from starting up automatically.

I don't have a data plan (so pay as I go for GPRS) so I do not configure my Connection settings to allow automatic connection to the internet. I leave them such that I have to change the "connects to" setting in order for it to work. This avoids hefty charges. I suspect that it is in cases like mine that the HTC weather app is at its worst. It probably doesn't impact much on battery if it can simply connect, download info, and disconnect. However, when it cannot connect automatically, it seems to affect both battery life and performance adversely.

So, to avoid this, how about disabling the HTC Weather App from starting by default in the ROM - by removing the key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\Module

and instead offer a CAB file attached to the first post to turn the app on.

Or better still, how about adding 2 shortcuts to the MyTools\Extras folder - One to Enable HTC Weather, the other to Disable HTC Weather - and in the first post refer people to trying the Disable if they are experiencing battery issues.
[HTC Excalibur] psylink:
was going through the posts and couldnt find this, so i apologize if this has been addressed already, was skimming.

1. Error: Error while lloading from the registry InvalidOperationExceoption

i get this when trying to enter chome settings, it allows me into the settings, so its more of an annoyance than anything. would be nice to do away with this though.

2. Theme: Sliding Panel vs HTC

under chome configurator the chome shows missed calls / voicemail / txt / emails all in one sliding panel.

the htc theme only has missed calls / voicemail. the sms and email are in seperate panels. any way to use the htc theme but with the one panel for chome of the sliding panel theme

i really enjoy the htc theme, but i really prefer the calls/vmail/mms/email of the sliding panel theme. thanks in advance for any assistance ^.^

Re: Battey 76% after 28 hours without shutting down HTC Weather 1550mAh battery.

I have the same setup as you as on limited GPRS so set Interenet to Work to stop conncetion and set HTC Weather to not Download weather data automatically.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
No such issue getting into CHome Config settings no one else mentioned this.
[HTC Excalibur] psylink:
erm well, i'm getting it... so there is such an issue

anytime i try to use chome config settings, it pops up the error screen, i click ok and enter into the settings as usual. guess ill attempt usb cab for chome config settings from that main thread to see if that corrects it, but has done it since flash of 1.7, previously never had the problem with rickys vanilla.

/shrugs like i said, more of annoyance than causing any major problems that i can notice anyways
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Sorry about that but i got a fix, install the RvBCrS HTC Streaming Media install to device it will reboot, now Streaming Media Player works. :)

Sorry i could not attach.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Just because you get this error doesn't mean there is an issue with the ROM as it has not been noted by anyone else and mine works fine i have set up more progs in Chome Config without any such issue.
[HTC Excalibur] chillybilly:
I flashed to v1.7a as soon as it was out and have had no problems with chome config. Straight in everytime. If it bugs ys that much, maybe a re-flash will sort it, but then like ya say, your managing with it :)
[HTC Excalibur] D2sx34:
The Streaming Media player works after installing the fix!.

thx for the quick response.

Pocket Cam (pcam) DVR software on NRG Rose Rom v1.7

I tried to install Pocket Cam (pcam) cab file: http://210.21.229.141:82 on my Tmobile Dash. The install fails saying "Installation of PCAM.PPC2203_ARM.CAB" was unsuccessful. The installation file is not intended for this device.".

Documentations says Pocket Cam only works on Windows Mobile Classic or Professional, and NRG Rose Rom is Windows Mobile standard.

Any ideas/workarounds?

btw: NRG Rose Rom v1.7 rocks - phone, internet, email works well, HTC streaming media player (works after patch)

Hey Stylez, whats the little blue phone icon on your Windows Live screenshot next to the clock and battery?
[HTC Excalibur] kmattoo:
I had some major problems with this ROM after getting a missed call. The home screen wouldn't load up at all. Even after reboots, I would get the spinning wheel on the home screen.

The install went well and I like the new comm manager, but I just re-installed Ricky's v24of kavana back up.

If anyone knows how to fix my home screen issue, please let me know!

Profiles not editable

has anyone noticed that the profiles if edited refuse to be save in build 1.7a. cud some help be given regarding this plz...:confused:
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
No problem there is an error message that pops up once to say something to this effect but infact everything does save no issues.
[HTC Excalibur] jeanpiere:
oh ok tnx much
[HTC Excalibur] chillybilly:
Ive just been catching up with some of the posts in this thread. Just wanted to say that ive been using all versions of this ROM, and have never had any problems. Im now running v1.7a and have got none of the problems mentioned above (battery, homescreen etc). I can only recommend a re-flash.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
I have flashed 1.7a about 7 times since release as testing things out, never had any of the problems associated like Messager, loseing homescreen, battery issues, not having profiles save, if you have a problem the first port of call is to double check before post and a hard-reset may just be whats needed to sort the problem out, the first flash is not guranteed to be perfect, thats why on most other forum sections of XDA you will see that people hard-reset after a flash.

A hard-rest can be done via Start\Accessories\Clear Storage then typing 1234 and clicking yes.

Hope this helps.

Testing new rom

First great job guys alot of respect due, i've changed from kavana's wm 6.1 rom to the new styles rom some how my old cab files wouldn't install error 'installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it doesntt have sufficient system permission. also the photo viewer sticks on the first photo and wouldnt move and if it does automatically it returns and highlights the first photo only are these a common issue that can be fixed? also when the phone was updated it took like 5 restarts before it worked without freezing
[HTC Excalibur] chillybilly:
Everything you have explained above sounds to me like a bad flash. Try re-flashing. I flashed to v1.7a and all is working first time. Enjoy the ROM :)
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Just try a hard-reset as explained above before a reflash...
[HTC Excalibur] mjpuczko:
i'm flashing to this rom shortly! i bit the bullet & decided to quit being a cheap ass & pay the $19 for full internet with t-mobile :)

[HTC Excalibur] kparikh82276:
Good looking rom, but still needs more input

OK!..

Ricky, your ROM's are by the best looking i've seen, and thus far you have not disappointed.

Stylez, i believe you're there as well. But i'm comparing this ROM w/ the one that Ricky updated prior with his input, and i have to say i was very impressed w/ the last line of ROM you put up Ricky, infact i have not updated the ROM since, this one.

One thing i do notice is that there is a little longer lag time w/ press of button and launch of action. Also i noticed that the battery life is not that great as compares to the last ROM you created ricky.

But look is good but i think i'm going to go back to the previous one.

I'll post the version for others as well.

Thanks again guys. Keep it up

[HTC Excalibur] kmattoo:
Hey guys...i figured out what my problem w/ the rom was.

When I picked the home screen with Top Bar, my phone would freeze on the homescreen. I noticed this when I went back to Ricky's v24 ROM as well (it worked on my phone with the v17 ROM, which I had been using for most of the year).

So if you have any suggestions as to what may be wrong, I'd love to hear.

I do love the top bar and miss it so!

There is Mediafire & 4shared.

[HTC Excalibur] tmcdoniel:
If I look at my downloads folder it shows that I downloaded the 1.6 version, when I installed it several weeks ago. But when I click in About, it says Rickys 'Rose' v1.2 ? So is the 'about' statement misleading or am I running the 1.2 version?

I'm also wondering if the new v1.7 fixes the issue of xT9 not bringing up any predictive text or remembering past words. I've also noticed an issue with low volume through the headset now. With past ROMS I could listen to music and podcasts in the gym or car with no problems, now it's too faint, even with the volume all the way up. Fortunately the problem isn't apparent with my new Motorola S9 bluetooth headset, but with standard headphones the volume is noticeably too low.

Thank you!

Tim

P.S. Merry Christmas! :-)

Having major issues with Comm Manager and Bluetooth in Ricky and Stylez Rose 1.7a. Sometimes I have to reboot the phone 4-5 times for Bluetooth to turn on or to even have access to Comm Manager. Seemed buggy in NRG's Rose 1.4 as well but worse in Ricky's 1.7a. Also, when I am going through "All Programs" and I hit menu, it gets stuck and freezes up and I need to reboot to get the phone functioning at 100% again. I have set Pagepool to 4MB, could this be it?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
you seem to always have issues lol, if you read back you will see how most issues can be a fixed by a hardreset or a reflash, i.m.o i wouldn't do the pagepool tweak eather.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
With Re: The about, it's not been updated the no. on the corresponding .zips for the ROMs is correct.

Merry Christmas.
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Whatever issues you have with my original version, you will most likely have with their remake (1.7). The comm manager issues are present in ALL S740 based ROMs. It's just something we have to live with until somebody (!?) finds a solution. I find it easier not to launch Comm Manager from the Quick List, but launch it from the Settings panels on the homescreen... It's not rick's or stylez fault that it does that... and hard reset won't fix it either. Just learn to live with it for now :)
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
It actually isn't that noticeable in 1.7 and if you leave the phone to load and then let the second load too there should be no problems with coms, i was stating the hard-reset or flash for his other issues with menus etc.

Thanks for re-instating that the coms is a s740 issue.
[HTC Excalibur] ookba:
haha! Thanks guys, will play around with it some more.

Oh, is anyone working on a 96 dpi option for the next releases?? Love the extra screen real estate.
[HTC Excalibur] Trabant500:
Hello

I just flashed my s620 with the 1.7 rose rom and all i gotta say is .. Wow, it's incredible ;)

I've been using the official rom for like 6 months, now i dont miss it at all!

Now after some tweaking, and some researching on the board i still havent found how to switch it to azerty keyboard. I've found some tutorials, but for other HTC (maybee i did'nt look hard enough) and i'm a bit affraid of screwing the keyboard like some did.

If someone has an idea it would be cool

Thanx a lot for this awesome release!
[HTC Excalibur] travisc:
no solution for the predictive text eh?
[HTC Excalibur] ookba:
Ricky, Stylez, anyone? I need some files out of the \Windows folder like tshres.dll, tapres.dll, and shellres.dll to tweak with the 96 dpi package. How can I copy files out of ROM in the \Windows directory? It keeps saying denied.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Take a look @ the Excalibur Kitcen thread, you can dump the .nbh and get the files you need.
[HTC Excalibur] stickyfingers293:
im unable to install the media streaming fix.

Using Ricky n Stylez remade Rom.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
What do you mean by you are unable to install the streaming media player fix?

Edit: Just read your message, are you installing to device, it should work as lot's of people have used the fix.
[HTC Excalibur] stickyfingers293:
lol, man i forst have to ask you that question too. DO U SLEEP?

im not even gettin to the option to install to device or storage card. i run the .cab and it just says installation unsuccessful.

Sent you a PM hit me back via PM as we can solve this with work arounds :)

[HTC Excalibur] kingtaco11:
Whats with the start screen where it says "Made by ricky and styles"? Kind of unprofessional dont you think?

Im really not liking that
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
It say Ricky & Stylez just like the NRG has NRG on it.......

Check out all ROMs in sections they hold the chefs names.

What do you want your name on it?
[HTC Excalibur] kingtaco11:
I figured you could have just a Windows Mobile screen just like Kavanas ;/

Would look better then that black one D:

Btw... why is when I open audio manager it closes out in lik e5 seconds? I just flashed so it cant be a software problem...

help its annoying :(
[HTC Excalibur] kingtaco11:
Also, is there anyway to get clock on the top? like on kavanas?

I found a .cab for it, but i cant get it to show up in 12-hour format >_< grr..

sorry for the question :p

, but i still need help with my audio manager
[HTC Excalibur] kraze10458:
your so wrong...i rather have somthing that loads fast and that windows crap took years for some reason

+ i like tht fact i can show people i did something to my phone =D
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
Yeah.. only my "branding" was little more discreet... grey small text in the right hand corner ;)
[HTC Excalibur] NRGZ28:
I don't see how it's not that noticeable in 1.7 compared to my original one... Unless you replaced the comm manager ?...
[HTC Excalibur] drifterrolly:
question: how do you make it so the T-Zones button will be the task manager again instead of Opera. and why does the wifi connect/disconnect, doesnt stay connected.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
oh and in the device information the ROM no. is your name too... ;) The reason the text is large is that it's unified with the other text.

With regards to comms it's not bad if u let it load like i said in my previous comment you responded too...

Happy Christmas.
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
It can still be a software issue as a flash isn't always perfect if it's still a problem hard-reset, with regards to homescreen you can have the Kavana style go to Setting\Homescreen and you will see the choices.
[HTC Excalibur] kingtaco11:
Alright, after about a whole day of using rose, I've decided to switch back to kavanas.

Heres what I like and don't like:

Pros: I love the new home screen, I like how it isnt as glossy as kavanas, since it allows you to see the back ground better

I like the htc camera app that it comes with, also, I like when a person calls its has the pictures centered and stuff.(btw, is that an app? i'd love to have it on kavanas.)

I also like the home editor, that is great, btw.

Cons:

I dont like how the home music player plays with audio manager... it causes my phone to lag.

I dont like how the htc camera app often doesnt let me go through my pictures, it just keeps searching

I dont like how when I try to run the comm manager it says"not enough memory" so I have to go back and free some memory alot.(That never happened to me on Kavana)

I dont like how there isnt a clockontop like on kavanas( I often used that)

Other then that, this is a great Rom, I'm sure ill go back to it after a few more releases.

Good job guys. Keep up the good work!

P.s. Can someone find me the stuff I listed in Pros?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
Did u do a hard-reset to see if it cleared the cons, should have been no problem with coms and low memory if you closed apps, over 500 downloads and you pointed out things others have not and i defenitly have none of them problems, clockontop can be there if you use SmartToolKit.
[HTC Excalibur] kingtaco11:
How would you do a hard reset?
[HTC Excalibur] stylez:
or Start\Accessories\Clear Storage then typing 1234 and clicking yes
[HTC Excalibur] cicciocant:

How can I add the italian dictionary for t9 input text?
[HTC Excalibur] kingtaco11:

The "HTC skins" is actually called a "dialer" and it's an application. HTC uses a .dll to modify the original dialer screen. While it COULD be transplanted to Kavana's, it would be a pain in the ass. Much easier to just use this ROM :)
