Version for hd is coming up next!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
The HD version might not work because of the different screen resolution. We have to test that when it will be released. The thing is that it is hard to test on Elf because I don't have an Elf device. Can you give me a link to the rim software however? Maybe I can take a look at it by installing it on my HD.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] flummie:
hi, if you follow link you will find sw. Does not work on HD yet. We'll have to wait till next version.

Versions work on all 'older'versions of Touch though. Have used it on Elf until flashing Touch of HD....

cheers, Alwin
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Hi Alwin, first of all it does not look like official rim software or is it? What version did you try, I see several versions for wm6 and a socalled wm6pro version?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] flummie:
hi kwbr, its official: can get it on there site too. Only latest version though. Also version for Palm and Iphone version is coming up..

Didnt have to try different versions because latest version and older work on Elf. Without your rom, that is.. :confused:

Add Hotmail account

Hotmail account can't be added in the version 4.3 Lite ROM. Wonder if it's the same for version 4.4....

Using:

* HTC Touch (Elf) ROM/RAM = 128/64

* Rom version 4.3 Lite - 3.07.720.03 (KBWR)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pinx:
Today I was helping my friend with his HTC Touch.

I flashed 4.3 lite, and I have to say this ...

Simply outstanding ROM, it's so damn quick, responsive and has loads of free RAM and storage space!

Great work.

Would it be too much effort to make a package with all customization made to the original rom to make it look so cool like the HD - colors, skin, etc.

P.S. That is in case I want to build my own custom rom.

[Touch GSM ROM Development] becosemsaida:
The first rom i flashed to my elfin was when this rom was released (after arwen) and with the help of this forum and all participants i learned a few things about upgrading this device but still have a lot to learn.......

I would like to thank kwbr for all his hard work and time spended on this rom and i'm able to say that it's very fast (always has been) and also stable. I have helped some friends with upgrading their elf(in)s and untill now they all say the same: very good,stable and reliable.

Hi, everyone... Recently i got a bug this version of ROM... I've used PIM Backup to backup my contact, msg, and everything. After i've switched to this ROM and i founded that when i restore my PIM, the TouchFlo could start... It will always shows "Tab here to launch TouchFlo" then "Launching TouchFlo" and then it back to the previous sentence... Tried many times and error but still no solution... Anyone can help me put on how to restore PIM back without affect the TouchFlo? Thanks in advance.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Not a bug of the rom but from PIM backup I guess. I do not support third party software :)

Did you make a backup while running another rom and try a restore after you flasht another (touch of hd) rom?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] becosemsaida:
Sorry to have to report it but what is happening with wireless connection, i can't connect to my home network nor public ones..... Anyone has the same problem????? Didn't have this with previous releases
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mysterious_driver:
Tried Touch HD of Blackstone, still the same problem... And yes, i did backup while running with original ROM and restore after i've flashed to this ROM(Touch of HD). May i know what kind of software you are using to backup and recover your contact and stuff? Currently i'm using PIM Backup 2.8... NEW SLOGAN -> PIM Backup, Problem occur always..
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mysterious_driver:
PROBLEM SOLVED!!!

Used SPB Backup to restore in the new ROM...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mysterious_driver:
Another problem... SRS WOW HD, installed but still mute even though i've change the registry to WaveDev.dll at Old driver. Please Help.... Like SRS WOW HD So much!!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Like I said. You keep telling about problems with third party software that cause the problem. The rom is fast and stable ... and I really can't give support to third party apps.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
Are you using the correct SRS WOW or the version that doesn't work on 6.1?? The correct one is found in the FAQ for Onyx.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] johamson:

Hey guys! Does anybody know a way to restore the original "speed dial" function to this ROM? In the dialer menu/view it's set "Calls and Contacts" always by default... I needed something more practical... Does anybody have a suggestion on an easy and fast way to speed dial? The less clicks the better... LOL!!!

I've installed the pack, it never shows. So I tried to install the whole keyboard from development and hacking thread and it fails with "it does not have sufficient system permissions" :S
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cris_rowlands:
Yes it does include both Word and Excel

It leaves out powerpoint and onenote

(who uses either of them anyway)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mysterious_driver:
Thanks DSIXDA, i can use it right now... So sorry KWBR, causing so much of trouble for you and make you feel uncomfortable just because i keep telling the problem caused by third party software.. And yes, you did a very good job on this ROM.. Fast, reliable, and the most important thing is stable... Keep it up.. I might wanna apologize once again...

Hi,

I flashed this version 4.4 a week ago, though is a great rom, I experienced couple of things:

1) The startup screen hangs occassionally,

2) Battery life seems draining fast, e.g. full charge by end of the day is 50% left with couple 5 mins call and sms most of the time.

I revert back to version 4.3 which serve me really well!

Wayne
[Touch GSM ROM Development] madsurfer1:
kwbr is it possible wen you are in the outlook email/sms inbox, and swipe your finger to the left it moves to the sent items and so on.

I have a friend that has a jade and his outlook moves that way, also the same happens on the Polaris.

Is that a registry hack?

Thanks for the help.

Regards
[Touch GSM ROM Development] yeeyeewuwu:
I flashed 4.4 on my elf several days ago and now encounter similar issues - it sometimes hangs on startup.

Questions:

1. ¿How can i hide the sim contacts?.

I change the value in the registry and when i restart the htc, another time the default value is 1. There is software for this, but it doesn't work, the problem is the registry. Why i can't change this value ?.

2. In Speeddial, by default, the first contact is voicemail (i haven't in my contacts), and i can't edit this.

3. In the contact list (when you push the green button), i change the view by default (calls and contacts) to (all calls), and it doesn't change, never. Why ???

Thanks for all.

Plz help me to get it (that is the same with one in the Full Rom). Thanks so much.

Speed dial on Manila People tab...

Guys, I recently found out something very ordinary and usefull...

It took me a while to notice that if you press exactly the name of a person on Manila People tab it speed dials!

I thought this might be useful for other people too...
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sean9919:
Manila People Tab Shortcut (you may already know)

When adding a person in the Manila People Tab, if you select the text number, instead of mobile number, it will display a text icon instead of a call icon.

For me, i have 2 entries for my girlfirend, 1 for calling and 1 for texting. the texting links directly to a new text message with her name as the recipient, so i can type my message and send without inputing anything in the 'To' field.

Btw, i prefer the v4.3 ROM. It works super fast on my Elf.

Cheers all!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] pete85:

ringtones

Hi kwbr,

Thanks for the nice rom, i am using the lite on my elf.

Somehow i have lost the panflute ringtone. Could you tell me where you got it, since i liked it a lot. Or can you post the birds and the panflute please?

Thanks in advance,

DVL908
[Touch GSM ROM Development] bimsdae:
H kwbr!

I know that you sold your elfin, but can you update your rom with new XIP/SYS 21028 and add new rhodium apps (notification,calculator,...)?

Thanks!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Maybe, I just finished a new release based on the 3.10 rom. Besides a new xip and sys I updated some packages with Iolite versions. I use a lot of Topaz packages in my Blackstone rom and I don't think I will use these for Elf, simply because there isn't a lot of added value. The Elf has (a lot) less memory (the Topaz packages use more mb's) and the Elf doesn't have a sensor.

The great news is that I recently bought a secondhand Elfin. Like I said, there will be a new release today. And yes I fixed Activesync to prevent it from running all the time! Besides that Opera will have ad-blocking by default, there will be new hTC ringtones and some minor tweaks.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] madsurfer1:
Great news!

I was considering changing rom, but now I'll wait for yours

[Touch GSM ROM Development] bimsdae:

I was user of "A Touch HD" 4.4 ROM and upgrade my elf to 4.5 (version lite) and i think for elf older version is better because new one have less RAM memory:/...after using it throught one day without any modyfications (without memory card, programs and files) i have 12 MB free RAM...in older version i have 15 MB free RAM with every apps i use...:/
[Touch GSM ROM Development] madsurfer1:
kwbr wen will we see a windows build greater then 21000 or higher so we can use some rhodium software?

Regards
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Hi Okonez, this is strange because on my Elfin I get 4Mb more storage space in the new version. Only 72k less program memory because of activesynckiller. I will try to free some more memory in the next release.

What memory do you mean? Did you perform a hard reset?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] becosemsaida:
Welcome back kwbr, i was pleased to read that you were "back in the kitchen" again and already releasing new roms for our, and yours as i've read things right, elf(in)s. I hope that the quality of the "new" roms will be the same or better than the "old" ones and as soon as you've updated the new version i will dload it and install it to my elfin. I've tried several roms in the mean time but didn't find them as complete as yours. Once again welcome back to the elf(in) section. Greetings from beco.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Thanks b. Good to be back at the Elf forum because of the best vibe around and the easy going. Because the Elf has less memory and horsepower it is nice to develop for the device. I think the new rom is faster, has more free memory and no activesync running all the time e.g.

Just give it try :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] bimsdae:
Hi kwbr!

Your new rom is really great!It's faster than 4.4!!

Is there any way to get rhodium menu-popup work on elfin?

Thanks
[Touch GSM ROM Development] becosemsaida:
Well, after dloaded rom installed it no problems here, start-up is a bit slow (it's a big rom too), after everything installed did a hard reset, installed some 3rd party progs (s2u2, tomtom7, coreplayer, batty, spbgprs-monitor, md2c) i restarted and now it's just a question of trying it...........First impression faster than latest 4.4 a few more ringtones :rolleyes:, higher volume? i will try it more and give you a feedback.

Just a question for you all: is it possible to play avi (divx) files with media player??? I now have coreplayer but i don't like it very much and maybe it is possible to install some kind of plug-in for media player since it's possible on your pc/laptop. thanks again kwbr for reviving my faith in elfins roms......i was a bit dissapointed with other ones, not offending the cookers i know it's a lot of work and time spending.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] okonez14:
I mean program - RAM memory... but in fact it is like in older version after using elf throught one day left ~16 MB program memory

maybe it was less memory because i didn't have memory card inside and some files was in program memory...i don't know
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
And in version 4.5.1 you will have an extra 2mb free program memory :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] sids911:
Hey kwbr,

Any reason you are using an older build for your 4.5.1 version? stability/performance?

Also, I am thinking of using your ROM, but need activesync runing all the time for push mail. Is there any way, any registry hack or something, thru which I can enable it again?

I am using an Elfin.

Thanks,

Sid
[Touch GSM ROM Development] a.fontenele:
KWBR, you're the man!!!

Tks a lot for the update!

I can't keep myself from flashing all your updates. They are awesome!!! LOL!!!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Hi Sid, no particular reason besides it is the original base from the 3.10 rom and no time yet to try/port another base for Elf. There are no specific advantages in using another build (at east I can mention, maybe you can?). Maybe I will use 21038 in a next release so users can try some Topaz or Rhodium stuff. But then all images have to be resized also for these packages. Time consuming (without any help). And not sure if it will be faster anyway.

No, to keep Activesync from from running all the time I replaced a file. Who said push mail won't work :)

Give it a try.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Hi becosemsaida, some figures about this rom, version 4.5.1:

* Original rom: Free storage ~98MB and Free program ~73MB (romsize 112.656kB).

* Full version: Free storage ~122MB and Free program ~75MB (romsize 86.166kB).

* Lite verion: Free storage ~157MB and Free program ~77MB (romsize 65.823kB).

Remember it has more features then the original rom. So I don't think it is a big rom :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] becosemsaida:
wow, after "working" with it for about 24h i must say that it's a cherry on the top of the cake. I just said that it's a "big" rom because there are a lot of apps to install when you do the first boot and not because of the size. I've read the changelog before flashing so i knew what was waiting for me. Untill now i found it a bit battery hungry: made 5min of calls, used net for about 30min (with excellent carrier coverage), send some sms and browsed through the menus and after about 10h (off charge 7am)i already used 40% of the battery. I checked the app manager and found no background apps running, checked the task manager and found out that gwes.exe is using 8,12m of mem and filesys.exe 5,21m and they are all stable ate these values.. About the memory values i have 92,77 storage free and 58,85 program free. I must remember you that my 3rd party apps are s2u2, batty, spbgprsmonitor, coreplayer, and tomtom7 on my memcard. Since i'm (still) a noob can you tell me if these are the correct values (aproximate???). Nice rom though i like it ver much.........
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
Hi kwbr,

For 19972, ActiveSync is not an issue. When you use Elias ASyncKiller it closes AS when you remove it from USB.

However, in higher builds (e.g. 21028), ActiveSync restarts automatically every few minutes if it was closed by the user. This is intentional design by Microsoft for push email (not sure specifically why). There is a hack that was posted by vadyarik to stop this, which requires hex-editing 3 files before cooking, but it affects push email.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
Hi D, trust me, I know this. In this rom (nor my blackstone rom) activesync does not restart and it won't in higher builds :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] becosemsaida:
how do i put this in landscape mode???
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
When you mean "this ROM", do you mean 19972?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kwbr:
I mean any build :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] dsixda:
There is the ActiveSync hack that Davideuck uses in his HD ROMs, but there is also the fake server trick. For the 2nd method I was able to find the registry entries but couldn't find the value that sets the checkbox.

I'll send you the package d.
