danggggggggggggg calm down, im sure he has a reason that its not posted yet.

and for your 1st post i would expect it to be a little nicer
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] therecker:
Free lesson

He shouldn't have assured us it would be ready by the evening if indeed it wasn't going to be. And a simple update letting us know when to REALLY expect it and WHY it isn't going to be tonight would have been courteous. And as far as I'm concerned, I guess you shouldn't go expecting too much from people you know nothing about! LESSON LEARNED

How's that for a SECOND post!!??

Video calls...

I was doing video calls with my Hermes (with Josh'es earlier builds, Hex v_16) to my son (who has an HTC Wizard)...

Install a "video call phone skin" such as the one I was using from the Black Satin (do search on XDA for Black Satin; Additions...) Once installed(?), well for me it was a additional feature that I soon outgrew. You have to call using a "Vidoe Call" connect button on the phone skin- to SOMEONE who also has Vidoe Call capability (to me, it was my son). On the Hermes and Wizard, with only one camera/which is opposite the screen that you're looking at? Well- mirrors were involved, unless we were trying to show something other than each other... It was work to make it happen physically. Yes this phone will do it, with this system, but after a while, I had to ask myself if it was really worth the trouble for what I got.

Until I get another device with two camera's, this is a feature that I figured was pending on "Is this necessarilly useful? Or is this more work to make this work than a REAL feature?" On devices with secondary camera's (at least a camera on the same side as the veiwing screen), now THERE I have high hopes!!!

To later posts: And with Josh saying a new build is pending? I'm patient. Wasn't it John Lennon who said "Life happens when you have plans for something else..." or something along those lines. He comes through.

He released a build on Kaiser earlier tonight... Something might have happened or it wasn't ready yet for us(?)... But I know he "has" pride in what he does AND in what he says... Sometimes there's reality (life) and sometimes that balance in (sometimes even beating yourself up) waiting to bring what you think is the standard... Instead of the all too often- Here's the release; Bugs included at no additional expense...

I think Josh has had a certain standard he's kept himself to... Sometimes untiring and even inspiring.

Hi Josh

Thank you for all the work, your roms are the cleanest and the most stable of all the bleeding edge roms. All of us who have used your roms for a while now realise you have started working on kaiser roms and are only making Hermes for the love of it (and for your partners hermes). We all appreciate the good work and although we are all gagging to try the new builds, we should be patient or go build our own.....

That said, can't wait for the 21501....

Thanks again,

Chris
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] StefanHou:
just wonder is it 21500 or 21501? :p
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] StefanHou:
Hi, try to hard reset by press both soft keys and the reset button.

Press 'R' to rest and hope e'thing is good with your Hermes

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] donz_dc86:
sms = fine

call = fine

wifi = fine

3G = fine

no memory leaks!

it's really fast!

one problem though, the start menu icons don't look nice, they're jaggy
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gregorysl:
Josh here are some screens of Your newest build, feel free to put them on first page ;)

ROM is looking great so far I have no complaints :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] uiskibum:
does this version use phone canvas for the dialer?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] unubtanium:
I have been running it now for about 2 hours, not done much on it. Only installed icontact and added exchange account. and it has reset itself 3 times(like it was hard reset:mad:) and my battery is getting warm(not even charging it):confused:

But i am not giving up on this rom so will continue testing and report back. :p
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
dude.. flash oem ATT rom first.. then my custom rom :) it's been running great for my old hermes :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
OHhhh very nice!! Thank you so much man!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] HolyAngel:
Did you flash the stripped AT&T stock rom first?

I haven't had any issue's like that so far with mine, it runs very smooth. My only problem is getting Titanium Weather to work :cool:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] unubtanium:
:( Is just hung it self again, on todays screen. And after doing the reset with the butten in the bottom, it is hanging on the htc windows mobile startup screen. (the red text in the bottom goes away but it will not continue boot up any more... :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] riyazhyder:
Holding on good!!

Over an hour now... No Hard resets so far....

Installed

1. icontact

2. skyfire

3. UC web

+ Restored data from Pim Backup

+ Vista sync working fine...

+ Bloody fast

+ titanium is doing fine

- Icons needs to be updated..

- Too big for my preference
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] xit:
results so far

love it. :p Installed TomTom7 and MS Voice Command no problem.

Pros

Touch is faster and better response

Heaps of free storage and ram

Probs

History in dialer still corrupts when scrolled

Had to change keyboard to English from ATT

Connection Wizard wasn't present?

No calculator? that's very slim.....

Now I just want to find out how to add the weather to the new menu...;)

Thanks Josh, you're the man. Please report to the headmasters office to claim your halo.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] conceptcar3:
use this cab... it brings the original honeycomb graphics back (i love :D ), and makes icons smaller. :)

if u don tlike honeycomb graphics, there is a similar cab on the forums that makes icons small without honeycomb graphics. enjoy!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gregorysl:
Here is better pic( stupid photobucket resized pic to 600x800 by default)

Higher quality appropriate to quality of Your ROM ;)

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] I[E:
yes it does
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] I[E:
Josh your 21501 is by far the best hermes 6.5 rom to date.

Feels a lot more stable than 21198, there are still a couple little issues.

scrolling through the contacts from the dialer screen causes the text to jumble up like the screen isn't refreshing with the scrolling - only with the dialer though.

second in the context menus the options seem to truncate oddly

I'll try and get screen shots later
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ice8lue:
@Josh:

Wow, now this is amazingly fast =D

Truely the best WM6.5 ROM so far =0)

The menu Icons are a little glitchy and I miss the Connection Wizard and Office 07 but disregarding this, its simply amazing =) Thank You!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
Thanks allot guys.. i'm going for perfection on the next one :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] uiskibum:
thanks for the answer! josh, any chance of releasing a version with the 3G dialer? As I posted before, the 6.5 lock screen caller id functions are pretty neat and seem to work well.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
Yep. the next one i plan to have that and all the other goodies i put in :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] HolyAngel:
!My only thought! Anyway to make the close button just a Tad larger? i keep hittin the sound icon instead of the ok/x button and it wasn't so on the last one, other than that i'm good with all of it :)

Thank you btw ^^
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] I[E:
maybe one version with phone canvas and one with a 3G dialer?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] irisiris:
thanks Josh for the lovely ROM

few issues to note

Available free Program memory on boot 19.5MB

and MEMORY LEAK exists.. any way to stop that ppl?

other wise its very kool ROM..thanx
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ice8lue:
how does this memory leak show up?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] agovinoveritas:
I think most of WM6.5 so far have a memory leak. I think it might be Titanium's doin' since I have one WM6.5 without Titanium even installed and it RAM seems to be managed better. However it is just what I have seen, this is not hard fact.

This latest one seems nice, although I have not installed. Anyone know the difference/changes from '500 to '501?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrDSL:
Since your going for perfection on the next ROM Josh how bout a light rom with no titanium either? :)

If that is the memory leak which I have also heard elsewhere it would be nice to get rid of..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] HolyAngel:
From what I understood through this forum and another, is that 21500 is a hex edited version of 21210, whereas 21501 is the Official 6.5 Release.

But thats just what I've read..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] idbl_fanatic:

Great rom of in terms of speed and stability so far but why it takes too long to boot up ,,, Sapphire rom was somhow quick in booting up inspite of my apps that is starting also up with the rom !!!

Can you do some modifications related to this issue !!!

although the pop windows size is bigger than I used to have and it's simply can be modified from the registery will you resize it in the next buit to smaller size ?!

thanx again
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] + Que PPC:
Yes Big fans!!!

I am a big fan too.

Josh Are you judish? :o

I remember that I was a big fan of Mr TNT on Wizard forums when I had a HTC wizard, he works together with abusalza... I think the master makes great cookers!

Edited: Not for offend anybody! peace for all!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] joshkoss:
sure dude, i like it, you can search for font software for ppc, you can install a new font that will affect the size :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] uiskibum:
icons

most program icons (and custom folder icons) are sized at 32x32. In the StartMenu_GridSecene_XXXxXXX.cpr of this rom they have been pushed to 45x45. This means that the majority of the 3rd party icons will be pixelated since they are being upsized. the "default windows" icons look fine because they are 45x45.

Fixing this will require someone to redraw all the custom icons (or at least provide new sizes if they exist in a larger size). As for the programs, well that is up to the person(s) who created the program to provide a new icon.

if you want the smaller icons just open the .cpr files and find this line

<Image ID="Image" Left="25" Top="2" Width="45" Height="45" ScaleStyle="Fit" />

and make it

<Image ID="Image" Left="32" Top="6" Width="32" Height="32" ScaleStyle="Fit" />
