Cabs for better Topix

Hi again,

here some cab to improve this rom :

Cabs For HTC By Geistteufel

Diamond BackgroundChanger Installer v0.5.cab

=> Change your today screen automatically

Duttys Enable Push Internet.cab

=> Allow opera to run in background, when you need it, it appear instantly. If you don't bother to lose few ram, and have opera quickly when you need, use this.

Enable_threaded_SMS_KWBR.cab

=> For who's love thread in sms like me

FingerKeyb-2.1-WVGA.cab

=> One of the best keyboard out there

GfxBoost-1.1-Service.cab

=> Boost global performance of your tools. Seems to improve global speed of video and more

htcAddicts cleanRAM v1.1.8.8.cab

=> Get free ram when you want. Can be call automatically.

If you use stage 3, there close everythink, programs and service, so free maximum memory. Good replacement of reboot party.

kwbr_hTC_Startmenu.cab

=> Now I prefer have this, to bother with organisation of Programs. So start menu allow you to have your fav programs quickly.

Max Analog Clock for Duttys ROM wt Background.cab

=> A perfect analog + digital clock working on this rom. I can't live without that

MicNeo_TaskBar_Enhancement_(Edited_by Dutty_Re_Edited_by_Spike).cab

=> Dutty made a pack for icons of topbar. It take MicNeo version and improve it a little. So it's just, really nice.

SIPChange_2.CAB

=> You will need it if after reboot your sip doesn't appear. SIP is the keyboard. So new install keyboard is available few seconds after boot. so they set it with this in mind. It's working nice !

Xtrakt.CAB

=> A funny 3D Game to test how fast is this rom with this graphics drivers, and of course to bit up a like iPhone :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
:D here it comes! we already started to mess with kwbr's ROM.

don't listen to us! stick yr fingers in yr ears! you are doing such a wonderful job.

keep doing what and HOW you are doing it.

this are only suggestions. feel free to ignore them or to use only what YOU think is important. more and more cookers are cooking the ROM and add a collection of cabs for the users to choose. there is plenty of memory in our HD, not everything has to be cooked.:p

there are even cooks that are mercilessly butchering any ROM, taking out 20-30% of the build in apps only to obtain a bug free one.:rolleyes:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] geistteufel:
Lol :)

GFXBoost and ClearRAM is nice for improving speed and stability.

Max Analog Clock and MicNeo Top Bar is wonderfully for eye candy :)

All over is just suggestion. Sometime people don't know how to test graphically speed.

a 3D game is great for that :) So XTrack :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
yr guess is good as mine. i've got the cab from dutty's collection.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
being a devoted fan of all yr work i have to agree with you. yr suggestions are always welcomed:) but this ROM is really unique. i'll hate to see it "spoiled":D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
these programs are always updated and it's not a good idea to include in a cooked rom.. you can always install them by yourself or use SASHMI and it will do the job for ya :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Requests

Hi all, quite some requests :)

I agree with you to leave eye candy out of the rom because it is much too user dependent. Same goes for programs that get updated on a regular/frequent basis. Some of the proposals really contribute to get an idea of the daily usage of you and to enhance the rom. A new version will at least have the following changes:

- removed default Topaz text size (too large for some of us).

- International band selection under phone settings (extra GSM band).

- replaced Cyberon VoiceSpeedDial with VoiceCommander.

- added threading SMS in settings to toggle.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
another thing to consider is hc4_ObexInbox_v0.948 which give you the ability to save bluetooth files into storage card or any folder you want and also it shows you the file's name and speed for the file that is being sent to you.... just an idea

and thank you for listening to us..

edit

also updating winrar to the latest version RAR 3.90 beta 1
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hamkeng:
We're all happy to have you as a rom cooker :)

And for us blackbackground users, here's the analog clock some post's ago with black background
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
i've seen around some ROMs that include in the commanager the 3G-GSM on-off option. could you include it in the next ROM? if you know how to do it in an other way please advice...using advanced configuration doesn't work for me.

again, this is not even a request, this is a suggestion at yr discretion to consider it or not:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] simon1219:
Hide SIM Contacts reg using HD Tweak Or Advanced Config is not permanent i.e after soft reset SIM Contacts registry setting revert back to Show SIM Contacts.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] geistteufel:
Yeah.

Another good way to do, like dutty do in fact, is to have a clear rom and addons package.

So you can pick easyly what you want, when dutty cut a feature, like push internet, they purpose cab for people who like it ...

I hope this cab will help people, not the author, to try more their great rom.

After long long time testing Dutty rom (I'm a fan), I'm surprise how speed htc hd could have. I'm really curious to know how ?

Any value of cache is normal, videos drivers is the same. So, the global cleanup could explain it. I hope a 0 pagepool is not set... I don't know, great great man !
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
+1 the naked truth:D

this file removes the manila sms page and when you try to delete a message, the popup window show IDS_ something and not the description of the deletion operation..
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
you are right! the delete is possible still...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] niyazidk:
Dear Kwbr...

i have the same q as before... Is it possible to find a way to upload from htc album to facebook...you previous tip with reg edit is not possible with this version of topix... I hope you can help again...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
You can always install another batteryprogram afterwards. The problem is, so many users and so many different tastes. So I will keep this one vanilla.

Hi mndgz, in version 2+ I included some enhancements that will speed up movies played from sd-card with coreplayer. With version 2 I don't have problems with a slow youtube player. This can also be caused by a slow networkconnection. Release 2.1.1 is almost done uploading. I recommend an upgrade :)

Hi Kenjari, as soon as you upload the new Opera release I will give it a try.

Thanks Vatt.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mndgz:
upgrade might be better, wont argue with that, its just that I hate reinstalling all my apps, sync'ing everything and so on...but I guess it has to be done...:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Version 2.1.1 is online

Version 2.1.1, 23.12.2008

- Disabled hTC splash screen animated.gif for a faster boot

- Disabled startup sound BootUpHTC.wav for faster boot

- Removed Camera from the launcher menu, it had two entries

- Fixed tabs in clean edition

Removed in clean edition:

- Connection setup download

- Domain enroll

- Internet sharing

- Messenger

- MP3Trimmer

- OneNote

- Remote Desktop

- Streaming Media

- Transciber

- Windows Live
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mndgz:
that video issue is really annoying...preparing for the upgrade now :)

kwbr, I see you got your nickname tweaked a bit :)

few questions now:

what's exactly done to improve battery life in the latest ROM and how much of an improvement we're talking?

what sort of stability issues are there if using the 3D driver?

thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] NeoS:
Kwbr, has anyone reported a bug that when the device goes to sleep the screen won't turn on after pressing the power button? I hope it's a program i installed, otherwise i'll have to flash another rom. I also have the 3D driver installed (since i work with them ALOT) but on stock rom it didn't give any problems.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mndgz:
no problem sleeping / waking up so far...the only thing is I cant get it to lock the keypad when it's put to sleep, seems that even in the Advanced Config the setting is gone...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Akhara:
look very interesting thank for the release but i want to know

does this rom allow us to read and type in japanese or thai?

thank you
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mndgz:
would it be possible to get a mirror for the latest ROM...?

getting a straight 13kb/s from mediafire at the mo...:eek:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] TSJMLEE:
The rom is better!!

I am using it!!!:d
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mndgz:
would you care to elaborate on that sir?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] TSJMLEE:
HELP!!!

Can't download!!!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] xenocide976:
just downloaded it. v fast! 100+kbps

will flash in a moment
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
mndgz, did you test version 2.1.1? Youtube as well as Coreplayer play really well on my device with the 2.x rom.

Neo, no problems here. I don't use experimental drivers in my rom :) Since you installed these (unsupported) drivers yourself on top of my rom this can cause the problem. Better remove the 3D drivers you installed to get a stable rom.

A few to mention, by default wifi is set to best battery instead of best performance. Powermanagement for SD is enabled which is default disabled. In the next version I will also disable beam by default to preserve batterypower.

I don't know. Haven't tried it yet. It is however unsupported software so it could give stability problems. That is why I don't use it in my rom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bill340:
Are you still going to provide this .cab ?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Try this file. Only needed when you run the previous 2.1

Clean

Edition. It fixes the registry entries for the tab selection :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] wanwinglo:
Using the 2.1 full rom, noticed that the RSS hub isn't connecting and I can't set up new channels or refresh the ones that are on it. Fortunately, I already have Newsbreak, which is practically the same software, and once installed newsbreak runs fine but RSS hub still won't run.

Newbie Q: If I install HD tweak, will it ruin all the tweaks you've done for performance?

Thanks very much for the vanilla, clean, but enhanced rom, just what I was looking for. Donation coming up.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Hi wanwinglo, in version 2.2 RSS Hub is working correctly. I replaced the Opal RSS Hub with the Blackstone version and now it is working as it is supposed to. HD Tweak should run fine.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] speedos:
CZECH;

Hi guys I would like to try Kwbr Rom but is here somebody who speak czech language to explaine me how to do it. THX and have nic Xmas.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Hey speedos, first of all I am uploading version 2.2 with the following changes;

Version 2.2, 24.12.2008

- Disabled beam by default to preserve battery

- Replaced Opal RSS Hub with Blackstone RSS Hub in full version

- Added WorldCard Mobile in full version

- Plain black background in all tabs

First you have to flash HSPL. Read this thread. When you successfully flashed HSPL you can download my rom and simply start CustomRUU.exe.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bill340:
Works perfect!

Thanks very much for all your support and by far the best rom for the Touch HD!

Merry Christmas!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] .void:
You can use the new microsoft facebook app.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Sorry rind9, I use the Album from topaz which does not support facebook upload. There is a standalone microsoft facebook application however.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] niyazidk:
Yes i know but it is so easy from tf3d... just 3 tap on screen... : )
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] niyazidk:
thx bro... let me not forget to praise your work... a great rom as always...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
You can change it in Config, Phone,Settings, Band for now. Fix will be part of the new release.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Thanks geistteufel.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rxdoctor:
any chance of a msvc version?

I just love the announce incomming calls with msvc - and I prefer to not have cyberon on the device at all....TIA if this is an option for you....other than that I also like the facebook upload from manilla but other than those two minor details the rom is definately my first choice. Great job.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
The new version of topix will have Cyberon VoiceCommander. You can use the vanilla topaz rom which doesn't have the Cyberon software installed.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] BigQ:
Topix 1.3.3 rom sometimes opera browser can't Rotate with G-sensor,

Anyone noticed this situation??
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Nope, no problem. I noticed that you should give rotation some time.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stonedge:
Hi kwbr,

Using your ROM '0' problem

GREAT ROM...

could you please give latest sms alert..:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Tell me what sms alarm is and where to get it and I will see :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stonedge:
like voice sms/email alert.. :)

noticed from Dutty ROM ... I think so..;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MaNIaCv1:
Incoming SMS msgs 4 hours out

Firstly Topix is one of the best roms I’ve used, great speed and battery usage. Well done.

My only problem is that the time stamp on incoming international SMS messages is 4 hours behind the actual received time. I’ve searched the forums and tried the following fixes.

HKLM/SOFTWARE/OEM/PhoneSetting/TrustTimeZoneField = 0

HKLM/SOFTWARE/OEM/SMS/RecvTimeStamp = 1

Neither solved the problem. I've never had this problem with any other rom I've used.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

MaNIaC
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
You life in Canada? It is a known problem with some providers/telco's that mess with the sms header. I read somewhere that you have to change the timezone to correct this. Will see if I can help. Try to set the correct timezone e.g. or have you tried going to Settings->Phone->Time Zones and uncheck so it gets the real time from your provider?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MaNIaCv1:
Thanks for the reply kwbr, great work with this rom.

I'm on Vodafone in the UK and my timezone is set to GMT London. It's stange, I've never had this problem before, I tried Dutty's rom before your rom and timestamp was correct, but your rom is much a better all round, except for this small problem.

Thanks

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
I am glad this is the only glitch so far :) Sorry, don't know for now and I am about to release a new version with some goodies. Let me know when you find out.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] imothep77:
Hey guys,

I gave myself time this weekend to test some ROMs out here. I wanted to flash with yours kwbr...

Only great comments around here, I am very concerned with battery usage, and for now, among the ROMs I've given time to test out, Laurentius26 2.2 is the best I've tested so far. Plus, it is very stable and sssooooo fast.

Want to try yours now, waiting for Leo's next release.

When do you think v1.3.4 will be out? :D :p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] iDaemon:
kwbr for contacts soft-menu in 1.3.1 when I have install inesoft Address book it will autometic replace contact soft-menu it is very good and convineien

but after flash 1.3.3 inesoft Address book only replace contacts in start menu shortcut

this is maybe not problem because it can use regedit to change soft-menu path

but i don't know why 1.3.1 we don't do anything will try 1.4 after upload finish

this is maybe cause some of us that use contact manager program than standard one

anyway,sorry for my eng.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Hi iDaemon, as always I appreciate your feedback but i'm not sure if I understand you. Are you looking for a way to change a softkey or are you having problems with a third party app?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
excellent.. can't wait to flash topix 1.4... downloading now :D and about the international sms issue i got the same problem here...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Well, the two of you sure will find out :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Don't know about L's rom but I bet it is a good one :)

Try Topix and tell me what you think of it!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] winstonysz:
Great ROM， and great job too. where is the download link??? Thanks in advance.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
for lack of a better word... this rom is perfect....

few things i found is the dial button is not mapped to the voice commander and pressing and holding result in an error (shortcut error) which can be manually set.

in communication manager the bluetooth button doesn't work.. says "Can not turn bluetooth" also the Wifi button doesn't work if you press the on-off.. but if you press on wifi icon itself it will turn on the wifi and search for one but then you can't turn off the wifi even by going to the Wireless LAN settings it shows that the wireless is off while the icon in the task bar shows it's on...

edit

are these fixed in 1.4.1?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Thanks, I can fix this tonight. Give me some time.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rdgut:
I was just about to say I found these problems too.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] iDaemon:
kwbr, i mean in 1.3.1 address book will replace shortcut in manilla but new version it's not

i know how to fix this but i not understand why version 1.3.1 is replace without fixing anything.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
here is a quick fix for the wifi problem... and still looking for the bluetooth :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] lehongminh:
I update v1.3.3 to 1.4, I can't WIFI, I don't known. I have to return v1.3.3.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
there is no version 1.3.4... it's 1.4 and check the post above yours!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Thanks, I used the CommManager from Rhodium which uses other devicenames :)

E.g.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]
"DeviceName"="{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\\BCMSDDHD1"
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
true and the only change needed is the last part of that key

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]
"DeviceName"="{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\\[B]TNETW12511[/B]"

but the bluetooth i couldn't find a fix for it yet.. but it can be turned on from the settings
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] lehongminh:
Sorry, version 1.3.3 OK
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
Thanks PapaD
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
still bluetooth doesn't work.. with the attached fix
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
remove this key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager]

"BluetoothPlatformType"=dword:00000001
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
bingo .. deleting that fixed the problem :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
still in topix 1.3.2 and i do not have this problem!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] kwbr:
I know, I used a lot of new packages. Should have tested it better but everything is fixed now:

- VoiceCommander home button mapping

- All functions in CommManager are working now

New version will be up soon.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
these problems are on the new version only 1.4 and 1.4.1 previous versions 1.3.x didn't have this problems because they still have the topaz comm manager and the new versions have rhodium comm manager ;)

First, thank you for your excellent work after trying many of the custom roms on this forum this is the one I've decided to stick with

But I've got one small problem, Im using the manila audio control with headset button posted here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=502881

and it works fine on the stock rom but not this one it uses sddialer.exe to control playback and it works if I manually run sddialer but its not being called by the headset button.

Is there a registry key I can add or change to enable this again.

Thanks in advance
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Ati75:
Thanks for the update kwbr! Came just in time. Was bored today, rainy sunday and all, and had fun setting up my phone. Feels very snappy as always! Didn't need the extra features in comparison to 1.3.2 but nevertheless. Appreciate the effort, and looking forward to using this rom for the next week(s)!
