Playing with '93 for about a day, it is the most polished so far, which is a bit of misnomer since it is the last one. Had one lockup which was very random as I was using UCWEB (which by the way, I highly recommend along Opera Mini).

I am always been about speed on the device so I try to install as few extra apps as possible. The Honeycomb is fast, although still quite different than the good old fashion pograms window.

I had not had problems with alarms myself, although I did notice that for some reason the clock does not check with my network. As it used to do before, so there was never a need for me to setup the time manually -- except this time.

I like the locking feature and as stated above, it allows me to get rid of S2U2, not because I do not like the program but, I see no reason why to use something that it is already cooked in. However on that note, the words, "slide to unlock" or something to that effect are a little mangled on this ROM.

I installed a few apps, ComicBook Reader, UCWEB, Mini, ThrottleStorage, and a few others. I notice less of a memory leak than it was before, where after a day of some app-ing* (just made the word up) I would end up with less than 9 megs of ram. And this is not even by using the device with memory leaking apps --like Opera (without the close hack)--

I do like this one, as email, text messages seems to work. Although I would like to know, if anyone knows, where I can change the settings of Titanium.

One should be able to pick the own picture/Music/calendar folder/apps rather than the inbuilt ones. I looked up the registry and found the one for Calendar but not the other ones.

All in all I think it is a good build, although I did change the background because the skull, well, I used the phone at work and personally can't have it on my desk with a skull on it. :-)

21189 is working perfect!

I have tried 21193 and it hangs with vista. Then I have installed 21189 Update 1 and works great! I don't think we need to change to 21189 for now. I think the only change is the core of the SO, isn't it?

Minor bugs that i don't know if are solved in 93 are:

impossible to change ringtones and notifications to sounds allowed in windows folder, you need to copy them to rings folder in order to able pressing OK button and leave the window.

For all of you that use the build in lock, like I do, and find the shortened Slide To Unlock irritating. Use the att. cpr file which has the witdh a little bit stretched. You can even build your own lock screen if you like with these cpr files! Just pop it in your \windows folder with a program like Total Commander overwriting the default version in rom.

TAI can you check in a next build whether the cpr contains the correct length?

BTW. TAI thanks for this great rom.

Have fun.

Reminder sound is better when device unlocked

I figured out that the sound problem seems to occur when the device is locked. When the device is just has its screen off (unlocked), I could get the reminder to play back properly.

Update: The sound is much worse when I use the S2U2 third party lock app. Both the built-in lock and S2U2 have this problem badly. I can't lock my phone then.

Pocket Informant calendar - problems

My Pocket Informant calendar entries get to be different from the native calendar. This happens when I edit a recurring event Pocket Informant. Both calendars do not interpret this properly. I don't know if this is a problem or if the WM 6.5 PIM/calendar is supposed to be incompatible with Pocket Informant.

:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] agovinoveritas:
Oh, I found something that is a bit of an issue.

The "TIME" this ROM at least on my Hermes does not show PM or AM as such you do not know if it is 9:00am or 9:00pm so when you set an alarm, which by the way, also lacks the PM/AM option, you never know for sure if you are putting the alarm in the morning or at night.

I found out as I put my alarm for "8:00" thinking it was for morning only to get the alarm to sound at 8:00pm. Thank God for my GF's alarm clock.

However other software which displays the time, such as Opera Mini will help you out to find the correct time on your Hermes. Or if you use a third party alarm software which will also post the correct time.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Evilscientist:
I also had incompatibility problems with the Calander, though my problems were with SPB Diary 2.5.6. With Today plug in activated, after sync (and I think a reset), both Diary calander and main calander were literally deleted (all appointments gone), tasks and contacts etc were not disturbed. Fortunately, this also meant that the calander didn't sync properly with the PC after this point, so none of my data was lost <whew>. It's all backed up with SPB back - which seems to work fine with this build - FYI.

There seem to be several incompatibilites here though. Windows Live 10 doesn't run smoothly at all and often locks in my hands. Also had issues with SPB mobile shell 2.1.5 (used wih Titanium disabled) and Pocket Plus 4.0.2. I know...a buttload of software...but it all works together nicely. Mostly, the Mobile Shell tabs on the today screen were very buggy.

I think all these problems are likely caused by WM6.5 beta/SPB softwarehouse not getting along with each other and the two of them are going to have to sort it out. Overall, 6.5 looks really cool and TAI's doin' great work! Looking forward to more stable builds (meaning from M$!!!)

As far as I understand the 1% battery increments have to be cooked in and can't be added by a cab file. Can you at least cook that in. Also adding a dialer after tends to slow things down for me. Everything else I like to add myself.

hei, i tried your m2d rom, but i can't open my text message, i would know if the newer version of this rom fixed that issue?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vwkess:
Text message works fine in this ROM if you turn off threaded messaging. Not an issue for me as I rarely text and don't use threaded anyway.

Thanks TAI, V2 working good so far! Will post if I come across anything else but so far so good!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Wam7:
Just been testing V2 of this ROM. Nice addition of the 3G dialer for those that need it.

This still has the txt msg problem and some people would prefer to have threaded SMS so turning it off isn't a viable option. I myself use the Palm Threaded app which is much better for threaded SMS and also cures this problem.

The Comm Manager used is pretty buggy as in the V1. More than one item gets selected and it's hard to see if stuff is on or off. I get round this by using Device update and installing my preferred CRC 10 button Comm manager.

It would have been nice if you'd used the same Battery/GPRS/HSDPA icons an in your Manilla2D ROM where it changes colour when activated.

My initial memory after flashing and on first boot up was 29 MB, where did that 31.67 MB come from? ;)

Happy to use Tai's Gold Globe rom while waiting for WM 6.5 PIM to be OK

Hi Tai,

As soon as I started changing appointments with the WM 6.5 rom and Pocket Informant, I noticed that the reminders just weren't happening when they were supposed to according to the calendar.

I replaced this 6.5 rom with your WM 6.1 Gold Globe Full rom. It looks rock solid. Best M2D I've tried. I then restored the PIM using SPB backup. The PIM backed up after I used WM 6.5 is corrupt (at least as far as the WM 6.1 is concerned). Sorry but I think current PIM and backup software is not compatible with WM 6.5. I must admit though I'm liking your 6.1 gold globe.

All the best,

Walker

Edit: Re the heading "....while waiting for WM 6.5 ...": Actually, unless I'm sure the PIM is OK, I'll hold off on WM 6.5, perhaps in anyone's rom. I think 6.5's interface is a big improvement and I will miss it. However I'll be interested in downloading a trial copy of SPB mobile shell 3 ... coming soon. I'm very happy with what I've used of your Gold Globe rom v10 and am using it now. It looks so polished and quick and the M2D animation is the smoothest I've seen. Well done Tai !

White Screen Problem

Let me say first that I appreciate your work and the quality of the ROM shows how dedicated you are to making sure the best you have is displayed to good effect.

I flashed 21189.

Sweetest ROM I ever found, ran great for about 2 days then I started getting white screens. I could reset (using the reset button on the bottom of the phone or removing the battery) and still have the white screen after the power reset.

Then I tried the reset function using the two soft buttons and the reset button followed by "X" on the keyboard and that would sometimes work.

But even then after a short time the white screen would return. After about 3 or more hours of trying I managed to flash a WM6.1 ROM. I chose the AT&T Official ROM.

But the white screen keeps returning and makes the phone unusable until I can get back to a regular screen, which oftern takes multiple tries.

The white screens do seem to be coming with less frequency but they tend to appear at the most inconvenient times. Is there a fix for this? I noticed the mention of "white screens" with one of your posts and prior to seeing that I had assumed it was a problem with my phone instead of the ROM.

Please let me know.

I should mention that I'm using Vista Home premium I suppose.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lorgem:

TAI great work

i have been using the rom about 5 days now. i wanted to report some bugs.

the call history doesn't show the last caller, it doesn't autoscroll to the beggining of the list.

the active sync for outlook doesnt work. it synced the mails only the first time and then it gives out an error.

the frames of the pop out bubbles need some woork to be done.

i also have a few suggestions. the today plug in should be customisable.

it would also be ok to link the pictures on the today screen with htc album (as it allready comes with the rom) and not the wm default ****.

all in all great work TAI and thanks

p.s. i can't get remote desktop to work. can you please look into it (using crc device update version)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Lancealot:
I'd like to report that while I'm digging the new feel of the 89/93 interface, I've run into a few problems along the way with both of these roms.

First and foremost, the biggest issue that I've run into is when using SRS Wow HD. Each time that I install this program and soft reset, the device boots to a white screen.

This is quite peculiar as I believe that I had it working quite well under Tai's v9 update 1 and the white screen only appeared after modifying the registry to enable SRS over stereo bluetooth. Rom 21193 has not been as generous however as installing this application simply crashes the system on bootup. I wish there were a simple way to acquire diagnostic messages while the device starts so as to create a work around for this. If only our hermes had a debug mode with verbose logging to the SD card :rolleyes:

Besides all that, I'm quite enjoying these roms ! .. except for the occasional lockup here and there. I'll continue testing, however this time, I'm going to take a minimalist approach and only install the bare essentials (HTC Home/Audio Manager) and see how well I fare. I'll report back if I run into any more hiccups.

Keep up the great work TAI, you and Josh are doing a bang up job keeping the scene alive with fresh new roms!

Themeing - Get back the original!

TAI,

While Playing around with themes I've noticed that in all wm 6.5 hermes ROMs, once I change the theme from original windows mobile black, the look of the boxes, scroll lines, buttons etc will change and cannot be regained even after setting the theme to windows mobile black. :mad:

could you tell me how to retain/ regain the original look even after changing the themes!

Hi,

this is my 3rd WM6.5 ROM I've installed on my device but it does not run much better than the other ones. First of all I installed and did a HW reset afterwards and everything was running fine. The problem starts with synchronizing WMDC on Vista - the device seems to be connected (icon on top of the screen) but WMDC tries to connect but it takes ages. The first time I've connected the device it just stucked and I needed to reset it. Now WMDC shows the icon and says "Connecting" since about 2 minutes.... I guess something's quite strange here.

I have to say I like to play with new ROMs but in this stage WM6.5 is still to buggy even if I'm not a "heavy" user - already the simple things won't work fine.

Flashed V10 and was all working fine. I wanted to change the clock to be the top of the titanium plugin so installed Titanium customizer. that errored and titanium was then only giving me a white screen.So I flashed the att rom and then flashed v10 again and titanium is still giving me a white screen.I know the problem is titanium plugin as I turn that plugin off and it is all ok.Turn it on again and white screen.

Can you tell if this ROM suffers from

it will help many as these are the major system essential things to keep it running
