Thank you Shaks, reading the changelog, seems this ROM will be the best one again :), congratulation.

I just saw this post, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3182847 and I want to confirm.

I'm flashing to 3.20 and posting my comments later.

Any news about Opera/Flash ? I did try the solutions posted here, can't get opera to work with flash.

I want just to say that lot of the applications installed on Storage can run again after flashing new ROMs without reinstalling them as tomtom, realplayer, quickmenu, ... and lot of others, just try the ones you are using. What you have to do is just to copy the icones after flashing (using UC), this will save you time. I do lot of test and I know that can help.

Thank you iRiKi. But I have to say, that this did not work for me :( I don't know as I'm running lot of thing, I'm not sure what can cause the problem.

I try to apply what to suggested just after flashing the new ROM and I repport later.

Thank you.

pls launch version with touch flow HD
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
Sorry, I have absolutely no plans to do that as there is no major benifit except for a stocks tab.

It also introduces far too many other issues.

Try CT's rom as he does a great HD version
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] rafabad:
there is stocks tab cab?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
No stocks tab available for diamond manila as far as I'm aware.

Thanks

Just want to say thanks, Shaks.

I'm new to flashing, but I was getting frustrated with the 1.93 ROM that I seemed to be stuck with. On the latest HTC update, it says my device is incompatible (mine's a 2G diamond).

I was a little nervous about things going wrong. After reading about *many* ROMs, I decided to go with yours.

Flashed from storage without any problems, and the ROM is rock solid. The phone's a joy to use now. Tested it for a couple of hours now, and everything seems to work great (haven't tried GPS yet, been indoors).

The only things I needed to install were Gyrator, TCPMP and Levelsight. Great choice of programs.

Using radio 1.09.25.23, Airtel India.

Google maps remove?

Hi Shaks, big thanx for your ROM... it is the best of all I had in my Diamond....:)

But I have one question: Can you remove Google maps from your ROM?

Why?

1. Because I always use newer version.

2. I would like to use Internal Storage as a default install directory.

Or how can I make a change the default output directory of Aplication data for Google maps without Uninstall/Install proces? When I use sattelite view then the data consume very much of my Phone memory / about 40 Mb /:(

Can u help me, please?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
Can't answer your last question regarding default directory as I haven't played with it.

Ininitially my roms had no google maps in them

However I had a few requests for it so I started leaving it in.

Google maps is uninstallable so just uninstall it then install the new version. I'm pretty sure that's easy enough.

I'll take it out if their are enough requests for it otherwise it stays in. Maybe time to do a poll.

wow! i'm so excited i found a bug in your perfect rom!!! :D

if i set timezone (+1gmt berlin/rome) - i live in italy - it keeps turning me on (+1gmt prague/budapest)... nothing major, of course, but that's not my timezone.

did i win something??? :p:p:D

ops... i forgot to specify that i'm still using 3.10... gonna upgrade tomorrow...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
Just switched timezone to berlin/rome. Saved settings. Went back into timezone & it was still on berlin/rome.

That'a on 3.20 however nothing else has changed which will affect it.

I wonder if it is anything to do with the setting I have put in for daylight saving? Daylight saving is enabled through advanced config as I'm in the UK.

Try disabling daylight saving thru advanced config and see if it helps.

When does it reset it back to prague/budapest? After a soft reset or immediately?

Regards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
Cabfile is not required on versions 2.30 and later. If you are on an older version I can repost it when I get home.

Regards
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ernexto:
no way... it switches immediately to prague/budapest.

in advanced config i changed: show daylight saving time notifications... right?

the other option was already default.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] liamhere:

Hi

I've added it back to the original post

There you go:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3098300&postcount=97

Thanks liamhere. Let me know what you think/any improvements you suggest. Regarding the support I felt it's time to give back to the community. I spent too long being just a user when I could have been giving back especially as I have been using these devices for years and trying custom roms for as long. Started with the original Orange SPV - super buggy & slow but was a big change from the n*kia's I was used to! Not used a n*kia since.

In the 2.00 rom the setting for:"Automatic Daylight Saving Switch-Over" was disabled as default (even though advanced config shows this is not default) so I set the rom to enabled. Try switching that off.

I have tried changing my rom to Berlin/Rome and it always works OK. On one occasion when I switched back to London it had set itself to Prague however I have not been able to replicate it since. It is a very strange bug that I just can't replicate here. Maybe something else causing it? Do you use any other programs for syncing time?

How did you get on with Italian roms?

Wow fast Rom and also fast reponse(to questions) ? many thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] wile e:
Was using Swiftbl's ROMs since the begining but as he stopped developing and there were still issues, I looked around and tried a few different ROMs available. Have to say this is as close as I found to what I like and it has been very stable and fast. Many thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
Good news. I was a long time user of swiftbl as well and only started cooking when I noticed he wasn't coming back and the 2.00 roms were such an improvement.

I was using dutty's roms and whilst they were very very good, they were not to my taste. If swiftbl had done a 2.03 based rom I probably would have never cooked at all.

I really should be in bed now!

new improvement on uc by Dia Duit ROM v09_pre9

Steps to proceed with this ROM installation:

before flashing make a called "Backup and Restore" folder in you BIG storage (that one of 4Gb), then (inside it) a called CAB folder where to put in all the cabs not included in this rom (or your personal cabs), the ones you wish to install as extra into Main Memory (look also here for other extra cabs) & for finish create inside the CAB folder another folder called CABi, into this one you can put your cabs you want install into "Internal Storage / Storage Card"; if none of these folder will created by hand the system will do itself at 1st boot then you can populate it for the next upgrade or a hard reset

download the latest Dia Duit rom from one of the mirror specified at top page and look in my signature for the fastest upgrade procedure

the system will create a directory called "Backup and Restore" (if you haven't created before), inside you can find other folders: Scripts, pimbackup, MAIL, CAB (inside this you can find another folder called CABi)

after rom installation an automated procedure will ask you: configure automatic RAM recovery; remove ActiveSync time change queue (stop popup every 5 min); font set choice, left/right softkey configuration, install all cab found in the CAB folder mentioned above, load pimbackup restore + tweakPers script and for finish reboot to apply changes (all these questions occur only for 1st installation of course)

once your cab installation is completed and the reboot phase is done you can open tweakPerm (a simple notepad is enough) and read carefully the comments inside, take inspiration & make changes (copy/paste) in the tweakPers script (an example is here); all these scripts are independent, so for example you can use tweakPers at any time, after every hard reset or a new flash the only one that wont touched is that one, so this is the main reason why your personalization should go in that file

then you can re-organize shortcuts in your "\windows\Start Menu" directory to fit your needs, then run the script "backupStartMenu", this will make a copy of your "final" start menu directory, useful to preserve your original Start Menu structure

the last one is a folder (always under "Backup and Restore" directory) called "pimbackup", under this directory will be saved automatic pim backups (contacts/sms/call logs/et cetera)

so shaks can u build the uc compliance to Dia Duit ROM v09_pre9
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
That is not actual uc but something suiller has made himself. I am perfectly happy with UC at the moment as it allows people to move between roms.

It works perfectly for me no problems. The only problem I have with it is it won't install programs to internal storage, only to main memory however I only install 4 programs on top of my rom so I can live with it.

If I was to include it would need alot of work and permission from suiller to have in my rom. Personally I think I will stick with UC so it's compliant. Suillers method is unique to his rom and does not allow you to move from one rom to another like so many people do.

P.S if you have problems with uc, please post in the forum rather than pming me so everybody can help you not just me and provide more details.

v3.20 flashed--can't get GPS fix...

Yepp, after flashing v3.20 I can't get a fix, neither with google maps nor with the HTC GPS tool. I flashed it twice to make sure it has nothing to do with the flashing process and reset it once. I checked the "External GPS" settings and read quite a lot on GPS quirks, and now I just don't know what to do.

I tried with the HTC GPS tool cold and hot starts, erase memory, set baud rate to 4800, and yes, it's clear skies and I went outside to check...

Anyone has an idea what I could do to get a fix?

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] clone.x:
Hi, which version of Radio do you have in your Diamond? I flashed all Shaks ROM from 2.00 to 3.20 and never had the problem with GPS fix.

YOU SHOULD ALWAYS PERFORM A HARD RESET WHEN FLASHING TO ANY NEW ROM. YOU DID IT?

From Dutty´s ROM thread:

GPS

To make sure you properly get a GPS signal. First run Quick GPS.

Start > Programs > QuickGPS - NOTE: Some users are able to acquire a GPS fix after running this.

Hit download and when it’s done it ok

Now run HTC GPS Tool

Start > Programs > System Tools > HTC GPS Tool

Click Open and then click OPEN.

Click on the Satellite tab and wait till the bars turn green once this happens you will have a GPS fix.

·You can also verify the this by clicking the information tab and wait till you have a Latitude and Longitude fix:

Now you can use your GPS software.

today a wierd thing happen to my phone on the new 3.20 shaks rom first time ever i use the wm standard dialer and no htc volume only standard one

friend called me phone then went to hit the answer button phone stayed vibrating anyclue what this is from ??:):(:confused::D after that did a softreset then fone was fine again my fone only got four other programs installed as well and swedish keyboard layout free up ram sktools full version loudtalks throttlelock so those what i got installed and bunch of games to sit around the officceee
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] gatogringo:
Thanks, and yes, i hard reset it after flashing and once again after having the GPS problem. My radio version is 1.00.25.05. GPS worked before for several months. It seems however that many diamond users experience GPS problems and the fixes range from removing the battery to unchecking "incoming beams", and many others... but none works for me... maybe i flash a newer radio (any recommendation?) as well and then a different ROM; Shaks' ROM is awesome for me otherwise...

Thanks also for letting me know that my problem is most likely not linked to the Shaks' ROM.

If you have any other suggestions, let me know!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arkavat:
I don't quite post in forums, but this ROM is quite good and deserves praise.

I usually have to do a lot of tweaks to get a ROM to my liking. Although I don't post, I search a lot on this forums and I have, now, collected a set of CABs I use each time, I flash my diamond (or in the past, Elf). I proudly announce, that with this ROM, I had to use just 2 of my 12 CABs! No ROM is so close to my liking.

I just need one more setting to make things (almost) perfect for me.

[Q] How to re-enable keypad tones (or, if you prefer to call it, dial tones)?

I know many don't like the annoying DTMF tones, but, for touchscreen phone, it serves as a feedback notification.

:) I feel stupid now...

classic example of what happens when you try to act too smart!

I was searching for registry tweaks... and completely ignored standard windows mobile setting options.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
That is wierd howeve I have had this on other roms before. I think it's probably just windows mobile playing as it can do on any rom. It's not a perfect system by far anyway. Still has someway to go for it to be fully usable and catch up with the iph*ne in terms of usability. Keep an eye on it and see if it does it again.

Well said guythomaz!!! Well said!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think clone.x has pretty much covered it all. I use 1.09.25.23 radio rom with my phone but try a few. Atleast flashing radio roms does not hard reset your phone. I've not had any problems with gps at all.

I always ensure quickgps has uptodate data as not having this leads to no fix. That is all I do to get a fix. Today (after a hard reset last night) I got a gps fix in a moving car at 30-40 miles per hour in town roads in about 1 minute which is good for a moving car and the phone had not received a gps signal before. (subsequent fixes are quicker)

Maybe there is something wrong with the flashing of your radio. If you are happy with your current radio try reflashing the same version.

No changes have been made to the rom that would affect GPS. If all fails try a different rom (or maybe original 2.03) and see if it works. Revert back to mine if it does and see if it still working. You seem comfortable with repeat flashing so maybe try that.

Hope you get it sorted. Again I don't think it's the rom probably something else maybe corrupted or something. I have not even had to change any settings in htc gps tool or in control panel to get a fix.

Also to everybody else who has posted today who I couldn't reply to, thanks for your feedback. Good to know the rom is stable for you & fast with apps you use!

Rogers Name Display

Hey Shaks,

I'm on Rogers in Canada and we have something called Name Display which shows the name of the caller even if the number isn't in your address book. From the reading I've done it looks like you need to cook the Rogers rilphone.dll into the ROM to keep the functionality and it doesn't have negative affects if your carrier doesn't provide the service, and who knows maybe you'll discover your carrier has the capability but isn't offering it. So my question is would you be willing to cook it in or would you rather I try to cook it in on my own?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] shaks1979:
Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to test it so my recommedation would be to try cooking. Feel free to recook my rom and add it in. There are some good guides on here for that.

Hi iRiKi

It's fully uninstallable on the latest versions. Also no reasons it won't install to internal memory unless there is something wrong with the cab/setup.

As long as you uninstall it only thing left behind in the rom is a cab file.

Phone slider can be removed?

Hi Shaks,

Using your 3.1 absolutely satisfied.

One thing I would like to ask you. The slider for incoming calls and of course also for ending a call, in my personal opinion it is a nice gag but can I remove it? Can I have the standard buttons for accepting and ending calls? Is there a cab for changing to standard functionality?

Thanks,

Java and Opera-Mini

Thanks for the ROM. It is the one and only ROM upgrade I have installed but its like having a new phone.

There is one problem which wasn't on the stock ROM (UK Orange 1.37) but has made Opera-mini almost useless.

Java or Opera-mini randomly but quite frequently drop out of full screen mode and therefore hide the two soft key buttons at the bottom of the screen. This means bookmarks and back button etc are unusable. It seems to be particularly bad if I am listening to music at the same time.

It isn't a major thing because Opera itself is so much better in this ROM but sometimes Opera-mini is just enough and it really flies. I'm just mentioning it in case anyone else has this issue and has a fix.

THanks

Nick

Great ROM

I used the ROM 4 or 5 days now, and it was very stable. Everything is fine, UC works well. Thank you Shaks.

This ROM is perfect for me.

I was using SwiftBL ROM too, and as I see lot of the members switched here, Great ;)

I saw some posts asking how to get UC to install cabs direct to the storage, the only thing I found is to edit the CAB and force the installation to the storage, If some body have another solution, please can share.

For now, I'm using Sashimi + UC
