Hi Tai,

I just wanted to say how much i like your work. I stopped using german Roms and will use yours. 21202 is very stable and fast. Cant wait for 21500.

Schöne Grüße in die Schweiz.

I'm working on Manila 2D and also blue calm. Thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TAI_Sw:
Thanks dude, you are really fast and great.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ice8lue:
no problem =0) like to support you =D

if you could teach me to translate roms i also could help to multilangualize your roms.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] [BY]onicS:
Hi All,

I'm totally new to WM 6.5. But familiar to WM 6.1

I'm using this ROM to try the new OS. I like it a lot. Like having a new phone.

But, something disturb me is when I open setting then select each setup icon, then finish it (click OK), its always back to today menu instead of previous menu. So I must start again, setting, and choose another menu to set another options. and so on.

Feels like wasting time.

Is there any setting to disable this behavior? Just like WM 6.1.

And, from this latest ROM, my fn keyboard not map to correct symbol. Is it normal?

Exp: when I push fn+W, it will be '?' instead of '@'

But, on prevous build (21198), my keyboard is normal.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hfam95:
Anyone experience problems with time keeping up with this ROM? I ask, because my device will not keep time. Some times when I bring my device out of standby, it will jump several minutes or hours to catch up to current time. (ie went on standby at 1am. I hit power button and then it jumps to 6am(current time)).

Im wondering if the weather plugin is causing this. Any help is appreciated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Jesse99:
As far as I know that's normal, seen it on any WM version when getting it back from standbye.

I must say once again that I just love how fast this ROM is, my Hermes runs faster than my Kaiser now :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zivkong:
I like the current version V12.

Nice and stable rom. Never reset since last flash.

Good job!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pajousek:
How is it with RAM and stuff?

Will work PIM Backup with data from 6.1?

How much stable is it?

I'm waiting for the 21500, it will be my first meeting with 6.5. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] METALWORKS™:
yeah, can't wait for another great Manila ROM, currently i'm using your V10 Blue Calm, and it fits best with my device, thanks again :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrDSL:
Ya me too this titanium plugin is a pain to edit. Even after adding a weather panel and contact panel its still not as nice manilla2d.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hfam95:
can u explain how you did this please?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] METALWORKS™:
ohh by the way TAI, can you put those Smoke2 taskbar icons on the upcoming Manila ROM..? that would be gorgeous looking Manila :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrDSL:
Ahh where to begin..

first u will need to install the weather plugin http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=487090

then u will need titanium config http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=497232

now that will only be used to disable/enable and move tabs up and down.

Then u will need chrome config http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=393104&highlight=chrome

this is for a smartphone so it will not completely work. you will be able to create panels but you will have to enable them the hard way which is through the registry. Once u have the contact panel created and enabled in chrome config then save it you'll have to go into the registry to make it appear.

HKLM/Software/Microsoft/CHome/

there will be two keys under there

ExtensibilityXML and Plugins

when you go in and look at them they will both be somewhat like CClock;CPhone; etc you will want to add the name of the panel u created in Chrome to both of those..Theres some video tutorials in the chrome config thread that will help u in creating them so it might take u awhile to figure it out.

Whatever you do make sure you add the weather tab before you do anything because thats the only way I could get it to work.

good luck..

Just installed this, this is my first 6.5 rom to try.

The IE is pretty crummy IMHO; it's slow and even though I set it to "mobile" it still won't wrap the text. I prefer the old version...any way to get that in this ROM?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pajousek:
Wait ... there isn't any ClearType?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Jesse99:
Except for a few issues that are in the opening post (don't forget we're still dealing with a WinMo 6.5 beta) it's very stable, and fast too.

PIM Backup worked fine for me importing all my WinMo 6.1 stuff.

IE is crappy anyway if u ask me :D

Maybe try other browser like Skyfire or Opera? I use Skyfire and works great for me.

Known issue with the latest version, Tai said earlier it'll be fixed in next rom ;)

For now you can use Schap's Advanced Config (downloadable in Device Update) to enable ClearType in both portrait and landscape modes.

Hi,

do you think that there is a possibility to get the 21500 as fast as the 6.1 Light ROMs?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pajousek:
Well - i just really miss one thing. USB to PC from Opal etc.

Way better than WM5 Storage for connecting device as FlashDrive instead of ActiveSync.

IMHO it has to be cooked in the ROM, because version from cab doesn't work. :(

Can you please add this into 21500?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] speckledpig:
Thanks! Works fine so far. Doesn't support the finger "grab and scroll" as other 6.5 apps do. But that's okay.

Flashed Lite V13 ... we'll see :)

btw. TAI, please, consider adding "HTC Diamond USBToPCPopUp 1.0.18143432.1" or some package like this. It's the best USBtoPC connection (although the popup doesn't work).

In setttings you can choosebetween ActiveSync and DiskDrive connection and it works like a charm.

Found Bug: When you use wheel to scroll in the menu, it moves only in one column.

OMG, TAI, this is the best 6.5 ROM that i ever tried.

anyway, when i open up the task manager in settings, why there's an error when i open it?

Deleted the hex grid in startmenu

Hi TAI,

Very nice roms these 21500 builds. Noticed that the landscape startmenu was a little different from the portrait one. Landscape is missing the grid (to my pleasure). So I changed the portrait one accordingly and made the landscape 4 columns wide.

For anyone interested, see attachment. Just pop them into your windows folder and soft-reset.

whats new in 21500

compared to 21202 ROM.. this rom 21500 has better memory management so far.. program memory starts at 21MB and is freed properly so far once applications are closed ..

settings>>personal>>Phone now has internet calling Tab.

this is all i can find different from last ver 21202

Well - no. You don't get it. The icons after aplying that cpr are bigger => upscale => a lot of icons are not sharp, but blurry. You can't see it from the screenshot?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] irisiris:
yes with default theme some icons are blurry.Theme change tries make it less prominent.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] oltp:
you can change the size of the icons in the cpr files. Making them smaller will make them less blurry. Apperently some icons are larger and still look good upscaled. Others, especially from user installed programs, are smaller.

So size them to your own taste ;)

After install this build, I still have my fn keyboard doesn't mapping with symbol on some key. '@' => '!'

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pajousek:
What's the original size of icons? ;)

btw. the new WM 6.5 icons are very good scalable [maybe they're vector and not bitmaps?] - but the old WM icons + user installed apps sux.

Yes, I must admit that this (21500 Ultralite) is one of the best ROMS I have tried of yours. Excellent work. :) I hate the honeycomb/beehive effect when you press the "Start Menu" and wish I could change that back to how it used to work... is this possible?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] speckledpig:
Agreed. The honeycomb start menu and the IE are the worst parts of 6.5 IMHO. My outlook stopped working (nothing happens when I click on a message (the same thing happened with the text messages). Not sure why. I'm flashing this latest version to see if I have any more luck with it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] METALWORKS™:
one thing i've noticed from this rom, there's no MMS feature or maybe i didn't know how to configure it, please correct me if i'm wrong :D

edit: i also got this pop-up message that says:

"Critical Error.

An unhandled exception has occured. The application will terminate."

what is that..? and how to fix it..?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] zivkong:
anyway, i found a small problem here.

perhaps on my device only. For some reason, I found that the font in the honeycomb (e.g. Today, Setting, Accesories, etc...) seems distorted. Not sharp enough and it looks like incorrect font type.

Any solution for this?

Thanks for your stable rom too

It's some kinda bluescreen-like thing. It just means the application crashed for an unknown reason. What app did you use when you got this message?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] METALWORKS™:
when i run Device Update, after finish soft reset the message starts to appears, even when there's no running programs, it still appears every 10 or 15 minutes, this doesn't happen on V12 though.

Okay, I'm one day into the 21500 ROM and have had excellent results. I still haven't loaded up some of my apps, but I wanted to get the "basics" working and stable and then I'll branch out.

Kudos for a great ROM. I'm really digging the finger flick thing in outlook.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ice8lue:
Yeah I got something similar too. Device Update loves to crash, giving you just a .netFramework Error -.- maybe reinstalling DU would help
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hfam95:
I got a rather dumb question. How do you highlight multiple items (ie in file explorer) in WM 6.5. Seems when I try it the WM6.1 of grabing an empty area and highlighting it just scrolls up or down.

all of a sudden every cab i have tried to install keeps giving me a message that says it was unsuccessful. any solutions? using 21500 lite rom. thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] balupg:
Working Well

I flashed 21500 the day it was launched and since then it is working without a single hard/soft reset and no freezing. Moreover I see that applications are running smoother. My Mapking digital voice used to be all jerky. Now even that works well.

I don't necessarily enjoy the IE, but I could use Opera. The hex menu is smooth, but I wish it will return back to place or page I left it when I launch applications. Now I need to do the routines like "start/accessories/file explorer" every time I want to run an application.

All in all Great work! I think it has reached a point where i can give some rest to the flashing and enjoy for a while.

:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] METALWORKS™:
after hard reset, i tried not to use DU and only install seven (push email), and the message still appears, i guess seven is not compatible with 6.5, now after hard reset again, i'm not installing any programs on my device, not using DU either, just enjoying the basic rom lol
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Wam7:
Hmm, Seven works just fine here... are you using the very latest version as there has recently been an upgrade.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Wam7:
I think there are a lot of us that think this way. This is one of those feature you miss the most when you no longer have it. I am hoping one of the chefs will somehow manage to make it so that you get an ACTUAL menu when you press the Start button. :)
