*gasp* a landcape workaround! Oh my gawd! Where is the darn download link!? :D

Also, will you be sharing the workaround as a seperate CAB?

There are several ROM's that use TF3D as well as standalone CABs that would greatly benefit from this.

A question that does come to mind - isn't it possible to run it on top of TF3D instead of actually disabling TF3D?

By the looks of it a separate application is executed. Does it use the skin files as found in the windows folder, from TF3D?

Another thing that I can't really figure out; what is the major difference between this ROM and for instance Itje's touch Experience?

Ofcourse you each add different progs and perhaps some tweaks, but aren't they - in essence - alike?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Downloadlinks coming soon.

Well, the main difference at the moment is - as far as I can see - I am using a newer SYS and XIP version than itje is. Of course that might change as he releases new versions.

Seperate CAB will be provided.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:
Very promising. Great work on adapting mbarvian's work.

What I would like to know as well, did you integrate any known-to-work performance fixes? For instance tnyttn's SD booster, or perhaps some new drivers?

Finally, UC support? ^^
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
No, I didn't include any "perdormance fixes" as I'm not convinced it makes any difference and I'm quite happy with the performance.

I did include UC, but didn't set up a config.txt myself to test it. However - I don't see why it shouldn't work.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:
Alright. As far as performance fixes go; it seems very logical to me that increasing some allocated memory here and there can speed up the device. But Xperiatweak can do that, so that aside. tnyynt's SD TuneUP has been proven useful though, increasing SD read from 2mb to ~18mb per second.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
I must say i'm quite excited!!! Quick question though. Does this build include the Touch HD Volume control?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Well, I did include some tweaks which have proven useful, like changing file system cache, filter size and glyph size. SDTune etc. can easily be installed by CAB.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Yes, it does. :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:
Great, I'll be waiting for the release! After reading into the manila landscape fix a bit, I understand it basically turns off touchflow and then starts a modified touchflow that only shows the landscape menu. Upon going back into portrait mode, the other way around.

It still leaves one question unanswered though, does it use the standard manila blackstone landscape skin? If so, I'm going to include that in the skin I'm making! (already have the skin files)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
No, thats not exactly the way it is working.

When switching to landscape, the TouchFlo3D todayplugin is turned off and rltoday is turned on. So, if you want to change the skin, you have to edit the png's of the rltoday skin.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
I'm not sure if you have experienced this but when i use the volume control from the touch hd i can't adjust the volume during a call. Like if you are using speaker phone.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
Congrats Chalid, this is amazingly promissing

Congrats

Can't wait to test
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Just came across an annoying bug. Don't know why this occurs now, but when switching to landscape mode, the creen is redrawn to portrait. Don't know why this didn't happen before and will figure this out later today. Have ask for your patience on this to hopefully solve this.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Okay guys, looking good. Had to change the way the script works and use secondtoday instead of rltoday alone. One big gain from this workaround is, that manila doesn't need to be reloaded, because it always stays activated. This means, the whole process is nearly as fast as with the original Manila3D on Touch Pro.

Will release the ROM later today. First have to wrap this up properly.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fatso485:
is the ROM up. the link doesnt seem to be working
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
Nope its not up yet. But we are all anxiously waiting....
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
Really nice, i think lots of ppl want to try this. Nice to you have fixed the landscape issue!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] v1rone:
+1

This is indeed a breakthrough many have been waiting for, very nice work!

A .cab with this fix would certainly be more than welcome :o
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:
That was exactly what I figured, why not use secondtoday! :D Good to see you already fixed it.

Now I do wonder, what if - for instance - your have your screen in landscape and you pop the today panel from the landscaped panel interface; will it be detected and start rltoday? I'd like to know the same for when you exit an application, returning to the today screen. If not, it won't be a problem ofcourse, but it would definately be very cool! :D

Finally, as it uses it's own skin files, can you release these already so I can get to work on them? I will be releasing a seperate CAB with my skin so these can be included if people want it.

EDIT: Oh, and a small addition; I'm afraid I haven't read about SYS and XIP before, what does it alter?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] stellaryt:
waiting for the link:D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] stellaryt:
sleep first....if i can download in midnight seems good...'cause i can flash it tomorrow...these days are not busy of my work...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
I have to say: TF3D is a ***** ... :D

Everything works fine, if the Mortscript doesn't look for the active window (so that the script won't do anything when not on desktop), but when doing that, TF3D forces back to portrait mode ...

Will take time to figure out if it is possible to get this working this way.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] stellaryt:
i really go to bed after didn't see "the *****"
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
So if you're in tf3d you can rotate. When you open a program and close it again it checks for an active desktop and your screel will be rotated to portrait?

Maybe you can check if you opened the slider and rotate the screen again with mortscript:

Rotate(270)

it's quick and really dirty but maybe it can lead to any solution
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Good idea. Will try that! thanks.

The problem is, that TF3D forces Portrait mode. I switch to landscape, the screen rotates, and just a second after that the screen goes back to portrait. Will try another Manila version and your idea. If this works, the download will be here within the next hour ... :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
i hope so, i don't know much about mortscript but i know it has a rotation function.

i would love to see tf3d with landscape, really great work so far
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Here you can see the updated landscapemode with secondtoday:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szQ_c_HyN78
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
Wow that is pretty fast. I didn't expect it to be that fast. Good Work.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] v1rone:
Awesome Job!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
So, just tested it - and it works perfectly fine!

In some cases TF3D forces the screen back to portraitmode. I have no idea when or why - it just does. However luckily this is noted in the registry and the rotate function allows to switch back to landscape.

Releasing this soon ... :)

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gtrab:
Can't wait to put my hands on that "*****" :D !!

Let's give her a try !!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
Hey chalid, do you know how i can get my hands on SYS|XIP 21109??
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Well, of course where any good WM-goodies are ... here at xda-dev ... :)

You can also use the XIP easily by extracting it from my ROM. Shouldn't be a problem.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
Cool!! I think its about time i start contributing back to XDA. Been here for like 4yrs leeching so i wanna start cooking some ROMS. Plus the roms for the xperia are few and far in between. Hopefully I can figure out how to use these Kitchens correctly.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] GOF007:
Few and far between but the quality one is good.

If the ROMs are coming too fast, I(user) will have hard time trying em all :P
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
True but it would be nice to have more of a selection of quality roms. Can't say mine is gonna be quality lol.... But i have high hopes.

This rotation speed is pretty fast even with the motoscript. I'm surprised. I'm gonna have to play around a little more.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:
chalid, I would still like to know what XIP and SYS are. :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
XIP and SYS are the kernel and program versions of Windows Mobile. New versions tend to have lower RAM usage, are more stable and faster than the older ones and of course solving the one or other bug.

21109 is one of the fastest versions I have tried so far. However, don't forget, when trying this ROM, that the whole Blackstone apps fill the Windows folder with more than 3000 files. After a soft reset the system is slowed down significantly by this, but after 1 minute or so, you should notice the nice speed ... ;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] l0rdsheva:
hi, just installed your rom, i'm trying it. A question, ther is a site where i can find info about different windows build? like what's new?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
Man this thing is lightning fast!!!! i wonder what it would be with touch flo as fast as it is with it. I haven't loaded all my progs but WOW......
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:
Alright, thanks. It's looking better and better. And yes, I still find it very strange how TF3D is coded.. as if HTC's programmers were on crack or something.

Also, can you release the landscape switcher as a seperate cab? I'm still prepping my UC so don't want to flash yet, but I would like to try the landscape in advance!

EDIT: Couldn't resist and it's now installing on my brother's X1 (don't worry, I asked first ;)) First thing I notice is opera 2141, why not the newer one? Fards has it.

EDIT2: User customization didn't work, it never ran.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
nice rom, i just installed it. is there a way to remove apps like google maps? i like google maps, but in the wwe version google maps is still german.

Thnx for the nice rom!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
You can just uninstall it like any other program. :-)

I will release the CAB as soon as I've created a single file. May take some days, since I did put too much time into this already.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] smaberg:
the bug i found is dubbeltap to get keyboard up, and dubbeltap to close it
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
thnx i removed google maps.

i found an other bug, the the right button isnt working (like it's supposed to) the button that is below programs on the home screen. It closes programs instead of going to the option that is discribed above.

Untill now the rom is fast, very nice
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:
Thanks, would be great. Can you please also answer my other questions?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3159091&postcount=50

After that I'll do some thorough testing for you.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Bxsteez:
Found a bug with activesync on the device. You aren't able to click anything on the screen while in the activesync window. Not sure why..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Hm ... not sure why this bug is back. Worked for me atfer updating to the new SYS.

However, you can access the menu by double tapping the screen and then normally selecting what you want.

@Angelusz: Where's the link for the new Opera? All the other versions I have tried had some bugs with the keyboard and typing in an adress.

UC included. Though - didn't try it myself. Will check this if I release another version. Don't know yet.

Great work chalid. But will there be a cab file for manila in landscape anytime soon? I have flashed to your cmEX 0.3 not long ago, and i hate having to flash everything again...

thanks
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
Yes, in the next 1-2 days I guess. Have to take care of some things first before putting more time into this ... ;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rotsu:
Awesome man, we all have been waiting for this.

Cant wait for the cab to try it out!!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] v1rone:
I believe that hardware button is mapped to your "today" screen.

Meaning it'll take you back home, however deep you may find yourself in your x1. (It doesn't close apps by the way)

Itje's Touch-IT v2.2 has the same mapping and is actually very useful.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
The close button does the same thing, i think the hd doesn't have that button or something like that. atleast they do the same now. i don't think that's very useful
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
solved it.

use some regitery editor and go to:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Shell/Keys/40C3/]

than go to value, and change the value of Flags from 4 to 14. Than you will be able to use that button normaly.

nvm you can just change it at settings -> buttons. but unlucky enough when you reboot the phone it will be at the old setting again.

any solution accept ae buttons? i don't want to use that because it consumes quite some energy
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
btw google maps is in german because of the region settings, put it at your region and it should be fixed.

only problem is the right button that keeps on going to the today screen
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nEvoo0o:
awesome.thanks so much for the great work.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] shadowmike:
i have this issue as well as this next one.

has anyone fixed the phone and internet name settings so we can go onto x1 wap site ??

on the touck-it rom also had this problem. The wap site checks the phone and then depending on information recieved it will or will not allow the phone to connect to SE's server. so when the server thinks a HD is connecting it gives out an error instead of displaying the page.

The fix i used in touch it rom was import old x1 internet explorer settings in advanved config. but that doesnt work on this rom.

other then these 2 problems i have only had to take my batt cover off twice to reset. before it was 5 times aday.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
I have used the rom some time now and i've to say it's a great rom.

I first had some trouble with google maps in german, but region settings solve that problem. Also the right hard key isn't like it was in the generic rom but that isn't much of a problem.

Only thing I've trouble with is youtube, when I watch something full screen with high quality and the video ends you can go to the next related video. Some times youtube hangs when I do that, I still have sound but can't do anything with my phone. Do more people have this problem and is there any solution?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rotsu:
Tried your ROM, its great so far. But i have a bug with media panel. It does not play videos properly or not play videos at all. I tried videos that i took with the phone camera and non worked. I also tried some AVI video and got nothing. actually the froze on me twice when i try to play them with media panel.

I tried some videos with core player which worked. Im hoping anyone can fix the video playback with media panel on this ROM.

Another bug(expected) is the physical keyboard does not offer word completion cuz of the touchHD soft keyboard installed which miss the physical keyboard up(this is a known issue btw, not sure if there is a solution)

other than those 2 issues, this ROM is amazing. I really hope if you can fixed the media panel video playback.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
I will check it out. But guys, don't expect this too soon. Have much work on my hands and ROM building isn't my priority right now ... ;-(
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Angelusz:

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] EUR1LEC:
Here are some dumb questions.

Is solitaire included in the rom?

My girlfriends playes it all of the time, would be a bad thing to loose it :)

And i have a small suggestion, probaly dumb to but what if there could be some hot keys for a soft reset, usefull when the device has hung it self. Like you hold three keys to soft reset. Almost like you do a hard reset.

This way you dont have to put the battery case of?

Great work anyhow!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] toucam:
Great work, this ROM is such a breath of fresh air compared to my old crappy stock UK Voda ROM, so much faster and responsive. Many thanks for your efforts :)

There's a problem with the X Panel button though, whenever I click on it the phone just freezes, only a soft-reset will bring it back. I have now temporarily deleted PanelManager from StartUp folder and renamed PanelManager folder too.

Just wondering if this could be fixed or is there a way to completely remove all the Panel stuff as I did try to use them for a good few weeks but now find them too fiddly to just run anything from it.

Now if you could add something like remapping that X Panel button would be a very welcome feature ;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] chalid:
yes, solitaire is in the rom.

well, as for now I won't update the ROM anytime soon. However, I ask myself what the hell are you guys doing that you need to soft reset that often? I soft reset the x1 maybe once in 2 weeks. My old HTC Trinity is running straight for 1 month ...

unfortunately, this is a real problem: blackstone keyboard should be just a cab to be added separately, unless you want other users from other countries to have their phisical keyboard to be useless....

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] XavierGr:
Just flashed this rom and I am quite amazed. Very fast but quite stable at the same time. Unfortunately the landscape alternative was quite buggy, gimmicky and slow so I had to disable it. Most of the latest roms I have tried are super fast but crash quite often. Stability is an issue for me and this rom for the time being suits me better.

Only problem that I have is that whenever I write with the htc sip and I press the little keyboard icon to hide it the last letter is repeated. Very annoying, any help to solve this would be great, thanks.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the nice words.

I did put together a fix for the Activesync issue (touchscreen not responsive).

However I did not try this fix because I am running another self made rom without the bug. I can't promise this will work, neither can I promise you will be able to fully uninstall this fix if it didn't work (system files are overwritten). So only risk loving ppl should try this and give feedback if possible.
