Hello,

I got rom error on ver2 when trying to install off SD card. It had started to image once copied as it required another rom to be installed to use. Tried downloading twice to ensure it wasn't download.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
What error do you get? I have installed it using the CustomRUU, but it shouldn't make any diffrence. Won't try it now, as my system is running fast and stable :).

Have you formatted your SD card before copying the image on it? Otherwise you have to use the CustomRUU :(.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] farkah:
Well, it hangs on the screen about halfway when flashing ( i mean really hangs, left it for 5 minutes or so - never had this issue before)

I use Linux, so can't really use CUstomRUU until i find a windows PC to borrow. Virtualbox USB support isn't quite solid enough to flash ROMS with.

I've not formatted the SD Card, as every other ROM i try has worked so not sure its the SD Card (actually, tried two just to be sure)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] farkah:
ok, took your advice and formated the SD card... and wahey... fixed it...

this rom is just what I'm after.

Superlight!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
Nice to hear. I can remember that I had the same issue a few weeks ago.

Glad to hear :).

I've just added a few application you may want to install. More details in post #2.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] farkah:
Is your emphasis on this ROM to be as OEM as possible (hence, office Mobile installed), or an absolute minimal WM 6.1?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
So I'm deleting most of oem applications, whereas various libraries remain in the rom.

I'm keeping the rom unprotected, so it is quite easy to add/remove your favorite applications with some basic knowledge.

Some more cabs I made for my own version of a Barebone ROM (from Blackstone OEM).

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
And another couple of cabs. Hopefully I'll find the energy to make a Manila, Start Menu and other cabs as well.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] farkah:
I can't seem to rotate the screen with the sensor, like in Opera (i installed) and also the start menu.

I have reprogrammed a key to rotate the screen.

Does screen rotation work for you?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
Yes, but you have to install an application for that. Personally I'm using Gyrator2, but there are a few couple of alternative applications, like GSEN or FlipIt.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] deepakjohn:
Very many thanks for this! Will certainly help in my cooking:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
If you want rotation to work without third party apps, you need to use SensorSDK package from Topaz or Rhodium. It works for me.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
I haven't deleted the SensorSDK, but there are no applications, which use them, so you have to install a rotation application, something I like mentioned above.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
You have included the Blackstone package, and it doesn't work. I recooked your ROM with the package from Topaz, and rotation works fine.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
Sure it does, at least for me. Maybe the Topaz one rotates the screen itself, whereas the Blackstone one just provides the functionality, which can be used by other programs like Gyrator2.

As I'm not sure what diffrences the Topaz/Rhodium has, compared to the Blackstone, I've just stayed at the Blackstone package, as it works just fine.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
johnpatcher, do you know what packages the Topaz dialer depends on? I'm trying to cook a 1.19 based ROM with minimal changes but with the new dialer. So far I've tried using Video Telephony and Phonesetting, but it doesn't quite work as expected.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
No, I don't know :(.

But maybe you should go the way backwards. Take a unprotected rom (i.e. panosha's Blackpearl), and remove as much as possible without loosing the functionality you are after.

Best regards

johnpatcher
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
That's about how I'm approaching this.

Thanks for your quick reply anyway!

On a similar note, how did you decide which packages to upgrade?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
I've looked through the packages, looked what should be updates (any applications), and checked what could be upgraded (any libraries).

As some libraries of the new roms are buggy (for instance HTCUtil), I have not upgraded them. At all it was a very time-intensive job, as I had to flash it over and over again, just changing a few oem packages.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
I'm proud to announce the release of another version, Barebone 2.1.

I've made some little changes, but I want to share it with you ...

Changelog:

XIP upgrade to version 21042: The build version stays at 21040 as it is a clean WVGA resource of the rhodium rom, whereas I haven't found a good source for 21042 so far.

Replaced some audio/video drivers

Added/Replaced some alerts/ringtones

Registry and file system clean up

Enabled shortcut for the Windows Mobile TaskMgr

Enabled native incall recording

Activated today items by default

All other things remain, so just read the first post for more information about the rom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
Could you share what kind of bugs you are talking about with regard to HTCUtil?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
With the new package you can't change the backlight manually any more.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] farkah:
I use fingerkeboard (from XDA) and I've tried to set the input method many different ways, but it still defaults back to the default keyboard every now and then and especially after a softboot. I read somewhere that TF3D interferes with the SIP change. Have you completely removed all tf3d bits? I'm now using 2.1 of your release.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
No, TouchFlo3d is still in the rom, as it is need for the soft buttons at the bottom of your device.

I'm using SKTools in order to set the default sip, it works just fine and stays changed.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
For the life of me I can't figure out how to make the Topaz dialer work with Manila (any version).

Tried to recook Panosha's 2.1 ROM, and changing just HTCUtils breaks the dialer functionality (among other less important things). This is driving me crazy.

Any ideas what else may be needed?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
Nope, not at all. Maybe you should ask panosha :).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
Unfortunately, his 2.2 broke too many things including this one, so I doubt he knows what to do.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Sir-ay:
Nice

Thanks,

now in German and i like you!:rolleyes:

Sir-Ay
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
I can't help you neither :(, sorry.

You are free to translate it into german. There are even some language packs, so maybe you want to try it?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
I found an oddity in Barebone 2.1: Settings - About shows "CE OS 5.2.21042 (Build 21040.1.6.0)". Which number should I believe?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
Both :). The first gives you information about the xip, which is 21042, the build is the version of the sys folder.

As there was no clean 21042 sys resource for wvga I have used the "old" one.

Now I'm experimenting with the new topaz rom release, and the new released blackstone rom (1.56). I will inform you, if I'm ready to publish a new rom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
I could never really understand the difference between SYS and XIP (yes, I've read Wikis, tutorials on "porting" (what the hell is this really?) etc.), but it's complete gibberish to me. :) I've cooked a few dozen ROMs but barely understand what I'm doing with regard to these two parts.

Anyway, the Barebone 2.1 combo isn't playing well with some Topaz apps. Namely, Album's performance is very poor, although it's probably more related to drivers. I've tried to use old drivers with the new SYS/XIP but got white screen after flashing.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
XIP is a kind of kernel, whereas sys contains all applications included by microsoft:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
So I finally figured what was wrong - the new dialer's smartdialuiext.dll doesn't work with builds older than 21xxx. I just was misled by Panosha's Black Pearl 2.1 screenshots - Topaz dialer never worked there.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
Aha, thanks for clarifying this. And what exactly does "porting" do and why is it needed?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
Porting means to take the xip (or sys) from an other device and use it for the one you actually need (in our case Blackstone :)).

As the XIP is something very generic we can take the xip from every device running Windows Mobile. The sys can just be taken from devices with the same hardware (or at least) screen.

So for the Blackstone we need to take the sys from devices like the Rhodium or Topaz, as they both are wvga devices. Many other chiefs take it from various rom releases and replace some pictures, so they fit on the wvga screen, but that isn't a clean base to work on (for me) :(.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] vangrieg:
Well, that's kind of obvious, but what exactly happens when you "port" a XIP? Is it resized, modified or what?

And than SYS, you can add or delete packages there anyway, why does it need "porting"?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
You'll find some instruction how to port the xip in the forums, its not that easy, as you have to relocate some addresses. But the files itself stay untouched.

The process of taking the sys of another rom is called "porting". In fact porting the sys isn't a problem at all, in some cases you need to run G'Reloc after replacing the sys, so some addresses will get rewritten.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] custardo01:
Which audio drivers will you be using in v2.2 stock drivers with new updated ROM or others?

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
I'm proud to announce the release of version 2.2. I have taken the latest official released 1.56.401.0 rom, and upgraded the sys and xip (taken from the latest official topaz rom release).

As the 1.56.401.0 rom is released with a new spl (1.54), it could be possible that it doesn't work with HSPL (which is still 1.14). As I have already flashed 1.54 I can't try it anymore.

You won't brick your device with trying it out, so feedback would be appreciate. If there are any problems with HSPL you'll probably have to flash the new spl.

The ones included in the 1.56.401, no stutters so far :).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] speed200:
With HSPL I´ve got green screen and stuck at "tap you device":mad:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
Then you have to reflash your stock spl and flash the new rom (1.56.401.0). With flashing this rom, your spl will get updated, so you can flash my rom using uspl.

I know its a little bit complicated so far, but unfortunately I can't do anything about it :(.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] speed200:
So I must flash stock spl (1.14), then flash the new official rom and then this new one using uspl right?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnpatcher:
Yes, thats right. As already said, its a bit more complicated, but unfortunately there is no way around it, as long as HSPL gets updated :(.

You could also try to extract the SPL out of the official rom, and flash just the new 1.54 spl, but this is more tricky, and maybe more dangerous.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] speed200:
Yeah, i think i´m going with the first choice...

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] tmloosbr:
Hi,

I have downloaded the latest Dutch T-Mobile ROM and extracted the ROM, SYS and OEM folders. First of all I would like to know something more about this folder structure. From what I can gather is that the ROM folder is similar to the Windows folder, the SYS folder is similar to the "Program Files" folder containing key windows mobile applications (contacts, explorer, media player, etc) and the OEM folder is used for OEM extras (skins, themes, etc).

I want to remove all T-Mobile skins, themes, packages, etc to create a ultra clean rom. How can I do that?

Thanks in advances

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Nokia 3650:
You have to take the unit apart, and re-seat the screen. It's a problem affecting me too.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ultramag69:
Or the digitizer's about to die, You may need to replace the entire LCD. Happened to me too, started with little alignment problem that ended with no touchscreen...

Take my advice, download remote screen alignment. It allows the alignment info to be recorded to the pc so you can skip the alignment procedure after flashing a rom.

You can navigate by buttons for most things but its a *****. This is a stopgap so you can use your Hermes until you replace the LCD...

Cheers...:D

Hi.

I have a Samsung SGH-i780. I was wondering if there is any 16 GB microSD for this product ? I just now searched in SandDisc.com and their compatibality help shows 8GB as the recommended memory. Does i780 support 16 even ? :confused:

Thanks in advance.

Shahab.
[General Accessories] -PiLoT-:
if its micro sdhc compatible it should do anything even 8 and above and if sandik say 8 then it should do 16 because once you get to 8 and above then its called sdhc
[General Accessories] wmc90:
Works flawlessly.
[General Accessories] junshiong:
Hi wmc90, do you experience anything "slow" during transfering of files or music playback on your 16gb sdhc? Need your advise...
[General Accessories] wmc90:
As long as I don't do any of the transferring over activesync it all goes at a reasonable speed.

Although I only did the transfer of close to 16 gigs once (and I have no idea of the actual time it took) it seemed perfectly reasonable at the time. And the odd album takes less than a minute... always.

I recommend you pick up one of those little sandisk readers with the card.. since they're superhandy; and you'll probably get the best speed out of them.
[Touch HD General] markussiebert:
Hallo Folks,

I think my WiFi-Connection on my brand new HTC Blackstone is very slow. But I had the same problem with my older tytn II.

I have to say, that I am rather hazy about the speed one can achieve...

Here you can get a 10/100/2000 MB testfile: http://www2.qsc.de/dltest/

So I will start and will update this list:

me: 533 kbps

bbonzz: 1750 kbps

Please say how fast you are connected with the internet, so we can except the internet connection.

p.s.: Sorry for my bad english!
[Touch HD General] bbonzz:
tested two days ago with 1mb file -->1750 kbps
[Touch HD General] markussiebert:
Can you tell me what channel you are using.. perhaps it has something to do with it. I use one (next used channel is 11) and alternative for testing 13, but its the same!
[Touch HD General] bbonzz:
11. But i connect to a 20mbps lan, so maybe you have a slower connection hotspot
[Touch HD General] markussiebert:
hmm... i have 16 mbit, so somehow something is wrong

could it have something to do with different radio or maybe i have a different network stack in my win mob 6.1 ?
[Touch HD General] bbonzz:
Have you already enlarged the connection window via HDTweak and enabled WlanG? (last one i'm not sure makes any difference, but surely doesn't harm)
[Touch HD General] markussiebert:
Yes - i have checked the first thing and applied the second thing u mentioned... no differenze

I now tried duttys latest rom... but still the same
[Touch HD General] fredskis:

I know this is probably easy but I have looked everywhere. I have windows vista with outlook 2007. I want to sort my contacts on my HTC FUZE so that the contacts are sorted by first name. Please help me. I know at one time I had a file I could run on my cell phone when I had a MDA and it sorted my contact but now I cant find it. Thanks!!!!

I have a Fuze forgot to update device info from the tilt I sold.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] theomni:
If the contacts are saved on your phone (not on your sim), then what you can do is go to each contact name, select Menu>Edit, and you should see a list of options of come up. What you want to do is go to where it says "File As" and from the drop down menu, select how you want the name to be displayed. for example, do you want it as "Last, First" or "First Last"

I had the same problem as you, but when I changed the format of the name like that, it all got sorted through first name.

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Kizmet:
So... because you've all helped me learn much about my new Blackstone.. I thought I'd contribute this theme:

It's pretty basic: just a clock, a background some modified frames and tab icons.

All graphics were plundered from free sources.... As you can tell I was playing with transparency. :-)

To use it please rename .theme.zip to just .theme and install with diamond tf3d or just copy the files into your windows directory.

Anyway.. I don't use 15 tabs so if anyone notices icons in the wrong place please tell me and I'll switch them over.

Also installed and relevant:

Diamond TF3D config - to install the .theme file

Cyprus LTD Colored Top - For the pretty topbar icons

NisseDILLIGAF 3Iconmenu - To remove extra tab icons

NisseDILLIGAF NoCurtains - For no curtains

Aside from that.. hope you like.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] superkit1234:
good....thank you.

i want 15 tab...can u made it?

sorry my bad english...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Kizmet:
All the icond for extra tabs are included.. but may be the wrong way round! Let me know and i'll swap them.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] JUSMEJOSE:
=[

Im new to all this...do i jus drag n drop to my memory card??
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Kizmet:
The best way is to create another folder called Themes inside your My Documents folder and save the .zip file attached in there.

Then download a program called Diamond tf3d config (you can find it here on xda with a quick search) Then use the programs installl themes function (it's in the appearance tab)

That way you can switch easily between themes without needing to install and uninstall cabs all the time.

:)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] liav12:
i dont see the tabs in transparency mode... why is that? :( its all grey instead like the defalut one.

do i nned to use special manila? or program?..

your theme is really beautiful!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Kizmet:
Thanks. :)

You still have your tab curtains there...

You can use either or both of these cabs to get rid of the curtains.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] liav12:
Thank you!

works great with the first CAB file you gave me

what does the other one do?
