- New 6 Cool Themes from Bill Gates

- The menu wouldn't go back to the WM6.1 menu if we change the themes

- Bigger icons in Start menu

- Built-in Microsoft MyPhone (although I've never successfull log in)

The bad news is the memory consumption increase to 40% at stand by mode
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] tricky42:
The X1's screen has 5 times as many pixels as the Kaiser. Without using the X1's hardware acceleration, the lower framerate shouldn't be a big surprise. It's still quite responsive though.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] darkhalf520:
yeah i didn't think bout that one.....

it might sound stupid but....to make manila and winmo 6.5 go faster could we force on them a specific resolution making an exception for internet browsing video playback and the album app, i thought of this because actually the "appearance" of the OS doesn't improve so much with the higher no. of pixels while performance suffers a lot.....that's just an idea.....
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] itje:
im not sure what device you guys are using, but this rom is running damn fast on my sony ericsson x1.

the menus are fast, scrolling damn smooth...for me..

ofcorse, there are a few things that needs to be fixed...im missing the new IE too, but im releasing this as close to source as I can for now, and removing IE and adding another build was not an option right now.

but that can change :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] darkhalf520:
Actually i didn't flash the rom myself i was just evaluating on the opinions of those who have tried it, i will eventually a rom having both manila and 6.5 thought.....any idea on when to expect it :D !?

does this rom support video calling?

any how can i back up all the current apps, themes etc,

i dont have the cabs on my phone or pc, is there another way to perform backup without the cabs?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] itje:
PIM Backup is added as an app in this rom, use it to backup contacts, appointments, calendar etc (remember to make the backup on sdcard :) )

Manila with 6.5!!!!

That's going to be some rom. Still waiting for you to post the Windows Mobile 7 ROM though LOL.

If you can get the Rhodium Manila onto 6.5 with Panels then who could argue about whats the best phone!!!!!:D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] gallous_boy:
the today button doesnt seem to be working
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] knaplullig:
yeahh

now i have a goal for when i get home :D

great job itje you're the man!

and really really looking forward to the next manilla this way :D

i will bug test as soon as i flashed (around 11 same time as yours)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] 69reichertm:
Hey Itje,

I just respnded to ... is WinMo 6.5 faster.

And I say it is not faster than 6.1

The new GUI is nice and runs well on our X1 Baby - but it is not said that it runs fast on all devices.

I think it is great that you release the ROMS so fast. I think it is great so.

What I did not understand why the new IE is missin ? Was it not in the ROM or did you exclude it ?

So, tomorrow I have to go to hospital for 2-3 days and I will have tome to test the ROM.

Right now your 5.0RC newest build is flashed and it rusn without ANY error and I think this is so great - I tested all my stuff AND EVERYTHING runs.

Regards

Marcus
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] BuddyLee:
Yea that troubles me alot, with apps it will sky rocket. Either way i'll download it to see how tolerable it is for me and everyday usage.

Thanks again Itje for your hard work;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] itje:
and what do you guys base that assumption on??

im running manila rom with this build aprx 4 hrs, and im still using 45-50%

what do you expect from new stuff??? that it will add ram and storage???

If you guys are worried that 40-60% usage of ram is to much, THEN I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU DONT FLASH MY ROMS.

The upside with speed on the rom, AND stability..is the downside of that overratet low RAM usage..

I have never run out of ram..so what the frak is the point then??

I can easily cook a rom with less memory usage, but I can assure you..your not gonna like that either...

So stop that meaningless memory/RAM discussion, cause it is only what I said...meaningless..

:rolleyes:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] devalian:
hihi.. i flashed from v5.04 to mustangrom to jacks v3.3 medium then finally bak to wm6.5 rc1... really, wm6.5 is da fastest rom i had..

mayb because no touchflo3d.. but bro itje.. is it possible to add in HD camera driver inside da ROM? hmm, xperia camera works well in well-lite place.. but works like sxxt on dark area..needed hd camera as support.. i still wonder how to add in hd camera driver.. do have da package but doesnt like to cook rom mysself (lazy..kekeke).. or can provide .cab installation for it a?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] devalian:
yeap.. this rom on startup only uses 30%-40% of rom.. which i feel still very smooth interface.. even faster than wm6.1 with hogging touchflo 3d.. i rather use up all ram to boost my device speed.. best is load opera/iris browser/nitrogen mp3 player/gps application 1 shot together.. then i will have instant speed then..haha..

but im not sure why.. msdict load very fast on my O2 Atom Life (624mhz), but load very slow on XPERIA (every ROM i tried) what is da problem actually? i only install 2 dictionary file while 6 installed on atom life..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] big:
ROM Geart! Fast and small.

Thanks Itje

...but

Internet Explorer it's old verson? and can't open web

Can help you download and install Widgest?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] BuddyLee:
Relax dude, no need to get overly excited ... all i was saying for me personally ill have to test it out to see how it is for my daily use. Im not saying that what i am saying is set in stone for everyone. I was only saying for me and how it will be of use for me.

Because for me with touch it some of the basic stuff is there that i would have to run either way that is on touch main screen such as ...

weather

music

photos

So on top of that sometimes i check the subway map with tube 2 or google maps. Have opera running in the bg and such which makes the consumption fly up in the upper 70's and so. I was saying that ill be checking to see how the usage for me is.

You cant say what im saying isnt true, all i was saying was id be testing it to see how it holds up for my everyday usage ... nothing more nothing less.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] itje:
overly excited?? lmao :p

you didnt say it was your personal thoughts..

You said this worries you and that with additional apps it will sky rocket..

this is what I was commenting on..meaningless comments that are based on assumptions and not fact..

Many ppl take comments like that as a fact..

But the way you describe what you ment this time, I have no problem with..

Remember I have to read comments that are well ment all the time, but I cant read between the lines and see what the author of a post was thinking when writing.

Perhaps I am wrong..if so im sorry..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] BuddyLee:
It's all good, truth is i see where you are coming from having to deal with other people's comments. But believe me i meant no harm im actually stuck in with my decision on which rom to take.

I love the manilla because it is extremely slick and i totally love the audio enhancement it has right off the bat + weather.

6.5 is descent but i dont know i guess im used to the manilla interface

and 6.1 is just 6.1 bare bone and u have to build your way up. But I for the life of me cant find a descent audio player ... true there are the morts and cores etc but the interface compared to manilla is kinda weak. I'd settle for the stock wmp but audio enhancements dont work for it ... and if they do its buggy.

Do you know if 6.5 is gonna get audio enhancements like the manilla or is it to early to say.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rpereira:
Nevermind, I had installed HTC Calculator and HTCAlbum which for some reason caused this error, after uninstalling it's back to normal.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] itje:
Im a manila guy..this rom is made for those who dont want to use manila

I have not investigated what ms will bring with future releases of 6.5--

But overal im impressed with the basics of 6.5, as it still is on beta stage.

regarding audio, I have not done so much testing besides that it play my music when pressing play :)

This rom is a sideproject, and I do it because ppl want to try and to use 6.5. I like the look and feel of titanium, but to me, manila is more my "thing"

that is why im currently running a hybrid of this rom and v5 to see how it works out..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Der_Immitanz_konverter:
Itje,

in rc1 i still have this bug, i think you did not notice it yet.

It comes when i scroll domn in dialer contacts, and i also have no finger scrolling. pic attached.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] itje:
try the cab attached
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Der_Immitanz_konverter:
Itje,

no change after soft reset...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] itje:
my guess is that the dialer depends on toucflo (not manila) and 6.5 dont need touchflo for scrolling...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] big:
You try in advandced config > phone > and disable phone skin, reset!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Der_Immitanz_konverter:
interesting :) so i'll have to live with it :)

thank you for the new version, it seems that other bugs i had noticed are removed.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Der_Immitanz_konverter:
Ahh... and i will get the windows dialer? i prefer the buggy htc dialer to the windows own :)

First Bug Report!

Ok so here I go ...

Medium

- Finger Menu doesn't scroll down when using the down arrow (but does with D-PAD), also font looks a bit weird

- Weather didn't worked and displayed a "null" error

Minors

- flickering between the blue & green highlights on the dialer

- no autodetection of my SIM and had to manually run the Connection Setup

- in IE, the startpage Search box runs the File Explorer

- honeycomb isn't filled while on landscape

Think my report will stop there and will revert to 4.5 for work...

Thanks for the preview though!! Surely things will evolve quickly and hopefully before fall...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] theredundant:
xdamatt, did you manage to run Connection Setup? I clicked that but it brought me straight to the today screen
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xdamatt:
As it didn't started automaticly I first installed the HTC_connection_setup cab but the setup process itself looked new ...

Make sure you have all programs closed first, I used QuickMenu to close them.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] theredundant:
Alright cheers, thanks, I'm going to use this beta for a couple of days, I love it. So kudos itje! =)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] khalilsemaan:
Original 6.5 menus

hey itje, is there anyway to remove finger-menu and use the original windows 6.5 menus?? i kinda like the look of it + its finger friendly so i dont think that there is any use for fingermenu anymore..

all in all,,,, I LOVE THIS ROM!!!!!

winmo 6.5 is great so far!!!

unlimited thanks for your great work!!

i actually like this better than touchflo... wicked cool
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] maherb:
Great ROM, I am very impressed with the speed. I like also that there is no lag when playing games ... very impressive.

great job, a small token sent, enjoy :)

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] BuddyLee:
Same, im mainly manilla ... but i guess we'll have to wait and see what 6.5 would bring.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Z3R0-CooL:
to be honest the only reason i like manilla is because of the Updates and Events for facebook
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] thebishops:
That's the one.

If you want any more testers for this hybrid then I'm more than willing to give it a try.

To enable Windows Live "Titanium" Plugin:

Use SKTools to change registry value HKLM/Software/Microsoft/CHome/CwindowsLive value "disabled" from "1" to "0". I can confirm this is working fine on this build. See screenie. I know there's a weather plugin out there but I haven't tested it yet.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] cmloo:
Hi Itje

Here is my personal experience.

I am not a manila person but I believe MS still has some bugs in WM6.5 scrolling. The PIE for this and previous version sometimes does not scroll. From my testing, sometimes it scrolls..sometimes the interface thinks I am trying to highlight the area when i do the "thumb" scrolling. Same thing applies to Netfront browser too
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Abercrombi3:
hey mate in SK tools i have no software folder :(
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] JKingDev:
I'm trying to get into manilla. I am using it now and there are only three things that still really bother me. It does not show any tasks. I use the todo list and they really should be shown on the home screen along with today's appointments. Seems like MS gave tasks the shaft in their new today screen as well. Does nobody find tasks useful? The second thing is that the weather screen, even when the setting is turned on, does not update automatically. It always updates when I go to it, making me wait to see the weather. The last thing is that it is not customizable. Cannot enable third party today plugins inside and no API for custom tabs. Oh yeah and one more small thing is that you can't see the system tray. I hope HTC makes some improvements.

Question, which dialer does this ROM use? Is it the rhodium one or the blackstone one again? Thanks itje!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] rpereira:
Once you install SKTools, use the Registry Explorer to navigate through the registry and make the changes.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] neock:
ok, thanks for this update 6.5 rom

well, try using for couple minutes and found that

MSN Weather is missing

QuickGPS not working

is it been solve in the first 1-40 pages?? :D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] indy.89:
WOW!!

i have been using this Rom for about three days now and i havent had a single problem (touch wood). its very fast a fun to use. everything seems to work fine. i havent had to hard reset it all though i had to soft reset it because i was in-patient and kept pressing the screen and the phone froze. other than that its brilliant.

Gud work itje, keep it up. Now im going to try the new build (5/4/09)

wonder what the difference is...

Wotch this space
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] tricky42:
I've gotta say, this is a fantastic ROM. I liked TF3D for its eye candy, but I didn't really use it much when I needed to get things done. Same goes for the new WM6.5, so I'm just as happy with this. But this ROM is also lighter, faster, and pretty damn stable. And there's something nice about its simplicity.

I am disappointed MS didn't put any tasks support on the main screen. I'll probably use the SE panel during the day and Titanium in the evening, like I was doing with Touch Flo. I kinda use them like operating profiles.

One problem I did find -- when the device is locked and a call comes in, the Windows dialer and HTC dialer both try to handle the call. I ended up turning off the phone skin. The Windows call handler from the lock screen is actually quite nice. (When the device is unlocked, it's just the standard ugly notification box.)

Again, this is a great ROM, and I'm extremely happy with it. I'll be making another donation and hoping Itje won't leave us! =)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] JKingDev:
Which HTC dialer is included with this ROM? Is it the blackstone dialer, or is it the rhodium one with full landscape support? Also could you tell me if the youtube app is included? Thanks!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jkr284:
what an amazing rom, cheers!!

one question, i went through all the included themes now i cant seem to find the rc1 default black one, any ideas, i get a list of 6 but the black theme with the woman is not there??!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] indy.89:
The new build is even better (5/4/9). its much faster and it has made my screen super sensative which is a good thing for me.

PS: there is only one thing ihave found that doesnt operate properly with this rom, Gtrabs "F" series icons all work fine except the reception indicator. it doesnt display any bars except when your in a call or connected via gprs/3g
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] knaplullig:
new titanium weather :D

works great and REAL smooth

for the rest

damn this one is fast :D

love it more and more (but i'm a manila fan)

so can't wait for the new manila rom with this build

have a nice one

Did anybody manage to sync their phone with Microsoft My Phone? Not working for me since installing this rom. Or is the service down? I tried reinstalling it from the web. It keeps saying my password or id is wrong or not connected to My Phone. I'm can login online..

RC1

Hello,

Is there someone else who has trouble downloading the RC1 file? Wont go past 31% ive tried this on several computers. It just get stuck!!!

Is there somewhere else too get the file from?

Best Regards
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fards:
I've been doing some reading and it appears that we can edit the MS new today stuff.

It's pretty much the same as the panels in the smartphone wm6.1 (rose et al).

So do a search for Chome and .cpr files and there's quite a bit of background reading.

(NRG has apretty neat weather panel for it (on excalibur forum), don't know how well it'll work with large screen res though)

It also appears that programs that are triggered by Individual panels are controlled by guid, look at the GUID in /hklm/software/microsoft/chome and check the path in the same GUID in HKCU.

Not had this installed long enough to play with it, but when I get a chance I'll do so.

here is a video of it running on the touch hd - also has big screen - very smooth

NB- i have not tried this rom yet as my X1 is off for repair. is it running as fast on the X1 as on the touch HD?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nente002:
The speed of wm6.5

For me wm6.5 works at the same speed as it does on the Touch HD.

I think this is the fastest working rom yet, I've used Roms about 4 custom roms all where lite ones but I like this one the best.

The youtube question still stands...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] odobo:
great rom Itje~ it started out a little slow when I first flashed it but somehow it start running smoother.... but I have increased the system cache to 8MB in advanced config as well :rolleyes:

one bug that I notice tho... in the system notification it shows I have received email, but on the today screen in the mail tab it didnt show any new mail at all.

also there are always some error popping up on the today screen... I wonder if they come from the programs I install (pocket alarm for 1) and by default it enables today plugin

btw... sorry to hear you are gonna sell your x1.... I will donate when I get my next pay check :D hope we can donate enough so you can keep your x1 as your 2nd device :D
