[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Barguast:
In that case, the rules are being broken here. I held off replying in this thread thinking that is someone is daft enough to pay up front for the possibility of free software, then to let them get on with it.

But seriously - you're being taken advantage of. I don't care if udK is an awesome ROM chef, he still seized upon the opportunity of having the only working version of Manila 2.6 and thought 'I can get some money out of those suckers for this!'. This is free software, and he didn't write. Don't encourage him.

I suggest everyone that donated ask for there money back... not that I think you'll get it. Save your donations for a chef who knows that only quality work should be rewarded.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] hyellow:
It's just a shame that people want to see money for their hobby. It's a hobby right? cooking rom's, for yourself, for other people to enjoy, to be acknowleged, to have reputation. You don't actually do this for a living right?

When people enjoy your roms and are sincere enough, you'll get rewarded, and if not, well... people still love you for your efforts nonetheless... it's a bad habbit to start asking for money, it's a sin actually.

But what if other cookers were following your example? what will xda-developers look like one year from now.

You chould consider yourself as an example, of course, not the wrong way like you are doing now. I feel sorry too for all those people that already donated. what if your target of 300 euro's won't be made, then ofcourse, in line with your stance right now, you won't be updating your xperia prj and therefore those who have donated, won't see a thing. It would be fair then that you gave back their money.

Recently I donated to a chef, whose Rom I'm not been using at all, just because I like the way he helped out the community.

Now a few great chefs has left the building, just because of the frustrations this board can sometimes get you in.

Maybe you should start a paysite, ask a little fee uppon registration.

I'm so sorry for bashing you right now, i dont want to, really, i might be risking a warning or even a ban for such behaviour, but something just didnt feel right. but i also want to carry out a message for all those other who are starting to cook not to be selfish. I can't cook roms,but if i could, i'd be more than happy if i could share it and get all the compliments for the work i'd be doing. That would make me proud.

> udK, come back to earth... earth...earth...

@Rotastrain: Thanks for the quote, this is what i hinted at, just could not find it to link at it.

Thx for pointing out he received the X1 originally donated to Dutty, I did not get that part..

Nail, Hammer: Bang!

I think this is precisely why Dutty got 2nd thoughts after receiving the donated X1. It was not his primary device, and he could not make ROM's for it with the same love and dedication like we're used from him.

This way it becomes work instead of a hobby, and apperently udK feels he may get paid (in advance) to do this. Especially because he's asked to do this for a device he did not choose for himself.

No hard feelings from me towards him though. This is a logical result after pushing a device around asking chef's to spend their (free) time on making a ROM for it. Depending on how long it wil be supported and considering how much time wil be spent on this work, it's not even a commercial price. But that's beside the point!

Besides that: i'd get pissed if I put a lot of time in debugging earlier mentioned ROM.

Commercial transactions may break up friendships and this forum in the end. :eek:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] marco_:
This cursed X1 won't let me go..

@ udK:

If u don't feel like making ROM's for the X1, maybe the best thing to do is selling it off and donating the benifits to XDA. This thing seems cursed as it has brought only the worse to this forum and destroys reputations.

If, (and only if,) you feel like it, we'd be very happy if you would donate the code/packages, so others, who are eager to work with it, can port/adopt it for the X1 kitchens.

As far as the donations: go have a beer.

As the Greek say: When a man drinks wine, he makes peace with himself.

;)

But that's just my five cents..
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] NotATreoFan:
Requiring donations in order to release a ROM is NOT PERMITTED on XDA-Developers.

As pasted a few posts up, the OP is violating Rule #8 with regards to accepting donations. These rules are not new, so there will be no further warning beyond this one.

A 3 day ban has been issued, and any further soliciting of donations in exchange for the release of a ROM or software will result in a permanent ban.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Klaus1960:
Look at Agent 47 -- he does not even ask for a donation!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] natedastate:
downloadlink ??

where is the downloadlink to the rom ?!?!!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] newstar:
he is the man , i think we must pm him for donation as i think he is making leading and best roms for us
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
keep the thread on topic please

and for ppl who want 2.6....here, try this

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] natedastate:
where is the downloadlink to the rom ??

please can someone give me the downloadlink to udk's rom , i dont find it yet, stange...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Lokatho:
THE ROM WAS NEVER RELEASED, AND udK GOT BANNED BECAUSE HE ASKED FOR DONATIONS UP FRONT!!!

Clear enough, please read before posting twice....:p
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] natedastate:
aha ok sry then...

but why do everybody say "great rom, very fast rom, beautiful rom blabla" if its never had been released ??
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Lokatho:
Because his first releases where really fast and beautiful, so al the talk is about earlier releases.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] THE GRIZZ:
banning udk is stupid. the last thing we want is to alienate our talented members. a mod should have talked to him an ask him to remove the request before taking extreme measures
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] hyellow:
udk is a senior member already. he should know better.though i never wish he was banned, but rules and regulations apply for us all. talented or not, asking 300 euro's of donation to have his car fixed is obvious dubious. i don't see any connection between his car and xda. He should have removed or edit his post, asking for money, himself before things got out of hand. He had the chance to do so a couple of days now... even when the post came across mentioning rules and regulations didn't seem to bother him, unless he had already left te xperia section. obviously, no links to his roms are to be found anymore in the first post, maybe is making room for his project, maybe not... we'll see. I swear, good that this has happened, for if not, what udk be asking for his contribution in the future... or other chefs?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] NotATreoFan:
This thread will be reopened once the ban expires. Until then, nothing productive can come from it.

Now allow me to explain the reasons behind the temp ban a little more clearly. udK was banned for 3 days because he violated one of XDA's rules that forbid charging money for a ROM. Nobody registered on this forum owns the rights to Windows Mobile, and charging money in exchange for a free ROM release, enters into grounds where XDA-Developers is not comfortable being.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jackleung:
I think udk forgot to update the registry when he is using the Rhodoum Wifi tools (happened to me all the time. :) ) Add this reg:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\MyCpl\9]
"Description"="Power"
"File"="Powerexe.exe"
"Name"="Power"
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] orsom:
thanks for the info,

how to have the new start program menu, or the Manila programs shortcuts ?

the rom will be complete then
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] udK:
Ops :D

Thank you, fixed.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu]
"EnableManilaStartMenu"=dword:1
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] orsom:
Thanks for the answer udK, just another question, I installed the original Xperia dialpad (better to my eyes and I don't care videocalls) but it seems not to see conctacts names,

best rom so far
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] theredundant:
is there a way to add programs tab in manila? cheers
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ninja.rogue:
@ Theredundant:

do you mean this? :confused:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] theredundant:
No actually, that's enlarging or making start menu LIKE/SIMILAR to Programs tab of manila. I meant, a proper tab along the menus of weather,messagfe,mail etc
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] MykeChester:

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] theredundant:
Yeap tested it, and worked :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] p_nair:
I download it to my laptop & convert it to cab. file for easy installation. Then, i transfered to the mem. card cos my phone mem. cant accomodate this file. will it work if i install it through mem. card?

p/s:the file was converted through IZArc software........
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] CyPh:
You tried to convert a ROM to a cab? A ROM will erase all files (format the device) and install a new and fresh windows mobile with applications (well not precise but to explain a little). So you can't make it into a cab cause a cab needs windows mobile to run. Probably the only thing your converted cab will do is copy the ROM file to your device
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] nawfalah:
Hi udK,

THanks for the rom its great. have you considered doing a wm6.5 rom?

thanks

Nawfal
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] thazlett:
ahh an even better solution, cheers!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] guap:
omg lol

thank you udk, i will take a look this weekend... glad to have another nice cooker for our xperia ;)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] orsom:
keyboard

Hi udk

Rom works fine, but hardware keyboard does't see italian setting, I edited the reg key with country code.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] THE GRIZZ:
i had low expectations before flashing this a few hours ago seing that its the first beta of a new se x1 cooker over here . i am very surprised on how good this rom turned out to be. really great work thanks UDK

this needs to be be tested by much more people to find more bug. seems perfect to me so far

p_nair, what the HECK are you trying to do. please please dont try to do anything before reading the wikis. or better yet just use the stok rom its not really THAT bad
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] lusephur:
not sure if it's just me, laptop running linux, on previous roms i could connect and use the x1i as a disk drive (it's in the settings) but on this rom when i go to usb to pc connection settings and select disk drive it says ''This feature needs a memory card inside your device.Please insert one first before using this feature''

but a memory card is in the device and it is being detected by everything else, picture gallery, mp3s etc,

hopefully it's something that's easily fixed.

other than that, excellent job.

i love the new camera software on this rom, and the network radio driver must be the best i've seen, it always connects, no loss of signal i've found so far since flashing this morning.

edit,

found a solution, got a cab from the installer folder supplied in the mustang rom titled USB to PC POPUP mass storage and it now works fine.

now, is there a way to lock the device -- pressing the lock button just gives a beep, and nothing else :(
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] thazlett:
a bug?

found another bug i think.

I don't know the correct name for it so bare with me. In landscape mode, someone phones you and you can either answer/ignore. On mine the screen was all just black!. Anyone else got this?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
i think it cool......lol

maybe he can someday find a way to dual boot x1.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fards:
If you use the lastest builds of Synce (I'm on ubuntu, jaunty alpha) then it'll sync without going into USB mode..

Synce PPA

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] xmoo:
Good luck with the rom coocking bro.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] lusephur:
thanks for that, didn't realise synce was ready for jaunty (running since alpha 2 myself)

but that wasn't the problem, the problem was the x1i running the Syrius rom not detecting the memory card when disk drive option was selected in USB to PC options. Which I managed to solve on my x1i by installing the USB to Pc POPUP.cab -- if it's ok with the original thread poster and not against the rules i can upload the cab to this thread for others who have the same problem, it's not my cab though i just took it from the installer folder that came with the mustang rom

i'll have a play about with synce and see what's been changed -- i haven't used it since i changed to jaunty last --- feb? jan? i can't remember.

Cheers, Luse
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] CyPh:
All is very fast and stable

Btw, if I may ask, how did you get monday to be the first day of the week in the calender tab? You are the first one who (at least of the roms I've seen/tried) has done that.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] netsurfz:
Uploading Beta 1? Or did you mean Beta 2?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] udK:
BETA2 online, test it!

Have fun.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
oops. found ans 2my 1uestion
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fatso485:
just flashed beta2 didnt have enough time to test properly but this is some of the issues i came across

-the htc camera is set to 5MB

-the SE camera is not the latest version with gps and auto flash

-active sync is buggy and does not respond to touch

-there is no programs tab in touchflow and icant enable it

-there is no compact quirty in the keybords

-does this has the latest 3D and flash acceleration drivers fron itje 5.04. the finger friendly menu seems a bit jerky compared to itje rom

-touchflow scrooling does not seem seem active in wm programs or settings
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] agent_47:
they r both caused by biotouch.exe.

u need 2replace the biotouch.exe n all its dll with files attached in biotouch attachment posted by fards in itjes 4.5 rom. this was a prob in his v4 . search that thread

or go to http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3461633&postcount=1798
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] THE GRIZZ:
in addition to what was mentioned i noticed

-first boot no screen alignment

-hardware keyboard does not type the correct symbols. not sure what layout was used

-no mail gestures or kenetic scrooling

-weird hardware issues with keyboard and opera

-no panel manager and the button is not mapped to someting else

i find the rom to be quite snappy
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] :
Found some small bugs.

x The sms tab is suffering from the same thing as itje's Touch-IT roms are - the reply box is overlapping two or three of the last messages in the conversation. It's really annoying and I know only some have this problem, hmm. Tough luck for me I guess.

x XperiaTweak2 won't install. I tried reinstalling .NETFramework 3.5 to no avail.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
Great rom, I am still on the beta 1.

When I raise the volume with the volume rocket, the last adress I typed in Opera displays for a short ammount of time at the top of my display. Not important but it's a small bug =).

I also have some trouble with entering an url in Opera with the hardware keyboard. Opera disappears all the time. With soft keyboard it goes okay.

Except some small bugs this is an awsome rom, great job!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] orsom:
Another much appeciated testimonial; thanks for Your work, rom works flawless, still using beta1
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] foxyn:
I second that, but updated to beta2...btw what is the keyboard used on this one. Any chance to get the cab?;)

Thanks for your good work:D
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jo3n:
I have flashed to beta 2, its great. It looks like its a bit faster and also the new keyboard looks and types very well.

Only trouble is still Opera, typing an url with hard keyboard is working. But when you want to type something in a textfield on a website. You can only type the first letter, than the soft keyboard disappears and text selection is off or something like that. Atleast you can't type anymore.

I think it's Opera and not the keyboard, because it's the same with the normal keyboard (xperia keyboard). Something in Opera disables the text input when the keyboard is hidden.

The keyboard hard keyboard layout isn't good btw, when pressing the function key (fn) all the function keys are messed up.

But like I said before, the rom is quite awsome. The Opera bug isn't that annoying. Great work :D!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] marathonpacific:

Ups, yes, it's missing.

You can find the fix at the first post ;)

I hope this help.

Do you have any clue about how to solve this issue?

Running this baby now since 2 hours and it feels blazing fast and the new WiFi manager works like a charm. But i noticed some things:

- Highlight in Notification Manager is blue while the rest in TF3D is green (not important/bug or whatever)

- a sms sent from the tab in contact manager isn't received by recipient

- the device (screen) doesn't wake up on received sms (don't know if that's on purpose though)

- No Disk Drive option in USBtoPC (solved by installing the Mass Storage fix cab)

- Double Power Settings in all settings

There are two "power" icon within the system tab in all settings. And both icons link to the same setting.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] adeba:
thx for your rom.

i can confirm this bug:

- a sms sent from the tab in contact manager isn't received by recipient

and i think the reason why the sms cant send is that the number is supplemented by the land code, in my example 49 for germany. so when i save my numbers with 49 from myself automaticly, i have a double 49 land code and the sms cant be received
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] udK:
Thanks for all the feedback, problems solved, I will release soon the fixed ROM, unfurtunately the SMS problem can not be solved by a cab :(
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] AndiCP:
does this mean SMS can't be sent at all?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] CyPh:
it will be sent through the standard windows mobile messaging app, just not the tf3d contact app
