Great !

EVEN BETTER :D !

But don't underestimate the powers of 'The Woman' .... :p If you promised them something, they can be VERY CONVINCING :rolleyes: !

But being serious, family is the most important thing you have, do not underestimate that (I did that in the past .... not good) ;) !
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] geekbuddha:
I agree....the look of 2.7 has grown on me, its refreshing -almost felt like I had gotten a new phone. But looking forward to 2.9 and then WM6.5.

I have tried some the 6.5 ROM's and while they are all very good, they just miss the mark in bringing together 6.5 and Manila seamlessly. Hopefully with Dutty's hard work and our constant testing, we will achieve that.

Cheers!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
THANKS BRO SOME GOOD WORDS THERE WILL DEFINITELY LISTEN TO THEM,

The RTM will be like Final as v2.8 works great for me and now with the small changelog of v2.9, I'm sure i can spend more time with the family.

Thanks again Matt:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] schreda:
whatrs about the manila theme used in 2.7 is gone gone forever??
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
Yeah I liked it too, but hey! It's all about functionality and with 2.9 we should be one step closer to the perfect windows 6.1 rom :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dizzle:
Good times!

Here here. I too prefer the 2.7 over 2.8 and will be sad to see it go when 2.9 comes out as I will upgrade to that. Looking forward to Dutty's WM 6.5. I've tried a few 6.5 roms and spent a lot of time with Miri's one which in my opinion is pick of the bunch at the moment. WM6.5 interface was good enough for me to use without TF3D. It will be interesting to see how Dutty's turns out.....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zoomee:
to be honest guys - I can't find a fault with 2.7 - i'd say its duttys rhodium RTM ;)

I might just stick with it as all the WM6.5 stuff I seen has been quite buggy and slow in comparison to duttys uber 2.x ROM's. AND just like dutty I been spending too much time tarting up my phone to spend with family (my wifey's going nuts, she hates my Touch HD - lol) so understand what pressure he must be getting.

PS Dutty -hope your liccle un is ok after the op btw... all teh best.

help

i installed my first rom in duttys 2.8 by way of sim card just now and its saying update in progress but the bar is full at the bottom of my screen and has been for a few minutes. does it typical stay full for a while b4 resetting or did it not work and is froze?

at the top of my screen it it says BLACIMG.nbh -

OS-

update in progress...

but the progress bar has been full for a few minutes. about how long does the process generally take?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
excuse me

i meant storage card not sim card
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zoomee:
let me guess - you aint got kids yet? cus thats when all the fun and toys stop :( :( :(

/goes to sulk and remembers the gud old days when my mates uased to tell me what I need are kids!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sameerabedi:
Dutty if your still around on the forums, is it possible to correct the MVSC problem with phone calls in v2.7 and 2.8 - everytime someone rings the announcement silences the ringtone.

Only if it's not too much trouble - I know I'm nit-picking!

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
direction please

can anyone tell me what i should do? my phone has said update in progress for like 10 minutes since i installed my rom through my sd card. what should i do?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
Zoomee, I haven't got sprogs yet, but even I haven't got it as good as Laidbackfreak (no wonder he's laidback) A missus who doesn't mind football, exotic pets and gadgets! You've got yourself one in a million there mate :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
Dude, why are you installing via SD card?? There is a clear route for 1.56 rom installations that necesitates using USPL. Check Crackwhore's guide in my siggy.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
Hi bro, MSVC WITH new builds and with the new topaz/Rhodium oems seem not to like each other. I'm using msvc version also but disable it when I'm not using my bluetooth headset.

Thus nothing much I can do with it. Use the standard version if u are having probs.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
clown shoes can you please give me some direction as to what to do please. i ran uspl 2.5 on my device and it said 1.15 spl in bootloader i put my storage card in b4 running the uspl so i do believe i did it correctly now im just confused as to if my screen is froze or if it takes a long time for my phone to update the rom. the progress update bar filled up a while ago though and its just sitting on full and says update in progress does it usually take a while for the phone to update that way?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
I'm afraid this has been a consistant problem since Dutty's 1.9 xtreme. MSVC doesn't seem to play nicely with the newer roms. The best thing I can suggest is unticking announce calls in the MSVC settings tab. Settings/ all settings/ personal/ voice command.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
You have the correct spl to restore the original stock rom, but then you must use uspl again to install a 1.56 stock rom, before finaly uspling once more and installing Dutty's 2.8. None of which can be done from your SD card I believe.

Don't worry though. You haven't bricked it! Which rom do you currently have installed?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] henv:
earlier i had this also. Workaround call somebody and it will popup
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
i did uspl

i had some issues with it not installing so i ran it through my sd card. i already had the official htc 1.56 rom and i ask crackwhore about the way i was choosing to go and he believed it would work. did run the uspl b4 i pressed power to install the rom.. what i need to know now is it a long process or has it froze? if you know anything about this way could you please help?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rvv:
I just noticed that contact pictures are no longer available on the call history of manila. In the version 2.6 the feature is still there.

Is there any way of getting that feature back in 2.8?

Thanks.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
so henv it will eventually pop up?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
Ok, I see what you mean. So you've already done 90% of the process. The honest truth mate is I didn't think you could flash from SD with USPL. The USPL is only temporary whilst the phone is in bootloader which is the point you would run the installer from your PC. I fear this is why you are stuck right now. Is there a reason you've chosen not to flash from your PC?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
well my cpu is vista 64bit and i could never manage to get the xp driver installed. my girlfriend has an xp so i just decided to use hers but when i tried run the wrapper it would start and then say error 240 the update utility could not open the file so i looked up flashing by way of sd card and it said it was the safest way. so since i already had the htc 1.56 rom all i needed to do was put my sd card in after going into bootloader but b4 running the uspl i did that and everything seemed to work fine but now its been on the update in progress screen for idk how long.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
I'm sorry to say it but I think you're gonna have to flash from your PC. I'm running vista 64. What problem were you having mate? You're so close to getting this finished :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
im scared to do anything to my phone. do i take the battery out or what should i do? i kept getting an error code 39 and error code when trying to install the drivers. then i searched around and it was like 3 0r 4 diff drivers. the one i thought to be correct was the on that said wceusbshx64.inf. i turned my anti virus off and everything. can u direct me to the driver you installed? first i need to figure out what to do as far as my phone goes.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
Right, well it's been what? about half an hour now it's been stuck? I don't think it's going anywhere mate. I think your gonna have to bite the bullet and pull the battery. Put yourself back into bootloader mode and then USPL your phone again (you need to do it each time) I have attached the right drivers (remember to reboot your pc first and f8 during boot up to give you the menu where you can disable digital driver signing, otherwise USPL will not work. You need the dos propt window to stay open) Once you've got your phone USPLd you can run the installer for Dutty's 2.8 from your PC and that should be it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] henv:
yeah but all that time waiting for popup you will not be reachable. So workaround is better i think :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
so i went aheadd and pulled the battery out and it was giving msg saying rom upgrade error and then would go into loading. so i took the sd card and so it wouldnt just keep going into loading. it says 1.54.0000 and ruu upgrade error. im going to try and flash it back to the htc 1.56 rom and see if that works. i just got it back to normal. close one.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] newnoise1024:
vendor id problem

how do i know what original rom was installed on my phone?

i used uspl so my spl is still 1.14, but when i try to change the rom from dutty 2.6 to the newer 1.56 it says vendor id problem.

sorry ive tried to find it in this thread but its so big i cant find anything to help me out
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cupra TDI:
I've a problem with my Bluetooth carkit in combination with onboard navigation on my TouchHD. Maybe someone can help me out with that:

Bluetooth carkit and TouchHD
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
If you follow Crackwhores guidelines in my signature you should be fine or you could wait for V2.9 :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] enigma27:
Thanks too all that helped me today.

i succesfully got my phone working with Dutties awesome rom...

now just gotta find me some new apps and games and were sorted :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Svegetto:
hey clownshoes,

just fyi, every ROM update I've done on my HD (including 2.7) I've done from the SD card using USPL, so that shouldn't be his problem. I've heard from others that it would just crap out in random areas sometimes while doing the flash, and once they tried again it would work. So far I'm 6/6 flashes from SD card with USPL and no problems.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cupra TDI:
Has the SD Card to be empty for the flash? Or can I just put the ROM file it in the root directory? Are the stored files on my microSD still there after the flash?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Svegetto:
it just has to be in the root, the SD does not have to be empty
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cupra TDI:
I guess that is saver and quicker than flashing over USB?!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eighty1:
does anyone no what error 270 update error is? im trying to install duttys 2.8. been trying all morning.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] daylebo5:
dutty.. i gonna finally flash using uspl.. getting fed up wait for hspl to be upgraded... I am curently using your 2.5....

Maybe u should start a new thread when u release 2.9.. this threat is getting way to long...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Svegetto:
I don't think one is quicker or safer than the other, but I'm sure that's up for debate, though I don't want to be part of that. Most importantly, both ways work.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Svegetto:
We're gonna need more info then that (unless someone already delt with the same problem). When does the error get thrown and what have you done so far?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sangreal:
2.9 is available for download on Dutty's site now.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] soulja85:
Any info on changes in 2.9?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sangreal:
Yeah theres a changelog on the website and also in this post mate.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PapaDocta:
damn i was about to go to bed... now downloading 2.9RTM
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sangreal:
Haha yeah was in the same boat dude. Even got the first comment in on Dutty's site, not that I was waiting for it to be posted tonight hehe. I need to get out more :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
The RTM version is up now. This is like one step to the Final if any unless there is a mjaor update but so far all good.

Enjoy and read through post 1-6, thanks to crackwhore for his dummy guide also added to changelog and post 6. and who has contributed somehow in getting the rom here.

GoodNight:)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
The best as always mate. Have a good night, enjoy your rest
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] VizagDude:
Damn! I'm in the train going back home. Cannot wait to go home and flash this ROM. In the meantime can someone tell me if this has the Rhodium theme? Thanks for this present weekend surprise Dutty.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] enigma27:
ok im back again!!

just a couple of questions.

when you type an sms message using the keypad instead of the key background highlighting

grey there seems to be a grey popup above the box which also displays the letters on it. can you disable this?

Also the little house key on the bottom of the device no longertakes me too the home screen? is this a feature or a bug.

p.s. actually i can get back to the home screen from any page / app by using the hang up key. so whats the little house used for?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] The PRO:
No it doesnt have the theme 4m v2.7, its the same one as all the other builds
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sangreal:
No it doesnt thank god, lol, you and that Tmobile Rhodium theme hehe i dunno. :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] soulja85:
I want 2.7 theme :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da11y:
I'm flashing my device as I type this out :)

I wonder what's changed from 2.8 to 2.9 :rolleyes:

Either way, quite excited to see what it's like.

By the way, I'm glad this hasn't got the theme from 2.7 LMAO

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ultimatepichu:
RTM & XT

a bit off topic, but what's "RTM" stands for?

and what's "XT"?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da11y:
"release to manufacturing"

but Wikipedia say's it can also mean "release to marketing"

I think the XT means Xtreme, but ain't to sure on that one.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
You nailed it ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Don't thank me, I should be thanking you. You're a gentleman and a scholar. Oh, and a machine too! Now I have to to flash again!! GRR! Just kidding I look forward to such things! :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da11y:
2.9 is working flawlessly for me.

The only bug present is a cosmetic one.

The same one I pointed out a few days ago that the weather icon in customize

tabs doesn't have the pic of the sun like it should.

All else seems fine :p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Nice, now you've got me all excited!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da11y:
LOL You should be.

Another strange this I've noticed as well, the memory usage seems to be slightly lower then it was with 2.8.

The first time I installed 2.8, the memory usage was on 50% but 2.9 on my

device seems to be in the region of 37%-40%.

This was right after the flash by the way, no extra apps had been installed.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
To quote Borat, "SEXY TIME" :D

I've almost burned my burgers on the BBQ trying to catch up and get flashing started ;)

Have you tried soft-reset? Usually worked in the past.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stone1971:
I've gone through Dummies guide for flashing (awsome guide btw), and I'm stucked on flashing the SPL v 1.15.USP. I had Duttys 2.6, and after following the steps my device is now saying SPL-1.54.000 in bootload. When I try to run blac_uspl.exe I can shortly see the cmd-box flashes and nothing more happens. I have installed the new driver for Vista according to the instructions. I have also tried to run the file from cmd (see my attachment, the text marked yellow means 'Not connected').

Can somebody please help me?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jentech:
Have you disabled USB from the connection settings in Activesync??
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stone1971:
Yes, actually I have tried both because of my seeking after a solution ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Da11y:
This happens to me sometimes as well. Don't know why it happens but gets

fixed with a soft reset just like crackwhore said.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Have you rebooted since updating the drivers? When you put your phone into bootloader and plug it in to your computer and go to Windows Device Manager, do you see the HTC USB Sync device there under Portable Devices?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stone1971:
Yes, after I got the message that the driver was sucsessfully installed.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stone1971:
My device is now in bootloader mode, and the bottom is marked with USB. When I look in WDM, I don't see any Portable Devices at all. I'm pretty sure I have seen that before. How can I get it back?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Herein lies the problem... I don't know why it wouldn't show up under your device manager if it is showing connected on your phone. Try connecting it to another USB port on your computer. Do you have Windows Mobile Device Center installed?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stone1971:
I changed to another port and the device showed up in WDM. I tried again to flash blac_uspl, but with the same result. Can something have gone wrong when I installed the driver?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Donwilly:
Go to the Blackstone USPL (sticky). There is a concise description of how to downgrade your vista drivers by pvdhelm.This on page 7 -#63 , I printed it and followed the instructions thoroughly and was able to do it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
If it is showing up in device manager, and you bring up the properties on that device and it says it is running properly, then it should be ok.

That is of course, unless the driver really didn't get updated properly. I would try to update it again if I were you. Did you follow the guide as far as how to FORCE the driver to install on Vista? If you are unsure, read step (0) of the guide in my signature.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stone1971:
I can't find the post. #63 is by cmonex and no instructions :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Just follow step (0) of the guide in my signature. It goes step by step with screenshots on how to do do this ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stone1971:
Ok, I'll try everything once again :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Donwilly:
I think i might have got the pages mixed up.Anyway here is what I copied and printed.

Now you must enter the bootloader on your device, to do this press and hold both the side ok button and the power button then put your stylus into the hole on the bottom of the device, your device will reset and show the red blue green bootloader screen. LEAVE THE DEVICE IN BOOTLOADER MODE and connect it using the USB cable to your VISTA PC.

Now navigate into the WMDC (Start>All Programs>Windows Mobile Device Center) and click on the "connection settings" menu icon

In the connection settings menu untick "allow USB connections" then press OK.

Now exit the WMDC and return to the desktop, go into the start menu and type "Services", this will take you into the local services dialogue and show a list of all services either running or registered with your pc.

Scroll down the list and make sure these services are present:

Windows Mobile-based connectivity

Windows Mobile 2003-based connectivity

If these services are not started then double click each one and set them to Automatic start by clicking the "startup-type" drop-down menu and selecting automatic then click the start button in the same window, apply the setting by pressing OK. Now return back to the desktop again.

Go into the start menu and type "Device Manager" then run, this will take you into the device manager. Click the "+" symbol next to "Mobile Devices" and double click on "HTC USB Sync".

This will bring up the properties of the currently connected device (the hermes in bootloader).

Go to the "Driver" tab and click "Update Driver".

Click "Browse My Computer for Driver Software".

Select "Let me pick from a list...."

Click the "Have Disk" button.

Click "Browse" and navigate to the AS_DRIVERS folder we created earlier.

Vista x32 users select the file "wceusbsh.inf"

Vista x64 users select the file "wceusbshx64.inf"

Then click Open.

click next and the driver will be installed (wait a moment).

Press close and escape back to the desktop now.

Now we must stop the WMDC process, start the task manager by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Escape.

click the WMDC line and click "End Process". In the confirmation window, again press End Process.

Now re-enter the WMDC and re-enable USB connections (click connection settings and tick the box "enable USB connections").

Your RUU programs for HardSPL/Radios/WM6 ROMs should now run as desired once you are synced with WMDC. Since we have updated the driver which vista uses when the device is in bootloader mode. (by pvdhelm)

You need to restart and voila.
