Opera in this ROM doesn't support Flash - you would have to install another Opera version for that! I guess the main reason, why Dutty doesn't use Opera with flash is the extremely long startup time for Opera with flash!

I'll use iris browser for flash sites and ie6mobile ,i guess i leave opera just for normal bowsing then.

thanks.

I wonder if the laurentius 26 new rom has opera with flash working.

Also will it be possible to get flash 9,10 videos working on ie6mobile , as that's the format they use on news.bbc.co.uk website.

Has any1 added a custom city for the weather? I do all like before, editing the manila file with sql editor and adding the city, then deleting the database file - but still, doesnt work. It adds the city, but cannot update that city. I noticed indexes in the manila sql file, maybe that's why it doesnt work? Solution/ideas?

Regards
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] josephlck:
Hummm... It could be 1 of 3 things

1) spb just isn't compatible with this ROM

2) manila is essential

3) something is wrong with your 2.8 flash (unlikely i think)

Try:

Disable manila and reset (don't install spb). If that works, try installing the spb components one by one reset after each one.

Of course, since the only major difference between 2.7 and 2.8 is manila, you might as well save yourself the hassle and go back to 2.7 if that worked :)

After you edit and replace the file. YOu need to delete the Forecast Cache file from under Application Data/HTC and then you need to install Weather Database Editor 1.2 or modify some reg entries to change the server. I cant recall those but you can run a search and find those. Although installing Weather Database editor is the easier way. Dont run the application, just install it.

Probably a very dumb question, but...if I have installed a previous version of Duttys say 2.6 and now want to change to 2.8, do I have to remove the old blacimg.nbh file from my storage card prior to upgrading? or is there something I am missing. A few hours have passed since my last heroics of accomplishing this the last time.

Thanks in advance for any help

I reverted back to 1.10.25.25 radio - seems to work best for me. Both battery usage and signal reception. No problems to date.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] astromark:
Crikey, I disappear for a few days and the thread grows by 100 pages. For that reason forgive me if the question I ask has already been asked.

Out of curiosity after trying Dutty 2.6 I tried Energy's recent HD ROM. It has Topaz Manila and I know Dutty 2.8 now does too.

Does this mean that we now get the 4-column (24 icon) Programs page? (Pic from Energy's thread.) This is really nice compared to the setup in Dutty 2.6.

A smaller issue is does Start bring up the traditional start menu (as in Energy) or the programs page?

The Topaz ROMs do seem to be a bit quicker than the Rhodium ones though.

Again, sorry if it's been asked; I expect to be shouted at!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] blurblur88:
Thanks guys. It works like a charm now. bgumble, you are right, it did restore the file. I was so stupid that I replace the old db onto it and I thought I lost it. now the clock and weather both works perfectly. again, thanks.

Where is it? I can't find that setting...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] josephlck:
This thread is a little mad... The start button brings up the programs tab and the programs tab doesn't exist anymore (you can change it back)

There are 3 icons per row in the 'start' menu. I can't figure out how to make it 4 without reverting back to the classic start though.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] astromark:
If you want you could be a guinea pig and try this - I was going to ask at some point..!

This is the registry setting from my Energy ROM Topaz Manila for the 24-icon program page that might work. I don't think simply adding the programs tab back will do it. What this does is change the right soft key to bring up the programs page - do you mind seeing if it happens to bring up the 24-icon page? All you'll need to do is reset the right soft key (or copy down the reg keys you'll be changing).

within HKLM \ Software \ HTC \ Manila change

HomeRSKText to Programs

and HomeRSKPath to manila://programs.page

The keys should already exist, it's the value data that is the only thing changing. A soft reset might be required.

(The version of TF3D reported under the settings tab 'about' line on this Energy rom is 2.0.37889.1_CFC)

Hi,

Is it really true that one can restore the backup created using the sprite back up after upgrading the rom?

In my case when I jumped from 1.15 to 1.54 upgrade the restoration was not successfull - had graphic problems. I had to install everything from scratch and was really painful as I have lots of softwares.

But how about the regular updteas/upgrades? Would that be ok?

Any advice?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MAMeingast:
Stop asking the same question over and over again! If someone knows how to do that, he will post something!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] josephlck:
I tried using HD tweak. You can swap the buttons around but it gets a little grumpy if you try to set the right soft key to 'programs' (it reverts back to camera). I suspect this is because the 'programs' tab technically doesn't exist.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] josephlck:
If you use MaxTTM you can change it. There must be an easier way though...

I'm sorry, will the v2.8RC be the "final" version before Dutty's short break or will there be a v2.8?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jetjockgordo:
Yup, me too.

I really like the MSVC feature of announcing the caller ID, especially when using a BT headset and it is ok with no ring when the call has a matching ID (the announcement works ok as a ring tone of sorts) with it but when it comes through with no caller ID then there is no ring.

I am searching for a fix with my 2.7 ROM but no luck so far.

BTW, I went back to 2.7 since it seems much faster and stable then 2.8. I also like the theme better. Very nice Dutty. Thanks! The caller announcement seems to be the only issue I have.

If someone figures out the MSCV problem, could you post here and also PM me?

Regards,

cRaCKwHoRe answered your query well in post#2334 on page 234
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
This all depends on what rom you are using at present

If you are using V2.7 then all you need to do is flash USPL again then flash V2.8 from either SD card or via USB and bootloader

If you have an earlier version i.e. V2.6 or earlier & have HSPL you need to follow the following steps

1. Flash a signed HTC rom based on 1.14 SPL

2. Flash back stock 1.14 SPL

3. Flash a signed HTC rom based on 1.54 SPL

4. Run uspl

5. Flash Duttys 2.8 rom

All procedures are all mentioned in Post#6 and in the http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone

Feedback for 2.8RC

(+) Positive:

- Battery status is readed out correctly by my Bury CarKit

- Calendar ist starting with monday, when I switch the MUI language

- Good speed

(-) Negative

- Since I have added my bluetooth car kit with 2.8RC there are two Bluetooth Logos in the taskbar.

- WM 6.1 BootScreen is still the ugly green one! I have mentioned that since many, many versions.

Whishes for the next version:

1. WM6.5

when its final!

2. S2U2

3. NoData for disabling data connections

2.8 is running as good as no ROM before and I am very satisfied with it!

It's also a good decision not to release a ROM every few days. Setting up the Touch HD so often is also a timekiller for users. By the way: The facebook integration is so uninteresting for me as a freezer at the northpol!

Hi,

great ROM. I did manage to trash my vista system with the new drivers but that's probably my fault rather than anyone else's. Oh well back to XP. :(

Anyway, I downloaded the rom and installed it without any problems (other than the one above!) but I installed the one without MSVC, is there a cab available to save me having to flash a whole new ROM?

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Why complain? Just change this yourself!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Is your Vista not working? Can say this enough. You should always backup drivers or reg entries before you do anything so you can revert back if having problems.

Whats happened to your Vista. This should be easily fixed
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cupra TDI:
@ Elim:

Bootscreen:

Sure I can change it by myself. But it would be so easy for the rom cookers to change it for all. For me its a black dot in the beatiful black manila design.

WM6.5:

Just a wish, but: You'll remeber my words, when Dutty will release his first 6.5 ROM. It's not wheter there will be a 6.5 based Dutty ROM, it's for which HTC Device.

S2U2:

For me its a must have app and many Touch HD Users are using it!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nicelad_uk:
I don't think the Rom Cookers will ever get a boot screen that everyone likes, there will always be someone who doesn't like it. And to be honest, how many times do you see this? For me its about once a month, or whenever I flash a rom!

Probably best waiting till 6.5 is fully bug free, which could take a while. 6.1 is very stable now, and Manilla is too which gives loads more functionality.

Is S2U2 still a massive drain on battery, I know most users that had it complained that it drank too much.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fwt:
Maybe this thread ... or this one ... or even this one over here can help you with the Bootscreen ... one Minus less :D

btw ... a quick search and i found what you want :p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cupra TDI:
Sure, not very often! But I always thought we/he wanted to make a ROM as perfect as possible. Not so important, but also not much work to change it.

Unreserved approval! First it should reach final status!

I've also read about the battery drain, but I am satisfied with battery life!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:

Finally every user has its own preferences for a perfect ROM. I am only giving my personal feedback here. That must not be the opinion of the most users. It's like christmas: There are a few wishes and sometimes you get, want you want. But there is no guarantee! :cool:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
Guys!!! Epic fail on the searching!!

While beta testing the 1.56 roms for Dutty I searched long and hard to find compatable drivers for Vista 64 so you wouldn't have to. I bundled them up into a nice package with the 32 bit drivers and Dutty put that them at the end of his instructions in post 6. The fact that you didn't find them can only mean you didn't bother reading the instalation instructions.

So here once again are all the instructions, links and drivers needed to flash either 2.7 or 2.8

Please look a bit harder next time.

Very easy aswell with the number of posts in this thread. Would it not be easier for a new thread every release?

Hmm, thinking on that, we would probably have millions of threads so scrap that.

Quick Question....

When we link profiles to facebook in our phonebook, is there anyway when making a backup (with PIM, Sprite etc) to back this up too so when we restore it remembers the link? Not sure if any already do it so throwing the question out to you guys...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
I've talked to Throy about this and he agrees that his next release will be a new thread. As he previously stated he will only be releasing new roms on a monthly basis (due to personal/family reasons) unless there is a major problem, and he he also going to start looking into WM6.5 roms so you may find his next rom is completely different and will require a new thread anyhow
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
Not a feature I use to be honest, though I'll have a look and see. The fact that its linking to another app may be the problem...........
