Hey all,

using Duttys V3 at the moment, THANKS to Dutty for this great ROM...

been looking around quite a bit to find something that would suit my needs

and this one hit the spot...

I have been flashing quite a few ROMs the last couple of weeks and as

much as I like all the new things with the Topaz/Rhodium ROMs there is

ONE thing I'm not sure I can live without from the stock ROM and I can't

believe no one dumped and CABed it...

I like the new keyboard but my stocky fingers :) really miss the Compact

QWERTY Keyboard...

Has anyone been able to install a working CAB for the original Stock Keyboard

on a ROM containing the Topaz/Rhodium one? If so, care to direct me?

(I have searched and tried quite a few versions with no success.)

Bonus: To make it a tad more difficult... is there a language file supporting

Swedish T9 as well, it would make my day.

Best Regards,

Nik
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bram_smulders:
I've seen some developements on this in the dev&hack forum, guys are reprogramming the topaz/rhodium keyboard so it can be used with compact qwerty.

But i cant find the thread no more... if i'll find it, ill post it.

Hi,

Does anyone know about an application which would allow me to synchronize more than one outlook e-mail account (Outlook Webaccess), and eventually also Calendar/Contacts with my Hemes device?

Thanks in advance
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bbdoc:
Hello,

I'm replying to myself... I found out that an application I already used for calendar sync with OWA, Chronobis, now also has a beta function to sync e-mails directly with OWA... I tested it and it works quite well (still some minor bugs, but hey, it's a beta version)...

And this application is free...

So if anyone is looking for the same kind of functionnality... ;)

I am about to buy a Touch HD that has already the stock 1.56 ROM therefore, has 1.54 SPL in by default....

What is not perfectly clear is... do i still need to downgrade, hardSPL, upgrade to 1.56 and then use uSPL or do i simply use USPL and flash as it is?....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bouwew:
2nd option. Run USPL first, everytime you want to flash a ROM/Radio/etc.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bram_smulders:
USPL and flash

Gr. Bram
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] VizagDude:
If your device already has 1.54 SPL, USPL is your only choice. Also, unlike HSPL, USPL is NOT on your device all the time. So every time you want to flash a cooked ROM you would have to flash USPL to your device before the cooked ROM flash.

Now if you want to try the cooked ROMs that have 1.14 SPL, you also have an option to downgrade your SPL and then flash.

There are 2 kinds of ROMs out there (both cooked and ship) The ones that only work with 1.54 SPL (you would get this SPL if you flash Ship 1.56 ROM) and the ones that do NOT work with 1.54 SPL (these ROMs have 1.14 or 1.19 SPL).

HSPL is only good for NON-1.54 SPL ROMs.

USPL works with All kinds of SPLs.

Using the information provided in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=500574

I've made some benchmarks using Coreplayer, and what a surprise when I saw that this wasn't just a placebo effect:

On my Blackstone, used some divx encoded movie (container is avi, not mp4, so not playable with wmp), and a movie acquired with the camera, so .mp4.

I did a benchmark and the result is the following:

Methods

HTC Touch HD, latest Dutty's V3 rom, freshly flashed.

No Additional program installed.

Coreplayer 1.3.0 build 6213

1st movie is a DVDrip, avi, xvid.

2nd movie has been acquired with the HD's camera, so it's MP4.

Results are presented as following:

AVI movie / MP4 Movie / MP4 Video paused in WMP in background
​

Driver QTV

117 % / 135% / without wmp running a mp4 vid.

115 % / 197% / with wmp runninga mp4 vid.
​

Driver DirectDraw

92 % / 142% / without wmp running a mp4 vid.

86 % / 186% / with wmp runninga mp4 vid.

​

Analysis:

The avi movie suffers from the additional memory used by WMP in the background, and there is no improvement.

The MP4 movie benchmark improves dramatically when a MP4 vid is paused in the background with WMP.

QTv still provides better results than DirectDraw.

Conclusion

There is some kind of acceleration with WMP in the background, but only with MP4 movies ! :eek:

You may notice that it doesn't seem to be directdraw dependant. Neet, I love more confusion. :cool:

I want to thank zerocool159 for this nice finding.

Edit: doesn't seem to work with all the MP4 !Will try to find the right settings.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gigaboss:
Impressive, I want to try it first
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gigaboss:
It's not working for me, but I think I must have missed something because my benchmarking gives 43%, it's the first time I try to play a movie on my HD.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dredd67:
Well, you need several things, and I don't know if it's related to the Rom version I use.

Take a quick movie of whatever with your camera. Use Windows media player to play it. Put it in pause.

Without closing WMP, launch Coreplayer (the latest version I assume), and play a .MP4 movie. You can convert almost anything with the movie encoder GUI found on here.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dredd67:
Bump. No one interested ? Really ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] pokevitek:
I am very interested, this is in fact very funny. Since there is special dll - qtv-mp4-"something" . Actually this is very strange. I first thought that WMP is somehow modified to use acceleration, than i have been told I am wrong. Later, there were some qtv dll´s found, as mentioned before one especially for mp4, so this acceleration is abviously not coused JUST by directdraw support of WMP. Anyway, I hope that CP will release CP 2.0 sooon. Also, if it it true, than Topaz drivers can boost video playback.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gigaboss:
That's exactly what I did, nothing special happened, with or without wmp running, i got between 40 and 43%... the divx was encoded using an encoder found on this forum ^^
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dredd67:
Ok, try with a video you've recorded with your HD's camera. I think there's something really weird going on. I've tried with a video compressed with badaboom and it doesn't work either.

I think the file format is very specific. Will ty to see if I can find the settings used by the camera to generate those files.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gigaboss:
When I benchmark a camera video, I get 196%, and wmp still doesn't change anything... :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dredd67:
There is definitely something weird going on, here's what I've posted in Manilla 2d speed boost thread:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] draxredd:
i can confirm the graphical artefact displaying photos in the touchflo3d thumbview (white, blue, green smears and spots) while wmp is paused on a mp4 thingie...

having the picture thumbs scrolling is quite revealing : the dots on the pictures are part of the paused video !

theory : wmp loads some qualcomm dll for mp4 playback. said dll then does some stuff of its own that turns 2d overlay/framebuffering hw acceleration on.

meanwhile manila is doing the same thing througth some htc dll.

both apps access the framebuffer through 2d hardware, hilarity ensues !
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] razorblader:
Jup, I have encountered the same effect on my Laptop/PC with certain programs with video on pause, a application video overlay boxing match, so to speak...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gigaboss:
It really isn't working for me, when I start playing the camera movie on wmp, and then i pause it and i start playing another camera video on coreplayer, wmp won't be showing the video anymore, i mean that when i get back to wmp and press play, i have sound but not picture... So maybe am I doing something wrong?

hello everybody,

I'd try this solution on my TP2 and it's work perfectly.

Without WMP i have 70% of speed

with it grow to 115 %.

Thank you for this solution.

Ps: I'd just start wmp with a mp3

I modify my post because this solution had work only one time.

I'd try to test with/without wmp but the speed stay at 70%, mystery, mystery !!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] twisted-pixel:
ok, so I tried to upgrade to 1.56 (stock), and yes I now have the dodgy looking screen and phone is stuck in 'Phone Off' mode.

I didn't think I needed to do anything other than run the exe from HTC.

so, anyway..yes I'm screwed.

I've got the list of instructions from an earlier post about flashing 1.56, and am trying to follow them (seems my phone has Olinex1.14 on it - which I've never used as I've never flashed this phone before)

but..I can't connect to my phone, when I plug the usb cable in, I get the screen which asks me which type of connections I want Active sync, disc drive etc, but the screen on my phone is totally unresponsive. the screen then disappears and I'm nowhere...

If I can't connect to my phone, how do I run the file to flash back to 1.14 as per the instructions?

thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lazy79:
hm i would try it in bootloader mode?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] cgjones:
USB

If you take the battery out and make sure the USB is not connected.

After a few seconds, put the battery back in.

Next press the down button on the side of the phone and keep it pressed, press the power button as normal.

Does anything appear on the screen?

Next, if you get the coloured screen with 'Serial' at the bottom, if you plug in the USB cable and connect to a PC, does 'Serial' change to read 'USB'.

If it does all of this, your phone is not dead.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] twisted-pixel:
I've had to try a different machine..which is working....thank god.

but the issue now is that our virus software is preventing me from downloading USPL2.5, is there another way to to use this file?

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
You may have to. Just try the rom upgrade. If it yells something about an "invalid vendor ID" just use USPL to apply the rom upgrade. If you need information on how look at the guide in my signature.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ratchetjaw:
Hey there i had a quick question my telstra HD comes in today. Can i just run the USPL and then load the updated ROM your talking bot off the site? Other wise i was going to load a Dutty's. Sorry to go off topic
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Geeba:
Thanx crackwhore! appreciate the pointers... pretty new to phones... I tend to hack consoles etc! ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Digital Outcast:
Yeah you can load any 1.56 rom whether it is cooked or original using USPL (if your SPL is 1.54.0000 in the bootloader).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ratchetjaw:
Ok thanks for the quick response. I am going t follow your sticky once i get home and get the phone. If i dont have he 1.54.0000 i will put it on there. Kind of excited and nervous at the same time lol

Activesync upto your PC and install this remotely
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PJ6363:
Peoples,

After flashiong a new ROM I have lost internet connectivity on my device when connected with Activesync to PC.

Re-flashed a different ROM (HTC stock standard) then another and the problems persists...this is with no additional s/w loaded on the device.

This makes me think it is an issue with my PC and possibly activesync. I re-installed activsync, no fix!

The device connects (no problems) and synchronises and I can open the deivce on the PC and see all...:confused:

Can anyone guide me through checking my PC/internet connections so as to troubleshoot as this is driving me nuts!?!?!

BTW, thought it might be firewalled out by windows XP but all seems in order there...

Looking forward to any help soonest......
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PJ6363:
Just to add that all works OK using my home Wifi connection....just when connected to Activsync with the USB cable......
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] PJ6363:
Solution found....yay!

Unbelievable but true....simple solution that I waster 8 hours trying to fix by installing new ROMs, re0-installing Activesync, USB driver....you name it!

The solution was to Open ActiveSync, go to File, Connection settings.

There you will see "This computer is connected to" - Automatic

Change the dropdown arrow to.....The Internet and now it works :rolleyes:

This Activsync software is pure rubbish...always has been and always will be....:mad:

At least I'm back in business and I hope others learn from my grief!!! :)

I have tried to download cab from the web, moved it via USB-cable or downloaded an email-attachment. Fails everytime, same for storage-card or memory.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Robson:
guys

a couple of buddies of mine, all of whom use athenas, have successfully upgraded to Michy's 6.5 Rom. 2 of them who use R35 Itech BT headsets mentioned that they had difficulties pairing the units after the Rom upgrade (despite the hard resets). To test if the headsets were functional, they tried pairing these with a buddy's HTC Diamond which I believe uses WM 6.1. Again, they couldn't pair their Itech headsets via Bluetooth.

Question: For those who've upgraded to 6.1 and/0r 6.5, have you experienced anything similar with your BT units? If yes, what kind of headsets do you have? I'm currently using a 8010 and it's working fine despite the Rom upgrade I made to 6.5. I was curious if the "older" model headsets had problems in being paired with the newer Roms.

cheers
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] beginner:

My expertise is that works better with taxist roms instead michy roms (compairing 6.5) in terms of quality, disconnections and battery life.

I dropped my phone once and since then whilst working on the phone, it suddenly switches to camera mode and starts taking pictures. when I close the camera application, it comes back on after a while.

I have been reading thru the posts and am a bit confused as to the best solution to this problem. Help anyone!!
[Wing, P4350 General] ivanmmj:
It sounds like your camera button is stuck down.
[Wing, P4350 General] tembz:
thanks for the response. my camera button is not stuck. I can take pictures if I want to. the problem is the phone switching to camera mode and taking pictures whilst I am browsing or making a call.

how about getting rid of the tri-color screen when I reset the phone? my IPL: 4.17.0002 and SPL: 4.17.0000 and ROM VER. 4.17.405.2
[Wing, P4350 General] ivanmmj:
All your symptoms are related to the camera button being held down, so I'm assuming that the button is damaged in a way to force the camera button to open the camera when moved certain ways. The tricolor screen only comes up when you hold the camera button down while restarting. It IS your camera button.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barff1984:
Guidelines for prolonging Li-ion battery life

* Like many rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion batteries should be charged early and often. However, if they are not used for a long time, they should be brought to a charge level of around 40%–60%

* Lithium-ion batteries should not be frequently fully discharged and recharged ("deep-cycled"), but this may be necessary after about every 30th recharge to recalibrate any electronic charge monitor (e.g. a battery meter). This allows the monitoring electronics to more accurately estimate battery charge.[28]

* Li-ion batteries should never be depleted to below their minimum voltage, 2.4 V to 3.0 V per cell.

* Li-ion batteries should be kept cool. Ideally they are stored in a refrigerator. Aging will take its toll much faster at high temperatures. The high temperatures found in cars cause lithium-ion batteries to degrade rapidly.

* Li-ion batteries should not be frozen [49] (most lithium-ion battery electrolytes freeze at approximately −40 °C; however, this is much colder than the lowest temperature reached by household freezers).

* Li-ion batteries should be bought only when needed, because the aging process begins as soon as the battery is manufactured.[28]

* When using a notebook computer running from fixed line power over extended periods, consider removing the battery[50] and storing it in a cool place so that it is not affected by the heat produced by the computer.

Taken from Wikipedia!

so don't flatten the battery before each charge!
