@ALL: I am reuploading both the New and Old Gene ROMs, i also forgot to add some files of transcriber that i realized later, so hold your horses for a while :)

@imblfmstr: Buddy, i guess you have added any other version of EZInput keyboard, the one i have included in the package does not have xt9 and thats why i have enabled the windows mobile default recipient suggestions. You need to turn these off. Either in the installed rom make these registry changes:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Inbox\RecipientAutocomplete]

"MaxSuggestions"=dword:0

or at cooking time, go to SYS\CommonNonEA or SYS\CommonEA whatever it is in this SYS and make the same changes in the RGU file there.

This will solve your problem. :)

Actually both WM 6.5 and Xt9 have their own recipient suggestion system and if enabled at the same time cause this issue.
[P3400 ROM Development] imblfmstr:
Thanks Krazy...I just checked, the package of Ezinput was one which came default with OPAL Rom, now i have cahnged with ur ROM and will recook the ROM. will report it

Thanks

Pro Users ROM WM 6.5 build 21844 version 8.5c2 Links Updates!

I rebuilded the ROMs with transcriber bug patched. I hope this time there wont be any bugs.

Important: For those using the kitchen, please add the folder named "Transcriber" from some other WM 6.5 kitchen into this one before building your ROM.

@imblfmstr: The transcriber thing applies to you too buddy, if you need transcriber, you need to so the same.

sumit i just tried to build 23409 rom

but my rom is coming out to b just 7 mb.

can u tell wht the problem can b?

am using ur 23017 kitchen as the base and never faced a problem till 23041
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Cant say man, i am not trying this build, trying to get a source for 21851 from monkeybape. Anyways, try checkiing that you are creating the folders in right fashion or not, specially the names. It seems the kitchen is omitting both SYS and EXT folders and just compiling XIP with OEM folders.
[P3400 ROM Development] ams1576:
can there b some problem with file attributes?

i think they r causing the problems.

if possible bcoz of attributes then any other solution?
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Nope. Attribute problem only causes the rom to malfunction, like themes dont work and activesync doesn't connects. But this is definately not a problem of attributes. And as such, my kitchen already have the code to set the attributes of the files right, which are meant for PPCKitchen, those that you get from JooJooBee666 at ppcgeeks.com

Links as usual are in first post. From this time i have also started to provide list of any changes that i noticed in the new builds, so before asking solution for any problem, please check if its not listed as a new change in this build :D Like in 21851, the font of text in titanium in selected plugin is a bit blurred, but this is not a bug, its a change. I hope i cleared my point. :)

can anyone tell me difference between Kitchen New and Old Gene (OEM+XIP+SYS) & ROM New Gene.

can i update rom from 6.1 to 6.5 by Kitchen New and Old Gene (OEM+XIP+SYS) (v 8.6c2 build 21851) through romudateutility.exe?

i mean can i use this [COM3 Tree Build] Kitchen New and Old Gene (OEM+XIP+SYS) (v 8.5 build 23017) : to update my rom.

because i dont know differance kitchen and rom.
[P3400 ROM Development] techmate:
@Krazy: This build looks good:) Constantly getting a free RAM of 18-20 MB with a wonderful battery life:).

Two issues being faced-

1. Unable to Change them from Start->Settings->Today. It simply does not respond.:confused:

2. UCWEB giving initializing error-> Using Airtel GPRS-> Always on:confused:
[P3400 ROM Development] Addicted2xda:
ROM:

This is a ready made Operating System, which you can directly flash your device with (Provided you have alrady hspl it).

Kitchen:

Its the applications that are supposed to be in the Operating System (for Phone). So you can add or remove any application you feel like (but there are exceptions to it). But you can not update your device with a kitchen (i.e. flash it). For that, you need to convert it to a working OS.

In simple terms, you can not flash a kitchen, You need a ROM to do so.

But if you want to add / remove default applications, you need a kitchen to build your ROM, you can not remove apps from a ROM that has already build (.nbh file).

If you need further clarification, pm me.
[P3400 ROM Development] ankit360:
flashing = document

ROM = .doc file

kitchen = microsoft word 2007

your document is save in .doc file and u need microsoft word to editor modify .doc file. same here you need .nbh file to flash and u need kitchen to creat modify .nbh file
[P3400 ROM Development] rakesh_4utoo:
another good explanation:D

ur the man :D.

But I don't have MSO 2007, have 2003 :D :D :D

OLD GENE

Sumit : how can i use the xpr and lzx !!

Whenever i make xpr enable rom not boating !!
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
@techmate: Buddy, there is some problem with your rom, either you have modified something in the kitchen and recooked a rom for yourself and then having this probblem, or your phone's registry is having a bad time. Try a hard reset in the second case. In the first case, i cant help u.

@zinzar: Why do you need xpr compression buddy? Dont you like getting more free space? There is no performance difference in XPR and lZX now. so forget about it, just use the lzx compression for optimal results.
[P3400 ROM Development] smondal4u:
thanks to all for reply
[P3400 ROM Development] techmate:
@Krazy: No No. I have just flashed the ROM provided by you (no modifications). I have re-flashed the ROM on OLD Gene., yet settings=>today not responding:confused:
[P3400 ROM Development] imblfmstr:
Enable optional Package

Dear Krazy

Just got my Gene Back and downloaded ur new Kitchen 21851

to enable the optional packages shud I place the packages in EXT/Packages or something elso needs to be done....

Will be buying a new mobile...let HTC release some more.....

I am very happy to be back with my Gene....Ur ROMS simply rocks.....

what PP shud I keep to use opera 9.7 bets build....to avoid memory probs....

I am back to bug u .......lols....
[P3400 ROM Development] deathgame:
to use OPERA ill recommend WM6.1 with no enhancements(while running opera)...

it will give u around 27MB free RAM( without running opera)
[P3400 ROM Development] imblfmstr:
Thanks Deathgame for the info but I like 6.5 very much

can we have some settings to use it on 6.5
[P3400 ROM Development] imblfmstr:
ROM not udating

I am not not able to flash my PDA ROM

it gets into bootloader mode but after some times the update utility gives error saying that the PDA does not respond....

However flashing happens after hard reseting the device.....

Active sync is connected and works properly
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
@imblfmstr: Good to see you back buddy :)

All the packages in Optional Packages folder are taken from SYS. So they should go there. Anyways, there is an easy way to recognize whether a package should go to sys or ext. EXT packages do not have a .dsm file. They have a "files" folder and an app.reg or app.dat or both or none outside this folder. If the structure of package is this, then it should go into EXT folder, otherwise it belongs to SYS. THen OEM folder is not touched now, its specifically for drivers and other control panel items that dont change with new builds.

For Opera 9.5 or 9.7, although 8 MB PP works fine for me, but you can try 6 if you keep getting errors. But i must tell you that anything below 8 MB PP will give you overall jerky feeling in the UI. I use Internel Explorer, UCWEB, Opera Mini and Skyfire to open all desktop size pages. One of these always works and they never spitted an out of memory error on me with 8 MB PP, not even a single time.

Keep your memory card out of phone, if its formatted with fat32. That will make flashing work :)
[P3400 ROM Development] deathgame:
any memory differences in fat format and fat32 format??

which is best and what u use?

i think fat32 is best for large amount of data..
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
FAT32 gives more storage space on the same card, almost 8-10% more as it uses smaller cluster sizes. FAT is not optimal for use on cards with >2 GB capacity.

FAT32 but, is slower than FAT when you put large number of small files on it. Copy and Read operations take more time then they do on FAT. Copying large files on FAT is equally speedy.

I use to use FAT o my 2 GB card and FAT32 on my current 4 GB :)

Hi guys

ROM Old Gene (v 8.6c2 build 21851) : Almost of times ( 95 % ?) when i receive a call my old Gene blocks and i have to make a reset. I cannot answer the calls.

Anyone knows why and how to solve this?
[P3400 ROM Development] deathgame:
i think u have installed some wrong third party..

HARD RESET
[P3400 ROM Development] nisalatp:
Back 2 U..

Ok Sumit,

Again, I flashed a non sumit ROM, and.......

Run back and flash a Sumit rom again. This time I am giving 6.5 a shot. Your Latest Rom for old gene..

Sumit, It gave me some strange experience> I flashed and I boot it, the Today Screen was frozen till 2, 3 minutes, and suddenly it came back to alive. Then there after no problem. I don't know if it is the expected behavior. Apart from that, I am happy.

Sumit, Titanium is hilarious, Atleast for me. do you happen to know if any other today screen which will be good? Apatr from our beloved Htc Home?

Can anyone give me a working cab for pocket nester? I have morethan 300 of nester games to try. He he heh!! Can somebody???

Good work sumit, Rom is fascinating. No problem, As you said, I am letting applications to be at the background this time, So far so good. Thanks for the tip.

Also can somebody give me a key mapping software? Sumit once mentioned one and I could not find it?? :):)
[P3400 ROM Development] techmate:
@nisalatp: Please find attached the key mapping software:). Strangely I also have issues with settings=>today. It gets frozen:mad: and I am unable to change the theme:confused:. I also find titanium quite uncomfortable and generally go back to HTC home theme ( I prefer Homescreen plusplus UI clock). Otherwise this ROM is behaving absolutely great with unbelievable battery life. :D
[P3400 ROM Development] nisalatp:
Techmate;

I just checked, Yes. It is. If we are to change open the today settings, Device freeze!!! And comes back to live in 4,5 minuts. Sumit.... Code Red! Code Red!

I am with Old gene...

Just Hard reset just after the flash. Today Setting problem will vanish.
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Yes its expected. Specially for the first time.

Hmm.. It depends on personal taste. Personally for me, titanium blends well with the one philosophy of WM 6.5, which is prettiness. Titanium with its translucent sliding bars looks nice, and suddenly, changing your wallpapers seems to be an enjoyable act on windows mobile, which was absolutely not on WM 6.1 and WM 5. HTC Home too defies the whole purpose of putting a wallpaper. Plus, Titanium's design philosophy is what the real philosophy of Microsoft behind today plugins was: To give one stop information of all the notification type things on Today screen itself, just one look at the device gives you a quick glance into that. And thats what titanium does and does it well.

Now comparing it to HTC Home, ya, HTC home does provides two step access to somethings that previously took 2-3 taps. But the new start menu makes up for that. All your shortcuts are now two taps away with this new system. The music plugin provides the functionality of the equivalent

tab in HTC Home. In few words, if you add the titanium weather and Appstar Fav Contacts plugin, you wont miss any HTCHome functionality. With HTC Home's style you will miss the wallpaper and the look, with titanium style, you miss a bit of ease of use, untill you get used to it.

For Manilla, i wont say much. Manilla completely hides the desktop and is more like an application suite, which always runs on your desktop and nobody cares about it while people fanatically close apps if they are running in background. Using Manilla is just like using a huge application with a quick task switcher. It takes great deal of RAM and personally, i dont think is very configurable. You cannot even choose which music player to use and when to unload it, not to mention how pathetic the wallpaper looks on it. These are all my personal thoughts so dont mind of you like manilla :) I am not saying Manilla is not funtional, but its very restrictive too. And the way its customized is just a hack. HTC officially doesn't provides any interface to customize the look of Manilla 2D. M3D is a much more sophisticated than M2D. Titanium on the other hand has no look of its own, it blends with the current theme.

So i would say, that titanium, although not a perfect solution, is a good home plugin, if you try to accept this change of philosophy from Microsoft wholeheartedly. I have learn to live with it, coz i know change is the only permanent thing in this world! (enough of my blah blah now! :D )

Pocket Nester is a freeware, open source software. You can get it on sourceforge.net here :

http://sourceforge.net/projects/pnester/

If you look closely, the software is in the ROM itself. Setttings+ allows you to remap your today keys.

Please try hard resetting your phone after flash and check that whether it happens before you install any apps or not. On New Gene there is no such problem happening, and the OEM, EXT and all other things are untouched in this ROM. So it shouldn't happen. :confused:
[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
OFFTOPIC:

Hey Guys, look at these videos on WMPowerUser.com, HTC Mega tested for the first time :)

http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=7450

MobileReview.com has done a full review (link on the page above). The Build of OS on this phone (in Russia at least) is 21843.5.0.62 for now, as evident from this screenshot :

The hero like clock looks good, but hides the wallpaer even more. Titanium is still better for me :| Although i would like to use both in turns :) Pretty good amount of RAM is free, If it was a VGA device and a bit more good looking, it was a perfect phone (i can even skip the second parameter, only a VGA screen would do :D )

That's good, but i love wm 6.1. I will buy a new device with wm 6.5 if it available in my country. With 64 mb RAM I think GENE is not compatible with wm 6.5.

I have a funny and tragic story about HTC in my country. Since 1,5 month ago there are no HTC Device in my country:o, authorized dealer and any others store didn't sell it again:o.

The reason, there is a new phone from China use and copyrighted HTC as their brand name in my country, and they claim that the true HTC used their product name:mad::mad::mad: and court make the CHINA HTC win, so........police came to all stores that sold true HTC device and takes all of them, even it had the person being serviced.

So now, NO True HTC Device in my country, May be I should go to INDIA to buy it:D:D:D.

[P3400 ROM Development] krazy_about_technology:
Ya me too! The speed these 218xx builds provide is awesome. And the I like the old UI more, on QVGA. And now the start menu is having some changes too so its the best thing to use 218xx if you want to try out 6.5 on a QVGA :)

@sahil: Yes, thats cool, but not on QVGA, for me personally atleast. I do try every build from COM3/4 in hope that it might reach to level of being usable for me. But it hadn;t till now. There are multiple problems, which is ok as its under development, while 218xx is nearly finished. The placement of controls on screen is very bad, the titanium font is blurred, and other few problems. So because of all this, i am currently only posting 218xx. I would also like to remind you that i only share what i use myself and find good. I am not on the forum for fame or anything. Its just my desire for sharing goodies with you people. :)

C2 is better

Hi! Krazy

I tried ur new build 23047 last night

but what i feel is C2 is still better for Our QVGA device...

although its very finger freindly but the bottom bar is too broad & it hides the softmenu buttons in resco explorer(My favourite)

Speed is very good but overall not worth to use in comparison to C2 build 21854....

thanks for giving it time....

edit: shifting back to bulid C2 21854
