After a day of using 28002 I can almost safely say that battery life is good. I havn't used the phone as much as I normally do but have used quit a bit of my day on the web with it. I have %39 left and I'm ready to go to sleep.

Those of you that miss the TaskManager on the Taskbar should consider using FTouchSL. I posted my idea about this a few posts back if your intrested. I like it and can now launch "Showcase" (i.e. the new taskmanager) From anywhere I want.

WIFI and 28002

ok 28002 is a great build, been running it about 24hrs and it seems faster and stable.

I do have a question, I connect to my home WIFI network but I am pretty sure the phone is still trying to use the ATT MediaNet. how do I make sure that when WIFI is connected (home, Starbucks, etc) that phone will use it?

thanks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ghekua:
agreed that 28002 is the good core, which brought to us speed n battery life seem good so far...

tried core 23509 now, should post the result later...haha im very curious about office beta ...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rmcclelland01:
Hello Shadowline have been using your roms for a while now and they work very well however last few roms 24506, 28002, 24509 i cant get tomtom navigator to install had no problems with this i previous roms. Any ideas or soloution would be appreciated
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] User_99:
23506x1M works really fine here. Fast and stable. Will check battery the next days. Only problem ist that "Gaz TD2 Tools for WM 6.5 (Release 2c)" won't run. I got an Net.CF3.5 error - all other program works like a charme.

Rotation for Album and Music works after changing polling value fro 65xxx to 200 via reg editor and soft reset.

Have you tried this cab HTC Topaz Notification Enhancement Custom?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ruscik:
Same problem here. Switch off manila and then install. Works a treat.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rmcclelland01:
Thanks for info but have turned manilla off from today screen and tomtom just stays on installing screen. I am using 7.915.9196 qvga black cab version Anyone any ideas
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ruscik:
I am using 7.910.9185 as that is the only one that was working fine for me when rotation was enabled. Maybe it is down to version?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
A stupid idea, but maybe hard resetting (Settings > System > Clear Storage) after each flash will help?

I tried 28002 and applied 'HTC Messaging Disabled' cab of Zenyee's and I didnt like what I see.

Curious to try 23504, 23506, but if you've tried to no success, why should I?

btw, do you also restoring any text messages/ SMS (via PIM Backup)? In my case, I did, and it really hogs the Messaging app.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] lagefrequentie:
help plz

Latest Version:

Build 28002x1

Updated Build

Manila Version Only

Changed Dialer to the latest LEO version, Non-3G.

Build 23509x1

Updated Build

Included Opera 10 (and 9.7)

Included Office beta.

Build 23506x1

Manila Version only

Better speed

Better battery consumption

A lot of things have been optimized again

This is the same as the 23506x1 "Test" version, so if you already have that, you do not need to upgrade.

-----------------------------------------

when did this 1 come out?

Build 28002x1

and what does non 3g mean?

the x2 was really bad, sound of me calls was terrible, hangs from rime to time, the x1 was very good!!

plz respond
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] wez89:
Non 3g means it doesnt support video calls
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] florinr08:
Yes I did do a hard reset after installing those ROM's.

When you applied the cab what happened? Did you try opening "E-mail" from the Start Menu and it hanged on you?

And yes, I've tried it both on 28002x1M and 23506x1M and it did the exact same thing on both.. I've gone back to 23071x3M and now back up to 23088x2NM (non-Manila).

Shadowline, please don't stop releasing non-Manila versions!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] lagefrequentie:
but it does support hi speed internet "H" connection?

is it depending on a software non installement? Or something else?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] wez89:
Its to do with the dialer, the dialer doesnt support video calls hence non 3g

Even tho its non 3g it will still support internet connections
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] florinr08:
Basically, the dialer used in this one doesn't have the button to turn Video Calls on when dialing someone's number. Everything else 3G-wise is still fully functional.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Quaki:
Use of the camera in 28002/23509 is a problem

Does somebody of you have as well the problem, that the camera does get sometimes covered from manila?

It happens mostly some seconds after the camera is activated. What I mean is, normally when you activate of course the camera picture is visible on the screen. Well but sometimes, the manila picture is going above the camera picture. But even you can't see anymore the camera picture nor the buttons of the camera, when you push the screen where they button to take the picture supposed to be, the picture is taken. And then mostly the manila picture disappears after that.

Does somebody have a solution for that?

And by the way, why does Windows Mediaplayer gets "terminated" when I activate the camera?

Thanks

Whats with Rotation

I don't get it. You have release the last 3 or 4 ROMS without rotation in Sense or Opera working.

I really like your ROMS - but I want them to rotate!

Is there a tweak?

If you are stuck, just grab any of the other ROMS and compare the differences till you find it.

I just found another 28002 that does not rotate - but the from NDR works but is a bit hard to read :-)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] blublub:

Active Sync via bluetooth

Anybody tried to use active sync via bluetooth? I have tried use Shadowline 23504 ROM with Win 7 + Toshiba BT stack. Topas is connecting, but synchronization is not starting. WMDC shows Connecting and then Error. Any ideas? I have used sync via bluetooth with WM 6.1 stock rom.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] tomoooo:
ActSync via BT

I tried, (have a tosh. NB), but with no luck, I was not able to connect it, no sending of files possible. I have no problem to send files on my Fuj.Sie NB at work.

As long as I remember, I always had issues with Toshiba BT. So I think it is more a problem of toshiba than the ROM.

EDIT>

I just found this, gonna try it when back from work

http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9602MY0000R01.htm

EDIT 2

So checked it, an it is working. The device could connect, it was also able to sync. Looks like it is working fine.

As I have a toshiba NB, i used these drivers for W7 http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/?page=download
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] vadgri:
Very good tutorial. But I tried it already.Everything is OK until p.2 in PC "After the connection is established, you can use the Windows Mobile Device Center in the same way as connecting via USB."

:confused:

It does stop on previous step "In the Windows Mobile Device Center application you can realize the status "Connecting". " And then I have "Error" without any clarification....

Give me your test result, please. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] florinr08:
How would you turn off haptic feedback in the non-Manila version? In other words, where is this option found in the Windows Mobile set of settings because I can't find it?

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] miso84:
Hi shadowline.

Your ROM is great and fast!;)

EDIT: I use Build 28002x1M

But I have one problem. I run pocket music player and listening to music, and than I run IGO8, and when it's navigate me, music freeze.

When I launch IGO, I have about 65% memory in usage.

Where is the problem?

When I had ROM with WM6.5 and Sense 2.1 (X-Treme V7), everything it's OK.

Is Manila 2.5 more consuming, or where is the problem?

Thx for answer.

Charging screen & Battery in 28002x1

Hi and thanks for this rom (28002x1). I switched to it after using 23506 for 3 days.

I would like to note a couple of things:

a) Is there any way to remove the battery animation when the screen is turned off and device is charging? At least dim it to a lower value? I feel the battery is not charging as fast as before because of this. As a result I need to completely turn off the device if I want it to charge rapidly on my PC.

edit: it looks like it s a 2.18 drivers "feature" not removable...

b) My battery went from 95% to 75% while browsing with opera 9.7 on my commute time (40min) this morning. I can't recall such a drop with previous ROMs.

A part from that this is a VERY reactive rom. Thanks again.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] krampmann:
Hey guys,

just flashed my device with the build 23506x1. Now my device (Topaz Vodafone) is stuck in the Vodafone Start Screen and does not do anything. Already tried a hard-reset but it is useless. Now I cannot flash again because I neither can connect via Active Sync nor charge the battery (at least I think so, because the LED is not glowing orange). Can anyone help me what to do? I searched a little bit in the forum, but I did not find anything.

Thanks for help.

Icons for Programs confusing.

Hey JDShadowline question about the 28002 build have Microsoft change the icons of the programs or was that personal touch by yourself. I only ask because I actually kinda liked the slightly older icon of the 6.5builds previously :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] zedrickc:
28002 is the best rom i've used so far..

except for the power drain problem..

i've never hv that problem before..

i just put the phone in my pocket without using it for abt 12 hrs..

and the battery drops from 99% to 50%..

i've never experience such a rapid drop in any of ur rom...

hope that u can fix that :D

no such issues here ... best battery performance since a lot of previous roms with 28002 :) try installing a task manager and kill the apps once in a while :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ruscik:
You have two Toshiba BT stacks. One is only drivers and profiles for BT while windows controls every thing. Activesync via BT works a treat. You are also missing in this one FN+F8 BT control. Second one is full Toshiba version including BT manager. That one has cool options like BT remote but activesync via BT does not work.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] vadgri:
I have removed my Toshiba BT stack and tryed ActiveSync with MS bluetooth. It does work. So the problem is in Toshiba BT stack. Thanks a lot to everybody for help.

I hope it does too! :P I am trying to get 9.7 and 10 to play nice together for the next build. Among a lot of other things.

I haven't had much time for anything but work lately (holidays for me mean more work, and no fun. :P) so I have only been able to do rom stuff for maybe 15 minutes a day, which is not much at all since it takes that long to build and flash it. lol I actually have the same rom flashed on my phone since the last release which is odd for me, normally I am flashing daily to test new changed in the roms.

Is Hard SPL upgrade required ?

Hey guys, this ROM really looks like a gem, i have downloaded it and when i tried to install is, it says error 270, utility corrupt

Now i know that should mean that my device CID is locked, but its not, i have used cooked ROMs before, and am currenlty running Milky6682 ROM

Is there any way my device could have got locked again ?

Is there any simple way to see if my device is locked or not ?

I would be hesitant to Flash my device with Hard SPL as the last time i did it, i bricked it.....I want to know from you guys if ya'll think the ROM doesnt get installed becasue of Hard SPL or something else, thank you guys in advance....

My bad, i never noticed this to be a Topaz thread, it was a google search (i have an elfin)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pencilcase:
i am assumkind you do not yet have the newer hard-spl installed which is required for these roms.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:

Anyways, work continues on the latest build. Seems to be going very well. Everything is working well, opera 9.7 has hardware zoom again, and it also plays nice with opera 10 (both are included for your viewing pleasure) :D I will be attempting to make a new theme included for the holidays, something with a cozy feel to it. :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:

It is being worked on, I am trying a lot of different things to get it to work right, between .reg keys, provxml files, different packages, soon i will be trying to dump the device registry and compare it to a "fixed" one to see what is changed as maybe there is some other setting changing it.

I use this ROM (28002x1M) for a 5 days, and it's looks very good ;), but I have one question: could you make a zoom bar support? It's mean, when I used X-Treme ROM, here zoom bar is working for example in mails - when I slide on it, it moves more than one email message. It works in SMS, EMAIL, PHOTOS, WEATHER, CALENDAR.

It is faster, than when you have to slide it one by one.

Nice to see you here again. New Theme looks really great!

New HTC packages looks better than the last one, seems to be all a little bit better - now testing HTC messaging app ;-)

Build 28005 seems also to be stable and fast...

Tried an older German 28002 ROM in the past days and had there a lot of battery use during a call - e.g. 10 minutes - loss of 10% battery! - too much I think.

Update: Looks that HTC solved something in HTC SMS messaging tool. New 1921.1619 works much better and faster than older versions.

Is there an working solution for 16 shortcut in home tab for that new Manila 2.5 version?

How can I configure ShowCase?

I have tested your latest version (Build 28005), for the last 4 hours, and i found no bugs but great speed.

I think currently the best 6.5.x Rom for daily usage.

Top Job!

Personally, I use the Microsoft MyPhone as an SMS backup when I need one. But I rarely back up my stuff.

I spammed my phone last night before the release with about 50 messages, and it still seemed to work good. It does work faster and less buggy which is great. Sure it is probably not as quick as the default, but I am sure it is really close.

3. Restore messages

Work with 515 SMS on my TD2 ;-)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] User_99:
Currently I've 515 SMS stored in my TD2.

Much faster than with x.2525 built. With that appl. it takes around 10-15 sec to get an overview in the HTC SMS appl. Now it takes around 2-3 sec.

The same time if I want to sent a new SMS or do a reply. OK, not as fast as the original WM messaging application, but I like this new HTC stuff ;-)

FYI, I do only use the traditional mode in HTC SMS application!
