[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
ok i have done a hard reset, deactivated htc sense, then installed windows live from the web instead of from the marketplace, and it worked fine this time.

i also re-enabled sense after syncing, and it seems to work better. i did not get that timezone error popup anymore.

however, htc sense really is a bit slow, especially on startup, but also the weather animations.

also, sometimes some unnecessary scrollbars appear.

apart from that, battery usage seems to be fine.

oh, and touch feedback does not work, e.g. the phone does not vibrate when you type.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] surfacing8671:
The messaging part is super buggy and will lock up and freeze. This happens after i had synced it with the my phone thingy and it downloaded all of my text messages. i dont know if this had anything to do with it but it was supper buggy and i had to restart it everytime. Great cook though.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] surfacing8671:
Also i cant send any text messages.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
odd, i dont have any problems with messaging, and i even synced my messages with myphone.

did you try a hard reset? that seems to have cured lots of things for me.

the only issues i am having at the moment is the poor manila performance on startup and slow weather animations, the useless scroll bar in the calling screen and the touch feedback not working. didn't test gps yet.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
I have a problem with the calendar. I imported my appointments with PIM Backup and now it does not disappear from the lock screen. The appointment was in the past (on monday to be exact) and I even deleted it from the calendar but it still pops up on the lock screen.

EDIT:

I just made a test run, I have no problems with messaging. I did a hard reset just after flashing (flashing, auto setup, hard reset, auto setup, use).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Rice8Daddy:
Slow manila startup and pointless scroll bar seems to be the biggest thing, I have just stopped restarting my phone so sense don't need to reboot.

I really need the top left shortcut to task manager to come back though, for some reason it just isn't working, I opened task manager this morning, and found that there were about 10 apps running in the background. Not that it slowed the phone down (which seems odd, not that I think about it), I just want to be able to view and close the apps as easily as possible.

The only problem I have with messaging is that space bars seems to be processed very slowly, so each time I press 'space' and I to wait for it to register, otherwise, the message would have been typed without space. I'm going to install a proprietary keyboard to see if that solved the problem.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
The taskmanager stuff works perfectly here. Just tap the top bar on the free space and it opens up.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] J-r0en:
Hmm i've tried the ROM, but i have a huge problem.

I flashed my topaz from dutty 7.2 to 28014 shadowline, and it first worked okay i guess didnt really try it. i immidiatly installed MyPhone and updated it, got my contacts back and stuff, and since then Sense2.5 ui crashes.. soft reset, right after startup crash, cant even change tabs. hardreset, Sense2.5ui crash.

I cant seem to get rid of it.. going to reflash the phone i guess, maybe that works.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
Already answered several times: In that version the contact favs are broken and cause manila to crash.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] J-r0en:
Hmm I did searched this thread for 'sense crash' just found one reply and it wasnt about my problem :p

Fail searching i guess, thanks for the fast answer
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
well it doesnt really crash, it just hangs :P
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
Shadowline, could you please set Opera 10 as default browser in your next release? Links always opening in IE sucks...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] surfacing8671:
I did do a hard reset initially then i did the whole MyPhone thing. I eventually deleted all of my messages and then after that it finally worked. The HTC messaging app is pretty slow and i think that was an issue. i had over 2000 text messages and when i would look at a conversation it would take forever to load it and it would sometimes crash. After deleting all of the messages it seemed to work a lot better. I currently have reflashed my rom to another one but this one is really sweet.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mikevillarroel:
shadowline,

could you share the those wallpapers ??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] perern:
is this better than Dutty's R6?

if its better i will use it
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
You're not alone. Still waiting for HTC to produce a fast, smooth, functional HTC Messaging for Sense 2.5 that can take restored messages from PIM Backup.

The one right one is a piece of junk. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
It contains 6.5.3, Dutty is using 6.5.

6.5.3 is better, bigger buttons etc. Dutty's ROM I think is more stable and with many different languages.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
Somehow the automatic updates of weather and twitter do not seem to work. I have set twitter updates to 15min, but it never refreshes. And when I select the tab it switches to the new time but does not update until I select "Update now".

With weather it does not update in the background, but at least when I select the tab is automatically gets new data.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
oh, ie complains about the about:blank page unable to load, or something similar.

i have not found a way in opera to set it as default browser btw... opera 10 looks really good i must say
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
I think your latest ROM is fast and I really like WMBHTC_Shadowline theme :)

PS! Do anyone know how I can get access to the "windows" folder when I have plugged my phone to my computer? It's only "My Document", "Music" etc. there, and not a "windows" folder like it is when I'm doing the same on my phone.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
There is and there should be \Windows folder on your device once you plug it succesfully thru a USB cable via Activesync or Windows Mobile Center. :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
You need to disable the option "Hide protected system files" or sth like that in the folder options (extras -> folder options -> view (in WinXP,since Vista the options are located in the first menu (organize or sth like that))). The windows folder is marked as protected system file and hidden by default.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] blankulus:
tried again and the same thing happens...oh well :-(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] tainle:
does anyone else get the setsystimezone.exe error with this rom? i dont know why i get this error. i know there is a fix cab file out there. but can the chef fix it ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] amelsfort:
I had the same error. I just installed the fix, but it still didn't work. It only stopped the error, but I didn't set the correct timezone.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
i had that error, but strangely, after doing a hard reset, it didnt appear anymore...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
Something new, Shadowline?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
yeah, what about windows mobile 7 for the diamond2 :P
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Sorry, i have been working both my jobs with little time in between. I am getting quite tired of looking at the same screen this long so I need to make a new rom to flash. :P

Too bad WM7 wont work on the TD2. :P Though I am not sure if I will like it right away until I see more about it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] florinr08:
Will it definitely not work on TD2?? :( Is it because it won't natively support resistive screens or what? :/ Ok I'm thinking on saving up for a WP7 phone later this year or early next year. :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
Afaik it has several resons...the screen is one of them but also drivers (there is/will be no WM7 phone with hardware close to the TD2), hardware requirements (our TD2s are a bit slow for WM7) and so on...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
Maybe this is something that you can put in to your new build, http://pocketnow.com/hardware-1/htc-hd-mini-new-lock-screen
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
TBH I like the original lock screen more :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
An error I have found now is that my phone no longer find the memory card I have. So my phone can't find the programs, pictures, etc. I have there. So I need to reinstall the ROM.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] federaly:
WinPho7

Anyone know if there is a likely hood that the WinPho7 keyboard will be ported to 6.5?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] perern:
i flashed the one on the first page, and its only 6.5.1

is there a 6.5.3 version of it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] madz001:
click on download now button you will be directed to latest build... and also thr u will find link to previous build... hopefully u will find 6.5.3 there : )
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
It is 6.5.3, it just says 6.5.1 in the splash screen because it has not been updated.

Also the build linked in the first post is quite old, try searching the thread for "Revision 3" and you should find a post from Shadowline where he advertises the current Rev3 test build. It works quite good and is worth testing.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] virgothinker1976:
Hello Dears,

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rko89:
hallo,

wow amazing - i have a htc hd2 and i want this 6.5 version but i have no idea how do i make it ? can anyone tell my step by step how to make this version on my hd2.

please.

thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
this is a topaz (TD2) ROM, if you flash it on a HD2 you will probably kill your phone! ask in the HD2 forum for ROMs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
shadowline, any news about your topaz rom? any new revision coming? :)

guess you're pretty busy these days.

did you experience / have a fix for the huge laggyness of the sense?

the phone is so unresponsive at times :(

cheers
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
I have experienced an odd behaviour the last days. I answered a call, and after that the view was displaced to the right. The graphics were moved some pixels (guess 20-50) to the right and the cut area was placed in the free space on the left. I was only able to restore to normal by restarting the phone. Quite funny was the fact that the touch areas were normal, so I had to click left of the items I wanted to use. It is no HTC Sense error, the problem remained after switching to Windows Default home items.

EDIT: I'm using the Rev3.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Rolen1:
rom is rather good) but

1. first starting sense ui is tooooo long:D

2. Shadowline, can u make opera the default browser in ur rom?(ie sucks:D)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Lukas251:
polish language pack it is posible?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] janaoseioqxcreva:
Is there any tutorial or how to flash it????

Because I past the last 3 days reading the entire forum and dont find any, and my TD2 start to flash but remains on 0% until it stop.

Then I remove the battery, put it again and everything is the normal. I dont know what I'm doing wrong :(

Any help please??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
Read the sticky on how to flash a ROM, it's a complete manual/instructions/tutorials.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
just a note to say that i am now playing with the NhatHoa ROM from http://htcpedia.com/NhatHoa_Topaz_WWE_Rom_23541_Feb_26_2010/soft/htc-topaz-rom?page=2?page=2 which is wm build 23541 and Manila Manila 2.5.20121412 with footprints, documents tabs.

the rom is performing really well, it's stable and snappy, and it also contains the htc notification page when you tap the top right portion of the screen.

i guess if nhathoa can do it, shadowline can do it too :) gogogogogogogo! :P
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] vel726:
Hi,

Just installed this ROM and i love it.

I have the SetSysTimeZone issue but i cant seem to find the fix. Search high and low within the thread.

Am I blind? :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
Where are you, Shadowline? :p
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DaBountyHunter:
Just flashed this got an issue with the ROM. When I click all settings in settings tab it takes me to connections settings not the screen to see today, power etc... or is it supposed to be like that?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Well it isn't "supposed" to be like that. It is because I can not seem to find a newer working TF3D. Actually I take that back, I have one, but it would require quite a lot to get it to work properly. So for now until I can fix the one I have, or find a new one, the start>settings option still is there.

I would love to get my hands on a more final TF3D2.5 to cook in. But that's as likely right now as me cooking WM7 this week. :P
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ttppeewee:
HMMMM, I know that it works in TOM ROMs. That I used befor, but I link your ROM. Hope you finde af job some...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] zard:
Not sure if this is a bug. In Start Menu, to move an icon, press on it and hold, prompt comes up allowing to move to the top or bottom. In this case, prompt doesn't appear but with icon still clicked, I can move it to where I want.

Zoombar doesn't work in opera, works in lessening.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
That may well be something MS have done to make using the ROM slightly less effort...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
I believe that he has newer packages than I do.

Also

@ Zard, l3v5y is correct it is part of the new functionality in the start menu.

Also I am unsure why the zoombar has stopped working in opera, but it seems to work everywhere else.

Though I will continue to look into it when I can.

Also those of you that donated, please send me a PM so I can add you into the list if you would like. Thanks. :P
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] saurabh86:
Hey nice rom ... just a few lags ... hey maybe u can cook the latest version of extendir ..now the developer says that no more lags ... also I want to switch back to the 3 icon view .. I like that .. how can I do so .. Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] zard:
Faced problem with SMS. When sending, it showed error something to do with network carrier not set or something, and my SMS went to Sent and Draft folder, so don't know if it was sent successfully or not.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kevinzong:
Thx!

Thanks for your kitchen.

I will check it!

:D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] sIiiS:
where is kitchen?!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
You find the link in post #3
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] sIiiS:
I know, but it is old version!

21925 not 21928 :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Sorry that I haven't posted the kitchen yet. My PC with the newest files, seems to not want to boot past the "Welcome" screen of W7 ever since a strange power outage last night.

Anyway planned future updates at this point

Update extendir to latest version

Fix up the keyboard a bit more

Add in a few new programs. ;)

and maybe more soon. :D

EDIT:

Finally got my PC running. trying the new extendir now.

I will be building and releasing a new rom + kitchen sometime tomorrow.

In the meantime, here is a new preview of my TF3D modifications and such, the original slider is from here and is made by rotastrain.

(Left is a shot from engadget on a concept -- right is my newest modification)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
The new ROM is up, The kitchen is up, and the wallpaper pack is up where the themes are. Changelog is in first post.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DevilChris:
nice, finally got back my phone.

ported 23009 xip finally it boot but it stuck at after the preparing screen..

any advise shadow?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Did you keep, but rename your old OEMXipKernel?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DevilChris:
hmm i use the old oemxipkernel from previous working 21820, lol all the guide only explain on msxipkernel. i am usin erviuskitchen 1.8, previously i use 1.7 and get the error not enough space in slot 0 (something like that).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Hmm I have never had that error so I don't know.

My usual steps for porting are,

copy the sys over, no modifications

go in kitchen and use "xipporterex & rom tools" port the xip there

Copy the older OEMXIPKernel and rename it to the new version

Copy over the msxipkernel from the new ported xip folder

and done! :P

New kitchen is up. Also the wallpaper pack is up.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DevilChris:
oic i using xipport, can't seem to get xipporterex to work. i get the error executing: dumpxip.bat for old xip.bin :mad:

Getting headache from this...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Really? i never had that either... I am using windows 7 and running the kitchen as admin, if it makes any difference. lol

The only thing i change other than showing it where the file locations are, is I check the box stating that its a 6.5 aku.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] miro666:
I think he is on Android project for Topaz... :)

Regards
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Darkstriker:
Unlikely, there havent been any updates to that project in two months.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] CommanderDuplex:
i think he give the Topaz up...

2 Month ago was the last update , no update @ Twitter , no updates @XDA --> no new Rom from shadowline...

not good ... we need good Rom Maker for the Topaz ...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] N'ash:
:( I hope he will be back soon
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Angus9000:
may i recommend the nathoa rom from htcpedia.com, it works pretty well and is pretty clean.

however the windows mobile stability is not that great, i now am using the new htc official rom with sense 2.5 and i guess i will keep it like that for some months now...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] lightiv:
I would recommend EnergyRoms (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=562942). They have been real good also. I like nathoa ROMs also.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Akademist101:
supporting the later 6.5.5 builds with these? i really like these themes but needs to support the later versions please.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shenggbob:
wating for you, Shadowline !?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] amelsfort:
Still no newer version? I'm also getting some errors using the latest version. When I start IE I get a message "Internet Explorer cannot download blank". I already found out it's because of a missing 'metadata'-folder, but I don't know where to put this folder. Could anyone tell me where I have to create this folder to fix the error?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] illi:
Where are you Shadowline?:confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Marandus:
I guess he dropped Topaz ROM development. In a Twitter update some days ago he wrote something about jailbreaking an iPhone and stuff...guess he got rid of his Topaz and will not develop new ROMs...I already started using ROMs by other chefs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] lathera:
that is really sad to hear :( i wuld have loved to have at least his amazing winmo theams relesed to the public... the whight theam is amazing, to bad i cant use it with any other 6.5.x roms :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] illi:
I am not particularly interested in what device he has "migrated" to. But his well-being. He hasnt posted for so long. I hope he is doing well.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] CommanderDuplex:
Shadowline have a Iphone ... his rom are GONE ! , no updates more...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
I am still alive, just buried in work, and it is true, i have an iphone (someone gave a 3Gs to me)

I do not know when I will return to rom making, theming, or photoshoping because I have been working non stop. lol
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] uygar2580:
Maybe im going to change my topaz into Desire or GalaxyS. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] J-r0en:
Aaawh man :/ your roms were awsome.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jzalesak:
First Post, Fifth ROM, Shadowline rocks the house.

Now mind you I've had it loaded on my HTC Pure for about 10 mins now so I havn't tried much of anything but so far it's great. I plan on getting much more involved in this whole thing, the sky's the limit!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jeffmcc:
