tested the test rom.

Looks interesting, but it have wi-fi bug (same with udk's one) - every 10-15 seconds "Service.exe" got heavly loaded for few seconds and wi-fi icon appear in tray. I think it because leo's oem.

Also new bar too big, so a lot of my apps looks "cuted" by it
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jespersonger:
I´ve tried many roms here at XDA-Dev but this one is certainly my favourite!

Good job!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] uygar2580:
Hi Shadowline. This my first rom loading. I bought an used diamond2 yesterday. I do the "spl" and succesfully loaded your lastest beta. Its runs ok but there some speed problems. This rom runs slow on my device. Its my first htc experience, i used asus pda's. is any driver, radio or other upgrade required to solve this speed problem ? thanks. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rogeriopcf:
Just a detail:

Why don't you put in the title the standard date form? dd/mm/year

If you put only days and month, it get's very confusing to read!

[01/07] for me it means first of July, but I think that for you it means 7th of January, witch is a lot different!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] sejin:
shadowline, are u able to post just your toolbar icons then? thank you!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] evadhog:
Hi Shadowline ur rom is really great and have been constantly update to ur latest work but for ur latest build 23028 that i have flash it on my Topaz it seems that there's a drastic drop in batteries lifespan (as i have jus charge it the night before) to be compare to the previous roms that u have created, i'm from singapore and my network keep changing from 3G to GSM and from GSM to 3G will this affect the batteries life span to drop? hopefully you can provide me with the solution thanks a million.

Problems

I have a problem with this ROM, The wake-up alarm doesnt work.

Also the WiFi turns on all the time without me doing anything, very wierd.

Shadowline can you please make 23601 or 23403? Thanks in advance. Please try with 2.08 base and Leo manila.:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Thank you!

Actually I can't install IGO8 either, I am not sure what the problem is, but maybe a new build will help.

I may have to remove the SMS app, it is slow, buggy and just plain does not work well. But it does look nice! :D

Yes It does have the Wifi bug, which also includes what you described. I am not sure how to fix just yet but hopefully i will find it.

And the new bottom softkey bar from here in on the 'test' builds will be larger like that.

I hate to say it but this rom version is slow for some reason. Hopefully the next wont be so bad.

Good point. Thanks. :D

I will as soon as I get the theme fixed (It is set by the theme otherwise it is permanant when used)

It isn't just your phone, this version has an odd bug ive noticed where sometimes it just wont go into standby, and even still has a lot of power drain as I cant get it to make it through the day without dying, and I don't get 3G here.

I found that out the hard way as I was late for work.

Ack! new versions already? :P

Leo manila will only be included if those versions dont use the huge soft key bar, otherwise manila doesn't like it much.

New version is hopefully coming soon, I haven't had much time lately but hopefully I will today.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] sejin:
shadowline, u just have to post the 3 toolbar images (normal, pressed, and disabled) since u use the keyboard and softkey buttons as the same type.

thanks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
If that is all that you need then here they are (all of them actually. :D)

Sorry I havent had the time to get 23403 ironed out or 23016 with new manila yet. :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] sejin:
Thank you!! You're the best

Sorry for my english if it's bad, but I'm from Norway.

I have a HTC Touch Diamond 2, and I'm wondering how I install this. I get an error that says a communicationerror.

And one more thing, how can i remove TouchFloHD3, and just have Windows Mobile 6.5 installed?

Thanks for any answers.

A Question

Hey Shadowline,

any news on a rom based on the newer builds? 234xx (I hear they are faster but buggy)

Cheers

BR
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Hmm, Where did you find that? :D

Well 234xx didn't quite work well, but i never had the time to check it out more than 5 min. If I can get the time and stay awake long enough I will try to get the latest 230xx build. But i've been running on close to 4 hours sleep daily. :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Tim4:
On 4pda.ru

It works, 23028 build
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
Look at this.

http://s245.photobucket.com/albums/gg59/l3v5y/WM65/23034/

http://www.theunwired.net/?item=rumor-is-this-windows-mobile-6-5-second-edition&5077

New build, 23034 - Windows Mobile 6.5 Second Edition.

Looks, nice...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] low-dogg:
Yeah it would really be nice with the latest build.. Hope it be ready soon!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Well I am running it now and all seems good so far, I just have one thing to fix that hopefully you all will enjoy, and If I just can't get it tonight I will release it without just so you have the latest rom. I do want to say sorry for the lack of updates lately. I am working 2 jobs and don't have much time to play around with these builds much anymore, so updates won't be as often but I am aiming for at the least a weekly update. :D

P.S. I am loving the new bottom start button. It just makes sense as it is now true to the "Windows" style. :D

EDIT:

New Test Release

Changes;

Build 23034

Includes manila 2.5 (buggy position on screen as seen in the first screenshot, may be prone to crashes or slow-ness, footprints does not work. There if you want it but I recommend titanium.)

HTC Phone canvas is back and should be fully working, but does have an annoying scrollbar on the side, though there is nothing to scroll. :P

Also new to these test versions, applications should not have a compatability issue anymore due to the resizing of the top and bottom bars, at least none of the ones that I have tried so far.

Hopefully I can fix the position of manila on the screen, if anyone has any hints as to where to look, even if it is on 2.1 let me know so I can look into it.

Did it still have a Wi-fi bug?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jagan2:
Hello

Hello shadowline,

first of all i have to say that u really r famous in net :)

i mean whenever i search in net for wm 6.5 latest build on net the name shadowline pops out. Bro all ur roms are looking awesome plus ur graphics what can i saw they just brought a revolution for mobiles. But i have a problem i downloaded ur wm 6.5 build 23016 and tried to flash the rom on htc touch viva via micro sd as well as through active sync but i get the same error the rom image corrupt. Right now downloading ur latest build of 23034 screenshot looks awesome but again i wanna know will i be able to flash it on htc touch viva (opal). If not can u make a build for htc touch viva not the roms from phamquang they are useless and ugly. Can u provide me a rom which will work perfectly on htc touch viva (wm 6.5) in which ie 6 will work. Thanks waiting for ur reply................. after downloading i will try this build to flash.:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
These ROMs are in the Topaz section for a reason...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] l3v5y:
Nope. These will only work on the Topaz.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jagan2:
Ok thanks for the quick reply but plz let shadowline reply to this or u can take it as this iam requesting him to make this roms available for htc touch viva.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Brau0303:
Shadowline,

Thank You for taking the time to provide us with a new updated wm6.5.x rom. I am looking forward to it (I really like the direction MS is going with these versions) I have a question, is the timebomb patched (I am sure that it is, i just wanted to know if it will expire)

Thanks Again

Cheers

BR
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Tim4:
Have tested the last rom.

Looks nice, but wi-fi bug still exist :(.

Rom works very-very slow

Also is there any way to disable screen zooming?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] vichet007:
Wifi is Okay with mine. The only issue is that it works too slow...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Hello, thanks for stopping in. :D

As I don't have a viva I won't be making roms for it. Sorry. :(

Timebomb should be patched. I didn't use the patch that Da_g made because the kitchen is supposed to patch it when building the first time (says it did anyway)

Slowness might be from some of the LEO stuff, or it just could be the rom. I will continue to look into it as I don't trust the leo stuff to work 100% yet. And zooming i believe can be disabled by a registry key. Just give it a good search and post what you find here for everyone else. :D (If i have time i will make a cab file to enable/disable it)

I haven't seen the wifi bug yet either, but i think it is still lurking there as I havent changed any of those files.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jagan2:
Plz

Shadowline i request u to plz make a rom for htc touch viva. As there is no rom available for htc touch viva(phamquang roms are waste) only one. Can u make even the older wm 6.5 build 23016 also for touch viva. U cant convert them? :confused: By the way is there any code in roms that they should be installed in particular device. I request u plz only one rom any one of wm 6.5 which has ie and basic functions of wm 6.5 for touch viva.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mokuni:
wifi bug still there. Slowness at some areas, freezes at others. Love the direction microsoft is going with the OS. I dont believe that this rom should be use for everyday use tho. Its mainly for people to have a play i would think.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
I have now tested the newest ROM, and I've found just a few things.

1. It would have been nice to have 24-hours clock, and not pm and am. I cannot tick off this, it's disable.

2. It would have been cool with color insted of black/white on the Manila system, like it is for real. Like this, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=524224&page=145

3. And how about to try to take the clock a little bit futher up so the WM menu don't crash with Manila menu.

4. And some of it seemed a little slow. Like the calendar used about a minuted to be updated after a restart and it uses quite long time to go from acitve to locked.

And i cannot use the "lock-key" that is on the phone (down to the left, with the little house on). And as Mokuni says, it freezes sometimes.

5. And it would have been nice with the weather app on the manila. Like Manila 2.6.

Exept for that, excellent work =) And I'm sure you will fix all this.

I'll come back with more if I'm finding something.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Alexx~:
I use YotaPhone for 23034, it works in full screen, without the scrollbar.

How do you solve the problem with SIP (ezinput), when the keyboard is superimposed on softkeybar?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NoMercyWWE:
I have to report that the keyboard disappears and i have to restart the phone to get it back when i try typing my password which contains numbers - so numbers in keyboard, make the keyboard disappear. Please fix this. In addition -the rom is very low on memory and its only possible to open a few apps before it says not enough memory.

These are the two most annoying bugs - i hope you would release a clean version where those bugs wont appear

Greetings

What is the footprint feature actually?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mikegadd:
Help

Hi

2.21 Rom looks great but some questions.

How can I enter owner name option seems to be missing.

Can we use action screen with this rom.

Also on the Weather tab the text location is to much to the left.

Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Ok here is my multi-quoted super message of replying-ness. :D

I do not currently support any other device except for the Topaz and possibly the rhodium (as it is similiar) I am sorry but I cannot make a rom for something that I can't test.

Yes sorry about the wifi bug i am still trying to find that and it doesnt seem to be in the wifi related packages. And you are right, that's why it is still in my "Test" series. :D

Go to start menu > settings > system > regional settings > scroll right till you get to the time tab and select one of the ones that start with HH (uppercase)

That is manila 2.6, this is 2.5, nobody will share with me the newer version.

I am not sure what you mean, but i would guess you are talking about manila being out of position and being needed to move up. I am working on that but I have to learn LUA to do it.

The end key will not lock when pressed and held anymore, but that is due to the HTC Leo packages.

Again this is 2.5, I can't do that without getting 2.6

Thank you, I will try. :D

That is a problem in the code of the keyboard, I have to wait for MS to fix it or to find someone that knows how to fix it.

The keyboard seems to be working ok for me as my passwords usually have numbers in them. Any specific application? And the rom is low on memory because of the Leo stuff.

Well it basically takes photos of things or places, tags it with your gps, and after that I am not sure as i have only used it on M2D on my kaiser.

Owner info is gone now i believe, but I will check into it.

Action screen I am not sure of, you can try it. :D

And the weather tab in manila? if so a lot of things in manila are off still. :P
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NoMercyWWE:
It happened in myphone and it happened in opera - every time i click on the directional button at the keypad it just dissapears - maybe i flashed the wrong radio? used udks latest suggestion.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Another version of this rom has been featured on PocketNow.com and I have added the list to the main page.

Ahh yes I see, i just tap and hold the numbers on the top row. But you seem to be right. Have you noticed it in any other version?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NoMercyWWE:
No just in this one
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Hmm I see. I don't know what it seems to be but the older version of the new keyboard does it too for me. Might be something conflicting in the new WM build. I am going to upload a non manila version that should run much better. Hopefully.

I really really like this build and WM is really looking good.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NoMercyWWE:
Thats a good idea i love a version without manila that has a full working keyboard - thank you as always - in advance
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
New rom uploading, 15 min, no manila, mixed and matched the leo + topaz packages. Should be better on memory, a bit faster, and fixed keyboard.

UPDATE:

New Test Rom UPDATE

Build 23034 6.5.1

Changes since last build:

Fixed odd keyboard bug,

More memory,

Faster response,

No Manila,

Disabled and changed a few packages.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Thank you, and good luck. This one should be more or less bug free except the phone canvas having a scrollbar, and the volume keys are not working.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NoMercyWWE:
So tested a few Minutes and i must say- feels a little bit more responsive - keyboard bug is fixed now.

Testing out more when i wake up or leave school - here it is 12.38 pm in Germany

have a nice day Shadowline
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
Thank you for testing, and keep me updated when you have spare time and a little rest. :D

Also test for the WiFi bug aswell if you can. It *Should* be fixed for now.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Brau0303:
Hey Shadowline,

My observations since flashing the updated (no Manilla test rom) stable mostly, seems like it has good speed, looks like the wifi issue is there but not as bad (battery drain not too bad) seems like the device pauses at times (example: the getting started utility paused badly) also some things will display on screen and keep re-appearing/not go away.

well these are my observations so far.

Cheers

Just convert some graphics and put new ie plz. I hope i get a positive reply this time:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] htakahasyd5:
Thank you for the 23034 with manila and without manila. I tried both and found that without manila version works better than manila version because of keyboard issue fix and overall performance.

Unfortunately both versions have wifi issue, which periodically try to coneect to wifi network. It is about every 20 seconds.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] r1ch04:
Smoothest

This has got to be the smoothest rom around. Not sure if its because of the Manilla version but it works well. Also very good eye candy.

Thanks Shadowline
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] RufusThorne:
I'm using 23034. Flashed last night. very stable so far. Good work!

I found a problem though:

If I have an appointment, it can't be seen on the locked screen because the start button and taskabr appear oveer the text. not a major problem, but just thought you might wantto know.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] r1ch04:
Bluetooth automatically switching on

After installing this rom yesterday its been very stable and very smooth. One thing which i have noticed is that the bluetooth decides to switch itself on. It did it first yesterday and i thought it was nothing but today its done it again. Both times the phone was locked in my pocket.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
Downloading and testing it now.

I like Manila 2.6, but it didn't work well with the WM 6.5 menu system.

I'll come back...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] NoMercyWWE:
Impressions : Tested the whole day so far everything seems working - but its a bit slowly - better then the manilla version but still far from perfect.

So far ive noticed no errors

Good work
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] VistaX:
I have some more things to report:

1. Why doesn't it work to look at a picture, and turn the phone around and then look at the picture? I mean to turn it around like this; | to -. Just a rare way to explain:P

2. And when I try to tap at some menu's, for example to change when the backlight is going to turn off, the "zoom thing" comes up and it makes impossible to change it. I have to use the stylus, and that's annoying when I don't need to use it on anything else.

3. And in the Comm Manager i cannot connect to Wi-Fi. It seems like it's on all the time, but that may be attended.

4. I've installed i few programs, and the ROM seemed a bit slow. It takes much longer time to install a program than i did before with the origianl HTC ROM.

5. But I still haven't found out where to change to 24-hours clock. Anyone?

6. When I tried to go on "getting started" and on the first option, "clock", I could not, for the first see the whole text. And for the second, it locked so I had to restart the phone. Because when I locked it (x it out), it just returned to the same screen again.

7. And it would have been very nice to have the option to restart, when I pushed the on-button instead of just shut down.

8. And it seems like the calendar have a bug, because when I have an appointment at 13, it shows 12.

9. And it seems like it's a bug in the "lockmenu", down with the "next appointment".

10. Is it possible to change the order of the icons in the startmenu?

If I for example want messages, home etc. longer up.

Exept for that, I love this ROM with the startmenu and the "firstscreen", and it seems faster than the Manila version.

Hope this was helpful :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
I do not know if it is the packages I have or a bad setting. I am using the Leo HTC Album.

I might include a way to turn on/off the magnifier.

So the wifi bug is still there then... That kinda helps because I know it is not in the EXT packages now. Must be part of the OEM 2.08 that I have since it started then.

Might be the new builds arent optimized yet. Or could be somehow my fault. :P

Read a few posts back, I posted in a reply as to how to do it.

Getting started, it is better to just not touch it. :D Actually I had forgotten to remove it before cooking.

*insert blank spaces here*

What do you mean? What rom does that?

Yea manila was buggy and slow...

udK incorporates the soft reset as a check box option in what looks like the standard power off pop-up.

With the energyROM, it look like the Chef has cooked PSShutXP into his ROM.

Both perform the same function.

I do also think that the alarm is bad.

How about to set the information about the alarm on the "lockmenu" (What is this actually called?)?

And sometimes the bottom menu on the main menu is popping up on the "lockmenu", and as said in an earlier post is it an bug with the calendar in the bottom at the "lockmenu".

Sorry for just having bad news to report, but I just want you to make the "perfect" ROM;) hehe!

They are for cooking in only, but just as easily could be dumped into your windows folder for the time being.

wow thx^^

i have a question, can i use the blue and black theme, when i have a german version without manila?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] shadowline:
On the note of themes. I need testers for the new WMBlack theme, it should be fully compatible with the new 6.5.1 versions and likewise to the older. But I need testers to make sure all parts of it are working, menus, wallpapers, softkeys, etc.

The download is the same as the original on the first post of this thread, just click on WMBlack. (wmblue is not updated at the moment.)
