Tachi dialer

Hi Yozgatg, looks like an awesome job... Downloading R2 right now, don't have the time to flash right now, but I want it to be ready 2morrow :)

Anyways, one downside I see with it is that we can't use video calling (damn Tachi :P)

So, would there be any way to get the original Diamond dialer on this rom? (As far as I know, you're not keen on publishing the kitchen?)

PS: I know that would mean losing the slide-to-answer feature, but we all know it just works. No hickups, no bugs, does video calling, does show in-call keypad etc. So, it seems to be a very nice and safe alternative for everyday use... (One way was to overwrite Rhodium canvas files, but it doesn't show keypad while in call. That made me change to my old Nokia, just to do a little phone banking. It was frustrating :()

Anyways, the rom looks real nice and congrats!

Please just let me (us?) know, if you'd consider a little revised version (about the dialer). That would keep me up and running (which I need, after seeing a Blackstone, running with all the features I wanted... Damn, why didn't I go for it?)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lastrebelstanding:
The memory usage is perfect and the ROM feels generally very fast but

without videocall capability, broken album, inconsistent playback in youtube player, it just feels more like a beta release.

You've worked very hard on this ROM and the results are impressive but I still think that it ain't quite ready for final release yet.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] yozgatg:
alright guys sorry for the problems but i think it's because RAR compression doesn't create an as solid archive as 7z

i'm reuploading now with 7z compression so album etc. should be fixed and flash should be without problems now

and about RunCC, it's normal that the bar fills up a couple times and soft resets

* also for video calling, i'll try to release cab of l3v5y's beta Topaz dialer
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] AgentSmith:
Now my Diamond just KEEPS resetting at every boot. This is a problem to say the least as it is time for bed and I don't have a working phone now.. Going back to the old version ASAP. :(

Jeez, now I can't even make the screen alignment work anymore... I start to get the feeling this rom hasn't been tested AT ALL before releasing it into the wild.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] emresumengen:
I guess that was stated (and solution proposed) on this very thread...

As far as I can remember do without USB connected;

1) Start -> All Programs -> ActiveSync

2) Menu -> Connections

3) Untick "Synchronize all PCs using this connection" option

4) Soft-reset (this is something I do, when troubleshooting, maybe not necessary)

5) Redo items 1 and 2

6) Tick the option

7) Try connecting again

I guess that was it. But you'd get the correct reply by searching "57600 default" on this thread.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] gomo187:
So far YOU are the only one reporting this problem. The chef spent alot of time working on this ROM, as documented through all 200 pages of this thread. Its kind of a slap in the face to him when you make a statement like that.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BBLACKMILKK:
How do I video call ????
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] yozgatg:
i'm pretty sure that was because the RAR archive didn't extract an error-free rom image

anyway i re-uploaded the ROM with 7z compression that should provide a more solid archive so all album and flashing problems should be gone with this one
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lastrebelstanding:
Just tried downloading the new file through Rapidspread and it says file does not exist.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Arda4:
Just wait a few minutes, i think we're too fast :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Arda4:
thnx for uploading again, yozgat! Tesekürler! :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] zippokc:
yoz is reuploading in .7z because of problems with the rar.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] yozgatg:
should work now

anyway i'm off to bed

hopefully the 7z compressed rom image will provide less flashing problems
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lastrebelstanding:
Oh yeah, sorry, I just saw that he uploaded the file just now.

Anyways, Megaupload works :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] luzok:
two issues found so far:

1. youtube is old version and won't play.

2. the incoming call, outgoing call and missed call icons in call history are the wm originals:Not a problem but fyi.

would you please at least fix youtube?

Anyway, great d2 experience on d1. Thanks. Really amazing.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] hansch:
hmm... I didn't know there was an easy alternative. Seeing that many people were asking with no response, I had to explain the way I did it. Anyway, sorry for posting the long and pretty much useless steps. Just woke up to 10 new pages of posts and a new ROM to flash. Thanks Yoz!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BlackFriar:
Thanks for re-uploading the compressed ROM! I look forward to this...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Tux89:
Now Album Works
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] HC4Life:
Thanx yozgatg!

You're the man.

Downloading right now...;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fazalali110:
Can't zoom with the scroll wheel. Anybody else?

btw: GREAT ROM! A real treat :)

Edit: Just found out, cant scroll to the bottom in world clock

Edit2: Ok, those things work fine now. Mtty and reflashed. Should have done that earlier :P
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] eternum79:
when it is released the Italian version?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Tux89:
NO! I can.

Only the rom in GER and it is Perfect for me...Thanks!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Kafro:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BlackFriar:
Does anyone else notice a flickering of the GUI, almost an aliasing artifact? So, horizontal lines in the Home Screen, very noticeable in the Notification Screen.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dieguito01:
I have problems when add contacts to favorite, i dont have scrooll
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] silver_surfer30:
I downloaded the final correct compressed file.

flash my device and really surprised by the rom.

The only thing I would like to access is the win mo menu.

May be I missed something but I install in a previous rom my gps app on tne internal storage and then can launch it without reintall it at any flash.

I also like to access regional settings to use french region !!!! and configure also the backlight and so on.....

Plaese help !!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] eangulus:
This ROM is great.

Only bug I have found so far is that the Volume bug is back. This is were you have to turn it all the way up while in a phone call and then knock it down once to get the highest volume.

Question thou, is this a problem that could be fixed by flashing the factory ROM and reflash the R2?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] pinttas:
The rom is very good. Quick and stable.

Can you do a version for Portuguese people?, please.

How can I add the Program tab?

Thanks man
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] katakgoreng:
wow..this ROM is so fast..thanks alot man..for now havent had any bug yet..
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] upm15:
Using it right now. Thanks bro Y. You are the best.

One things is it dont have video call, of course I understand it is due to the tachi dialer. Anyway, nice job!! After some tweak by myself, the ram usage at 58% at startup, which is only 9% more from udk R7 previously.

Excellent!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] wouzer:
Ahh, thnx for your hard work man!

I'm going to give it a try!

It seems the Opera cannot be uninstalled. I was hoping to use Opera 9.7 beta.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lostsoul:
I have the same problem, and with the Internet tab a similar problem.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BBLACKMILKK:
plaese answer me , how do I video call ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] dilema:
do you not read??? video call is not available
[Touch HD General] winwiz:
The phone suddenly has a blotch when taking an image, see attachment. Looks like something is stuck between the lense and the plastic protector.

Any ideas?
[Touch HD General] 8igdave:
any knocks etc? Wghen taking a closer look, possibly with a magnifying glass with the back off can you see anything?
[Touch HD General] Broetchen:
Hey winwiz,

I've got the same problem - and I'm not far away from sending it back to HTC. But it did not fall down... I don't know where it came from! Any ideas?

See my attached photo!
[Touch HD General] Broetchen:
And I can't even see anything under the cover...
[Touch HD General] rovex:
Like an LCD or plasma screen the pixels in the sensor can fail. If in a large block it indicates a manufacturing fault. Id get it replaced under warranty. More may fail later. It could be dirt, but it would have to be under the lens so again its a fault.
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Remember folks, if you plan to return device under warranty. Make sure you have removed HSPL if installed. Otherwise warranty would be void!!
[Touch HD General] winwiz:
sent it back to HTC for repair - i used USPL to upgrade to 1.54 ROMS, so fingers crossed all should be ok!
[Touch HD General] Broetchen:
Sorry for that perhaps stupid question, but what is HSPL or USPL?
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
In future try and read the wiki

The difference between USPL and HSPL:

HSPL is an user-modified SPL that you have to flash to your phone. It overwrites the existing SPL on your device with a "hacked" one so to say. It allows you to bypass the HTC certificate check and flash unsigned or CID-mismatching roms to your phone. You only have to flash it once and then you can flash roms anytime.

USPL is a temporary solution. It takes advantage of an exploit in the existing SPL and then loads a modified one to memory, effectively allowing the same thing as HSPL. However, since this is only memory-resident you have to do it each time you want to flash unsigned or CID-mismatching roms to your phone, because this exploited state is lost upon reboot. With USPL you must still have the right version of the HTC SPL that is compatible with the rom you want to use.
[Touch HD General] Broetchen:
THX a lot...
[Touch HD General] winwiz:
some good news, HTC have repaired my handset. I highly recomment the use of USPL!

hi guys ive flashed with gullem's rom and my keyboard is having some issues as its an english keyborad, does anybody know how to change this?

cheers

mike
[Shift Development] FOOFTR:
Hmmm....there is a post somewhere that I did re this...it's a registry change...easy enough to do. It comes down to changing the number beside input language...try searching?
[Touch HD General] ucarcamagno:
in these days there are a lot of "final" W6.1 ROMs....but i did not find a REAL final rom: BUGSFREE, stable, fast, with decent battery performance, with some application included (office, manila, facebook, youtube, googlemaps, etc)....

i am trying some new Dutty's ROMs: good roms, but battery performance are not good (less than 1 day), and there are some bugs.

has anyone found a real FINAL ROM?

any ideas?
[Touch HD General] -PiLoT-:
i suggest you chnage the name of the title. to have we found a final rom yet?

i only entered this thread because i thought youd cooked one
[Touch HD General] PapaDocta:
i would suggest using kwbr topix 2.1 rom.. stable, bugfree, excellent battery consumption and pretty fast.. and has almost all the apps you want except microsoft facebook which you can download and install yourself :D
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
I would also refer you to this thread on rom benchmarks and you can see performance of a number of roms against each other. Then make your own choice.

You ain't going to find a bugless rom as new builds are always released which come with new issues.

Best rom for you would be............try them all and make your own decision!!
[Touch HD General] onoz:
Even HTC roms are not bugs free, fully stable or as fast as cooked roms.

Try & pick your own favorite cooked rom, it's all about trade off (stability vs battery vs speed).
[Touch HD General] JLowe:
onkolog...
[Touch HD General] HDuser:
The Final 6.1 rom will be the last build that M$ Releases to the carriers.

Alas they will not tell us what or when that will be, howerver when it does we here at XDA will be cooking the Windows Mobile Betas.

As for Bug free, do you know of any software that is bug free ?

When you add features you add bugs, its part of the way that the world works.

As for what is the best rom for you, this you need to workout for yourself by trying them.

I have moved this thread out of dev.
[G1 Apps and Games] The Spirit:
Hi.

Because i had to do a wipe, i don´t have the or player beta anymore.

It has also disappeared from the market.

Can someone share the beta for me?

Thx
[G1 Apps and Games] The Spirit:
noone is using this player?
[G1 Apps and Games] derfolo:
Just searched on the Market for "radio" and OR Player is the 5th item on the list.
[G1 Apps and Games] The Spirit:
but this is the paid version.

there was a free beta version which works quite well and this one is free
[G1 Apps and Games] breaultm:
That's the shiity thing about beta, bud, is that if everything goes as planned, it eventually ends. Buck up and pay for the app.

...except for gmail....beta for life...
[Touch HD General] twisted-pixel:
This is probably better off in the ROM forum, but since I don't do custom ROMS I never go in there myself and was hoping that someone here might have the answer.

I'm running ROM 1.56.405.1 (43972) WWE with radio version 1.13.25.24

and when using tomtom, I get no satellite info. Not a major problem I suppose, but just annoying.

Is there a better radio I could use that would give me back the sat info?

thanks
[Touch HD General] g.tscharf:
the same

i have the same problem with the miri V13 - ROM

thanks for reply
[Touch HD General] Elcs:
First tip would be to turn off Active GPS. Makes my TomTom app go screwy and have problems with satellites.

Secondly, check your Quick GPS satellite data and make sure its up to date.

Failing that, theres some HTC GPS Tool floating around this site and people a load more knowledgable about these things should be along soon to help diagnose and fix.

The A-GPS thing fixed all TomTom GPS problems for me and I can nail down a signal indoors in under one minute.
[Touch HD General] stonedge:
try disable A-GPS
[Touch HD General] twisted-pixel:
thanks but I think you may have misunderstood.

I have no trouble getting a GPS signal (A-gps is already diasbled and my quick GPS infor is up to date).

but, in tomtom for example when it should show how many satellites I'm connected to, it always says none.
[Touch HD General] garyjmobey:
which version of tomtom are you using ?
[Touch HD General] twisted-pixel:
it's not tomtom that's the problem. it's because I've upgraded my ROM (official one) and now the radio isn't correctly givng me the satellite info.

so, I was hoping that someone could give me an idea of the latest stable radio version that would give me back the sat info.
[Touch HD General] ghosty_uk:
i to am having this problem, and its very annoying.
[Touch HD General] crankshaft:
I'm sure someone has mentioned this before and all it was was the TT version. I'm running 7.915 and have no problem. I think it's all down to the version not currectly supporting the rom.

Check you version anyone and report back
[Touch HD General] twisted-pixel:
if that's the case then it has to be a combination of both. I'm running 7.45 too, and as I said, it used to report perfectly fine before i upgraded my ROM/Radio
[Touch HD General] crankshaft:
Check your pm Twisted!
[Touch HD General] vcespon:
Hi, I saw the same here. TomTom 7.910.9185, but only the first time I launched it.

After using another GPS program, TomTom now detects the GPS receiver faster and shows coordinates and satellite info.

Tried to set it to "internal GPS receiver" and NMEA on COM4 and it works with both.

EDIT: The phone has the official HTC ROM and radio from April

EDIT2: It happens when the phone is in fligh mode (with phone, WiFi and bluetooth off). Tomtom never liked this and seems to think that you always need bluetooth to access the GPS receiver. In fact it gets the position data but not the satellite data when in fligh mode.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] xenotimes:
Hi everyone,

I am sorry but I am not a dev at all, but I was wondering if anyone can dev a keyboard layout switch...

I have checked many post and if I am not getting it wrong, you have to go to "setting>local ..." to change the keyboard layout and T9 dictionnaries.

My point is, as a french, english, chinese keyboard users, I have to frequently change my keybaord layout. So I was wondering if anyone can compilate a mix of the following applications (can be founded on market) :

-apowersms (if you go to setting, there is a language filter, which is very interesting because you can choose which language keyboard you need) (and the keyboard layout isn't so bad looking)

- softkeyboard (for the keyboard button, when you press it long, you can directly change to the language you want)

I have also haykuro Hero Rom, as you can see in the following video, there's tool and keyboard button, maybe we can use this as a base....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22qyzEkgL84

I would be happy to help in developing this, but i don't know how
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] xenotimes:
no one interested by this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jules_:
Hi all,

I am developing an app which needs to load images from the My Pictures folde on the HTC Diamond...for some reason My Pictures is the root which makes it easier to connect the inut stream.... Anyway, I am only able to load a maximum of 7 images for some reason.....after this I get the dreaded outOfMemoryError. The images are a maximum of 10.0k each and I have tried loading them several fifferent ways ie with the String path,inputstream, and with a byte array after reding the data with an input stream....all with the same output. I dont see why the heap would only allow for a maximum of 7 small images or am I just not going about this the correct way. I ahve tried setting things to null and calling System.gc (which I know is just a suggestion) but this didnt help.....

I am however able to load as many images as I like from inside my jar file ie stored images in the src folder of my package??...this is not of any use to me though as I need to read images from the device itself, but thought the info may help someone see where my problem lies??

My code is as follows :

public void createImageDisplayForm() {

//get the number of files in the directory...implimented above

imgno = getNumberImages();

//grid layout increases automatically if there are more images than grid squares

imageDisplayCont = new Container(new GridLayout(2,3));

imageDisplayForm.addComponent(BorderLayout.NORTH,bannerVLabel);

directoryName=FileSystemRegistry.listRoots();

initDir=directoryName.nextElement().toString();

try {

for(int in = 0; in<imgno;in++) {

conn = (FileConnection) Connector.open("file:///"+initDir+filePaths[in],Connector.READ);

is = conn.openInputStream();

imageDisplayCont.addComponent(new Button(Image.createImage(is)));

conn.close();

is.close();

conn=null;

is=null;

System.gc();

}

}

catch(Exception e) { e.printStackTrace();}

finally {

try {

is.close();

conn.close();

}

catch(Exception e) {}

}

imageDisplayForm.addComponent(BorderLayout.CENTER,imageDisplayCont);

//display form

imageDisplayForm.show();

}

Pleas if anyone has any thoughts on this I would really appreciate them as I am stuck now.

Many thanks

Hi there,

I've tried searching for this but can't seem to find the answer anywhere. I want to be able to download all my hotmail emails to my HTC Touch HD, but currently theres a limit to 50 on my hotmail account.

Is there anyway of doing this? I'm sure I used to be able to do it on a previous version of windows mobile but can't seem to now. It seems so bizaare that you can't, as I often want to go back to old emails, and don't always want to go through the web to get these.

Maybe there's a better email application, or even outlook for windows mobile which I could use?

Thanks for any help,

Tom
[Touch HD General] d.cortez:
try setting up your email account using Outlook Mobile's POP3 settings (pop3.live.com / smtp.live.com). during the setup process don't use the real email address @hotmail, or @msn or @live, use @hotmaill, @msnn or @livee. once you've completed the setup you can go back to change to the correct email account name. the only downside is you lose the push feature. your phone will poll your email account based on the interval you select during setup. i'm using this setup for my MSN account, where email arrives every 5 minutes duirng the day and every 30 minutes in the evenings.
[Touch HD General] tnewmark:
Thanks mate, thats perfect. Don't need to have push email anyway.

Cheers, Tom

Hotmail account on HD

Hi all,

Anyway of getting my hotmail account to go through the Outlook on the phone, WITHOUT having my account on Messenger?

It seems you can only have one account setup on messenger, as as my messenger account.

Now when you setup messenger using a hotmail account, you have the option to get all emails going through the outlook, and download to the phone as normal.

BUT I dont use a hotmail account for my messenger, and my main email accoutn is a hotmail account... hope this doesnt confuse you! But my messenger is a "dead account" and any emails sent to that email go no where.

So If i try setup my hotmail account in the outlook, put in all the setting like email address, password ect, it just takes me to hotmail.com on my Opera browser, but does not save the settings in outlook?

Sorry for confusion!
[Touch HD General] Fallen Spartan:
Not sure I've followed you correctly.

I also don't use messenger but I do have hotmail on my device in emails tab. I used Windows Live to set it up which is on most HD roms. Once you've gone through process of setting up and sync'ing your hotmail account will appear in emails tab like any other email account
[Touch HD General] Skyline124:
Ah yeah, but the problem is, Windows Live just like messenger only lets you have one accoutn setup at once.

So I set my hotmail up with windows live, my emails appear. Thats good.

But then it also sets Messenger up, with the hotmail account, which I dont want, if you get me? :(
[Touch HD General] d.cortez:
you might be able to setup multiple hotmail accounts using the method listed here. i use this to access 2 msn accounts and 1 live account. not push, but works just as well.
