Strange benchmarks

Don't know, there's something very strange with this R6...

I've been doing my usual benchmarks (SPB and VS) and I get very strange (= very slow) results both for CPU and graphics. Flashed THREE times, hardresetted about TEN times and always the same, slow, results.

Version R5 was just fine, the fastest WM6.5 till now.

Very very strange... I think only udK can tell what's going on. Maybe he's using new components which these benchmarks can't handle???

I use radio 4.47.25.21, in R5 I used 4.47.21.01. Radio cán make a difference but that much I don't believe so. Will try it one more time with radio .01...

I wil report the results in my benchmark thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=510385
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] udK:
I never look benchmarks result, there is nothing better to have a ROM running on the PPC to say if it's fast or slow.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BagbKa:
Now i use a R6 five days. The R5 version is faster than R6.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] udK:
and in the meantime you talk about the R6 I'm working on the R7 :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gimlos:
yessssssssssssssss
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BagbKa:
udk, brother, you the BEST!! That's really great news! Success to you in this not easy work!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Overloaded:
OMG OMG OMG :eek::eek::eek::eek:

So damn nice :cool:

Any release date yet? done in 2 month? maybe 3?

And are you going to use the newest WM6.5 with the rounded edge's ??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pietrucci:
Well, sometimes you could have a look at it. Especially when results are very unexpected (like R6), than there might be something going on...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] OCedHrt:
I don't believe it has ever been threaded in TF3D...only shows received sms there.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] koen-ronse:
I hope that with this new version R7, there will be a possibility to get Brain's Taskbar fully working. So including Signal-icon. :rolleyes:

And until then... a little bump to this one...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DaBountyHunter:
Nope it was definately threaded. This doesn't even show the received messages either. Nothing at all :confused:

hi udK,

Meantime, just an idea, for your later build(s), maybe R7 and/or R8, would you combine the best features of several builds? Again, just an idea. :)

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] trinode:
Is LZX compression the last step? Will there be a non LZX version too?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] aitnog:
TF3D shows sms threaded but it needs some time on R6.

i have a strange problem with the keyboard. i can't enter "r" (sometimes it works),"t" (closes the keyboard) or a "z" (opens the input method dialog).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] satishkbg:
The best WM6.5 ROM i've used so far, thanks UDK.

So far nothing to complain. Just one clarification - My radio shows 4-bars, one less than full. I didn't make any changes to my original stock radio, but did the R6 do something, or is it common?

ERROR: BIG BIG APOLOGY TO udK: I TESTED HIS R6 WITH THE WRONG SETTINGS!

I USED A NEW PROCEDURE HAVING THE BENCHMARKS PRE-INSTALLED ON STORAGE CARD, BUT DOING SO THE BENCHMARKS USE THE STORAGE CARD FOR SOME TESTS AND THIS IS MUCH SLOWER THAN MAIN MEMORY.

WILL TEST R6 AGAIN SOON!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mondilv:
Confirm, the fast rom.

After half of day using, made vsbench. Summary - 3230. Excellent result.

Congratulations!

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pietrucci:
Ok, I re-benchmarked R6, see my regular post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=510385

Why we need WM6.5

A month ago I read a comment that stated something like ‘why we need WM6.5?. Most of us will cover it with TDxxxx’. We all challenge UDK to deliver a WM6.5 upgrade and when it is there we overwrite it with the latest RDxxx. So why we need WM6.5 as most of us uses will install the latest RD?

I believe WM6.5 and WM7 needs time to develop and not to be overwritten by the TDxxx versions. If so how we can give input for a real good WMxxx approach?

Yes, I stick to a WMxx design and always disable TDxxx.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] udK:
I work on the project that it's more supported (I mean donations) and at this time my ROM for Topaz with WM6.1 is more supported than this, so I give priority to my other ROM.

If you want to support this project check the first post.

..and, don't ask me any eta.

Yeah, 'cause the WM 6.5 ROM not available. ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] MasterOfDesasters:
That's what I meant. How can I donate and thank for the 6.5er rom, if it isn't there. So I don't get that priorization...:p
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] marcelvanblankers:
i would def donate to the first person who brings out a 6.5 rom.

i hope you want to be the first and collect this donation udk.....

thanks for a great 6.1, eagerly waiting for 6.5.

marcel
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pencilcase:
i do not want to flame here but i would also donate for this rom and not the wm6.1 version... but as of right now all we have is a preview of 4 screens and no ETA. i don't see the point yet? only my personal opinion.

i do like your ROMS and appreciate you cooking them for the community. but starting a preview is bound to raise the ETA question ...

like i said i would be happy to donate for this but i would like some sort of information regarding the rom etc and yes, also an ETA.

if this post is in any way offensive i am sorry this is not my intention.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jmostert:
Yes, I agree. Just give them a cookie and keep them happy is pretty blunt. If you are busy on other projects…. respect. But why this preview?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ljankok:
I find your post very good for you have showed respect and made your opinion heard.

I totally agree with you.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Manusonya:

Thanks, probably will try this in the next week!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ponchofiesta:
I don't think it makes sense to make benchmarks for every build. More interesting is a long term real life test. And IMO R5 runs best. If R7 brings something really new, I'll give it a try.

WiFi and Push mail

Hi,

- noticed that when wifi is on, still the push-mail does'nt work in windows-default (not manila). The Microsoft direct push button in comm-manager needs to be turned-off and ack-on in order to get the new email pushed.

- also, if wifi was ON and the phone went to sleep, turning it back ON, wont automatically turn on the wifi. The wifi button needs to be turned-off and back on in order to get it to re-connect.

"Make sense" is very personal. I benchmark when people ask for it, when I have the time and when I like it myself. Several people asked for R6, so I tested it.

Lock-ups with R6

FYI....

I have recently experienced a couple of lock-ups with the R6 version that I did not see with R5. This only happened after leaving my phone alone at work for most of the day. It seems that the long time between uses is giving me issues with the phone 'waking up'

The screen will unlock after a couple of failed slides to one side, but then nothing but a nice bright home screen. A soft reset via the reset button is the only way to resolve this, as the power button does not respond either.

Other than that I have no issues..... Even my A2DP bluetooth gizmo works now, which it didn't on WM6.1

Any ideas?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
Do you mean when you slide-to-unlock on the lock screen?

Do you put on the autolock?

Maybe a hard reset (settings->system->clear storage) will help, but of course, back up all of your data first.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] libove:
Small full QWERTY keyboard with numbers at top?

Maybe nobody else cares at all about this; I'm amazed that I haven't been able to find an answer to this, in this thread or elsewhere :-( Please, help!

Somewhere around R4 I guess, the very specific onscreen small full QWERTY keyboard which I prefer, disappeared. This is the keyboard I like:

I'm still running R5, which mostly works well for me, so I don't want to upgrade just for the sake of upgrading. How do I get this specific keyboard layout to add to my Touch Diamond 2? (I use the WWE language builds).

Thanks,

Jay

Jul 29][WWE-GER] udK Topaz R6 WM6.5 - Build 21839.5.0.60 - Base v2.08

How do I get the screen cloning feature which is shown by your screen shots (right-hand picture)?

Is it only avaible in the English version?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ottoben:
Copy that with R6. Often, when my phone is on standby overnight, it reacts slow in the morning, f.e. the slider problem your are talking about. Very often, the data connection ist lost during the night and cannot be re-established. Only a soft reset helps to get things back to normal.

This only happens when the phone ist not in use for several hours. I did a hard reset and even a new flash; issue is still the same.

Greetz

ottoben
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] daffie:
Same here. Thought R6 was the best ROM so far, untill some strange issues with hang-ups and battery indicator hanging. Back to R5...no issues so far. I'm of course not at all saying R6 is faulty, it could be a combination of that ROM with some installed apps on my phone. But I don't have these issues with R5...

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ttppeewee:
I hope and soon today :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jmostert:
Sorry UDK nothing wrong about your perfect job. I just enjoy every moment using release 6. But i still believe we are talking about WM 6.5 and Touch Flow overlay. Maybe used the wrong words... but I mend I always disable Touch Flow xxx because I believe we are testing and qualify WM6.5 and not having a easy to use Touch Flow overlay. If we want to use Touch Flow we don't need WM6.5. As end users we look at Microsoft how they are doing so qualify their work and don't use any overlay to cover their short comings.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] tomtommy306:
Guys, be patient...

udK will release his ROM when it's ready.

None of us would want it until then...

The easiest way to HOLD UP the release is by asking for it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
Short, short wish list

Hopefully you read this, udK:

Next realease/version should be based on build 219xx or 23xxx or hybrid of several good builds (if possible).

Your R6 shows a bit lag while accessing SMS, especially when replying (typing), the windows open a bit sluggishly.

No LZX compression version, please?

Many thanks! great Topaz ROMs nevertheless!

shalom,

i have a little question. is it possible to get the bar from the screenshot above when i push the tasten sperren button ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ponchofiesta:
It's the default behaviour. So it should work already.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Leifu:
no it isnt. when i push the button on the top of the htc the display goes off. when i push again i dont need to unlock the handy with the slider.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ponchofiesta:
Because the button on top is the power button. Press and hold the home/end call button. This locks your device.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Leifu:
great thanks a lot. thats new for me ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ponchofiesta:
I think it's annoying. But I use S2U2. So my device locks with the power button. Moreover is the WM 6.5 lockscreen very buggy (for me it was).

@kongar: Thanks for asking
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bobo Xni:
Hi,

yes the default signal icon (GSM) not other mods... but in this thread many people asked this... :D

If everyone want can install the preferred taskbar and modify the file inside my cab only for signal icon... Becausa in this ROM the Signal icon is in a different dll and so if you install a taskbar like "Dusk_6.5_Taskbar_Icons" or "F_Brians WM6.5 Taskbar gfreek editionV5b" the signal icons will be not replaced.

BYE, Bobo ;)

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Tatsch:
You want to say: After installing your cab it is possible to install a taskbar like "Brians WM6.5 Taskbar gfreek editionV5b" AND the signal icon will change to the new taskbar's signal icon?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bobo Xni:
Hi,

Nope.. for this you have to manually change the icons inside the file GSM_RSSI.dll.

Problem with answering calls

Hello, I updated my ROM yesterday and things seem to work great until I received a call.

From what I can see, there seems to be two screens trying to show on my HTC D2. The screen in the background is the one with the slide to answer bar at the bottom. And the screen on top is the caller ID in full screen with the 2 buttons to receive or reject the call.

Here is the problem - as both screens are trying to show at the same time - nothing works when I try to answer the call. How do I set my HTC D2 to only show one screen - either the slide to answer or the full screen caller ID?

NEVER MIND - I fixed the problem. I had installed S2U2 and set the caller id to full screen. This caused the problem. I disabled S2U2's caller id and everything is working fine!

Battery Problem

I've flashed this Rom and I was surprised about the battery discharge... I stood up this morning at 6 o'clock. at about 12 o'clock, the battery status felt from 40% to 21%. I did not use the phone meanwhile.... The Rom is fresh, I've installed nothing on it. Wi-fi and bluetooth were disabled. Is this normal with WM6.5?? With my stock O2 Rom the battery status discharged not so fast...

Has anybody the same problem, or an idea what this could cause?
