I can't wait for R8 either, only because I have seen such huge improvments over the previous 7 releases of his 6.5 roms.:rolleyes:

If he takes time doing it then it is a good thing because it means it will be better tested and have less bugs. Although any that I have found have not been too bad anyway.

I am using R7 now and it is fully workable for me, as he said its more of a preview, but I can SMS and recieve calls and its been awesome to try out!:D

I am using the Orange UK network. Yes there are small issues but as said before there are fixes for these if you really cant live with them then flash back to R6.:p

Task icon does exist mate, you just have to turn it on

Go to Start > Settings > System > Task Manager > Button and make sure 'Enable quick menu on today screen' is turned on

Also, a part fix for sms bug was to go to Start > Settings > Personal > Phone > Advanced and then turn off 'Add home country prefix to phone numbers etc'

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] OnlyHope:
The point is, thats not only a Vodafone Problem. Austria Orange seems to be have the problem as well.

The forum where you can read the discussion about the problem is on the pocketpc.ch forum.

But the fact that other ppl without vodafone provider have this problem as well, seems to be strange... i dont think its only vodafone 'cause many ppl with vodafone dont have any problems with R6 or R7.

My feelings exactly. Throy's ROMs are the best combination of applications and simplicity for me, not to mention the stability in production ROMs.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Gisbourne:
No reason specifically, was just bugging me that it didn't work when I knew it had previously!

I also felt it was important to stress that this isn't a ROM related issue.

Great news Dutty about R8, looking forward to it! I also wanted to thank you for the new game you included in R6, very addicting!

It's always a drag being sick so I hope you're feeling better now bro!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
It's kind of catch 22 isn't it? The more people don't read and post redundant questions, the longer the thread gets and more people don't bother to read such a long thread.

Just so that this post doesn't make it to the spam category :) , I've been using R7 for almost 2 days now and once I managed to not tinker with a few problem areas, the ROM in general is pretty stable. Still not ready for production though...

HTC vs. WM dialer

Hi All!

Could you guys pls help me with the following? I do not know if it is a common bug or just my unique issue:

I am using R6 now and when I switch from the default HTC phonepad to WM phonepad (w/ e.g. HD Tweak), then I can not initiate a call from Manila: People, All People etc. (they do not respond). In this case I can only use the WM dialer and the WM Contacts list to call someone.

I was searching the threads but no success.

Thx a lot in advance!

Dutty, your ROMS are really rocks. Pls keep up your great work!

I can't wait for R8! :)

Hi,

I'm using R5, and am expiriencing my hd to freeze sometimes,

especially when I'm hearing to music and having the phone with headjacks in standby.

It just stops the music and screen stays black.. :confused:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zenkinz:
how can it be stable and yet not ready for production? :D

abit of oxymoron statement here? :D :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zenkinz:
would suggest you try R6, it works wonder for me, especially considering that I do have some stability issue in R5 (not as bad as R7, but still not as smooth/stable as R6)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Not at all. If you read what I wrote carefully, I do mention that there are a few areas that affect functionality, one of them being changing Regional settings which prevents some of my applications from running. I can live with the ROM default regional settings for a few days but on the long run it would be a huge inconvenience. There is also the fact that I can't get my home city to stay as the home city, it always defaults back to Pretoria.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
This is a great example of why I test the ROM for a while before installing any of my tweaks or apps. Then I begin to install one at a time to see how my device reacts. This also keeps the blame from going to Dutty for something that was caused entirely by the user and not the ROM.

P.S, I'm not saying you don't already do this, just merely stating what works well for me so other might benefit :)

TomTom, G-alarm and Internet tab problems

Hi Dutty,

Flashed my HD with tour lastest ROM (R7). Very fast and stable. Nice job.

However I'm having some problems with some programs.

I've installed G-alarm but every time I turn on the phone (or softreset) the G-alarm tries to reload it self, but gives a error messege that it couldn't start.

Also tried to install TomTom 7.450.908 (in the device and in the SD card) but the install process gets stucked.

Any solution for this problem? I read other threads from other people complaind about the TomTom problem but no solutions, and I really need it as I use it to my work every day.

Other problem is that after tried to add new page in the internet tab every time I switch to that tab the phone gets stucked and the only solution is a soft reset.

Thanks and congratulations for your hard work.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] medicjoe:
is titanium smooth or buggy in R7?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
This has happened to me as well (with a previous ROM) but it was related to third party software, not to the ROM itself. Were you experiencing this before adding any of your apps or tweaks?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Read here for a workaround regarding Tomtom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
In this thread others have stated G-Alarm not working with R7.

I just a read a few pages back on how to successfully run Tom Tom so I would suggest doing a search for this.

The bug with adding a bookmark in the internet tab has already been mentioned here as well.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Buembel:
not sure as I installed these tweaks right after flashing...

What was the software in your case?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rlatarche:
My friend had a similar problem with G-Alarm - it all boiled down to setting up your clock settings and region settings so that they are all correct - then install G-Alarm - I always setup my region - timezone etc first and my personal details as G-Alarm wants this info.

I had no problems installing and using galarm, however it appears that if you dont do it in the correct order then only a hard reset will cure the problem.

Hard Reset....Set Time Zone..... Set Region.... Set Correct Date & Time.... Set Owner Name....

Restart PPC

Install G-Alarm

Restart PPC

Open Galarm (it should Work!!)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
It was an alarm application if I remember correctly. Unless you're going to flash R8 when it's released, I would suggest doing a hard reset. Then install one app/tweak at a time and see how your HD responds to each one. This takes some time as but is necessary to effectively find what is causing the random freezing.

P.S, it's always a good idea to test the ROM for a while before adding all personal tweaks and apps. Just so you know for a fact weather or not the issue is ROM related.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rlatarche:
If you've already installed Tom Tom previousaly to your SD card then just use Total Commander to create a shortcut to the exe.

The Exe is located in your storage card\Program Files\Navigator\TomTom Navigator.exe

Highlight the file, hit file then >>>>>>>>> create shortcut then tree, Navigate to Windows\Start Menu\Programs and hit OK

Hey presto - its there and ready to use!

Text Message Threading cannot be disabled

Hi Dutty, I am now using R7 and found that I could not disable the threading mode of the Text Message. Could you please tell me how? (I know how to disable it in the previous versions.) Many thanks!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zenkinz:
fair point. I would say it's stable only under specific circumstances/usage, but beyond that, the software has not gone through the necessary regression testing by HTC yet and therefore not ready for mass porpulation (in fact, some of our reported R7 experience confirmed that it'll break / unstable in scenarios such as ours, so ...)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zenkinz:
Manila 2.5 takes over the default Winmo pocket outlook for the text messaging function, and therefore the previous method of disabling the threading mode won't work.

In fact, I don't think HTC has designed their app to be thread-less capable, given that they are trying to design a contact centric application . I could be wrong though.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] awxu:
I also thought it might be due to the new Manila, but I am using Windows Default instead of Manila. However, I noticed that HTC Message is being used.

Abnormal heating

Hello, I would just like to report an issue that I'm having with (apparently) all WM 6.5 roms: the device is heating like crazy, even when not using WiFi, or any other radio component. The most common scenario: I'm reading my e-books with mobipocket reader, wireless off, to conserve power. After 30 minutes, the device is very hot (so hot that it becomes unconfortable to keep it in the hand). Obvioulsy, this drains an extra 20-25% from the battery per 24 hours (only the Joule effect alone should account for that). Moreover, when the device is very hot, after 45 minutes-1 hour, it becomes sluggish, videos which were playing perfectly in CorePlayer when cold, become unwatchable (probably because of the temperature of the processor).

I've read that this device is *sometimes* expected to heat up, especially during heavy wireless usage, but my problem is definitely not connected to that.

I've been using Dutty's latest 6.1 release (3.9 XT Turbo, if I'm not mistaken), for about 3 weeks. Perfect ROM, no problems whatsoever, no heating.

I've switched to the R6 ROM a few days ago (exactly when it appeared, on the 16th, if I'm not mistaken). Superb release, very quick and responsive. Heating like crazy. I've been testing a few other 6.5 releases. Heating. I've been testing other 6.1 releases. None as good as Dutty's, but not heating either.

Please note that they were all using radio version 1.14, so no, it's not because of the radio version.

Anyone else has this problem ? Anyone else could recommend a solution ?

Thank you
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Gisbourne:
That was my point really - there are too many people who will blame the ROM instead of buggy apps ;o)

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aromatical:
This is most peculiar. I was getting the symptoms you describe with the 1.56 stock ROM, since switching to Dutty's R6 the problem has disappeared. I have no idea what the cause could be. I have noticed however since switching, my battery seems to hold charge forever in comparison to the way it used to drain.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
I've never experienced this with any of Dutty's ROMs (or any ROM for that matter) so I'm not sure it is related to the cooked ROM. Have you tried flashing back to WM6.1 v3.9 to see if the issue is still present?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] paplino:
Yes, it was the first thing to try. Flashed a whole bunch of WM6.1 roms. The heating issue disappears in all of them, that's why I'm continuously thinking about downgrading back to WM6.1 v3.9, which would be a real shame, since WM6.5 R6 is exactly the right rom for me (I did not even think about upgrading to R7, it's THAT good). Unfortuntely, if no solution surfaces soon, I'll have to downgrade, beacause it's not worth shortening the life of the device or of the battery.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] lovelldr:
Hi guys.

Have just made the switch from symbian (N95 8gb) to winmo (TP2), and wondered a few things. In my nokia, I had the option of being able to look through the logs and getting a detailed report of everything that had happened (i.e. I sent a txt message at this time to this number, I made a call, I received a call, I connected via mobile web to internet etc).

Is there such an option on the tp2? I haven't seen anything, other than call logs (showing missed, received etc), and the communication center bit, which shows which txts were sent to who.

I'm really looking to see when I connected to internet through my mobile, how long I was connected, and how much data was transferred.

If someone can help, or knows whether there are any apps that I can install which will give me some info like this, I'd really appreciate it :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] beast0898:
You need to install a GPRS monitoring tool to get that info, it is not directly built into Windows Mobile. There are however plenty of free apps that will give this detail.

Ok I use to be a Blackjack 2 owner and decided to pick up the AT&T Fuze. I am use to using nothing but cab files but this whole Manila and cooked ROM thing scares me. All I am looking to do is put my home screen wallpaper on all the different screens. I have read up and tried to understand everything the best I can but I will admit I am no genius and I don't want to end up with a paper weight on my desk.

I would prefer not having to hard reset the phone but I guess if that is what it would come down to then so be it.

I am running Garmin XT Mobile

Here is a list of cab files (programs) that I am currently running.

Advanced Config Tool

Diamond TF3D Config

Net Cfg

NETCFv35

Scorpio 16v (4 row icons)

GPS Test v1.04

Resco Explorer (trial version)

Lumos Wizard

I also updated my rom from the HTC website.

ROM Version: 5.11.502.2 WWE

ROM Date: 05/06/09

Radio Version: 1.14.25.35

Protocol Version: 52.64c.25.35H

It is a HTC-P4600

I would like an easy way or a explanation on how to do away with the Nasty Grey clock and do the clear version and is there a way to turn the start menu bar and the contacts bar black or clear with white text. Like I stated I am no genius so I have fished the internet for the last 4 days since I got the phone and everything may as well be in french to me that how much I do not understand.

Here are the two photos that I would like to be able to use on the phone. It would be nice to be able to switch between the two if I decided that I got tired of one for a bit.

I know that this isn't something that probably can't be done in an hour but if anyone could please help me out I would really appreciate it.

Understable; it's a big investment. Take your time, do some reading and when you feel you're ready ... do a bit more reading. ;)

I spent a good couple of months reading before I created an account on XDA; once I felt I had all of the knowledge I needed, I created an account and started asking some simple questions to see how helpful folks would be.

Turned out pretty good so far.

I will second the custom ROM option. I was extremely nervous too (I bought the phone un-subsidized from ATT!), but the nervous feelings just made me read harder. Ultimately, I decided to bite the bullet and followed the "Flashing the HTC Raphael for newbs" thread (first post) by the ****ing letter.

So, after everything, the guide turned out to be exactly what I needed! (The only problem for me is that I'm a linux user and can't create an active sync connection, so I had to use the computer at work.) In the last week, I have tried out about 5 different ROMs, and they all out-perform the stock ATT ROM by a country mile.

My current favorites are NATF's WM6.1 for a lightning quick stock feel, and NRG's ROM for more of a custom feel.

As for getting around the hard reset problem, I reccomend using Turbo Contact Backup available here to backup and restore all your contacts. As far as email and SMS messages, I don't really care to back them up, but there are easy tools for that as well.

I'm sorry I can't offer more to your main question of using the same wallpaper on all TF3D screens, but I hope you are feeling a bit more confident regarding ROM flashing.
