Please......anybody have a solution?????

Really thanx in advance!!!!!!

No problems on my side, my mails are coming through from Gmail. Are you able to use any other data connections such as internet?

Did you use the New email account setup, or did you set it up manually?

My gmail account settings read as follows:

Incoming mail server: imap.gmail.com

Account type: IMAP4

Outgoing [SMTP] mail server: smtp.gmail.com

Untick - Outgoing server requires authentication

Tick - Use the same user name and password for sending e-mail

This is not the case for me. The menus all load quickly, within 1 second. Did you hard reset after flashing?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] sgjl:
effectively, i already read this it in the past.

In this case, any other program than file explorer works without any registry modification. But you're probaly right, for some programe we have to change registry key. Rest to know what program need this modifcation ...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
I always find a freshly flashed rom is a bit slow to start with. I put this down to processes initialising for the first time. 3-4 seconds to open up menus doesn't seem right. I'm sure that will come right down.

lol, bit hard to tell yet mate. Dutty only posted the rom a couple of hours ago. I suggest you give it 24 hours, or better still try it yourself.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] zakariae:
i mentioned in the thread of R7 Rom that the text under the menu-start icons were not centered. i see the same problem in this rom :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Not sure I quite understand what you mean by unlocking "without standby". I've set my device to auto lock after 1 min for testing purposes. I'm not having an issue with the backlight not returning to its normal state after unlocking.

Have you installed any 3rd party apps or tweaks?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Both of these should work fine as Dutty reverted back to manila 2.1 in R8. Manila 2.5 is what caused the issues with G-Alarm and setting a bookmark in the internet tab.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
I was going to ask the as well. Will you be adding a CAB for the game on your site?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
I will make a add on cabs tommorrow with that game and couple others, sorry just came back home:),
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
I never use g-alarm since the default works for me, but it should work, also install the enable push interent cab in the download folder if u need push internet active
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] allanto:
Nice ROM

Dutty

So far so good.

Have only tried for a few hours, but so far it seems very stable and nice to have the programs tab back.

Will install some 3rd party apps tomorrow.

Thanks for all your work so far, made small donation

known problem with file explorer, cannot be added in top 5 or 6 tabs in manila, leave it as where i put it or change to lower tabs
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
R6 might be a tad slower due to me changing from pagepool 16 - 12 and also fixing notes synching I had to fix my xip which also affect some speed, but overall I think its stable and on the road to be The wm6.5 rom I always wanting it to be starting with 6.5
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tony.wheeler:
Initial Impressions

Dutty,

My initial impressions of R8. Thanks BTW - looks great:

Speed: Initially fast just like R6. Some slow-ups experienced. Mostly good but seen some ocassional speed reductions in reaction to program start-ups, and manilla performance. Will report back on use over next few days.

Manilla General: very smooth.

Manilla Photos and Videos: same (minor) problem as R6. If you start a video from the manilla photos tab it runs ok in the 'Album' but at the end (or if stopped) you have a black screen and Album has to be exited. Notice Manilla photos and videos are all oriented correctly now (upright)

Notes Sync: now working thanks

Vista WMDC Sync: no problems and slick with lots of contacts, calendar appointments and notes all OK. Re-syncs seem very fast (faster with WM6.5 that 6.1 in my opinion)

Sending Text from Manilla: the same bug is still there from R6 Dutty. It's minor but if you use the People tab, select the image, then use the second tab to send a text it fails. Other means of sending seem OK

PIM Backup: restored call logs and SMS messages OK (in order etc)

Storage Card pop-up: notice that if I mount the HD as a SD Card storage then release the card back to the HD a new dialog pops up asking whether I want to view the pictures stored on the Card.

Comm Manager: the data connection 'bar' now starts and stops a data connection OK - thanks

Initial Connection Wizard - worked fine for UK T-mobile (as usual I deleted the proxy though - why is it always there?)

Opera and You Tube - great, works very well

Missing Programs - Google Map, Facebook, Quick GPS (and others too?) are missing from the WM 6.5 programs menu area - there is no shortcut here. WM6.5 obviously has them all installed and shortcuts can be created - just no shortcuts in standard build it appears.

Google Maps - new version thanks. (ver 3.2.0 incls layers) works great and with GPS. General question (all ROMS) about Google Maps on HD: why can you not zoom in very close? Is it Google map limitation on our hi res screen?

GPS locks: fine and in about 20 secs with 9 sats (8 indoors!) after updating Quick GPS

Camera: seems OK works fine so far

Facebook: new app? (v1.007) seems to work well so far apart from the Home-Photos area where photos do not load and it stays at "Fetching".

My programs Installed (so far):

- Showcase X Button (v1.0.1b): works great. Highly recommended

- Resco explorer 2008

- Monocube Safemode

Questions:

- Should Push Internet now work? - note comment about limitation only applicable to the manilla 2.5 but for me the last R6 did not work either.

Great work Dutty :).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] duttythroy:
thanks for ur feedback, I will chage to 16 mb pagepool in future roms, seems to be right balance with speed and overall perfromance with the rom.

to enable push interent install the cab in my download folder in post 4.

I will update tommorow with some games, java etc.

thanks again and good night.

manila v2.1 still has sms probs for some user seems it it could be region related also.

I have a new manila but cannot use as yet, probably another time
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] edwinlinkt:
HDWall works beautifully :D All Tabs + Tabs Icons :D

Works for me.. All Tab and tab icons too :D (See screen shot)

You using latest HDWall 2.24?

Try set it to TF3d 2.1 All Tabs "No Compression" :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClownShoes:
The shortcuts you're after can be found in the connectivity folder and the Facebook app is just sloooooow when it comes to photos.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] digimaz:
Sorry if this is a stupid question but i would like to know if this is the new manilla 2.5 or is it the older 2.1. And i read about the sms problem with the manilla 2.5. Can anyone explain to me in more detail and whether this problem still prevails in R8? Thank you so much.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tony.wheeler:
Digimax.

This Windows Mobile 6.5 (beta - but GOOD) ROM includes the Manilla 2.1. As per my earlier. Texting works fine except via one particular route. If you scroll to the manilla 'People' Tab, press on an image of your contact, then (after you are taken to that persons details) select the second tab (which details the SMS's exchanged with that person), then enter text in the lower box and send - it will always fail (a pop-up dialog box will appear). At least this is my experience on this build and also on the R6 ROM too.

This seems to be a Manilla issue - at least on WM 6.5. Other means of sending text messages work very well with no problems at all. If you do not use this method then there is no issue.

Of course the fastest way to send to a favourite (who is in the People tab) is to show their image (not press it) then use the button below their image that is the 'create text message' button - this also works fine :).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Alarm bug still present

Dutty, I just tested the alarm and it still only works if you have the reminder tone set the same as the alarm tone. I personally prefer a shorter tone for my reminders. Do we have any Idea as to what the cause is for the alarm not working as it should? I know in Miri's latest v.25 this bug isn't present. This bug is one that I would really like to see fixed as I don't use third party apps for the alarm.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Just had time to test a few known problems:

- Notes synchronization is fixed

- ROM feels smooth and fast, will have a better feel for it tomorrow.

- No issues with timezones

Its almost 5 am here, I'll be using R8 a lot tomorrow so I'll have a better feel for other things such as SMS & battery etc.

Good night everyone.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ClydeB1:
I have just tried to change the backlight settings on mine to 1 minute and it works.

Just checking, what settings do you have for turn off back light and turn off device (on battery)? Mine are set at 30 sec and 1 min respectively (but as I say, I changed this to 1 min and this also worked.)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tyrrell9:
Just got all the emails through since I posted, without changing anything. Did check the settings though and were all the same. Internet had been working fine, and am sitting next to the router so should be no problem with that.

Oh well, cheers for the help, will see if it keeps on working :).
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rb0135:
Same issue here as well. The small notification icon in the taskbar DOES NOT disappear when the Bluetooth is connected. Clicking on the taskbar notification shows a BLUETOOTH DISCONNECTED message when it isnt.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Yeah, it's still here.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Are you saying that you don't see a BT icon when connected? That's strange because I don't have this problem, BT icon (headset) always shows when connected and disappears when disconnected.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] fwt:
Hm ... strange ... 'cause I'm still on R6 and it is like you discribed.

But no big deal ... for any of us ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tyrrell9:
Spoke too soon, hasn't managed to update again, even when I Send/recieve manually. Also seemingly can no longer get into Options in the Gmail account (greyed out under Tools).

Hi Dutty, The R8 is working gr8, Reasonable battery life, and good performance all round. I do have one request though.

Is it possible to have the HTC Keyboard from v3.9XT?

I honestly think it's better and more user friendly than the new one. If I can get that I'm not sure I'll be changing my ROM atleast for a few months. Thanks in advance.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
Yes, I think it broke somewhere after R3 or R4.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] makbil:
This means that there is an active data connection, probably still trying to download your email.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tboy2000:
BUMP. I too would like a cab for the old HTC keyboard which I find much better than the new one too. Its the new keyboard which is preventing me from flashing past R3 version where the old keyboard was last used.

Thanks Dutty. I agree that this would be a worthwhile fix as I have had to patch the registry in R6/8.

Also not sure if this is affecting anyone else, but my bluetooth device icons appear a little screwy like they're torn in half. Can anyone else confirm?

Apart from these very minor niggles R8 is awesome...

ClydeB1, thanx for your help, but maybe just for me not work. In miri´s ROMs the same bug happen.....but I can not see any solution (only flashing another time....LOL!!)

The time zone........here too.......not work properly...!!!

Anyway is the best ROM!!......really appreciate if any have a fix for this bugs (IS THERE ANY FIX IN THE WINDOWS REGISTRY??)

Greetings!! and Thanx....!!!!;)

Just a suggestion, but I personally forward all my Gmail and any other email accounts I have to a windows live account I set up especially as it has push mail enabled, meaning I get my emails as soon as they are sent to me. Windows live is also incredibly easy to set up with the Touch HD.

Dutty .....

Thanx alot for this charming ROM, flawless so far after 5 days of heavy use apart from the bluetooth head set button issue ( Voice command one )

BUT, I couldn't run Need for speed on it ? I know it is related to setting PAGE POOL, but how much should I set the page pool so that I will be able to run it ???

Thanx alot again !

in fact i have just noticed that i can run it on the normal and touch modes but not on the G sensor one ??

any ideas ?

thanx again Dutty !
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] rb0135:
Sorry, should have ben clearer.. Yes, the BT icon appears when I have BT turned on and it auto connects fine to the car kit. When I get out of the car, I have a notification icon come up near the BT icon. Clicking on the taskbar, it shows a message BLUETOOTH DISCONNECTED. When the phone reconnects to the BT device, the Notification still shows BLUETOOTH DISCONNECTED even though it is connected and I can use the phone fine through the bluetooth device...

To add to that, I have to manually dismiss the notification, then it goes away until next time the BT device and phone disconnect.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] FinHD:
I have the same problem with the keyboard that I had with the R7. Whenever I use the t9 in finnish language, the keyboard stucks very often and I need to change the layout or switch between screen and do god knows what to get it to work again. The only way it works it with the full qwerty and without t9. I'd like to use the phone keypad layout with the finnish t9, but it is impossible at this time.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
You could download a theme found here at xda or you can use one of your own pictures. Go to Start/Multimedia/Pictures&Video/ and navigate to a picture or wallpaper on your device. Then tap menu and select "Set as today background". You have to soft reset after doing this for it to take affect...which I still find a little odd :rolleyes:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] st3ph3nt3:

Hey guys!

I've been having trouble with the MSVC that I've installed on my HD.

No matter how long I hold the button on my wired HTC headset, voice command DOESN'T open. :confused:

I've already set the 'Button 1(Hold)' to Voice command and it works when I hold the 'send' key on the HD but it doesn't work with the wired HTC headset. I can double press the wired headset and it'll dial the last call (& I can talk and hear clearly) and hold to hang up but that's it. No other functions with the wired button work at all.

I've looked around and found that I should go into the registry and change the path from \Windows\SDDialer.exe” to “\Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe”

I did that, soft reset afterward but still nothing :(

Help:confused:

P.S: Dutty, you're the greatest once again! Will be expecting v4.1
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Correct. It is going to mean acquiring new wallpapers as WM6.5 utilizes the whole screen, including the taskbar and the softkeys. There are quite a few floating around here you could use.

With me finnish T9 is working just fine with full qwerty, I don't use orther keybs, worked with R7 and R6 too.

So could it be that some 3rd party apps is doing those stucks for you?

I have some little problem with phone keypad also:

Sometimes the space it is not introduced between two words.

Sometimes the screen freeze.

For now it is the only bugs I found.

One question: How many times did you hard reset after flashing the rom?

My experience:

If I hard reset 1 time... battery drainage is very high.

If I hard reset 2 time... battery has a better life.

Anyway I have to charge the phone everyday. My connection is always on, gmail check the new mail every 15 min.

I use internet for 1 houre, I have disable 3g and beam.

Is it tipycal?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] castemic:
With that keyboard I had no problem.

Now sometimes I have some little problem I describe in my other post.

Maybe that is the reason of some people request about the old keyboard...

In fact now when I tested to write a bit longer storys I get also those stucks with T9 and space button doesn't work properly either, it sometimes don't give space when pushed.

Hi Thanks for the new rom! I've found 2 bug with s2us, when I write the password the phone freeze since 6 sec . I don't know if it's your Rom or S2u2. And with the rotate, it's not automatic with sms application! if not your work is so cool !
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] donbronzi:
Why do you need S2u2? The 6.5 locking screen is perfect!!

It is likely the S2u2 thats got issues and not the rom.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] adamoses:
Keyboard Link

The link you sent is for the old HD keyboard.

Thanks for the link but thats not the keyboard I was referring to. The one in Dutty's V3.9XT was a ported Rhodium keyboard with haptic feedback. It had the arrows at the bottom and T9 suggestions above the letters.

The new keyboard has suggestions near the top of the screen and the arrows are hidden so typing or making quick corrections is not as smooth.
