Hey Mike!

I tried your 2.6 ROM a few weeks ago and it was pretty neat. Don't know about 3.0 but I don't know if I should flash it and that's mainly because of HTC Volume. Is it included and working?

And is Twitter tab working? With PhamQuang's ROM I could use it via 3g but the past 3 ROMs only updating via wifi worked so that's kinda lame.

Thanks in advance!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] almanbrother:
Thanks Mike. It works now!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mikenif:
HTC Volume is included but doesnt show up when tapping the volume buttons.

This is caused by the new layout/builds. Its on the top of the to-fix list.

The Twitter tab works fine. Updating via 3g works fine here aswell

- I noticed When I was trying to send an email that there's nog 'send' text in the button in the lower taskbar

Also when reading an email there are 2 cross buttons in the lower task bar where there should be some sort of a reply button

Talking about the second button from left , that goes for both of the issue's

- Also missing some arrows on the lockscreen and on all the manila scrollable tabs

- Also I cant get G-config to rotate the manila
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mikenif:
I noticed that one too. Seems like ms hasnt finished the theming. The theme i use is identical to the one that came with this build.

Im about to cook a 23075 build which leaked today. Hopefully it has been fixed in the new build

The arrows in the lockscreen next to the slider show up 5/10sec after locking.

Dont know what you mean by the ones on the manila tabs.

Manila 2.5 only rotates in the picture and music tab.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aussi:
ment the ones in the SMS , Email , Picture and etc.

usualy there are pointers for up and down when u have more SMS messages or email's and pictures

Maybe this is also missing due to the theme of MS

And thx for the explanation about manila 2.5
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mikenif:
My guess its the new htc sense look. The arrows in manila have nothing to do with the ms theme.

Besides sms still shows the numbers on the right and eMails now stack up papers instead of envelopes. so its still pretty clear

ok... was using 2.6 until last week, and got tired of the lagging and buggy sms. Went to latest miri which is pretty good, but now back 2 mikenificent.

Hope the messaging work good, just like the speed.

thanks for all ure work!

Mikenificent 3.0 first impression

Hey Mike!,

Just installed I can confirm the missing text when changing opera bookmarks.

Installed reSTART problem is that I can see all programs in root folder, I didn`t have that problem in other 6.5.1 roms. Hope you can fix that.

First impression, fast, stable (untill now) and no major bugs!

One hell of a job:):):)

Keep up the good work!

Thnx, the rom is going to stay!:):):)

Hi Mike,

As many before me said.... GREAT work! There seem to be many questions regarding the "my location issue" for as far as the weather. I have the same, wifi enabled but still.... "could not update".

Another thing, how can I prevent the phone from using my "HI Eindeloos Online bundel". Because even though I switched it of in the Comm Manager, it seems to keep reconnecting.

How can I manage to connect my phone only on a manual command and not "automatically"?

Thx
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bulleye_67:
Logon to the my location first time with wifi and press accept, then turn off wifi settings then it wil work!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Witte_:
Great Rom Mike,

Was already a fan of your 2.6 and now 3.0

Some minor inconveniences:

When answering the phone on my Parrot Carkit there is a more than usual delay before I can hear the other side.

And some visual bugs:

when you are in the inbox of the mail the first icon beside the windows icon is a paper (same as the icon right) but it is the delete icon.

The same icon is blank when you write a new mail and here it is ment to send your message.

For the rest a great look and feel, love it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mikenif:
- I will look into the delay problem while using parrot carkit. Probably something in the new builds thats causing it

- That button is a known bug. Seems like ms hasnt finished the new skins. Hopefully they will resolve it in future releases
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Webmol:
Hey Mike,

Is it correct that I get an error using HD settings Tool? Is that the same program as HD Tweak?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mikenif:
Im not getting any errors here. Although ive once experienced that and a simple restart fixed it.

its a same sort of program. HD tweak wasnt working properly in the new builds so i replaced it with this cool app made by Tom Codon over at htcpedia
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] w.vangorkum77:
It looks good, works good!

The old solution to get the reminders back works on this ROM as well.

I've got a few small thing for now.

I can't open the icons on the top bar (reminders, internetsettings, battery etcc) I haven't found a way to open regleted reminders. They show as an alarmbell on the top row but you can't open it!

Twitter tab doesn't work, " Verbindingsfout" "No availble data netwerk now". It does this on wifi and on mobile internet.

I'm using Twikini instead now.

I really miss the option off the "x" button to exit websites or programs when using twitter for instance.

Further i have to say it looks great. I'll test it more tomorrow and this weekend.

i have the spl-1.54.0000

can i flash this rom or is the spl 1.56olinex what i must to see in bootloader?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Webmol:
It's really weird.... I tried a soft-reset with HD Settings Tool and it takes about 2 minutes before it starts touchflow. Even after the reset I get an error, It won't open the details by pressing the details-button.

Could someone give me an advice on what to do? E.g. reflash ROM 2.6 and then flash 3.0 again?

Thx in advance
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mikenif:
Im experiencing the same with the app. Looks like ill have to look for a other replacement for HD tweak
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mikenif:
Yes you can flash it

Ive found the cause for the gray bar while running spb shell.

Pictures rotated ?

Hey guys,

When I go to the photo tab all my pictures seem to have rotated 90 degrees. When turning the device they nicely rotate another 90 degrees, so I am risking neck injuries ;). Can anyone confirm this ?

Thanks,

Robert
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aussi:
Yes I can confirm this

It always show the picture in potrait mode.

So it doesnt matter if u take the picture landscape ( turn the device |___| ) or when you take it potrait ( |_| )

Hope u understand the HD stances I put between the '( )'

findings

Dear Mike,

When reading email i see twice the X, when i press the left one it is reply.

When adding email adres pop3, i wonder if it is the correct text with the time settings because you have to choose manual send/receive before you can change time setting in minutes and allow roaming.

Wifi is not connecting it seems to switch on and off. And twitter but that's already mentioned.

I will test more tomorrow.

Issuelist ROM Mikenificent 3.0

Hi all,

I have put together the issuelist for the 3.0 version of Mike's ROM. As you can see I have put the status of all issues you reported (and I found) to 'New' since this is a new ROM.

How to read the list:

Issues are organised in sections like Calendar, SMS, Contact etc. An issue has a unique number allowing easy communication about them. An issue may be of category Bug, Wish, Observation or Info. Info issues are intended to help people set up their device and are not actual 'issues'.

The severity column indicates to what extent the issue is detracting from useability of the ROM.

The workaround column, when filled, tells you how to temporarily solve an issue.

Remarks are for adding clarification on the issue, when useful.

Impact informs you about possible consequenses the issue may have.

Reaction developer is reserved for further explanation of the the developer, when deemed useful.

The status of an issue may be one of these : New, Open, Under Investigation, Waiting for 3rd party, Solved with next version and Closed. Depending on reports in the forum and reaction of developer an issue's status will be changed and new issues will be added, so always check out the latest version of the issuelist.

Mike, feel free to add a link to this post on your first post of this thread as I will be updating this post regularly with new versions of the issuelist and people may find it useful info on this ROM. Also I would welcome what the status of each 'new' issue ought to be, so i'll be looking forward to your update on this.

All, please let me know if any issues are missing or incorrectly described. Also workarounds are welcomed.

Thanks,

Robert
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
Thanks Aussi, but I meant compared to other ROMs some of my pictures seemed to have turned 90 degrees. To elaborate: a picture that earlier was displayed in LS mode now is displayed in Portrait mode rotated by 90 degrees counter clockwise. To make thing even more peculiar, older pictures (i.e. taken with earlier ROMs) seem to display correctly. So perhaps it has to do with the way this ROM saves pictures taken with the onboard camera ?

Anyone ?

Thanks,

Robert
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
:) Which implies you DIDN'T flash your RadioRom. But seriously, did you perform the OliNex 1.56 hard SPL ? And did you flash from your SD card as that is the recommended way to flash RadioRoms ?

Issue

Hi,

Been using the ROM now for about a day, after having used the 2.6 version for some weeks. This new versions seems quicker, which I like. Great work.

I have found the same issues Robert already has in his list, but I'd like to add another one.

I can set up a hotmail account, but whenever I try to change the account settings my phone freezes and I need to use the reset button.

Other than that, great work. Keep it up!!

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] monye:
geprobeerd, maar nog steeds de melding

no available data network now.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
@webmol,

Your data connection remaining active propably means you have an app like MSN Mesenger open, which demands an active dataconnection. Also try closing 'gegevensbinding' in TAB 'Instellingen' \ Draadloze verbinding. If none of these work check if your e-mail settings are not set to automatic download every 10 minutes and/or other services are auto updating regularly.

Been using this rom for a while now, after using the Miri rom for a short period.

Battery useage is great (although i turned off 3g which helps a lot).

So thanks for making this rom and make the HD up to date again.

Issue 15.1 Cange Quicklaunch 3 x 3 Icons to 4 x 4

Hi Mike,

Upgraded my phone from 2.6 to your latest 3.0. Must say onother great piece of work.

Stable so far, and running very smooth.

For the people who want to change the quicklaunch from 3x3 to 4x4 just install this cab and reboot.

The quicklaunch provides you with 16 quicklaunch shortcuts and makes it look pretty impressive..

Remember always backup your phone first, and don't combine this with background4all.

Works on a fresh install.

Thanx and greetings to your all.

Flashing the ROM

@ Thecrazydutchdriver,

It sounds like you have not succesfully installed the OliNex HardSPL. You need to that before flashing Mike's ROM.

To check if OliNex is succesfully installed go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) and verify the screen shows 1.14.OliNex or for new version 1.56.OliNex, which is the Hard-SPL version. To enter SPL to check version, fully power the device off by long press of power key, then power on while holding the "volume down" key on the left side of the device. keep holding the volume down key until you see tricolour screen which is the bootloader mode, then release it.

Weather my location

I have tried the work around for my location, switching Wifi on, without having a connection to Wifi.

On the weather tab it searches for a while, but still after that I get the message that no weather data is available.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
For weather to actually update, you need to have an internetconnection. So if WiFi is not connected, you should have at least a dataconnection, normally speaking. You can turn that on in TAB 'Instellingen'\Draadloze bediening.

But as stated in the issuelist, updating weather is (at least for me) only possible with a WiFi internetconnection. So you need to connect to the internet with WiFi, otherwise weather will not update with this ROM.

Perhaps others have managed to update weather without WiFi internet connection. If so, could you please post here ?

Email

Hi Guys,

Mike first of all... this is a great ROM version

i love it :D

But I found another bug in this ROM

When you go to start --> E-Mail

and close the email window again the phone stops responding

when i use manila to read my email.. and close the email window

then it's working fine

Second there is a button in Start -- Instellingen -- System

with no text on it... the you click on this shortcut...

the system will freeze

maybe you can remove this shortcut
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] ThatGuy2303:
I have added another location to the weather tab, which updates fine throught GPRS. Also with Wifi switched off. I can even have it update automatically, which in version 2.6 of the ROM messed up the home screen.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tim HD:
Hi guys...

GREAT ROM again!

I can update weather without wifi turned on and without troubles using gprs/3g just like I did using 2.6!

only bug that "bugs" me is that I can't minimize the keypad in Opera... is this bug, or a setting problem?

also when using Total commander the bottom command-bar looks streched so I cant use shift button- doesnt show!

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aussi:
I have got a new problem....

When I reboot my device it automaticaly connects to 3G or HSDPA

If I have my wifi on than it doesnt automaticaly connects to it..

Cause wifi also stays on after a reboot.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Smobbo:
I'm not using this rom, but i think it has the same issue as one of NRGZ Energyroms.

Go to: Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Beam and uncheck 'recieve all beams'.

In dutch i reckon it will be easy to find Beam under 'verbindingen'

Good luck!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aussi:
So I guess that works..

But what is the further explanation about unchecking 'receive all beams'?

Edit: So that didnt work sorry :D any one else got any suggestions why it automaticaly connects to HSDPA , 3G or even G on reboot >??

Hi Aussi...

I've got same problem with internet that keeps connecting after reboot and ALSO after cleaning ram using cleanram v1.18...

when I look in HD Setting Tool/Menu/Push Internet Settings I can't disable this option- immediatly FOUTMELDING!

does this has anything to do with our internet connecting problem maybe, or what is this??

cant we just install hd tweak, or doesnt this rom support it...?

in hd tweak you can choose to turn internet OFF while roaming, isnt it?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Aussi:
I dont know if that's the right tweak to it

But I noticed when I disable and enable TFL3D it also tries to connect to 3g or any other source

I hope some one can find something about this...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] djalexnl:
Hi Robert,

Regarding the weather update issue, here's is what i did:

After flashing the rom i just click on the time on the home tab. I add my location manualy.

Then i go to the weather tab, which suddenly has my location as these are linked to each other. It's not the first one but the 3/3 in my case. Well now i can update the weather through data connection for my location, and my homescreen als uses this, without ever configured a wireless lan, which i dont use at the moment.

Then the issue Regarding the data connection, it only happens after a reboot. Just disable the connection once directly after rebooting the phone, then set the dataconnection to disable after " lets say one minute" inactivity, (u can use several tweaking tools for this). Works fine for me.

Well finaly then try not to reboot the phone so often ;-) (Ill try to figure out whats causing this)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
I don't have problems with the device freezing with e-mail. It might have to do with the kind of e-mail service you use ? I myself use gmail and no probs there.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
To the first. I can not reproduce this. When I follow your instruction, the e-mail window opens and closes without problems.

To the second, I think you'll find this is issue 8.5 in the issuelist.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
Ad keypad, did you try tapping outside the keypad in the Opera window? You might find that automatically minimises the keypad. At least it does on my HD :)

Ad TotalCommander, that is covered by issue 2.1. In any case TotalCommander is an old 3rd party app, originally designed for WM 5 or 6. All we can do really is wait for a new version of that app.

Thanks

Robert
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
@ Aussi and TimHD

Let me see if I understand correctly. The issue you are having is that when WiFi is switched on and you perform a reboot, then the data connection does not switch on automatically. But if you have WiFi switched off and you reboot then dataconnection is switched on ?

If I did understand you correctly, than in my opinion this is behaviour as designed. To switch off the dataconnection after reboot simply go to TAB 'Instellingen'\Draadloze bediening and set Data verbinding to 'off'.

HtH

Robert
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] RobertW:
Weather, elaborated

All who reported back on the weather issue, thanks.

And my apologies, because I have not explained my issue sufficiently clear.

Being a tester, I would like to try as many features as I can. The weather tab has a feature that allows you to set it to 'my location'. If you only use 'My location (the number on the right of the weather screen will display '1/1') this gives you the weather forecast of the actual location you are at. When you travel, updating the weather will show you the forecast of where you are at that moment. Neat huh ?

To try this for yourselves go to weather tab and delete all cities. That leaves you with only 'my location' in the window. Now turn on Wifi, and if you don't have a WiFi internet connection, also switch on Data verbinding in tab 'Instellingen'\ Draadloze bediening. When done, press 'Nu bijwerken' in weather tab and presto ! The weather for your actual location is displayed. If you travel to a different city and press 'Nu bijwerken' in weather tab, you should see the weather for that city.

If you add other cities to the weather tab these will be updated correctly, with or without WiFi, but that is not the issue.

The issue I have, with only the 'my location' in my weather tab is that I am only able to update this through a WiFi connection. It won't update through a data connection. Even if I have WiFi and data connection both switched on, it won't update. Only when WiFi is connected to internet will it be updated.

So the question is, has anybody tried this and are they able to update weather for 'my location' without being connected to internet through WiFi ?

Thanks

Robert
