Hi, Im from singapore and your ROM looks amazing.

However im having a little trouble, i was on SPL 1.24.0000 when i flashed the ROM. I double clicked the auto_1.17.bat and the update started and i thought it was fine. until the 40%mark, i experienced an error.

When I was going to boot my phone again, I COULDNT BOOT :( it keeps showing the start screen. any kind souls out there would help me? Im noob to flashing and bricking but I think the phone's bricked. I got no donor phone so I cant really use the 3rd method of unbricking.

I could get to the bootloader and the hard reset screen. The rest are a no go. Hard reset doesnt work too. I tired downloading the stock ROM and tried but the RUU just shows 0% and subsequently an error 262.

Help please???? :(

This ROM is really great, I saw it on my friend's SNAP.

But if i dont have a donor htc phone? What else can I do? I tried hard reseting and flashing a ROM, but its still stuck in the load screen :/

To Unbrick :

1. Hold down the volume button and the ''ON" button/'Red Telephone button.

2. You'll enter the tri-colour bootloader screen. And you should see this :

---------------------

serial

3. Check if its SPL1.24

4. Connect the USB cable from the phone to the pc. Once connected your phone should change from serial to USB at the bottom of the screen(at the white portion) and you should hear the Ba-bing sound on the com showing that it is connected

5. Download the HTC SNAP Update for STARHUB under the News and Download tab, just beside the User Manuals tab(EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU DOWNLOAD THE STARHUB ONE AND NOT THE OTHER ONE)

htc.com/sea/help/htc-snap/#download

6. Extract and Run the download from where it is.

7. Phone Unbricked :)

If it fails try the download that is not for starhub, my service provider is not starhub but the starhub one worked for me, I have no idea why.

Cheers :)

i'm rewriting the italian keymap because i've flashed my rom without a backup..

anyone know the htc code for the italian fn space key? (will change the last vocal in the typed word into an accented one).

How do I remove apps such as Camera and Video Recorder? I have a non-camera Snap.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] an.ghezzi:
here it is the italian keymap ookba, it's taken from the uk long press keymap and corrected to fit the italian snap keyboard.

per gli italiani: non sono riuscito a trovare il keycode corrispondente per correggere le lettere accentate (fn+spazio). la soluzione più comoda mi è sembrata essere quindi il "longpress" delle vocali. spero sia comodo anche per voi.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] Skeith:
i also using the non-camera... no problem so far~:o
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] nightryder21:
Ookba first let me say this has to be one of the best cooked roms I have used. Many thanks. I have minor quirks. Nothing showstopping though.

1)In the calendar panel can you capitalize the "C" in calendar? It just looks funny.

2)This is the thing that bugged me the most. The Application Panel.......

a) you have two ways to add an app. Through the "Choose from List" explorer that looks for .exe. Also the maual one where you type in the location of the .exe. Can you add in support to look for .ink. Or even better have support for .ink then when you open the add app it will go straight to \windows\start menu and i can add the url to the app from there. It will make things much easier.

b)The included icons is awesome. I think you should add more icons though. Some suggestions. Google Maps, Bing, IE, Skyfire, Opera, Facebook, Live Mesh, Aim, MS Messenger, Pandora, Twitter, Windows Live, and Youtube icons. It'll keep people from searching for icons most of the times. We can even crowdsource the selection of the top 15or 20 app incons that should be included.

c)Also when choosing apps in the "Choose from list" it will not let me choose the first or only .exe that I want in a given folder. It'll say "No File Selected" when there is only one.

d)Also Minor but when i use the add app I have to use the softkey to select ok. I would just like to use the trackball. Also the back key does not backspace when trying to edit the app title. I have to use the dedicated backspace/delete key.

All minor quibbles that help keep UI consistency. The App panel does need some work though as the problem I stated above prevent me from adding apps to the panel.

Again Thanks Ookba from the quality rom you gave us.

Something else I noticed. When I am having a conversation with someone with sms and they send a text the text notifier pops up while I'm texting to the person. Can the text notifier be disabled while texting?
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
Great! Adding all of these to XT9 and Keymap Config.

No way that I know of to turn it off during a chat. If it bugs you, just disable it in Start, Tools.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
Yea, I don't see why that would be an issue. You can even delete the Camera shortcuts from \Windows\Start Menu.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] fooyonghwee:
How do I go about doing this?
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] Greg530:
Use Total Commander on the device OR just browse the files from activesync. Go to Windows \ Start Menu folder, delete Camera :)

Hi ookba

I dont know if it is a bug from your ROM or from Skyfire, but I was trying to log on some sites (using Skyfire) and I can't because when I try to imput numbers on password, came letters.

Thank you

This is fixed for the next release. I know I said Friday but I have been working out bugs and making it even better for you guys. I'm also building it on the newest 21939 core. I am not going to build on 23XXX cores anymore until they become more stable. :)

hey i notice another little bug when i use to snap a pic there were 3 choices the left soft key the center and the right when i use to press the right it would give me an option. now it still gives u the option when u press the left key but nothing happens it turns black completly>>>>>>?????:confused:
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] brad1825:
ookba, ive been using your roms on my Excalibur, but I just bought a Dash 3G which should be here soon (ebay).

I cant wait to use it with your roms as well.

donation coming as soon as I get a chance to flash and use it!

P.S. How well does the GPS work on this phone, and does tomtom, garmin or co-pilot work with 6.5 smartphone?
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
Yes, as long as it's a SNAP S521 or S522. It will say MAPL100 or MAPL110 under the battery. Will not work on a SNAP S511.

I replaced the entire camera package in this next build scheduled to be released shortly.

Great! Looking forward to it! :) GPS works like any othe device. You have to run Smartphone (non touchscreen) GPS software for it to work. Should work just fine. Works well with Google Maps.

Test post using Skyfire and my newest release, coming tomorrow night. :)
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] nicolaerugina:
Hi ookba,

I don't know if it will be a good choise, but I think will be better to include in the next ROM the Battery Bar, will give as a more better idea about battery status.

And also, I add the TotalCommander.

Facebook Problem?

I logged onto Facebook last night and I noticed a possible bug when leaving a comment to someone's picture. While I typed, the text showed up as white against the white background (invisible), until I hit backspace, which would then reveal all of the text previously typed in that line. If you hit backspace on the second line, it would only reveal the text typed in that second line and the first line would remain invisible. This was under PIE... Anyone else experience this?
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] cinimod1000:
The white text can be changed to black with the attachd .reg file.....

or you can do it manually:

HKLM\security\phone\skin\incoming\landscape\text

There are 3 entries there:

Dword minorcolor

Dword majorcolor

Dword textcolor

Value = 16777215 = White

Value = 0 = Black

Change all three to 0 (that's zero)

Reboot

Text Input and Skyfire, etc.

Ok guys, so I'm still chasing this Text Input problem with Skyfire and Opera, etc. Basically apps other than MS apps have issues with text input. The problem seems to lie in the way the IME stack talks to certain segments of driver DLL's. Looks like MS changed something in WM 6.5 that's causing the conflict. When tmail.exe is closed and you launch Skyfire, 90% of the time, text input will work just fine. This leads me to believe that there may be an issue with htmlnote.dll but I'm still chasing it. When tmail.exe is running and you send a SMS, something breaks and Skyfire Text Input will no longer work until the tmail.exe process is killed (again, points to htmlnote.dll and htmlview.dll). I think I'm close in knocking this one out but I don't want to release a ROM yet until it's fixed unless you guys want an unofficial release?
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
Again, this is either a Facebook issue or this same Text Input issue.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] brad1825:
I can try to wait till you got it all working, at least a few days anyway :) .

I know its not fun tracking down all those pesky things. Although thrilling when you finally do get them solved.

Thanks for digging through everything.

On another note, anyone have a cab for the tmobile myaccount app?
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] ookba:
Thanks. I know. What a pain. I found the actual problem. When Skyfire is launched, it sometimes doesn't launch et9disinput.dll and et9dictionary.dll. Not sure what's causing it but when they're not called by skyfire.exe, text input doesn't work right.

I wrote a little script to force the dependencies dll's to launch and it seems to be working so far. I will test it and if all goes well, we have at least, a descent solution. It will be seemless to the enduser how Skyfire is launched.

As for My Account, I guess I can cook it in and those who don't need it just wan't use it...

copy & paste

Hi,

I finally got my snap from singapore yesterday. Loving the new phone and the new ROM. I've upgraded from the kaiser (tytn II). One of the main reasons for me moving to the Snap is the Qwerty keyboard as I use email functionality a lot and although I loved the kaiser, didnt fancy sliding out the keyboard to type emails all the time.

I've just found out that its not possible to copy and paste on smartphone? sorry for the newbie question, how do you guys do it? i found this app JZSmartmort here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=382043

but it doesnt seem to be working for me or i'm doing something silly.

can anyone help please? what is the easiest way to select, copy & paste on the snap?

cheers,

kooldewil
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] eran.chason@gmail.com:
just use Menu -> Copy/Paste --> Select Text

then use track ball to find start point of text you wish to copy

press the left (-) key

move the track ball to select the text
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] kooldewil:
Thanks for your help. So apparently this problem exists only in office mobile. I guess I will have to search for a workaround for this or wait till HTC provides a fix. Vintagelove has already reported the problem to HTC -

Just downloaded the latest build, set up all my customizations, installed the widget patch and now I can't boot the phone. It turns on and freezes at the dark/black Windows Mobile 6.5 screen. It looks like some things are happening in the background because when I press the soft keys, I can see the windows' title bars maximizing in the background. When I plug in the phone, the PC does not recognize the device. I'm going to try a few other things - hopefully I will be able to re-flash without much hassle...
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] i_am_rufus:
Your build turn around times are nothing but exceptional!!

Can you tell me, in the latest version, does it still have the annoying lock symbol screen, where it shadows out, displays a large lock, and the big arrow? This has to be about the only thing I don't like abut your ROM. The old way was perfectly fine, with the screen simply locking. This way, I can just tap the home button to see the time and what messages I might have, without having to unlock it.
[Dash 3G, Snap ROM Development] bmnaccounts:
I can't do anything with the phone now. I managed to get past the Windows Mobile 6.5 screen once, but all I got was jumbled/corrupt text on a white background. See pic below:

Did you restore anything?? Or manually customize? I am running the same build with not one issue. Flashed several times too just to be sure. Have you reflashed or Hard Reset? Stop Scaring everyone!!!! :eek:

Yes, it has the Lock as an option. You can always turn it off. Almost anything I add, I give the ability to turn off. Go to Settings, UI Tweaks, HTC Unlock Screen, disable it. That easy. Reboot. :)

Need more info like (Hero)

1. How many screens do you use

2. What, if any widgets do you use

3. How many app icons (if any)

4. Do you use Mail or just gMail

5. How many apps are installed

I think all this is relevant due to the fact that the more stuff you have running will cause it slow down. What I mean by running? Well do you have Mail,Tweeter, Weather and so on, set up which checks for updates at timed intervals.

and really dont want to try, ive heard swap many times within the last 4 weeks im about to swap my hand with a gun and *BOOM*

but yeah 11omb if you wanna try it for me

then please do so

run all the widgets(if possible) and see what happens

and if you try it out for set the swappiness to 60 or 80

[G1 Android Development] xitaxuta:
as far as Swap partition is concern you should NEVER make it bigger than the actual RAM of your computer/phone.

So if the HTC Dream has 192MB of RAM (but only 98MB are free/usable/recognized by the OS) that means the linux-swap CAN be set to 96MB but it SHOULD NOT go any higher dont be absurd..

i've used 96MB with no problems "although it might become unstable in a long run".

so if you wanna use 96mb go ahead.. it will run just fine!

and if you like been a little superticious 192MB + 96MB ' linux-swap ' = 288MB (same of Hero's memory capacity) your Hero ROM might think you have the actual phone :)

gl hf :p
[G1 Android Development] Lakers3408:
Waiting for answers to my questions please!

I have read people say "My hero is on crack, its so fast" only to find out they only use 1 or 3 screen and no widgets.

I personally tried 32, 96 and now on 64

I found 96 to work for a few days, mind you I was overclocking it and was using task killer and auto starts to modify what's runs at start up and killing apps every time I went home just to keep it running smooth. Pain ass! (And yes I excluded TouchFlo from task killer)

So I went with 64 and by far its more reliable and I have NOT used autostarts or task killer.

I I have NOT seen a htc or loading since boot up.
[G1 Android Development] uansari1:
Mike has an excellent point... the fact is that everyone's phone is different, so while 30 swappiness on compcache, for example, is optimum for my phone, he may run at 25 to be as fast. I have to agree with his overall position, and I take exception to how you started off your original post. You don't know what's best for everyone else's phone.

Essentially, your results only apply to your phone. At best they're a good starting point for the rest of us... but that's it.

Aside from that, I'm surprised that many people are even running linux-swap partitions still... old tech.
[G1 Android Development] clefky10:
Thank you this helped, I was using a larger swap then 32mb on JacxHero and was getting crazy FC errors like you said... now I know why it happened and can switch back to that rom later if I want.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
How long did you run at each of these settings? What were you running? Was your setup even close to the same between the different ROMs? Which applications were your testing?

If you are using a 96Mb swap you better reboot your phone a lot or it is going to get really laggy. Ask Drizzy. He even posted on his twitter to everyone to stop whining that Hero slows down after a few days if they are going to use a 96Mb swap.

If you are using anything but Hero you should not be using swap at all. Compcache with backing swap is MUCH more efficient than regular Linux Swap. Maybe I should start a thread that says Don't Use Linux Swap with cupcake ROMs.
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Linux Swap is worse on xROM than any other ROM I have tried it on.

Why don't people listen to the recommendations of the developers who are cooking the ROMs?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
I'm sure your intentions are good but your method sucks. You have provided no details to what you did, how you did it, or why. If you want to explain exactly what you did and how you benchmarked your results that would be great. If you are just going to say "I tried this setting and it 'felt' faster" you are wasting your time. Did you use any benchmarking software? Did you run any specific processes and time them?
[G1 Android Development] miketaylor00:
Cupcake vs. AOSP

@jf4888 - What is the difference between a cupcake build and an AOSP build? Why does one need swap and the other one doesn't? Please explain this to me.

Edit: I'm sorry if you feel like I am being an jerk. I just hate to see people post threads where they give people misleading information, which you have. You lost all credibility with your post when you started saying that Cyan and xROM are different because one uses AOSP and the other uses cupcake. Not to mention your post was poorly worded and you added "I don't know" about things that you are claiming to know about. If I'm wrong and you can prove that you have found a magic configuration that works - prove it. Back up your findings with your method. Show us your work. Give us the details that we need to reproduce your findings.

If anyone would like some help getting their ROM running faster feel free to PM me. I haven't had a chance to tune anything for Hero but my configuration works really well with xROM and Cyan.
