Happy new year everyone ^_^

I am just a newbie in changing the rom of my diamond... I just changed it into benko ultra lite and I saved a lot of memory space ^_^

I would like to ask regarding some applications which u guys can suggest which are 100% working with benko ultra lite rom..

1. TouchFlo 3D = ???

2. TF3D Photo Album [with auto display into landscape]

-> tried installing bsb manila into benko ultralite but photoalbum and music page are not working :(

3. Friendster Application

-> Just got google map, facebook, youtube and all of them are working.. just need friendster for now :)

4. Is there a mp3 player like winamp for benko ultra lite? which has a winamp lite interface?

Im sorry if I ask too much.. I am just really new in changing roms and what I need is something which eats less memory, faster, and which will not make my battery easily get hot ^_^

thanks a lot and Godbless
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] benko286:
In ultra Lite ROM there is no Touch Flo 3D, only in Prime and Full
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BintEd:
I'm using Prime now, and found Sense more stable and less memory hungry :)

Benko, please check this:

at home screen, if i click at "Phone" soft-button, nothing happens - is it just me or its a bug?

Thank you.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Customized:
After some time of usage I must really say that sense 2.1 is really fast. Hope that two hangs was only my bad and I'll be a happy 6.0 user (at least the 6.x will be available :)). The foggy home tab i sad though, hope to see a sunny day soon.

Cheers!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ronaldb:
It's just one thing about sense I always have found annoying, regardless of version. I think the clock use too much of the screen. I know I can "minimise" the clock, but it looks a bit boring... :)

Still waiting though for an update of 6.0 (I flashed my phone back to 5.8, because of the bugs).. sry :p

Voted my ten cents on that pic.. cool shot ;-)

working hard on 6.x version?

happy new year Bencko :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mauk:
bug or my phone?

stupid problem:

i soft reset a lot and after each soft reset sense "does not cooperate"(doesnt start)...in stead of this i get opera starting and trying to load a page from storage or something like that...

after a soft reset with sense turned of it starts but...:o ...this may make me change this rom....thx and keep up the good work...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] VerusAmos:
Great ROM

I did my first MTTY a few days ago. Suprisingly all I had to do is read the instructions well... (I don't like reading, no I disike it, nah I really, really, REALLY hate it!!!) But it was quite simple. Havent encounter any issues yet after MTTY, no sms problems, no calendar problems, bo contact problems... (just don't install Showcase (too bad...:mad:)

I already turned of sense. I think im used to HTC HOME on my today screen... Sense 2.5 might work for me, idk, I need the program launcher tab though...

Overal, I like the speed of the ROM. I also changed the radio because you recommended it... My first too! Didnt notice any difference in that yet though. (what can I expect for changes anyway?)

There is still something I would want to get fixed, and I havent found the solution yet, which is the vibration after connection option. I tried a registry change but it didnt work. manually checking that option doesnt work either. Can you tell me what version of tachi dialler you use perhaps... (and whether your phone vibrates or not after connection.)

Another flaw to the dialler is that the icons of the call log doesnt appear.

Well this was quite a story, i hope you can find the awnswers to my little problems. So have fun on 6.1, looking forward too it, and great job on 6.0!!!

Ps. I should have done a MTTY a long time ago I guess, and a lotta people here too...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] pvp26:
Benko am having the same issue as well... :mad:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mauk:
cant find a solution to start sense on full rom...at start up opera is opend..deleted opera preintaled...set to opera registry autokill value--->so no opera at startup.... but what can i do about sense?

in my opinion a reviced rom is needed

my obs after mtty or nbh instal:freezes fo 5 minutes after the first hardreset at the customization screen eventually reset

opera folder seems ok but after starting opera settings or other tab does not work

after starting sense generally it is i think the fastest rom tryed and seriously thinking of keeping

BUUUUT PLEASE SOLVE THE SENSE BUG....IT KILLS MEEEE :D

thx again
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] benko286:
Thank you :)

I am working on v6.1

With new radio you should have better battery life and better signal reciption;)

Go to start-settings-hone uncheck Sense go to home and wait for a minute than go again to start-settgs-home and chack Sense, if that does not work try

Go to start-settings-hone uncheck Sense, softreset go again to start-settgs-home and chack Sense
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lewisho:
I found a reliable way to get Sense started. If Sense is unable to start, uncheck Sense at Home and soft-reset. After the soft reset, close Opera using Task Manager instead of using Opera's menu. Check Sense at Home again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BintEd:
Hope the new 6.x version adresses those bugs.

Found an anyoing one (version 6.0 full/prime): can't make calls!!

There is, tapping "Phone" soft-button from main screen, or acessing "People --> any contact" and tap "Call mobile", nothing happens!! So... how can i start a call?

Is it just my phone or what?? :mad:

Reverting to version 5.8, for that matter :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] benko286:
Something is wrong there for sure..I can normally call anybody, try pressing on hw call key while you are in home screen.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] aladin666:
Hi benko286 ,

Please,enable two way voice recording in next 6.1 ROM.:)This is very usefully for everyone!:D

I vote your pix;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BintEd:
You're right, something went wrong here... no sw or hw keys would work.

Installed version 6.0 Prime, again but i still got some probs...

hiting "Phone" sw key from main screen will work - it takes me to the dial screen, so i can directly enter a number.

Now, try to use the "Contacts" tab:

From any Favorite, hiting "Dial" button does not work;

Go to "All contacts", and from any of them, wont work either.

The only way i have to start a call is:

Start -> Contacts (that pulls out the default Contacts list). Then i select the desired contact and hit the "phone" key (sw or hw) or select "call Mobile/home/whatever".

:(

Hi Benko,

I finally upgraded to version 5.8 this week (I know, I'm behind now 6.0 is out!) and while for the most part it's awesome, I have had a few issues with it I was hoping you (or someone) could help with:

Oh, I also apologise if this has been mentioned already, I did run a couple of in-thread searches but couldn't see anything easily, this thread is now massive. Maybe time for a new thread with 6.1? :)

I can't get the latest version of Google Maps to install, could you keep it installed as standard as it's been a real pain to live without it. I just installed the cab from post #3 and the phone's crashed! Seems ok after a hard-reset though thankfully!

Opera's bookmarks don't integrate properly I don't show up when I try to do the push pages so I got rid of the internet tab. I then tried to change the homepage on Opera however it gives me an error when I try to enter the settings!

I'm probably gonna leave upgrading till 6.1 as the Sense lag & Opera bug will drive me nuts, lol! Good luck fixing it up! :)

Thanks again, your ROMs are the only ones I don't reflash after a couple of hours! :D

Mike
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] benko286:
To get opre config type opera:config in adress bar.

Also Sense does not alg at all, it is much faster than Manila 2.1 also I dont find hardly to exit opera on every startup, so it isnt that big bug..the only problem I find is that sometimes Sense wont start that's it!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] hurricane21:
hi there!

been updated to 6.0 from 5.8 recently, the sense is superb fast, but the sms tab got bug, it wont appear my sms when i using sense sms tab to sms, but i can send the sms, just cant see the sms.

and everytime i soft reset then sense wont get on, i must turn it off before soft reset and activate it after soft reset.

other than that its a good rom i have ever used, big storage and great performance! :)

good job man!

Sense

I updated to version Full 6.0 this morning.

I tried all the tips and tricks to start sense, but are not able to.

Any new ideas to start this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Customized:
You did something wrong for sure, everything works fine in my v6.0 full.

Yeah, I've noticed the same messages bug.. it's not a big problem but it would be great to have this working in v6.1. :)

After two days of normal usage I must really admit that sense 2.1 is better than tf3d 2.1! It has some minor bugs but I think Benko will show us a perfect diamond rom in 6.1 ver.

You'r really doing the best rom's here (at least the full ones :D).

Cheers!

EDIT:

Install nopushinternet.cab (few pages back) for killing popuping opera, go to start-settings-home-disable sense-OK, now SR the device and enable sense again.. works for me everytime.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kaymado:
sense

Its a shame indeed! Sense worked ok with those annoying on/off tweaks at first, and then after installing contacts-whatever-facebook fix, it just wont work at all.

How is that so hard to make it work? I seen other roms in which sense has no bugs whatsoever... then... no internet connection automated script? ok, i can install seperately! annoying! still no facebook integration, no nothing and the graphics look rubbish! thanks but no thanks... time to flash another one!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BintEd:
Are you sure you flashed the right ROM + hard-reset?

Sense "graphics" (UI icons and such, if you are talking about that) are perfectly drawed and look very stylish, at least in my Diamond - just like showed up at first post :p

I suggest you flash your mobile again, but first make sure the source files are OK, not corrupted or something like that...; also remember to disable your AntiVirus software while flashing, or try to flash from the device internal storage.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Customized:
If it's not so hard, why won't You make a better rom then? It's easy to throw meat at someone, it's hard to do something by yourself.

And installing everything by yourown is the best solution ever, I for ex don't use facebook or tweeter at all.. and with that I have more space for progs I do use.

Cheers and calm down!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Stiophan:
@Customized

I think we shall spam Benko with wich apps we want added and removed, so he can make ROMs for each individual user.

Thats the best solution ever :P...

Nah, Let's give Benko a break now and then...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BintEd:
Benko is working hard on... DiRT 2 ;-)

Let him enjoy for a while... and then, spam it for good, to release v6.x :D

help with benko clean

ello .. I badly needed help with my diamond.. I tried using benko clean without touchflo.. at first it runs smooth but there are times when it freezes.. then I tried to long preng button for lock/sleep... then it asked me if i wanted to shut it down.. then I did...

after I start it again.. it went into restore default again as if I just installed it... so I went back installing the apps I needed like facebook, youtube, spb backup etc..

but after the second freeze.. I cannot get into that orange windows screen.. only on the starting screen that displays HTC and that R-D-G values..

I did a softreset but I got no luck... I tried hard reset and I was able to come to that orange screen windows loading page displaying...

"Preparing you device for first use. Please wait The Home screen will be displayed when this process is complete."

I waited for minutes into hours but it seemed to be stuck there..

I did hard resets.. but still i always god stuck in that orange windows saying preparing ...

is there a way I can get my diamong function again?

:(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] benko286:
Check this thread ;)

BTW-this thread is only for Full and Prime ROM support/discussion!

Check this thread in future if you have problems with Clean/Ultra Lite ROM
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BintEd:
Just to let you know:

all the problems i reported earlier, mainly Contacts options not working, are gone :D

i reflashed (Prime), and done hard-reset after that - it works ok now :)

great ROM, thank you Benko!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] benko286:
Great to hear :)

BTW I almost passed DiRT 2 to 100% :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] robkew:
Same problem here. Soft resets do not help.

Strange thing is that when you disable and re-enable Sense from 'settings', 'home', the 'start' tekst (topleft) appears and disappears 4-5 times, as if several attempts are done to load the Sense app.

The background image (with 'htc' text in it) also seems to quickly flash...

Does anyone have it working with the v6.0 ROM?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] robkew:
Sorry, it seems I did not read enough...

What finally worked was:

1) Disable Sense from 'settings', 'home'

2) Softreset

3) Enable Sense from 'settings', 'home'

Thanks Benko, great job!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BintEd:
Hum... i wonder if the new 6.x version will get your attention as DiRT 2 ;)

:D:D:D

@robkew:

yes, i have noticed that also.

it flashes about 4-5 times per Sense load... i think it's a "feature" of WM6.5.3 and not related to Benko's work ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] mrstef:
Keep Prime Prime,...

Hey Benko!

Nice work again, however, I kind of liked the old Prime better. I just hate the dialer application (phone application?) that was previously in full. The one that was in Prime was much easier to use.

However, it seems as since 6.0, they both seem to share the bad dialer app,... I think I will revert to 5.8 Prime due to this, but unfortunately I cannot get internet connection sharing to work with that one, even though I have followed the tips on downloading and installing the ICS package. I now get the ICS application to show up, and it connects and says "connected", but I wont get any IP address assigned to my laptop, only 0.0.0.0. Does anyone have any clues to why?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] aladin666:
Here is cab. to fix 'Vibrate after connect.'Work 100% with Diamond:):D

Any way to record 2-way call on this ROM:confused:

Hello,

I am using the benko ROM 5.8 but before installing the 6.0 I have one question :

=> I would like to know if this problem (sense don't want to start) appear after all start up or just one time?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BintEd:
Currently, it happens on every soft-reset.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] DrHairDryer:
OK, thank you for your answer ! I will probably keep the 5.8...I am waiting for the next version.

Great job

many thanks

I've been waiting for ages for this!!! TNX a million!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kitjarik:
Benko, great thanks for this 6.0

Sense is really awesome.

Btw, I suggest that would be great to write a reminder in your very first post to use mtty for flashing. i think half of the problems would disappear.

After standart flashing from int.storage i got several hangs in an hour and about five hard-resets in a day.

After mtty everything is perfect :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] robinio:
Benko, thanks for great ROM! Using new Prime and must say fastest ROM I've been using for long time.

Been googling for some time but... anybody knows where can I find/install Manila with new Contacts tab with 3 column pictures? Having many contacts on one 'quick dial' page is quicker to use than scrolling through, even if it would perhaps consumes more memory.

And I also saw new eye catching start programs icons. A little bigger (or it was becouse of 3 column setting) adn really nice. Anybody knows where to find?

Again congratulations for ROM and best regards.

Hi there, using 6.0 full!

nice rom, but I'm having trouble getting active sync to work with my gmail calendar. It worked fine with other 6.5 roms I've used, but somehow now it doesn't work, it starts to sync, says: looking for folders. and then it stops and gives me an error message: 0x80004005.

When I go to advanced settings I can only select "Internet" as my connection, al my other connections (which were detected with auto conection setup) don't show up.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

*never mind, my bad, fixed*

Image optimization.

Sent Benko some info for freeing up an extra 11 meg on the rom using ImageMagick. May be able to Improve that but it's pretty good going for an hours testing. Smaller image sizes usually mean better loading performance.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] larret:
Nice rom. However, Benko - you really need to fix Sense starting bug, and it would be good if there was a favorite application tab for manilla.

Would appreciate a fix for Sense start bug and Opera start, thanks!

ROM itself seems very nice, thanks for the work!

Media Player Controls

After happily using 5.8 for some time, I upgraded to 6.0 the other day.

Successfully resolved the Opera issue using "no push internet", and working around the issue with sense not starting... for the record this problem seems much worse when the battery is low, or the phone is on external power, which is a pain as the only time I reset my phone is when the battery runs out :)

However I have noticed an issue with my headset/remote control adapter... with 5.8 the media controls (play/pause, volume up/down, and next/prev track) worked the HTC media player and phone volume. With 6.0 these controls start Windows media player, and control that, rather than the HTC player. Anything that can be done with this?

Other than this I am extremely happy with 6.0... Great work Benko!

Thanks,

Chris.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] laubjerg:
I agree, sense bug renders this useless to me also. Tips in first post does not remedy anything, neither does the power off tip 2 posts up. The rom is not recommendable :o

Too bad :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kitjarik:
i've got problems with Sense starting on every SR. But the solution works fine for me - uncheck Sense, softreset (i prefer using Slide2PowerOff, not the reset button), wait until WinMo is completely loaded (until it stops being slow, several seconds after the home screen appearance), check Sense and enjoy.

It worked in 90% of cases from the first time.

Old fix for Manila - uncheck, go to homescreen, go back to settings-check Sense never worked for me.

Concerning Opera bug I didn't understand what kind of bug there was. My diam starts with no opera loaded. Btw, Opera itself has a bug - when i try to go to Settings, i get a message "the page isn't found (or can't be displayed)"

Benko, maybe you'd make a poll to vote for Opera Mobile 10 in your next firmwares? It's stable (beta 2) and works pretty faster and eats less RAM.
