Hi there everybody,

Dont know if these issues have been discussed allready,

But couldn’t find solutions trough search so here my Dutchy post!

I love the speed of the tess 4.1 rom,

However I discovered 2 issues,

When set alarm, this will be enabled automatically due to a reason whatsoever,

I cannot have this, because I cannot come in to my job late after 1100 hrs due to oversleeping cuz my alarm not ringing off  !!

And this happened to me this morning !!!

Is there some kind of tweak to solve this?

Also the “my-location” thingy is not working in Sense 2.5 can this be solved somehow.

Love to see the solutions from whoever reading this and thinking “hey I might know the solution”

Further more, I think this Rom is very smooth and stable and juiced up my phone to do as it is supposed to..

I’m going to have a good “Dutch smoke” now…

Best regards

Kid

is there any way to turn off the lock screen (with the slider) and just use winmob's default lock function?

this slider lock seems to slow the phone down.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gianton:
Start/Settings/Lock/Display and change to Windows Classic.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] laureus:
oh it's that easy? thx alot.

never been in the lock menu before. haha, and ive got my td2 for several months now.

Aman,

I usually try new 2.5 builds, but I always come to the conclusion that your 2.1 ROMs are the best...

The benchmarks never show the lag, the wait times and load times in Manila, and 2.5 is just not up to par with 2.1 in those respects...

Thanks again, I am eagerly waiting for an updated ROM with Sense 2.1! :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] !Aman!:
i guess u have to wait a bit longer, i wont be able to release it this weekend. may be next one.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
OK, thanks. I guess I'll make do with your 4.2 then... :D

Do you use 4.0 on your Topaz for everyday use?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rexriver:

+1 on this... Even though 2.5 ROMs has started to show great benchmarks scores, it is still waaay behind 2.1 when it comes to speed and smoothness. And let's not even talk about album tab and messaging... :rolleyes:

Even when it comes down to the interface, 2.5 is still a mixed bag for me. Some of the things I like, such as the new interface of the music tab and the shortcuts on home screen. Other things I don't like and generally the interface is less finger-friendly than 2.1 - it shows that 2.5 is designed with a larger screen in mind.

I hope that HTC will transplant the good things from 2.5 into 2.1 eventually, but well - 2.1 is very good as it is. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
It's all boil down to the fact it's a Leo ROM gasping for air in a TOPAZ body.:eek:

:D are u surprised that i was never a fan of benchmarks? taking nothing away from petrucci's work, benchmarks do help but they dont always give the true picture ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Now I know what you meant then...

I reverted back to 4.0 this morning from 4.2... It is sooo much smoother and snappier...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] !Aman!:
hehe, i think a lot of ppl would have misunderstood me then (may be even now :D). the FASTEST ones being shown in the benchmarks are just better figures and they will help only the cabs which u install after flashing the ROM (benchmark softwares are also cabs, so obviosuly those ROMs have high values), not the precooked stuff. i can write a bit long on this subject but i guess u got my point ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Yes.

I'll stick with 4.0 until your next ROM comes out with Sense 2.1. I do not need the eye candy of 2.5, since I USE my phone and not LOOK at my phone all day... :)

Sorry to ask this type of questions.

Where could I find the end key button settings? i would like to assign the end key button to disconnect my data connections.

Sync Outlook Notes. This feature is not enabled here?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Tsubaki-San:
I have a similar question, I'm using the 4.1 ROM and when I press the end key button, sometimes it sends me back to the today screen, but sometimes it doesn't. In the settings though, I can only program the answer call button, but not the end key one. Anyone know how I can solve this?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] lmemperador:
search for this cab ......... LongPress EndKey.zip

install...then in windows folder you can replace the endkey.exe with the program that you like.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] PauloJ5:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
just a thought: is it rom-related, or the youtube server, or medianet connection? (try to run the same youtube on your pc/laptop when the problem occurs, see and compare) :)

I flashed it just to test it before I went back to WM6.1 stock.

Hi Aman,

Any notesync in TESS Pride? or any solution to sync my notes back on my phone?

'cause ehen I was using RESS 4.0, I tried to copy and paste (drag and drop) my notes from my PC to my phone or installed Pocket Informat which should have notesync function ----all failed to sync my notes.

any suggestions?

Nice little sound control feature (sense 2.5)

Do these nice little settings in Sense 2.5 (TESS 4.2) exist? (paraphrased)

(1) Quiet down when being picked up.

(2) Ringing louder and louder when the phone is in the pocket.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] emx_o:
they exist but you're in the wrong thread ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Both are easily adjustably via a registry edit:

Look in HKLM/Software/HTC/PHONE/PhoneExtendedSettings.

Both seetings have to be done per request:

EnableBePolite and SupportBePolite

The pocket mode is also there, its easy to figure out.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] !Aman!:
these are not the features of manila, but phone canvas.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Tzeunis:
Very fast rom! Switched to this one from TESS4.2 Sense is to much for the topaz... This is very smooth.

Everything works so far; but in the homescreen my location doenst show me the city i am in now. It just says: my location and the weather... is this normal in 2.1 of do i need to alter the register?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] qbus00:
For those of you who want to restore original functionality of end key long press (show menu with options) I created a CAB from 6.5 ROM (the one provided in TESS 2F thread is working but is for 6.1 and binary files compare shows some differences).

Just install the cab and later change options in Settings/Button/End key tab (which will appear after installation).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Arie_Nu:
Registry

Yes you can set this in the registry, search for the word weather and you find something with location weather set the value from 0 to 1

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Tzeunis:
Another question...

with tess 4.2 i usually have a H-data connection. With pride I i only have 3G.... is this due to the rom/manilla?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
I'm in the RIGHT thread, my friend. :D

thanks kristofpetho,

I see it clearly that EnableBePolite & SupportBePolite will turn down the volume as the phone is being picked up.

But where's this other feature where the phone will ring louder and louder if it's not being picked up while in the pocket (I think the G-sensor will sense the movement). The feature was there in TESS 4.2 (Sense 2.5).

I must say it's very hard to choose between TESS4.2 vs TESS Pride 1.

Small observation: battery drain goes up a tad bit in Build/Base 2.18.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] TheMelin:
in Comm Manager switch on the 3G connection.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
I myself use TESS Pride, as Sense 2.1 is snappier than 2.5. That accounts for 80%of my choice.

The other 20% comes from the following:

Sense 2.5 was made for Leo hardware, so no matter how great the chefs are, there will ALWAYS be some - even minute - bugs.

Since Sense 2.5 was made for the Leo, text size is smaller, and its even hard to read when I use my Topaz in the car - which I do a lot.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] emx_o:
I'm sorry, sounded like you'd like to enable these settings in the 2.5 ROM :)

Settings Problem

Hi, I have the same problem with the TESS pride as with the previous version (4.0). Immediately as I install Spb Mobile Shell 3.5.1. (I dont like TouchFlo), when I tap Start button, the icon "Settings" is not responding. Any suggestion how to fix it? In other roms I dont have this problem.

(I need it because I dont know why, but when I install Topaz key remaper, the icon for it is not visible through settings in mobile shell but only through the start menu and settings icon there).

Thank you. It is only problem I have with this excellent rom.

(In the Windows\start menu\programs\htc settings.lnk doesnt work. In the link there is " 32#\"Windows\LSCustApp.exe" Setting ")
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Hmm... When I tried SPB MS 3.5.1, I had no problems.

Did you Hard Reset after ROM install, and did you Soft Reset after SPB install?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] duongla:
When charging and in standby mode, this ROM shows charging status. That's why the screen is not turned off completely. Is there any way to disable charging status ? Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kasimir:
I have the same feeling! The rom is a bit lag than 2.17 drivers, I don't know why, but anyway it's a amazing rom!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] IndicaviA:
Sure thing. I do HR after every rom flash and SR several times during progs install. I dont know why it appears. As I said, I have no this problem with other ROMs (Nataly, X-Treme versions..). But I want to know why. Because I want to stay with TESS. This drives me crazy.

1) I flash the ROM, do HR after it. Everything is working ok. Tap the hardware key(or software key) "START BUTTON" and tap icon "Settings", everything is working.

2) I install SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.1. build 9687. Immediately after it when you press Start Button, the icon "Settings" is working no more. You can tap it but nothing happens. Everything else is fine.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] blasev:

EDIT: yeah thats because SPB shell disabled TFLO and that shortcut only works with Manila. so u have to enable the windows Settings shortcut in registry and delete the non working settings shortcut from programs folder.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] TheMelin:

Files to show in Photo Album tab in TD3Flo/Sense

Hi Aman/all,

Could you be kind enough to guide me on how to tweak the registry so that the Photo Album tab won't show all picture files, only certain some of them on certain DCIM directory folder (a pop up menu to choose, if even possible). This is because I have way too many pictures in my SD card, so I'd like to sort them out a little.

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] 100thMonkey:
does this ROM use the Topaz, Rhodium, or Leo canvas?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gianton:
Rhodium canvas on all TESS ROMs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] emx_o:
I got the conference button so I think its leo

edit:// that was wrong :D I forgot the differences, can anyone explain them once again?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
gianton is correct.

rhodium has both conference and video, but no curtain.

leo has video and curtain.

topaz has conference, no video, no curtain.

I think I remember them correctly.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gianton:
the other way around... ;)

Topaz PC with video call support

Leo PC with conference call

Rhodium PC has both but no curtain.

Battery

When I compare the battery life in 4.0 and in Pride its very markant to me. With Pride its enough to make about 20 min calls, surf a little on the net (only gprs, not wifi), several sms and the battery is at 36% after 8 hours. Base 2.17 was not so hungry. (I use the same .17 radio)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] donteo:
Master chef !aman! please check the Pride I rom stable fast wonderful rom but batttery life very short ... :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] blasev:
try to use different radio ver (eg :4.48.25.28), and see if that make a difference
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] IndicaviA:
I think now it is known that 2.18 has more battery consumption. Maybe the last official build 2.17 would be better. I think ljankok is also going back from 2.18 to cook cheetah with 2.17 again due to better battery drain. But I know I know, one thing is to speak and another thing is to cook. But it would be lovely to have Tess Pride with better battery life.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gianton:
I can confirm that battery drainage is not related to the radio. It's related to drivers from ROM base 2.18.

Same thing happens with TESS 4.2, I am on cheetah 0.3 atm which has drivers from ROM 2.17 and battery lasts at least 30% more.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] blasev:
that is strange

I actually have a better battery life with my tess 4.2, compared to tess 3.9 (which use 2.17 base)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] !Aman!:
i dont see any excessive battery drain here.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] emx_o:
hmm it appears to be a bit higher than with 4.0, in my case thats not very important, battery lasts for a complete day and then I recharge my phone anyway
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] IndicaviA:
Not excessive, but it wont hold for two days (except of case of stanby)

I was 100% at 7am. I had 1 minute call today, installed nothing, didnt play nothig, not surfing, just sent 10 sms and read 8 mails. Now is 17:46pm and I am at 45%. So its not so cool.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] !Aman!:
i meant, it is same as 2.16 or 2.17 for me.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] empeka:
i've been experiencing weird bug in tess 4.0, accidentaly i've discovered that one of two smses sent to me disappeared. no notification, no inbox entry.. nothing except for one thing - incomming message were loged in calendar by phonelog service.

at first i thought that it may be caused by tons of additional software installed, so i did hard reset. done some tests but still one of two smses was missing.

i decided to update to tess pride I. did a quick test - three messages sent and three received, so problem seemed to be solved. but today my friend called me complaining that i'm ignoring her. that pushed me to repeat test and it shows that:

*after receiving two smses in a row without reading them something gets stuck and no new messages will be handled

*if i keep sending messages reading them everytime i get one it's better but still one of three or four disappears

*sometimes when i click 'more' in manila message view no action is performed and it stays this way until soft reset

blaming installed software may be an option, but note that hard reset on tess 4.0 did not solve the problem, and software installed now shouldn't mess with messages in any way (resco explorer, cyberon voice commander, allreader, ezinput, g-alarm)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] !Aman!:
i get 25-30 SMSs everyday and normally when i get up in the morning there are 10+ unread messages which means they dont get stuck anywhere.

Yes, 2.18 consumes A TAD BIT more than 2.16/2.17

hi !Aman! my observation, too, that 2.18 consumes a BIT (slightly) more battery than 2.17/2.16. It's not the same.

however, your ROM is as always, fast and ULTRA stable. :D

Another 'Notes Sync' question / request :)

Is notes sync included in 'PRIDE' release? :confused:

Reading good opinions about PRIDE, but 'no notes sync' is absolutely unacceptable.

I think there are lot of people using notes on their D2, as they are the easeiest way to note something quickly, either on PC or on D2.

As you understand, it's too risky -- losing the important info and being 'out of date' if you forget to copy them to device from PC or vice-versa. :)
