I tried the rom and works smooth, nice rom. I have a problem with e-mail/exchange sync locking up/freezing pretty frequently. seems to be my only problem

Talking about Opera, did you get 9.7 to work with the hardware zoom bar. If so, could you point to the cab that you are using.

McBrian,

Were you ever able to get 2015 or 2016 messaging working? After I saw agents mention of it I tried giving it a shot and had no luck at all. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6843057&postcount=612
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] aznsniper:
whoops i missed something, it works fine until i apply any type of manilla mods on it, then it starts going crazy like sense doesn't open, sometimes freezes
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] aznsniper:
Yea Im having problems with it. 2016 will just freeze the phone entirely, for 2015 wen i go to messenging tab, it will just freeze for a while then work. However after i hard reset phone, install it without any messages its fast as. After i restore sms with my phone, then the problems start
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Hmmm....I only tried it very briefly, then I flashed a new/different rom. But it seemed like it was working...

This is what I installed:	HTCMessaging_Client_1_8_20152127_00(new all in one cab).zip

Maybe I'll try it again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rahlquist:
I found the answer to the problem I was having with it. The HD has a registry setting to enable a graphical send button, once I set that the buttons worked more like I am used to. The registry key is;

41. Enable Graphical Send Icon Button in HTC Messaging

To send a text message you need to hit the left softkey button. The following registry tweak adds a graphic send button above the paperclip button. It also changes the 'send' left soft key to a 'back' soft key.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\LSK_Send_Msg

Change from 1 to 0.

Are you using the 2015 or the 2016 version of that messaging client? I haven't bothered to read the source thread -- other than the first post with the downloads...so just wondering what the difference is...?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] rahlquist:
Not sure other than it showed up on the 12th and came from dutty. I'm running 2016 and it seems pretty nice, faster but I havent reloaded my sms messages yet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Thanks.

I'm going to flash back to 6.5.28233TR2.5 -- as a comfortable place to hang out until agent_47 releases a new-and-improved version.

So, after I'm back in that comfortable place I'll try that 2016 messaging client, with that reg-fix if necessary. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] agent_47:
i think ill leave extendir and see how it goes on 6.9

:eek::eek:

ill see what i can do.....

i still find this sms client slow :S

im not sure im gona cook it in
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
- Will 6.9 be new WM build(s)? Or fixes?

- Do you mean that you'll leave Extendir out or leave it in on 6.9?

Naturally, the best for users is a choice of ROM-flavors with/without every possible combination of add-ons...but understandably that's not the best for the Chef! :p

I tried installing the HTCMessaging 2016 (on 6.5.28233TR2.5) and it said "installation was unsuccessful" after running the .cab; I tried it twice, same thing. I installed 2015 using the same procedure, and it works :confused:

Oh, well...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] aznsniper:
I got the installation unsuccessful as well. then I installed 2015 first then installed 2016, then it worked however opening the sms client seemed to crash alot

I stayed with 2015, and I haven't had any crashes. I don't use SMS much...but so far so good.

Keyboard map

Hi,

Question on Keyboard mapping. I have a UK Vodafone TP2. Does anyone have a cab to map the keyboard and give me my "£" symbol back on the R key and the "€" back on the e key?

Just a slight inconvenience. Been living with it for ages. Just thought I would ask :D

Thank you
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] aznsniper:
just install Cookie 1.8 by cab and it will work:P
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Have you posted this question on the "TP2 General..." forum? I would guess that it's a characteristic of WWE-based roms in general and not just the Valky roms.

I had thought that it was only the USA-carrier TP2s (like my T-Mo USA) that had keyboard issues with the WWE versions...but apparently not.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] H5N1Duck:
Hadn't posted it. I will give it a go. Thank you MCbrian
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] agent_47:
i will look into the cookie issue and new builds :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jsparx:
Nope, still doesn't work. Changing wallpapers, or editing the cookie mod is impossible without this working.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Installing the Co0kie Home Tab (1.8) mod manually works for me, and others... (when I was running the 6.8 Valky rom)

Did you install the main Co0kie app or the Editor? Installing the Editor manually doesn't fix it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sumflipnol:
Agent posted a fix for the wallpaper:

As for editting Co0kie, you'll have to do it manually in the registry:

However, some people did say the manual installation of CHT1.8 via cab did work, so I don't know what's going on. I'm just living with my manual registry edits.:p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jsparx:
I ended up reinstalling Cookie Tabs altogether along with the editor - now it works. Not sure why it didn't originally from the rom, but all is well now

Slide closed keyboard reset

Hi, Not sure if this will help anyone. i had been suffering with the apparent bug that when you slide your keyboard shut it can cause the phone to turn off. Thought it was a ROM bug however....I have now got a new TP2, as the touch screen died completely. Installed Valkyrie 6.7 and I no longer have the phone off issue. I can only think that it must be hardware related and down to wear on the keyboard mechanism. (I have the same battery, back cover, sim and now ROM) only the phone was new.

Hope it helps anyone that was wondering if it were roms causing the issue.

Ta
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
I installed CHT 1.8.5 on top of 1.7.1 in 6.5.28233TR2.5.

The ability to scroll through upcoming calendar items on the Home screen -- rather than just pull that list down -- is cool/handy for me. Lots of other stuff that I'm not using yet, too. :)

HOWEVER: RAM is 65%-full immediately after soft-reset, which isn't so great (and that's without Extendir, on this 6.5 rom :( ), and it seems to grow sorta fast (though I haven't done a rigorous test of this). Wonder if it would be any better if built into ROM? I'd guess not, but IDK.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] GenEwic:
just wondering... how are you guys checking ram percentages? I've noticed after a day or so using 6.8.23569TR2.5 with cookie 1.8.0 got sluggish and says my ram is about 12MB free and about 60-ish MB free after a soft-reset.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
I usually check via the "System Info" app that comes with Resco Explorer, but it's the same data that you'd get via the standard Windows Mobile Task Manager, for example by clicking on the text clock in the upper right of the screen.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] GenEwic:
oh nice! didn't know about the top right one thanks! I also checked Resco since I have that app too. right now my phone is at 92% and is running really sluggish. I'm not sure whats eating it up right now
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Wow -- I've never seen it as high as 92%! :eek: If you do a long-press on the WM-Start icon in the bottom-left of the home screen it will bring up a different Task Manager -- a powerful one that shows resource-use by "process". Under the column called Mem Usage you'll likely find that "gwes.exe" grows huge in memory use -- over 40MB and maybe even 50MB if you see total RAM at 92%-full. It's like a giant cancerous tumor that consumes resources to the point of sickening the organism. ;)

I run "cleanRAM" whenever I notice that the Program Memory (aka "RAM") gets in the upper 70%, and I'd probably do a soft-reset if it was above 80% because even cleanRAM won't be able to clean out enough gobble-up memory to bring the free memory up to where the phone runs well.

Are you familiar with cleanRAM? Maybe not or you'd probably run it before/when your RAM-use gets that high. :) It's built into the ROM (on Valky roms and others) as well as downloadable from HTCAddicts. You'll find "cleanRAM Config" in the Utilities folder, and the icon that runs a cleaning session is in the main Start menu screen. I'd recommend setting config so that it runs at Level 3, with Exceptions

not

Enabled.

I've found that an older version/release of cleanRAM works better -- cleans more-thoroughly, or maybe is configurable in a different way -- than the more-recent ones. Maybe I'm imagining it :p ...but I don't think so. I replace the built-in versions of cleanRAM with the 1.96 versions of cleanRAM and cleanRAM Config by copying the exe files to the \windows folder of my phone. YMMV...but you might try it. To permit reversal of this replacement, be sure to find and copy the existing two clean-ram-related .exe files (before they're over-written) from the \windows folder to somewhere on your storage card so that they can be replaced if desired.

One other possibility (just asking) for the high RAM use is that you have apps minimized but not closed...but the Task Manager would show that.

More-likely, I think this suggests that Co0kie Home Tab (and/or Extendir ?) is doing something to bump up gwes.exe faster. IMHO ;)

just an observation, but i noticed that cookie loads audiomanager the moment u launch manila, taking up ram at the begining.....i havent tried it, but you can try and disable the music widget and see how it works out :)

uploading 6.9 without extendir + cookie 1.85

will do max sense soon just for the kick of it :)

6.9.23123TR2.5

Thank you, sir :) Got it and flashing now! Download was very fast...Sunday afternoon (my time zone) must be a good time for that. ;)

Update: Co0kie and its Editor work...I was even able to import my saved 1.8.5 settings from the 1.8.5 version I had installed manually on an older ROM. I haven't finished setting e-mail clients up, etc., so I don't know yet how RAM use will be. Will report later back.

Thanks again, agent_47. :)

Update 2: Hmmm.... I may have spoken too soon about the CHT Editor. It launches fine, and it imported my previously saved settings OK, but when I make a change and try to "Apply" the change it throws the error previously seen. :( I guess I'll try the registry route to change a couple of things...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] StefanB86:
Same problem in here :( i tried to install CHEditor with no results.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wagool:
This problem look like is from CHTEditor1.8.51 itself.

Because I tried Energy ROM with Co0kie 1.8.5 & CHTEditor v1.8.5.1 last night is the same problem!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] aznsniper:
might be a cooking problem. It worked when I installed them via cabs. Downloading 6.9 now

EDIT: Just install Cookie Tab 1.8.5 not the editor as a cab and the editor works fine
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wagool:
Thanks,I installed the Cookie Tab 1.8.5 over write again.It is fine now:D

Waitting for the new ROM with noCo0kie
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Yep, I did the same thing and it works...though, it kinda defeats the purpose of having Co0kie built into the ROM, doesn't it? ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] agent_47:
how is the ram holding up
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] nuwayman:
am i missing something here. been looking all up and down on the front page for 6.9 to download?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
I can't say yet...maybe somebody in a different time-zone can report.

I was busy on non-phone aspects of life for several hours, then my phone battery got too low to play with. Then I was messing around installing things to the phone that required soft-resets...then I decided that I need to do a hard-reset because I wanted to start fresh...:o...so re-installed CHT 1.8.5 (since that's the only way to get the Editor to work) and setting up other stuff...so I'm kinda back to where I was 6 hours ago. :p

...and now I have to sleep.

agent_47 puts stuff here before he posts the official XDA link: Valkyrie File Browser.

Note that there are files for the Xperia and Leo, as well as our Rhodium, so make sure you burrow down into the Rhodium folder.

Here's a link direct to the new ROM:

Can anyone comment on the speed of the new ROM? Let's say...compared to the v.6.8 ROMs.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
I hope you weren't asking me -- everything nowadays seems fast to me...until RAM gets too full ;)

Thanks to you!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] GenEwic:
thanks for the info. Yeah I've been using cleanram but it doesn't help much and i usually end up doing a soft-reset. I ended up wiping the phone clean and reflashing the phone to 6.8 with cookie 1.8.5 but should of checked back here for the new 6.9. oh well.. I'll probably try it out in the morning if I have time to redo everything.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
You might try the 1.96 version of cleanRAM -- configured as I suggested -- and see if it works better. It usually cleans out 15 - 18MB of RAM if I'm above 70%-full.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] GenEwic:
Thanks, I will try that out if I still get memory issues.

on another note.. does anyone notice any speed differences with or without Extendir?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] diezoo:
I recommend the last ROM Valkyrie_tp2_firestorm_v6.9.23123TR2.5 without Extendir, for me is faster than w/Extendir.

Fast and stable like a hell, beyond the CHT issue, the rest is a master piece!

Thank you very much Agent! :cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] sumflipnol:
I agree. It's faster than the v6.8.23569 I had.

My results after setting up my device:

With a Music Player Add-on in the Home Tab, RAM at boot was at 77%.:eek: Without any Music Player Add-on in the Home Tab, RAM at boot was at 63%. Two hours of playing with the ROM let the RAM creep up to 70%. The ROM is still fast at 70% RAM, so I guess it's safe to say that v6.9 is better than the v6.8 ROMs.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] babak:
oh yehhhh this one (v6.9) is to near the perfection guys :)

thank you very much :)

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jcm999:
This has been an issue on most Valkyrie ROMs since about version 6.2.x. It is not clear whether it is Windows Mobile caused or the ROM cook. Although I frequently try out new Valky ROMs I continue to go back to my standby, which is 6.2.23110TR2.5
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] aznsniper:
anyone feel that cookie 1.8.5 sometimes causes lag or sometimes manila doesn't respond for a few seconds like a freeze?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
Does this happen specifically when RAM-usage is high?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] wagool:
Me too:mad:

My question is the same.So I'm tring to disabled some programs(camera or the other prg not be used usually) to get more RAM
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] GenEwic:
I notice it after a soft-reset/boot it takes a while and sometimes looks like it freezes, but it takes a while to load. also near the end of the day or 3/4 of the day the phone slows down a bit, but only happens sometimes. I noticed it more after installing cookie 1.8.5 over the one that is cooked into 6.9. It was worse on the 6.8 rom with cht 1.8.0, but not as bad on the latest rom and cht. For the most part it runs smoothly, just once in a while it slows down for me (even without running other programs).

My memory now after a day's use is in the low 80%. the gwes.exe does take up a lot of ram usually at about 38MB.

one thing I have noticed today was that my display setting for dimming the screen always resets to 10 seconds to dim when on the battery. I usually put it to 30 seconds or 1 minute to give me enough time to read stuff. Each time I try to set the timer in the settings and exit out of the settings menu, the time will go back to 10 seconds. Also sometimes, I will get an incoming call but the screen won't display who is calling me with only vibration and no ringtone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] aznsniper:
I feel that since Cookie 1.8, there have been problems with sense not loading or taking ages to load. Cookie 1.7.1 worked extremely well, however since 1.8 lots of problems seems to have arisen. Might be because so much new features are bloating a phone with a slower processor compared to like a HD2 which is causing load times and sometimes short freezes.

also ram usage seems to have increased and doesn't seem very stable as well with high usage spikes. Cookie 1.8+ has been a great improvement however for our rhodium phones seems to be causes quite alot of problems
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Alcibiade:
Same feeling. I first thought it was Cookie and I just didnt want it anymore... And then you're right after trying 1.7.1 is ok
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
The same issue was posted a couple of weeks ago on an earlier Valky release, and it's cropped up in the past -- months ago. The posted fix is a registry tweak, given in Post# 7808. I haven't tried it, but the post following said it worked.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] jcm999:
The post that MCbrian referenced does work. This bug only seems to affect some phones with some ROMS. I have encountered it numerous times with various ROMS and the posted fix takes care of it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] GenEwic:
Thats what I'm also feeling. once 1.8 came out, the phone has been running a bit more sluggish and unstable. makes me want to try using spb shell or wait to see if agent releases different flavors.

Thanks, I tried it out and that fix works. I also tried using cleanram 1.9.6 and it does seem to clean well with the settings you suggested. It seems like it actually restarts sense and releases more ram. I can drop it to about mid 70% now with about low to mid 80% of ram usage after a couple hours of use.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] djkasmic:
what about the new 6.9 rom?? any issues?? or only the cookie-problem??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Alcibiade:
Some people in favor of going to a previous version of cookie ?

Honestly I was tempted to just get rid of cookie, but it seem it's only the 1.8.x versions that are too slow
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
I don't think I've noticed 1.8.5 being slower.... Maybe slower to re-launch Sense initially after a soft-reset -- which Co0kie Monster himself admitted to -- but I don't notice it being slower in regular use. I like Co0kie Home Tab

a lot

-- the way I like Sense 2.5 and WM6.5.5 -- and I don't think I'd like to give up the CHT features (unless replaced by something with similar/better features). I could go back to a previous version, though, if convinced that 1.8.5 was problematic.

On a positive note: I think ...perhaps...that memory-use is growing more-slowly, in this 6.9 release. It gets above 70%-full pretty quickly, but grows slower past that point. If my impression is accurate, I wonder if this has anything to do with the absence of Extendir?

In the real world I do research for a living (in a field completely unrelated to software or electronics), and I hate to state conclusions without the evidence of a controlled experiment :p (like the video-comparison of Sense-scrolling speed I did some time ago) ...nevertheless, this is my impression of performance. :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] MCbrian:
OK...now I've experienced something funny (and not in an amusing way) with CHT 1.8.5.

I changed the clock "level" to small-digital-with-weather, and I added Tasks to the Home screen. Twice now after making that change this morning, while scrolling through Appointments and/or Tasks on the home screen, Sense re-launched itself. That is, it shut down Sense and then re-launched Sense (not a soft-reset of the phone). And I don't think it was due to low memory as RAM was less than 70%. :confused:

(BTW: By "scrolling" I'm referring to the new CHT feature that permits scrolling of the list of entries within the Appointment or Task section of the Home screen.)

Anybody else see this bug/phenomenon?

Other than this, I've had no issues -- everything else is good!
