yes, this is the only dutch rom here for rhodium, please continue
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] frank1975:
It would be a shame if the M-Rom stops here. Please go on!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] klooster:
Yes please continue with M-Rom. I've just flashed my tp2 for the first time with M-Rom v1.53 and so far it looks great :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
ok then....that's enough enthiousasm for me...:)

M-Rom will continue ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] elroy944:
thanks,

looking forward to the next rom :)

Well, if this is a kind of petition (NL: volksenquête, daar zijn wij goed in, hè), I would support Merten in becoming CEO of HTC. So please continue! We're not as good as you are!:D

Enjoy your holiday!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michielm:
Hello Merten,

I didn't wanted to give the idea of stopping... i prefer to let you continue to make it better and better... My phone can't be the problem in any way, since i flashed it over 25 times testing the different roms and versions, and didn't had any complete instable roms...

Anyway i reflashed the rom to find out more things... And i must say that the sense 2.5 is very fast! my compliments! Never had a speed like this. On the other hand the customization with the smaller icons on the portrait home screen is not what i prefer, in landscape the size is as normal.

Then also when pressing the Startmenu there are small icons, i also prefer them bigger.

The main reason i prefer bigger icons in both locations is that Sense is big on this phone... and the icons are then small... so not any logic proportional size... i understand the reason of smaller icons of being able to put more on it...

Then maybe it's just me... but i prefer the nice and clean WM6.5 default icons... or for example http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs48/f/2009/182/a/1/Icons_for_Windows_Mobile_6_5_by_zerode.jpg these icons. Are you able to make it something like this...?

Or can you make an CAB wich applies this after the basic ROM is installed...? Then there is more customization/choosing without the need to make more "rom releases".

Then i must give you an apologise for my "rude" message before that the rom hasn't been evolved since early releases.

Please continue to work on the TP2 the device is some how unique in it's kind... The main reason why i went back to the TP1 is because it's build more solid (physically), smaller to carry, flashlight wich i use often with TorchButton, then i also prefer the device so small since any person from a little distance isn't able to look on the screen and the TP2 is a bit too big in my opinion.

Anyway Merten keep up the work! As i said i reflashed my TP2 and will tell my findings when i'll use it the upcomming hours...

Greetz,

Michiel
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michielm:
Hello Merten,

Back again...

The first thing i found is that several times when i startup the phone it's hanging on Sense... or something else... Sense won't load... when i disable it on the Home settings... it's still not very fast... it seems that the phone is busy with something... can't find out what... When using a process manager it says nothing wrong... but the phone is SLOW as .... it's very bad... sometimes it the slowness is gone after 5 or 10 mins... or after rebooting... no logic in my oppinion... you have any clue...?

About the size of the icons in the startmenu, i found the .cpr files to be edited solving that...

Greetz,

Michiel
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] illyvdm:
Same thing here.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michielm:
Thanks... i couldn't believe it was my phone... ;)...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] elroy944:
i think it's an wm problem with this build. Tried AthineOs rom (needed an english rom for android) and it has the same problem. (Only latest windows live messenger does not work on that rom)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michielm:
Ahh... ok... then there is indeed a logic on this problem... ;)...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michielm:
Hello Merten,

I've found the folowing "problems" on the 1.53 rom...

CommManager problems

- CommManager wlan en bt not working (bt can only once be turned on)

- CommManager not able to run properly in landscape

Sense problems

- Sense is in horizontal mode not able switch nicely (when pressing the button to get the slice bar, it quickly disappears). This happens only the first time running it horizontal or after several times active.

- When opening the home tab on sense first the little animation plays, then the big. The small animation quickly repeats about 2 times.

- With sense on the home tab while animating the big weather, there is on the right just under the temperature a dissortion of the screen and that dissortion is a bar of 1mm in height and 20mm in length (only when the big animation is active)

- When sense on the home screen played the little animation, sense slides not that fast anymore for about a second (repeatingly) this is also the case when the animation played on the weather tab itself

- When opening the weather tab it quicky repeats 2 times playing the animation, then it animates till the end (only first time)

- The weather anymation keeps refreshing... A bit annoying since the animation slows the phone down

Other problems

- when pressing on the top right clock a taskmanager opens... Very very nice, though it's a bit less responsive as the task manager from wm6.1 that probably has something to do with the default windows wm65 bar with the icons too (don't know how this bar is called)

- When for example resco explorer is closed with the cross on the bottom (minimized) and with an other program active and while that program was active during the keyboard slicing the when closing the active program,resco pops up

- Booting is slow, but with Sense disabled it's faster (load will take between 3-8 mins before the phone is responsive), when Sense is enabled load is taking too much time to wait for.

Hope other people give their reactions on my list too.

Thanks in advance Merten!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] ThaDjKilla:
Here's some more.. ;P

You should be proud! you got the only Dutch rom for the TP2!

Every roms has good things and bad things, it can't be perfect!

I tried alot of your roms and it's only getting better and better!

So please continue ;)

Great, looking forward to your next rom! :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
Is fixed in v1.54!

Yes I also notice weather animation slows down the phone, but only temporarily. I would not know how to improve it...:(

yep, most things I've seen once or twice...but these are such small bugs I did not describe them in 1st post.

Thnx for the feedback!!

p.s.: I really do not have any freezes like you guys describe so that's something interresting...but then again I already use v1.54 beta rom with newest LEO packages and newesr Sense 2.5 build....
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michielm:
Hello Merten,

What about the version thing to be instable said by Elroy944...? And will the 1.54 build then be better than the 1.53...?

Then maybe a strange question... do you have any idea how many people are using/testing your rom...? Because then maybe some more people can give their output/input to make the rom better... After all this is the only dutch TP2 rom... so there should be more than 5 Dutch users or so...? Or am i wrong...? ;)...

I hope the 1.54 is more stable in performance... and can't wait for it...!

By the way Merten, what about my question of the cleanthing... icons etc...?

Greetz,

Michiel
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
Michiel,

To get small icons again in startmenu use my kitchen and in

KITCHEN\SYS\23529\dpi_192_resh_480_resv_800\0413\Base_Lang_0413_DPI_192_RESH_480_RESV_800

replace the two .cpr files by the ones attached.

To get the normal icon size in Manila/Sense home tab just disable EXT package 'Sense_16_shortcuts'

Cook and voila...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michielm:
The big icons i asume...? I wanted the original big icons... wich i already found on Googling... So that is good now...

I've done a reset on the phone watching when it happens again with the strange slow behavior... and somehow no logic the phone has been on with wifi for an hour or so... kinda surfing nothing special, then i restarted and there it happend again... slow... No logic...

About the Sense icons... they only affect the portrait Sense...? And about the landscape CommManager that is also a known thing...?

Greetz,

Michiel
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
Hi all,

I was just putting final hand on v1.54 with newest packages from LEO 2.07... When I just saw a new RHODIUM !!!! rom is released. Also 2.07 but with newest manila/sense 2.5.2012!!

Maybe more goodies (new oem stuff/drivers??).

But I will not be able to please you guys with those goodies as I leave on holiday tomorrow and will be away for more then a week.

So please be patient for some totally new stuff!!!

So you guys soon...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] michielm:
Have a very nice holiday! Are you leaving the winter for the winter or going to the sun...?

Can't wait for the new ROM then... ;)

So I can't also wait for the newest version of your ROM...

Peter
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
Well I'm back..running build 23541 already and newest LEO 2.09 packages...(LEO 2.10 will also be released soon :))

The only reason why I do not release yet is because I'm having a big fight with Manila/Sense 2.5.2012 :(

So keep focused on my thread because when I won the fight a new release will be there... :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lennyz1988:
Hello Merten,

First time i'm downloading you're rom :) It looks really nice!

I am going to test this rom and see if my dad can use it. He just got his touch pro 2 and he still got Windows 6.1 with Sense 2.1. Then he saw my rom with 6.5.3 and sense 2.5 and he wanted my version :P But he wanted a dutch version instead of an english ;)

So thank you very much for this rom and keep up the good work. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
ok all, your patience will be rewarded...after a long time and about a hundred flashes later I got it all sorted out.

M-rom v1.60 is done and has new OEM, new SYS/XIP and 95% new EXT.

also some new added goodies.

will go to sleep now but tomorrow I'll be finishing the kitchen and start uploading :)

so for now good night and i'll be back tomorrow (actually later today as it's 2 am...)

Hi Merten,

thanks for this new ROM. After being with NRGz's for a while, going to try yours again. Really like the Dutch language on my phone.

Already having some problems with the Manila TV Tab/streaming play of the video through Vodafone's network. Through WiFi it's working, but I believe that's a limitation of Vodafone.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] gacktyang:
how kind of try:cool:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
??? what do you mean?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandabeer:
great, I'm going to try this...:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] frank1975:
Hello Merten

Thanks for the great new version of your ROM.

One thing: In the original HTC ROM with manilla version 2.5 the twitter client works great in landscape mode. In your rom it doesn't. Can you tell me if there is a setting in the registry that can fix this problem?

beside that: You do great work!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
Frank,

That's a good question...I do not know...

Maybe someone else have a sollution?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] illyvdm:
giving this version of the NLD rom a new try, but having huge problems when typing dutch language. The autocorrection list always suggests english words, making it allmost impossible to type (using the touch screen).

"gaat" is changed to "Fastclick"

"van" is changed to "canon"

"je" is changed to " jeng"

"gek" is changed to "hemingway"

"de" is changed to " dell"

etc etc etc. It is allmost impossible to type dutch language when using a dutch rom. Am I the only dutchy with this problem?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] illyvdm:
one more thing: this rom is really buggy. again.

when i slide out my keyboard the whole screen goes weird.

cannot use this rom on a daily basis.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] frank1975:
The same here. I can only choose: Duits, Engels, Frans Italiaans and Spaans.

But: My Rom is not buggy like illyvdm says. For me this ROM is very stable and fast. I have only the dictionary and the 'Twitter landscape' issues.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] Lennyz1988:
Sorry but i can't stand this. You say this rom is buggy..What do you mean by buggy?! Be more specific instead of just screaming to get some attention.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] peter1706:
I don't have that problem. Works fine for me. Maybe a bad flash? Maybe you can try a hard reset or flash it again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
I agree...:(...It's so easy to just say something is bad.

I do not say my rom is perfect but that's the goal (if we can ever reach that point:rolleyes:)

So instead of just bloating some negative useless crap give me/us some usefull feedback which we can try to use for future releases or use my kitchen (and save yourself a lot of time gathering all the DUTCH ingredients yourself) and start cooking your own perfect dreamROM

Comments like yours drive people desperate and question theirselves if they should continue their work like I did a couple of weeks ago...

Why continue if people just do not like what you do...

So to wrap up: Give usefull feedback and help improve this rom or go to another rom and go complain there :mad:

That would probably solve his issue...but hey how hard is it to read and follow instructions ;)...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
looking into it...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] illyvdm:
Sorry for being short, but this M-Rom crashed on me 3 times in the 2 hours that i've used it. This happened only in landscape mode, but it was really easy to reproduce the crash. Just slide the keyboard in and out during normal work, it will crash soon. Dunno what is causing this, but i dont have the problem with other ROMS.

I have now installed the "official" HTC NLD 2.07 ROM with Sense 2.5, the typing of dutch words does work perfectly in that one. I expected this to be the case in your ROM too, since it's a NLD ROM.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
Found the error and will be fixed in next release...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] illyvdm:
can't wait to give it a serious try.

Will be away for a congress next week so wanted you guys to have my latest build for the time being...:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
WARNING v1.61 had a stupid error in it and gives the Wake-up-of-death bug which makes it useless!!!

v1.61_fixed is being uploaded as I type this so check if you got the FIXED version before flashing/using the kitchen....

sorry for the problem
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] frank1975:
Hi Merten,

Thanx for the new version. I downloaded the 1.61 version without the fix and had the error you wrote about. Now I want to download the new version, but the new link doesn't work. Do I have to be patience, or is something wrong with the link?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
New link is up for just a minute now, so I think you just were too fast ;)

Fixed kitchen will be upped now...so be patient for that one
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] illyvdm:
installed the 1.61 fixed version, dutch text input now works correctly, which is great news.

thanks for the fix!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
fixed kitchen also re-upped
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] illyvdm:
i've had my first crash today with 1.61.

It happened after an outgoing phone call. it seems like the dialer crashed the phone (last calls and dialpad are in the screen, but not responding to touchscreen keys and/or harware keys. The windows hardware button was still responding at that time, it showed the homescreenicons (spelletjes, accesoires, system tools, etc, but those do not respond. pressing the call hardware button bring me back in the (crashed?) dialer.

only a reset of the phone helped me out.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] illyvdm:
A reset did not even help me out, the phone lost ALL its settings. Going back to another ROM, cannot use this.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
Geee, I think you're device is faulty as you are the only one who is always complaining about the rom not being usable.

I repeat: I know my roms are not flawless and contain bugs and sometimes indeed major bugs.

But the problems you describe I never encountered.

I do not know your flashing methods and if you perform hard resets before and after (the customRUU does not delete everything like the original RUU does and therefore hardresets are reccomended!!!).

To wrap it up: If others have the same issues let me know so I can look into it but if N=1 please go to other ROMs and stay with those instead of trying all my new builds to just let me know how bad they are and how you can NOT use them. Or buy an Iphone ;)

sorry for the negative reaction but this is really starting to get on my nerves
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] peter1706:
No problems here!! No freezes. Works fine for me. Please keep up the good work. it's very much appriciated by me and many others. I love your ROM's
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] boemboem:
I'm not here to complain at you Merten, but would like to say that I was also having some major troubles (hangs etc) with your ROM.

However I just decided to go back to NRGz's ROM and follow you thread and try it again after some time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] frank1975:
Hello Merten,

M-Rom version 1.61 didn't work well at first install. After a hard reset it did and again it's a great rom. I hoped the landscape issue (Twitter doen's work well in landscape mode) would be over in 1.61, but it isn't. Do you know the solution for this problem?

thanks...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] merten3000:
I do not know what's causing the twitter landscape bug. Probably not worked out by HTC...

Will be releasing new v1.62 very soon :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development] frank1975:
The strange thing is that in the original version ( RUU_Rhodium_S2_HTC_NLD_2.07.404.1_Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.91_Signed_Ship.7z) twitter works correct in landscape mode.

When I now double click on customRUU.exe nothing happens on my PC or on the phone.

Thanks in advance for your help !!

I just restarted to flash the Rhodium again. Because all the other ROMs i installed in the Rhodium, i never had issues like this. All ROMs started to work instantly, so i didn't thought about reflashing or redownloading.

I'll keep my happenings posted.

It's working now after just a reflash... ;)... i notice some problems in the start menu with some icons and the translation. Besides that as far the last 10 minutes very speedy!!! ;)... I changed the theme directly, since i don't like the roundy buttons on the bottom... ;) Merten keep up the good work!!!
