Basic Review

It been awhile since I have flashed a NhatHoa rom and I can say that this one (6.5.3.11.0) is much improved.

Battery life is much better. I am down to 69%. I have not turned on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi at this point though. I have had this on my phone for about 3 to 4 hours.

My Location refuses to update but I added my city as an additional location and it updated fine.

Sync with my Exchange Server is rock solid.

Over all the system is quick and responsive.

Wi-Fi - I connected to my security enabled wireless network in about 30 second including the configuration process. Switching Wi-Fi from off to on will connect in about 5 seconds. So I would say that Wi-Fi is working great!

Wi-Fi is a real energy consumer. In about 30 minutes battery life is down about 10%. It is rare that I would be in a situation where I would need to depend on Wi-Fi.

I can't find my Bluetooth ear piece but I am certain it would great as posted above.

Voice Recorder works great as I recorded my two year old talking.

Scrolling through my videos and pictures is totally smooth.

Video playback totally responsive and smooth.

View pictures is totally responsive and smooth.

Call quality is clear.

SMS quick and no delay when viewing a conversation and click to input a reply. This always results in a delay with EnergyRom.

At the moment I am listening to Pandora (found an old cab file on XDA) over my Wi-Fi and the sound quality is great through the phone's speakers.

Conclusion:

This is a great ROM that competes if not best any of the ROMs out there especially when it comes to performance. I wish this ROM had the visual appeal of Shadowline ROMs but then I guess there would be a performance hit. Max Manila 2.7 on this ROM does a lot to make up the difference though.

I am giving 6.5.3.11.0 a 9 out of 10 stars.

Hi, I should have said: take the battery out for about 2 seconds and then put it back in and try to start the phone.

Yesterday my phone (on another ROM) just died in the middle of a call and I thought the battery had drained so I plugged it in to the wall and it would not charge or do anything. I tried to turn it on and nothing. I took the battery out and put it back in and everything was back to normal and the phone turned on without a problem.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rspillo:
Your HardSPL is 1.83 Olinex?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] criszz:
rom is great but no windows games, only teeter
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pauloafe:
yes it is. if i try the hard reset i found a 3 color screen and this information.

i have try to remove the battery a lot of times. and the problem remains the same.

when i do the hard reset the information of the rom - Nathoa-Rom remains.

:(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rspillo:
Ok, HSPL 1.83 Olinex.

If the Topaz go in bootloader you can try flash another ROM.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pauloafe:
ok. when i try press the 2 voluem buttons and the next power. i found the 3 color screen , release the buttons and connect the usb?! (thats right)

but pc dont recognize the phone...

:(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Starwalker:
With older devices (I don´t know, if it is working on the Topaz too), the device sometimes comes back, if you pulled out the battery for a few hours.

You can try the following:

-Put the device in the bootloader mode (hold only volume down and hit the reset button)

-Three colour screen appears

-Connect it to your PC (don´t worry, if the PC doesn´t show a connection) and flash the rom again (start Topaz RUU Wrapper and follow the instructions - it will recognize your device) or flash another rom or the stock rom first.

-And make sure, you install Olinex HardSPL 1.83 first!

Cheers

Lars
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pauloafe:
sorry its SPL - 1.33 Olinex.

and i cant do another flash because i cant use the pc with it.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pauloafe:
hi.

what is RRU wrapper?!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] pauloafe:
sorry. i resolve the problem. thanks and sorry. im doing the update again with the rom, if i cant i will try flash another one.

Hi. Happy new year to all.

I have been trying to download Version 6.5.11.0 for the last hour but isnt going anywhere with rapidshare. (no slots and apparently really busy)

can someone please prvide me with another link to download.

please..........thank u.

Just tried 6.5.3.11, so far everything is great. Didn't see any battery improvement though.

Thanks NhatHoa for the stock taskbar icons.. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rumz82:
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE QUICK REPLY!! YOUR A STAR!!:D

Just flashing it. hope its great. I hope battery drain will not be an issue. also, may i be a bit cheeky and ask a quick question.:o

The ONLY reason why i like to flash old windows build roms is because i always install "touch response" as a must have app coz i love haptic feedback. But the problem is that the only way to accept changes and configs in the app is my clicking on the "ok" button on the top right of the screen. But the new builds all come with the taskbar on the bottom. so there is really no "accept changes" button. i hope u understand what i mean. So do u or any of the other geniuses here know of a new app that will give haptic feedback? Sorry for the question and thank you in advance.:D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
Hi, lightiv

Thanks so much for your support.

To enable My Location in wheather tab, press menu in wheather tab, you will see Enable My Location
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] zard:
Alright, 6.5.3.11 is as superb as earlier builds, just that the new manila is causing some problems on stability, nothing to do with your cooked rom. Still, it is still more stable when compared to rom with same manila in the Rhodium forum.

The latest Manila 2.5 is not compatible to smartlock 2.0A. I just downloaded 2.0D, not sure if that will be more compatible. In case any of you guys wonder why Manila is not showing or sometimes hanging, it is smartlock 2.0A.

nhathoa, I suspect you still have not upgraded to Ameba 0.6b in your rom. Hope you will add that in when the 28205 is out. The position fix in this new version corrects at least the Resco Explorer position.

Looking forward to your 28205 build with the latest Manila 2.5.

Thank you.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Starwalker:
A bit OT, but does anyone know, how to create a shortcut for the HTC Contacts application?

Thanks in advance

That's a copy of it (it's from TESS Leo II):
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Starwalker:
Thanks a lot :)! Working great!!

Cheers Lars
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] bsw11:
6.5.3.11 is working great! 3 questions:

1 - the position fix in resco explorer is not totally tweaked - it still needs around 3 or 4 more pixels to be perfect - is there a way to change the registry for that.

I did install Ameba which fixed that, but made it flash prob due to both working at once - can I disable the one installed now and use the new one?

2 - Is there a cab for the task bar icons from .9 - i like those icons

3 - can the upper taskbar be made larger without causing issues?

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] miro666:
Im playing couple hours with 6.5.11.0 version, and i can say exellent work NhatHoa !!! All went very well...Interesting is it,by me not much battery draining, because some people saying Drivers package v2.18 drained battery too much in many (others cheefs) ROMs.

Keep good work and happy New Year

Regards
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
See in the attachment in the first post to get the taskbar icon.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] rumz82:
Hi all.

Ok, been playing round with Version 6.5.11.0 for a bit(well, since this morning;)) and so far so good. Not sure but i think there may be a small bug with messages or the keyboard. not 100% sure yet, may be its just me!:D

Thank you nhathoa for the rom and i really appriciate your time and effort u put in to cooking. well done!!:D If i have any probs or issues, i'll let u know!! take care

Battery Life

I love Nhathoas ROMs. They are always just about the most stable you will find. He puts in just the right amount of apps, and nice personalization touches. However, I am forced to venture away and try some other ROMs. I have tried several radios, but I still cannot manage close to a full day of battery life, and I am far from a power user with my phone. I do a few calls, a few txts, and a little web surfing. Ive been using the ROMs for several builds and this is the only thing each one lacks. So I begin my search.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kaycee77:
Try changing your Radio again. i will suggest not to use 4.49s Radio, they are the battery drainer. thats what i did since i had my TD2. tried lots of ROM but battery wont even last me a day. Since i changed my Radio to 4.48.25.20, it can last now for 3 days standby without recharging.

Hope this helps
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
Aha... great sharing experience. Thanks so much.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
agree that 4.48.25.20 is most stable overall.

but for gps and data, 4.49.25.17 is better. dunno how to explain, but based on experience.

also, turning off 3G always helps. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kaycee77:
GPS and Data varies anyways. Depends where you are. Depends on signal strength. and of course turning off 3G will save you battery life obviously coz it uses to much power. But if you not really picky about your data and gps signal, and wanted a longer lasting battery life, dont use 4.49s. U need your phone to stanby on you and use it when you need it, not to drain it as quick as you can.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kaycee77:
Anytime Nhathoa. the least i can do compared to you guys who cooks our ROM... appreciate all your work.... all the praises regarding this excellent ROM of yours is all to you.

Happy New Year
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] triblax:
Version 6.5.10.0 on MDA Compact 5

Hello everybody, I have this version, I love it...

But from new year "SMS crazy day" I have trouble with sending and delivering SMS. When I sending or receiving more SMS ("in same time") phone is extremly slow, and often lag and no more SMS was sent and received before I restart phone. Somebody with same problem?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] darkblue68:
very greta Rom Nathoa!

But ne1 has the sms time stamp problem?

When i send a sms at 20h, the reply time tamp is 21:01 (and not 20:01)...

Why?

I've my location enabled.

Because of this bug, all the conversation modeis messed up!

Thanks a lot

And Happy new year to all
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
yea, I said for 'both data and gps' since I know they differ.

and I also said 'based on my own experience'. :)

over at the radio thread nobody dares to answer as yet, which on consumes more battery: (1)sticking until -105dbm signal strength, OR (2)agile switching for best reception.

..so no clear cut answer till this day. funny thing is, HTC never put up technical log on their radio rom releases.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
disable my location and make sure your local time is set correctly.

but I am sure, it's the my location that causes you this.

unless you're a globe-throttling type who keeps switching time zone 10 times in a week, it'd be best to switch off/ disable my location, IMHO.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] miro666:
And our senior member komsa confirms radio 4.48.xxx is better for battery life from 4.49.xxx :

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=5041745&postcount=491

but like say BumAround, depent too signal condition, ROM driver package, and maybe more things....

Regards
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] darkblue68:
I agree with you but my location is great for htc weather....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
mon ami, you can still update htc weather without having to enable My Location. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harddisk_ripper:
Great rom, didnt have any problems, except of the buggy HTC messaging... But thats normal I guess :p

Only one minor thing: On some screens (dialer, some settings pages) the position fix for the new taskbar and startbar isn't aligned properly. :o

Thank you for your work :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
I'd say: just try it and experience it yourself because too many variables involve here. A post from senior member is not a god-given postulate. :)

it's funny why HTC never bother to post technical log on their radio rom releases.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
To confuse you more, another senior member (BeeGee_Tokyo) is very happy with the latest 4.49.25.57 Radio.

As written above, it depends on the ROM. You have to try which Radio ROM is best for your Custom ROM. It depends as well on your location.

I have very good battery times in Japan, Korea, China and Philippines and a small problem in Germany. Over Christmas (in Germany, France & Netherlands) I had to charge my Topaz every day.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gomo187:
Thank you, I do appreciate the advice. The radio you mentioned above is actually the radio I had already settled upon. This radio (4.48.25.20) was the radio my HTC Pure came with. I have tried about 6 different radios for about 3 days each. But have found even worse results from the other radios. But my battery life is still pretty terrible. Its not a big deal to have to charge my phone in the car, its just with other ROMs I had used previously at the end of the night I still had just under 50% battery life.

Now if I take my phone off the charger at 6:30 AM, the battery is cooked by 5:00 PM and I have to charge again.

Thanks for everything. If I cannot find any good ROMs I will likely be back to Nhathoas stable ROMs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] JHonDr:
Great rom, batterie in Holland with normal conversations and sync every 2 hours is more than a day. How much more... i don't know, i charge every night. No bugs found and in .3 version it's possible to send mail with send button.

Thanks,
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] EgorLev:
I have tried almost every last roms and can say that 6.5.3.11 is the best in terms of battery life so far. What I can also suggest is some tips in flashing process. Before flashing a new rom you should fully charge your battery to the green light. Then hard reset, then wait for the green light and flash a new rom. After flash, another hard reset. Then you get a stable rom and get maximum of your battery. You should also do a few full circuses of charge and discharge before battery meter starts to show actual battery status during discharge. Also you can disable “Receive all incoming beams” in Connection settings.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gomo187:
Thanks for your advice, but I have been flashing for several years now through 3 different HTC devices. I have never had any battery issues before. With this phone I have no trouble running the battery completely out, it has done it several times on its own. Also I have not had the same battery issues using a few other ROMs. I prefer Nhathoas ROMs to all of those, however I do not get the same battery life. Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Starwalker:
Hi NhatHoa,

I´m actually testing your "Daily Rom" and it is a really nice one :)! The cooked in Opera 10 is working very well, it is stable as a rock, the new Manila feels really fast and smooth, it is good looking and the battery drain seems less than in 6.5.11.0.

Love it!

Thanks and cheers

problem after installing seven push

hi,

do anyone faced problem with manila after installing Seven push mail solution.

in my case manila freeze and i'm not able to see any manila pages :mad:.

thanks for your answers and the great job provided by our cookers :).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] aussie1234:
Great!

Hi NhatHoa

I am using one of your roms but I can't seem to find an update for it. I don't know whether you have or are cooking different versions.

I have the OS Version 28014.5.5.0, Manila 2.5.19214010.0, ROM date 22-12-2009.

It has the new Leo 2.02 and has the 5 Quicklinks on the home screen. From memory you labelled this as a test ROM.

This ROM is working very well for me. People links sometimes go white but a 'remove link' then 'add link' fixes that.

SMS'g can be a little slow (screen doesn't keep up with typing especially the spacebar resulting in words combining without spaces). Apart from these this is a great ROM.

Have you or will you update this one? I can't tell as your screen shots show ROMS with the 3 quicklinks on home tab.

Thanks

Aussie :)

Just flashed ROM 6.5.3.11.0. Works great. Many thanks. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] salvi1379:
hello nhathoa i think your ROM is simply fantastic, i found only a bug with the landscape tweak, it works but music, pictures and docs tabs, that normally if you rotate the device show the carosell seem to crash or better, produce a strange effect, im using Version 6.5.3.11.0 can you help me ? thank you very much
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
When you are in music/photo/document tab, and you spin your topaz, the manila will be crash. This is the exist bug of the newest HTC Sense, only HTC can fix this. Just wait... for the new version.

And more, the music/photo/document tab will show correct in landscape if you move to them when you are in other tabs. :)

How Can I disable HTC messaging??My ROM version is6.5.3.11!!!!Thx for your great ROM!!!

Does the speaker control keeps going back to 50 % in the latest version? That's been very annoying.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] da900:
Hi, NhatHoa. I'm just downloading your ROMs in the head above. Still don't know what to flash on my Topaz. But I think I will stop on 6.5.11.0... And I have one question for you: do you make ROMs only in WWE? And can you (maybe) make ROM in other language (in russian for example)?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] TheAgent1982:
Your ROM works great!

I really like your ROM, but after I try to install Arabizer for Right to Left help, and localization, Your ROM works VERY SLOWLY and the Manila STUCK on LAUNCH without finish LOADING :)

This localisation, it is really important to me...

I am talking about version 6.5.11.0 and 6.5.3.11.0

To anyone:

Any Idea how to fix it?

p.s. i have try another ROMS here , and it does not append like that behaviour...

Thanks in advance!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
Of course, i can cook topaz rom with Russian. But I don't know any words of Russian, so it will hard for me to correct the russian interfact. :D

Could you please share your Arabizer for Right to Left help and localization, I will check and tell you the solution. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
To ab4nk and guys,

I know that many members of this forum want to be a chef, this is my opinon:

- First of all, you must learn the construction of a Rom.

- What is the kitchen? Which kitchen should you can use?

- How to use a kitchen?

- How to port new core, new apps, new...?

...

All of answer, you can search in this great forum.

Well, about kitchen, you can use the public kitchen of mondilv, this is the best kitchen.

To use the kitchen you can learn HERE and many thing great are HERE

Sorry, I can't write all steps of cooking Rom, because it has many many things to say and the experience is the most important. But any question about cooking Rom is welcome with my poor English. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] topesto:
First of all this is a great ROM, thanks go to Chef.

The only thing which isn't working for me is the Internet sharing even using USB cable. Any idea what can be an issue here?

Thank you.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
Hi,

I did test Internet sharing via USB Cable with 6.5.3.11.0 version, and it works fine, did you check your Data conection?

See the pics in attatchment.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Riekr:
i'm using internet sharing throug usb just to post this answer :D

When internet sharing starts be also sure to select the correct data connection in the selection box.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] da900:
Nhathoa.

:)... I understand. Thanx for answering... I have seen somewhere in the web new built of WM 28205, but they say that there's a problem with native topaz canvas in it. Is there any patches to correct it? And are you going to make this ROM?:rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
They still have no solution to fix 28205 bug. And I planning with COM5 build 23518 :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] tony81:
Hi NhatHoa,

when you release your new ROM?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Riekr:
what's new with com5 builds? :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] janissl:
Hi Nhathoa,

Almost everything works great except one thing. I experienced a bug with the phone's alarm. The phone switches an alarm each day at 2:39 PM (i.e. all the two days I have your ROM installed). I have not set the alarm for this time (only to 6 AM on weekdays) but it still rings and I am not able to switch it off normally (there is no such alarm for this time in the Alarm Clock window). Can it be related with your ROM (6.5.3.11.0) (I mean fixed by you) or is it perhaps a MS bug?

One more idea... When I backed up my phone content using Sprite Backup Manager there probably was an alarm set for this time. Before I found your ROM I tried to find a solution for the phone's alarm because it did work properly on the official HTC ROM upgrade and tested the alarm at various conditions by setting the alarm one minute ahead (this may explain such a strange alarm time). What do you think?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] TheAgent1982:
Yes, i will PM it to you...

Thanx!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ab4nk:
how about 23616 ?

"They still have no solution to fix 28205 bug. And I planning with COM5 build 23518"

Dear nhathoa, how about 23616 ? its newest i think. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nhathoa:
Core 23616 is the old core :).

More, i will upload new ver base on 6.5.3.11.0 with core 23518. :)
