[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] RebeL5K:
Running 84002 with Manila 2.5

Thanks for all your work on these ROMS Player 911, it's nice to be able to test out new products so soon after they're developed and to have a chef as responsive as yourself.

I'm sure you've been busy and it seems like you're running the Manila-free build so I just wanted to do quick rundown of the issues I have encountered so far running your latest build of 84002 with Manila 2.5 over the past 16 hours or so. Most of the bugs I have encountered are within the Manila/Sense interface, but then again I haven't really interacted with the core WM components. This is the first ROM i have ever flashed, running on a week old Pure.

1) Occasionally the default city seems to "get lost" for the weather interface and reverts to simply saying "My Location", instead of "Tampa", as it did originally upon setup. This seems to correct itself if you go to the weather tab and manually update.

2) *** The text messaging from within the HTC app does not work, at all. I have found that if I assign a contact to SMS with one of the Quick Launch buttons it will open a new message within the HTC Messaging app and I am able to compose the message and send it fine. However, if I try to reply to a message from the Messaging Tab within Sense/Manila or even from the Messaging app, it pulls up the screen with text box to write but it is unusable. It's almost as if as soon as you type a character it deletes and the screen flashes briefly to the underlying Windows wallpaper, but I am unable to enter any text. While this is happening, the keyboard icon at the bottom flashes.

3) Upon initial setup, I was unable to setup access to my YouTube account, it gave me some form of connection error.

4) The Twitter tab within Manila, even though I was able to set it up correctly initially, does not auto update. I found if I click the small manual update icon under the Update box it will update, but it does not auto-update after that. Also, pressing on the Update box does nothing so it is not possible to update status from the tab. Pressing on the Menu key at the bottom of the tab does nothing also.

5) The album tab seems to work ok but if the pictures are supposed to auto rotate with the g-sensor, they don't. Also, the links to the camera from this tab do not work, nor does holding down the Send key, it simply gives the error "The File " cannot be opened..." There does not seem to be a camera app anywhere, either, so as of right now the camera seems to be non-operational.

6) Internet tab does not really work. Clicking on "Launch Browser" flashes the word "opera" at the top, a gray empty splash screen comes up, but the browser does not load.

7) About half of the major categories under the Settings tab do not work, they give the error "The file 'SettingImprovement' cannot be opened...'" Most of these options seem to be encompassed in and work under the 'Other' section in the Settings tab.

8) Various apps do not work, such as the "Peep", etc.

I'm still playing with it, but those seem to be the major issues I have encountered with it so far. For whoever asked, I've had it unplugged, from a full charge, for about 12 hours, running Activesync with my Google account for email, calendar and contacts, and the battery life is at 74%, with light-moderate usage.

I hope it is not poor etiquette to compile such a list of errors found, if it is I apologize for my rudeness. Please do not take it as lack of gratitude, I am, again, very grateful for your efforts and for your time. Have a great Thanksgiving!
