how did u do clock and battery icons together on task bar?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tafo:
guys?! on rapid share its stated when donloading .. ver 1.6 ?!?? and when using sendspace it not downloadable.. error in link?? so rapidshare is 1.6 or 1.7???? thnk u
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
I've fixed the Sh3lby_1.7_M25_WWE.7z RS link.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tafo:
man rapid share was fixed ! but the send space still erorr!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] millski:
Hey smokku, have you updated the touch input packages for 1.7? I've just flashed MaryOne x0.05 to play with before trying some others including Sh3lby 1.7 and it uses touch input 2.1 1920.3826. It has the big cursor keys and I have to say I prefer it :/ Have been searching everywhere for the oem but can't find anything newer than 1917xxxx...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
And SendSpace too.

Sorry for the mess - I was in a hurry.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
Nope. I prefer the one with pop-up cursor keys. It takes less screen estate.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] finnak:
hey,nice to see next version. I love your ROM!!

Do you plan version without HTC messaging?

I have more than 800 sms & my HD is very slow.

thanx very much.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] moforlyf:
This is a really Kick-ass rom!

am just having a minor problem with my location in manila, it doesnt seem to update at all. it keeps giving the connection error no matter what. even with wifi turned on, data on, etc

Could someone help me out?

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
The previous one wasn't very popular. 1/20 of downloads comparing to the HTC Messaging one.

New HTC Messaging is reasonably fast. But I could make a ver without if you really want to. :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MaXyM:
if is realy fast and has threading working as expected... I will not push you to remove it. But to be honest I don't belive in mirracles. ;p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] finnak:
hey Smokku,thanx a lot.

My question is,if my phone will be fast with HTC messaging like without it.

I have many sms & don't want to delete them.

And my last question is,what about HTC task manager?

sorry for my english
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
Could you please try the ver with HTC Messaging?

If it is really slow I will build one without.

I will not include HTC Task Manager. You may install it yourself. XDA UC could make it unnoticable. :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] finnak:
Ok, I´ll try it. I believe, it will be O.K.

Thanx for yout work :)

If you use PIMBackup to restore data, do a Soft Reset after finish. Without the device is very sluggish after the restore.

After dawnload file name is Sh3lby_1.7_M25_WWE.7z. What have to do, file extension isntn nbh or zip ????????????????
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
It worked for me too now after phone reboot.

Its not PC-related, there has bee nbig problems with earlier com4/5 builds.

Still, how do i disable password so can use Android?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] moforlyf:
Use freeware program called "WINRAR" this well enable you to xtract the contents of the file.

Don't be so harsh. LZMA is relatively new. :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dark Ninja:
lmao what password are you talking about?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
On the Settings tab select Menu -> All Settings and you will get to the windows settings, you should be familiar with. :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dark Ninja:
smokku, im having a problem with my location, it doesnt seem to work? any suggestions? is anyone else having this issue?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
The security pin. :D

Smokku, i know, but I cant find it in the windows menu, its like i never used this phone before. :o
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
Settings tab -> Wireless controls -> Phone -> PIN code
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
To be honest, I have a .reg to disable "My Location" in XDA_UC :D

So I have no idea.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dark Ninja:
does that mean you dont have weather on the home tab? or is there a way of getting normal weather from weather tab to the home tab? if so could you sort me out with it? thanks..

if not then i guess il look into it more
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tafo:
really thanks for ur efforts smokku .. u did a great job:) u a great helper and making a fast rom .. minimal bugs .. can be used on daily bases:) thanks again:D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
Oh I sure have. Just look at the screenshot in first post. :p

Just go to Home tab, tap the clock (the big white one), then tap "+ Add City" enter your city name and tap it to select it active.

You may also go "Menu -> Remove Cities" to delete unneeded ones.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MaXyM:
As I have read, my location is updated automatically. It works almost often using WiFi. With other methods (like GPRS) depends on radios.

Lokks like update 'My Location' using ActiveSync doesn't work - but it is quick info using google.

Good you said 'realtively' :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dark Ninja:
Hahah thanks for that im using that for now, My location will prbably consume data charges anyway.

I have noticed a slight change in delay in HTC messaging, it seems to load quicker and also when u tap to compose the text before it would lag alot, its cut down now.

manila sms dosen´t work .. click on manila sms do noting ... its useless ...

no task manager

many thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MaXyM:
I cannot sleep due to that 'my location' issue.

Looks like it is developed/proposed by google and used in Google maps. Then used in other applications (like TouchFlo/Manilla).

My Location is 'guessed' based on CellID data of GSM network or WiFi. I don't know how it works for Wi-Fi. If would base on IP mapping, than should also work with ActiveSync. But it doesn;t.

Indeed, weather's My Location synchronization works with Wi-Fi. But it doesn't work with GSM/GPRS. It may be due to GSM network configuration or some bug in current versions of hacked WM6.5.

Finally I've checked GoogleMaps connected via ActiveSync. Guess what? GoogleMaps has been able to detect my location.

Conclusion is: that must be something wrong with manilla. It is able to detect my location using only Wi-Fi, when other apps like GoogleMaps can do that with various connections.

It's my guess of course. however it is not only Sh3lby rom issue. I'm on testing Energy rom also, noticing the same issue.

best regards.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] powerdete:
tested since yesterday. no major bugs so far. very good work.

thanks alot smokku
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
What I dont like about this ROM so far is that there is no way for me to add the old Windows Taskmanager to the quicklinks, i have to go through the startmenue. Dont know why that is.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] xD9:
Great work! A major problem (at least for me) is that there is not any sound alert for sms.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] DoofDoof13:
nizzon, I felt your pain! The reason behind this is that there is no shortcut in the start menu. What i did is make a shortcut via file explorer (copied taskmgr from the windows folder) and pasted it under windows\startmenu\programs, using file explorer. Then i was able to add it to the manila quick links on the home page :-D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] michedenhaag:
you probably changed manila language. change it back to WWE and your sms will buzz and make noise as before!

Sh3lby 1.7 Manila 2.5 WWE, i flash 100%, reboot after, but Constant auto reboot, can't go to window:(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] farqui:
I've just come from Dutty's HG R0 and find Sh3lby 1.7 is a slick replacement - well done.

Q1: Using 23509 + M2.5 1921 - which customised taskbar have you found to replace the bland OEM item ? I've just tried my favourite "M6 Taskbar WM65 (v11)" and it messed up the "new" Start Menu buttons (at the bottom of the screen).

*update: found a more recent M6 taskbar compatible with WM6.5.1 :)

Q2: I've also found the Windows "HTC Black" theme has thin scrollbars and no arrows and is missing some text (Windows, Settings, Today, Title bar). Does anyone have one that works ? - I have that's slightly better but it's not perfect.

*update: thanks Dusk Theme works a treat
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Pandemoniumone:
Try the Dusk theme this is the best one out in my opinion.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Cpt-Future:
Hi!

As I said earlier I am really impressed by this chefs qualities in ROM cooking!

The Sh3lby-ROM is truly the best deal when it comes to an overall view. However, I wanna ask for the following optimizations:

1. Please try to use the new core 28002+ (http://www.ce4arab.com/vb7/showthread.php?p=1383752)

2. The two touch buttons on the bottom of the screen are not that useful as it leads to "Phone" (remember we already have a softbutton for "Phone" on the blackstone) and to "Menu" which means nothing much more then "settings". Could you exchange this Buttons? I would like to see a "Contacts"-Button and a "Camera"-Button for example.

3. Is it possible to add a 3rd touch button between "Phone" and "Menu". There seems to be enough space and an additional button would be nice (for example a calender-Button)...

4. It would be great if the Quick-Start-Buttons of Sense/Manila could be raised from 3 to 4 or maybe 6 icons. Is this possible? I like one click access to the apps I use...

5. I would like to see a decreased clock size in Sense/Manila home screen since it takes the more important calender size.

Thats all for now. Keep up the good Sh3lby work. Im waiting for updates nearly every day! :-)

Thanks,

Future
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
1. What is the advantage of COM8 build? From what I read there are problems with waking up device with this build.

2, 3. Hardcodded into Manila. Can't change.

4, 5. Just install proper CAB. XDA UC will make it automatic and unnoticable.

Outlook Cleared on Reset

I have scanned/searched the posts and cannot see this issue raised on this thread, which means this is probably a dumb question.... But, When I do a reset or power off/on on this ROM, my Outlook settings are cleared for the items I want to sync, like email, contacts, tasks etc. Also Data, Microsoft Direct Push are off in the Comms Manager, not as I previously had them set. Therefore my mails and contacts are cleared (because the items are not ticked in the Outlook settings). Once I tick the Outlook settings boxes and resync it all comes back...but a minor pain.

Any answers out there, to keep them boxes ticked???

Great rom though. I have the IPC black dialler installed with the Dusk Task Bar...neat.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MaXyM:
Question to all that have disabled HTC messaging in this build.

Do you get SMS delivery confirmation?

Is the setting in Mobile Outlook available or you have to use some tweaking program.

regards
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] nizzon:
More bugs...

File Explorer works like ****.

Tree-view is really strange and it hangs the app, ony way to get out from it is to end the process with Task Manager, which you cant att to you quicklinks.

So here is what you have to do.

Go to Start Menu, Press Settings, brings you to HTC Settings, press Menu and All Settings, brings you back to Start Menu Settings, Go into System and THEN Task Manager, end process and restart it.

Boy this is really handy.

This rom wont stay long on my device.

Battery problem

I have install your latest rom [ROM][WWE] Sh3lby 1.7 [23509][LEO 1.48][Manila 2.5/2.1/NM][Radio 1.17][XDA UC] en everything went perfect but now my battery is lasting only 12 hours en my Blackstone is warm hole time. What can it be? Also I cannot access 3g.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] artie16:
This is the first WiMo 6.5.1 I ever tried and its looks really great!

But I have noticed a few bugs:

1. When I restart manila, whole manila get a few pixels below where it supposed to be. A soft reset resolve this.

2. When I change the theme and I change it back to HTC Black it is not the originally one. The only to solve is to do an hard reset :S

3. This isn't really a bug. The way to get to Start Menu>Settings is very annoying I think, could you change that?

Greeting Art
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dark Ninja:
No problems in file explorer for me? it aint hung once and its working quite smoothly.. The rom seems to be working really well

@smokku

could you please make a version without htc messaging like the previous one? Because it works smooth when you have less messages but then once theres a good 20-30 then it lags alot.. especially when you put it to traditional mode..

If you cant then could gimme the previous link to the one without htc messaging thanks :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Samwieszkto:
Hi,

Sorry for nagging but your rom still contains a bug/defect which renders the screen backlight in spb mobile shell unusable. Could you pls investigate? Otherwise excellent job!

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
As promised - it is in the first post.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] gohyc:
Hi Smokku, while I think you have a really great ROM going there (v1.7 23059 M2.5), the rom size (nbh) looks suspiciously HUGE at 250Mb. Even Energy ROM which is loaded with stuff is only 189Mb.

I had previously tested a ROM built by a freind and has noticed that the ROM was usually big even with nothing but mostly stock stuff loaded. He found that those disabled components in the kitchen was still cooked into the ROM even though they were disabled, you may want to look into this.

Do keep up the great work though.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
Two factors:

1. This ROM has RadioROM 1.17 included.

2. This ROM is UPX (not LZX) compressed. This takes more space, but decompression takes less CPU, thus ROM is working faster. Since everyone has a Storage Card in, we do not need to count every byte of Internal Storage and may trade space for speed.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] farqui:
I've been using 1.7 for a few days now and find that it's the fastest 6.5 ROM I've used = :D

I'm also pleased that the latest radio doesn't appear to be adversely affecting my battery life either.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Dark Ninja:
Smokku, loving the version without htc messaging, Thanks.

Just one thing, in manila when i tap on the message its supposed to take me to the messaging screen ryt? It doesnt, it just opena windows like the htc messaging one and then closes again. is there a way to change this?

Thanks

Does anyone else find that Active Sync keeps running even with eliasASyncKiller installed?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
...To the HTC Messaging screen showing the message. But the HTC Messaging is missing in this variant. ;-)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] BigE:
This is one of the ROMs I will run for the whole week. First it is stable, no resets are needed for days. Second- it is fast. Is it the fastest? Can't judge as with no benchmarks made, one can only rely on his personal impression. It certainely has about everything i need, so I had very little to install after.

As far s battery life- yes, impressive. I use the phone 12-13 hours heavily (emails, calls, texting) and still have juice. Other ROMs were not that good in my opinion. I had radio 1.17 before so it is not only the radio..

I like this ROM very much...

Hello

One question. Are there any norwegian T9 in this realase (1.7)? I have tried version 1.6 W htc messaging and there it was missing.

Thanks
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] MaXyM:
What about contact links in version without Messaging? Are all replaced by original WM contact application?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] OnlinePredator:
Never noticed this. Have been running spb 3.5 for 4 days now on 1.6 with not problems what so ever.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] OnlinePredator:
Sweet rom!

Have been using 1.6 for almost a week now. This has been the longest I have ever left a custom rom on my device EVER!!!!!

I have no need to update as of yet either as everything I need in the phone has worked flawlessly.

P.S. I am using the 1.6 w/o manila and have only installed opera beta 10 ;-)

Many thanks for a Sh3lby 1.7.

But, when I leave the underground very long searches for communication (15-30 minutes). Why? Tried different roms and radio - does not help.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] xetro:
Hi Smokku,

You are approaching Dutty's work ;) but found some bugs/issues:

- When manila music player or album turns to landscape some clipping occurs with tehe taskbar and softkeys.

- CoPilot is taking up memory while many people might have other navigation software/maps so it is obsolete to them

- Searching contacts only shows phonepad: is it possible to enable qwerty (full/compact)?

Besides these issues: GREAT ROM!!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] protoism:
contacts

Have the same contacts issue with the 1.7 manilla ROM. Also cannot dismiss missed call and can not access call history. Problem with curtain on top of screen. Have not had time to thoroughly check yet - but seems to have issues.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
I don't test Manila 2.1 ROM at all and I don't have time and will to.

Regarding this I wonder whether it is worth to build it at all.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
Thanks for the volume control hint - I will definetly try it out.

e-natives Showcase is nice and it had been included in my pre 1.2 ROMs, but it has issues with recent gwes.exe that could hang the phone. I hope amarulz will update it soon.

I tried adding 3G to CommManager, but the only way that works is by replacing one of its items. I couldn't manage to add another one and don't want to remove any original ones.

The language is stated on the first post and the topic. WWE means WorldWide English.

1.17 is a BlackStone Radio and there should be no issues with putting it in. You need HSPL/USPL anyway to put the ROM in.

Ervius kitchen is supposed to remove the timebomb. I hope that this is only a watermark leftover. We'll see in a month. :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mancsoulja:

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KukurikU:
copy the attached wince.nls to the windows directory and replace the one u have. do it with Resco Explorer or any file managment program that enable overwriting the files in ROM.

go to "settings>Regional settings and you'll find there portuguse brasil and portuguese portugal. enable the one that suites you:)

i am facing the same problems like u have but for hebrew. by chance the wince.nls i am using have the portuguese. this is not going to change the ROM in a potuguese one (menus and so on..)

WINCE PORTUGUESE
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] smokku:
Portuguese regional settings are already in this ROM. Just select in Settings -> System -> Regional Settings.

No need to everwrite anything.
