[Android Themes] DeaDnuLL:
To all the people complaining about themes. "Oh I don't like the color or Oh it is to childish" There has never been an easier time to theme since the release the metamorph. If you are to lazy to take the time and watch 3 - 5 video on how to make a theme don't ***** about the lack of themes. I would also like to point out that most ppl who start a theme never finish it, it is like I posted earlier 2,227 files and 165 dir (and that is after metamorph) with images that require you to compile them and 90% of the time don't come out the way they were meant to. Oh and god help you if one of the packages changes nothing like a little trial and error to fix it. If you don't like the full themes you find on xda go download dxtop, ahome, open home and download them off the market since most of them have all of 15 - 20 icons in them.

If you want to learn how to theme offer to do a port for a existing theme I am sure there are lots of theme developers out there that would love someone offering to port there theme to another rom. I bet they would even help you port the theme and help you learn the ins and outs.

I agree Cyanogen makes a great rom but he updates like a mad man!!! ;)

I am one of those ppl who hosts there theme on another site (all though i keep an XDA thread) and it has nothing to do with ego trips, keeping it off XDA, or being famous (if I wanted to be famous I can safely say I would be doing something that made me money not costs me hosting fees). I just find it easier to manage content on my web server then on a forum thread. I can have a gallery and do static tutorials that way I am not asked 110x how to do the same thing (it would be pointless to start a new thread for a theme specific tutorial) which isn't easy to do on a single thread (cause people are lazy and don't read). I can also track the amount of ppl using it if I had 10 people downloading it I probably would quit development. I started Buuf when I saw it sitting there undeveloped and wanted to use it I had no idea that it was such a pain in the ass to keep up to date, had I known I probably would not have done it. Now I do it mostly for the people who enjoy using it and don't get me wrong I like to do it but it is a lot of work. I have posted my theme on other forums and since it is alot of work why not share it with as many people as possible. I also have a lot of links to XDA (I don't think I have links any where else) on my site which I am sure brings in some new traffic and had it not been for other sites It probably would have taken me longer to find XDA then it did when I first got started.

I would like to point out most ppl that do use my theme are very supportive which makes much easier to keep working on it. Like Prash said if you beat someone down when they first start there theme they will probably quit. I look at it this way if you don't have something nice or constructive to say keep your mouth shut since no one is forcing you to use the theme.

Last thing IMO if you want hero theme run a hero rom. Okay I am done my rant.
[Android Themes] amac25:
WOW! It couldn't be said any better and thank you u just changed my mind about continuing to make themes. I agree about the crisp theme also it didn't look that bad to me seeing as this was my first half ass attempt at a theme http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=516243 but i was lucky enough to have good feedback to push me to keep learning. It took me forever just to find out where the icons were so i applaud him just for that alone.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Putter:
Seems like a recent problem on my HTC Pure. When I try to zoom into the last two closest levels in satellite view in Google Maps Mobile, it at first seems to show the image, then as data is downloaded, all of the image is covered up by the blank screen tiles. When I scroll the screen, I can see a zoomed image, but it quickly gets covered up by the blank screen again. In order to see the satellite view image, I have to zoom out a couple of levels. Anyone know if this is normal? Seems like in the past, I was able to zoom all the way in and get the image. Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] sualc:
I'm afraid this is the way it is meant to work, I flashed many ROMs (official and cooked) from WM6.1 to 6.5 and always had this behaviour. I think it is normal, you cannot zoom like in the PC version.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Putter:
Yeah, this is weird. The map view will still zoom all the way in, but when I switch to satellite view, the image reverts to blank screen with the little magnifying glass icon with a "-" in it. I could almost swear that the satellite view used to display full zoom before.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] miro666:
Not all area on Google Maps have maximum zoom, resolution reasons...Not Mobile Windows or ROM guilty, but on PC too.

That is, because sattelite picture not highest resolution on all world area (only greatest city area will be on maximum zoomed good) , and wouldnt be opaque sattelite picture, Google maps Server give not picture, but this glass icon with "-".

Regards
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] sualc:
Yes, you're right miro666, but I think Putter refers to the fact that in satellite view it's like there's a "zoom limit", you cannot go down to ,let's say, ground level even in detailed zones otherwise you get a white map with little spyglasses indicating that you have to zoom out. It's not a matter of googlemaps hires or lowres areas.
[HD2 General] shaunym:
Hi all,

My footprints exe file in the windows directory does not have the footprints icon attached to it. When I move it to my programs it comes up with the standard icon rather than the footprint icon. I have located both the exe and the png icon file all I want to know is how to attach the icon to the exe file to when I create a shortcut the icon is attached to the shortcut.

Thanks
[HD2 General] Xdenwarrior:
Just out of curiosity, does anyone have this picture/wallpaper of a chick with large sunglasses lol as u can see in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYPY7ZKeaso&feature=related (1:17) or here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FntFBQDjek&feature=player_embedded (1:23), or even here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVAmmf7dr-c&feature=related (1:55)

To me, it looks like a cool (futuristic) wallpaper, that from those videos probably comes with the Rom on ur HD2,...

So, can anyone with HD2 upload here (be it 800 by 480, or 1920 by 1080)???

(i couldn't find it anywhere on Google)

Thanx
[HD2 General] Archer:
Here's your "cool (futuristic) wallpaper", you perv ;)

It's too big to upload on here, so here's a link to it. It won't be there forever, so I suggest you save the image, rather than the link :)

[HD2 General] fredskis:
It's on the phone on the phone memory isn't it? I'm sure I ran into it while looking through stock photos.
[HD2 General] Archer:
Yes, it is (or it was on mine - I got it off MyPhone as I deleted all the stock crap they put on the phone). I don't think he has a HD2 - he just fancies the girl lol.
[HD2 General] Xdenwarrior:
Haha, nice an' big!! :D :D Thank u bro!

But if i was "fancying the girls" i would have went elsewhere LOL lol

dis pic still needs some photoshopin todo :p no offense if thas ur girlfriend lol

And yeah, obviously I ain't got an HD2 (otherwise wouldn't ask) - i got i8910: jus feel more like enjoyin this **** on 16:9wide 16mil AMOLED display lol

(but might get an HD3 with WM7 when that comes out)

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ihh:
Will it really be 58% of free Ram at startup?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] krups:
Sounds cool! :D But why older build (23017)?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donsalari:
Yes :) :)

Using it for last 2 days now. Just Facing minor problems.

Because i trust it way too much :D Just check out the smoothness and RAM usage :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] krups:
Cool! But still there are some minor annoying issues (at least to me) with older builds. Just as an example "if i m opening any settings from start menu->settings->system, and closing it, it will redirect to home screen, so for updating things there i will need to navigate again", "ordering start menu icons is not handy", few minor things.

Anyways apart from that, this would be a definite outstanding combination (WM6.5+Sense 2.5) considering stable free RAM. :) Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] atifsh:
is it 58% free or used... because even the official 6.5 with manila 1.2 is 52% used, and with manila 2.1 its round 60 - 65 % used
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donsalari:
After booting, If you see the task manager. It shows 58% :) So its 58% used.

Great ROM

Dear Don,

I think this is the best ROM ever. I'm downloading it now. The old one was great.

I tried the overclocking app. Performance.exe with the old one. Thw speed was so high and no problems with over clock.

If anyone likes to have more speed I recommed to use it.

Thanks

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] joetam_hk:
Your rom is really fast. Thank you for your works in improving this rom.

Neverthess, I could not use the camera and choose the option in the album. Is this problem only faced by me or others as well ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] PCPhil:
Excellent ROM.

Running at 60% RAM usage after soft reset going up to about 70% after opening and closing a few programs.

As long as I can keep my satnav running whilst recieving bluetooth in car calls I am happy. That's allways been the litmus test for me. Nothing worse than getting a call and TomTom closing when in a city centre.

Still can't get any of the soft key menu items to be active in 'Album'.

Contacts tab appears to be working fine.

Just a quickie. I do also like using normal contacts with the fast finger sliding 'alphabet' selector. Is there a way to re-enable this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] 6duke8:
i can't use it either, it is not authorized.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] donsalari:
It should be. Can some1 confirm it? I cannot coz i am already working on the next beta.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] imrock:
Its running the video BUT at a low frame rate (i'hv had this problem with some other roms too but haven't found any solution, i'hv also tried installing neo 2007 3 drivers to no use)

but a great rom, installed a couple of cabs i think which should be useful to others:

View attachment 253727 << Disable clock animation

View attachment 253728 << Manila 2.5 No Curtains (both top n bottom)

View attachment 253729 << 12 Quick links + No Backgroung for all

^^ i did not make these cabs, just found them n forgot where i found 'em from!!:D:D

CHEERSSS!!!!!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] HkDng:
Plz can you have short explaination of each CAB file?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] greatbal:
I've been flashing my Diamond with custom roms since I bought it 2 months ago. but after trying 3 Sense 25 roms, been keeping away from Sense 2.5 because of several issues and opted for 2.1 roms. But I don't know what came over me and tried this one just now. After an hour of using the rom, I would say that you, my friend, has done an excellent job! Thanks! :)

PS: There are some bugs/issues that I could live with. But which custom rom hasn't? :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] imrock:
i can see the .cab names of the attachments..thought it wud be same for all:p:p..n provided the details now

n a few findings till yet of the rom:

1) camera not working

2) sound and display settings restarts manila

3) calender appointments work now but the first two inputs (title n location) are not visible properly

4) dude..why did u shift to this taskbar, the previous one was way better!!

5) installed tachi dialer n getting ram cons 64% at startup!!!!!!! awesome!!!

6) messages not opening thru manila

is there a way to get the manila scrolling a bit smoother, any settings for advanced config??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] enjoylife1788:
+1 for this.....completely agree....after tryin several 2.5 roms, i had given up bcoz of ram issues but you have made it possible...i can proudly say dat my diamond has still some life left.. ;)..

Thanx for this excellent rom......
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] enjoylife1788:
i just have one doubt....

y does it take a long time to restart the device...it doesnt happen with other roms???any particular reason???

Also it takes ages for the task bar to load..as in the top right button dat shows the task....even after sense is loaded,it takes another a minute for taskbar to load...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cedomir:
Hi,

Thanks for the reply, but as I quoted previous message, there is no checkboxes in that dialog, so I can't remove check(s). There is no way to change content you want to sync, and therefore phone tries to sync tasks which leads to error. The delete button is disabled for content types (you can just delete server, not contacts, mail etc), and settings button work for some content types, but there is no option to disable synchonization.

HI,

First thanks you very much for your great and fast ROM.

I'v got just one little probleme, i m french and i just would like have a AZERTY keyboard, but i cant with EZ or finger keyboard, only QWERTY.

I try to install finger keyboard with french layout but i've got a "crash" with the finger keyboard alwrady install in the ROM.

Do you think you can just leave in EZ or finger keyboard the AZERTY layout ?

Thank a lot and thanks again for your work.

Hey DonSalari, Many Thanx for this Rom, it's just incredible (I dl the latest ultra light sense 6.5). Waoooooou. My diamond stills very proud now :D

Be sure that I will test also your next Rom, hope there wille be a Super-light version too?:rolleyes:

Just a few question:

* how to change the finger keyboard to Azerty?

* I tried to make background4alltas but itcraches the sense, is there another way to have the same wallpaper on each sense tab?

* Do you recommand to install your tweaks (it sounds like many of users here have some troubles after install it)

* Do you think you could remove Internet Explorer for later versions, you will have lot of memory (and everyone could install his favourite browser)

Many thanx again for your work, and good luck for yhe next version ;)
