BeeGee! He Who Hosts, Hosts All :D

MaxSense? Ok, I'll look into it ...

Leo ... hmmm ....

HTC Sense 2.5 ... Sorry mate, I'm barely a fan of Sense 2.1, 2.5 is a def no go :cool:

Edit: Max Sense : Ok, looked into it ... Er, no:D ... for lots of reasons really, but no
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BeeGee_Tokyo:
Yeah, still collecting and hosting as much Topaz ROMs as possible :D

MaxSense is kind of fun, still under development, but I like it more than HomeCo0kie or MaxManila.

But a "no" to Sense 2.5 is a "no" to MaxSense as well.

Post #3 has been updated to provide link for a full SYS version of 23569 Titanium - voip packages, marketplace, etc, all included. By popular demand !! :D

Peace
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] RodneyMcKay:
I've updated and all is good so far. I'll let you know once I have a chance to play with the voip config.

Also a note for all that backup there files during flash updates. The restore from SPB Backup just went a lot smoother than Resco backup. Not to say that there are problems with Resco, but it always seemed to leave some bits unfinished. SPB has put everything back in, including my wireless keys.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DrewVS:
I'd vote for MS VoiceCommand integration as well. I use it constantly, and many of the versions seem to be quirky when installed on 6.5 after the fact.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
I've never used MSVC before so thought I'd look into it.

Downloaded version 1.6.19209 from this thread and installed. The voice dialling seems to work fine, appointments are read out but not SMS, and a few other things don't seem to work so I guess full functionality isn't there.

Might be able to convert into an EXT package and build into the rom which may fix some issues...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] RodneyMcKay:
Voip update

So I've managed to get my sip server working externally through our cisco pix (strangely confusing). My first testing was with an old version of PortSip, that I had before the recent update, didn't work, but then it notified me that PortGo 1.2 was available. This version was able to connect and place calls.

Now I've followed the guide posted here at xda and the first time was a complete no go. First I some how didn't save the config file with my settings so the _sip_proxy.com_ entries didn't work, as would be expected... Also it registered these as Prov1SIPSettings instead of Prov0SIPSettings. I don't know yet if that make a difference.

After I reconfigured my file and reinstalled the settings, I restarted the phone. At this point I was quite worried. My phone started into a boot loop. After removing the battery and memory card it was willing to start up all the way.

It did register my provider settings, but I might have something set wrong still because it eventually times out and says no service.

I'll try again in the next few days, time permitting of course.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DrewVS:
Finally, a bug! It could certainly be 6.5.3 itself.

When a dialog box for mail comes up, for example, one needs to accept a bad security certificate, one cannot open mail (or texts) from the titanium interface. Any amount of clicking or rebooting and clicking is ignored.

If one then opens the app from the program list instead of titanium, the dialog box pops up, one can acknowledge it, and then all works fine again.

Seems consistent, I've seen this three times now.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] DrewVS:
No more activity for this ROM?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Coming soon ... Manila 2.5 ... "Samhain" ...

New ROM Featuring Sense 2.5

Head over to here for new ROM with Sense 2.5.2018 ... Ok, I said it would never happen .... Never say never :D

Titanium

Titanium, das beste Rom das ich je hatte, habe in den vergangenen Jahren

schon viel ausprobiert. Es ist sehr stabil, kaum Stromverbrauch, mehr braucht

kein Mensch dafür mal ein Danke.

Gruß Picasso
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
@arun.ramachandra: are you running the rom with or without manila? I am not having any of these issues myself. Can you open showcase to see which programs are running to account for high memory usage? At present my phone has been on for several hours and memory usage is 38%.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
New version - tweaked a bit more, and organised start menu into folders.

Enjoy, peace :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Just realised that I'd lost shortcuts to google and windows messenger in the last revision, so have fixed this. Have put up the latest version that also has some files skimmed off it, mostly media related stuff and unwanted programs :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] soup006:
Hi what canvas do you use in the manila 2.1 version of your rom?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
"PhoneCanvas_3_50_36296_0"

Cheers
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] czeczek69:
Very nice job :D

It's possibile to publishing your kitchen?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
New rom 23515

New rom available based on WM6.5 23515. The main development in this is threaded messaging, a nice feature that makes it possible to group messages together according to sender id or the usual other options.

Please note that I have experienced some freezes with this release, and would recommend a soft reset immediately after flashing.

See post 3 for download location.

Peace
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ab4nk:
What's inside ?

Dear chef..

Would like to describe what's inside this Roms ? Manila , appl , etc ..? :)

You describes will be helpfully :)

Many thanks before
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
See post one for a general overview. The new 23515 rom contains much the same as 23616 and does not have manila, but there is a 23616 version available with manila 2.1

Peace
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
New Rom - 23518

Update to previous build - much faster, more responsive, no bugs apparent in email client. Threaded messaging still available in this rom, latest feature in WM6.5.3 builds.

Enjoy, post feedback, peace :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] bsw11:
Your 23616 is blazing fast - but why did you use Sense 2.1 and note the latest 2.6 Test that is out there?

I am used to the newer Sense at this point, don't want to go back. Everything else I love - Showcase rocks! But try to use the latest Manila please.

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] johnny.g:
Hi v quick.. functionality of 653 is a big improvement on the stock and it looks pretty sorted now.. only issues i've found are

the phone canvas slides all over the place

and yes the GSM/3G switch is missing..

keep up the good work, thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] goRt:
23518 Titanium

Got this loaded, but when I sync e-mail the phone locks up, reboot doesn't allow me in.

MTTY reset doesn't improve things
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] citiboy:
I think so, pls.also come with sense 2.5 if posible. :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
I don't have this issue. Which rom did you d/l ? Check connection settings for sync and mail servers etc - auto setup can sometimes put in the wrong values.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Thanks for the comments - personally I'm not keen on 2.5, I find it too cluttered. In fact I don't use manila at all on my phone, I like plain old titanium :D

So a 2.5 version is unlikely ... altho I'm open to persuasion :D

Peace

PS - new rom soon to be released featuring some upgrades including HTC album (allowing sharing of pictures to facebook) and Social Network connection (allowing for login to facebook, youtube, twitter)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] johnny.g:
Good work ! I agree that Sense 2.5 is way too cluttered on the little TD2..any chance of building back in the wi-fi router feature that was v useful ? itit was left out of your last ROMS ..thanks again..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] bastecklein:
i changed the theme. now i cannot get back to the original theme that came with the rom, lol. how do i get it back?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Choose the classic blue theme, then at the bottom of that page select "use this picture as background" and select wallpaper_default from the list that appears - this will return things to the original settings (I hope :D)

Peace
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] bastecklein:
lol that was it, thanks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] goRt:
As per the title of my post - 23518 Titanium

I'll try again next weekend on 23616

Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Rom Updates

New build based on 23518 including new communication manager with wifi router enabled, new accounts manager enabling login to facebook, etc, IM messenger now included and fixed scrollbar on dialpad.

(Haven't got round to updating the manila version with new acc. and comm. managers etc - next day or so :D)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] hrivas:
Is it be possible without Titanium ;-) only menu and stripped at max.

I'm very keen on 23616 but it freez sometime
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] qbus00:
Waiting for Manila update. This 6.5.3 build is closest to my needs :D.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
New roms updated and uploaded - titanium and manila versions - with new comm manager, wifi router capability, improved and additional camera settings and newer version Opera.

Enjoy :D

Peace.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mari8b:
Hi,

great ROM, would you make it in another language also? Czech version would be great...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] qbus00:
Thanks, however the scrollbar on dialpad is still visible :(.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
It should disappear after a soft reset.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] qbus00:
OK, I found that however this fix removes scrollbars from all applications...

I posted the most proper solution here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=579227

This dialer restores scrollbars and installs Rhodium dialer patched for 6.5.3 with disabled scrollbars :-). Feel free to use this CAB in next release of your rom :).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jlccarv:
how stable is the new 23518 ROM? the older freezes about 3-4 times per day...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Not experiencing any freezes ... occasionally the messaging app closes when opening new messages - small bug in experimental build, easy to live with :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jeremychan:
Just installed the titanium version. Its fast, but not very stable unfortunately. Moved over from Dutty's, slower but didn't keep hanging. Keep up the good work!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Thanks for the feedback . I'm not experiencing any hangs or freezes, just a minor bug with messaging as above. Do you notice if it happens with a particular action or app?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] komsa:
flashed 23518 manila version,so far everything is ok,nice,smooth and fast but i found one bug......cannot turn on bluetooth from the comm manager main window (switch) but when i go in the bluetooth menu everything is ok i can turn turn it on.......thanks for your work anyway its nice ROM :):):)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Thanks komsa - I don't use bluetoth so hadn't encountered this issue but yes, you're right - it will switch on when you go to start menu -> settings -> bluetooth, but not from comm manager. Under investigation ;)

Thanks for all feedback so far.

Peace
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
To fix this : remove this entry

"BluetoothPlatformType"=dword:00000001

from this registry key :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager]

:D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Rom Updates Feb 2nd :

23519 and 23626 released - Titanium and Manila 2.1 versions.

Both with improved power management tweaks and hidden camera modes enabled and optimised.

Best one for my money? - 23519 ;)

Peace
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] komsa:
installed 23519,very bad,full of bugs as 23518.......biggest and most important bug for me is :when i installed few apps side scroll bar cannot be displayed at all and menus in apps also.....resco explorer,memmaid,..... thanks but we must wait more complete versions of the newer ROMs :):):)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Scrollbar issue is easy fix if you miss it that much :D

Just adjust reg settings to default value (13) and soft reset.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] komsa:
chriss it's not about that,do i miss them or not i cannot use some apps without them(HD tweak for example) ok we will do the scrollbars with registry but what we gone do with menus in some apps(resco explorer,for example try to make new folder from the menu or,try do go to registry editor in memmaid and add new string and screen will look like explosion):):):):)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
I have resco installed too - all functionality is there so I don't understand your issues. With no scrollbar I can use finger-scrolling, create new folders, etc. I do understand tho that maybe some apps don't support finger-scrolling?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] bsw11:
wifi router missing

The new version does not include the wifi-router - is there a cab that can add this or can you make sure its included in the next build please.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
I'm using 23519 and the wifi router is there - can't understand why you wouldn't have it either? Even the 23626 I can see from the build log it was included :confused::confused: I'm confused!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
New ROM update - 23529, same branch as previous 519 build :

* Increased messaging stability

* Usual COM5 threaded messaging features

* Increased system stability

Enjoy, peace :D

(Screenshots in post #1 are a little out of date but you get the general idea ;) )
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] komsa:
installed 23529,very interesting version....fast,stable and beautiful as i dont like manila 2.5 because they are very slow and sluggish....after installed my programs i have one line remaining from wm6.5 wallpaper(start menu)....last time was my mistake i installed dusk theme for 2.1 manila which caused my problems with menus......Chriss5 do you maybe have an idea what could make this line appering on my screen?thanks again for your work :):):):)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Not sure, looks like a thing that 'position fix' should fix - it hasn't though obviously! If you flick the screen upwards does the line disappear or does it persist?

It could be the theme interfering with manila postion - what is it? Is it for 6.5 or 6.5.x ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] komsa:
... it persist no matter what i do.....:) but the phone is ok,everything seems to be working....i'll try full format and installing again....

Phone : Topaz(Diamond2)

Rom : Cherry topaz 23529 by Chris5s

Radio : 2.49.25.204
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Ok ... see if it's there before you install any apps / themes. Sometimes it can be seen after the initial customisation is over, but it disappears after a flick of the screen.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] darkmessiah:
Kewl ..

jus installed this ROM.. as of now.. very impressive .. works perfect n fast
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] komsa:
after full format everything is ok,installed same progs and i dont have a sufficient line but now manila doesn't want to rotate(G-sensor autorotation)....

last time it worked......:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] komsa:
"Flip it" does the job.............
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] andylayo:
Thankyou!

I allways find it risky upgrading to a new rom,I liked my last one and had it for ages but I fancied one without sense as Ive grown to like the new spb shell,so i wanted something not so heavy to run smoothly underneath it.

However I still wanted the HTC volume,keyboard and album + com manager and quick gps.but could nt find a plain non sense rom with these in...........:(

UNTIL NOW:D

Thank god I found your thread,I flashed three other roms and although nice they didnt fit my requirements.I thought I was gonna eat some of the old humble pie and roll back to my previous old rom.

For anyone else that likes a bit of htc and windows stuff this is the rom for you.Sorry to blabber on but i dont post often but wanted to thankyou.Ill road test for a couple of weeks and if its all good Ill tuck something in your back pocket come payday:)

Rom plus points for me:

No chessey start up tune

Nice professional Splash screen

Nice Royal blue soft keys

HTC Keyboard actually adds words!!!

Smooth and responsive

Not highly modded with someone elses ideas of nice graphics!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Thanks for the positive comments Andy. Hope you like the rom, I'd be interested to hear how you get on with it.

Cheers,

Peace
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Briefcase:
I'm happy!

Hello Chris,

I tried your 23529.5.5.0 titanium rom today, it's really amazing. Thanks for keeping it simple and really fast. I imported 600+ sms messages with PIM Backup without any trouble (didn't even disable threaded messages before importing lol). It still works amazingly fast! A lot better than HTC's messaging!

I installed Elecont Weather app which integrates nicely into Titanium's today screen. Now it's just perfect. Thank you very much for cooking this rom!

--------------

Edit:

Is it possible to install Opera 9.7 on this rom? I downloaded Opera_Browser_9_70_35810_0.cab from XDA to my SD card and started setup. It first told me it had to remove the old version which was fine by me. After a while it said: "The previous version of Opera Software Opera 9 cannot be removed. Do you want to continue installing Opera Software Opera 9?" to which i clicked Yes. I selected to install on the device itself and it the install starts. Unfortunately within a minute or so it displays "Installation of Opera_Browser_9_70_35810_0.cab was unsuccessful." :(

Am I doing something wrong? I downloaded the cab from two different sources to be sure it isn't corrupt. Also tried an older build, same messages appear.

--------------

Edit2:

Nevermind, after hard reset it works. Guess i have been playing around too much ;-)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] dren:
Does this have the new phone canvas ?

And does the 'add contact' work (saving a number option after the call) ?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
I do believe this is the phone canvas used :

Phone_Canvas_Enhancement_2G_TEST_4_2_62119222911_0

Unknown contacts are indeed added after the call is ended.

Cheers
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] dren:
Ok.

Also looks like you have 'WiFi' as one of the two buttons on the start screen taskbar. Is it possible to change it to 'Phone' if I want to ?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Sure:

HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila

"LSKText"="Phone"

"LSKPath"="\Windows\cprog.exe"

and

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome

"SK1Text"="Phone"

"SK1URL"="\windows\cprog.exe"

I changed it cos, well I connect to internet wirelessly, also why have a softkey to do the job of a hardware key?

Cheers
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] dren:
Yes, I relaised that you might have replaced it because there is a hardware key for calls.

But as there is not much WiFi around on this side and could not think of any other soft key as of now, so thought would put the one which I use the most :)

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Briefcase:
Are you planning on releasing a 23540 titanium version? :-)

EDIT: Got a freeze with both your 23626 and 23529 titanium versions. When i set a phone pin lock and restart the device, after giving in the phone pin, it asks for the sim pin which is normal, but right after that the phone freezes. Is there a fix for this problem? It happens every time, even a soft reset doesnt solve the problem. A hard reset does but than you lose all your settings including the phone pin lock ;-)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
hi chris, do you think it's a 23529 that responsible for this freeze(s)? another ROMs also experience this freeze and fail-to-wake-up after sleep/standby.... 23529 or 21892, is the culprit?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
I never had a wake up issue with 23529 tht is being experienced by some folks cooking other builds.

The freezes experienced are common with these builds.

At the mo I'm using 23534 with manila and its runningv ery nice.Fixed scrollbar in topaz dialler, incoming caller id is displayed correctly, no freezes. I don't use the sim lock feature, can't explain weird behavior.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] catchmeu:
Could you post the link to the 23534 Titanium only with fixed dialer. The one on the first post has weird dialer scroll bar and shifted lock screen if I recall..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] goRt:
Hi chris5s,

I've been using your 23626LT219 for a few days and it's very good apart from incoming calls don't get resolved (i.e. I can't see the name of the person calling) and outgoing calls show the person I first called details (name and number) even though the correct person is dialled - very strange

Anyway, please keep up the excellent work
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Hi, thanks for the comments. Seems this is an issue with some of the current builds. I use 23529 and doesn't seem to do this ...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Currently having a few probs with internet and unable to upload at the moment. Sorry :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Scrollbar fix

The attached file replaces the phone canvas and does not have a scroll bar in the display, for those of you annoyed by this :D

Rename the file, after extraction, to phcanrc.dll, copy into \Windows directory - you will need a 3rd party app such as resco explorer or total commander to do this. Reboot the phone and voila! no scrollbar :eek:

Peace
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] dren:
This is a very smooth, light and professional ROM. Thanks very much.

I am using the 23539/Manila.

Couple of things I noticed till now,

- The phone canvas seems slightly smaller in size as a thin strip of the today screen background is seen on the top.

- Zoom bar dosent work in Opera (but then it might be a problem with the Opera ver. though)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] andylayo:
Donation

Hi Chris

I have been using your 23626 for a bit now so I have sent you a donation as promised.

Rom is very good with only a few niggles.

:Left soft key can be changed but reverts back to wi-fi after soft reset.

:Ezinput 2.1 remembers words:) but forgets again after soft reset:(

:Htc menu enhancement scrolling is a bit stuttery (is that a word?)

:POUTLOOK crashed a couple of times and needed soft reset.

Good work though,Wish I had half your knowledge!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] chris5s:
Thanks for the donation, glad the rom has been appreciated.

I'm hoping to get a newer version uploaded within the next couple o days - 23541 / 28230. The latter is running very smooth, well, they both do actually, the only differences, superficially, being in Mobile Office and threaded email - or lack of it, in 28230 case.

Wondering if folks actually use features such as Mobile Office, Adobe PDF viewer, Windows Live / Live Messenger, etc ... May just do a very barebones version ... ideas for what to leave in / out ???

Peace
