I always disable the HTC Sense, and install homescreen ++, I know, an old program but works fine with this ROM! In here you can also set the taskmanager.

Playing around with this ROM i found one thing: clicking on the taskmanager (from HS++) always the status screen is shown (not all running programs).
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Shiv3r:
hmm the left outs?

MSN

google earth

weather anim on/off switch

maby tweaks like no clock-flip

greets
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Well actually there's much more left out in Cheetah 3.2r Nld

Al for the greater good in the name of speed :D

Still most of the things left out can be installed by cab you can find on XDA

or there's some other ( in most cases better ) application ready for download on XDA

As mentioned before the difference between Cheetah and TopaT will be big so you guys actually do have a choice. One of the good things for Cheetah is you can always install the things you really mis and when it turns out the app slows things down you can always delete it:rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Shiv3r:
found a small bug in cheetah 3.2r

The battery icon on top shows a full charge even when my battery is now at 20%

Greetz
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
Well I can say that at the moment I LOVE the rom. it is fast and works smoothly I haven't installed the taskmanager yet since I also have resco taskmanager so I might try that one first.

I did find something that really bothers me though (don't know if that was the case in earlier cheetah's as well). The T9 dictonary is really crap, when I use it it takes dutch and english words (mostly english) and therefore I have to check each word that I write. Is there a way to put the original NLD T9 dictonary database on the ROM, cause now I even have to disable the T9 since I Can't work with it?

EDIT:

The T9 database it the main reason of using a dutch ROM by the way, I know there are tools to enable multiple languages but they work less good then the official HTC Dutch T9 library
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Shiv3r:
I noticed the same thing.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Shiv3r:
Small "bug" in Cheetah and Topat.

In sending and receiving sms I encountered the following "bug".

Normally every sms is ordered by time send. After a hang the sms is now ordered by Sender. Myself (IK) first and then the sms from the other.

Is there a way to fix this?

In cheetah the same thing happened. System or sms seems to be a bit unstable.

Greetz
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] BumAround:
did activate/use 'Location' or not? Time and date has been set correctly?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] arsinic:
is there a way to set your rom to (US) English?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
What do you mean with 'After a hang'? Did you discover a freeze of the device? To me the ROM is very stable it didn't freeze yet and is very fast. I don't know about the battery yet but it looks fine.

I did discover a windows live connectivity error but that only happend once. Further I also noticed that indeed the battery indicator does not work. But main problem for me is the NLD T9 dictonary, that really doesn't work.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
what do you mean with that, shouldn't you then just look at the Cheetah WWE version?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Shiv3r:
Yes i meant Freeze and it happened while texting.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Oke been on a new TopaT project for a while now and things seem to run fast, smooth and stable. The first three to send me a pm can test it if they want ;)

Shiv3r i didn.t notice any hangups so far ( both on Cheetah as on TopaT ) would you mind sharing the things you've changed after flashing? Or is is a clean flash install?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
Wow you just keep going don't you :D I will stay on the cheetah for a while now cause I really love your new release. But do you know if there is a way to fix this T9 dictonary? The battery icon 'issue' I can live with for now but the dictonary not really. My text message really look like the old KPN commercial if I am not carefull (goeiemoggel)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bandis710:
:D send you a pm
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
I'm still looking for a way to fix this with a cab file, till now no luck i'm affraid.

Ofcourse this will be fixed in the new Cheetah release. But i do want to way a bit and see what "bugs" turn up :rolleyes:

The TopaT Test version isn't such a big change, actually a setback to Topaz Manila ( same as used for Cheetah 3.2R ) and lot's of tweaks in OS.

So it has the looks of TopaT and the feel of Cheetah, and i must say maybe i'm incorrect but it even feels faster than Cheetah.

Download link for Cheetah 3.2r Nld updated in first post.

- Fixed HTC Black issues

- Fixed T9 Dutch ( select Dutch T9 manually )

- Fixed standard startmenu folders

- some other minor changes
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
You're the BEST!!!! :D Downloading now and let you know if it is THE perfect ROM now (previous version was very close)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
What is PINET_ROM? it is an empty folder on the device and I also noticed an MUSIC folder with some files in it, was that on purpose?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
PINER_ROM is part of the Facebook Online Album Fix, it's supposed to be there ;) The Music folder contains the 2 standard music files as it is in the original roms.

So yes both supposed to be there :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
Well so far it really seems to be a great ROM, I will keep playing with it today and let you know tomorrow how I think about it :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Shiv3r:
testing Topat.

So far so good
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Wartexx:
I was going to download cheetah, but it says : Cheetah 3.2r Nld ( 9/3/2010 version ), so is this a new version? cuz the title isn't yet updated...

is the link already the new 09 version? Tnx

Edit:

Flashed it, hang at the first time booting after flashing, now hardresettet it, waiting for it to start...

Edit2

After hard resetting, it hang at HTC SENSE WORDT GESTART, ....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] grox:
Great news! Flashed and installed it, superb ROM! THX!! it is really quick, the first edition (before this update) was already!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Danzka:
Also flashing the new Cheetah :p
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
I had that the first time after the flash as well, just a few minutes it should work after a while, when you then do a hard reset it won't re-occur (didn't in my case.

I can only say I LOVE the rom, it is so fast responds very well and the nld dictonary is much better this way.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] hjb150:
I have also upgraded to cheetah 3.2r NLD.

Very happy with it, but there is one annoying thing though.

During a phone call, the screen doesn't automatically lock or shuts down, resulting in my ear pressing buttons all around the screen.

Hope this can be fixed.

Despite this, thanks for releasing this great NLD ROM!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] yordy:
Why no games in Cheetah 3.2r ??
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bandis710:
@Patensas : although I understand that Topat is your rom and you want to give it your personal feel, I think you should not cook in cookies hometab .. I have tried uninstalling it and well .. it is just not possible .. You could say go for cheetah, but I like the stock feel of Topat ..

Like I said Topat is your litlle "baby" :) but including a mod which isn't uninstallable limits the rom somehow .
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Nico van der Linden:
Ok I'm sure now (I think :D). I will go for the cheetah ROM, running it now for this weekend and I love it. I reverted the start menu to a three grid rom with your files you provided me earlier in this thread (strange it does work now :confused:). This way the 'iPhone' icons looks much better I didn't like them in the small resolution.

The phone really responds great and works lovely and I did not find any bugs yet. So I think I will stay to this one for some time now. I think I will move away from windows mobile on my new phone which would (hopefully) be the new iPhone so I have enough time left to test this ROM until then :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] grox:
I'm loving this ROM also, but found a bug. Yesterday I was called, and after answering the complete phone went blank and restarted. I had this also with one previous version of Cheetah. I tried to reproduce, but after this it didn't restart. One more thing, I installed freeRAM 1.9.9; can it has something to do with this? I also installed homescreen++, and when I click on the taskmanager, it always shows me the infostatus, i cannot see the running programs.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
My guess it does have something to do with either freeRAM or Homescreen++ since i didn't counter this bug ( or anyone else as far as i know of )

New TopaT will arrive within a few minutes, keep an eye on the first post.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] grox:
Great!! Will flash this one, i guess. (nothing else to do on such an rainy sunday), or is there any news one the new Cheetah??

I use Homescreen++ for the batterystatus and the taskmanager in the top of the screen. Does anybody know a better program? I live near the border with Germany and I use this program also to see on which network i am. So im looking for a replacement of hs++ with following benefits:

- See batterylife (in %)

- See provider

- taskmanager
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
News on Cheetah? Actually no, will work on it next week.

I would say next weekend --> updated Cheetah :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Shiv3r:
Phone still wakes up when receiving a text message. This is annoying when the phone is in your pockets.

Default keyboard language is still set as English.

Liked the 4 row icons on home tab better.

Topat 1.4 feels slower then the test version.

greetz
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bandis710:
There is something wrong with the weather/mylocation function in Topat 1.4.. When I refresh the weather it shows temperatures for the whole week, however there is no city shown, only the text mijn locatie ..

In the registry hkcu\software\htc\manila\Weather.citylist the value is empty .. MAybe that's the problem .. However I do not know what to put in that value
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gremmmy:
Heey patensas

My phone is at HTC at the moment, they are fixing my case from my dm2.

Im back in business with testing your roms, when i have my phone back:rolleyes:

About the problem with htc and vodafone, i had some phone calls with htc last week and they said that im not the only person with the bug in my gps. It seems that Vodafone having some problems with there database at there sentmasten.. But they finnaly manages to fixe it now. (it took damn to long:mad:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bart01:
Thanks, it finally works :) also found the wifirouter. Nice rom btw
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
No thanks, happy to be helpfull just glad it works for you ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] thysone:
Hi Patensas.

I am untill now still running Dutty HG6 NLD.

Yesterday All GPS functions on my TD2 stopped working. Tomtom, Google maps and the location plugin. None of the applications could get a GPS fix. After alot of flashing original rom, dutty's HG6 and so on at some point I managed to get everything working again except for the location plugin....

This is also the time I choose to go for the Cheetah rom due to the good responces here in this topic.

I'll download and install tonite or can I expect a new updated version shortly ?

How is the location plugin wotking for you , when I press "nu bijwerken " it does not work via GPRS / 3G Vodafone, it does work on WIFI. You live in the same wonderfull city as me :-) and you are on Vodafone as well. Does it still work on your end?

Can you add Internet Sharing to the comm manager or is this something I can add myself?

Once I have feedback on your roms i'll get back to you. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Hi there neighbour :D

Well i would say go for it, both Cheetah 2.1 and 2.2 have a fully working location service. Do remember you should disable proxy server when using Vodafone ;)

I will try to release another rom as soon as there`s an update on sys files. 21887 is the latest for now. When a new one arrives i will add a full packed Comm Manager.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] thysone:
Cheers mate. I'll go for 2.2 then :) Yes Proxy disabled. I still do not understand why all of a sudden all GPS applications failed anyways.....

Is there a list of "apps installed" available?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bandis710:
Is it some option I forgot or is the rom not completely dutch ? On the hometab the days of the week still show their english names ..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] thysone:
Good observation. It's visable on the screen shot as well. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
You're right, forgot to set local settings to Dutch. You can change it by going to settings --> system --> Local and set it to Nederlands.

Will be corrected in the next release.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] thysone:
Rom installed but still no location service through 3G/GPRS ( proxy disabled ). Same problem as I had earlier.

I can't understand why....... It has always worked untill yesterday..... Rest of the apps work fine ( Tomtom and Google EARTH )
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
That`s strange, same rom, same provider and same location still it doesn't work for you and it does for me :confused:

How about a radio change?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] thysone:
Yes and Yes... I give up.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Well only difference between yours and mine would be the radio version, i changed back to 4.48.25.20 to increase battery life. Maybe that would be a thing to try?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] thysone:
Forgot to mention but I did. Tried all recent radio's to test. Nothing.

The strange thing is that it does work via wifi connected to the internet, just not via GPRS. It just does not make sense to me unless all vodafone users should have the same issue but that's not the case. GPS is working fine in all roms / radio's with Tomtom and Google maps so it's not a GPS malfuntion in my hardware I would say.

I have seen that this "Location function" has been an issue with more people who started to flash custom roms ( when you look in the Dutty topic first post ) but it has always worked for me untill yesterday....

Not sure where to look to be honest... Once more to sum up what I tried:

- Different HTC roms / Custom roms

- Radio roms : various versions tried

- GPS works in all other cases with applications like Tomtom 7 and Google maps, footprints and so on.

Location does not work via GPRS, works fine with wifi connection.

Enjoying your rom by the way :) So far no issues.

EDIT:

Just sorted this out. Work around I did not try yet and made it work:

- Update Radio rom

- Soft Reset phone (again)

- Hard reset phone

And now it works again :) The only option I have is that the radio rom and OS might have had some sort of conflict.. Anyways it works. :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] janneman22:
Would you make a 28xxx build version of your ROM?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Well i can built it for you but i will not support it. Actually i don't like the bottom startmenu and it's giant buttons that's why i use 21887. But i can however change sys to built 28205 if you want. :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] thysone:
Ahh so that's the system build where this comes from. :)

I never liked these buttons as well.

I have seen HTC released a newer version of Sense for android, is this sense UI to 2.02 ? Or this this a completely different version? I have seen some roms with the documents Tab in the sense interface ( shadowline ). Is this something that will be upgraded in this release or are you just going for more stable and clean roms?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] janneman22:
Now i'm using Shadowline Series, but dutch is better:p:D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] elfpenner:
I had problems with playing Youtube, after the video had played, the screen stays black(grey), and my phone did not respond anymore.

Is that because of the new 2.18 driver?

Someone else also have this problem?

BTW: in Cheetah 2.1 (driver 2.16) I did not had the problem.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] joshoon:
Heyz, I just installed this ROM, and I have a question.

Is it right that the homescreen is extremely slow?

The animations are really slow.

Also I am not able to login at the Twitter tab, it gives an error all the time.

Hope someone gots an solution.

Greetz,

Joshoon
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
I don't have the two problems you refer to, did you perform a hard-reset after flashing? Also a soft reset after first boot sometimes helps.

For Twitter --> did you apply the right connection settings for your provider?

Don't know about other but when you're connected by Vodafone you'll have to disable proxy.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Danzka:
I'm loving Cheetah 3.2R its fast and stable. Everything is running great... I'm gonna stay on this rom for a long time ;) only if there are very big changes in the next Cheetah version. The only bug I have found is that sometimes when I make a call the phone reboots its self :s. I don't know if its cheetah or a software fault.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Well Cheetah will be set back to OS Version 21892 which has proven to be more stable and since tweaked by ljankok and me also the fastest choice.

But i must note i didn't have any hangups or reboots on 3.2R Nld.

However this week there will be another set of roms both TopaT and Cheetah will be back to OS version 21892 and will be using Topaz Manila.

And now for some bad news :o

I ordered myself a HTC LEO today, when it arrives ( wednesday or thursday ) i will send my Topaz to HTC for repair. So bottom line is the next two roms will be last for a while :rolleyes:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] grox:
OK, nice phone.....hope you will update these roms also from time to time. Or will you start with the LEO?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Actually i`m having some issues with the screen on my Topaz and i have to send it in for service, that`s why i ordered a Leo. If it wasn't for the screen issue i would have kept my Topaz for sure.

When my Topaz returns from service i will keep the TopaT and Cheetah alive, but it will take some time before it returns i`m affraid. Don't know what to believe but i've read some people had to wait several weeks before their device returned.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bandis710:
:) I am also saying goodbye to my topaz as main device .. I will get my HTC Legend this week and that will be my primary device...BTW nobody agreed on the bug I mentioned in topat 1.4 with mijn lokatie , so I guess the problem was not in the rom but on m y side ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Ok in the next TopaT release all your issues should be history.......

- Phone doesn't wake on receiving a text message

- Keyboard default set to Dutch T9

- The 4 row icons on home tab is a thing you can get by installing Cookies Hometab

- As for the speed, TopaT 1.5 Nld will contain the same tweaked OS Version as used for the test version.

Don't know what's causing this issue, don't have it on Vodafone / Simyo / Telfort, i can only hope it will be solved in TopaT 1.5 Nld

Keep me posted on the repair and the time it takes them to get you device back to you. I have to send mine in as soon as my Leo arrives.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Well goodbye Windows Mobile and hello Android for you :rolleyes:

I'll stick with WM for now ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Bandis710:
:) Yeah, I am up for something completely different .. I will however keep my Topaz for work ...So I am nor saying goodbye to winmo completely .. I am pretty sure that topat or cheetah will the rom on my TD2 :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Wartexx:
Damn :( got the same thing with my topaz, but i fixed the screen myself( put in a new digitizer) still working after 4 months :D , much faster then sending it to HTC and cheaper ( as my keys did puncture the top layer a little :$)

Good luck with yours, loved your roms!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Well i figured the have to give me some service at HTC :D

No need to and don't want to repair it myself. I got an offer for a new device so i figured get me a Leo so i can send my Topaz in for repair
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gremmmy:
@patensas

I dont know what the reason is why you send your DM2 to htc, but mine is that my covery of my battery doesnt fit well @ the place where the styler is in the case. The cover doesn't fit correct on the case.

I got it back the first time i sended it, i had it back at the third day. But they didnt even took the time to check the problem i have, they just gave me a new cover for my accu :confused:

So after a nice phone call, they called the driver to pick up my dm2 again :P
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] patensas:
Mine has some issues with my screen, the backlight sometimes refuses doing it's job. tapping it and knocking on my device does the job most of the time but it's annoying :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] gremmmy:

Well i make posted when i got my dm2 back again :), atm i have to call with my palm 500 -.- So im realy hoping they quick as they where first time....

I am amazed that you keep putting out great roms on a regular basis. Going to flash Cheetah 3.3 and TopaT today and tell you what I think!

Indeed It would be nice if you could post some cabs to some programs that are missing in Cheetah.

asking again. Is it possible to enlarge the fonts. They are sreally to small for me. If so how. I can't find anything about it. Not how to make 'em bigger.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] grox:
I flashed to 3.3R, but i cannot install CAB files. f.e. TT7 I cannot install. Can it has something to do with long file names?

I'll flash to TopaT

FOUND IT: the extension CAB must be not kapital, so .cab
