Battery drainage

Hi dear Artemis Family,

Artemis V70 is absolutely more battery hungry than all previous versions. Normally, with the usage of Advanced Config as my favorite battery saving program, my overnight drainage was max 4%, now is minimally 8%, so a doubling in battery comsumption. Thinking that my SD Card was the problem, I formatted it with no result in battery usage. Advanced Config is acting normally, also on other fields than battery saving, so that can be excluded as a cause.

Besides the battery hunger, V70 is again a true masterpiece!!!

very best regards, Kuzibri

Performance V70

Hello kuzibri,

I can accept a higher battery consumption in case there is a better performance :p

Same here, it's possible to create a shortcut to htc sms but it means losing the notification widget... don't know if can live without, I'm thinking to revert to a previous Artemis :( what a pity

Hope sir Sternas can find a fix
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mikempower:
At the moment, in standby i DON'T have battery drain more than v66. I used very deeply this rom but it seems the same of the previous version. I'll make more test to be sure about it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Chozan:
You can install this cab if you need Chinese Input and Display. It works well for me in V70.

1. Install the cab.

2. Set your area in Regional Settings.

3. Soft reset.

BTW, thanks Sir Sternas for the great V70 rom. It's stable and fast.

Battery

Hello kuzibri,

I do not understand what is problem with a higher battery consumption.

Me as a heavy duty Artemis user (eMail, stock, weather, twitter, calls, SMS, ...) have always a connection to a power source.

Also in my field tests have a mobile power source.

So what is the problem?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mikempower:
Also with v66 and now with v70 i've only blue tooth on, but for my usage I haven't noticed a major battery drain in standby maybe something more using and making a call, but is difficult to understand because i stay on call almost one hour at the day..

Hello mikempower,

my last post was not about to build a new ROM in a very short time.

I just repost a quote from Sir Sternas and ask about further information.

But we will see ... I flashed Artemis V70 yesterday night, so I am not that kind of person who needs every day a new ROM ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Wanchope2k:
I also dont notice a difference in the battery drain with v70 compare to v66.

I am a very light user & get about 3 days without a charge with v70 (the same as I got with v66).

99% german

Hello hein_bld_hb,

it is 99% german ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi, as leherbuch already stated, the German ROM is already 99% German. Why are people always complaining that it's not 100%????? Our great friend does his stinking best to give us the best ROM's in our own language with a very few faults in the translation. Why worry about that? Be glad that our great friend releases his ROM's in so many language versions, I'm really disappointed and absolutely not glad with these kind of posts.

Let me also be clear, this is not personally meant but in general. My personal opinion about such complaints of minor language faults in Artemis ROM's.is that it does in no way right to the magnificent work of Sir Sternas :Whenever these translation problems bother you too much, PM our great friend to send you the language XML file and you can adjust it yourself. That is IMHO the only way to make Artemis ROM as perfect as can be.

just finished restoring all my stuff.

I have two matters:

-after testing some lockcscreens and restoring the stock one, the slider is invisible, see attached pic, it appears only when pressed.

all lockscreen files looks at their place, can't understand what's the matter.

could someone help, please?

-when set the phone to airplane mode and restart, it still asks the PIN code .

can't remember if the issue was there after flashing the ROM, or started later, any way to get the usual behaviour? in airplane mode the phone should not ask the PIN after a restart, but keep staying in airplane mode..

EDIT: restart in Airplane mode now works, can't say how I fixed it.

After installing/uninstalling various Lock screens, slider is back

English vs. German

Hello kuzibri and hein_bld_hb,

I have to tell a stroy about German and English programms.

Some time ago I tested various apps to have a lockscreen during call. (Finally I found the best for me).

So I also tested the app "Pocketshield". I read the english readme file on the website and I installed the app in german.

BUT for me it was strange to handle with words like "Sperrschirm" instead of "lockscreen".

In the end it is sometimes better to have some words in english to have an idea what is the exact expression ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
+1 for that my dear friend.

very best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mikempower:
How many problems for nothing... It has been asked a translation version of some application (if possible) for me it's not a problem but for others maybe it could be... Why being disappointed by a simple question? I haven't read nothing against mr. Sternas and his work, only an "if it possible"... Be calm please this is not a crime against Pope...

On a completely unrelated note, I drove home to Holland last week from Lithuania and decided to try to completely rely on Copilot GPS for navigation. A long story short, I will never leave home without a paper map again :) Bought one for every country I passed on the way back.

Off topic reply: never rely entirely on navigation software, either the software is outdated or the software is up to date, but the actual situation changed after the update. Many accidents have already happened to persons relying on their navigation software. So, be carefull my dear friend.

Hello All.

First, thanks for your great job sternas.

I am the only one that have issues with this release (FR) ?

For exemple :

- go to parameters of messages (sms) and after a few second it closes itself...

- Viewing an image, i decide to send it by mms, but the interface is like sending a mail.

- creating a mms, if i try to take a picture, the camera closes as it opens...

I tried hard resets, task 29, resinstall official stock rom..... but it is always the same result. any idea ?

Hi guys, when using Google Maps or Bing App the search using voice command is NOT working. In Google Maps for example I get a hint like "Could not connect to the voice search".

I'm not really sure, but I think that work in my previous version V61. Has anyone else got this problem or does anyone know what I have to do to get it working? The microphone should be OK, as "Voice Speed Dial" is working like a charm.

I have the same problem with v70.

It says searching.. & then "cannot connect to voice search".

I cant remember when i last used this in another version though....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi my dear friends,

Voice Speed Dial is indeed working like a charm. Regarding Bing and Google, the "native" speaking language is English, at least on my device. Whenever I speak in a command in these two programs, I get the message: could not find the location - check your connection, while 3g and WiFi are on. Strange!!!!

BTW, Google does not even open the voice command window :confused:

If I use Google voice command in Android Jelly Bean, it works flawlesly.

Hello, I come back on a trouble I met few days ago about what I was tinking as a bug with on/off button.. In fact it is not a hardware problem but something connected with data. I forget to disable it. Since I do it, everything goes right...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sternas:
Thanks Sir

because I start to search the ROM DEV files...

Now, guys we must discuss about WEH vs WM

ver 70.0 has totally new OS

only 10% of the ROM files are from WM6.5.5 for Phone functionality reasons...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] huismeester:
Actually that is true Sir it depends on what you're used ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] KingTutt_junior:
You must do a double klick on the green button to get the command window open.

What kind of discussion do you want? Which one is better? I think one al versions will be some smaller Bugs but as long as they are only small it doesn't matter.

Maybe the battery consumption is a little bit higher with WEH (as others mentioned before) and the voice command is not working but that problems are not big enough that I will flash another ROM again (to much work for customizing). For me V70 is good enough for daily use, that is the most important thing. Thank you! :good:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi my dearest friend,

IMHO, there iis no discussion needed at all. Just as you perfected WinMO 6.5.5, you can also try/go on to perfectionate WEH. It's what King Tutt also mentioned, the little problems in V70, like more battery drainage and not working voice commands, are for me also no reasons to go back to WM. So, as far as I'm personally concerned, you go your way with V70 and WEH and not go back to WM.

many warm greetings, your dearest friend Kuzibri

Some issues on SPB MOBILE SHELL, and with custom lockscreeens .

My RSS reader channel search through Bing (the only available by default, don't know how to add more ) does not work, got to look for channels using opera browser.

It's nice to go forward with the OS, the matter is if you go too much forward and all the rest (applications) remain behind.

A brand new OS is good but useless if can't run our old beloved wm softwares, hope this will not happen to Artemis
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi my dear friend,

I'm not so afraid that the old WM apps will not run on WEH. I have some very, very old apps on my HD2 that still are working perfectly on WEH.The oldest WM app I use is now 3,5 years old and still working like a charm.

very best regards, Kuzibri
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jjollyroger:
Doh! Since I use my hd2 for all but a phone did not notice before..

Using SPB MS sms widget you get the standard wm sms page in threaded mode, but (at least on my device) is able to receive sms and not to send.

I tried to overlap the widget with a transparent shortcut (to keep spb notifications) to htc messages but the page self closes after 5 seconds when I try to write a new sms , it does not close if I stay in the arrived/conversation page.

I think it's a conflict matter, at the moment I solved the issue removing the sms widget , restarting the phone and linking again only the htc messages page.

Unfortunately the only notifications for sms are the little icon on taskbar and the blibking led

I still have a couple of ppc 2003 apps working, but as you can read the matters come from most recent stuff as Mobile shell, just hope it won't get worst on next upgrading
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kuzibri:
Hi my dear friend,

AFAIK, SPB Mobile Shell and Artemis always had problems with each other, so IMHO this is not a matter of WEH versus WinMo, but just an incompatibility/problem between SPB and Artemis since ages.Remember all the posts of how to get SPB working on Artemis and how to have them both work together. ;)

Windows Mobile vs. WEH 6.5.3

Hello Artemis Family,

yes, I can confirm, that there are some issues with lockscreens.

I personally had this problem with S2U2 but I found another app which is written for Windows Mobile 2003 and this app runs perfectly (@kuzibri ... older apps ;) )

I think we all can live with the "problems" of WEH ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] viewsonic210:
I dont agree!! Besides of all other problems (battery drain....), the SMS-Problem with SPB Mobile Shell is urgent for me. And SPB worked for me from the beginning (v3x) flawlessly. Not only that, I realized also that with the old-threaded-style SMS-App I cannot send messages nor is a message marked as read when clicked. Only with HTC-Messaging.exe its working, but then no widget :(

Again: This is NOT a problem according with SPB-App but with Artemis ROM v70/WEH. I "prooved" that with other apps like "flexmail" and "mailaccountrepair.exe".

Again II: Please Sir Sternas, would you be so kind and fix this problem, otherwise I will be forced to stick to v66 or move to AndroidNAND.

Another question: Why is the build-version of WEH lower than WM 6.5.5/Artemis v66?

Hello viewsonic210,

I understand our problems with SPB Shell.

I can not comment on these SMS problems because I use only the stock Artemis SMS app. There are no problems

I think Sir Sternas is not able to test every programm ... so I would wait for the next release or leave SPB app or roll back to V66

What are your main reasons to use such a shell?

Shells

Hello jjollyroger,

as I said I can not comment / confirm the advantages of SPB Shell because I only use Artemis stock.

For me it is not important to have such eye-catching apps. For me it must work! (eMail, call, SMS, GPS, twitter, ...)

That is also the point why I do not switch to Android. Why I need more than one Homescreen?

.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] viewsonic210:
Do you mean by "Artmis stock SMS" = "HTC Messaging" or the old-style-WM-SMS-App? I mean the second. SPB Mobile Shell does NOT(!) replace the SMS-App !! It uses the one from HTC. But as of v70 it uses now the old one from WM....and this is NOT fingerfriendly. And it doesnt work as expected.

"Eye-catching" is not important for me too...thats because I disabled HTC-Sense and used SPB. Its faster and all in one or more Homescreens instead of switching the tabs. And you are not forced to use more than one Homescreen, but you have the option to do so.....on HTC-Sense/WM-Classic you dont even have the freedom to choose.

I am happy that Sir Sternas is willing to have a look at these problems :)

Yeah..I know...its the same style from the beginning of HTC in 2010 (before Artemis). And I want to use it (from SPB)....but dont want Sense.

Version 71

Hi Everybody,

I have been looking forward for the new Artemis ROM for month now! Unfortunately I have not yet had the time to try it out....until now :)

But since you have all been so busy testing I was wondering, wether Sir Sternas is going to release a new version anytime soon???

It always takes half a day for me to install and configure all my programs...so it would be really sad if I spent the time now and next week a new version comes out :(

So basically my question is: Can you make a guess, when version 71 will be released?

That would be great!!!

Thanks a lot!
