hi, no plan for Max on 2.1 although I can quickly make one if you really need it. however, do give this Cookie 1.7 a try, it's so much better now and almost fully customizable! try first and let me know if you still want Max manila. :)

Great rom. Fast and smooth!

I'm wondering if there's a way to personalise home screen tabs?

The usual 'personalize home screen tabs' is no londer there.

Thanks for the great rom ! :D

edit: Found it in settings tab..

MaesusLeo 23557 v2.1 Cookie 1.7 WWE - Issues [-_-]

Well, it's been nearly 12 hours on v2.1 and it's better, but with some issues/problems: :(

1. Trying to rearrange 'Home screen tabs' does not work. It shows the order you have chosen, but when it saves and relaunches HTC Sense, it's hasn't changed.

2. Making calls has been come almost unusable! Making a call seems OK, but trying hanging up either with the software or hardware button and neither work! Eventually it will hang up, but messing around a hell of a lot and the screen becomes a total mess!

3. Weather animation on the home screen doesn't seem to work any more, no matter what CoOkie setup you have.

4. I can't synchronize my phone using USB or BlueTooth with Outlook 2007 via W7x64 at all.
​

Hopefully the above issues I'm having isn't difficult to sort out and possibly just 'me'? Will wait to hear from the rest of you, before re-flashing (again) just incase it was a bad flash for whatever reason. I see that CoOkie 1.7.1 is out and hopefully will install over the currently included v1.7 as this looks like it will address some of the issues I'm experiencing... but '2. Making calls...' is serious pain/problem :(

A side from the above, the icons are a huge improvement and much easier to see what you are doing now, but of course being me, I prefer 'Metro' and hopefully I can install this myself and not annoy Maesus on this one everytime, as I'm probably the only one here who really likes it over anything else currently. Will try whilst re-flashing, again and again :rolleyes:

@Maesus - Would love to help with a decent place for you to upload your tasty cooked ROM's too, but... don't think I can? :o
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] s_john8686:
Hi, I just checked the few points you raise (not that I wish to answer on behalf on Maesus :)

1. it works for me, I could remove music, footprint and document tab and re-arranged stock tab to right in front of internet tab. :)

2. did not test

3. it works for me, why not you try to add the "weather on/off" switch at quicklink, then toggle it. worked for me :)

4. I use exchange settings, so I don't need to connect USB or bluetooth to sync :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
Just have a feel that SYS 23557/23559 isn't as stable as 23549.

1. Arrange Homescreen tab bug is most likely coming from "Call History" tab. Please try this: Disable this "Call History" tab, "Done" to save the settings. Restart phone. The next boot up you should have Manila running without "Call History". Then try to swap around your tabs see if it works.

ps: My next build will most probably set "Call History" disabled by default.

2. I don't know what is causing this but I found a problem with phone dialer. At the first time phone dialer is launched, if I hit the "Back" softkey, the phone dialer will be doing something for long (you feel like it has freezed but it's doing something) but for nothing :confused:

3. s_john8686 answers well. :D

4. This is a painful one. I feel it's more to do with the Windows 7 more than the phone. Please try with uncheck "Enable faster data" for ActiveSync. It might help.

I am trying with Radio 2.10 and see if it helps.

Warning: Backup your data first. After flashing Radio 2.10, the ROM must be reflashed and reinstalled.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] myth1001:
Making/receiving calls is fine for me.

Rearranging tabs isn't a problem for me.

To enable/disable weather animation, a soft reset is required for it to work. :confused:

There's something that i noticed. Everytime I disabled HTC sense. I can't enable it again.

It will show Launching HTC Sense... and the home screen will still be blank after a long wait. It will only be enabled after a soft reset.

I'm not sure if it's something that I installed, or some conflicts due to CHT, or the ROM. :rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] volcane:
1. Can disable tabs, but rearrange not working. I try relaunch the sense no effect. I try soft reset, also no effect.

2. No issue on call, both soft and hard buttons works.

3. Need to soft reset to to disable the weather animation.

4. did not test

yeah I am using the CHT ROM

MaesusLeo 23557 v2.1 Cookie 1.7.1 (Upgraded) WWE - Issues SORTED! \[^_^]/

Thank you... myth1001, s_john8686 and of course Maesus! All you have suggested helped and I'm running sweet... well three out of four! [^_^]

To help resolved this issue fully, I decided to fully re-installed 'MaesusLeo 23557 v2.1 Cookie 1.7.0 WWE and upgrade both CoOkie and CHTeditor to 1.7.1

The only issue I have, which hasn't happened before, is Synchronizing with W7x64 either by USB (Fast or Standard connection) or BlueTooth... I know, W7 is probably the issue, but why now... as it hasn't happened before, in nearly a year of using W7 (except for the W7 beta days of course). It's a problem for me and no idea what to do next... and have NO idea about 'Exchange servers' let alone the ability to afford it. It's a same 'M$ MyPhone' can't be installed on Windows, as this could be alternative route and better too... although "M$ MyPhone' keeps giving issues of duplicates all over and not actually recognizing it too! Any other suggestions?! (-_-)

OK... so I disabled: 'Call History Tab', 'Music Tab' (as it's crap) and 'Reader Tab' (as like default)... and all worked as it should be! AND there's more... the issue I had with the 'Phone Pad Dialer' thingy has now gone away and NO problems at all now! Strange, but happily true. [^_^]

The issue with the weather animation and a few other bits like CoOkie Lock Screen etc, all seems fine now and definitely not a Maesus ROM issue, as once I upgraded to 1.7.1 which suggests it deals with all these known issues, all is working perfectly! Sweet!! [^_^]

Will give Radio 2.10 a try later in the afternoon, once I know this has been working for at least 12 hours without charging once and if that lasts until Tuesday afternoon, I'll keep it with 2.10 for our short trip to Barcelona (providing aircraft flights are allowed again)... fingers, toes and USB cables crossed for ROM, Radio and flights! \[O_o]/

Thanks all... I'm a happy v2.1 ROM user... because Maesus ROM's rule!!! \[^_^]/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
found the root cause

I think I found the root cause of why the Home Tabs cannot be swapped. The problem appeared when I converted CHT1.7 cab to EXT package, and cooked into my ROM. The file - ManilaFull.xml supposed to be rewritable.

Looks like CHT is now 1.7.1, you can try to install the cab directly to my ROM and it should work (and make ManilaFull.xml writable). I will take extra caution when I update my ROM with CHT1.7.1.

Hey Guys,

Been nearly a day since I flashed to V2.1. I haven't been having any problems that the guys above have posted. I have Windows 7 and its working fine with Outlook 2007 and ActiveSync.

The new Radio 2.10 is working fine with this ROM as far I know. It seem to improve the battery life and calls etc.

Will post again if any problems come up

Aaron :) MeasusLeo is the BEST ROM I have used so far!!:cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bigtom5000:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] TECHNOLLIC:
Hey Maesus does your 2.1 rom have radio 2.10 included in it?

I usually flash with (Task29 + Radio 2.08) to clean up the phone & install radio 2.08 at the same time. Then I install your rom. Am I doing some thing wrong? Let me know.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fazz:
MaesusLeo 23557 v2.1 WWE with upgraded Cookie 1.7.1... about to hit Radio 2.10.50.08

Thanks my good man, it seemed to have fixed the issue and thought it was this too (whilst looking at random Unknown USB devices for some odd reason)... however my issue though is more complicated, as my Logitech G13 is what is causing the driver not to fully install... no idea, but after I disconnected the G13, it was fine.

Long story short, as I'm now not travelling due to the majority of flights still being cancelled, we doing a major re-fit in the studio and will have a newer system to work on, so will have a fresh install on W7x64 too. Fingers crossed all is smooth... and looking forward to a 16Gb DDR3 system!

Oh and as the v2.1 is working pretty well (even though CoOkie 1.7.1 crashed twice today whilst using it and the Phone Pad Dialer is still a bit slow at times), I'm happier and will update my Radio to 2.10.50.08 in just a mo, before shutting down pretty much everything here for the next few days.

See you all on the flip sieeeede! \[^_^]/ ...Maesus, you da'man!!! \(^_^)/

Battery drain??

Hi Maesus, I flashed to 2.1 last night. It is a great ROM. However, this morning I noticed that my battery life seemed to have drained a lot. Never had the problem with v2.0 or v.1.9. Since morning till now ( 6 hrs ), mostly on standby, no calls, my battery has gone down to 45%. I have had the same things for v1.9 and v2.0 and never had the problem with battery life.

Anyone knows what might be the cause?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
Yes I can confirm this bug. I'll look into it.

That's very good for you. :D Keep using until you find some bugs or something that doesn't run as the way you think it should be, please let me know.

Copy the file ManilaFull.xml from \Windows\ to \Storage Card\ and copy it back to \Windows\ again. This will make the file write-able. Then restart your phone. Your tabs should be rearrangable.

No, I don't include any Radio. After you finish Task29, then install Radio 2.10, only then install my ROM.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
I am cooking in CHT 1.7.1 and fix somemore bugs. Looks like there will be another release soon. This week is busy - busy updating ROM. :D I know most of you get frustrated, keep on backup/reset/flashing etc and still not get a stable ROM to run. I am trying here to nail down everything I can...

hi pgoh63, I noticed that, but still don't know the root cause. I am trying some settings differently and hope it will get back the battery life.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Aaron4048:
Hey Guys,

With the issue about the battery life, after a ROM flash it can take about 4 or so charges to get the best battery life so don't give up on it yet. Also, you should always do a hard reset after a ROM flash to make sure it's a clean ROM from the start. :rolleyes:

Hope this helps,

Aaron :cool:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Aaron4048:
Hey Maesus,

Are going to use the new system build 23563 in your next release by any chance? :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] myth1001:
My phone was in standby throughout the night (9hours) in GSM mode. 3email accounts (update intervals 30min, 1hour, 4hours) , twitter updates every 4hours and weather update every 1hour. and it only when down by 9% ( 1%perhour)

There are a few things that i switched off though, i.e proximity locker and change screen.

The battery life is still alright for me. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fazz:
MaesusLeo 23557 v2.1 WWE with upgraded Cookie 1.7.1 and Radio 2.10.50.08

Ditto, but all e-mail account update every 5 minutes and everything else set to it's quickest update time, such as Weather, Twitter, Facebook, Google Maps, GPS and anything else... and all great so far except the minor odd slow down with the Phone Dialer, but maybe because I have a contact list of 400?! CoOkie crashed 3 times on my first install and once yesterday, but nothing too serious and been good for the past 12 hours.

I too also have the 'last' Skype available for Windows Mobile and have it installed, but seeing as few of my friends use it (living in the year 2000 still) and make more communications via Facebook, Twitter, Mobile e-mailing and good old SMS'ing.

Side thing: One thing I really want, is to able to properly lock my device, which seems to have disappeared in any current ROM release for a very long time... so sad really!

...and what I mean by properly, normal Pin 2 when you bootup for phone usage (which is working OK-ish), but Pin 1 lock after a set time, say every 6 hours if unused and will also allow me to have auto lock via Pin 1, when my BlueTooth signal drops from my BlueTooth watch. the watch part though isn't so important, but auto locking after 3, 6, 9 hours would be much better.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kramerty88:
Maesus,

I've found an issue. CleanRam cleans the CHTlockscreen from Co0kie's hometab. So when I use CleanRam I have no lock on the phone, the only solution is to reboot the phone.

Do you know how to exclude Co0kie's lockscreen from cleanram?

Second is that both my email and text messages neither ring nor vibrate. Anyone has a clue why?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
I haven't got SYS 23563 yet. I will look for it... I use MMTaskManager instead of ArkSwitch. Swype is not compatible with WWE+CHS IME. 12 button action screen? hmm... I personally don't like it, no particular reason. Most likely I won't put it in... sorry. :confused:

Maybe it's really proximity locker and changescreen that sucks battery life.

OK, will add that in the exclude list for next release. Thanks for that. Hmm... since the CHTLockscreen is not always stay resident, to add it in the exclusion list will need to do direct Registry edit.

hi frater,

I don't have wget and can't get the Skype cab link you gave me. I think Skype is popular enough to be integrated into the ROM release. I'll do that in next release once I get a good cab. Thank! :)

Please try again. (the wget filter is a thing I did on purpose)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kramerty88:
1) Worked, figured that out too. Thanks anyway.

2) Worked out what the problem was. It had nothing to do with sound, but when I change the Manila language in BsB tweaks the sound for text messages stops working. Can't find a reason why, but I double checked it and this is the problem.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Napoli8024:
Nice ROM. This is the first cooked ROM I ever use. Pretty fast.

several problems I've got so far.

1. I used Pimbackup to restore all my data after flash the ROM. but, as long as I restored messeges including SMS and mails, the phone app not respond after 2 or 3 calls. No ringing with incoming calls, or can't hang up a call either using soft or hardware key. So weired.

Finally, with no old messeges and mails, it's fine.

2. preinstalled msn messenger can't run. don't know why. I downloaded another one from marketplace and installed, works.

3. Proximity Locker seems don't work on my phone. whenever it's running, the screen keeps on and off with about 5 minutes period. can I just remove the app from wm startup sequence? I have to switch it off manuallly after each reboot.

Anyway, great work. I like it very much. Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
Your wish is granted. V2.2 uploading now... :D

1. It will take a while for HD2 to re-cache those restored messages, a long while if you have lots of backup messages. Let your phone idle for 30 mins or more after you restore from PIM Backup. Restart your phone and it should respond better. However, there is a bug with Manila in V2.1 that may cause the phone not responding. I fixed it on V2.2.

2. known bug, fixed in V2.2.

3. yes, use Total Commander or Resco File Manager goto \windows\startup\, remove Hd2ProximityScreenOff.lnk
