Version 1.3 (Test Version) just released

hi all,

Just uploaded Version 1.3 test version, based on SYS 23529. Mainly is to test out Manila 2.5.20121225.0 and mod it to feature eReader, Doc browser and footprints. Everything seems work fine. Also compatible with Max Manila. No additional features found. If you're happy with Version 1.2, you can skip this build.

Also tried out 25005 but it's not as stable as 24xxx or 23529. I skipped 282xx until the dialer issue is confirmed fixed (has it fixed already?) Another reason is I have slow, slow internet connection. Uploading takes too long time. :(

I'm going to do some clean up - and might release an interim test version if it's stable enough:

- removing duplicate apps support same function - RESET

- add bottom slide Lockscreen mod;

- Cookie mod instead of MaxManila ... hmm :rolleyes:

- improve installation time, but how? :confused:

- "dummy" encfilt.dll to fake encryption... hmm :rolleyes: this might fix the "blackscreen" freeze...

i am eagerly waiting for this new release as when i mentioned for me to do my own customization, i was thinking of cookie instead of maxManila...ahha...:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ccw523:
new to this rom....dumb question: what is the difference between the Max and the WWE+CHS versions? can you read and input chinese with the Max version?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
V1.9 Cookie are up too!

ccw523, all my ROMs, Max, Cookie and Cleaned editions, including V1.9 are WWE+CHS (World Wide English with Chinese Simplified Input) with the only exception of "V1.8 WWE-only" edition, which only has WWE IME.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] MaRaHoX:
Gr8, going to flash immediately ;-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kramerty88:
First thing I notice with 1.9 is when I remove proximity from startup list is that Sense crashes? I flashed it again to remove prox once more and exactly the same.

Didn't have this with all previous rom (also removed proximity, because i don't like it), but it keeps crashing by just removing it from windows startup list. Even after soft and hard resets Sense won't start.

Any other way to remove proximity?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ccw523:
Thanks....try it now.....
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
This is new to me. I tried with mine but it worked and didn't crash Sense.

Can you try start\tools\tweaks\ hit Proximity Locker once so it will disable it. Then only goto StartUp to remove it. Are you using Resco File Explorer to remove it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kramerty88:
I did shut it down before removing it and yes using resco explorer.

I could try to remove it with standard file explorer.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] s_john8686:
I use the "hard" way, edit the rom files, remove the proximity.lnk shortcut file and the necessary files for the proximity programs to run. No problem ;)

I use such method to remove many things too, some large files and large picture :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tongben:
I believe Max version is using the new Sense 2.6 beta which allows configuration of the main Sense page (wall paper/calendar count/clock type/incoming items/shortcut counts). It is worth to have.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jchoong:
Maesus,

V1.9 is another excellent ROM; beautiful icons too. However, just like V1.8, there are some preinstalled programs that cannot be run, eg Nimbuzz and CleanRam. Error message - The file "Nimbuzz" cqannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certficate, or one of its components cannot be found...

(Edit: Added: I also get the feeling that this V1.9 is heavy on battery; I'm on Radio 2.08.50.08_2)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
If those tools are not working out-of-the-flash, you need a Task 29 / MTTY. I am still using V1.9 and my only auto-install apps are Resco Explorer. It could be other conflicts with the apps u installed at the later stage.

The configuration page belongs to Max, not Sense 2.6 beta.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jchoong:
Maesus, thanks for the prompt response. Just to clarify, nowadays I do a Task29 and then it is followed with a ROM flash. So, presumably this cleans up everything before the flash.

Also, before I install any of my software, I check the Start Menu to see what have been preinstalled. Nimbuzz (the icon anyway) is already present, so I don't install my copy of Nimbuzz. Am puzzled indeed. Thanks anyway.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
are you using radio 2.08 too? strange problem that is. ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] RRibeiro:
I just updated my HSPL to the new 2.08 and now all I can say is WWOOOOOOOOWWWW.

Your ROM realy flys with radio 2.08 and HSPL 2.08.

I didn't found 0ne single bug, it's just excelent.

The only thing I don't like is teh "Proximity sensor", but I disabled it with SKTools.

MaesusLeo v1.9 with Cookie = 3/3 ...so far!

Just a quick message from me to say v1.9 with Cookie has been brilliant so far! It's nearly 24 hours later since I've installed it and already feel that's better than previous ROM's (of course) and battery life seems even better some how too! I haven't ventured into my usual BlueTooth and WiFi setup, which will be tomorrow (Wednesday) so will update then.

Off topic: I'm still looking for decent Audio/Music playback software that works on our beloved HTC HD2's as everything seems average and not fully compatible. Any ideas?

Thanks again Maesus... you da'man... you da'chef! [^_^]
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] frater:
The Maesus 1.9 broke a record.

It's been on my HTC for 3 days... No other ROM has been on it for that long...

Good show!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
I still can't find a good, reliable auto-lock + suspend apps. Proximity sensor is something very close when work with Max Manila. Do you know or use one?

You are very welcome! :D

wow, that's a record! :eek:

I just flashed HSPL 2.08 (from HSPL 1.42) and it killed my existing ROM. Have to reflash the whole ROM again. So DON'T DO THAT! :D

Other than getting ICR into Version 2.0, I found very little reason to update. Some apps like MMTaskManager, CleanRAM has newer versions, but the old ones are still working flawlessly.

Well, there won't be a Version 2.0 for quite some time I think, until a new SYS comes out. It's kind of very low activities these few days.

Let me know if you want something else (to be in my ROM).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] RRibeiro:
I use the standard lock from the 6.5.5 rom and for me it's good.

When I said I updated my HSPL, I forgot to say that I did it before I flashed your ROM.

Anyone had success flashing the MaesusLeo V1.9 with the latest 2.09 radio?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5900606

Based on the above thread... it yields better voice quality and battery... :)

Not sure why the flashing doesn't start... it keeps stuck at 0%.... on my HD2 device...

Within 10 mins my battery Drained 10%!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] RRibeiro:
My battery with this ROM is excelent, at least 2 days with medium use.

And I have lots os stuff installed.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
Hmm you are the only one so far feedback about the icons being ugly. :) Most others including myself think the icons I put in are beautiful. I will update the icons when I get a complete (or almost) set. It depends whether I have the time to include more changes to a new release or not.

Sorry, my ROM does NOT support Radio 2.09. Radio 2.09 belongs to OEM 1.xx but I am using OEM 2.xx on my ROM. There is still no workaround for that. :(Yeah, every new Radio release, there are always somebody saying it's better, and somebody but less would also say it's worse. :cool:

Send/Receive for email doesn't work when phone is connected by usb to pc...???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bbezja1:
I like my icons so that when i look at it i dont need also to read the name to understand what is it supposed to be. icons with glowing and shading and too much colors, details and happenings are fail.

take weird icons like:

Remote Desktop Mobile (fugly as hell!), Home(Blue monitor with blue picture on blue background - WTF?!), Gps (what is that? square something with star system rotating? is that a skygazer? what does that tell me?), Tools (a square something with something that makes me think of parts right away BUT there is also a film strip... WHYYY?! and something else barely visible in the back... WHYYY?!)

and compare it to other normal/simpler icons like Text (messaging), Messenger, Skyfire, YouTube etc

Ok, yes, simple icons might not be that "cool" and high detailed and glowing and wannabe something special but they do what they are intended for: tell you in one 10x10 picture what you get with opening it.

i downloaded your rom just for max manilla and tried it. my battery drains too fast, phone wakes up for no reason, i have bluetooth icons and wifi icons ON in notifications bar at all times altho theyre both turned OFF, i also want full landscape capability (for text and email messaging) which your ROM cant provide at the moment so i will replace it with something else until further notice.

also please tell me why would this phone need to clean ram? after a week of crazy use and testing it only freed 60M of ram and i still had 150MB free. WHYYYY?!

dont get me wrong, i feel real respect for you, because you made this ROM, brought it to the people and it works. but like everything else in computer science.. it works for some and it doesnt work for others.

EDIT: also note that i cant wait for WM7 cause at the moment it seems like a perfect mobile OS for me, so perhaps i just cant be satisfied with WM6.5
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Digitalman:
First of all i want to say that the V1.9 rom is perfect! I have only one strange problem. When i want to sync my e-mail acounts it only works with wifi powered on. If i uses my data connection from my provider (Vodafone) it gave a connection error. But internet browsing is working okay with vodafone so internet connection isn't the problem. Also my e-mail settings should be okay otherwise i did't receive e-mail with wifi enabled. So i'am lost. Can this be a problem with the ROM?

Can somebody tell if they had the same results with gprs or 3G connection and e-mail syncing problem?

To be clear, my phone is not connected via usb when i have these problems.

Any sugestions?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
Hi Digitalman,

unfortunately I have no chance to test this configuration because I don't have a "free" data plan. :D One you may try is to kill ActiveSync first, then start your data connection, then only turn back on ActiveSync.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Digitalman:
@maesus: Thanks for the tip, but i figure it out now. No bug in your rom, but i had to use smtp server for vodafone instead of my home acount smtp. So thats why it worked on wifi and not on mobile data plan.

But how can you use both wifi or mobile without changing everytime smtp server adres. Only thing i can think of is to create two email acounts with different smtp settings. But i think there must be a much more elegant solution?

Anyone?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] adioph:
thanks for the great ROM, I used this for almost 2 weeks without problem, battery life last for 2 days.

btw, is it possible to make DSP by Xetra to work in HD2?

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
I am not sure how it is done, but I doubt WM6.5's server settings can do such smart auto-change accounts. It may be doable though.

Wow, 2 weeks! That's a new record! :D

What is DSP by Xetra?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Klaus1960:
Hi - you live in one of the most beautiful countries in the world! Don't let little phone stuff get you down!! Think of Lake Bled! Ah, what happy memories!!!!!

I don't have any of these problems - this is the fastest ROM I have tried. Why not try changing your radio. As for the icons, you could change them (I have changed the clock one)... I did not like them either (preferred Smaberg) but the speed of this ROM (everything smooth and no stuttering) is just stunning. All Windows phones need a Ram clean now and then.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] nothgd:
does this rom work for tmobile htc hd2, spl-2.08.hspl?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
I can't see why not. You tell me. I'm using 2.08 HSPL now. But I don't have a T-mo HD2 to flash with.

P/S: My ROM doesn't have T-mo specific apps included though. If that's what you're looking for, tell me what apps are those. It's possible to make cabs for them.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] frater:
You should use SMTPAUTH...

That's SMTP with authentication. It will allow you to send mail using a login as credential instead of your IP.

If your provider doesn't support you can do it with gmail.

I think you need to register your e-mail address within your already made gmail-account
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kramerty88:
Are you using your email from your ISP? If yes, what ISP is that? If no, what kind of email are you using then (gmail, hotmail, yahoomail etc.)?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Digitalman:
Thanks for the help everybody, it worked with SMTPAUTH!

@maesus: Or anybody who can help, i have one other problem found, when rotating the device clockwise to landscape view, it most of the time switch to landscape but than goes direct into the wm unlock screen. When i unlock it it's keeps doing this again and again. If i rotate anti-clockwise it works okay. Anyone notice this behaviour? Is it a bug in manila, this ROM build or just in Maxmanila? I have used Task 29 before flashing rom and radio 2.08.

Keep up the good work maesus, this rom is fantastic!

What is DSP by Xetra?[/QUOTE]

Hi Maesus,

Attached is the DSP.exe, it really give a kick on the headsets.

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
My ROM only support rotate clockwise by long-press-SEND-key. Are you using this method to get rotate clockwise? What app you are trying to rotate? do you install any other rotate app software? I haven't encountered such issue you have. If you could tell me more info, maybe I can try to duplicate the issue on my phone. But if not, it's hard to debug. :D

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fazz:
Trying using the included 'Proximity Locker' it will turn the proximity feature off, which may help until this feature is improved.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] circolocodc10:
Thank you, this helped me... :-) But, what SHOULD Proximity Locker really do? :/ Like... lock the Phone when its upside down? :o)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
I planned to spend some time on SYS 23551 but very fast it rolled out 23554. But 23554 has buggy Menu. So I have to wait and see.

Proximity Locker - it turn off screen & suspend your phone when your proximity sensor is covered.

Max Manila is the one that locks the phone when its upside down.

The combination of this gives you, when you put your phone upside down back into your pocket, you don't have to worry that the phone still stay on in your pocket and bleed your battery.

And, whenever you're @ Lockscreen trying to unlock, do NOT block the Proximity sensor.

I know this may require some phone handling/holding behavior change. those have big palms and fat or long fingers would probably picked up by the proximity sensor while holding the phone. So have to try holding the phone some other way to avoid triggering the proximity sensor while at lockscreen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] circolocodc10:
But why is Proximity Locker turning on the Screen even the Phone is not in use?

The idea as it self is pretty good... But they still have to improve it :/

So, proximity Locker is also responsible for turning off the screen during phone calls? i noticed my phone doesnt turn off the screen during calls anymore since i deactivated proximity locker ;(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fychan:
Call end delays

Hi there,

Anyone face issues where there are delays in ending calls?

(i.e. call does not end immediately....when u press the end call button on sreen or the physical button.

The symptoms are random....

regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
Proximity Locker doesn't do turning off the screen during calls. However, I think that when Proximity Locker is disabled, it actually disables the Proximity sensor altogether, hence making screen off during calls not working. :(

I will still keep Proximity Locker for V2.0 as I still can't find a better auto-lock auto-suspend apps. If you know an app, please let me know.

You may adjust Proximity Locker settings via registry, to make it more towards your liking.

Yes, sometimes I had this issue, usually right after flashing new ROM, but it doesn't freeze the phone to death. After a while the phone will recover. No idea about the cause. After long usage, this problem doesn't appear anymore.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Digitalman:
I find time to experiment and now it's working like it should, i have to do a hard reset to get it working as you discribed. Thanx for you input!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
This is cool. Finally it works. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Bonobow:
Does this happen to anyone else..?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
There were discussions about using SMTPAUTH. Not sure if this could help your problem.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] circolocodc10:
You have to allow that your phone is able to use data connection while connected to a PC. Its an Option in Microsofts Active Sync.

Maybe this will solve your Problem.

Anyone facing issues with internet sharing?

it seems that after u get connected once.... the internet sharing gets screwed up.

TO get it working again requires a soft reset.

I 'm not refering to Wifi router...

Basically, I'm connecting the device via USB to my laptop....

Using the Internet Sharing App to connect my laptop via the phone's 3G connection.

Apparently, when its 1st onnected its fine...

u get into the internet sharing app... u press on "Connect" and it will say waiting for USB.. and finally it gets connected...

However..... when the laptop goes into sleep mode.... and the uSB gets disconnected from the device... and upon waking up..... the device still shows its connected.... but the 3G is already cut .... so that's what I mean screwed up... no matter how many tries u do click connect... it wil still not net internet connection on the laptop...... only a soft-reset helps..

I am still roaming around the world. I haven't settled down and then risk my phone with testing ROMs. But v1.9 is still working for me for a long, long time. I'll see if there is newer SYS after 23554. Next week I will be heading back home, maybe next weekend I will launch a new ROM. I will also try out that "fix" u provided the link.

I have no idea why your G-Profile could break again after some long use.

I configured my ROM to:

1) manual rotate anti-clockwise by long press Send key. This will rotate all apps.

2) auto-rotate clockwise for Manila and limited apps. The supporting apps can be set by BsB Tweaks.

3) with Max Manila edition, HTC Sense will auto-rotate clockwise for all tabs; Photo, Music and Document tabs will auto-rotate to full-screen anti-clockwise.

4) lockscreen does NOT rotate. If it "stucked" at Landscape, just unlock it in lanscape mode.

This is the BEST rotate user experience you ever get from any ROM, without distorting the screen,
