3/3 so far! \(^_^)/

Maesus. You probably hear this a lot, but this ROM, the ROM that YOU have cooked up for us all is f**k**g brilliant! After being rather please with the v1.8 Max, I installed v1.8 Cookie early this morning (as I prefer Cookie a lot more) and basically spent the entire day on v1.8 Cookie.

Now, understand that I may not know/understand the serious going-ons with a ROM, but this one has mad me feel like I have a decent working phone again! The last time was on an older Xanny ROM and previous to that, Dutty, Miri and NRG.

The only two major elements I haven't really played around with yet is anything BlueTooth and WiFi. I'll sync up my Sony MBW-150 via BlueTooth tomorrow, as I'm still making sure all works well first and so far... so VERY GOOD!

Battery life today has been outstanding for me and I've been using it heavily re-installing all my usual applications, games, random minor tweaks, playing random music off my 16Gb microSD, trying the odd film via TCPMP_netDrg, reading my stack of RSS's, FaceBook'ing, Teet'ing, MySpace'ing (new MS application), a little web usage via SkyFire and Opera, using Tonality to sort out all my audio to much more refined noises, re-syncing with MS MyPhone... and of course phone calls, SMS's and new Calendar entries etc

So far ZERO crashes and believe it or not, I haven't charge the battery since 9am 'with' all the above and now with about 8% battery left! Oh... and there's more! I usually have on-line connections fully available with everything auto updating at it's soonest (most frequent) and the screen brightness is set to 90% (I don't like the auto Brightness control as it's just to dim for me).

So over 12 hours of actual usage and only now needing a full charge. Love it. LOTS!! I decided to install FingerKeyboard v2.1 and try that for a little, but if you do manage to release a WWE only version, I'd be happier really, as I've finally got used to using the included keyboard and get a long fine and fast enough with it now. I know, I could go and just learn Chinese, but that might take me... a little while! [O_O]

So for now, 3/3 ...but will keep you and all posted if I come across any issues tomorrow and of course after I make use of BlueTooth and Wifi.

BlueTooth:

- Sony MBW-150

- Folder sharing with a W7x64 PC

- WMDC Syncing with a W7X64 PC

- Sony HBH-DS205

- Apple Mac BlueTooth keyboard (messing around with this fun option)

Wifi:

- Be* ADSL2 router

- Denon AV1HD(A)

- Random hotspots in East London

Problems I'm having so far:

- Camera (Still or Motion) does

not

work at all!!! [-_-]

- WWE with CHS keyboard is a bit of a pain to use [-_-]

Maesus, my fellow good human. Thanks!!! \{^_^}/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] moisesz:
running 1.8 for the last day or so... great rom, stable, fast and the dialer bug disappeared!!!. thanks a lot for sharing this rom with the community...

though, have a problem didn't notice until this morning... tried to log in using my borders account but cannot connect to the site... is there any workaround or fix to this issue?.

thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
hi moisesz, I don't have a Borders account. I will register one and try out later.

When you try to connect to the site, are you using WiFi, 3G/Data or USB? Are other Internet apps usable?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
Hi fazz,

Thank you very much for all the compliments! :) I feel flattered to hear that you like my ROM so much!

Let's focus on the problems. :rolleyes:

Camera works here with me. So far no other users complained about Camera failed to work. I have no idea why that could happen. Could it be some of the apps you installed that crashed the Camera drivers?

I will compile a WWE only ROM based on V1.8, and maybe to release some "nightly builds" of my latest adventures / tweaks I've done.

Stay tuned...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
I am uploading 1.8Cookie_WWE_only and Nightly Build. Please check my 4Shared repository.

Multiupload will come soon.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] moisesz:
Hi maesus, thanks for your response... I've tried both using WIFI and data connections without success and i can get access/updates from other applications, only this one doesn't work.

thanks

v1.8 WWE only with Cookie - 3/3

Hi Maesus... well well... what can I say... THANKS!!! :cool:

v1.8 WWE only is great so far and the keyboard (downgrade if you like) is much better and simpler to use for us dull English only keyboarding users.

I have NO idea what caused the camera (still/motion) problem, but as I'm now using your more recent 'WWE only' ROM I guess we won't really now. Of course I don't have this issue now with the camera and will blame random other programs that I installed the cause.

I won't say too much on the 'WWE only' version of the ROM, as I've only been using it for a few hours properly now, re-syncing all my data again etc. I will however take it a little easier on my applications/tweaks etc and make sure I try all I can before blaming the ROM in any way.

For now:

- Can't log in to my 'Borders' account with or without WiFi

- Flashlight.exe needs updating to the 'no demo' version

- Issue with 'Event sounds', but will explain more in my next update... need to mess around a little more to know exactly the fault

- Screen Lock is annoying and can't seem to lengthen the time (any ideas or should I use some other random application to help?)

Peace out and THANKS VERY MUCH AGAiN for yet another FAB ROM!!! \[^_^]/
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
hi moisesz and fazz,

Thanks for confirming that Borders account is not working with eReader. I tried here and the result is the same. There is nothing I can do about this, HTC has to fix this. Just leave it there first or I can try to remove the Border icon if that helps, just like other chefs. :cool:

OK, will update FlashLight to no demo.

Screenlock ... this is a long story. I had tried TouchLockPro, SmartLock and now HD2Proximity Locker to perform auto-lock by phone orientation. Unfortunately, all had its own problems with any ROM cooked.

You may visit

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=624206 for details about tweaking HD2Proximity Locker. You may try to increase the value of "SensorOffWhenProximity" . I tried but it never really gave me what I wanted.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jchoong:
Just flashed 1.8 with Cookie and no problems with camera, WiFi or Data Connection. Everything looks excellent. I do noticed that when I go to the Start Menu, I could see several program icons eg. BsB, CleanRam, Nimbus, etc, but when I use these as shortcuts, they don't work. Presumably these are not included in your ROM but the shortcuts are still included in the Start Menu. Thanks for another very nice ROM.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
hi jchoong,

The apps are there and cooked in the ROM. I experienced this issue before, it was due to no Hard Reset (I prefer Task 29 /MTTY method). Did you perform Task 29 then only install the ROM? If you didn't, I urge you do so as there might be something else turn wrong too.

The only missing apps is Resco Explorer. If you still keep Version 1.6, please copy out from \Windows\ folder of the resco .CABs and place them at \Storage Card\Autoinstall\
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fazz:
The issues start to creep in

Hey Maesus,

I had a feeling the 'Borders' thing was an issue beyond your control/amending, so it's KooL my good man!

The Flashlight thing is very minor I know, but I do actually use it and prefer over the other random flash light applications out there because it's nicer to use.

As for 'screen locking' I guess I would prefer to turn the damn thing off for as long as possible! As I mentioned before, I use an old Sony MBW-150 watch, which locks the screen when I walk away from my phone, breaking the BlueTooth signal. I normal have a 4 digit pin set, so when I do walk away or leave my phone somewhere unattended, I can depend on this little bit of security. All the above worked fine on my old HTC Touch HD/Blackstone, so really hoping to re-create this brilliant feature. The problem now is that if I enable a 'pin' I have to put this into the screen everytime I unlock the phone, which is far too annoying now, as it locks every few minutes. I tried extending this time to 12 hours, so it would mainly only lock when the BlueTooth signal is lost.

I know, all this is long winded, but hopefully easy enough to work out and find a way of enabling the screen lock to only come on at least after 3 hours or more and with the 'pin' enabled. I know the lock screen thing is problematic within other ROM's too and i liked the feature when the phone is tipped head to toe (upside down) and locks too, but of course, still had the issue of auto locking after a few minutes still.

OK... next newer issues:

"Settings Tab/Data services/Documents - Disable Roaming Warning"

Not such a big deal, but my screen go half bright and HTC Sense locks up sort of. Try it and if does the same for you, maybe you'll see what I mean. The only way I can get out of it is Disabling Sense in Settings/Home and the Re-Enable it.

The inbuilt Facebook application isn't working fully for me. I can log in, see my Fb contacts (doing most of the usual stuff), but a big problem is that it won't auto assign my Phone Contacts with my Fb contacts, if you get me? Usually you can login, go to the HTC Contacts tab, then 'Updates and Events' and the Fb part of the software, should automatically see your contacts and ask, do you want to assign them etc... you eventually click yes to all and done, but in this case it's not seeing them automatically and asking anything at all. I can do each person individually, but seems a little silly to, seeing at will takes ages and I'll be do this all again in the next ROM update if this isn't fixed (if broken?).

Still trying figure out why my personal choice in Event Sounds isn't exactly working... will get back to you on this one.

FazZ [^_^]
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jchoong:
I did Task 29 (it is so much easier than MTTY, particularly for Win7 users) and then flashed your ROM. Let me recheck the missing programs. Thanks

Dear Maesus,

Wondering you have any idea what is the right program to install in order to watch RMVB movie ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
9.7. 10 is still a beta.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
There is a RMVB plug-in for Media Player, and cab'ed by few contributors. Some worked on some ROM but some didn't. You may search in the forum.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bonaldlee:
thank you for your answer~~i think 9.7 is better than 10
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mrboliao:
i think opera 10 has the final out already... i'm usin it and feels that every aspect is so much better (i dont use pinchzoom thats why).

anyway Maesus this is a great rom. appreciate that you've included the original chs keyboard which is really good.

just a question, whats the easiest way to revert to the original sense theme?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
mrboliao, easiest way... flash a stock ROM? Or you may try Energy ROM's add-on cabs, here http://www.energyroms.com/Addons/Return 2 Stock CABs/

I haven't tested them on my ROM, but I think the files should work well.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mrboliao:

v1.8 WWE only with Cookie

I've decided to re-flash the current v1.8 (WWE only with Cookie) completely as I'm getting so many random issues, from various custom/personal wallpapers not working, custom/personal ringtones and event sounds don't work, inbuilt Facebook connection isn't full working, camera stopped working again and the phone lock-up and froze overnight. I had to hard reset it this morning before I could use it. Hmm?! Well will run a Task 29 in moment and reflash, again. :rolleyes:

Opera 10

I tried installing the Opera 10 but it seems to have issues with the Manila internet tab.

It crashes the Sense UI.... sigh.... anyone has workaround?

Eventhough Opera 10 does not have pinch to zoom... but its very responsive....

Anywya using 2 fingers to zoom can be quite difficult at times... :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kramerty88:
If you past a shortcut on the home tab, does it crash then aswell?

And have you set opera 10 as standard browser when you installed it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] maesus:
hello all,

I am preparing these changes:

- no demo FlashLight

- Opera 9.7 35951. For Opera 10, just put the cab in \storage card\autoinstall. I tried it. It's fast, faster than 9.7, but doesn't support pinch-to-zoom even though I'd added it.

- remove ArkSwitch and replace by something that simply works. :)

- based on OEM1.72 , bye-bye 576MB RAM :D

- try some incomplete but better looking new icons got from the net

- SYS 23549 ?? I haven't got the complete package yet!

Any other suggestion?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] kramerty88:
- Flashlight i usefull though you use it once a month, I don't mind if it's removed if it improves something else, otherwise why not let it?

- Agreed, pinch to zoom is usefull, more then a little speed (If other disagree, put it in autoinstall)

- Doesn't arkswith work well? I use it very often and don't have anything to complain.

- Why based on OEM 1.72? I know it saves some battery, but I (and I hope others) prefer speed rather then a little more battery life. This would be a reason not to upgrade to 1.9 for me...

- Sys 23549, can you explain the changes in it?

Kind regards!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] mrboliao:
I think he means the flashlight with no demo version.

Anyways I think arkswitch is pretty slow in response as well.

I choose opera 10 but as you said it's cabbable

On a selfish note I hope that Maesus would release a lite version with just sense and wwe+chs keyboard, but I'm juz dreaming out loud...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] fazz:
All good so far [^_^]

Hey all,

So far, with a re-flash of 'v1.8 WWE only with Cookie' all is super and solid. Haven't installed any tweaks or strange applications and be in future, as it's stupid really. I think I was trying to install 'DarkRuler' for measuring via the camera and was screwing it up... possibly? Not going to try again, as it's all working fine.

Long night out, with 60% battery currently and will be using the phone heavily... let's see how that goes! {^_^}

Looking forward to revision 23549 from your good self! [^_^]

Really GR8 ROM

Hello chef!

I am really satisfied with your work. Tried almost all leading ROMs for HD2 and need usage for business - stability and speed (not super-speed) and I must say, that with your ROM I get really solid result. Now I am downloading 1.8 for test, but I remember, that I was very satisfied with your past ROM... so I am appreciating now (I understand how hard work it is - was cooking ROMs for Hermes, Touch Pro) - sending some small donation 4 beer (6NE40652YG020464U). Thanks for your work.

Agreed Arkswitch is not so good, even when I press "close all" running applications, it still nag me with another screen to confirm.

I previously used showcase, it worked rather fine for me, I just add it as one of the favourite shortcut or map to long send buttom to call out the application.

Taskmanager for X2 is also ok, you can constantly see the free ram :)

Thank you very much fazz & MaRaHoX!! :D:D:D

I am travelling (currently transitting) at the moment with my 23549 V1.9 ROM. I stick with OEM 2.10 as I still haven't successfully debugged the Mac address problem 00-11-22-33-44-55 whenever I use 1.66 / 1.72 OEM. If anything wrong with V1.9, I will be sufferring. Touch wood! Once I have touched down I will upload V1.9.

I've removed ArkSwitch and opt with MMTaskManager. It's not memory resident app so launching it would be slower. But it is effective and won't crash with CleanRAM.

Also, tell me if you're expecting more from V1.9, rather than those I've spelled in the Change Log post. Please let me know, ie not satisfied with total storage size and looking for even more, let me know!
