[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] VeEuzUKY:
Quick question, for some of these new updates for the next ROM, you think it's possible at all to have cabs just to upgrade the existing ROM?... its just that many of us (me included needless to say) just updated the ROM a few days ago and started configuring the system with all preferences and apps and a complete re-install from scratch, though tempting, is a bit hard to go ahead without thinking twice. Some upgrade paths along full new ROMs would be so awesome... I know some things need to be cooked directly into the new ROMs, but at least the ones that can be upgraded, would be great to have available as an easier and faster alternative to starting from scratch.

...just a thought... I don't know the amount of work involved in making installable cabs of new updates and tweaks... you da' man of course and you're the one that knows. We (me for sure) are grateful for all your efforts, small, big and gigantic:D:D:D

PS - I hated my phone till I got CleanEx HQ 1.54 in. This is the way HTC should have shipped it. You're work is brilliant!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
the performance tweaks i can cab yes as they are just reg changes. and you know the new drivers are available as a cab, but cooked in is better

the bug fixes, no. that has to be cooked in

i will upload the new rom anyway (since new people will need the whole thing and its there for those who want to test it) and make some cabs for everything else later today if i get a chance :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] VeEuzUKY:
OK great. For this new ROM release since I already have the 3D drivers updated in my system, Ill be happy if you just post a cab with the new tweaks and fixes that I can do a simple update with. I know this is a long work in progress and that your platform keep evolving... In my case my update/flash schedule is to maybe do a bi-monthly full new flash as you release major ROM revisions (on the weekends when I have more time) and in between, upgrading my existing ROM with whatever small updates you make available as cabs:)

Thanks again:D:D:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
had a bit of a brainstorm on this and think i have had an idea

-you make up a SPB backup

-you flash a new rom when its released

-you restore your SPB backup

-then you install a CAB that re-sets any registry changes made since the last release (since SPB resotre would have overwritten these changes)

-then you are running the new rom but with your old setup.

this should work since most chanegs are package level (and hence stored in the ROM only) which means SPB does not touch them during the backup / restore process

i might test this today actually! i will get the rom up (eta about 30 mins now) and then make a "remake" cabe you can run after your SPB restore

is anyone up for testing this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Diegis0n:
That remake cab should work just fine! (If we are thinking the same thing G :p)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
yeah my logic is sound right?

new rom > restore spb (therefore old reg settings) > install remake cab for the new settings again > good to go?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
HQ 2.00 beta ROM

link > http://www.mediafire.com/?mhzdntdt1hj

Remake CAB (post SPB restore) --> http://www.sendspace.com/file/489qlr

this rom is regular HQ (no footprints / stc / stocks) if the restore system and remake cabn works, i will build the other versions.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pongster:
looking forward to the remake cab... we can also include this in cooking right? (convert to EXT or something?)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
no, the remake can is for use after the phone is flashed.

the tweaks would already be in the kitchen :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
When is final coming out, instead of beta?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
this is the final rom, but its abeta test of the "remake cab" system

by the way, here is the "remake" cab for HQ 2.00

http://www.sendspace.com/file/489qlr
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Diegis0n:
Exactly, that remake cab would relist the tweaks we want where we want them after SPB "messes it up"

One thought: if any tweaks were applied manually (meaning without cabs) before a SPB backup was made ... the "remake cab system" would only recover the tweaks put in it, not those of the user! I guess there aren't many of those around ...

all is cabbed nowadays but: remember before testing! backup all your own tweaks that you don't have a cab for :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jandev:
When extracting the zip with the ROM, I get an error message "file is broken"?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pongster:
Can I install these tweaks over 1.54 or it wouldn't make much of a difference?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] daigoro64:
Same here (CRC error). Downloading again...

...2nd try, same result. Waiting for new uploads.

Thanks Gavin.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
ah pooey

ok i will reupload them both again and im building the foot+stocks+skt version too :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] falawi:
i use HQ 1.54 it's v-good but some programs comes landscape before with the Changelog v1.19,Changelog 0.53 can use vertical or horizontal
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
what do you mean? program partrait / landscape settingsnot changed from the base stock rom in any version!

Everyone

new roms cooking now and will try to get them up correctly by the end of my shift tonight.

I am building only two versions which covers all bases:

One is without - footprints , Stocks and STK

one is with Footprints , Stocks and STK

all are version 2.00 final
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] SMS92:
I'm looking forward to the new rom, thanks for the good work! Just flashed with 1.54 for the first time and am loving the simplicity and ability to just work from the ground up with it.

Would you be able to tell me whether you've enabled the FM radio enhancement tweak in your rom?

:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
if i knew the reg key for it i would do, but i dont so no.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
Can confirm. WinRAR output: "! C:\Users\[...]\Downloads\CleanEX HQ beta.zip: CRC failed in CleanEX HQ 2.00 beta.nbh. The file is corrupt"

When can we expect a new upload?

Nvm, got it, gavendor!

NEW HQ 2.00 ROMS

Rom without footprints / stocks / stk --> http://www.mediafire.com/?jimzz3ziezz

Rom WITH footprints / stocks / stk --> http://www.mediafire.com/?z1wm4muyyyh

Remake CAB --> http://www.mediafire.com/?mmwjt2czl0d

Instructions for HQ upgraders

Make a SPB backup of you phone before you flash

Choose your rom, download and flash

Restore your SPB backup

Run the "Remake CAB"

Basically, this system should enable you to upgrade to the new roms without having to reinstall all your stuff again. The Remake CAB will overwrite old registry values restored by SPB with the new ones from the new rom

Changelog

Cooked new graphics drivers into OEM drivers (not as an EXT - better performance this way)

Couple of bug fixes to manila and email client

New performance tweaks

Scroll mechanism changes

Diego, could you work your magic with this and make me a new layout for post 1? would appreciate it! :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Diegis0n:
No problem :)

Edit: hmm, seems already fine to mee :) Good job!

Edit2: ooh of course, you mean for the "remake" process? :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
yeah, just the "remake process" needs tidying up. im getting used to your layouts now, so its getting easier to edit them :)

EDIT:

kitchen updates will be ready tomorrow for y'all :)

EDIT2:

for my kitchen users, attached is a reg file with some new tweaks in it you can put in your tweaks app.reg

look through it though, as some are duplicates of wat you already had, and you will want to delete the HTCSCROLL ones you already have and use the ones in this file instaed. hope that makes sense :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Diegis0n:
Layout done!

Currently mirroring to MU.com, rs.com follows as usual too :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
Downloading now to see how it is - really wanna get that bloody softkey cooked in but will have to try work out what happens with the reg key entry...looking forward to kitchen update too!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
guys, look at my post a couple up for some more info for kitchen users :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
Yes yes ya'll, captain gavendor ftw! :rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
captain gevendor LOL :)

I would like some feedback on whether this upgrade process works ok!!! (easy way to tell - if you flash then restore then run the cab the rom version should read CleanEX HQ 2.00)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
I personally can't help you with that captain, cause I'm gonna do a total clean(ex) flash from scratch, no restores or backup (except my phone). But probably San Diego or Big Ed will try this method.

Anyway, thanks for all your ROM's so far! :D They are real stable and damn fast, cap!

EDIT: I do have one more question. Since the GOD's have blessed us with HSPL2, do you recommend flashing SPL 1.66 (HSPL) for maybe a (even) better battery life in combination with 2.09.51.03_2?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
well, i upgraded my spl to 1.66 using hspl2 and cant say there is any difference that i have noticed. flashes seem to load a little faster maybe, but thats about it as far as i can tell
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CanEpia:
Awww man! Why'd you have to go and do that? Just when I thought my flashing addiction stopped with HQ 1.54 which is perfect... you gotta do an upgrade! :p

Luckily it's a slow day and the wifey is out... guess I'll HAVE to give this one a go eh? :D:D:D:D:D Keep up the good work!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
hey its not my fault, Diego made me do it, said i cant not have a new rom with the new drivers cooked in, and i guess he was right, but still, its his fault :p

but why dont you try the upgrade method? should save you having to do everything from scratch again :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] joncy92:
Tried out DsE's version, had a few problems with the phone running very slow, and phone app freezes, also when text are received they do not go into inbox or conversation mode so it's impossible to read them, however the LED flashes, and the message tab button shows an unread number icon, tthe text is not displayed on the tab either. was working fine for a couple of hours, turned phone off for 4 hours, and problems started

Any help appreciated. Keep up the work :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
i have had a serious bug reported with HW 2.00 WITH foot/stock/stk version so i have removed the link while i investigate.

the other one works fine by the way :) :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
Thanks for the quick report captain! I use the WITH OUT version, so for me it's okay. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
FIX for HQ 2.00 WITH foot/stock/stk version

please download this cab http://www.sendspace.com/file/cpgcz0 and install it and let me know if sense will start after a reboot. if it does problem solved :)

then i will edit first page to suit :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jandev:
Procedure SPB BACK UP, flash CleanEX 2.00, SPB BACK UP, install remake cab

doe's not work. ROM version still 1.54!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CanEpia:
Installed 2.00 with footprints/stocks/stk. Manilla won't load. It also makes it hard to run the cab, but after a few tries I managed to run the cab. reboot and Manilla still won't load :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
ok try this cab! this should fix it :)

http://www.sendspace.com/file/jwlub3
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
did you reboot after installing the cab?

and let me know what value is in HKLM/Software/HTC/HTCScroll/Friction

thats another one that i changed. the cab should have worked! ???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
FIX v2 for HQ 2.00 with foot/stock/stk

try this cab, install and reboot. manila should load now :)

http://www.sendspace.com/file/jwlub3
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jandev:
Yes i rebooted. Tried ti install the cab twice but no result.

Haha, sorry can't look in the register, already flashed again to do a clean install...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
i jsut manually changed a reg key to something else and tested the cab, it works fine! ???
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] jandev:
Don't know it stayed with ROM version 1.54.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CanEpia:
Mine's still not working with this .cab. Everything seems to work except manilla now.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
ok then for the moment if people want footprints / stocks / stk go back to 1.54 for now, i will look into it tomorrow now :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
UPDATE:

think i have figured out what the problem is with the WITH version, am rebuilding now :) and will let you all know :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CanEpia:
D'oh!

Woohoo!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] yusufjee:
Did you give any thought to implementing 4 icon start menu?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
the new with rom build did not work, i need to get some files from my kitchen off my home PC to get it working, which means i will have the rom ready for tomorrow, hopefully!

everyone else, continue using the HQ 2.00 without rom,. as that one is fine :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
Just noticed something... If you're connected to G/3G/H it doesn't show the timer anymore when you click on the taskbar. Instead of a timer (which was really handy!) it now shows "connected", that's it.

Is there any way for you, cap, to bring back the timer instead of "connected", via a CAB fix maybe or something (without rebuilding a new ROM)? Because it's really annoying now, you don't have any idea for how long your data connection has been active.

Besides that... this ROM is f*ckin' tight as a virgin's *****, just lovin' it! Keep up the good work captain gavendorrr! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
well, i dont know what would have changed that, as i havent touched anything commanager / taskbar wise since the first HQ

weird.

but thanks for the nice "review" :d
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
woohoooo, i have figured it out!

i have a with foot/stock/stk rom that works now, am uploading as i type this :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gianton:
that's easy to change... copy to \windows and soft reset.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] CanEpia:
hahaha.. just after I finished flashing back to 1.54 and setting my phone up again. Seriously, after 2.00 I stop flashing ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
lol, me too!

after 2.00 i am seriously taking my braek for a couple of weeks!

it wont be long till its up now :) about 25 mins :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] daigoro64:
Confirmed this behaviour. Moreover, bluetooth icon does not anymore appear when BT is turned on.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
oh buggeration!!!!!!!!! :mad:

ill fix them both tomorrow :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chri55tof:
Gavin, you are addicted in cooking to much to take a break with new ROMs for longer than a week :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
going to do so, but i cant leave you all with broken roms, thats not right!

im not going to bother uploading the fixed with version until i reupload the pair of them tomorrow with thetask bar icon fix (for bluetooth)

:( :( :( i feel stupid sometimes for not always remembering to test the obvious! :mad:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] daigoro64:
And, at least, you could start with having a nice Saturday night ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chri55tof:
You don`t have to, you are doing great job !!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g.lewarne:
cant, im working :( as i do all weekend every weekend :(

I won't upload to rs.com for now unles you'll post a fix instead of of a new rom?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
Taskbar timer fix requested!

Here a quick one, send from the beautiful HD2 :cool:

Got some more information for you captain, maybe you can work with that!

I already noticed the disappearance of the timer before, but at that time I switched back to the Ultra Lite series, so I didn't bother.

The moment the timer disappeared was when you 'fixed' the comm.manager because somebody complained about the wrong spelling (double "s") and about airplane/flight mode being always: ON (Enabled) or something. From exact that moment on the timer was gone. That moment was either in the final version of Ultra Lite series AND/OR from the first version of HQ and on.

Could you please fix this somehow? The easy way would be via a CAB fix, because you deserve your (temporary) retirement and rebuilding and especially reflashing a whole new ROM again, takes to much time.

If CAB fix isn't possible then maybe you can keep this in mind for your next updated ROM in the future!

Anyway, I'm out for the night now... Captain gavendorrr just keep the ROM tight, try to fix the connection timer... Just, do your thing Romeo! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] yusufjee:
Just istalled the latest version, one thing. Why the hardware buttons backlight is always on? The backlight goes off only when the screen is in standby. Any fix for this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Savag3Vim:
Wifi does not remember pin and does not automatically connects when turning it on.

Is this suppose to be standard on this rom?

I can't install marketplace in??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pongster:
I think Gav put this in as a "feature"... you'll need to delete a file related to keypadled, to make sure the lights go off in 10 seconds...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Sultan1993:
Why have turned on flip clock animation on in HQ2.00?

it was always off in earlier ROMs
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
testbeta - do you mean when you click on the taskbar and it tells you the time you've been connected to the network? my ROM has this in it still (I'll get a screen shot in a bit once I've finished cooking v0.2 of my ROM)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] greg1fraser:
hey guys thinking flashing

CleanEX DsE any1 have any opnions on it,any bugs etc
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
not heard any yet, you could try my ROM if you wanted - I'm just getting v0.2 ready if you're interested
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
I think we're talking about exactly the same thing, but I'll wait for your screenshot, just to be sure :)

For everybody else, i'm talking about this: When you're connected to internet, via G/3G/H, it shows a timer when you click on your upper taskbar (where also windows start softkey is). The timer is showing the duration of your (G/3G/H) connection so far.

EDIT:

From this moment on the timer was gone:

"CleanEx UltraLite

(...)

Changelog v1.24 (Download: MediaFire / RapidShare / MegaUpload)

Updates to SYS 21895

Updated and fixed commanager

Performance enhanced"

So at time I just downgraded to v.1.19. But now I wanna stick with the HQ series, but they all have the timer removed and instead it's just showing "connected"!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
yeah thats the one - my ROM has that. Just testing v0.2 of my ROM and once it's on I'll get a shot

EDIT: OK, MyMobiler won't show the time as connecting to the PC disconnects the data connection - but I can assure you it works. It's says something like

Contract Internet 00:10:20 [G]
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] greg1fraser:
yeah post link n features dude
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
@ Big Ed: is there any possible way for you to CAB (fix) this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
Not sure as I'm using Gav's kitchen based on v1.54 - I'll have a word with him when he's about but it might be down to a backup or something...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
v0.2 is now available

Not a lot of changes tbh, it was just getting the ROM setup to how I have it:

*Co0kie's HomeTab (is also on v0.1 but wasn't on the list) - set to 1 page, 4x4 shortcuts by default, looking to properly cook in CHTEditor in next version so install it if you want to change this.

*Left Home softkey set to 'Phonebook' so you can get rid of the 'People' tab

Try if you want to, feedback helps to keep making it better!!

CleanEX EOS v0.2 (MegaUpload)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] greg1fraser:
downloading it now dude will check it out n help u out as much as i can
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
thank you!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] yusufjee:
And i also dont see the bluetooth icon in the taskbar when BT is enabled.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
I might give yours a run too Ed! Downloading it today and then I'll wait first till there is word from gavendorrr (and you) about the possible timer fix!

EDIT: About the C.H.T., you're using the newest version right? And also the newest (1.6.1.) version of C.H.T.-Editor? I'm also using it on HQ ROM, works very smooth :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] EddyOS:
yep, 1.6.1 is cooked in and will be looking to add CHTE 1.6.1 once I can sort out an icon issue. bluetooth icon is working in my ROM (well, on my HD2 anyway!!)

This ROM is basically how I set my phone up - 'm looking to remove unused tabs (stocks, footprints) in my next release too
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Bonobow:
Nice ROM... thank you... so far sticking to it. but looking for a better messaging software-if that at all exsist...

This rom is so clean, auto connect for data don't even work for fb, twitter or mail

Are u kidding me?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] testabeta:
What the hell are you talking about?! :confused:

First of all their are 3 ROM's now. gavendor's (HQ), san diego's (DsE) and big ed's (EOS), so what ROM are you talking about? And specify your problem clearly.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Savag3Vim:
On HQ rom.

Wifi connection does not remember password so everytime i connect to wifi, i have to re-enter the password.

Data connection cannot auto connect. So auto updates on weather, fb, mail or twitter does not work.

This rom has been stripped of everythin...doesn't even have standard windows apps like marketplace, windows live or messenger. I think this programs should be kept in
