[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] satus:
Because this R2.7c ROM does not live up to expectation, as well as some problem with new CleanRAM 1.9.5. I decided to discontinue development for Sense 2012 and close this thread for R2.7c. Please use SatusROM 2.7a or b. They are much much better. I will remove the links in the next few day. If you still want to test, please download as soon as possible. Thanks :)

Satus ROM 2.7c - Windows Phone 6.5 - Sense 2.5 build 2012​

Well, you asked for it. So here you are. Satus ROM 2.7c with Sense 2.5 build 2012. This is based on the already stable Satus ROM 2.7 platform. :)

Those who looks for cheesy customization, this is not a ROM for you. Please use other ROM.

WARNING NOTE: I intended to name this as R2.8. But, in doing testing, I found it is not worth the R2.8 release. Unlike the advertisement which states that Sense 2.5 b2012 is built for lower hardware device, I found this is not the case. Sense 2.5 b2012 is memory hog, even worse than Normal Sense 2.5 build 1920+ in my opinion. Kind of disappointed because the hope is so high for this. :(

The Picture and Music tabs are the culprit. Clearly, HTC did not do a good job on programming for this one. In sense 2.5 1920+, the memory catch and release is very good. This 2012 is not good at all. When you first boot, you will get 22 MB Free RAM, but as soon as you access picture and music, they quickly consume a lot of RAM. So, expect high memory consumption. The solution is to disable Picture and Music tabs to save RAM.

With that has been said, not all are bad. You should have your own conclusion. Download and test it. Otherwise, stick to Satus ROM 2.7a or 2.7b.

[Known Issues]

After flashing or soft reset, please allow a moment for the ROM to complete it start up task. Don't jump in and use and blame that the ROM is slow and unresponsive.

1. Install Google Maps by yourself. It is intentionally left out so you can obtain the latest version

2. Sense 2.5 easily consumes all memory. Disable Picture and Music tabs will save significant amount of memory.

3. HTC Message:

a) When writing a new message, you can add as many recipients as you like at the To: Field. Just press that field, then type in the person name, then choose him or her. Repeat again for another recipient until done. The Menu -> Add Recipient is not working right now due to limitation in the ported version. But that is the solution.

b) MMS Server Settings:

Because Connection Setup 3.1 ported is not working well and in big size. Therefore, it cannot be used to cook this rom. To use MMS with HTC Message, you have to manually copied MMS Server Settings to HTC Message.

1st Step: Go to inbox of an email account, press Menu button, scroll up then choose MMS Option, Then choose Servers Tab, Click on the MMS Name in the box to show the settings, copy everything to a piece of paper.

2nd Step: Now open HTC Message, Menu -> Settings -> Options -> Press Menu Button Again -> MMS Server -> Press on [+] to add a new MMS Server Settings -> Type in all info copied earlier -> Press Done -> Now Set your new MMS Server as default.

4) Weather: To use My Location, you need to manually enable it. In Weather Tab, Press Menu, the press Enable My Location. Then Press Update Now. I have no idea why HTC does this. So weird!

5) Don't like rotation for sense? go to BsB G-Config in the Settings and remove rotation support for manila.

6) Don't like HTC Message? Search the forum for Sense 2.5 2012 thread. There you can find the registry to disable HTC Message.
