There's no need to feel bad if you take your time off, you did a LOT for the trinity community over the last years, and I'm shure you will continue to do so. I also appreciate that you like our rom - only a cook knows how hard it is to get all the things working together.

Regarding the "branding", I talked nAr out of it, because he had something similar already. So I guess we won't use it, but I'll keep it ;)

Btw, you can only use bmp and no animation as provider splash screen - the win7 animation we have done is in the os part. You can find more about splash screens in the thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=341817.

Quality rom... looking forward to titanium version!!! :)
[P3600 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Yes, and you've really done a nice job of getting all the "Little Things" done. There are so many that are easy to miss. :eek:

Thank you for this information. I may take some time to research it a try making something.

gift: new contact card ported to QVGA

Hi all

here a little gift to you. I've managed to port HTC New Contact Card to QVGA. Because it is integrated with Manila 2.5, I've developed a little utility called ContactUtilityLauncher (which you can find in start menu). Start it, then choose to

- create new contact

- create new sim contact

- edit existing contact

the launcher will start htc programs with right command line parameters. Landscape not supported.

Installation:

- install these cabs from attached zip, ported from LEO (rom 2.10)

Contact_Picker_1_0_20113132.cab

Contact_Utility_Engine_1_2_20113727.cab

New_Contact_Card_1_1_20113729.cab

SharedResource_1_0_20111720.cab

- if you want to assign picture from album, then install these two more cabs from Mega (unchanged, from rom 1.33)

Album_3_0_19182223.cab

Media_Tool_kit_1_0_19182223.cab

warning 1: do not select large picture or picture assignment will fail

warning 2: album 3.0 will overwrite existing album. This version will not play videos (this is a known bugs)

- restart device.

If you want, you can put all cabs in XDA_UC folder on storage card and hard reset.

I will post on request also OEM ported packages and ContactUtilityLauncher source code.

As sergiorus suggests (thanks!) if you have Message_Enhancement, change this registry key (from 1 to 0)

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCMsgEnhance]
"NOCONTACTEDITOR"=dword:00000000

and when you click "Save to contact" new contact card will be open instead!

Thank you for your attention

regards

Francesco

WARNING: I don't know if cabs are uninstallable, so probably you have to hard reset if something goes wrong

Changelog

v1) initial release

v2) modified shortcut on start menu

v3) corrected bug on ContactEditorLauncher (contact selection should now correctly popup)

v4) re-corrected bug on ContactEditorLauncher (contact selection should now correctly popup), sorry! Some gui changes on contact selection by nAr. Only Contact_Picker_1_0_20113132.cab has been updated in archive.

Hi FranCarl,

You've never out ouf surprises :)

We've tried to port New_Contact_Card_1_1_20113729, but with partial result, utility would open, could be used etc ... but contact couldn't be saved :(

It however made me progress at porting xmls resolution to QVGA. Especially, to change fonts size to adequat and correct positionning of txt & numbers input in boxes :)

Now, it seems you're in real good help with us ! Really great thanks for sharing.

I just converted the cabs to packages, so I'll try that on a test rOm very soon

Icke & I thank you once again :)

brds,

nAr
[P3600 ROM Development] Fernbedienung:
After using this ROM for some time now I am unsure if I shouldn't go back to your previous version. Don't get me wrong I really like this new version I just have the impression it is at the edge of hardware resources of our good old Trinity.

I am using the german manilla version and have Tomtom and Opera Mini installed. I have Bluetooth on all the time since I use it in my car. I am syncing my mails online all the time with my Exchange account.

This are just a few things I noticed using the new ROM:

- Programs tend to just close and I have to restart them (had this with Opera, Tomtom and even just answering a sms). Once they are running some time they seem to be stable.

- Answering/writing sms seems to be a huge resource monster. I even had manilla close in the background just answering a sms. Also clicking on a sms to read it takes very long (well thats at least my feeling and it's arrouind 5 seconds).

- Had to softreset out of multiple reasons already which I never had with the previous versions. e.g. connecting with my car via bluetooth sometimes gets into an endless loop connecting to the car (display in the car brings up the "I am connected message" over and over again). After a softreset all is fine again.

Again please don't get me wrong I am really happy someone is still working on german nice ROMs and this new version is really beautifull I just have the impression the overall performance went noticable down since last release. It might be just me so and it's prolly just time for me to get a new phone ;-)
[P3600 ROM Development] jedai:
yeah, I have to agree with that - this rom is really very nice looking, but I also share the opinion that for this hardware it's too much, that's why I'm still waiting for Titanium version.

The sms thing - yeah thats true! It really takes sooooo looong compared to WM6.1 to open Outlook to read/write sms. It's not Icke's or Nar's fault as this is WM6.5 general issue, i'm just wondering why? cause i don't see any noticeable differences between WM6.1's and 6.5's Outlook. Maybe some clever mixup of versions from different systems could make it more responsive?

After all i began to seriously think that the looks is not everything - after all I still use this phone day by day so maybe we should try to make it maybe look a bit worse, but run faster? i'd really like to help somehow, might test things etc :)

Or maybe it would be wise to switch back to WM6.1 but with some newer packages (like the astonishing dialer) if it's possible?
[P3600 ROM Development] tulen_kobi:
I must agree with jedai and Fernbedienung. + today when I wanted to soft-reset my device, It became into a hard-reset and I have no idea why ...
[P3600 ROM Development] SuperSport:
Yes, 6.5 is definitely slower than 6.1 most of the time. I would hate for development to stop on 6.5 because I know that some day there will be that miracle tweak that all of a sudden gives us all more resources.

As far as the SMS being slow, I THINK it is due to threaded messaging. If I remember correctly, you can turn that off with a utility (Advanced Config?) and it speeds up your SMS, although it's strange going back to non-threaded SMS.

I will admit, I've cooked a few 6.1 ROMs lately just to feel the speed again, but I really miss the features of 6.5 when I do.

For our Trinity's, there is a fine balance of features and resources, and I think nAr & icke are VERY close. Just a little fine tuning and it will be superb. Maybe Titanium will give just enough back? Only time will tell. ;)
[P3600 ROM Development] jedai:
hmm it's not about threaded sms view as it's the first thing i turn off after rom installation, as it's crap imo.

I was thinking about 6.1 core with some finger friendly packages from newer builds, maybe it's worth a try? or another aproach would be to NOT include everything that's available into 6.5 rom to make it lightweight and fast.

I think 2 most important improvements would be to make 6.5 messaging launching as fast as in 6.1 and to make phone more responsive to phone calls as it sometimes takes it really long to signal that someone is calling at all.
[P3600 ROM Development] ickebins:
Just to give all of you a bit from "behind the scenes":

This ROM is not just randomly put together. We were working really hard on this realease for 3 months, both of us several hours a day. All packages were hand-picked and had to pass the critical look of two cooks :)

Some things come at a big price, some things at a smaller one. The STK+USSD services are now included, because users of the last rom reported missing provider functions. The new dialer is a memory hog, and uses almost 1MB RAM more than the old one. I tried several times to include M2D 2.0, but it makes things much worse - I couldn't even get it to run properly on WM6.1. We made it as comfortable as possible to quit and restart M2D and gain some free RAM with hibernate. We got rid of a lots of bugs previous roms had, like BT transmission or Live Messenger not working. We know it's not perfect, but in my eyes it's very close :D

It's a really difficult balance between the great look and features, and we tried our best with what we wanted: A nice and smooth WM6.5 rom with M2D running on top. For me personally it's perfect, I have no need to install anything else, I don't even use navigation (although nAr runs TT on it). I understand the wishes & needs of other people out there, and we are trying to adress that with another version. People are different, and if the rom doesn't suit your needs, you can always move on. I guess things will get better when we release a slim version and the kitchen, so other cooks can try and give the people a wider variety of builds to choose from.

After all, this is just a hobby for us. nAr and I have both other HTC phones we could cook for, but for now we share the trinity and the challenge that comes with it's memory constraints. And sorry for the buzz we created about the release, I guess it was my fault when I asked users to thank us. Bug reports only wouldn't have filled this many pages :D
[P3600 ROM Development] jedai:
Icke it's not that we are complaining - not at all, it's just brainstorming to make this rom, and overall usability of our trinitys even better :)
[P3600 ROM Development] ickebins:
I wasn't complaining either, just explaining that this rom is build mostly for my (and nAr's) personal taste. And to make shure to let you know we tried our best, and we couldn't come up with anything better ;)

Thank you very much!
[P3600 ROM Development] IzNoGooD011:
Hi there, after a few weeks, I just love this ROM.

My first problem with iGO was solved with disabling M2D and soft reset - I get about 22MB of free memory. iGO is fine with that.

As mentioned before, SMS replying is slow - it takes some time to open SMS screen.

Soft-reset once performed as hard-reset and after that I often backup my PIM.

My annoyances are:

Volume decrease while talking with scroll button is not working - when I try to decrease volume it flashes and goes from Volume to contact information with no effect.

Also, does anybody have problem with Wi-Fi connecting to wireless networks? Sometimes it just goes in loop and tries to connect, but it doesn't. It only happens with weak signal networks, but in some cases Trinity will not connect to network it connected a few minutes ago...

In the end, I appreciate your hard work and ask you not to give up on us - demanding users :D :)
[P3600 ROM Development] RedBux:
Proud and appreciate to both of you.....Great job done

Hoping to see a nice and stable Titanium Rom from you two.

Best Regards to all

Especially both of you.
[P3600 ROM Development] Fernbedienung:
I went back to your last version of the old thread from begining this year. For me the 0407 German Manilla Version from 08.01.2010 is perfect stable, fast and is causing no problems and the best ROM I ever had on my trinity.

Hope it is ok to give you this honest feedback and I totally understand you two put lots of hard work into this new release. It is much prettier as the old one for sure. For me the performance difference between your old and the new one made my decision to go back but as you can see on all the great positiv feedback from others many like the new versions way more then the old one. Tastes are different and thats a good thing ;)

Keep up the good work :)

Hi, first of all let me congratulate you for this amazing ROM, best I ever had.

But I have a problem when installing TomTom on my HTC P3600 like I use to do it says that I have to activate the map, but if I install any other ROM everything work well.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance
[P3600 ROM Development] Kenzneth:
A Support to asia country format would be great with this wince.nls

Please adding it into the rom as it cost a lot of space to store one more in the device's memory:o
[P3600 ROM Development] arpcpro:
I had the same problem. When changing from another ROM to this one I got the TomTom message that the maps need activation. I don't know what causes it, but this happens because the device ID changes with this ROM. So in the file ttnavigator.bif (probably on root folder of SD card) you need to change the value to your current Trinity ID before running the maps gen./activator.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turtlesmank4:
hey my droid eris i just got it and i instantly rooted it n then after about an hour i left it on and didnt use it it just turned off and the battery was half way full
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkopalek:
Turn it back on?

Have you gone through ALL the rooting steps? Or did you just flash PB00IMG.zip and you're using whatever that has?

This is what I'd do:

If you have Amon's Recovery image installed, go download Ivan's 0.8T2 ROM, put it on your SD card, start up your phone while holding VOLUME UP + POWER, wipe Factory data, wipe Dalvik Cache, Flash from Zip, and flash Ivan's 0.8t2.

Then see how your phone works.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ketchuican:
First let me say I have tried the registry edit fix and it did not work. I simply do not have have nor does it show owner information in the today, items tab. I have soft reset after each change and no icon nor any entry. I also dont have a "me" entry in my contacts. I have some third party software I have purchased and now they have defaulted to trial versions because I can't input any owner information. This is a real problem for me and I would greatly appreciate any and all knowledge in this problem. I have a sprint HTC touch pro 2 that was upraded from 6.1 to 6.5.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] looby:
Owner information..

Took me a little time to find it.......Programs/Settings/Menu/All Settings/Personal/Owner Information ..... :)
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] ai6908:
Use the one from Sense...under sense settings tab. If you insist!

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4268138&postcount=3

Read the above post, and it has owner info. You need to remove the redirect key using one of the registry editors, and soft reset.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] shahriar5252:
I have G-alarm, the best and highly customizable alarm program for wm6.x devices, and it requires owners info for activation after the trial period. Because I have a Sprint Touch Pro2 that I upgraded to wm6.5, the owner's info was missing in my phone too. So I contacted Ageye, the developer of G-alarm, and he gave me a website that he made to correct this problem in different ways. My favorite way is to do the following:

Use a registry editor (e.g. the free "PHM Registry Editor") and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Owner. You should find a key called "Hide". Please change its value from "1" to "0" and restart your device. Now you should be able to find the owner settings.

Ageye has other simple alternatives that you can read about by going to his link. Good luck with yours.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] brooklyncat:
Ok look man. You might need to master reset if you have did this & that. Cause you could have did something you don't know. Your human right? Use Resco Explorer new one on website installs all tools. Go to Registry HKLM/ControlPanel/Owner, change Hide from 1 to 0, Reboot. Go to settings personal it's right their. later.........
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] joshoon:
Hi,

I have a ROM with Windows Mobile 6.5.5, and it has a smaller topbar (With time in it and stuff like that) and a bigger bottom bar then the older version of Windows Mobile.

It's almost like the one of HTC HD Mini, but it does not have the glass effect, behind the softkeys, its just black.

Is there any way to get a glass effect exacly the same as in HTC HD Mini for the bottom and top bar?

I have seen it already in other ROM's, so I think there must be a cab/theme for it aswell, but I can't find it anywhere.

Or maybe someone could make a cab?

Much thanks in advance!

You need to find a theme that matches what you are looking for.

Maybe Dusk Themes?

I just wanted to throw this out.

My family day-tripped to upstate New York yesterday, and relied solely on My Fresh'd Hero's Google Maps Navigation.

Flawless !!

I am totally blown away by it's capabilities, and wonder how on earth Garmin, Tom Tom etc are going to compete with this. It's stunning.

Anyway, that's my little shill for Google over.

Have a nice day everyone.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thatjerk:
I am loving Google Navigation way more than Sprint's Navigation app. All the standalone navigation units are. definitly going to have problems competing with this. Doing a street view of a address before actually going there is fantastic too. Having a visual picture of the place your going on top having gps is a killer combo.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] subliminalurge:
I agree, the street view when you arrive at the destination is a great feature! I also love being able to use the satellite view as opposed the plain map view.

There's basically two areas where the standalone units still have a large advantage. The first is obviously screen size, and the second is at least for now the text-to-speech used by google nav really sucks. It would be nice to see google implement something better for that.

In theory, Google should have a big advantage as far as keeping current with new roads, but they don't seem to stay on top of that. My wife used to work at a hotel in a fairly new area of town, and it took almost 3 years before Google Maps would accurately route people to the correct location.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] troyboytn:
I also love Google Nav but i have noticed that it does not seem to be as accurate as Sprint Nav.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] the.ghost.86:
I still love the Sprint Nav(TeleNav) the best. For me, seems like the rerouting is much quicker than Google Nav
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] thatjerk:
In my experience all navigation units/prog rams have problems with being up to date on new locations.

+1 Google or some other developer needs to come up with a sexy

text-to-speech voice.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Ceger:
I love Google Nav satellite view and integration into Maps. However, I love the nav parts of Sprint Nav for voice and clear directions and traffic rerouting.

If Google can incorporate the pros of Sprint Nav, they would have an unbeatable solution. Though free for ALL Android 2.1+ phones is ultimately quite unbeatable itself.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] nighteyes_wolf:
google nav is the cats meow......until you go into a deal cell zone. Opps no more navigation. while I now utilize google nav more than my copilot app or tomtom I still rely on those when going into a dead zone where google is useless.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] bob2300nx:
If your using google navigation , then goto the market and download NavLauncher by mad cow solutions. App is awesome has a favorites list or you can even add loctions for contacts. Then when you click on any favorite or contact it launches directions in google navigation for that location.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] jjjjayd13:
Can Do That Already!

You can do that 'now' by going to contacts and clicking on address google nav comes up for nav directions if you want!:cool:
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
Google Nav is the ****! But im confused, what does your phone being Fresh'd have to do with Google Nav? You do know Google Nav works on Damage's Rom as well as any other 2.1 OS out there....
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] scmobileman:
I imagine he was just pointing out that he was using that particular rom and not suggesting he was able to use Google Nav only because of Fresh.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
Probably, but it doesnt really matter what rom he was using so the point of pointing that out is moot.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ziggy682:
I don't know how many people know this, but you can also create direct shortcuts that you can place on your home screens.

Click the plus button, then Shortut, then Directions & Navigation. Then you can type in an address, contact name, etc. and name it whatever you want. You can even pick from several different icons (home, work, etc) and place it wherever on your home screen.

It's awesome to be able to click one button to navigate home or to work.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] VinceOB:
Yea, I think they added that feature in the newest 4.1.1 build. Its pretty sweet!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Tenny:
TomTom, Garmin, Etc can compete very easily.

Without network coverage you can't use google maps. I've been several places without network coverage with my old phone and tomtom saved me. Earlier this month I was in San Francisco trying to get somewhere and my network completely dropped on me. Made my life hell for the 15 minutes it took to get back working (still no idea as why).

With network coverage though, Google Navigation is awesome though!

Other than the left/right thing

I've used Google Nav for several trips since rooting my phone a month or so ago. It's great, agree with everyone there, except for one small dyslexic problem.

Sometimes, it simply doesn't know left from right. I was pulling up to a hotel, had the picture showing the hotel on the right side of the street, saw the hotel on the right side of the street, and listened to the phone tell me my destination was on the left. Gave the wife and I a laugh, because I can't remember the last time I had a dyslexic computer.
