Oh yeah, silly me I forgot about that! :D I already new that but I didn't reakize at the time when I posted. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pandollar:
Thanks

Hi, I think I have tried most ROM'S on here now but this certainly seems to fit my needs.

The battery seems to last longer and as of yet I have had no freezes, seems like a very fast and stable ROM, one for keeps I think.

No big issue but how do I use my own sound as an Alarm clock, I have my own ringtones and message alerts set but can't seem to get the alarm clock one.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
if you are wanting to add alarms try the following?

you should be able to get .wav files (PCM Uncompressed) to work for alarms, and then they must be less than approx 2.33mb

They must be stored in the windows directory.

The .wav files must be 8bit or 16bit and either 8kHz, 11.025kHz, 16kHz or 22.05kHz

you should than be able to select the new wav file from the alarm list.

hope this helps

One other thing Chris, on WinMo 6.5.x on the Diamond landscape in Sense dowsn't retract the taskbar and notification bar so you can't use the arrows at the bottom properly! Does this work on the WVGA HD2?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
it works fine on most roms with 2012. i'd suggest you have a look at OZrom as an example.

i've disabled landscape on sense in mine except for the music and album.

when you getting your HD2 btw?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] microang:
No I mean the Music and Album tabs, does that rotate correctly, I know 2012 works! I've used it but want coverflow! How'd you make a hybrid? D'you just install all the 2012 files except music and album and use the 1921 ones?

I'll be getting my HD2 in the next two to three weeks but I want to make a final great ROM for the Diamond first and then a HD2 ROM! Do you use HSPL or SSPL on your HD2?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] HJ200:
Hey chrisd1a1,

Thanks for the clean and fast ROM! I've been using EnergyROMs for a long time, but I wanted to go back to a faster stock version, without too many cooked in programs I wouldn't use :P

So last night I flashed yours, and I have to say, I'm impressed with the amount of free RAM and memory! However I've got one problem: My location doesn't work. Maybe it's because I'm on a roaming network (my cellphone provider uses a network of a bigger company, so always roaming), but I had it working on the EnergyROMs.

In the time I used the Blackstone, I replaced my rilphone.dll to fix this problem, but no luck this time. I've tried using Radio 2.07 (with rilphone 2.07), 2.08 and 2.10, but no luck. Last time I replaced the rilphone my phone couldn't connect to the network anymore, so I had to flash again :S

Any idea how to fix this? I'm using a European (NL) HD2...

Anyway, thanks for the ROM :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
rofl, i'm happy to help mate but in this case i'll say have a play with the packages. can't give up all my work;)

ok. i'm on my home network so all i can say is it's working fine for me and noone else has mentioned this. by default the roaming options are turned off.

firstly have you enabled My Location by going to the Weather Tab> Menu>Enable My Location

Then try going to the settings tab> Data Services> Weather then Download when Roaming.

Let me know if this works

Regards

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] HJ200:
Rofl.. :D :D :D

Never seen the "Enable my location" option, as it was always turned on by default in previous ROMs. Works now, didn't even guess it was THAT simple! Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
just glad it worked:) was begining to think there was a bug i'd missed;)

enjoy it

How to make a Hybrid?

Hi,

I tried to build a hybrid Sense 2.5 ROM using all the 2012 packages with only the photos and music from 1921, please can you direct me as to how to make a hybrid ROM that works as this way it crashes when the photos or music tabs are clicked.

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
you have to edit the manila core a bit.. sorry mate but while i'm happy to help i put a lot of work into getting this to run (pride, stubborness and about 2 months work went into this) so i'm not willing to share the exact method.

it works though keep at it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] microang:
I thought this was a sharing community? :p Can you give me a hint at least of what to do? :confused:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
this is a sharing community, and as you know from the diamond forum i share a lot. this package took a lot of work though.

you need to change the manila core file a bit so it takes a bit of work. if you are starting cooking i'd start with one version or the other. i've not checked if anyone else has managed this one yet. it's possible so check other roms?

good luck, it took a lot of tries.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] -Vulture-:
Just flashing your ROM and testing if THIS bug is also present in your ROM. *crossing fingers* :p :)

EDIT: Hm its there, damnit! ;) Havent found a stock ROM without this bug. As you can read in the thread ive linked above, its related to the new tabs in 2012. One of them is causing this issue. But why is this huge bug going unnoticed for such a long time? Is nobody using the mail tab? :P ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
it's strange, and tbh it's not something i've noticed. that's on about 50 mails per day!!!

i understand it may be the documents tab thats causing it. i'll look at removing some of the tabs in the future to see if this helps but have to say it's gone unnoticed so far. if i fix it i'll post the updated but i'll be releasing my next build 'as is' in the next few days

thanks for letting me know about this

regards

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] -Vulture-:
No problem, dont worry. Its something related to 6.5.x and those sense tabs. Ive tried CleanEX DsE Black Edition maniless ROM v8 which only has the standard tabs included and the mail tab works there.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] microang:
I'm not new to cooking I've been cooking for about 4 months, but since I always liked the stock look I never bothered playing with the manila files so have no idea how to do that, I've used both versions and don't like them on they're own as they're both missing things. What app did you use to edit the manila files?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
i'll message you later ok. and point you in the right direction:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
new build 23569 up

Build 23569 released

i'm at work so just the rapidshare link is active so far. i'll add the others this evening.

there is one slight bug where the About Phone info on Manila settings is not updating the correct build number. it's so minor i'm not looking to fix this.

hope you enjoy and please feedback?

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] imtiyazee:
Used this rom for 2 hrs and i feel there is battery drain issue with this. I'm on Radio 2.08.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
try updating your radio to 2.10 i'm running wiht this and not noticing too much of an issue.

the battery use is higher than on my previous build, but i don't consider it a problem. i've tweaked the base to increase performance, it's a trade and something will give somewhere:) if people report a major batter issue i'll roll back the tweaks accordingly.

please feedback any further findings as i can only fix what i know about.

regards

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] imtiyazee:
Certainly will try your advice and report you back with more tests.

Ηι man!! Downloading now to test it!

Looks good and with lots of free space to use. ive been lookin for a clean rom so i could customize it myself without many apps and programs already cooked.

hope it works ok.. keep in touch and thanks in advance :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
thats what i was aiming for, clean fast. with extras:) hope you enjoy and please feed back

ok the other links are up as well folks

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] malias4:
Αfter playing a bit i found it really working properly!!

No bugs or any anoying things !!

congr chris, good job. i will keep it and start customizing!! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
thanks for the feedback:)

if anyone does find any bugs just let me know and i'll look at fixing them.

come to think of it with the number of downloads and lack of feedback i'd love to know if people love it or hate it??

a bit of a roadmap for the future:

i've been playing with sense 2013 and 2014. there is no real performance change to 2012 so i'm not looking at updating. i'm not a fan of changing something if it's pointless.

i've been playing with the 2.11 and 2.13 base and i'm finding they are slower and use more battery. i'm not going to add something that slows this down.

i'll keep cleaning the base i'm using to increase storage. A few more performance tweaks are on the cards.

i'm keeping 'stock' so users can customise themselves, also i'm not going to fill the memory with apps. (that is what the memory card is for)

regards

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] -Vulture-:
Hm, your asking for a bug? :D Try to fix the one with the mail tab in sense 2012.1412. All information is in the thread, its caused by the documents tab in some way, but only in 1412, 1225 doesnt have this bug.:rolleyes:

I cant believe that no one uses the mail tab, this bug is so obvious, at least i think so :D ... Just update your mail tab and see if you can flick to the new received mails. I cant. The green bubbles are there, showing me that there are new mails waiting for me but the preview wont update. i have to switch accounts or leave the mail tab and get back to see the new mails in the preview. Theres a video in the thread linked above (second post) where you can see whats happening.

EDIT: Sorry for writing this, have been pinpointed to your second post in this thread. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] malias4:
if u would read the second post u would see there is al ready an issue about this :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] -Vulture-:
Ah sorry, cant fully check all ROM threads every day again if something changes, so sorry that ive missed that. :)

But is this bug really so minor? I use the mail tab on a daily basis for two accounts and im stumbling over this behaviour every time again, its so annoying...at least for me. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] imtiyazee:
After playing with this rom with radio 2.10 as advice, battery performance has improved but i feel still there is room for better battery performance as compared to other roms in this forum. There is a bug in clock as it never allows to adjust the time.

Hope to see more of your works in future.:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] phankhi:
clock is ok with me, am able to ajust time.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] imtiyazee:
I did hard reset twice to get rid of this, but eventually failed. When i select clock & Alarm in settings, i can change time zone and time but cant change date and I;m sorry just realised that i left a wrong feedback with regards to clock, its not clock instead it's DATE.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
ok with regards to the battery i've run a test. off charge at 08:45 this morning. normal use including:

60 mins (in total)web browsing

90 mins music

30 mins reading

30 mins on the phone

50 emails received

it's now 18:04 and the battery is at 66% i don't call that bad my self? other views?

ive just tried the date.

pressed the clock to go into the world clock

menu>set time and date

clicked on the date and selected from the calander and it worked fine??? date changed???

am i doing something different to you?

regards

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] imtiyazee:
Hello Chef,

As i wrote earlier, last night when i went to bed my battery charge was 75% and after 8 hrs of sleep when i crosschecked it was 64%, so a discharge of 11% is sleepmode, and regarding the **** and alarm, when i'm trying to hit the drop down menu for date change it wont work, instead i have to use the keyboard arrows to change them. That was an honest feedback, nothing more than that, rest all fine.:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
thanks for your edit:) i've had a thought as to why i didn't notice this.

i've got my emails to set to auto download every 15 mins. i don't stay on the tab to wait for them. i just go to it when i get an alert and they are there.

would that help you
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
thats fine, i can only fix what i know about. feedback is what i'm after. i'm just puzzled as using the above it works fine, i'm not certain which route you are using. can you be more specific? i'll look into it for an update if i can replicate it

cheers

Chris
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] imtiyazee:
Can you be more specific, as i din't get by ROUTE ? Iam on radio 2.10, with Cookie hometab 1.7.1, and some thirdparty warez like skype, numbuzz, thats it.

If no other member reports it, then something wrong with my flash, but to my knowledge i used task29 and flashed twice but situation remains the same.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
ok, first i'm not using cookie, just the plain old boring un-modded sense.

press on the clock

press 'menu'

press 'set time and date'

click on the date and then select from the calander that appears.

it works fine. is this the same way with cookies mod?

if it's different could someone who is running this without mods try and let me know. it may be an issue with the mod?

if not, what exactly are you pressing? in order?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] -Vulture-:
Nope, it wouldnt, cause i dont have a flatrate, so i dont want my phone to connect to anywhere automatically. But never mind, ill guess ill have to live with this bug for a while^^...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
sorry mate, if its down to sense itself im not certain I can fix it without loosing the documents tab. and I use it a lot.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] imtiyazee:
As i wrote, I'm trying to set time by going to SETTINGS then CLOCK & ALARM, there the problem is, I'm sure you will notice if you try to set date it wont work, you are correct if we try through manila it works but not with clock and alarm icon in settings, In that sense you are true in ur statement, so am i. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
rofl, now I get you... I've never tried setting them like that.

I'll have a look at this for the next update..

I must be thick, didn't get what you meant at all. rofl...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] -Vulture-:
Yeah me too, i like the documents tab a lot. Dont worry about it, i hope there will be a fix with future sense versions or maybe DiegisOn from the CleanEX-team can help me out. Otherwise i have to live with it. Its just a phone :) ...

Hi there!

Im taking your ROM for a deeper spin this time. The first thing ive noticed: Wheres HTC's YouTube app? I know, you said you'd prefer to download the clips, but why not including the app? Can you make a cab for those wanting the stock app, cause this youtubeplay looks ugly like hell ;). Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
new build uploaded

hi folks,

update links uploaded. this is mainly a bugfix edition. lots of tweaks, hotfixes and stability boosts. i've also been playing with HTC Messaging Client to try to improve the performance. for ref the bug in post 2 still seems to stand even with the changes. no changes to the apps, look or feel in this one

enjoy

rofl, youtubeplay may look ugly but i havn't used the HTC app even when i build it in.

if i get requests i'll add it in the next build.

also considering adding the following if people will use them

Skype (i use all the time)

Coreplayer

other to follow

but i'm not willing to compromise the storage and will only add if people will use other apps

regards

Hi Chris,

Just flashed your rom couple hours. Finished setting up and customization.

Install TX background for All tab, TX remove calendar background, install Cookie Home Tab v.1.7.1.1 and CHT Editor v.1.7.1.2.

I set up my yahoo and aol emails account. Testing it by sending email from my PC (office mail). Already one hour but not yet received it.

Question: Do I need to set up the email manually?

Other than the above, I found no issue.

The ROM is fast and stable.

which programs are removed from this rom?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
nothing, all the base apps are included. i've removed some of the padding such as the sample music etc but the idea is to keep as stock as possible with a 6.5.X base.

the additions are simply the stuff i use;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] benveq:
then it is time to use ur rom :) today i will use it ! thanks again coz i've been lookin for a rom that is same as original rom but all programs updated! sorry but does it have worldcard mobile and jetprint? coz 224mb free storage! also does it include wm marketplace or wlm?

Hi Chef,

I want to report about the ROM.

-Core play didnt play .flv perfectly, i mean i cant see the picture, everything is blurred

- "You tube play" cause phone freeze

- Leo Cpu Speed also cause phone freeze

The email is working perfectly now. But e reader without book ( how can I read it? LOL)

Hope those can be fixed.

Thanks for sharing your ROM.

Cheers
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
hi mate

to take these in order

coreplayer - it's probably a settings issue. i can assure you i use it every day (mostly at work, rofl) try changing the setting to either GDI or raw frame buffer

i've used youtubeplay to download several videos following your question and it's not frozen my phone. can you be more specific so i can try to duplicate.

what setting are you using on cpu speed? i'm set to 998mz and running fine. screen shot attached. i DON'T advise overclocking in case you are trying this. the cpu thread does say this can freeze your device. more info in the thread LeoCpuSpeed v3 (with thanks to NetRipper) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=682663

ereader without a book? rofl i did state i'd removed the stock ones (i figured most would not fancy White Fang, Dracula etc) i added ebook manager so you can add your own

Manila E-Book Library Manager – all the ‘free books’ are removed from the eReader tab so you need to add your own!!! Please see this thread for more info on using this. Have to say it works brill http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=632517

there are numerous ways of converting books to Epub and threads within xda posting epub books. i'd start at the thread as this shows you how to add them (again screen shot attached to show how they look).

if you clarify over coreplayer and youtube play i'm happy to look further but if i can't duplicate
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] silverwind:
Hi Chef,

Thanks for you quick response. I really appreciate that.

For the coreplayer issue, I will try to follow your suggestion.

For Youtube player, it frozen after I play .flv file. (bcos I cant use the coreplayer at that time, and does the size of the file matter? may be its because the file is quite big. But its okay Chef, i can live with that (wink)

For the LEOCPU, you are right. I was trying to overclocked it, just touched the button and it frozen, It was my mistake.

For ereader, I dont think its important, but it is like a sweetener to me (LOL)

I should really thank for your quick advice, again.

Cheers,
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] chrisd1a1:
no probs, i'd have a look at this thread for the best settings for coreplayer btw:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=673459&highlight=coreplayer

i do tend to use it for watching avi rather than flv as i move them over from the pc.

as for youtubeplay, it is an old application (from 2007/2008) and i am noticing the updates to youtube security are effecting more videos so i am considering removing it at some stage, i just love the download option though:(

if you want the ebooks try here
