Greaat!!! ;)

Greaat!!! ;)

V will be greaat I guess!!! ;)

I think BlackNew has the correct customization in. With version V taskbar/bottombar aren't transparent anymore. So only the nice taskbar icons, CHT and the great (removable) start menu are in, perfect.

Stock icons are really ugly!!!

Here I have a suggestion for "V". Please have a look at FireStorm Icons... I think they are really nice and better looking than dinik ones (or in other words FireStorm icons aren't as "geeky" as dinik ones so they fit better to the rom in general I think)

Really can't wait for your "V" version Kenia :cool:
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hmmhmm1222:
Sounds great! now i am excited! version V :) i second the firestorm icons, they are nice and yet not to "shiny"

a side question, i tried changing some of the icons "manually" but i could not,i thought i did but when i softreset the old ones was still there....?

in WM 6.5 i know like three different ways one can go about it, but on 6.1 i am fumbling in the dark....
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
Thank you all guys for your words...

but now I think that the better way to set a new iconset is something like expressing your opinion about it...

which iconset do you prefere?? please link to your favourite iconset and I will choose the best one!!

dinik are starting to annoy myself too... :)

thank you for your opinion Heart1010 firestorm is a gooood iconset...

let see what other users say about it...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] xmexme:
Is it able to customize the home screen clock and weather something like this?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] met67:
Hum... I like firestorm icons much more the the old ones...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
but it looks nothing like the preview 6 stock MaxSense :confused:

[YOUTUBE]9L-iGjS1T7w[/YOUTUBE]

And, I agree that the icons in the video aren't what I am after, mainly its the widget transparency, I do not like the black plasticly look at all :/
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bgumble:
which iconset do you prefere??

Since the decision does not fall for stock icons, I would vote for the DINIK's "HD2" IconSet.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
are the icons in your signature image the firestorms? because those and cloudys are some of the nicest ive seen, they're sharp and not overdone.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bgumble:
they are DINIK's "HD2" IconSet

and

here are Firestorm
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tino1708:
i vote for dinik hd2 iconset to.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
So we gotta most of votes for this Dinik HD2 Iconset...and I like it so much...

so it's probable we will have this iconset in BlackNew V...

thanks for the link...

however the poll is still opened if someone else would like to express his opinion...

as regards MaxSense version...by the time Max will upgrade MaxSense I will work on another MaxSense ROM...if I gotta time...but I will not skin this anymore...so that you'll find the default icons..
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] paspa86:
Hi Kenya, great rom, plus I'm italian so finally I'm using an italian ROM. Will be great if you can include the leo album with quick share of video and photo to facebook, is the only thing i really miss.

You rock dude.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
I know mate...but WM 6.1 doesn't allow this...

I use the newest album usable on WM 6.1...the one from Sprint Rhodium 1.21 Album 3.0.1915...

grazie cmq...

saluti! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eurocat63:
+1 for dinik hd2 iconset.;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] antoniomiceli:
+2 for dinik hd2 iconset
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
both are great, especially the open folder and the transparent background icons in the firestorm thread!

^ this and trasnarent widgets like that Preview #6 video I posted and I would be in love with such a 6.1 + MaxSense rom.

the HD2 iconset has the added convenience of being pre-cabbed which is excellent, although I dont know where to start for making the sense widgets have a transparent background. :/
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
CHT & CHTEditor - Can these please be left out of BlackNew V?

Unless I've missed something (and I often do!), I'm personally not totally convinced that I would benefit from the latest version of CHT (1.8.0).

Which of the features are people excited by in the latest update? The sliding calendar in particular frustrates me as it seems to change by itself.

Kenia - Would it be possible to leave it out of BlackNew V so that people can install the version they prefer afterwards?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
So there will be dinik HD2 iconset...

anyway dear mattster I am working with cookie to make next version of CHT fully compatible to WM 6.1...

and anyway you can ever disinstall CHT since it's installed as a CAB in our BlackNew...just remove the program and here you go...there's no CHT anymore... :)

so I guess I can leave it by default...

PS : BlackNew V could come with Sense 2016...way faster than 2012... :) but it isn't already sure...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Sounds promising!

I don't think I use any of the following programs.... I want to therefore uninstall them but I'm not 100% sure if I unknowingly need them?:

Mort's MortScript?

Marketplace bootstrap?

Dreaming With Objects?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
MortScript is necessary for some stuff...I suggest not to touch it...it takes something like 500kb...

Marketplace I guess there's nothing to explain... :) it's marketplace for WM 6.1..

The other one is Dial-up Enabler/Disabler...a great tool to set up your preferences as regards data connections...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Great, glad I checked with you. I'll leave them in.

Thanks Kenia.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
you're welcome my friend!! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Speactra:
I am really happy with BlackNew III. It's the best ROM i've tried since i bought the phone.

Now time to try IV :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
Thank you...anyway...maybe it's time for V... :):)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] netsriht:
Thumbs up... hope to see it soon

BTW greetings from Germany to Italy and ... good luck for this evening, you know what I mean :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
I know I know...

hope to enjoy a good match this evening... :) and compliments for yesterday...of course you know what I mean... :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pillipau:
I'm nervous and wanting to test the Blacknew V.

Thank you for your work that makes us enjoy both.

Regards
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hmmhmm1222:
i come with an idea, challange pherhaps :) anyone remember back in tha day when manila 2.1 came? not sense 2.1, but when you pressed start you got that "programstab"lookish startmenu? would that be possible to integrate with this new sense2.5? if i remember that was a package of its own, been a while since i cooked :D

i suspect it does not work, but i think it would be a good addition to this marvelous rom! anyone wanna stone me for that suggestion? :D or what you think kenia? i know you know your way around the startmenu and tweaking and skinning

Active Sync issue

Hello

I reinstalled Windows and Outlook and now I cannot connect my phone via ActiveSync. It says Syncing but nothing happends...

Later edit: I chose Keep item on the device and then it synced.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Heart1010:
Hmmm, sounds a little "strange and outdated" for me ;)

Why someone wants that!? If you want a "programstab" you have that xy shortcuts possibility from CookiesHomeTab directly on your home screen!?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] met67:
Would it be possible to include this?

[NEW]Messaging Client 2015/2016*With Secure Box/No loading bugs/

I don't know if it is compatible with 6.1, but looks nice :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] istoica:
Not a programs tab. Is just that the look on the current default start command it's kinda... crowded. Something more readable and dhumb friendlier.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
It will be included!! :)

anyway thank you all guys!

BlackNew V is on the way thanks to Co0kie!! he managed to get lockscreen working over WM 6.1 and so BlackNew V is coming very very soon...possibly tomorrow... :)

it will include new Manila Core 2015...new home tab remanaged by HTC...if you disinstall CHT...

as already said HTC Messaging 2015 which works pretty fast over our great WM 6.1...

and...where's WM 6.1 anymore?? :) we'll got a perfectly funcional and fast Sense 2.5 on blackstone...the fastest you can see... :) thanks to this new Manila Core...

greets...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
Nice! blacknew V will include the new icon set too right? :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
of course...but I thought it was the less important thing...that's why I didn't mentioned it... :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] TheDeadCPU:
Hmm.. Do you have a screenshot of this remanaged home tab?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] r_9:
look forwards to try your new rom!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Great news Kenia. Looking very much forward to it.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hansfx:
Great, this is what i am looking for. Win6.1 + Sense 2.5 !

Can anybody tell me please something about the akku performance.

My current win6.5 version runs only 1,5 days.

The stock rom runs 3-4 days.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hmmhmm1222:
geniuses often walk alone :) i think that is why kenia is the only one that keeps delivering 6.1 :D with the latest and greatest sense experiences.

Looking forward also trying this speed monster out
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Heart1010:
BlackNew IV runs here 2(-3) days...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
For the guy who asked for the Home tab WITHOUT CHT...here it is :

as you can see there's a pretty nice RSS reader and the quicklinks are in 4 coloumns...

BUT...I passed these packs to cookie and he said that he's working on the integration of a RSS reader in his next version of CHT...so...in my opinion it's better to leave CHT as it is... :)

anyway battery life is way way way longer than WM 6.5.x...but of course Sense 2.5 consumes more resources than the oldest touchflo 1.3... :)

so compared to stock it drains a little faster...

but if you compare it with a WM 6.5 battery drains way way slower! :)

anyway hope you'll enjoy BlackNew V...I m waiting for Cookie's answer before relasing my works...so it's not depending on me... :) my works are ready.. :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
Kenia, is that a custom taskbar or does it look like that and is stock because of what base winmo you're cooking with? (i dont know exactly how to explain it, i just thought the HTC theme had different top task icons) :)

Also, whats the chance of me being able to get the HTC theme with the icons like that in the screenshot of mine in my signature as a cab or something? I look forward to your V theme, I've procrastinated so far with trying out your cooked roms but I will flash to V, I havent decided weather I'll try CHT or not CHT (if you release both) but look forward to trying it out :)

sorry, also does the MusicTabLandscape.zip make all of Sense gsensor enabled, or can I enable that functionality with gsensor config with your cooked roms if you know?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] etere:
Hi magic Kenia1234!

Is only my problem the strange graphic sovrapposition in the top bar or is a know problem?!?!?

E' solo un mio problema o c'è una strana sovrapposizione grafica nella barra superiore (le icone di stato)???

Aloha!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] antoniomiceli:
no lo fa anche a me

no it does to me
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
As regards topbar..i'm gonna make a more stock graphic...but if you want...you can even install my customized topbar...I will attach a cab...

as regards CHT...you can disinstall it whenever you want...because it's a cab!!! so no different version...if you don't want CHT just remove it.. :)

greets!

already fixed for the next version!

Tutto sistemato per la prossima! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
Nice! I can't wait to flash to your rom, hanging out for the release!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
It could sound strange for you...

but I m waiting for it too... :)

I mean I m waiting for CHT and CHT editor 1.8.5... :):)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
I love the Frankenstein Wm6.1+Sense2.5 cooked roms.

Before you and cloudy starting cooking them again, I was on Miri's proof of concept rom.

theyre the only ones where I can use the Sense music player and play a game (such as zenonia rpg) at once, no 6.5.x rom ever leaves enough resources to multitask such a thing so smoothly, and sure the phone is not an intended gaming device but I must have multitask capability, the only real let down I find with my HD is video playback, which I really don't care about anyway haha.

its really good to see the cooks releasing these kinds of roms, 6.5.x is not really suitable for our hardware, nor is sense 2.5 but at least with these roms, we keep the speed and have the looks with little to no bugs :)

thanks Kenia, can't wait.

edit: i take back what i said about video, SD video works fine with the latest coreplayer
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Raptordin:
I have installed CHT 1.8.0 on Black New III and it is working fine without the ability of having a background screen which actually does not bother me.

I guess the next addition to your Roms will be excellent.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bgumble:
So your rom (incl. Sense 2015/2016) is ready to release, except that you want to add the latest CHT and CHT editor?

Could you please release a version without CHT now?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Raptordin:
+1 that request for the time being as I can already use CHT 1.8.0 with no Background for all which I do not really care about that much.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
yes...if CHT will not come until next few days I will relase it without CHT probably...

anyway the upcoming CHT will solve the background issue too... :):):)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
is the issue that with CHT on a wm6.1 rom you cant have background for all tabs?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
Exactly...it will be fixed in next version of CHT...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bgumble:
it's about the lockscreen issue (1.8.0 lockscreen isn't working with wm6.1, have a look at changelog),

but there might be another one with the background
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
Hope it gets all fixed up, I love bg4all tabs :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
it will be without any doubt...already tested by myself... :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hmmhmm1222:
when is it coooming!!!!!!! i do not know if i endure wait beyond this very moment :P

joking, CHT is uninstallable for anyone that dont like it, so no need cook two versions. But just my opinion :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] pecoshek:
GTX on BlackNew?

First of all I have to thank Mr. Kenia for stunning work and WWE version of his rom . My main rom since BN II. Well done mate! (6JA866425J114794L)

Anyway, I'm trying to change the look of the rom to GTX. The screen in GTX is far more easy to read on the direct sun than the original. Changing the Sense is easy, just by .cab and everything works well. But is there a theme or way how to bring wm6.1 look closer to GTX? Can anyone help, please?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
in fact my friend...no different versions...

anyway I m waiting too...version without CHT would come if Co0kie wont relase until tomorrow... :)

Thank you!!!

very thank you for your nice donation!!! :)

anyway I m sorry but I can't help as regards this...WM 6.1 graphic cannot be changed like WM 6.5 one...so you can't do anything except skinnig Sense/Dialer/Keyboard and other stuff... :(
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] hmmhmm1222:
that is great, we can most of us install cookies when its done :) by ourselves.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
In fact...

probably this evening the final relase... :):) without CHT (a little faster)

I m sorry for WWE users but I didn't manage to get HTC Messaging 1.8 working on WWE ROMs...don't know why...but thanks to this :);) everything in incredibly fast and smooth...and ram is 35%...so don't think it's a tragedy... :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] first_damned:
Thats good news that you couldn't get htc messaging working I can't stand it lol
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] r_9:
In fact, I don't mind waitting for a little bit longer for a more better rom.

But as what you've mentioned seems to be already almost perfect, I will love to try it our now!! :p:p
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Heart1010:
That means WWE users gets the sms/messages thing exactly like it was/is in IV?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
yes...hope you don't mind...

I tried to install HTC Messaging 1.8 which is a little faster...so it suits pretty well...even if the IV messaging is still a little more responsive...

buy I didn't figure it out...

Messaging 1.5 is tooooo slow...

so the things will be the same of IV...

PS : ROMs in upload...

this evening online!! pretty cool and super fast!! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Tigermoto:
Hmmm

I'll be honest, i never thought i'd try this ROM.

WM6.1 and Sense 2.5 sounded a little bit too much like a pipedream, but after reading throughout this thread (all 449 posts) i think it may be worth a go.

When the Blacknew V arrives will it include a version with Maxsense 1.01 (i.e 6 quicklinks and battery/RAM Meters) or will it be 1.00 without them?

By the way, CONGRATULATIONS! It would appear you have managed the impossible. No one believed it was possible to make a good WM6.1/Sense 2.5 work properly.

Regards,

Tigermoto.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] qwertylesh:
Actually Miri made the very first, and its still available for download, albeit very buggy compared to the two newest ones the cooks have released.

I wouldn't have been active in both threads asking and nagging along with others for such a rom to be made if I did not experience first hand just how light on resources Wm6.1+Sense2.5 really was.

Looking foward to task29 + flashing Blacknew V, i probably will have to wait until tomorrow myself as I only have an hour now before I'll have to wait 16 hours or more before I get enough time to download and flash.

Still, im very excisted to try it out and am eager to get a build that boots with only 35 percent ram used!!! :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Speactra:
Downloading V now! :)

IV works like a charm ;)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
blacknew v online at 1st post!!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Great timing!

Downloading now. Thanks Kenia.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] barisahmet:
V is way more smooth when I compare it with IV. Nice work :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
thank you! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bgumble:
thanx so much!

will test it the next 2 weeks on holiday!
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcclane:
Can we get some screenshots of the V and maxsense versions?

:D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
There is 1 screenshot per ROM at 1st post... :) maxsense belongs to BlackNew IV..remember that! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] stylesp:
very nice ROM, thx!

Running V with maxsense, however it seems to bug a bit for me with landscapemode, i.e. if I'm using landscape in opera mobile and exit the program the UI gets messed up, basicly what happens is that it displays as portrait but the height is only the height of landscape mode - so half the screen isn't used.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Super fast so far... really impressive touch response.

Questions:

1. Am I right that no CHT has been pre-installed?

2. There seems to no longer be a shortcut to switch off animated weather anymore... how does one therefore switch off animated weather?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kenia1234:
1)CHT is not cooked in...read changelog...

2)it's a CHT feature!! :)

anyway thanks...

MAXSENSE ROM ISN'T BASED ON V BUT ON IV... :)

ps I guess your bug is a maxsense bug...not a bug of my ROM...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kristaps-K9-Lv:
on blacknew v

1-how can you get high quality wallpapaers for all tabs?

2- how can you get rid of top and bottom curtains in manilla and change the flip clock to sprint clock or something...

without installing cht or maxsense (cause they slow down the phone)

I tried HDWall, some cabs, max tf3d theme maker - none works!!

Kristaps :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
Sorry, whereabouts in CHT is the option to switch off weather animation starting? In previous ROM there was the option to place a shortcut, i.e no need to go into CHT.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Kristaps-K9-Lv:
to get rid of the Animated weather, just choose Home wallpapaer -> Animated wallpapaer, and then go into My Wallpapaers, and selecta still wallpapaer, not animated! :D

RSS reader

ciao Kenia, ROM davvero veloce! ma come faccio a togliere RSS reader dalla home, continua a rimanere l'icona con una scritta IDS_ENABLE_RSSREADER...

Ottima comunque!!! :D

sorry but i can't translate in english....... :(

I preferred having a shortcut to switch it off and on when I liked. I'm looking for a way to restore it but no luck as yet....

Landscapemode

I also I have this problem.

With the turn Blaknew IV worked fine display with Manila, but not now.

Thanks Kenya that fantastic Rom, just the problem of landscape.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Mattster_spv:
The graphics on V are outstanding, a vast improvement on 1V.

I think choice of CHT version will depend on user taste (I personally prefer 1.7.1 to 1.8.0), so it's a good idea to leave it out.

The new Manila core is noticeably faster, much faster in fact!

However... no landscape support is quite a price to pay... (and if you install a cab fix you then get automatic rotationstart which can be a pain). There also seems to be an issue with Manila not re-starting after making a change in CHT. A message comes up saying you will have to restart it manually.

I hope the next version will have the same landscape support as seen in 1V.

I've just gone back to 1V and it is slower, but landscape support is kind of important for me... torn between the two now!
