darksystem - there is no screenshot attached, can you attch as this will help Shu sort the issue if it is a ROM issue!

Forelli - I agree with your points here, this is a basic, no frills ROM and as such people know what they are getting, to start adding additional apps. to the ROM will defeat the purpose of the "Clean" element of it. I also think that the batttery does drain a little faster than previous ROMs, but this can be affected by the Radio ROM, which one are you using? I will be monitoring my battery over the next couple of days to see what happens!

I have checked the YouTube application (including George carlin) and it is working fine on my ROM (Cruzer-v3). I don't think that Flash is installed in any of Cruzer's ROMs, so it is either a connection issue or an issue with the Youtube app. itself.

My feedback is that this is a good fast ROM, I have not had any issues in the last 36 hours of use apart from minor screen corruption when switching to an app. from CHT, but i think that that is a CHT issue as it has been reported by other users in the CHTv2 thread. Given my comment above about not adding any other apps. to this version, I think that the only necessity is XDA_UC or similar (e.g. Tom's Autoinstall) for customisation purposes given the "cleaness" of the ROM itself.

Shu you have proved that simple is often the best route and making a ROM loaded with apps. and eye candy is not always the best thing to do - Thanks :D

Quick report

Just a few minor issues during last day on this very nice ROM:

1. During OOB (i.e. first boot) setup, if you hit "set local time" a white screen is presented.

2. If you need to setup a new wireless network connection, tapping on "Add a Wi-Fi Network" in manila you will have a white screen. The network can however be setup in another way (Settings/System/Connections/Wi-Fi/Wireless Networks).

3. Under "Settings/Personal" folder the "old easy way" to setup the owner name (required by some apps during registration) is missing. To have it back: go to HKLM\ControlPanel\Owner and change Hide from 1 to 0 and then reset.

All the rest works like a charm. Fast, smooth and stable.

Thanks Shu for sharing your work, the rationale behind your Cruzer-3rd ROM is really good.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
Ok things i found not working as they should or need adjustment :D

Green Lines/white screen in Manilla when changing from homescreen to a tab or vice versa, Change Contacts to HTC People on Softkeybar, Cab Auto Install on first boot would be nice but not really necessary.

also could you send me your icons from the sofkeybar in 3rd series? i was messing around with cht and i forgot to save originals before i started overwriting :)

also since 3rd series is android like maybe a change of taskbar? :) android like
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Touchsense:
nice i like your rom !!!!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rouz.:
Many thanks

I want to thank everyone for trying the ROM and leaving feedback :)

I'm so glad that many of you are satisfied with the ROMs. I went through all the reported issues & requests, and hopefully I will get them fixed in the weekend.

once again, many thanks for your kind support, everyone :)

Thanks for taking your time to cook! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] henryxdam@gmail.com:
Sweet rom. i love it! Although it did freeze on me today so i had to reflash

is there a way to change it so the original three arrow button on cht v2 (for the tab slider) is in the middle with like say... the android grid app draw icon :)

-Henry
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] uniqs:
Installed clean version and love it, thank you, Shu. There is a strange problem - the hardware call button does not work, i.e. when I press it - nothing happens. However when I open contacts list and then press this button - dialer appears as expected. Could somebody help me to solve this problem? Thank you in advance.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
If you go inot the CHTeditor and select the "Soft Keys" option you can change the order of the Softkeys and there are three keys which you can assign your own program's to as well. If you want to change the icon of one of the pre-assigned keys, for instance the tabslide, save the icon as a png image with the name CHT_softkey_Tabslider.png and then copy it into the \windows folder using Total Commander to overwrite the exisiting icon. I would also suggest that you save a copy of the existing icon (possibly on your SD card) in case you want to revert back to the original icon. If you look through the CHTv2 thread you will find lots of tips on how to do this and other little tweaks to CHT

This is an issue caused by CHTv2 not the Cruzer ROM. It has been reported by alot of people on Cookie's thread. Not sure that there is a fix for it as yet but Cookie is looking inot it to try and solve it in the next release
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] uniqs:
Thank you for help, now I understand.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
Apparrently Cookie is looking at the CHTv2 issues early next week - so keep an eye on his thread to see when an update of CHTv2 is being released ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] greq333:
Sorry for asking this, just flashed Cruze2.

Did everything accordingly Task29, then flash etc.

My question is following, what should I do when rom crashes? For example i just tried to install opera 10, and screen blacked out (phone went to sleep mode), after that i couldn't unlock it, slider seemed responsive, but nothing happened.

Also, how does the task manager work? When i tap the clock it just shows some menu, with battery, audio icons etc.

Please advise :)

EDIT: Now it just hang when i was browsing contacts. Please give me some advice to make it stable :)

EDIT2: Radio 2.12.50.02 and HSPL 1.42, EU Leo
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] uniqs:
Thank you again, I'll follow the original CHT thread.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hitekredneck:
File explorer bug / Android RoboVoice

First off, let me say that I really love this ROM. Looks great, fast and is very stable. It does run Android pretty reliably as well. I do have a couple of little problems that I would like to iron out if possible because I do want to continue running this ROM.

#1 - Where is the Start Menu icon located? I have no way with this ROM to run programs other than creating a quick link in CHT and running it that way. I would like the ability to click on the start menu icon and browse my programs and settings like in all other WinMo builds. If it exists in this ROM I just plain can't find it.

#2 - When I open file explorer and other programs as well, I have no "X" button in lower right corner to close out the programs. Is this a bug, or was the ROM designed this way purposely? I have to hit the home key to get out of the program(s) and that just leaves them running in memory.

#3 - When using the loader with more than one build of Android on the SD card, I tend to get the robot voice when running the ones that are not physically located in the "Android" directory (ie: Android2, Android3, etc). Is this a known problem? The build of Android that is giving the robot voice was working great until I renamed its directory to something other than "Android" and set the rel path= to the new directory name in the startup.txt

I apologize if any of these questions have been asked or answered previously, I just did not have time to read through 40 odd pages of posts on this ROM and the search function did not locate what I was needing.

One more thing, IMO, Arkswitch would be a very nice addition to this ROM for task management duties.

All in all a great ROM, you are definitely headed in the right direction, clean and fast and looking good!

Best regards ..... HTR
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
start menu icon is the one on the far left. either way you can turn it off or customize it with cht. if you turn of cht softkeybar you will get the old one back

this has been cooked for a long way like this. just simply use back hardware button. if you want the x button you can install start menu cab from the first page

sorry dont know :) i only use one build at a time and its grand here :)

i think the reason why no task managing program has been included cause different people like different task managers and putting one of them on might not suit others and just be a waste of space :)

though i use it too :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tinuz97:
Yep,also robo voice here....with Dutty's build (3.14) no robovoice :rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] henryxdam@gmail.com:
Thanks Thunderer64! Cant believe i didnt see that! i was looking for custom settings!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hitekredneck:
Thanks for the quick response evolutionqy7, with your help I have gotten everything sorted out except for the robovoice glitch.

One thing I have noticed is hat there is nowhere in this rom to set up owner information.Shu, could you possibly incorporate that into the rom as it is needed for certain paid programs to be registered and fully functional? A cab would be fine but I am thinking that there are probably more than me out there that will need this in the future.

Thanks again ..... HTR
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
i use gaz touch tools suite to enable ownder settings you can also do this with B&B tweaks :)

enjoy the rom :)

though i have to say i have gotten a few freezes and slow downs...dont know what causes it though...pure random
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] uniqs:
Actually when you fill all details of contact named "Me" it implicitly fills owner info on your phone and you are able to register paid programs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hitekredneck:
Duh .... I knew that, but didn't remember it. Getting too old I guess, every time I learn something new I seem to lose something that I had learned earlier, my head is too full. Thanks for reminding me. :)

Thanks to evolution as well, I knew that also but forgot. LOL

HTR
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
its ok :) glad to help :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
i have now had the Cruzer 3rd ROm on my Phone for a week, the longest any ROM has been resident over the last 3 months or so!!!

Shu, it looks like you may have cured my addiction to flashing !!!!!! :eek::o:rolleyes::o:eek:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rouz.:
hahhaha, I'm glad to hear that thunderer :)

by the way, are you interested in sencity? I may release a sencity version soon + an updated version of Cruzer 3rd. Hopefully, it will fix all the reported issues :) (Including the robo voice on android)

Edit: I may release the updated (final) version of "Cruzer 3rd" after the final release of "CHT 2"
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
TBH i am more likely to stay with Cruzer 3rd, although I will have a look at Sencity if you release that :p

Also agree with the last comment about waiting until the final version of CHT is released before releasing the update of Cruzer 3rd. any issues in current version are minimal and do not inhibit use of or enjoyment of the ROM ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] GIO44:
You make a very good job, i ve adopted your rom !!! i'm now cause of you less addict of flashing :p cause all rock fine !!!!.

bravo :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g0nadz:
Hi Shu! Nice work here. I'm looking for a new rom as Energy is starting to have too many bells and whistles... Will you be updateing Cruzer - 2 with CHT2 final? I like it's design and look but I'm not really interested updateing into a beta.

Regards,

g;
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] sander2010:
Thanks for all the effort!

I DL'ed them both to check how they are.

Keep up the good work :)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hitekredneck:
Guys, I have yet another question. I have been running a couple of different android builds on storage card and the Android loader that came cooked in this rom is very handy. The question is regarding the Android loader, I set it to autoboot at 3 seconds, then today when I want to go back to Cruzer with Windows, I can't seem to divert the boot back into Windows. I did manage to get the autoboot increased to 15 seconds but I can't figure out how to stop it completely and load up windows. I have tapped on everything there is to tap on and it still runs Haret and heads right on into Android.

Any suggestions short of reflashing to kill it?

Thanks .... HTR
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rouz.:
Thanks a lot GIO :) I appreciate that

Thanks g0nadz :) I will definitely update the Cruzer - 2 (probably once the CHT 2 final is released)

As i said before, cruzer 3rd is not an updated version of cruzer - 2, its simply a different generation. so i will continue on updating both of them in my free time :)

Thanks sander :)

Turn off your phone, and take out the sd card, then try booting again. you should be able to boot into windows without the SD Card.

After that, try changing the application's settings from windows. If you still couldnt stop the autoboot, tell me, and i will give you a registry file to import.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] hitekredneck:
Duh! Smacking self upside head. Why in hell did that thought not occur to me?

Simple as that, took care of the problem.

Thanks Shu ..... HTR
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
Cruzer 3rd / Andriod

Shu, can you confirm that yoru Android loader programme is not on the "Cruzer 3rd" ROM?

Is it possible to include it?

As it is will be a couple of weeks or so before the updates are out due to CHTv2, can you provide a CAB so i can install this?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rouz.:
Exceller Multiple Build Loader for Android

I didnt include it in Cruzer 3rd, but you can find the cab on the dev's thread here

It's definitely the best android loader so far :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
Thanks - it's the next best thing to loading directly from the device
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
could you add marketplace and facebook to 3rd series in the next update please
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
:cool: seconded :cool: ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] forelli:
I don't agree: the rom is supposed to be clean, what you can install yourself, please install it and let the rom as clean as possible for the others. That's the point of having a clean rom, everybody can install whatever everybody wants on a clean base rom. I, for example, don't use facebook nor market place, only care about twitter, either with the twitter tab or with Motweets.

f.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
well a clean ROM should have the basics...marketplace atleast
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
Ultimately it is Shu's decison, BUT let's at least try and reach a sensible compromise. Following on from Forelli's thread I do not use Twitter but I use Facebook, so i do not really want Twitter included however I do recognise that other people do.

My thought is that as a clean ROM it should have the basics and that includes Twitter and Facebook Tabs as these are standard Sense functionality. Additional apps that can be downloaded and installed via CAB should be left out and installed as per individual requirements. Therefore I think Marketplace should probably not be included.

The decision though is Shu's he is the guy building these ROMs it is his concept.

i made a banner :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Thunderer64:
Been using Cruzer 3rd as a baser ROM for Android for the last 3-4 days. Excellent - no problems and no Robot voice with the Android ROM and Radio ROM I amn using :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] TommyHD2:
Great ROM, loving the layout and speed , only thing i can seem to do is get the weather animation on the main screen with the clock, any ideas ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
enter home layout edit mode and press on the clock widget and keep pressing next next next till you get what yo you want :P

Cruzer 4th (available on 26th)

Here is the preview of the next version of Cruzer ROM Series (Cruzer 4th) which will be available (Hopefully) on 26th October. Featuring the brilliant WinDroid theme by MrBeOTP2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] capxxx:
Excellent!! Cant wait!! Cruzer 3rd is also very stable and fast!! Will the 4th version comes with new style lockscreen?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] glenbo:
Thats great news, I only just recently installed version 3 and I am still very happy!.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] uniqs:
Great news, I'm waiting impatiently!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
will you still update "Back to Basics" Series?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ericv99:
very cool...looking forward to the new release.

I got away from Cruzer 3 because of a freezing issue I was having. but I defiantely miss these ROMs.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rouz.:
thanks everyone :)

Sure, I will update cruzer 2 and cruzer 3rd as well :)

Hey eric, can you tell me more details about the freezing issue? thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] HD2kty.:
Cruzer 3rd looks amazing!

Downloading now.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] radde:
Amazed

Hey Shu.,

just yesterday i more or less stumbled over your Curzed 3rd ROM and i'am totally amazed by it. It runs so smooth and it looks great. :cool:

I can't wait to get my handy on this Curzed 4th ROM, as i can tell from the Pictures, this will blow my mind! :eek:

Anyway: It seems i have an issue with one of the widgets of Cookies Home Tab. I added the Email widget and i can not use the 3 button it comes with, to compose a new message, delete a message and the menu button. Everything else works fine.

Any idea why this happens?

I installed the suggested Radio and did a Task 29 before i flashed everything.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tartagnan:
Maybe the quicklink rows are hidding this 3 buttons?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] radde:
oops.

Yes, this was the problem. :)

Strange, the quicklinks only where near, but didn't overlayed the buttons.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] ericv99:
i was freezing trying to get back to the home page. from email, closing opera, swyping sense tabs. I was using original sense softkeys and not the new cht softkeys.

I was thinking it may have been arkswitch...because ive had this happen before on other roms.

I wasn't using an android rom while this was occuring.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] HD2kty.:
Okay, I tested it ..

And I gotta say thats my fav. ROM from here !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] tartagnan:
Can't wait for Cruzer 4th! :d

It seems so gorgeous.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rouz.:
Cruzer 4th

Here is Cruzer 4th, available for download! but before that, ...

I was very pleased to find out that Cruzer 3rd has been downloaded for about 992 times (629 times from mediafire, & 363 times from VBN-files). To be honest, it was far beyond my expectations. So i would like to thank every one who tried this ROM, & also those who left feedback :) I deeply appreciate it.

And here is some details about Cruzer 4th...

The ROM is based on the official 3.14.531.1 update (fully TMOUS compatible) with updated packages from the latest Oboe and Huashan ROMs. I have also changed the compression to XPR which improves performance, but increases the image file.

Cruzer 4th comes with the amazing CHT2 theme, named "WinDroid V2 Autumn". Thanks to MrBeOTP2 for giving me the permission to cook it. All the credit for this brilliant theme goes to him :)

I have also included an Icon Pack, made by biernes_atrece, and suggested by my friend evolutionqy7. A very special thanks to both of them :)

This is the first beta release, completely re-made from zero. although I have been testing it for two days, I still need your feedbacks about issues, performance & etc.

For download, please refer to post #2. thanks

Edit: Updated version of cruzer-2 and cruzer-3rd will be uploaded next week, plus the latest version of kitchen.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] phoneXx:

hi Shu thanks for good work, i will test!!! :)

back from vcation..

whats up everyone....wow, i just came from a long vacation using cruzer 2nd...now its fourth one.....

time to test the best ROM for hd2......
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] igrind2:
i jus flashed cruzer 4th..seems nice just like cruzer 3rd...Hopefully i wont have the battery drain issue i was havin with 3rd..but overall excellent rom..ill give u more feedback later or tomorrow.. 1 thing i wish was different off top is the cloud animation how its cut off at the bottom of the quicklinks..but besides that nice clean rom :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] lx19910:
At first, very nice ROM like the V3 too ;)

But.... :D the notification bar doesn't work very well. The ROM does only show new SMS in the taskbar, but I think it depend on the CHT2.0 beta, or not?

The other thing is, that when you open the tabs slider that the writings under the icons are cut away at the bottom.

At last your lockscreen- slider is awesome, good work ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] g0nadz:
Cheers!

Will be waiting for Cruzer 2 with CHT 2 final, thanks Shu! By far the best and most stable ROM that I've had.

But it is a bit sluggish from time to time, cud this be caused by CHT being beta?

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] momirs52:
hi all

very good rom,I am very surprised...

I have a question

where the X button

and the OK button

thanks for the reply anyone
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] DR_ASHK:
hey man

i congratulate u for this ROM its fantastic job

i ask u to permits me to re tweet it in my account also

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] metallica1:
superb as always...

i just flashed and all i can say i WOW....

fast ,smooth, increased batt life, great theme, everything for me is working fine..

with some minor graphic glitches maybe due to the cookie?

....

i can say that this rom is one of the best...

..some minor suggestions shu ...( cab for 3 start menu? default games cab? and i suggest to pls bring back the footpirints and stocks tab?coz some of us need that.like me..:) ..just a suggestion.... ohh and how bout a cruzer COM2 Version..?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] evolutionqy7:
you can find enable x and ok cab on the first page Post #4

no need for bold or and big letters

yup thats cause of beta

you can find the cab for 3 item menu here in the stickies under sense tweaks and mods in either first or 2nd post
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rouz.:
This is a known CHT issue. the cloud animations are only until the default manila's slider. so once the slider is gone, you can see they'll cut off at the bottom

that could be caused by the new htc messaging, I will look into it, thanks for the report :)

Thanks man :) Sure you can retweet. thanks a lot :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Rouz.:
thanks a lot metallica :) I will add your suggestions, including the foorprint and stock tabs.

I'm also interested in releasing a COM2, but im not sure if others will like it or not. anyway, I may release a version just for testing :)
