I have installed 21667 GTX and I am very satisfied with results, fast, smooth and great looking.

Question tho, I noticed this on other ROMs with cookie hometab 1.8.5 that the icons that appear on the home tab are not the same as on the start menu.

For example camera icon, with GTX theme the icon look like a nice DSLR but on the home tab it looks like the default HTC camera icon, is there a solution?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] adam20pl:
Sanjeev one quick question. I am confused as many of the new version came out. Which one Should I choose and why? Will all be supported?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pathologo:
I noticed this, too. I don't know why this happens.

But you can fix it yourself:

With a registry editor check which icon is used in [HKLM\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start\...]. Also check there if the .lnk names match the names in your start menu.

Then go to [HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Home\...] and change the path to the icon.

Also check and change the icon path when you want to use some new of the great icons from d.signs (see here and here).

I really want to try one of your ROMs since they look very handsome.

I'm a bit hesitant though because you said there is something wrong with the base?

When I want to flash a 6.5.x ROM, should I wait for an update or is everything fine and I simply misunderstood?

Help Me, Please.

I have a problem. I was trying to flash this to my phone, and then, during the process, It made me Task 29. I have no clue what happened. I flashed that. And then the next step was to flash a custom ROM. After the Task 29, the phone didn't even recognize being plugged into a computer, so, that means I can't finish my flash. It ...keeps saying check connection. It's connected, and it won't go past the 'Stick Together' screen. Then, I turned to trying to remove HSPL via SD Card because I figured it would redo everything and I would just be back to stock. That doesn't work for me like it did for the guy in the video. Ugh. So, now, I've got a shell of a phone that doesn't even boot. Someone help me?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
There are a couple of posts on this page that will show you what you did wrong, it is nothing major ...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :
After the post above, I recommend that either a Readme.txt be included with the ROM's or just include a standard flash exe.

Yeah I know , that means that if a standard apps is included that people will not be forced to task29.

But almost better that then so many doing it wrong, because they have never researched , and learned how to use the phone enough to know how to get to the bootloader.

I will use this analogy one more time ....

You don't go out and by a brand new Porsche, then take it home and try to swap out the motor till you KNOW what you are doing , same thing applies to flashing a ROM on a $400 phone, read and learn then flash.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] :

Hey I got it, use a self extracting archive that launches the readme.txt with the flashing procedure, that way if they don't know, then they just did not READ, and have no excuse ...

Sanjeev, your roms are legendary! Hands down, my favorite rom series on XDA! Everything in your roms is of the highest quality, second to none, and literally "Bleeding Edge"! I felt it necessary to express my gratitude for your amazing work. [warning, friendly suggestion...lol] The only thing that would make your roms even better would be the cooking in of XDA_UC. Thanks again for your magnificent work :D

I am a VBNROM Addict! (I will be posting this on my signature once I get signature privileges)

P.S. Expect a donation in the coming months once I am able and have straightened-out my financial situation at college.

P.S.S. I've noticed that the battery life with your roms is indeed much better than stock. I don't know how you do it, but I surely do appreciate it.

Question for Sanjeev

Hi Sanjeev!

I really like your ROM BLACK BUILDS ••• 24622 , it is really one of the best that i know. But the only problem that i have is that i use the music player and i notice that there is something wrong with it. And the problem that i have is that when there is more than 1GB the player does not work any more and it just searches for the music but does not play it. But when there is only for example 100MB of music it works perfect.

I really like you ROM and i would really like to keep it. So if you would be so nice and corect the problem that i have i will donate to you as many beers as ou want. :-)

Thank you in advance and it would really help me a lot!

Best wishes, Sasho

question about this ROM (suspended or not).

Does it actually utilize the full tmous RAM (576mb)? Apparently nrgz ROM doesn't utilize it (per pyrorob), and I don't think the ROM I am testing does either.

Just curious

One thing confuses me, I bought my phone here in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and i have tried different custom roms. I always read that always use the .50 radio before flashing custom roms. In your Legacy GTX Beta 3, you said there that we need to use the .51 radio. Sorry for asking this noob question but i'm afraid to brick my phone. :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] v-b-n:
As long as your phone is NOT T-MOBILE US model.... Legacy build is safe for you and best with .51 Radio .... do you remember what radio you had on your Stock ROM when you bought the phone ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] dusdus:
Hi Sanjeev,

First of all, thanks for your rom! I'm using chucky rom at the moment, loving it :-), but I had some issues with my battery (drain). I'm using 2.11.50_26 now and still I'm not really satisfied.

Because I'm from Holland and Birk posted: EDIT: forgot to say if your on a European HD2, you may want to try VBNROM

I ended up here :-)

Do you still advice us to use 2.07.51_xx radio?

EDIT: Ah I just read you advice a .51 rom, still the 2.07 too?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] v-b-n:
I still prefer the old radios as they give good quality and best battery for me in Singapore ... I would recommend 2.07.51.22_2 and even try out 2.06.51.07. If both perform sub-optimal there is a 2.09.51.xx also....

Radios are quite a subjective issue and one can only try out all to find out which perform best in their region
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] pongskie:
Weeee! Yes sir! I remember before it was 2.6X.51.XX something like that. Well I guess this is a go signal to flash your rom! I'm still @ work right now and waiting for more 1 hr to get home then i'll flash your rom asap! Thanks again for the advise and for the prompt response!

Gonna post some more reviews later if i'm not lazy enough.. :p

Edit: Oh it's working it's just that you have to tap the icon a bit longer that usual.. Looks like the softkeys dont respond too much on tapping.. you really have to tap and hold for awhile.. any advise sir? plus some of the apps are not working like the LeoCPUSpees and CF3DConf

Everything's looking good and i hope things go smoothly for you and you'll continue cooking! :)

Take care bro! :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] gabriel.twl:
Hi sanjeev, just tested a quick one through beta2 black. Same problem as the user mentioned as quoted. The start menu icon gotta press and hold before it actually opens up. I think there will be a quick fix around it. I notice the text messaging is sluggish. From a clean flash, i tried to compose a new text message and found it to be a little laggy and not really registering my touches, i think it has to do with the messaging client? Maybe you could change it? Pardon me, because i text alot. :D However i like the nice fonts and new gtx keyboard! Looks great.

There is also missing shortcuts for fingerkeyboard etc. under tools, things such as leocpuspeed as well, missing icons and shortcuts? I would think the overall touch sensitivity could be a little bit better? Otherwise everything is looking great atm, looking forward to final release, battery i haven't got to monitor yet, but it drains okay atm, however not at the incredible management like yours although with the final release, i hope to enjoy it too :) Maybe you could take a look into the issues? I'm looking forward! :) cheers!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] v-b-n:
Yes...will be making a max tabs version once the basic one is little bit on the stable side and minor issues have been taken care of :)

I noticed that too...will fix in next build...

Camera is fixed in Black version only... I missed out cleaning the shortcuts...so some apps there but shortcut missing and some apps not there but shortcuts are present :o ...

All issues are noted and will fix them in next build of both GTX & Black !
