Rom looks great but the links are dead, I know im flogging a dead horse by replying but please fix the links or something as there are nearly no roms for this phone that i can find that dont have a dead link
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] seatone:
Well, all those links from 2009-11 were mainly on rapidshare. Since there is no more RS you wont find them :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] CooLTool9:
Well on the bright side i learned how to use dsixdas android kitchen to cook one myself after trawling through here a bit more, I think it was a pine something for winmo 6.5. Worked great tho, extra smidge of support helps out. Would recommend

Won't Boot, gets to that white HTC screen and hangs. Used MTTY and then flashed it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Bardia Garsha:
Very good ROM

Dear Fido,

Thanks for all the hard work - it's really appreciated.

First impression: amazingly fast and stable. Everything works properly so far. Of course, you've stripped down the OS to its bone (obviously for RAM reasons) but it's really amazing to see Diamond to be so much snappy and fast :)

I just don't understand why the icon of each manila tab (when you are on that tab) is just a white box. For example, when I'm on Home tab, the little Home icon of the tab is just a white box ...etc.

Have you done it intentionally ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
yes is an manila mod
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] csjneek:
hi

i just flashed your latest rom, used mtty, flashed ok but after hard reset my phone wont turn on !

what to do ?

I test your ROM, I hope that is fast and simple, because now all coocked ROM are very slowly....

I write you if I find bugs

Many thanks for all your time ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BlackFriar:
Fantastic ROM, jerpelea. I'm impressed with the core performance and memory use. After 6 hours of use, free RAM is ~35.8MB (33%), which is fantastic for 6.5nk|2.5.

Few little things, the calendar tab has a black "2" in the center which looks like it just wasn't removed from the QTC file. I did it for me, but maybe change the [end call delay] to 0 from the now default 3 seconds?

Also, ran a little experiment:

I took 6 random PNGs from /Windows with total size of 72.1KB. I recompressed with my custom DEFLATE implementation and the result was 53.8KB. So, offer to help still stands.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BlackFriar:
Also, is there anyway to tweak the lockscreen brightness?

[HKCU/Backlight/Locklevel...] doesn't seem to do it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
on such low memory device

png optimisation is not about smaller files on device

we have enough storage

png optimisation must focus on used ram (reduce number of colors and lower compression)

ex:

FM_lcd_bg_p.png

32 bit - used space 30.7k - used ram 2.8Mb

grayscale -used space 9.32 - used ram 1.3Mb

indexed - used space 12.17 - used ram 2.0Mb

i have checked your deflate files

ram usage is the same but load time is increased by 4% you are using an higher compression level
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
does somebody know howto remove "all settings" softkey from settings tab?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] anilgh:
Hi there..

Can you advise if your ROM is good enough to be ported on an Indian Touch Diamond handset? Kindly reply at the earliest.

Many Thanks in advance,

Regards,

-ANil
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] BlackFriar:
I'm really loving the ROM, btw! Perhaps the best!

Uhm, I think the concepts in your example are actually orthogonal: bit/channel vs. encoder. I'm not disputing that an 8bit/channel grayscale+alpha image is preferable to a 32/channel RBGA. I'm not even going to get tangled up in discussing the pros-cons of indexing, but I'm most curious how you benched the 4% increase in rendering time.

The specifications of the IDAT chunk are defined in method 0; there are only 5 filter types. Altering the offline search parameters should not yield what you're saying. I'm curious where the 4% increase is coming from, especially since we're in the weeds of rendering.

Realize, we're on a HTC diamond where the bottleneck is in file access (loading) from storage, this is measured in perhaps 5-10X the time to render a PNG on a MSM7201A (Chainfire's CFC anyone?!). So, a ~10% decrease in file size should be much more noticeable. Perhaps if you said JPEG vs. PNG, but I'm scratching my head on this one. Any idea or help would be appreciated.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
i will send you all my pngs

and we can compare

maybe you are right

can you share your tool ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] imrock:
hey anil,

You can use this ROM just like any other rom on this site on the indian touch diamond, all you need to do is HardSPL your device. THIS site will provide you further instructions..

Dear chef,

Im glad to see such a great chef working for our diamonds, the hard work u'hv put in for compiling such a low RAM consuming rom definitely shows..keep up the brilliant work and thank you for all your efforts!!:D:D

I had a small problem, if i wanted to use the setting for enabling any key unlock from standby, how can i do that through registry??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
to powerup

Test reports

Hi just my little contribute:

major feature missed:

ezinput has only english as xt9 language

if I install ezinput provided by nikoan89 the phone won't boot

minor feature missed

bluethoot icon doesn't appear in taskbar if bt is on

Considering that is your first version 6.5/2.5

YOU ARE A GENIUS

I cooked many roms but I never g0t a so fast rom
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Stephan_X:
Oh,

maybe it is possible to extend ezinput for other languages too??
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fr_krg:
Downloading this rom now :) and I have a question. I had 1.17.25.09 radio, but I got poor battery life with that one so I switched back to 1.13.25.24. Which rilphone does this rom use and which radio do you recommend for this rom? thx
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
=>1.13.25.24 is ok
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] joyride76:
missed link settings

almost of the settings are manageable using the sense interface

anyway if you need to edit personal info for example:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Windows_Mobile/Links_And_Parameters#Links_for_settings

here is a way!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fr_krg:
Really great job

Wow, I have to say that this is the most impressing ROM I have ever used. The RAM usage is 65 % even after using landscape in both music and photo tabs, and the speed is buttery smooth. I'm really excited what can be done. The only minor thing is that there is no link to user info, which is bad because you need to enter it to use most programs. I advise you to at least put a link for it to the root of the storage named like "User info.lnk" with the target "ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,2" to make it easier to normal users. Also Facebook integration in manila is not working, but I don't really care about that. And also no task manager, I advise using Showcase task manager with the "X" extension. Nonetheless REALLY, REALLY GREAT JOB!!!!

Update: oh yeah, and the keyboard is a bit bugged, showing @ instead of , and .com _ instead of space
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] HTC0017:
Sense solution

People tab, look for ME: enter owner name.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
added owner info and screen calibrator to manila settings

if you need more options please ask and i will include in next release
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Blaze7:
ability to get to all settings will be useful, it looks like the start menu has disabled this.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] drjat:
any mirrors for 6.1?

i have been trying to download 6.1 rom since last 2 hours but without luck.

any mirrors?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
that is not possible

point wich setting is needed and i will add it

old control panel uses windows start menu engine and takes 8-10 mb of ram
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
little progress

087 - added owner info and touch calibration to manila settings

086 - replaced audio manager engine to save ram (0.5mb) and space (1.5mb)

085 - optimised all backgrouns for apps (thanks BlackFriar for new files)

084 - disabled manila texture compression(start menu speedup)

083 - disabled manila scroll

082 - increased cache with 2mb (from ram gain)

081 - reoptimised every manila texture

080 - reverted manila home

079 - reverted manila core

078 - optimised contact picker

077 - scaled contact editor and optimised it

076 - corected sim manager

075 - optimised dialer (thanks BlackFriar for new files)

074 - corrected keyboard and striped it down

073 - corrected Fm radio bug

072 - first public release

please do not ask for new sys or new features untill this rom is stable

also do not ask for wm6.5.3 new ui with start menu at bottom

many apps are still incompatible with that
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Blaze7:
will like to be able to get to Today and Buttons.

Also any chance of adding facebook integration.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
today is useless

without manila you will be locked without any start menu

buttons is back
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Blaze7:
Not sure we are on the same page, but I meant today settings, to change themes, etc.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
from there somebody can deactivate manila and get stuck

is same page

so NO

to enable today in manila settings

just remove

with an regeditor

Got It.

FYI, great rom so far, very fast.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Zeppelin95:
hi! I've just installed this rom. It's running perfectly. Very fast device boot, and htc sense also. A lot of free memory. BUT! The biggest rom bug is that standard windows settings are no more available. And that's too upset. That means I can't customise diamond as I did with the WinMo settings. The other issue is lockscreen. It starts too late (you should wait at least a second before unlock). So I would strongly recommend to give us an opportunity to select between turning on/off the lockscreen tab.

Nevertheless, PURE SPEED is great and smooth. Thanks to the rombuilder for amazing job. Looking forward to your next one ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:

At rom 6.5 and manila 2.5 missed stock tab and twitter tab?

today lock is neccesary two touch to unlock, how dissable?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fr_krg:
For anyone, who misses the classic settings: download xtask, extract it to program files to your phone memory (not Internal Storage) and launch xtask.exe (it will then automatically run after each boot). It is a great task manager and it also offers the ability to access all the winmo settings. Press the icon on homescreen in the top right corner and then press "right" three times. There is a "Control" title and under that there are links to all winmo classic settings.

ROM 3/9/2010 feedback

Superb rom and much respect. I'll do some testing and give some feedback.

Home screen

-Missing three quick links in second home screen.

Music

-Remaining time is negative;

-Fast forward with the styles/finger is indicated in the middle of the picture.

Photos & Videos

-Delete picture after viewing in Photos&videos gives a blurry yes/no popup;

-Play button for movies is not nice.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jarno_jarno:
how are sms organised, if you touch a sms, one from the 25 being displayed in sense, is it like this, sms from people grouped by contact(name/number)?

sort of clean htc message client?

http://img709.imageshack.us/f/msgmod.jpg/

-which keybord is used?

-is appointment editor bugfree from within sense? add, edit items, also repeated appointments like birthday coming next year are being placed in good month and day?

- this will be next rom, within a romupdate or 2, but i think no many bugfixis will be needed when i read here. respect to donsalari with his 6.5 and sense 2.5, back when there was litle ram and speed by most other cookers. but this guy really rules many ways nowadays!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] maiors:
Appreciate the huge work of the chef and the exceptional results in terms of speed and memory, this is the way for the diamond.....

I experienced several bugs, not only the graphics but the core functions i.e. the phone not ringing during incall or hanging on lock screen, taskmanager not closing the applications

I'll be on this thread to see improvements.

Keep on the very good work
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] tendzin:
3g to 2g:

In network settings(ie click on phone in Comm Manager, then 2 tab I think): Band / Get settings.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My feedback on this ROM, build 089:

Some things work extremely fast and design is interesting.

I agree with some of the testers here:

-Lock screen is nice but can be boring

-We do not have access to all the settings

We see anyway that there have been a lot of work behind this ROM. In my case, I would prefer a 28xxx build. It would be great to see how you can manage it. I am sure results would be fantastic for everybody.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Tiago_10:
wonderful ROM!!

for those (everybody) who are missing the last 3 shortcuts..just install cookie's home tab..it works like a charm and still leaves tons of free RAM

I have one issue with this ROM which is the lack of a phone keypad..

is there any way to switch from the qwerty keyboard to the phone keypad? It takes me ages to write an sms with or without the stylus..

help please!:P

other than that amazing ROM..the fastest and with the more free RAM I have ever tried (and I have tried a lot xD)

Settings

currently I'm running v72... I don't know the progress in the new version.

If you need to access to the old settings for some reason download the attached zip.

Unzip it in your favorite location (should be win\starmenu) and you will able to edit the old tabs like regiona settings, screen, screen alignement, owner information....

I'll provide a cab if I will found the time...

task manager is inside rom but drop down menu is hidden

you have 50mb of ram is useless for multitasking so it loses any app on exit
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] bociusz:
i tried out a few other ROMs in the past months, and i always had the problem that my diamond doesn't vibrated when a new sms arrived (it's a common problem, check out "htc diamond sms vibrate" in Google). i found your ROM yesterday, flashed it up, and the vibrating magically started to work. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] viperthevenom:
VEry nice ROM and extremely fast with a lot of RAM, keeping in mind that it is 6.5 with sense. I'm running 0.89and when I scroll in Sense I don't see the large Icons in the middle of the screen, only when I get to calendar it shows the digit 5. I like the new settings TAB but it sure would be nice to have the possibility to access the old WM6.5 settings if we needed to.

Besides this I don't know what more can I ask for, maybe the HTC task manager.

THanks for the ROM and I'm waiting for further versions:D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jerpelea:
1.big preview icons are removed and will never be added

2.wm settings is disabled to free 8 mb of ram and will never be added (you can ask for an needed setting and i will add it to sense settings)

3.htc task manager menu is disabled and task manager is set to close app diamond does not have enough mamory for multitasking
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fr_krg:
I have to disagree with you on that. Personally, I use the home button a lot to get to the home screen (so the program doesn't close) and switch to it back via htc taskmanager. Of course that multitasking is unusable when using opera mobile, but I think that this is the only case and the phone has enough memory to run for example gps navigation software and notes or album. Without multitasking it takes a lot of time to locate your position in navigation software. Also, it is useful to know how much ram in percentage is used.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] etoy:
what kitchen do you use? is it safe to convert the OEM packages to classic EXT from ervius visual kitchen?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] sheennick123456:
it shouldn't create any problem

OEM and EXT packages differ only in the way files are placed in them
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] viperthevenom:
I agree, also it happens some times that i press the home button and the app is still running and I'm not able to close it only by reopening it. My question is how much RAM dows the HTC task mgr use?
