Well, since MS has not released a COM2 build in a month, and since all the new Sense builds are made for COM3, it seems like I do not really have a choice... :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Chongie:
That is great news..

Miracle do still exists... ;-)...

Will be looking forward for the next Avatar release.

Welcome Back (Both to you as to Aman).

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] darkforum:
I've been trying the BII rom and I found the following bugs:

- Last calls are showed with an offset as pointed out by jono_l

- When trying to associate a bluetooth headset with Sense I got an error and it doesn't work (it does not ask for the passphrase)

- Bluetooth association using windows instead of Sense works fine

- Bluetooth headset works only when making call, when receiving it uses the normal phone speaker and it is unusable

- Tomtom sounds are not through headset too

- Still no games cab :D

- When selecting a different keyboard language my device hangs, now I cannot open the keyboard menu anymore...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Chongie:
Hi There,

When can we expect the next great release?

I am curious to see what the latest build brings..

Thanks.

Chongie
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
I am quite busy at work, and since I now can get my company mail through my Topaz, I am now testing an ultra-stable WM21914 with Sense 2018.

All bugs mentioned on the last few pages are gone... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Chongie:
Sounds good!!!...

Were you able to remove the RSS hub from the home tab?

Will wait when you release it...

Thanks..

Chongie
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Yes, the RSS area is completely gone, so all that's left is the 4 shortcuts and the Call History function!

Its awesome, I tell you, awesome!!!!!!!! :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Chongie:
oohh come on man...

You are killing me with all the expectation....

Will check the thread every hours

1st and 2nd post updated, enjoy! :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Chongie:
That is great..

No super News..

Am downloading and will flash my phone when I get it back.

My girlfriend has it now to navigate to some place.

Will report back ASAP.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] hengmy:
hmm, has flashed the latest B III and love it so much, thank.

i have encounter one problem for this rom, or should i say this problem was on most of the avatar series rom.

when i using USSD such as *100#, this rom will not support this command. it should go into selection menu that enable user to choose some option but it dont and pop out command not supported. if the USSD is not contain any option but just plain information, it work just fine.

for example when i type *100#, it dont go into selection menu like

1. Balance

2. Service

3. Setting

but when i type *101# which dont have any menu, it work fine like

"Credit balance 22.22"

Anyone know how i can i fix this? maybe with some simple registry tweak will fix it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
I did not cook USSD in, but might do so in the next ROM if it is important... :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] fabtiger:
just AMAZING!!!

Thanks for this ROM
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Thanks! :D

And I have to say now that I extensively use my exchange server sync, Sense 2.5 is just awesome! The company directory, the options, everything is there!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] orik13:
just flashed the B-III.

i don't see a "stock" tab there. was it gone in this version. I don;t see it in the change log. or should I reflash it?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] orik13:
another issue.

I have my SP's application on SIM. and this ROM does not install it.

Is there any way to install SIM apps?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
If its the SimToolKit that is needed, then the reason is that it is not cooked in. Of course, I can add it to the next version... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] orik13:
It would be great. thanks! :)

and what about a Stock tab?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Isn't there a better dedicated Stocks application? :D

Well, its doable, but it is a whopping 3 megabytes...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] msc8127:
nice rom. Only thing I see so far is that the send button is in Chinese I believe?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] hengmy:
that's great man, i need it very bad to renew my internet service plan, hope you could cook in for your next release.

thank lots for this great ROM..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nohctis:
i love this rom.. is there any way i can change the dialler with video and conference call without reflashing?

thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
That's already fixed for the next version!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] orik13:
In my opinion, 3 MB is no an issue.

Maybe it can be released as an extra .cab for those who don't need it?

Anyway, my understanding is that you can disable that tab at any time and thus save RAM space, right?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Yes... OK... back in in B-IV... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
I prefer to have the dialer cooked in, for speed and stability reasons. If many people ask me, then I will cook 2 versions: Leo and Rhodium dialer as well... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] nohctis:
thanks.. i'm just wondering if there's any cab or installer that can override the dialer without flashing other rom..:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] razlie:
yes... pls make two version for the dialler

YES!!! using the rhodium dialler most of the time... appreciate if u can cook 2 version...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
OK, in! :D

2nd post updated with the changelog... If you all can find any other bugs, then report so it can be in the next version! :D

Avatar B-II :

I'v found that in Email client the From and To buttons are in Chinesse...

Thnx for the rom, it rocks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
This has been corrected in B-III

Also, Rhodium dialer version of B-IV is up! :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] andrew_171:
Everything great but for me there is some little issues.

Lockscreen. I dont know how long is it, but for now where is no ability to go to messages or to call history directly from locksreen. Some versions ago it was like that: screen was off and then new message came you could press on slider, turn it down and go to messages or if you had missed call you could go to call hostory, but now there is no such ability.

HTC messaging. Is there any correct way to remove HTC messaging, because for me it still laggy? Zenyee Disable HTC Messaging doesn't work correctly, it leaves unread count bubble and led blinking. And also HTC messaging doesn't correctly handle old conversations then i restore it from backup. MS messaging do it just right.

One more question - is there any way or maybe some program to lock screen during calls to avoid undesirable pressing?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] dabezt:
Thnx my friend, I'll wait for the 23*** new one! (i don't like 219**) Thnx!

BTW which reset/softreset cab you'll recommend to use? In order to have a button in te programs folder or a quicklink to it...

thnx!

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ginner:
Flashed B-III last night. Great rom - much faster than the stock 2.53 I was running before.

Noticed a few small bugs/issues:

1. SharePoint Workspace Mobile shortcut is in the Outlook Start Folder but not in the rom

2. No left hand icon in contacts / group contacts

3. Quick links panel on the home tab can be dragged up and down in the remove quick links mode. Is this supposed to happen?

4. Enable my location (from weather tab) is blank screen with one check box

5. Chinese send button in threaded SMS

6. Right hand menu button in Music tab does nothing

Also is it possible to have two Calender items on the home page?

Great work!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] fabtiger:
what is the difference between BIII and BIVR?

edit: sorry I saw post 2 after! ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] fabtiger:

Flashed B IVR yesterday. Running fast and smooth with just a few bugs :

Same for me !

A few square name folders in My Documents and in Windows

Missing Games (is it possible to add them back ?)

I would also love to see next 2 calendar items on home view.

Thank you !
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] fabtiger:
Thanks a lot !
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Zimaia:
Hi kristofpetho,

Thanks for your work, great roms.

Please can you confirm if you missed updating rom name in device???

I have just flashed last rom Avatar B-IVR 21916 but in device it says B-III

Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Yep, sorry, I missed the rename!!! :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] orik13:
Just flashed the latest IVR. Looks ok. Thanks for listening to us.

I'll play with it and let you know how perfect it is.

A lot of thanks for your effort.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] fabtiger:
I think there is bug when I'm writing sms. I use the French keyboard and there is some freezes when 'm typing (with avatar IVR)

I will try with avatar III to check it.

Bug

Hi kristofpetho,

Good to see you back. I'm lagging some versions behind (I'm still on B-II 23133 because I though you were stopped with cooking of you'r delicious ROMs) so the following bug is maybe already fixed.

Bug:

If I have a phone call from a unknown caller the Save (and Save to people) don't work. This very annoying.

And are you planning to cook a another COM3 or 4 ROM because I see now only COM2 ROMs.

Keep up the good work!!!:D and a again good to see you back.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kadesto:
+1

I think it ´s the rhodium dialer. it is impossible to save new number from the dialer.

anybody knows how to solve it?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
Kristof thank you for this ROM. I'm very very satisfied with it

Is there any particular reason why I don't see my gsm network name?

Is there a registry setting to re-enable it? Should I reflash or is it a Manila 2018 issue?

I checked this post

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=529260&page=140

and I have the correct registry entries
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Its a Manila registry setting (if I remember correctly), so I will try to fix it in the next release... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
Thanks Kristof! You are always very prompt to respond to our requests!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
:D

I also fixed the issue in Office 2010, where you cannot enter the options screen... :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] jono_l:
This here fixed it for me:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7904076&postcount=23285
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
You are totally right: this cab fixed the problem (although it seems to me a bit slow).

So we are heading towards a bugfree B-VR :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Thanks for this, I updated to the latest Huashan package, which works flawlessly - in the next release... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Yes, that's what I am aiming for!

What it looks like right now: newer HTC Messaging (faster!), fixed the save to contacts bug with the correct package, Office 2010 options are working. Also, a much nicer lockscreen layout will be included.

What is NOT working is the Carrier info on the home screen - that has to do with the redesigned Home screen, and there is an overlap. Personally, I would much rather NOT have RSS than not have carrier info... :)

ALSO: I reverted back to 2.16 ROM Base for B-V, because it has MUCH better battery usage with the intended, .17 radio version! :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
Personally I like RSS being in the home screen. In addition to this since I travel abroad rather often, I like to see (with just one glance) which network I'm using, instead of going around in the menus.

But then again I really like your ROMs (speedwise and stability-wise) + the fact that you really address fast any issue. So I prefer using Avatar ROMs instead of flashing something else ;);)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Thanks! :)

What I do now, is just bring up the notification enhancement, and there you can see the carrier info!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
To have RSS back

To have RSS and carrier info back, just switch these keys (true to false, 1 to 0 and 0 to 1), and copy the contents of the zip into \Windows, but remember to disable Sense 2.5 first! Then soft reset! :D

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]

"EnableLandscape"="true"

"EnableFullScreen"=dword:00000000

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation]

"LandscapeMode"=dword:00000001
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] cityhunterx:
kristofpetho,

Any timescales of a new release? Com 4 would be good ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
I am working on correcting the current COM2 build... :)

Since I now use my phone for heavy work (exchange mail, contact and time management), I will probably keep focusing on this branch, for stability reasons...

EDIT: I am now testing a 24634 build to see if it is REALLY faster, or its just a mind game... Will report back... (There are a LOT of people stating that COM4 IS the branch for speed... well lets see)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
First of all thanks for your RSS gift!!

I have to report a possible bug(?): Yesterday at 21:00 I received a message from a friend living in another country that has -1 hour from Greece. His SMS was stamped with 20:00 (his country's local time) and not 21:00 (greek local time).

Since between 20:00 and 21:00 greek time I received 8 messages from greek friends, my foreign friend's SMS was ranked as 9th and I although I opened the Messages tab I had to go back 8 SMS to read it. This way of course you have to think: "Have I previously read the 1st message?" , "Have I previously read the 2nd message?" etc until you say "Oh it must be the 9th message that is the new one"

Any thoughts?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
I succeeded in having RSS in my home screen with your registry settings+zipfile, but

1) carrier info is not shown

2) in the home screen rss box news are not scrolling

It seems more tweaking is needed...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Tha's a known Manila bug, as the timestamp is given when a message is sent and not received. There is actually a good program to fix that in my first post's cab repository! :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Carrier info - it seems that its a Manila build bug, then, but I'll check it out...

RSS - yes, you have to turn it on. I'll post the regedit when I find it... :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
New Enterprise series

All, I am ending the Avatar series (more like end of a test phase for me).

The next series will be called Enterprise, to reflect the business functionality of the ROM.

Base will be COM3 (stable HTC branch) with Sense 2016 (faster than 2018 and more stable on single-SIM devices).

Everything else (Lockscreen, Messaging client, etc) will be updated from the latest HTC devices, for better speed!

I am already testing Enterprise I, so beware! :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] steven789:
How about the bug free COM2 build?

Are you still going to post up the corrected, bug free B-V COM2 build?

I'm waiting for it because i prefer COM2.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] andrew_171:
+1 waiting for COM2 too :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
Kristof I vote for an alternative COM2 version too (best with Rhodium dialer)....COM3 have problems with fingerkeyb which is a great keyboard to use.

We had such a discussion some time ago (post 1474 - 1476):

http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7264194#

and also we discussed it through pm.

Again if this against your will I can satisfy myself staying with Avatar B-IV ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Actually, I had a breakdown with COM3 this morning after writing the post... :D

I quickly cooked up a COM2 build with Sense 2.5.2016, and its WAAAY faster than 2.5.2018...

I tried the Rhodium dialer, but its soo slow... Do people REALLY use video calling???
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Chongie:
Damn...

I am gone for a couple of weeks and there a new rom.

Ready to be tested and explored...

Only.. I can not download the file...

it stops almost immediately.

Can't wait to see what this brings..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] neveceral:
I downloaded the Enterprise rom, but it is 23138 build. Is it mistake?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] andrew_171:
Same here. Downloaded, flashed, and yes it's - 23138
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
2018 gives 4 quicklinks that work great (a feature people install CHT to get and then start complaining about the device being slow) + rss feeds (even you like it at first he he admit it :))

video calling lacking from a high-end device that can support it? why? you can choose not to use it :D

Anyway, you know best my friend! ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Darn... I uploaded the wrong one... :D Sorry, will upload the final COM2... The 23138 is not finished yet... :D LOL

Oh, and how is my little COM3 Release Candidate?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
OK... For the uploads, I will cook in the Rhodium dialer. I actually did that in the COM2 build, just uploaded the wrong one... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
OK. The thing is, I like keeping everythng in sync.

2.5.2016 Leo Manila was made for COM2.

2.5.2018 Oboe Manila was made for COM3.

I do not really want to mix things up...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ih4ckback:
when do you think you'll have the COM2 version of Enterprise up?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
~1 hour...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ih4ckback:
fantastic. :) thank you you're the best.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] neveceral:
I downloaded Enterprise I now and it is again 23138, what's wrong?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
I did not update it yet, I am compiling now... :)

I was FINALLY able to fix the Lockscreen not showing missed things... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] neveceral:

No, it's actually my fault, I should have deleted the link as I did justnow... :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mitsi:
Hey Kristofpetho!

I'm looking forward to the COM2 release with 2016 to try. :)

Please, if possible and no-one else minds, can you omit the dialer? I prefer to use Phonex as it is much quicker than the HTC one. Also, again if possible and no-one else minds, can you omit the keyboard? I prefer to use Finger Keyboard.... :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Upload and cooking will take some time, as I have an ad hoc teleconf (a long one...)...

I will try to finish up tomorrow... Sorry people...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Xenomoff:
A idea

That's sound like a good idea. Maybe a test ROM could be cooked to see if PhonEx and Finger Keyboard 2 will improve this ROM.;) (I have my thoughts that it maybe doesn't work right with sense 2.5)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] mitsi:
I don't use the people tab in Sense, so I don't mind there being some issues there....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] ysad:
Great, will try it and give feed back---
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
If you install Phonex and FingerKeyboard, the system will completely bypass those files, thus I will not remove them.

Also, there are other packages that are dependant on the dialer and the keyboard, so there is the compatibility reason as well.

I myself use Resco Keyboard for maximum speed, but the input package is needed for compatibility issues...

@all

I will upload tomorrw the latest. This has been the longest I have ever tested a ROM before release... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Released on 1st post, enjoy!

I just cooked a COM3 build... :( battery consumption is ~30-40% higher... Mainly in the lockscreen...

I will stick with COM2 builds for now for compatibility reasons...

Enterprise II will come later this week with even newer HTC Messaging and a new Manila, which was leaked today! :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
New Manila cooked, I can see no errors until now...

3 things changed since Enterprise I:

1. New 2018 Manila (very fast!) with RSS feed on home page

2. New HTC Messaging from today's new leaked ROM

3. Optimized MANY graphics files (mainly weather animations and home screen). Manila is now VERY responsive.

I'll test for a few hours, but if everything is OK, I will release later today! :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] andrew_171:
Cool. Just wanted to try Enterprise I :) but now will wait for a new release :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Compiling as we speak... :D
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:

COM2 + very fast 2018 (RSS+call history+4 quick links) + very responsive ...sounds like perfect!

I always say that I won't flash for a period of time but your ROMs are getting better and better, so I can't resist

P.S. 1) Is carrier info showing now? :D:D:D 2) does Stock Tab exist?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Thanks!

1. Still no carrier info (i tried the original settings too) :(

2. Stock tab is there, I cooked it in...

ETA 30 minutes :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Kinto:
Opera 10 or Opera 9.7?

I hope Opera 9.7 because the zoombar is VERY usefull surfing the Internet with our Diamond2
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] kristofpetho:
Sorry, Opera 10. :(

It has much faster rendering + Opera 9.7 can not render my company's intranet site which I need to access on my Topaz.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] harisg:
1) So strange... other ROMs do not have this issue (e.g. Dutty's creme de la creme) and others do have it :confused:

2) ho ho ho ... great!

30 minutes?:):)
