ES1.rc1

Today is a new release day people. I've done a lot of work and updated the first 3 posts with the relevant information.

A special thanks to etoy, when I cracked because I just couldn't get Sense 2.5.2019 to rise I checked his kitchen and it seemed I had missed out the raisins! Plus I took some nice mods from there. Link is in the thank you's on post #1.

I think ES is ready for a release candidate. It's still only in WWE, I'll take a look at the possibility of a DEU (0407) version first then maybe some other languages if you like it.

Anyway, I hope you have as much fun using it as I've had making it! As a side note. I'd probably consider bumping up the Pagepool to 12mb, but I'll leave that up to you. CustomRUU and Pagepool changer are included on front page too :)

Have a nice day flashers!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
wow...sense 2.5.2019 on wm 6.5. i think i like this combo....

downloading right now, gonna flash later tonight.

thanks for all your work to keep us flashaholics busy ;-)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] pathjes:
Like your rom, but is it possible to make this rom without sense, i'm using a rom the moment without sense and with spb mobile shell and it is alot lighter.

If you can make it in DUTCH, you will be my hero thanks in advance.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
Just disable Sense after your first boot-memory usage is around 41%.

There's still 30-40mb of space for you to install stuff on the internal memory, i.e. SPB. It does have titanium still though, but you'll have to install your own CHome Editor.

What would be different if I made one without sense compared to what I've already made if you disable Sense?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] pathjes:
I thought i had more ram space without it , but what doe you mean by "It does have titanium still though, but you'll have to install your own CHome Editor" Do i have to install something else to use titanium?

I will test it without enabeling sense thanks for responding so quickly.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
If it's not running, you're saving the RAM :) There is an issue to do with the way dll's are loaded, when they're modular, but that just reduces the ceiling for any process size-If you run light software, it's usually not an issue I've found (correct me if i'm mistaken here).

You don't need anything else, titanium is there by default but to modify the soft key assignments in each sliding panel (amongst other things) you'll need either a reg editor to do it by hand or CHome Editor

Hope you like it. Let me know if there's any titanium customisations you want and I'll look at inclusion.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] allhill:
i look its will be great ROM :) downloading...

will use this ROM for my weekend!

just wonder for sense 2019, why you don't put rss header on home screen tab? :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
I've added two new languages to keep the ES version company, DEU (0407) and ITA (0410), links posted on the front page for download. They're alpha releases which means some stuff might not even work but tbh the only problems I'm expecting are translation issues.

I did some work on the deutsch version to tidy it up before I put it up for you to try. The italian version should be fairly complete (though this one I haven't tested!) as most EXT packages I've got which are used in the ES release were also in that language.

Testers of course invited and very welcome. Let's get a list of things to fix and I'll take a look at them. A few things I've noticed about the deutsch release are:

Comm Manager has only 3 menu items when there should be 6. Aus/Ein in upper case on the toggle switches too

RSS Widget on front page translation (I fixed this one though ;))

Manila locker beta 2 settings page is not translated

Call history tab is not translated

New power settings not translated

Anyway those are just a few... Of course any fixes you may have would be appreciated too! :cool:

Happy flashing everybody!

EDIT: Fixed Facebook Tab-missing registry entries, attached cab with reg entries for fix. I've also translated the manila locker and call history tabs, let me know if any are horribly wrong and i'll fix and prepare a new cab, it's the best I could do with 20 mins to spare!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
Been using the WWE ESFodd for a few days, and it's realy good considering the combo WM6.5/Sense 2.5!

RAM is acceptable (never went past 83%!) and therefore it can run smooth.

The look is great and i had no trouble at all during normal day to day use.

Unfortunately it has to little program storage for me so i switched, but am gonna keep a serious eye on this one!

Thanks @ arealityfarbetween!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
How much do you need? The build I'm testing atm has 60mb free, that's immediately after flashing.

I hate to say it but even though I optimised most of the png's, I neglected to remove the original copies from the build! Oops! I'm not sure how much was freed up when I removed them but looks like around about 6mb in finished ruu_signed.nbh format-which itself is compressed. Do you remember how much was free when you tested?

Anyhoo, shall update the builds this evening because I've fully translated the german call history page. Only got the Manila locker to translate and then it's a hunt for EXT packages! ;)

Thanks for testing!

EDIT: Translations for call history and manila locker produced, cab on first page updated. Just install over the top if you've already installed it.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lwojtysiak:
Hi. I've just installed this ROM and it's very interesting for me :)

It's really light and smooth. Did you think about WM 23569 + Sense 2.5.2019 ?

I have also question about Home Tab... is it possible to disable (remove) weather and RSS or at least only RSS?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
Thanks, glad you like it. It's easy to build a 23569 version (I just need to switch the SYS, disable volume control because it doesn't work right and notification enhancement, because it's not in the Sx build ;)) but I want to get the other two localisations up to scratch before I give it a go. There might be a WWE version available tomorrow if I have the space...

Weather can't be as far as I know. It's something I've looked into a bit for when I lose my data plan :( cos out of date weather on the home screen would suck, royally!

As for RSS, if you're comfy modifying manila files, the necessary entries are in 51e2eb77_manila, 2c89bd29_manila or 6bd45c47_manila depending on whether you're using DEU, WWE or ITA respectively. Just remove any RSS related items with a text editor that can open UTF-16 files.

If that didn't make sense, tell me which whether you're using DEU, WWE or ITA and i'll whip up a cab, taking another look at whether weather can be removed too ;)

Cheers!

To everyone and his dog; I've done a bit more work on the ES builds, and removed some unneeded stuff-along with all those pesky unneeded original *.png files. Full info will be in the changelog, either tonight or tomorrow evening. Translating the MUI files will be v.hard if anyone wants to pick up the baton there or point me at some new EXT packages that'd be great otherwise I might have to revert some packages back :( Builds are on their way up now, give it a few hours though.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ejnreon:
I have romoved all rss entries from 2c89bd29_manila and the rss tab is still visible on home tab :/ Now inside the rss is IDS_RSSREADER_INIT_TITLE IDS_RSSREADER_INIT_DESCRIPTION ? This is really nice rom it's quick but this rss is enoing can You help ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] primus33:
Hi all :)

First thanks for this nice Rom (i use your new WWE Fodd ES1.rc2). Can you make an French Rom (FRE (040C)) of your Fodd ES1.rc2 ? And i can help you for translation ?

Many thanks or your answers.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cheesy33:
Great Work!

This is the first rom with WM 6.5 and Sense 2.5 in german (DEU (0407): Fodd ES1.rc2.alpha2) that is usable for me. Thank You. I will test it for a while and wait for your final build. If I find some errors, I will tell you about.

When I changed the Background for homescreen, sense restart after a few seconds until I make a reset of the device.

I don't like the rss-entry to, but I can live with it.

regards

Cheesy
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] allhill:
AWESOME!

i flashing your Fodd ES1.rc2 WEE and change the pagepool to 12mb

work great!! i love it, sense 25.2019+WM6.5 :D

i know the reason, why u not put in any dialer and htc messaging, its eat RAM so much...

waiting your next update!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] cool122:
Great a German Version of the ES

Hey arealityfarbetween,

i see you have made a german version of your ES Rom.

This is a great news i will test it on the weekend and report. :)

With the last answer you have written to my post you're right!

On my phone the ram is also around 80% full.

The ES ROM looks really good, I think i will like it if its already stable :).

Really looking forward to the test.

Best regards and a big thanks

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] erdincder17@yahoo.com:
Hi everybody,

I have Htc Touch Diamond. 20 minutes ago I try it sense 2.5 rom install.

Install finish than, htc on the screen Question restart, I answers yes.

Diamond to be restart and on the screen, only Touch Diamond and not continue :confused: 5 minutes wait and soft reset and hard reset, but not continue only Touch Diamond on the screen

Please help me.

I'm sorry for the spelling errors.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
Wow that was a silly mistake on my side! Sorry about that. Try setting HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\ProjectCode=LEO instead of OBOE and then do a soft reset. If that doesn't work, try the cab from this post. I use the plain 'S' release cos of the birthdays issue with Sense 2.5 myself so I can't say whether this works...

Aha, someone to take up the challenge! Can you translate MUI files? I'm not too worried about the manila stuff-google translate was my buddy when I did the german translations!

I'm not on windows atm but for the Sense stuff, I'll update here with WWE versions of the manila xml files you need to update, and the names of their localised counterparts-or if you get/got the Manila Kitchen (credit to 12aon) you can get started if you also grab etoy's kitchen (credit to him for this!) for the manila locker, facebook tab and call history packages...

Welcome cheesy33! Glad you like the new version, see above for removal of the RSS widget from the home screen :) Will keep an eye out for other testers who report sense restarting when choosing wallpaper. Cheers!

Although, I admit to jumping on the band wagon on the HTC messaging standpoint, the dialler definitely had to go ;)

I thought you meant program storage space? RAM usage of 'ES' is definitely going to sit over 80% during normal usage-sadly, I don't think I can do anything about that :(

I tried to get both ROM's down to the amount of free RAM you'd have if the base was 6.1. Although, I admit I'd like to try 6.1 but with all my optimisations included to see what that would come out with...

I would hesitate slightly but still say that yeah, it is stable. But there are missing things in the DEU version, e.g. title doesn't show in USB to PC popup when plugging in, comm manager only has 3 options when pressing menu (the new version has 6) which is where translating the MUIs comes in.

@erdincder17@yahoo.com: Did you MTTY before flash? Can you get into the bootloader screen? If yes to both, try flashing a stock ROM and see if that resolves. If no to mtty, then try that and re-flash. If no to getting into the bootloader screen, i've no idea!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
Did you use MTTY before flashing? If not, perform that and reflash.

Fodd Sense WWE Extras - ActiveSync connection is not working, the device will not connect, does anyone know how to fix it ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lwojtysiak:
Really - it's not working. But I can tell you that I just changed my ROM to yours from Energy ROM, and over there birthdays was working (on home tab)... So I believe you can repair it :)

PS: Could you please insert this cab in this post? I don't want to register to another forum :P

I really don't know which application I can use to edit registry :/
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] for3v3r:
nice job!!!

using the WWE ESFodd for a few days, and it's realy good, and it is stable in free memory!

by the way, this rom has included rilphone.dll 1.15.. ? or does not need this .dll

Thanks @ arealityfarbetween!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
@lwojtysiak: Attached Cloudy's cab for removing the RSS widget from the home screen. Let us know if it works and I'll link to it from the front page-which is where you'll find a registry editor ;) BTW, energy rom was 6.5.x, yes?

@Dajek: Activesync how? I sync with google over the internet and that's worked fine on all of them. Sync with PC I haven't tested and I v.rarely use shared internet connection. Can anybody confirm, or otherwise? (I'll put it on my list of things to test next time I flash)

@for3v3r: Glad you've had a nice experience, for the moment, if your radio's working ok I wouldn't worry. But I have no idea what rilphone.dll is in there, I'll be putting 1.13.25.24 in the next build (was meant to do so on this one but I forgot...) just because that's the radio I use.

To anyone brave enough. If you're using the ES release could you test this please? Doesn't matter which language you're using, just make sure you backup the original file before you go ahead!

1) If you're using WWE or ITA, then rename the powerexe.exe.0407.mui to either powerexe.exe.0409.mui or powerexe.exe.0410.mui respectivelly

2) Disable Sense

3) Soft-reset

4) Copy the power.exe.04**.mui to \Windows (with total commander for example)

5) Run power settings, if what I've done has worked then the button labelled "Done" should be replaced with "Fertig"

6) If it doesn't work, then replace your backup ;)

If it does work, I'll look at translating the other strings...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fabius88:
congratulation for the rom man!!! I've tried Fodd ES for Extra Sense (ita) and I love it :)

bye

peace
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] lwojtysiak:
I installed this cab and RSS dissapeared, so I can say - it's working :)

And yes - energy ROM was 6.5.x, but very, very heaby. I couldn't use it in normal way.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kirkcmc:
First of all, you did a Great job, Thanks!

I found a problem is that I can't use youtube player on the new release , could you fix it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] RaiderX303:
great rom, using the sense 2.5 rom, only problem is using rss remover it also removed all the quicklinks and menus
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] allhill:
i have the same issue, cannot play youtube from youtube apps :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
hmm, weird but when I took the cab apart it did have a lot of files inside... If the cab is uninstallable, did you try the possible registry fix? I can't remember what the reg value was but it's in HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila (i think ;))

Fixed this-install the attached cab and enjoy. Would have been sooner but I was still working for an hour when it was reported ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] victeck:
backlight manual adjustment seen doesn't work for me:(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Dajek:
I tried to remove and add the center Diamond Windows Mobile devices, install the latest drivers, but unfortunately it does not work. Fodd Sense WWE Extras is an excellent ROM, but notworking ActiveSync makes me sick to use. When can I expect a newer version or a patch? :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jsor:
Good morning

first of all thank you very much for this great work. I have installed the rom Fodde S Esn and works very well.

Extra Sense would be possible Fodde ESN?.

thank you very much
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] gs1960:
Hi Friend!

Thank you for the mention...i'm touched...:o

I would like remove some application that i dont use, to free some ram.

It's possible?

Can i do it with "Erviuskitchen.exe" (xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=595380)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] fabius88:
how to disable data roaming? nodata seems doesn't work :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
Did you run connection set up before running Nodata? I found out that you have to do that to get Nodata working.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
I had hoped we wouldn't see this bug because I like the new power settings, although I had read about it, they fit in nicely with comm manager and all the other stuff. Reverting package for next release :(

Does your PC detect your diamond? e.g. Can you browse files on the phone/install programs from cab? I get detection here, but can't test sync because I don't have outlook and i'm not paying for it! I tried the trial version but my PC doesn't recognise that it's installed, it does however, ask me to setup the sync so that's promising. I'm going to need more information to help out but doesn't sound like a problem with the ROM.

What things would you like to remove?

My kitchen's huge but I've been meaning to scale it down a little so I can put a copy of it up here. If you want to use Ervius's kitchen (it is excellent, it's what I learned on) you can but you'd need to shift all the ext packages, and also the sys would need a new structure because I switched to OSKitchen... Give me the weekend (It's my first week at uni so I figure I'd better be there!) and I'll see what I can do.

NoData works fine for me, on both S and ES releases (didn't think there'd be a difference but I tested both), Sx should be the same. Like Nirak says, try setting up your connections again with connection setup and retry.

@Nirak: How'd you come across that little quirk btw Nirak?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
through my infinite wisdom of course...lol.......no found it on this forum, when struggling to get to know the ins and outs of my beloved htc device and my huge data bill....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] allhill:
i have the audio booster doesn't fit whit the screen :(

any one have bugs like this?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
just flashed WWE ES latest version, it's working well!

- manual backlight settings do work, but changes apply only after soft reset

- Activesync (WMDC) works without problems on Windows7 PC here

@ Dajek: got to settings > system > connections > usb to PC and un check 'enable faster data synchronization' might work for you, i didn't have to do that.

@ arealityfarbetween

Tx for all your efforts to make a really usable rom!

(atm running GTX theme with CHT and CHTE my ram is at 71%, hehe...my cpu finaly getting some time to breathe..)

btw any change on upgrading to Opera 10 in next release?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Dajek:
Diamond to pc does not connect, so I can not in PC browse files and install programs from cabs in Diamond. This is the first ROM, where it does not work. I do not think sync with Outlook, i think the USB to PC connection via ActiveSync.

@Nirak

Thanks, it works.

Just one more little thing, how can I turn off the weather animation on the Home screen HTC Sense 2.5 ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
@Dajek: Glad you got sync working, but I would check your PC setup if you needed to uncheck the "go faster" box, like Nirak said he didn't-I didn't either. To disable weather animation on the home screen, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila\Home.WallpaperMode=2 should do it. Soft reset after of course, regeditor on first post if you missed it ;)

Keep the bug reports coming in. I'm looking at fixes. We might be able to keep the new power settings though, reverting the package didn't fix the problem...

Attached is an older version of AudioBooster, it should fit right.

@Nirak: You rock! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] yngieaxl:
How can I change the Start menu Icon

I search through registry

HKLM>Security>Shell>StartInfo>Start

I add new key and new string for Icon, but the icon can't be changed

Please help me, the minus point for me from this ROM :

- default icon

- no HTC menu enhancement

- Audio booster not fullscreen(can fix by install Audio Booster manually)

maybe you can improve the next release

Thank you,
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] christkw:
impressive~~thanks a lot~~^^
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] jeepfr:
Is it possible this Rom in french language ?

Thansk in advance.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Dajek:
Another little thing that does not work well is facebook tab on the HTC Sense 2.5. Then you set the authorization (settings) in this table, an update does not work. It shows: No updates and events. Can someone describe in detail the setting, it probably will not ROM error.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] kirkcmc:
Select "Use default browser & paste code" n click "Open Browser" to log-in Facebook first to authorize the access, then u have to copy the entire address, close the brower n paste within "Facebook Tab Setting", okay?

If it isn't clear enough for you, search "meltwater" for his full manual on Facebook Tab.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] arealityfarbetween:
@Dajek: Faceook tab seemed to work for me but had trouble with authorisation, had to set to the browser option as already mentioned. But I only briefly tested it.

@jeepfr: Currently doing bug fixing on the release atm, but If I do any more languages I'll have to remove some of the S & Sx builds, if you all comment on which you use (probably all ES I know...) and which you want and I'll look at it. I have thought of taking them down and putting the kitchen + configs up for you, but I need to clean my kitchen first! (This is the same for all language requests atm, sadly I only have 2GB)

@yngieaxl: The Icons are default ;) that's 7mb of RAM we save so they won't be in a default release. Not sure why the icons didn't change when you set the registry keys, but I shall do a cab up for you with all the original start menu keys, or if you want it as a provxml you can modify it if you want and put in your UC? I assume if you're having the audio booster problem then you're using the ES version-this will be fixed in next rc. As for menu enhancement-it's in there but I think only google maps and album 3.2 use it :mad:

To everyone else, I've just nailed down the "backlight not changing when you move the sliders" issue. It shouldn't have taken me so long, especially for something so simple. Switch the magnifier off! (Soft reset after you do it) Should I just remove the magnifier all together? It's not really needed in my opinion.

EDIT: Darn it, it worked in tests :( Atleast I have some clues now...

Opera 10 will be in the next ES, but it doesn't play too nice with S and Sx which will stay with 9.5.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Nirak:
I'm sorry, it's not working for me on WWE ES version, backlight changes to selected manual level only after soft reset; btw i didn't even know there was a magnifier app in this rom :-)

Tx so much, really appreciated!
