You don't need to scroll all the messages, you need to have the opportunity to scroll some more of 25 messages if you just want to... optional not mandatory, like stock rom after all.

The video of front facing camera is rotated 90° clockwise only in videocall, pay attention to content of posts, thx.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] 1krzys:
still think that scrolling more than 25 messages is stiupid ;)

videcall to expensive not usefull :D:P

I read a few pages back that some are having trouble with MMS. Mine is actually working fine on the Photon UX v2.2. No problem sending, receiving, or clicking directly into MMS from message notification button. It is a bit unstable with apps running in the background - some lag after the second MMS sent and I had to restart to retrieve the icons at the bottom of the All Messages screen. Ok so far.

I did have similar MMS problems with v2.1 though, and I think I can trace them back to one failed-to-send MMS. It took days to receive the timeout notification. I noticed the unsent MMS still sitting in my Outbox months later when about to restore from PIM Backup after flashing to v2.2 and removed it. Perhaps this might be causing the MMS problem other posters are having?

BTW, is it possible to make the Outbox folder appear under All Messages>Menu?

Battery drains very fast !!!

Hi,

Just installed this great rom but have a big problem with battery life.

It drains very fast, any solution ?

Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] zooster:
Prabhat, is this a dead project?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] neverland13:
The same problem.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hi,

No it is not dead... Infact I am out of station on my project work and bit busy. Also I do monitor the feedback/comments every day even if I cant reply. I will work on the requests once I am back to my place coming week.

Cheers!!!

Battery life

For everyone with battery life problems:

I use this ROM for a long time and my battery lives 2 days of my normal use. I consider it good.

Few general tips:

1) Always install ROM with battery at 100%.

2) After installing new ROM allow 2 weeks for battery controller to stabilize before posting battery life problems.

3) Battery controller will stabilize faster if you fully charge and fully discharge the battery 2 times. (Fully discharge = phone can't turn on)

4) Recalibrate your battery once a year - Fully charge, fully discharge, fully charge when phone is OFF.

5) Turning 3G off will grant you 10-30% more battery life.

6) Turn on automatic brightness control.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] :
100% agree with ilyadan. For my usage (no 3G though) I get most of my battery with this ROM.

- Daily several calls, few min browsing and updating weather in Edge/GPRS and WiFi in Office for emails.

lockscreen does not work for me, why?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Reply for Many Posts... Sorry for delay...

Hello Friends, Sorry for all delay for the reply and thanks for all your patience. But I was bit stuck with my project work so was not able to do any work on ROM. And today I got some free time and was bale to verify some stuffs... so replying those:

1) Validated this and found latest WinMo builds does have this. So nothing to do from my side to hex modify. I will try to talk to other Chefs to see if that is possible.

2) Same as above.

3) Fixed now, will be release in next Standard ROM Build.

4) As I said earlier to your reply, this was not modified by me and is the stock behavior. I will try to modify this.

5) & 6): I need some help here to modify the DLLs as non of the available 3G canvas is working the way it should work I think. If you know any, do let me know so that I can try that canvas as well :confused:

7) Verified this with Stock ROM from HTC and found same behavior.

I am working on various SIM from different provider here to see if this is working.

Hi,

I have downloaded this ROM and validated and found it is same as all other ROM and NO ALL Day event is shown on Home. See attached. #1 Home screen shows only specific appointment that has time duration, while #2 you can see I have a ALL Day event for the same day bit that does not shows. Same in Lock screen #3 as well.

So my Standard ROM also does the same. You can switch to UX Edition of my ROM to get what you want :). Also the UX edition is built over Standard ROM.

Stock ROM and My Standard ROM also allow scrolling only 25 messages ONLY. We need to goto ALL messages to view all. The HTC Stock or My Standard ROM does not allow scrolling more than 25 messages if we want from Manila UI. Let me know If I miss-understood of your question.

Thanks netrial for you input/feedback. I am not sure if this has helped anyone using UX ROM W/O HTC Messaging + MMS Client.

Reg. Outbox Folder:: By default the threaded view (Conversation Mode) of messages does include ALL messages. That is the reason there is no option to go to other folders, except deleted folder. You can use Traditional Mode (All Messages - Menu - Settings - Traditional Mode) so that you can see all messages within their folder :).

Thanks joe_nove for your feedback. Currently I have no plan to have modify Lock Screen, but will surely love to have this include some time. Thanks again for your feedback.

Hi for me I get the best of the battery life from my regular UX ROM. And as UX is built on Standard so Standard is much better. You may have to follow instructions from ilyadan and check the usage that you dont actually need.

Thanks ilyadan for the great tip. I will add this to FAQ, if I put some time :). Thanks a lot :).

Hi pidrik, Which edition you are using? To my knowledge all edition lock screens are working fine. You may have to check the lock screen after the ROM flash. May be some other application is conflicting :confused:

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] EgorLev:
Is it only me who experiencing memory leakage on UX version? Available memory drops to 10% so even camera does not start.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hi EgorLev, I never had this situation yet :confused:, but can you please check other running app at that moment (may be Dotfred's Task Manager - Processes?).

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] EgorLev:
Actually I have a dozen of "standard apps", which I use on every ROM. And everything was OK so far :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hmm strange :confused: I will see to repro this :confused: Thanks for your feedback EgorLev.

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] EgorLev:
I think it`s "ammar htc action screen" eating memory in this case
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Ohh. I never used that app in my ROMs. Can you please check all your apps running on my ROM before you install that action screen app?

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] EgorLev:
So, I have uninstalled all software running in the background: Call In Touch Screen Tweak and Auto Light. And still, at the end of the day I’m running out of the memory, so my navigation program and camera didn’t start. In the Auto start folder I have HTCStartUp, PKG and poutlook. No other programs running in the background.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] sceep:
hi there :)

i use standard edition but i can't find the marketplace icon...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Strange :confused: I never faced such issue... any how I am also looking at what could be the cause, if any in ROM :confused:

Market Place has been removed from all editions of my ROM sometime ago. Any how it will be also unavailable soon my Microsoft as well starting May 9, 2012.

You can check here.

You can grab that from here if you still like to use that.

You can also check other Tools/Utility/Cabs that you may need from Here.

Notifications issue?

I have the latest rom with android lockscreen. When i have miss call or i have a new email or voicemail i dont have notification on the lock screen. Am i missing something? How can I check for missed call/email/voicemail without unlocking the device?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hi neverland13,

The lock screen on UX will not show that in Main Screen area, instead you can see those (Missed call or SMS alert etc) on top Bar even in Lock Screen.

PS: I have those enabled in Lock screen CPR, so that we can have better view in Main Screen Area, but unfortunately those are not working, not sure why :(.

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] neverland13:
Thank you for the answer

Can you please tell me from where i can enable it on the lock screen CPR? I found in the xda that for some reason all roms cooked from COM3 23153 or 29xxx not showing those notifications.

On the top bar i have a few icons and miss calls/voicemail/sms is not showing :(

The only one way to see it is after unlocking the phone.

If you can suggest me something better i'll appreciate it.

10x in advance
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
All Icons should be displayed on Top Notification bar an I dont see any issue in that.

And YES, you are right abt the Builds... I can see those notifications on Lock Screen working on older builds/Stock builds. May be same events are not triggered on newer builds.

BTW the cpr file is: LS_LockScene_480x800.cpr which you can try to modify if you like :). It is a plain XML style design and easy.

Cheers!!!

I noticed one may be "bug" - when you reboot your device and you do not have any voice mails you have notification New voicemail with count -1. You have to call yourself, leave a voicemail, check it and delete it and then the count is 0. Til next reboot.

Do you have the same?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Never experienced this. May be you can do a "clear storage" and see if all good?

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] neverland13:
I tried this - even i tried with different rom - with both 235xx and 29xxx i have this issue. I'm in usa with t-mobile if this helps.

Its not big deal - its just annoying. I can live with this :)

And something else - i have app AbsoluteCore TimeTools - with all your roms Options not working - New button menu and Options menu shows one and the same. The app is free and it is countdown/timer/etc.

Thank you again for all your work.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Thanks for your input. Will check the if there is any known issue with 235X or 29X builds.

Reg the App. I will check that in my device to see.

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] wakerle:
Thank you! and maybe?

Hi Prabhat. First of all thanks for all your development and your time and energy:)... using your UX edition with satisfaction. Last days i have some free time and tried to use some WP7 (metro) schemes on topaz. Two of them looks nice but laggy. And here is my question. How hard will be to customize today (home) screen to metro look? I tried TodayXlive

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1087494

with no success. Anyway, it was fast as hell and looks nice. I can understand that with sense running the speed will be not same as with no sense.

Once more thank you
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] diego1810:
;) hi Prabhat, thanks for your hard work, could we hope in a multilanguage kitchen?

Thank you.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hi wakerle, Thanks for your feedback. I have not tested that addon... Can you try that theme with the Lite Edition.... I think with Light edition it should work. I will try to give a try if I get some time for sure.

Hi diego1810, You can look here for ready to use kitchen for most of devices and I think the kitchen here is multilingual.

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] commrad:
I have not messed with my Pure in a long time and noticed this ROM. Just installed it a few hours ago and all I can say is WOW!!!

UX is nice, my phone is faster, Facebook and YouTube actually work now. Never worked right with original ROM. I can not believe how much faster my GPS picks up signal indoors and my internet speed seems to be at least double what it was.

So far the only thing I've seen I'd add would be the "classic" telephone ring.

Oh yeah, the auto dim screen actually works now too, never did even when the phone was new.

Can't believe how much smoother the phone runs!

Thank you!!!!!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] wakerle:
With Lite Edition we will be missing all the HTC sense apps :) ... weather, htc messaging, etc. - thats why i give up with original TodayXlive ...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] qwilliam:
hi prabhat. just wanted to know if we'll be seeing another version of your rom sometime or if 2.2 will be the final one. i know you're busy and our td2's/pures are a little long in the tooth, so just curious is all. thanks for all your hard work. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] :
I had a test ROM couple of weeks ago. Not sure if prabhat will release that, as that has very little changes. Also he was telling he was busy. Lets hope to see new :)

Any Update

Hi Prabhat,

Are you going to come up with any update on your ROM in near future. I liked your ROM since the day I installed it and it works very smooth.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Ev0luti0n_:
I am coming from a Touch HD2, and i am now using a Topaz as my daily device. Tried some roms so far, and loved this one. Big up! only thing i did was add data controler, and 4 icon row on the start menu. Perfect! :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] bulat666:
I noticed that camcorder (camera) dont work well with standard edition, in ux ed. manila is little bit slower (mean not so smooth)....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] janissl:
It looks that the Quiet ringtone on phone pickup option does not work as expected in ver.1.2.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Yes true I too found that. Just to make sure you check Manila Settings Tab -> Sound & Display -> Quiet ring on pickup IS ON.

It did worked (complete quite) for me before 1.2 builds... but not sure in which build....

Later after I upgraded the PKGs it is no more complete quite :confused: .

BTW: My next ROM has working one... which will reduce the volume of ring :).

Thanks.

Is this release stable enough to use? I need a fully functional phone.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
I personal use this build and I found no issue of what area I use the most. From all tests I can assume the build is 99% bug free and stable enough to use.

If you or any one found any issue please let me know so that we can have that fixed.

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] loadstone007:
Great, thanks - I'm downloading it as we speak. Hopefully it will work properly after I install Hebrew support.

Thanks for your efforts!

EDIT: Hmmm, Hebrew is for some reason reversed. I'm using this file: http://www.htcaddicts.com/download.php?id=216

It worked on other ROMs. Any idea what's wrong?

I tried other Hebrew packs, nothing works. Can you fix this somehow, Prabhat?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hi,

I am not sure about the Hebrew Enabled package... Sorry I never come across of that :(.

When I tried the link it takes to google search...

Can you let me know more info / URL of the package so that I can read about before I investigate?

Thanks.

Edit: Able to download the CAB now... I will search on the topic and see.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] loadstone007:
Thanks, much appreciated!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
I will PM you a file and see after installing the file if you can install your cab or not?

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] loadstone007:
I can install the Hebrew cab, but it doesn't work properly (letters are reversed).

But if you have a fix you think might work, of course - send it to me.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] porkovich:
Hey mate. The latest rom is great. Keep up the good work.

I wan't to ask a question, something not related to the rom itself.

All the Icons, used in the roms (in general) are placed inside the roms, right? Is there a way to make a cab and change the default icons in windows, or they must be coocked within the rom ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hey,

Yes sure you should able to do that. BTW I never tried such thing, but you can use the app here @ http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=589459

This will allow you to do what you wanted :)

Cheers!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] porkovich:
Hey, thanks alot. The program works :). So there is actually a way to make even a CAB too, i guess, because the replace process is time consuming. I will look into it.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
The build with "29017" SYS is ready in my kitchen to serve :).

I will do some test on that and release the ROM soon.

I am yet to finalize between below SYS:

1) 29017 | OS: 5.2.29017 (29017.5.3.12) | Sys Date: Jan 26 2011

2) 21689 | OS: 5.2.21689 (21689.5.3.12) | Sys Date: Jan 6 2011

As these are builds are release in 2011 Year, so I am looking for the stability and performance and will finalize on one Build.

May be 29017 as this has higher build and AKU also I see this better :).

Lets see...

Thanks all for all your encouragement.

Hey mate, what a pleasant surprise ! new rom ! I will give it a go right away.

I just want to suggest something, based on the last rom ver 1.3. Because you are keeping the rom minimal, no fancy at all and so on, i think it will be great not to include other Themes exept the main one. I think that the people will add more Themes if they need to. This will make the footprint of the rom even ( a little bit ) smaller.

Let's test the latest build than :) Will give feedback in a while.

PS: can i reqest from you to share with me the original HTC Black theme, loaded with the rom. I want to modify it a little bit, but cannot find a good template and yours is perfect.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hello porkovich,

Thanks for all your input...

Actually the ROM does not have any EXTRA theme included.

The Manila theme is the default one and other themes (that are listed inside the Settings - Home are all default Windows theme used for Titanium/CHome. BTW: these all comes with stock ROM :).

If you are suggesting to remove the Default windows theme for CHome (that are listed in the theme page for Titanium style home). I like your idea and will see how can I remove some of those unused stuff :confused:. Thanks again for the suggestion.

Thanks.

Hi prabhat,

thank for new rom is very good, is possible have this rom whitout sense? i use iphone today.

thanks sorry for my english
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] prabhat:
Hi,

As most of the users are using Sense, so it will be good to have Sense inside the ROM.

But if you want to have the classic home (Chrome/Titanium), you can do the below steps to get that and save LOTs of RAM too. And over that you can install other HOME which you like :).

Start -> Settings -> Home -> Select "Items": de-select "Sense".

Note: Any user wanted to use some other custom home should follow the above to disable HTC Sense and install other Home over Titanium, which will should be preferred one.

Thanks.
