So it seems that so many people are enjoying there GPS enabled HTC trinity, there are so many people however (including me) are still afraid to do the move... still waiting for the official HTC ROM (who knows when is it gonna come, if it will come at all)....
My question is for those braves who upgraded already, would you guys please tell us about any problems you have with your devices since you upgraded ? speed, freezing, memory, odd behaviors, just any thing worth mentioning

Couple of minor things really..

Once in a while the start menu pops up without me pressing the corresponding buttons.
Once in a while after soft resetting, it does not start up the phone part. It keeps saying no service, but after a couple of flight mode on/off's it asks for my pin number and it starts up again.
For some reason, if I get a text message, and want to read it, the device shows the bottom part of the message first, most of the time being white and I have to scroll up to read the text.

But again, just minor things, apart from the last one, it might happen once a week or so...

Only small problems I have discovered:
Timezone bug, the timezone switch back to -8 (in stead of +1).
I correct this by putting localtime and visitingtime on +1.

Alarm bug, the alarm only vibrate and rings ones.
It does not wake me up :)

Camera bug, the camera driver does not close the Ati driver for some reasons.
After I used the Camera I could not use CorePlayer with Ati playback until a softreset.

But I am very happy with the new rom.
It feels more stable to me then ROM 1.15 NLD.

Hi, I've updated my Trinity with this ROM.

All works fine, except that it doesn't work with my SIM card.

When I insert the SIM card, I got a message and the Network Wizard:"Your current operator (23433) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor.
Would you like to select another network provider?

Basically I can't connect to the network and the network wizard gave me only asian and australian operator I can choose from, but I'm on Orange and in UK!!

Please let me know what's wrong!

Cheers

Got this one too, I've read it had something to do with actice sync, but I did the same thing as you and it solved it for me too...

Alarm bug, the alarm only vibrate and rings ones.
It does not wake me up :)

Never noticed, I'm pretty sure it does ring more than once...

Camera bug, the camera driver does not close the Ati driver for some reasons.
After I used the Camera I could not use CorePlayer with Ati playback until a softreset.No problem on my side (and since you never mailed the ATI driver to me because it might shut the camera off, i've got no problems whatsoever with coreplayer of the camera :) )

But I am very happy with the new rom.

Agree...

Uhmm... first thing that is wrong is that you posted this in three threads! :mad:
From what others have said the network wizard can be removed.
If the phone works with an italian SIM (as you said somewhere else) but not with the Orange SIM then maybe the Orange SIM is very old and doesn't work in a 3G phone? Or was it working before the upgrade?

ok, you're right...sorry about that..

Anyway, my sim card works, I found out that my phone, accept all the cards but Orange!!

Is possible that a device can reject one operator SIM? do you know if exist a SIM lock only for one operator?

So far I have not noticed any negative effect which is said on the above (timezone, start button poping out, etc) thread. However, I found the improvements as per below:

1) Camera Zoom Function now works (was not working before)
2) Better battery life (finish charging in the morning, made one call & by evening still shows 100%)
3) More responsive (AKU3.3)
4) Of course the internal GPS works ;-)

CheersYou can possibly solve this by following the next steps.

Do a hard reset.
Follow the first usage screens (Time, alignment etc).

After you click Finish do a softreset.

Normally the device install some Dopod software after you click finish. By doing a softreset the dopod software is not installed. You warning/error is possible caused by Dopod software. It installes some extra not usefull (for European people) network software.

No problem on my side (and since you never mailed the ATI driver to me because it might shut the camera off, i've got no problems whatsoever with coreplayer of the camera :) )
I use the normal Ati drivers at the moment.
With the older Ati drivers the camera did not work anymore.

Try the next steps:

Do a softreset.
-Open CorePlayer or BetaPlayer and play a video (using the Ati video playback)
-Close CorePlayer or BetaPlayer
-Start the camera
-Close the camera
-Open CorePlayer or BetaPlayer again.
-Now I got a green screen and doesn't see any video playback with the Ati drivers.
-Do a softreset
-Open CorePlayer or BetaPlayer and the video is working fine again (using Ati driver)

I am not the only one with this problem.

My problems with that rom:

1.
Your current operator (23433) is not supported. You should obtain an update from your device vendor.

Seems to be a "fake error msg".

2.
Tomtom 5.1 is starting very slowly and Gps signal isn't found immediately. Takes up to 5 minutes!!!

3.
Sometimes Active Sync starts invisible without plugging my trinity onto my pc.

4.
sometimes my contact list is invisible, pressing on start solves that problem.

5.
my clock does the +1 to -8 switch....

6. my transcend 4gb mini-sdhc card is sometimes there, sometimes not.... holy shit!



---------------------
good things:
no camera bug
gps working


i hope that a original htc update is being released very soon....

I think this message is occuring because the ROM is expecting a set of suppliers from the original region for the ROM. When you use it in other regions, it's not finding these providers, but it sucessfully connects to your local provider instead. I've had this error message, and when it appears, there's an option to say "don't display this again". Once I did this, I've never seen it appears again, and my phone is working well with no problems.

my problem with the gps rom is these

1) voice calls go to voicemail automatically, seems to happen after a sequence of programs that i use, cannot identify at the moment possibility, gps or wifi program, a soft reset fixs this , but it will come back again


2) gps fix sometimes can take quite some time about 5 minutes b4 getting a fix

Use PIE to go to https://pda.hkjc.com/pda/MainMenu.aspx and click any of the link (e.g. Horse Racing), you'll get "The link is improperly formatted" error. Seems like this is a bug in IE handling Javascript.

I've tried hard-resetting the machine (i.e. no additional application installed) and the same error happens.

I also used another D810 with an old ROM (1.17) and this problem couldn't be reproduced.

This is frustrating ....

Mrjack69,

Do you mean you can click further into one of the links (e.g. Football, HorseRacing) on the page without error?

I swear that my MP3 quality is GREATLY degraded after upgrading to the test rom. Used to be rich with plenty of bass when plugged into my car aux input when I was using HTC rom, now it sounds like I am listening through a tin can!!! Sounds like most of the lower frequencies are not being sent out of the audio output. Could this just be a connection problem in the jack and just coincidence that I had just put on the new rom?

Anyone else with the same experience?

1. No bass
2. Slow screen response when stylus is constantly on it. ie play games like skyforce.
3. When bluetooth is on, unit randomly turns on and stays on.
Eagerly awaiting a rom upgrade.

Occasionally takes long time to find gps.

Once connected works great.

Sometimes have to soft reset after using gps software.

I use my external Bluetooth when I use TOM TOM. Its a hell of a lot quicker and easier.

I think thats the network wizard, for easy setup when you're in asia. I just disabled it or deleted it using file explorer or if I mount it.

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

My problem is the phone itself, I only notice it after I upgraded to the gps rom, so far it has a problem with the dopod as well as the cooked htc+gps.
The problem: even if it says that my signal is full bar it wouldn't dial. I've experience that in some areas notably (Union Station in Toronto, Ontario).
