Here are some additional pictures of DCD 1.6 Roms:
Also here's a nice new splash screen you can integrate it to the newer roms, it's PoorlyDuck's 96 screens, I think he only wants credit to use in roms.

The images below are taken from his rom, the yellow one is the customized one and an example of how sweet this rom is.

PS, DCD if you want to use the images you can just throw them up on your first post, no problemo.

[dcd1182]

please provide details of how to reproduce shell exception error and it will be acknowledged as known issue.

Waiting for a Cust ROM as well. Thanks for all the hard work DCD.

Is there any way to eliminate what appears to be image bleed on the top of the screen? It’s the red to green color just above the ‘start’ button. It’s also visible in the posted image above.

That is the battery meter he has included in the custom rom.

DCD, why the older version of Arcsoft MMS? Why not the latest?

Keep up the good work, thanks.

P.S. I see you have attempted to keep this thread bug report oriented only. However, I think it will be pretty hard to keep it that way. Nobody seems to follow directions like that. ;) Plus, there is no other thread to discuss your ROM in besides this one started yet. You might as well just allow this to be the one stop shop for dcd rom info/answers/release/questions... I think it will be easier for everyone. You will only have to check 1 thread!

[faxmonkey]

oops... my bad.

Beautiful work. Thank you!

well you can take it off by going into startup and just delete that little function.

DCD, I don't know if someone already pointed out: I cannot seem to do sync via BT. After I connect to my computer through BT, the only service I saw available from my computer is "serial port". When I used 2.16. The only service was "active sync". Thanks

how did you get the mms to work!
i have sprint also but for the life of me it wont work!

[sporklover]

DCD,

I've been using your custom rom 1.5 for about a week now. Great overall, just have been running into a few bugs, not sure if they are rom related, hardware, or just overall WM6.

Periodically after running for a while (typically 2 days) when the phone screen is powered off (with the power button on the side) it will not come back on without a soft reset.

Incoming calls..... sometimes pushing the green talk button will not answer the phone, and neither will the answer button on the touch screen. I have to hit the end call button and then call that person back.

Blue tooth is always randomly turning off

Memory leak is awful. Almost seems like no resources are released even after programs are closed. I assume this one is WM6 related.

confirmed
these both tie back to the same root problem
do you use bt?
this SHOULD be fixed in 1.6.0 but no promises

Blue tooth is always randomly turning off
i cant fix this one until better drivers are released

Memory leak is awful.
its software not the os. i agree (but to a much lesser extent) the custom rom has it, htc home is culprit. no bug confirmed, i think this is common knowledge of htc home, and i cant fix it.

[e3chaos]

thanks for the rom dcd...

side note, where can i find the touch picture viewer?

dcd, please return to PPCGeeks; whatever happened there needs to be water under the bridge so we can have you expertise once again.

Remember, 99% of us have zero problems with you and want you back there as well as over here.

[dcd1182]

dcd, please return to PPCGeeks

i am not putting any more requests into my roms, the design is finalized and the only updates to put out at this point are for driver and os version changes. i put alot of time into these roms in the beginning, but i cannot anymore. what difference does it make what board you find them on?

ppcgeeks was a good place for gathering user input and getting an idea of what kind of rom to make. but that is over with now as the design is final.

'what happenned there' makes no difference, i did not leave over the ehanhan comment, but i thought it would be funny to single him out, and turns out it was.

i am glad you enjoy my roms but i do not have much time to spend on the forums anymore so id like to keep this thread strictly on topic, sorry. the amounts of time that i was putting in previously was always meant to be a temporary thing.

[freeza]

I love you DCD, your roms rock!

DONT STOP PRODUCTION ON THEM.

[no2chem]

Thanks for the ROM DCD!!!!
I notice they are riding No2Chem hard in the forums @ ppcgeeks. They wont let him upload the ROM before posting problems.


I'm glad I found you here....


gee

uh, excuse me?
i upload the rom whenever I want?

[geeserver]

No2Chem, It looks like they just ride you... I have much respect for ya!!!! It looks to me that they put things on the forum in rush mode. I'm talking about the users. I'm patient and mostly a reader. I dont complain much. I just enjoy what you guys do.
I like ppcgeeks but xda is a little laid back.


Keep it up....

gee

[xploit]

Hey guys I just joined this forums I first started a few days ago at ppcgeeks........firts of all I want to say thanks DCD1182 for the time you put in your roms and for sharing it with us..

the second thing I wanted to say is some users dont apreciate the time this people spend in customizing a ROM all they do is complain and bitch about smallest things....can u change this.......can you change that..........WELL why dont they learn how to customize their own roms instead of whining u MORONS!!....

[lugom]

Issue encountered with 1.5.4 clean version. Might be coincidental, but immediately after installing the new rom, during the initial setup where we select the time zone, the device hang, ignoring any input. Following a soft reset, got error about a missing .exe file (sorry, haven't took note of it). Then did an hard reset and all worked ok this time. But, after installing my usual apps lineup (Resco and SPB apps), during a reset, it hang at the Windows Mobile screen. Did a soft reset and all went back ok.

I've been using all past release 1.5.x but it's the first time I encounter those behavior. Running radio 1.40 btw. I don't put any blame on the ROM as I really didn't bother digging further. But as I'm always going through the same ritual after any ROM update, I tought about sharing my experience, just in case.

No biggies btw as all seem to be working ok in the end.

[elgreek84]

Sorry if this is a dumb or annoying question, but is the Internet Sharing included in the 1.5.4 custom rom? I just installed it and can't find it, specifically I like using it every now in then with the WMWifiRouter application.
Thanks.

let me know if you can reproduce this and find what .exe. i have not seen this, but i changed the base OS in 1.5.4, must be a result of that.

[elgreek84]

Hey DCD, you probably are aware of this already, but in case you're not, here's some news from some other worlds:


"UPDATE: I THINK WE DID IT!!!
Ok folks, we've had a great group of guys working on this almost non-stop for the last few days/weeks, testing theories, hacked drivers, and infinite possibilities of ROM blends... and I'm very happy to announce that we have what appears to be a SOLID, STABLE RELEASE!
The result seems to be the best combination possible:
-BT seems stable, stays on
-BT does not freeze device when in standby even when headset disconnects
-D-pad does not get locked up
-Devices wakes up on BT command
-Voice Quality problem appears to be gone"

it seems they are just using the 2.09 driver set. i am using 2.14. i can downgrade to 2.09, lets give it a little bit of time and see what kind of results people see.

edit: on second thought, i have no reason to trust the 2.14 drivers over 2.09. ill throw (most of) them in 1.5.5 and wait for feedback - i dont use bt.

[elgreek84]

I should've added this, actually I like the way yours is right now, I prefer the Alarm over the Bluetooth (as long as A2DP works). I'm sticking with yours anyway. By the way, it seems I've been having more activesync lockup issues than usual, I hope someone else can share there experiences with this, or maybe it is just a psychosomatic thing.
edit: Basically what happens with the activesync is that I do get power from the usb (charges) but it either doesn't connect, or connects as guest. During those occasions that it doesn't sync or logs on as guest, if I remove it, usually my PC hangs for a bit and I can't open any new programs and I end up having to restart. I'm going to reformat this weekend, maybe its something else, I was just wondering if anyone else had this issue, it's likely something is going weird on my PC rather than phone. Thanks.

-elgreek

[dcd1182]

i think the alarm issue still ties back to the kernel. my understanding is that the new bt fix rom uses the 2.16 kernel with the 2.09 drivers. the 2.16 kernel should not have the alarm issue. what i am about to upload is still 2.16 kernel, so keep your fingers crossed that both alarm and bt will work.

can you please give me some more detail about activesync lockups

[freeza]

dcd, your roms have been perfect for me.

there's really no need to go back to the 2.09 bt, :(

i use bluetooth on my phone 24/7 and have had no issues with it at all. everything works as expected.

[Dishe]

Ok, I started a thread about it on this forum already too, but just to clarify:

The combination of 2.09, AKU .7 and some XIP stuff from No2Chem is the ONLY fix for reliable, decent quality BT that we've found.

The 2.16 build would turn BT off at seemingly random times, and sometimes drop calls back to handset without warning. Also, the d-pad would still lock up on occasion, all this even with the new aku/XIP.

The 2.14 had problems in which the phone would get stuck in standby, and not turn back on. Changing the rest of the OS made little difference if any.

2.09 didn't have ANY of those problems! Its only problem was the poor BT voice quality, but the big news here is that 2.09 WITH THE NEW OS ELIMINATES THE QUALITY ISSUE!
So, bluetooth is reliable, and sounds about as good as the later versions!

Why on earth would be opposed to going back to 2.09 if we fixed the issues, when 2.14 and 2.16 HAS known issues??

Once again, if u don't use BT, this is all meaningless (DCD).

thank you for the clarification. i will base my rom accordingly.

for those happy with bt on my previous roms, please let me know that quality has not been reduced at all.

also i apologize for 2 crappy rom releases this afternoon. trying to do too many things at once. i forgot the volume fix in 1.5.5.1. 1.5.6 will be up soon.

[partnerinflight]

DCD, will that be with the BT fixes from Dishe&Co?

i dont use bt. i used their method on my newest rom. someone will have to let me know if its better. but i dont want to make this a bt thread.

[lugom]

I was unable to reproduce the errors, neither the .exe after rom update, nor the freeze at boot time. I haven't tried much to push the envelop though. All worked out well in the end so i'm an happy camper.

Thanks for the excellent work dcd!

On which release did you implemented their recipe? 1.5.6 or will it be a later one?

[dcd1182]

1.5.5. dcd-clean-1.5.6 has it.

[lugom]

Feedback on 1.5.6 release:
- While doing some settings personalisation after the rom install (no 3rd party apps installed), I lost sound. Every time I pressed the tactile screen, a small humm/buzz could be heard coming out of the speaker, as if the audio driver messed up. After a soft reset, sound came back to normal.
- Immediately after the previous soft reset, i'm getting a blank page (no icons) under Settings\Personal. The other two tabs (System & Connections) shows up ok. Doing a soft reset, strangely, didn't make the phone vibrate during reboot but my Settings\Personal icons are back.

Again, this is after a fresh rom install, with an hard reset prior of this rom install (previous rom was 1.5.4). Maybe I should do a 'safety' hard reset before going further. If the behaviors noted above shows up again, I'll let you know.

Edit: One thing that might be worth noting is that I kept the usb cable plugged in during the whole process of tuning the phone and soft resetting. Didn't unplug it after rom install.

Edit 2: Well, i'm starting to have doubt that my phone could be the culprit. At this point, after doing an hard reset on 1.5.6, the phone froze while doing screen alignment.

Edit 3: Few hard reset later, again, while customizing my phone, when clicking on the Explorer icon, I got an " 'fexplore' is not a valid Pocket PC application" error. I got a similar error earlier when selecting an icon under Settings (can't recall exactly which .cpl file it was). Clicking a second time on the icon on both occasion worked ok.

Another thing worth mentionning: i'm still running on 2.16. I don't know if your rom comes with it or not because I was using this version before, so I can't tell. If I have to downgrade to 2.09, please advise.

Sorry if you feel i'm flooding you with comments but I'd personaly like to know those details if I'd be cooking 'public' rom as you do.

i am wondering if you had a bad flash, because ive never seen any of this behavior on any of my roms, ever. also, make sure you do not have radio 1.47. i would recommend radio 1.40.

it shouldnt matter if you left usb plugged in, but you could try to pull it. ive had activesync really slow down the screen refresh in calibration...but never freeze it altogether.

I've always been on 1.40 radio. As for the bad flash, might be a lead worth looking at on my side. Thanks!

Edit: Reflashed and didn't experienced any of the previous hickups so far. Promising.

[lafester]

is it just me or is the screen flicker/color change back with this release?
i went from 1.5.1 to the new 1.09 hybrid to check it out and noticed it. just flashed to 1.5.6 to get rid of it and its still there. wondering if it has to do with the new bt setup you are using.

i have been using your roms for awhile now with minimal issues but i hate the screen flicker.

thanks for all the great roms dcd!

[dcd1182]

?????????? i dont see any screen flicker???? do you have it after a hard reset with no apps installed?

i did change the entire driver set..

[lazee]

?? humnz Can anyone tell me whats wrong with the 1.5.3 rom? lolz is it the BT problem? cux i dun use BT anyways..i think its pretty gay..but don't jump my throat..just my own opinion..i still havn't really find anything wrong with the ROM...well i guess the activesync kinda lock up and disconnect on occasion..but u can always fix that...its ok if no one want to reply this...it might be a dumb question anways....

to jayweezie...the MMS works on mine...i have no idea why it doesnt work on yours lol sorry buddy...i had the same question as u with other users before...thats one of the reason why im afraid to switch to new update rom's lolz...my mms might not work afterward (with sprint data plan, wifi works fine always)

[lafester]

seems as though the flicker has gone away overnight.
will post if i find anything else.

[nerdstrap]

DCD you rock! I have been heavily testing the 1.5.6 release and it is reeeeeeal nice!

I did prefer the 1.5.2 Comm Manager, but it was annoying that it kept popping up. So, I can live with the 9 button.

The calculator now accepts the htc skin! YAY! I think you should include it by default as it matches the dialer and WM skin...

[elgreek84]

Absolutely, I love this rom because it gives me a good start in which I can add my own cabs.
I agree with the Calculator skin --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1619735
I don't think other people would mind it too much, it defintely is better than the windows default. Great job, best rom out there.
Another nice little addon would be the htc keyboard, there's too many versions out there to know which one works well, I have the one I use which works with the mogul, I'll post it here.
I don't think too many apps should be on this rom, like i said, it gets you started and give you the option to customize to what you ned and like

[keeepinitgansta]

Hey DCD, I just wanted to let you know that I am experiencing lock ups with the new 1.5.6 rom. I happens when the battery becomes fully charged and the battery indicator goes from orange to green. At this point, the phone will not respond to any key press nor the power button, I soft reset brings the phone back. Also (as already noted) the phone is not waking up from standby (non bt related). Thanks again for all of your great work and dedication to creating these roms for the public.

[dcd1182]

my primary tester has reported issues with the touch keyboard being integrated to rom. i havent investigated, i just took it out. this would be something i would have included in the custom rom - but the custom rom is about to be replaced with something better :)

i will look into the calculator skin though for the clean rom.

[motrid]

dcd,

Will your custom rom include Office 6.1? I was all set to download the last Custom, but then it went away.

Appreciate your efforts!

jamesus,

I will wait if he has a new version close to publishing, but thank you for the info. I completely missed any reference in the first post.

motrid

[dcd1182]

id suggest installing on top of the clean rom for now. it will be a couple days until i upload an alternative to the previous custom roms

[motrid]

dcd,

Thanks, I will do that!

Haven't tried 1.5.7, still on 1.5.4, mostly because of this:

Sprint and HTC regret any inconvenience customers have recently experienced with the Mogul. HTC is working on a new version of the software ROM for the Mogul which incorporates enhancements for Bluetooth performance and corrects issues that were unintentionally created by ROM version 2.16.651.0 (posted on HTC’s website on October 24). Both Sprint and HTC have begun testing the new software and are targeting to make it available for download by the end of November.
http://www.america.htc.com/support/mogul/software-downloads.html

Looks like we'll be getting an official fix soon, can't wait to have a fully working Titan (alarm+ bt) (at least until GPS andEVDO come in January)

[lugom]

Currently on 1.5.6 and BT still choppy (maybe bit less than before) with my Plantronics Voyager S510.

Gonna give 1.5.7 a shot tonight.

A and GPS capabilities that are already built into the Mogul hardware.", do you guys believe it's a 'true' GPS support or is it A-GPS? As they don't specify but knowing that the MSM7500 do support GPS, do you think it would be a fair assumption?

[dynaxfl]

hi dcd, i installed 1.5.6 yesterday and the BT was not too good... two calls to my friends had very bad BT sound quality... also the AD2P was skipping comparing to 1.5.2. I'll install 1.5.7 right now and let you know about the BT. Thanks again for the hard work...

you think this is a gps conversation?

[dcd1182]

a2dp should be improved in 1.5.7. let me know if bt calls are not as good as dogguy kitchen, i have something else to try.

dcd...wow...A2DP is flawless!!! The registry value for A2DP settings is already set to the optimized, and this is the FIRST time ever i don't have to lower those numbers to avoid the skipping issue. awesome!

Since it's already late I haven't got a chance to make call using BT... i'll reply w/ my report tomorrow.

Request/Question - Is there a way to remove the wifi button from the comm manager seing how it is useless on the mogul?

[Dishe]

Request/Question - Is there a way to remove the wifi button from the comm manager seing how it is useless on the mogul?

That bothers you too, huh? It seems to not bother most people since everyone requests it in their custom ROMs... I personally prefer to use another comm manager.

[lugom]

you think this is a gps conversation?

Nevermind. As for 1.5.7, one observation that struck me today: The volume on the phone's earpiece is freaking loud by default. Modifiable but unpleasant on the first call.

[lugom]

As for memory usage and resource usage, all seems darn good so far. I flashed yesterday evening, installed all my apps, including SPB P+ 4, made calls this morning, etc. and as of now, I still have 24MB free with a very responsive gui! This is very good! I haven't install HTC Home though so it might go downfall from there if I install it.

[lugom]

As for the BT... I started it from the Comm Manager, locked the unit and let it go in standby. Woke it up few minutes later, BT still running and d-pad is working fine without any other side effect noticed so far. Nice work dcd & al. who contributed in the backscene in cooking this rom. Gonna put it underfire later tonight but easily the best so far, AFAIC.

cool thanks for the feedback. the bt fix credit goes to sfaure03, jtrag, dishe, everybody else im forgetting.

the loud earpeice by default is by design :) the mogul is so quiet stock..

[dynaxfl]

Hi dcd, the BT sound quality is very good according to my friends. I made three calls using my Jabra JX10... each call lasted about 20min. All of my friends said the sound was very good and clear.

[elgreek84]

i think theres an issue with the comm manager, when the wifi is turned on the icon doest turn blue. im curious if the 10 button commmgr has same problem.

[projkt4]

I'm having a problem with the flashing where my phone turns off, goes into three color mode and my laptop reports that a usb device is not funcitoning properly. it then get a communication error (262) and am told to recover. Im using rom 2.09 currently and i took my micro sd card out. Does the card need to be in?

EDIT: I'm retarded; i didnt unlock the phone first.

[dcd1182]

im sorry but your problem has nothing to do with my rom, please keep this thread on topic.

[dcd1182]

i think theres an issue with the comm manager, when the wifi is turned on the icon doest turn blue. im curious if the 10 button commmgr has same problem.

thank you for catching that one. the 10button commmanager has the same problem as it comes, but its an easy fix. fixed (and changed to 10button) in 1.5.8

[WisdomWolf]

I just flashed your clean rom yesterday and it is awesome. I have had no problems with bluetooth or lockups at all and the rom runs much snappier and smoother than the no2chem rom I used previously. I am glad that you continue to provide roms and stay up to date with the latest fixes. I think I'll give your custom rom a go when is ready as I am already a believer in your work.

[2kmy477]

I flashed my phone early yesterday morning,BT works like a charm,no disconnects.Great ROM,thanks.

[samdiggy]

Just flashed 1.5.7 yesterday. Great work. Bluetooth is fine, no lock-ups, PIE speeds are blazing over WIFI. I look forward to your next custom ROM

Thanks!

[InsaneJester17]

Interested in trying out 1.5.7, but I'm waiting to see what the new custom rom is. :-D

thanks for the report. but i should note that no2chem's rom probably has every improvement mine has. he runs a 4mb pagepool so that is probably the difference you saw. but i bow to his xip port and like his work. i dont want other people to read your post and get a wrong idea. my rom has a 6mb pagepool so it may feel 'snappier' but it has less free ram available. its a matter of opinion, some things suit some people better. im glad you like my rom but i just wanted to note that no2chems rom has its own advantages and is by no means slow.

[xnickygx]

i dont know if this is a problem with the rom or what, but all of a sudden my picture mail isnt working. it immediately says it cant be sent and when trying to resend it does the same thing. hmmm... so maybe i have a setting wrong? or its a glitch? if anyone knows heeeeeeeeeelp!

:D
thanks!

Thanks for clarifying, it is actually because of what you stated about no2chem's xip work in the thread on ppcgeeks that I even tried no2chem in the first place. no2chem does make a good rom, but imho a smooth user experience is more important than 2MB more free ram. I won't say much more because I know you want to keep this thread on topic. Keep up the good work!

[sonicdivx]

My Mogul has/does suffer from the screen flicker issue. Well your 1.1.r5 Rom it disappeared.

1.5.7 seems to have brought it back, disappears when use DPad. I just reflashed 1.1.r5 and it does not have that flicker problem.

Radio in both instances is 1.4

Thanks

I'll bet that's because of the 2.09 drivers that are being used to fix BT. I've had that happen to my builds as well.

[sonicdivx]

Dishe,

yeah that is a good point. I remember when I got the phone (few weeks ago) had that issue. On a somewhat side note, I clearly have a different model as a coworker has a first issue of the phone. My screen is different.

This may tie to the flicker issue (and in my case a slight color shift to the red)

So guess maybe go back to r5 for the moment.

[dynaxfl]

in my case, it's the slight color shift when you give a pressure to the screen... i think this is the video driver issue... I had this problem since i got the device (Bell) and it was fixed after I flash the Alltell rom... but the build 1.5.7 is not that obvious as the original Bell rom.

The keyboard has some delay. When i reply to a txt message, after slide the keyboard, it will take about 3 - 5 sec to show up those letters i have already typed in.

Above two issues are not that big deal however.

[2kmy477]

dcd,

One quick question for you,did you intergrated the Touch BT driver into this ROM?it's damn good,I flashed your ROM 4 days ago and my BT never disconnected even once,I had tried 6 other custom ROM's for the past month or so,they all had BT disconnect issues on my Mogul.BTW,I use the Jabra BT8010 Stereo headphone/headset,streaming online radio all the time.Thanks a million for a great ROM.

[dcd1182]

So guess maybe go back to r5 for the moment.

id like to fix this but ive still never even noticed it. it is surely due to a 2.09 driver, i am just not sure which one. if its the 2.09 bluetooth drivers then theres nothing i can do about it. 1.5.7 actually uses the 2.14 touchscreen driver.

my screen is different too, ive owned both 'revisions' of the titan. the pocketpc branded, hard screen version, and now i have the non-pocketpc branded, soft screen version. i do see somewhat of a wrinkle effect when the screen is pushed hard, but its a physical thing, it would happen with the phone powered off.

unfortunately, the remaining 2.09 drivers seem to be required for the 2.09 bluetooth drivers to work properly and may not be replacable. i could try and see how much of it i can bring up to 2.14. but again, i do not have a bt headset, so id need someone to test frequently and confirm that bt hasnt been broken by the change.

[dcd1182]

The keyboard has some delay. When i reply to a txt message, after slide the keyboard, it will take about 3 - 5 sec to show up those letters i have already typed in.

i do have the same thing, but i thought it had always been that way for me. were you previously running a different rom that did not have this issue? can you please tell me what rom

[dynaxfl]

Hi dcd, I think the delay in 1.5.7 is a little bit more obvious. Hum.. I started your rom from 1.5.2 and I don't think I had the delay as obvious as 1.5.7. 1.5.2 was a very good and stable rom btw and I used it for about a week before I flashed it to newer version. 1.5.4 and 1.5.6 I only had a day or so, so I didn't have enough time to test i guess.

[dcd1182]

I don't know about anyone else but on my p4000 with 1.57 running the signal meter always show 0% when not in a call. When on a call it shows the actual strength.

Otherwiser, awesome work!

[jjlwork]

I have the P4000 and do not have this issue are you using radio 1.40 or the stock 1.32 that comes with the Telus rom? My meter is working fine and I am using radio version 1.40.

[sonicdivx]

dcd,


Just read your post. Will do. The only bluetooth I use right now is a Sony Ericsson HBH-DS200 (adapter for real headphones : ) )

I'll know immediately on the screen stuff.

report back in a few.

Kevin

[sonicdivx]

dcd,

Ok just tried no dice. The screen flicker/color shift still occurs. Also to add, if I manipulate the D-pad it goes away, but if I press the power button to turn off then press again the issue comes back.

Hope that helps. By the way 1.1.r5 has worked well for me. Bluetooth occasionally turns off but never happened when listening to music.

Nice work.

well that sucks. i am back to square one then. starting to think that whatever from the 2.09 drivers is causing it is not replacable without losing the bt fix.

i will keep messing with it some. fighting other issues now with driver mixing. hopefully we get a new sprint rom soon and i can stop.

[sonicdivx]

LOL,

yeah new Sprint Rom will come out, you'll still tinker.

For me personally, 1.1.r5 is fine for now anyways, I can live with the minor BT issues for the moment since it gets used mostly for music.

Though I do like your new builds very nice. For me personally the lack of memory is more of a bummer. Run a few apps and a music player and apps start wanting to close, hehe.

[nunyabiziz]

dcd1182, If you release another custom, can you please include Voice Command with it. I for some odd reason can not get VC to work correctly by installing it.

[SyXbiT]

dcd. great rom.
could you tell us what the hold up for the custom rom is, what features are planned (you mentioned that it'd be getting something special) and an approx release date

thanks again

[elgreek84]

Sweet, new release, upgrading today. I wanted to ask you DCD, I noticed that when applying a skin from this thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345090&page=7 ) the dialer shows up with no numbers. I found the thread in the PPCGeeks Touch forum about the vogue (real CDMA but not really) dialer ( http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=10823&highlight=dialer ) that you posted a while back and this dialer seems to work. It turns out the dialer you use has the numbers included in the "background" file where as the PPCgeeks Vogue one has the digits separate from the background.
So my question: is there a reason why you don't use that dialer? is there a reason I shouldn't (hanging issues? lock ups? 911?) Thanks.

[boojew]

I switched to the new radio before the flash, but I seem to have this problem anyways. Oh well. Not the end of the world, but it is annoying

[sporklover]

DCD.... just loaded the 1.58B. All seems to work well.

Just two things. I use VIP Ringtones, and Shapps Advanced Config. Neither of these programs work under the new rom. I get an error for both that states a critical component is missing.

the only issue with that particular dialer is the fact that it remains open all the time and appears behind other applications when you close them.

the dialer buttons on the background was done intentionally by eb3604 at ppcgeeks, as a skin for paul_hammons dialer. paul_hammons dialer had text generated on each button instead of the images. the background was sort of a workaround. i guess its not really meant to be skinned in my rom, but i would imagine that you could install paul_hammons' dialer cab over the top, then skin that as usual.

hey dcd i'm getting really bad memory usage with 1.5.8. is it still on 6mb pagepool? anyone else? booting up (after customizing with several apps) at aroound 19 and end up with 13 to 14 or so. thanks

it was 7mb pagepool and has the 4mb fatfs cache applied, but i took 1.5.8 down due to other problems. if one of your apps is htc home, thats the problem

[dcd1182]

dcd. great rom.
could you tell us what the hold up for the custom rom is, what features are planned (you mentioned that it'd be getting something special) and an approx release date

thanks again

building the custom rom is tedious and its easier to give people a choice to customize it to their own liking. the holdup is that work needs to go into that setup and i havent had time. no eta.

[rbadh91]

hey dcd...thanks for the gr8 work

i just tried few diff roms from diff people, and yours is the fastest. Yes other have some programs installed, but boot-up time is fastest on the DCD1.57

no issues so far, as i just installed it, but 36secs boot time is very very impressive.

will report if any other issues come up

i was planning to create a package for each carrier later. if we cant get mms to work on telus, i'll make the telus package remove the mms options.

[rafaelc]

Hello DCD, excelent ROM

I'm using Iusacell in Mexico, I don't want to have the Sprint as a default in Connections and Internet Sharing Connection, is there a way to remove it or are you planning a "generic carrier" ROM?

Thanks! I'll PM you when I have MSN access. Last note, I think your ROM (1..5.7) may break WMV playback. It was working under the stock Telus rom, but since the flash WMP complains a module is missing.


Edit: Alright it was a minor issue. The DLL for WMP10 WMV decoding was missing (but it now available here http://rs4l3.rapidshare.com/cgi-bin/upload.cgi?rsuploadid=352129854651823516#). Anyone who wants to add it can upload the unrar-ed file to the \windows dir.

yes it does, thanks for catching that. its fixed, but im trying to finish up a bunch of things before uploading again.

[dcd1182]

id like some testers on alltel, qwest to pm me and try a carrier-selectable kitchen. this will replace the custom rom when its ready.

[sporklover]

DCD,

Feedback on the latest beta.

HTC Home Customizer (since you are including the 6 buttom home, might make sense to include a program along these lines in your next version
HTC X Button 1.5
Schapps Adv Cfg
VIP Ringtones
Office 2007 Mobile
Y2Go

Observations:
1. Schapps Advance config & Vipringtones work
2. Free memory is great, overall responds soooooo much better than custom rom 1.5, however seems the last beta was more responsive. Not sure if any changes made might have affected that.
3. No issues so far with making and recieving calls. Bluetooth seems to be fine as well. I had issues with bluetooth under the 1.5 custom rom, no longer.

Last note.... PIM is great. Makes loading new roms way less painful.

[jblen]

DCD, regarding the custom ROM, or lack thereof. I actually hope you backburner this effort so that you can focus on improving the clean ROM. Just my 2 cents...

[dcd1182]

DCD, regarding the customer ROM, or lack thereof. I actually hope you backburner this effort so that you can focus on improving the clean ROM. Just my 2 cents...

its all one and the same. the custom rom is the clean rom, with some other options ticked off in buildos. rather than building customs im going to give out my kitchen, soon. the remaining work is to iron out bugs and perfect carrier packages. this will affect anything built.

i am still hoping to find another stopping point soon...thus the feature freeze until its bug-free.

the other hold up right now is the possibility of a new sprint rom release. need to see what we get for drivers now. any changes will be put into the base used in my kitchen and thus affect anything (clean or custom) built

[dcd1182]

Free memory is great, overall responds soooooo much better than custom rom 1.5, however seems the last beta was more responsive. Not sure if any changes made might have affected that.

if you are comparing 1.5.8 to the pre-1.6.0 i gave you... 1.5.8 was missing a couple necessary components and may have seemed snappier because of that, but it wasnt fully functional.

[dbuttry]

THANK YOU! I Can't wait...there are a lot of us out here that do very much appreciate your work. Too bad HTC/Sprint can't give us updates as good and quick as you do!

[pro_b]

Hey DCD. I've been using your roms since the 1.3 version and I love them. But now I have problem when using the dialer and SPB Phone Suite together. When an incoming call come in, the number will not show on the callerid. If I install an older dcd touch dialer cab file it will work... I'm installing one over the one currently in place. Is there a way to fix this.

[sporklover]

if you are comparing 1.5.8 to the pre-1.6.0 i gave you... 1.5.8 was missing a couple necessary components and may have seemed snappier because of that, but it wasnt fully functional.

Perhaps that is the reason.

Just another piece of feedback from this evening. Still having issues where periodically I cant answer incoming calls. Have to end calls and then return call.

[rafaelc]

please pm me any carrier specific info you have on this carrier and i will create a package. mms servers, connection names, homepage, etc etc

Hello, thanks for your support, and sorry because I don't have all the information, but here is what I know:

Carrier: Iusacell

Homepage: http://portal.iusacell3g.com.mx

Connection name: 3G Evolution
Number: #777
User: telephonenumer@iusamipevdo.com
do you need the password? (is always the same for all the Iusacell customers)

MMS: I don´t know, but doesn´t matter

which other information do you need?


thanks again

theres not by chance an iusacell rom for 6700 or something else out there that i could grab?
otherwise i can make do with that info, thanks
i will include iusacell as a carrier option in the kitchen.

Hello, that's all the info that I have for now, I'm lloking for someone that could have the 6700 ROM from Iusacell.

I think this can be a good start and later enhance the ROM

Thanks a lot

the drivers and radio are working fine for me but im going to wait out everyones bt experience. (edit: before making anything official. ill post a rom to test.)

[dcd1182]

http://rapidshare.com/files/73028176/dcd1.6.1_radio1.47.01.exe.html

all 2.17 drivers, includes 1.47.01 radio
but i need to make some more changes to my stuff before its an official release
still 2.16 xip, will say 2.16 on boot screen

[elgreek84]

oh man awesome, new DCD rom, i hate teh sprint junk, but it's still not ready yet though right?

[dcd1182]

um its ready enough for someone with a bt headset to tell me, better or worse than the last rom

[ji1386]

hey dcd, great work with your clean rom, i've been running your 1.5.7 for about a week and it seems to be running great. I was also running your 1.5.0 custom rom before that until i ran into some sorta of freezing problem at boot...

Anyway, just wondering if you were planning on a telus specific clean rom? I am a telus customer, and from what i gather, your roms seem to be geared towards sprint. The evdo connects fine, but would there be any other carrier specific settings that would make it worth cooking up a telus clean rom?

If you need any info that would help or a guinea pig, i'm willing to put some time and rom flashes to help out.

[sonicdivx]

woohoo ,new roms. I'm downloading both the official and your's DCD going to test with my bluetooth stereo adapter. Also will be checking for the screen flicker issue, which should be gone since 2.14 drivers from your 1.1.r5 eliminated.

yeah the screen flicker is a big one i want to know about

also for the person who was asking...telus will be an option in the kitchen.

[dcd1182]

edit: blah

[sonicdivx]

dcd,

ok screen flicker still gone, good.

haven't yet tried bluetooth but will be soon.

the Registry Security key fixes for seem to be not applied.

what do you mean? its prompting you when you try to install a cab? mine seems fine...

[sonicdivx]

I should clarify.

It wasn't the security prompt, that works. it was the install location.

Typically those two regedits get listed together, so mistakenly assumed that. It was not asking install location that is all.

Other than that working very well.

[Foetus]

I'm getting an error while trying to flash (ERROR [262]). The phone shows a grey screen with a progress bar that shows 0%. I've tried it on two machines (Vista and XP) with no luck. Used the new "official" ROM from HTC's site (2.17), and the phone flashed with no problems, so I would assume it's something with the installer?

[elgreek84]

did you unlock your phone using Olipros unlocker?

[Dishe]

tried out the alpha with 2.17 stuff built in... its funny, since the stock 2.17 has close to 26mb free on soft reset, and this supposed "clean rom" has only 24...

I can't complain too much because things seem to run smoothly, but where did the rest of the memory go? Once I install my favorite apps, I'm down even lower.

[elgreek84]

Hey DCD, just tried 1.61 and I have to say I appreciate the extra memory, I was suffering under 1.5.7-1.5.8 hovering at about 10-14 ram heavily customized. I think, especially given the Titan's low memory, that we're better off with more ram than snapiness, it's a strugle when you can't have more than two programs open and you need to for example when you have JAVA open and switch to IE to MS Word.

i havent run 2.17. i dropped the drivers into the setup i already had. ill get to it this weekend.

[pro_b]

Hey dcd,

Currently using your 1.61 Alpha Rom and I'm loving it to death. I previously reported on a CallerID issue with the old Blue Touch Dialer and using SPB PhoneSuite. That issue is now gone with the new dialer. I know that you'll be cleaning this rom up even more but I have had no issues with it as is. The bluetooth is fine (I use a Plantronics 510 - very loud) on my headset and there are no issues with my BT GPS Receiver. Keep up the great work

P.S. - Do you have a cab file for the new dialer?

[Foetus]

did you unlock your phone using Olipros unlocker?

No... I'm assuming I should? Or is this a common cause of this problem? Link?

[elgreek84]

I was actually just about to say I did it... worked like a charm. Took me forever to find the right unlocker because I was searching for "Mogul" and "6800" instead of Titan. Oops!

[Newbie01]

This morning, flashed 2.17 to the phone....

Downloaded dcd1.6.1_radio1.47.01.exe

opened the phone up with TitanUnlocker.exe

Executed dcd1.6.1_radio1.47.01.exe

Followed directions

And my phone is humming like a hummingbird.

Can't it all be this easy?

Thank you very much dcd!

p.s. some little touches that I have discovered that I didnt see mentioned, or may have missed but I LOVE are:

-Volume is much higer in ear piece on handset and speaker phone.
-No more annoying pop ups for SENT MESSAGE CONFIRMATION in SMS
-No more CONNECTION BUBBLE on Vision dialing.

I'm sure more to come.

Cheers!:)

[WisdomWolf]

This may be a dumb question, but is there a way to undo the volume increase on the speaker for calls? Like a reg setting I can change or something? It is too loud for my tastes and causes distortion. If I can tweak this the ROM is perfect (been running 1.5.7 for over a week now and very pleased with it.

[boojew]

I love the rom, but ever since I upgraded to this ROM and radio 1.40 from the standard Telus rom my battery life has dropped signifigantly (on a full charge I get less than 1 day with no data connections and very moderate phone usage) . I'm assuming this is the fault of the new radio. Has anyone else experienced this?

battery life should actually be better. with no data connections and moderate usage i can get way more than a day. have you installed stuff?

[jjlwork]

I can confirm that the battery life using DCD's rom is at least as good as with Telus ROM, I have used both I think the confusion is the Telus rom seems to have very good battery life as well. Matter of fact the Telus ROM seems to be good enough that the only way you could do a valid comparison to the custom ROMs that have bettery tweaks would be to take a scientific approach and run some standardized testing. I think you'd find that neither is better than the other or that one was only slightly better.

I do agree that the Telus rom was great on battery, but ever since I sent to the new radio and DCD's rom I estimate I'm getting 50% of my previous battery life. All the apps I have installed now, I had installed previously (in fact I have fewer apps...)

Odd. I think i will try a soft-reset of my phone and if I have time I will rtyt the Telus rom again just to compare... if I have time.

Ok so edit #2: It seems that perhaps the problem is originating for SPB Pocket Plus 4. some people are complaining over at the SPB forums of the same problem with Schap's ROM. Could be a coincidence that's its a custom ROM.

boojew, I also have a P4000 (I'm assuming you do since you're comparing with the default TELUS rom) and can confirm that with the 1.4 radio update I get about HALF of the battery life now! I am not even using dcd's rom.... I am using colonel's from ppc... but the radio upgrade to 1.4 definitely took a toll on the battery life for me as well. I am thinking of reverting to 1.32 (where can this be downloaded???) or possibly upgrading to 1.47 to see how that works... I will report back and let you know how it goes in my testing.

[ji1386]

Hey everyone,

To the guys with the battery life issues, I'm running my p4000 on the 1.4 radio and dcd's rom, and have no problems with battery life. It gets moderate talk usage and minimal evdo data usage (due to telus' ridiculous data plans), but quite a bit of wifi usage. Battery dies after about 2 days.

I doubt the radio is your problem. Could be other things like programs you've installed or a bad battery. I'd try cycling the battery, a hard reset, running the phone without anything installed, or re-flashing your roms.

If none of those work, you might require a replacement device, because i'm pretty sure the 1.4 radio couldn't cause this problem since it seems to be working fine (if not better) for me. Just my thoughts...Hope this helps.

ok so I'm torn between it being a problem with an app and the radio. Either way, I need to do some testing. I'll start with testing 1.47.01 since that's available on the main page. Yesteday I tried removing SPB (which is the app I thought was at fault) and my battery died in roughly 18 hours.

Just to add another theory to the fire: Could it be that the phone now thinks that whatever the battery level was when it was flashed is 100%? I was thinking theproblem may not be drain, but that its not charging properly after one of the flashes. Or am I totally off base?

Ok so nix what I was saying. I installed ACBTaskman (great for monitoring power usage) and without any today plugin, ftouchflo and SPB uninstalled my average usage with no PC connection, the phone in flight mode and the screen on one of the lowest backlight settings my average power usage was 200mah. That's huge. So I'm going to do a hard-reset and re-measure to see what happens.


Edit: Ok so I did a hard-reset and I get the same exact results. I'm flashing back to the HTC wm6 Telus ROM to compare results. post em when I have em

[boojew]

ok so now using the stock telus wm6 rom, I get about 150 mah power drain. Better but not by much.

Oh and just as an aside, I wrote before that I had no PC connection. This was a typo. I meant to write I've had a PC connection for all these tests.

Edit: ok last update. I promise. The new ROM with radio 1.47.01 has the lowest battery usage yet at approx 125mA. What do I make of all this? I'm starting to suspect that its not an issue with any ROM but perhaps the battery meter inside the ROMs incorrectly detecting when the battery is full. Maybe I'm totally crackers. What do you guys think?

[brockmo]

Thanks for all of your testing and reports boojew, saves me some work. With 1.40 radio and colonel's custom rom (which is over the top loaded with apps) i was around 150 mah average power drain. Sounds like the new 1.47.01 is the way to go for battery usage.. wonder how it is for everythin else. It was released yesterday so who knows about the other stuff.

As for your question regarding the OS detecting 100% battery usage I am really curious of this myself now as well. You would think this would be noticed before with all the rom flashing that goes on around here and ppc.. but maybe not? btw.. 18 hours of battery use? That is crazy long compared to what I'm getting. Mine seems to not last a full day (10-12 hours)...

[CaGe01]

ok I am a noob but I saw your rom had a volume tweak and was wondering what is it and if it is what I am looking for how do I Install it

[sonicdivx]

ok been testing, overall like very much. I have had some occasional lockups requiring a soft reset.

I've got forumitis so not sure if radio typically causes lockups. So was thinking of going to 1.40 and seeing.

Guess will need to keep eye on Network to see if it happens when it switches between EVDO and 1X

[boojew]

ok so for anyone who cares, ever since switching to radio 1.47.01, I've been a much happier camper. I have only 1 question, does anyone know how to re-enable the pop-ups for when the phone dials a data-connection? Using Telus means that I would like to know when its connecting :D

[threeFiftyLi]

dcd, sorry for the stupid question but should I wait till 2.17xip is used before I decide to reflash. I'm still using your 1.5.0 custom rom and just want to use the most responsive release (I don't use bluetooth or any real advanced functions).

Thanks for all your hardwork!

i have a 2.17 xip completed, but its giving me problems. i think this is because i did not port over as much of msxipkernel as no2chem did. i am going to continue to use his 2.16 xip as it gave me no problems. the xip will really not affect performance.

OK so super-good update, Brockmo! My phone battery 'died' after 12 hours. At this point I was frustrated and convinced there was no way my battery was dead on such light usage. I tried powering my phone back up and it was a no go. I then tried removing the battery for the phone, wating a few seconds and then powering the phone back up. My phone reported that the battery was "extremely low", but its been working for almost 5 hours now. SO it means the OS is reporting the wrong information regarding the battery usage.

Just want to report, no funny issues with the beta rom, haven't used bluetooth so I can't report on that, battery is great, OS runs smooth, ram stays about 13-15 which is fine, painful at times. Looking forward to the GPS/Rev A release in January. I gotta say, this rom is near perfect.

I can report that in several BT calls yesterday with different people that it is still, in fact, choppy.

I am using your 2.17 alpha rom.

I wonder what the new Sprint ROM has that yours doesn't? I really like your rom though, keep up the good work!

[sonicdivx]

dcd,

I have been experiencing occassional lockups and think it may be 1X / EVDO related. I am thinking of trying 1.40 radio.

Would that help or not really. Running 2.17 Alpha , Sprint, DC and Baltimore region

also, for clarification, the headset i use is a motorola H500

one other thing ive noticed on the alpha rom is that the caps or Fn light on the keyboard only lights up when youve got it locked in that mode. not a show-stopper, but just an fyi

i like it so far though, the memory seems to be managed better than the stock 2.09 rom (of course supplemented with oxios)

That's funny, I thought that's how it always worked... I don't recall it ever just turning on when pressed once. As far as I can tell, those lights were there so that you could tell if you accidentally locked fn or caps on.


i like it so far though, the memory seems to be managed better than the stock 2.09 rom (of course supplemented with oxios)

I mentioned in another thread about a new app circulating around called QuickMenu (or Qmenu, or QM), which does the job of HTC X-button in less memory, has a hibernate command (like oxios) built in, and has an "enhanced" optional cascading start menu. It does more than X-button in a fraction of the resource. Solid app, check it out.

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out. I still haven't been able to tear myself away from MagicButton (mbutton.) I like that it shows icons in the taskbar of apps that are running, so I don't have to open a drop down, etc. If there were a version that integrated well with the color schemes (it's a solid color rather than WM6's gradients) then I'd be a happy camper. Hopefully this thing you're talking about might work out. I hate X-Button with a passion.


I was thinking that the Fn and Caps lights would light up for the single key press and then go back out, but now you have me second guessing myself. :)


***EDIT*** I just realized that TranCreative released an updated build of Magic Button that follows the gradient color. Downloading now. Apparently I am going to be a happy camper today.

Hey dcd... there's a nice today plugin that Verizonguy extracted from an i760 that can be found at http://verizonguy.com/oem/

[pro_b]

I figured out how to get the Multistatus plugin implemented. I used dcd's kitchen to use the plugin. It's a today plugin used on the Samsung i760 which show missed calls, messages, etc. It could only be used as an oem because the digital certificate is signed by Samsung.

Some feedback on the 2.17 based ROM-

So far it's been running great for me, aside from one issue.

When I have an incoming call and I press the green phone button it just silences the ring, on the second press of the green phone button it answers the call. The same thing happens when I use the softkey to answer the call. It may have already been discussed in this thread but have you seen or heard of this?

i think it might be 1.47.01 radio causing that, i downgraded to 1.40 over similar issue taking a long time to answer.

[jhendrickson]

I'll downgrade in the next day or two and see if that fixes the issue. Though I've been running the 1.47 radio with your clean ROM for at least a week before I jumped the the new ROM with no issues. Thanks for the suggestion!

[boojew]

I figured out how to get the Multistatus plugin implemented. I used dcd's kitchen to use the plugin. It's a today plugin used on the Samsung i760 which show missed calls, messages, etc. It could only be used as an oem because the digital certificate is signed by Samsung.


I've been looking for a nice and simple app to do the same thing. Could you post or PM me some screens?

[kmartburrito]

Some feedback on the 2.17 based ROM-

So far it's been running great for me, aside from one issue.

I'm not sure that I have seen this...I'll check it real quick to see if I am seeing it as well.

Hey dcd... can you tell me where to find the gray touch dialer that you use in your 1.61 rom. I'm using your kitchen and would like to use it on a rom.

[JDiddyC]

I have unlocked my phone and anxious to put an image on it since it's currently only able to hit the bootloader. :) Is there another location for these ROMs?

[jayweezie21]

new release soon im guessing? keep up the good work!

[JDiddyC]

So I have installed the unlocker for the Titan (VZW xv6800 flavor) and it works great. I've noticed that my Radio version is 1.30 and you recommend the 1.40. Is the Radio ROM specific for SPRINT or will it work on any CDMA based network? (i.e. Verizon)

Great work on the OS based ROM (Clean build) I love it now that I have Internet Connection Sharing!
:p

J

[dcd1182]

radio 1.40 will work for any carrier. would you like to test my kitchen vzw package?

[dcd1182]

new release soon im guessing? keep up the good work!

yes. CE OS 5.2.1620 Build 18125.0.4.2 directly from sprint vogue. Vogue bt drivers, rest 2.17. 27mb free at boot. ( probably :) )

[freeza]

isn't CE OS 5.2.1933 Build 18533.0.7.0 a newer build than CE OS 5.2.1620 Build 18125.0.4.2?

if so why the build drop?

[dcd1182]

isn't CE OS 5.2.1933 Build 18533.0.7.0 a newer build than CE OS 5.2.1620 Build 18125.0.4.2?

if so why the build drop?

yes it is.

i am very happy with the CE OS 5.2.1620 XIP ported from the sprint vogue.
it seems best to use the appropriate SYS files rather than a hybrid build. if anything, its performing better now. the pagefile has gone from 6mb to 5mb, so it might be a tiny bit slower, but its hardly noticable.

[freeza]

oh okay, cool.

looking forward to the new rom

[dcd1182]

will this work on a bell mobility 6800?

[dcd1182]

hattrick. shutout.

yes it will work on bell

upload soon but late

[elgreek84]

looking forward to the new rom
Can anyone else confirm this:
in start-->settings-->connections-->connections--->advanced-->select networks--->
It seems that when modify or create a new connection it ghosts the prevoius and doesn't let you replace it.
For example, I deleted the "Sprint" connectoin and recreated it, however I had to rename it as "Sprint." even though "Sprint" was no longer on the list, when I tried to recreate it, it would say "Sprint" already exists, but I have no way of accessing it.

[xploit]

thnks DCD just in time to test with my new BlueAnt headset:D

[centtavo79]

Great ROM!! my titan is running so much better! did you ever think of adding Efrosts Ftouchflo to your ROMs or Kona's cube?

[rvashi]

Hey guys...where is the new ROM? dcd...did you not upload it yet?? I don't see a link for it on the first page or this last page. Or was that ROM just a alpha,released to only a few people?

[chillaxtodamax]

im a complete noob to how these updates work. Do I install the radio, then the ROM?

[jayweezie21]

anticipating the release....ready to flash asap lol

[dcd1182]

i celebrated too hard and broke my promise. i did finish it last night, and i woke up with 25.5mb free still. uploading now.

its up in post 2 now.

it will change alot more, im just interested in bt feedback right now. the os downgrade is an experiment.

[jayweezie21]

dcd im using your previous rom and its great speed wise...i dont use bt at all so should i just stick with that for now?

[boojew]

dcd's clean rom 1.6.4

KNOWN ISSUES: vogue dialer doesnt close all the way. will change, this is just a bt test.

alpha 1.6.4: 12-08-07 CE OS 5.2.1620 Build 18125.0.4.2 (http://rapidshare.com/files/75218656/dcd-1.6.4.exe.html)

Just before I flash, I just wanted to know what does "vogue dialer doesnt close all the way" mean? Is it just that it stays resident in memory or is there another issue?

thanks

[chillaxtodamax]

I installed it with 1.47.01. What he means by the dialer doesn't close all the way is: When I close the Phone app and go to another app, then I close this other app, the Phone app reappears. I dont think it goes away. Which is kinda good, because it almost defaults to the phone screen.

edit: okay, it's a little bit annoying now. When I'm done installing anything and I close the File Explorer, the phone screen pops up.

[wiinex]

WOW!!! It didn't turn out to be this way with the 1.6.4 but this looks promising. This got me all excited. Good work good work:D

hmmmmmmmmm

[chillaxtodamax]

mine was at 25.5MB free after flashing

[dcd1182]

if you flash and do nothing it should sit at around 26.1mb - for me at least.
memory is not really my priority but i squeezed a little more.

the vogue dialer is a temporary thing, i am playing around with some changes to the dialer i normally use, and i threw the rom togheter using the vogue dialer for now.

That's true I actually got 26.5mb with clean start. But still awesome. :D

[lugom]

Out of curiosity, why using and slightly 'older' OS build for 1.6.4?

[dcd1182]

i ported teh xip from the sprint vogue, wanted to match the SYS, it came with aku 0.4.2

[lugom]

Aah, I see. I've been using 1.6.1 Test 2 kitchen release for couple of days now and find it to be quick and fairly stable with apps I use. Is 1.6.4 worth a shot compared to 1.6.1?

i do not know if the bt is better until i get feedback, again i have no way to test it myself. maybe the kernel will be more stable taken from the vogue. i had no problems with 1933 either. just an experiment...i cant really answer your question.

[lugom]

Good stuff. I never use the BT with the phone as I just can't stand the overall quality. I used to use the Voyager S510 but since I got this phone, I just tossed the headset away. Unfortunate as with my previous phone, the headset was awesome.

Edit: I really wonder if the BT issue isn't due to hardware rather than the stack. The Mogul/Titan uses the MSM7500 whereas all the newest HTC phone (Touch and up) use the 7200 chipset. I've always been bugged by this while parsing specs from HTC's phone portfolios.

[lugom]

I'm pleased to notice that 1.6.4 frees 26.67 MB after flash. Sweet!

[xploit]

wow very fast rom.....Im not able to test the BT since my headset didnt com in today ...is coming monday....:mad:

[kmartburrito]

^^^ I agree

Just got done putting 1.6.4 on and I must say it is definitely faster than the 2.17 alpha rom, and definitely the stock rom. It seems like everything is more responsive, also it seems like programs install faster too. Everything is great so far.

I'll test out BT extensively tomorrow, I know that's what you want to know about the most. ;)

Great work man!

[xploit]

yep im amazed on how everything opens and closes sooo fast.:D thanks DCD!!

[bassett]

I installed alpha 1.6.4: 12-08-07 CE OS 5.2.1620 Build 18125.0.4.2. Only issue so far is keyboard related: only the core WM6 KB is able to be selected. I installed pocketcm KB. I set it as the default with a default SIP program and rebooted. Within Personal Settings==>Input, the standard KB and pocketcm KB appear. However, when I select "options" for pocketcm, an error message says, "The selected input method could not be loaded." When I try to temporarily change the KB to pocketcm (on the bottom menu), it simply does not appear. The screen flashes briefly and resets to the standard KB. This same thing happens with the Touch KB I installed.

[Dishe]

any reports on the BT?

I am going to guess they are failing because NetCF2 is NOT included. NetCF3.5 is but ive had some apps that wont run (advancedconfig). You could install NetCF2 (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9655156b-356b-4a2c-857c-e62f50ae9a55&displaylang=en) and probably fix the problem.

Hey DCD, this screen is missing from your ROMS, i just tried the Sprint Rom 2.17 and it was there, it's in the advanced connections screen when setting up a VPN, yours doesn't include the option for PPTP, any ideas

the "Enterprise" package has been removed, and I believe it includes this functionality. If you need it you are probably among a minority, so I'd suggest kitchen route.

[elgreek84]

gotcha, I really don't needed it under normal circumstances, just a few times, I'll flash back to yours after finals. Thanks for the explanation though.

Thanks for the suggestion [Note: I have had no problems with advancedconfig]. I installed NetCF2.0 but it did not fix the KB problem. I'll keep playing with it!

[nathan7]

hey dcd Thank you for your hard work I have been using your Rom for while I update when you release I always look forward for your update keep up the work.

[threeFiftyLi]

Is anyone that is updating their roms using some kind of backup software to simply restore all the programs without having to manually reinstall?

[NexVision]

I tried the HTC backup with no go it fuxored it up..

What would be really nice would be a rom with ftouchflo/slithers cube and icontacts built in...

[elgreek84]

I don't think so, cube is pretty much useless when you have hte HTC home, I think this rom is perfect, people can add stuff like that through cabs, they dont' need to be in ROM.

Cube I will agree with but touchflo is a really nice addition and so is icontact.

Hey you wouldnt happen to know where I alter the softkey location for the softkeys in the dialer screen?

[elgreek84]

softkey changer - it's somewhere out there on the search
