Ok, so im not going to host a closed beta this time. Im going to open this up to everyone!

First and formost its impossible to thank everyone involved, so to keep it short and sweet im just going to thank the whole community!

Down to business!
This is based on the latest ATT rom posted by incognitho
19213 build with 1.65.20.29 radio
I also kept the radio with this because this rom is optimised for that particular radio. Other radios will work.

This also has the settings for ATT, so if your an ATT customer then there is no need to add/change internet settings, etc. If you are not with ATT then you will need to change these. Since this is in beta at the moment i have no plan to remove these. In all honesty, i tailored this rom around me, added a few popular apps and decided to share it. If you dont like it then there are tons of other roms floating around for you to flash!

This rom is also UC compliant!

Apps in the rom
-netcfV3.5
-Total Commander *The ftp plug-in has the xda ftp built in.
-Blue Switch *just a simple bluetooth toggle (on/off)
-HushSMS *i just love the MWI feature, its fun to mess with people :D
-SMS Scheduler
-VipPimRingtone
-MS Hearts
-MS Cubicle
-Dopewars
-LocationSMS
-VisualGPSce
-FlashLite
-CorePlayer
-YouTubePLayer
-Clear Temp
-GXmark
-JeyoSMS backup
-PocketRAR
-Power Manager
-VXutil
-WiFiFoFum
-VNC
-WifiProfiles
-Personalizer *this app allows you to put any text for your cell provider name
-AdvancedConfig
-Modaco CamerAware * i mainly use this for navizon
-Modaco Donate
-Modaco AppToDate

-Incax suite that includes IX cam recorder, IX security cam and Livecam
For more info on these apps please visit them at http://www.incax.com/ and also check out the test thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386477
Its basically a neat little app to let you stream video from your phone ;)

And tons of reg changes, to many to list!

So far so good. One very noticeable thing is my videos. On other ROMS even WMV files that I specifically encoded to play on pocket pc did not play well with high loss of frames but I just clicked on one and even with the default media player they play well.

A little bit more exploring and the great thing about this ROM is not what you can see (which is still appealing) but what you cannot see. The rom is smooth and stable not the fatest so far tested but not much of a difference.

Do not know what you did for the video but it works so much better. Only gripe so far is Skype not working and the fact that because this is a 1.65 radio I assume I cannot use the 1.58.16.27 which so far has given me the best GPS experience.

Thanks very much for allowing public testing will anxiously await your future releases.

Does anyone know how to make SKYPE work on this?
I know other roms have a fix for skype in their rom. I am a Dutty fan but Skype is critical since I am on the phone all the time during my travels.

Has anyone tried to use MIOMAP with the Today screen does that work?

Found the new version in \programs\web - odd thing is that adding "internet sharing" in the Comm manager with the Advanced Tools shows the old "wireless modem" app !

i was attracted to the GX mark you had but I do not get better than 1588 (OK la) after 2 Hard and soft resets. This might explain different 7200 chipsets in the full year production me think.

OK :) just found out that we're now connected through a proxy, that's what was causing problems. Automapa works fine now - just had to fully delete all files from SD card before installing it onto your ROM.
as I said - the ROM is great, a few things which concern most people (like Skype) is a little problem, but still as you said - it's still a beta, and we're all here to help :)

Thanks. i disables ATT and medianet, but still needed to use the config cab.
1 thing i can guarantee so far after having tested latest releases from the last 2 days :
Shogun's is DAMN fast despite an "above average" GXmark score

Shogu, tell me how you reached the +1700 mark. Any other tweaks you did before release/ cache to 8Mb instead of 4?

EDIT:
Q1 ; where I normally see my provider, above clock and on left of dat, it says 'Wasted space here" how to remove?
Q2: did something wrong and now i see constantly a Bluetooth micro logo in right down corner flashing. Answer; BT logo flashes if mobile is in discoverable mode.
Q3 ; I swear that I did not see any faster ROM out of the kitchen. You did something amizing here. used the Dutch Diamond as base? (though there seems to be plenty of O2 around, and I never saw a GUI like that )
i am gonn spend a long time here me think

I ran the gxmark right after a flash, nothing installed, radio off, etc...

Q1. "Wasted Space Here" Problem is from running the personalizer. Just go back and re-run and enter in custom text, your provider name. or you can uninstall it from the add remove programs. That app allows you to display custom text there.

Q2. i didnt know that lol

Q3. i used the latest ATT rom as a base, but happen to like alot of the o2 plug-ins... i had made a cab along time ago of all of their plug-ins but never published it. Figured i would include them.

An update on the coreplayer thing. This looks like it's related to the new video drivers? Coreplayer has a special rendering mode that worked around the busted video drivers for the Qualcomm chipset called QTv.

Apparently the new HTC drivers is causing issues with Coreplayer's QTv mode. However, I've switched to DirectDraw and turned off dithering and turned on smooth video to improve quality, and the benchmark dropped from 300% - 90fps (non-HTC driver + QTv) to 240% -73fps (HTC driver + directdraw).

However, if someone can patch the driver or patch coreplayer so they play nice together, QTv + HTC driver benchmarks at 360% - 108fps.

Can't wait. :)

Anybody know what causes this? Otherwise this is still one of my favorite roms i've tested. Skype isn't a big deal to me, and every other program i have works flawlessly. Just wanna figure out the issue with Jive since i think it's hands down the nicest IM app i've used to date.

Has anyone had any issues using this rom with voice speed dial and a Jabra BT500 headset? I can't get it to open speed dial. It just opens the phone. On 6.0 roms when this happened you could change the auido gateway key to OEMAGW.dll and that would fix it. Doesn't work with any of the latest att builds. Any ideas? On my hermes it uses BTAGEXT.dll and has no issues. However in this rom and any ATT rom recently it doesn't work. The headset can activate MS Voice Command.

Very nice anf FAST rom BUT its buggy and drains the battery very fast. Wait till you guys start using it normally you will see the drain (at least for me). When I go landscape and use clear type all the menus dissapear. tcmpc does not work and tomtom slows down at times with weird stuff happening. I noticed that fast roms cause problems for whatever reason. Thanks anyway hope it works for everypne else.

It is confirmed. Happy to say tha after flashing 15 ROMS in the last 5 days, this one steps out above the others. And I am not talking about what is on board or not, but in terms of stability, power consumption and radio.
I though I had something going on with L & D :D but it seems I am fully attracted to Death now. Gonna make a pact with the devil as I wanna polish this ROM to its utmost functionality.

This said, Shogun, the only isues I found untill now are:
Quick GPS malfunctions: no d-load via Net nor 3G.
Connects and says connection failed. Will try with new cab.
Can only find Com 1, 7 and 8 through GPSgate. Where are the other Com ports :confused:
Seems a similar set-up as Samsung old I780 COM setup? (O2 setup maybe?)

Again, I encourage all to give this one a try if you want to see a more than quick response on your device . it IS a keeper
Congrats Shogun, I envy the one whom makes Death alive :cool:

there is no need for a video dialer considering a tilt doesn't have that option. The cook uses a Tilt and as he stated he build the rom around his preferences. However, you can install any dialer you like. There are plenty around the forum.

Great Rom! Really fast, and I like the progs you included.

Here's what I've noticed.

This Rom is as fast or faster than the

[May 19] L26_3.53.502.0_(AT&T_Source)_wm6.1_pro_v1, which was the fastest I'd found.

I finally found a rom (besides L26's "favorit") that runs Opera 9.5 (doesn't freeze).

TCPMP does not work for me. I get "Crash: Unexpected program failure. Please send "crash.txt" to the developers. Program will now exit." I'm using 0.72RC1, which I've used (via UC) in all the previous roms I've loaded.

All my SPB programs work great, mobile shell is FAST.

Biggest bug I've noticed, and I hope its a bug and not the beginnings of a hardware problem, is screen flicker. When the device is in standby (or sleep, whatever its called when the screen is off), the screen flickers on (just a blank white screen) for a 1/2 second up to 5 seconds (it varies). Sometimes it happens many times a minute (4 or 5). Movement of the phone doesnt cause it, i.e. it happens sitting on the table. I have flashed this ROM 2 times, no hard resets (other than initial resets after flash), and I havent tried reflashing just the Radio to see if that fixes it. I've tried most of the dutty, L26, and an Alex ROM's since March (flashed probably 30 times with those ROM's), and I havent seen this before. I'll try to go back to the [May 19] L26_3.53.502.0_(AT&T_Source)_wm6.1_pro_v1 ROM and see if it still does it. First I'll try hard reset, and then Radio flash only to see if it changes. I have no touch issues, or other screen issues, everything else works great.

If anybody knows of something obvious that I've overlooked causing the flicker, by all means let me have it!


I'll hard reset now, but cant flash the radio until i get off work.

Update: after Hard Reset, TCPMP still not working, and screen flicker still there.

I agree this ROM seems very speedy.
Shogun, if you wouldn't mind letting go of some secrets, can you explain how you are able to quicken screen rotation?

I would say that your screen rotation speed it consistently about 1 second (1 mississippi). I have played with some other ROMs that were this fast, but others are less consistent taking between 1.5-2.5 seconds within the same ROM.

Even comparing yours to the build you cooked from the rotation is nice and speedy. While this doesn't make or break a ROM for me, I am very interested in what is influencing this.

thx.

Oh I have another question regarding this ROM and pretty much all the new builds. What have they done to eat up all the extra memory?

Most of the older ROMs had about 101MB Total running with something like a 8-14MB page pool. All of the new builds show only 85MB Total and are running a Dynamic (12MB) page pool. So, I don't think this 15MB discrepancy is due to the Page Pool. This also doesn't seem to be reg entries or any caches, as that wouldn't be reflected in the Total, but the available. Can anyone shed any light on what has changed in these newer roms?

thx

I have the screen flicker as well in standby mode. I did have it with a couple of other ROM all of them being the more recent 6.1 ROMS. I will go back and look and see if I can identify the ROMS I saw it in. I had a few missed calls and wondered if it had anything to do with it not coming out of standby mode.

um no... i used no att settings cab, rather i used the mxip files from the oemoperater folder, i just modified them a bit :D Im not going to use a cab when the settings are already there ;)

@ceevee369
The quick gps problem could be the fact that i think the ATT proxy is on by default, if you run the disable proxy from the tools menu this should solve the problem. For the final release i will disable the proxy by default. This was just a mere oversight on my part. But all the com ports are there.. and the only thing that is O2 about this rom is their plugins.

@shogun,

How to solve the "Can not run Mortscript" error message popping up after your dad's picture ?
As for GPS Att disabled settings helped for Quick GPS, though GPS sync (cold + Warm) are still very slow.
And where Garmin XT Mob normally COM 4 uses , this has now become COM8 as it seems that the device could not find any other ports. No clue what this means as I do see the ports in Bluetooth Com manager screen indeed.

the proxy enable/disable cabs are there, CV not built in.. basically i stripped it, and put in the internet/mms settings and used that for a base. I did leave the ATT dialer intact in case anyone wanted to enable PTT on this rom. However it is by default turned off, but running the PTT cab will enable it.

shogunmark and all,

I had some very odd issues that eventually had me flash a different rom...which is a bummer, as I was very excited to try a little "death" action!

I experience MAJOR screen non-responsiveness, and some amazing slowdowns (possibly related to the screen issues). For the screen taps, I would tap, and tap, and tap, and if i was lucky the tap would finally register (both stylus and finger).

For slowdowns, I would have to wait up to 5 seconds for a program to launch.

I have a Tilt, was using the Radio that came with the ROM. I did do a Hard Reset after flashing. I did try resetting my screen alignment too.

I suppose it could have been a bad flash....I needed a working phone so I could not thoroughly test for the "bad flash" issue. I may retry V3...if and when that bad boy comes out.

Thanks again for your efforts.

yes, i kinda worked backwards :) im a little weird like that... but since i was going to be testing all the time i wanted to ensure it worked for me right after a flash... so i will have to deal with the challenge of stripping out the ATT settings later... but no big deal, that should actually be easy.

these are odd issues... and was something we discussed in the original beta thread. I would get intermittent taps and/or slow downs on my tilt, but not on my tytnII and both have the same chipset. we havent actually narrowed this issue down yet. this is problem i have seen with many different roms and has happened on both of my phones.

I agree, so far the only issue i've had is with JiveTalk, and it is still in alpha testing, so could just be that software....well and of course skype but they just need to update that program anyway. The last build they released was like in November and it doesn't work right on any wm6.1 roms anyway...stupid sound coming out the back speaker all the time, haha.

yes, no video dialer, my test phone is a tilt which has not front cam, and my regular phone is a tytnII which has the front cam, but no need for it in the US since we dont do video calling...

"Scopophobia?" (re: we don't do video calling, am just kidding my rom building buddy)

Anyway.....I sersiouly have to say that I love your Rom. Oh,and I DO video calling and it works a treat once I installed Nadavi_NFDialer.cab. I have spent two days adding and testing various software on this rom...and believe it or not I have had NO problems. This rom of yours is THE BEST rom available on the xda forums.
There was one problem I dont care a toss about and that was having to unistall threaded sms text. Its your cab that you put together which I have used for ages. But if it IS installed on this rom, then the phones MMS will stop working and sometimes freeze so be warned anyone who wants threaded text. Could just be my upgrade but I have installed this rom three times in the past few hours to test it properly as always. Each time the same thing happens when the threaded txt cab is installed. Who needs it anyway.

Anyway. that was just my thanks done and dusted and I look forward very much to V2 of Death.

Am not a wealthy chap at the mo but rest assured I am a generous person in real life and certainly believe in giving to those who go out their way to help others. In particular, in regards to this rom which imho has allowed the lost but so much anticipated multimedia enjoyment and pleasure factor which "should" have been available by default in the first place from the original manufacturers rom.

The quick gps problem could be the fact that i think the ATT proxy is on by default, if you run the disable proxy from the tools menu this should solve the problem. For the final release i will disable the proxy by default. This was just a mere oversight on my part. But all the com ports are there.. and the only thing that is O2 about this rom is their plugins.[/quote]

FYI...just installed and proxy is not checked on media net

Alright, well, I must admit, this is a fantastic ROM thus far.
Very very stable, really quick, responsive, etc.

The ONLY thing i've noticed that bothers me is the Comm Manager problem we've seen before (when closing an application, it pops up in the background).

but honestly, so far everything is excellent and by far the best i've tried.
This seems to be a keeper.

Thank you and good work!

Giving it a whirl now, will edit this post with any problems. Installed ROM and hard reset.

First impressions:
1) Love the Reaper and clean home screen graphics
2) No messaging icon in the start menu for selection (personally preffered location rather than button or scroll)
3) No Comm Manager in Programs folder (does exit in programs>Tools and )
4) Beam is on after install
5) Original radio (1.65.20.29) poor in NE-US
6) It is fast.....
7) Having a heck of a time getting AT&T to connect to internet. Would not connect immediately after installation at all. Settings appear right, but still no connect to internet, even after running "AT&T WAP MEdia Net and MMS Settings.com" and restarting. Re-hard resetting, we'll see how it goes. Connects now, but thoroghly convinced radio 1.65.20.29 blows, switching back to 1.65.14.06.

The radio from the official HTC build that was just released should work on this rom... and so does the radio from hell...


Thanks, I loaded 1.65.14.06 we will see how it goes the radio that came with the ROM had amazing battery life for me equivelant to the niki 1.58.16.27 which to me is the best battery life radio.

Thanks

Thank you for all your efforts - yours is the first ROM I have flashed on my Tilt.

I was getting the White Screen and chickened out each time going further. I finally got HARDSPL installed (really no issue) and wish that I had done it sooner. Your ROM is really fast.

It appears that everything that I use is working EXCEPT I cannot get a GPS lock for all the tea in China.

I did a hard reset after the update.
TomTom is set for an external GPS on COM4 at 4800 baud.
I have soft reset till I am blue ;)

PS - on my system GXMARK is 1588. In case you wondered.
So - my question is - on your ROM I have not seen any issues that anyone ELSE has mentioned with GPS - can you give me any ideas of trouble shooting this?

I lookged to the radio in my signature in this thread:

Thank you for your quick reply -
I had already downloaded quick gps - sorry - I forgot to say that in my message.

BUT - I downloaded the data again just to be sure.

I tried 9600 baud, and loaded visualspacegpsce.
Nothing. No response what so ever.

Since 4800 does seem to recognize that there is at least a GPS device I set it back to 4800 and loaded visualspacegpsce again - and it IMMEDIATELY found satellites.

TomTom however did not.

I waited another 2 minutes and then TomTom found satelittes. This radio seems to be a little less tolerant of poor sky than the prior radio. BUT
IT IS WORKING! Thank you RAC2371. I sure appreciate your thoughts.

to be honest, there will be a final.. but i want to get all the bugs worked out as best as possible. I cant say when the final will be since im actually hoping/waiting on a newer ATT rom without backlight issues, so it could be 2 days, or 2 weeks, etc... But its going to be beta until i feel like its good enough to put my final stamp of approval on it. I had mental issues with releasing this particular rom because of the backlight issues. I hate giving out something that i know has issues. maybe its a perfection complex.. i dont know.. but yes, a final will come, just no eta of when that will happen!

to be quite honest.. if you want a lite version, you can get the os that i stripped from the incognitho thread, i took out the att stuff (except the dialer) and posted it there. it doesnt have any tweaks though... so if you are requesting that i could probably take that and tweak it a little...

Yeah well I like your ROM... I actually stripped both yours and the HTC one by incognito to try and look at the differences. I dumped the whole os.nb and compared files and reg entries to see if I could discover your secrets!

It looked like there was one or two DLLs that might have been changed out, but comparing the registry hives and the XMLs I couldn't really see what you had done to get it so quick :). Unless it is a whole lot of little things that add up (like a bare interface, touch flo disabled, no sliding sounds, etc...), I don't know what is speeding it up.

I'm not a cooking wiz, so if it involves more than just swapping out a file or doing some reg tweaks, I probably can't figure it out at this point.

I would strip down the incognito, but I'm afraid it won't give me the performance that yours does.

So, if you would either
1) Do your tweaks to the incognito in a format that would allow others to strip and rebuild
2) Release a liter verion of yours
or
3) Tell us some of your secrets ;)

This would be much appreciated. I tried to extract and rebuild yours with kaiserkitchen, but got some error during rebuild (I think on a comm manager file).... so I wasn't able to strip out some of the stuff I didn't want.

Anyway, the above would be much appreciated if you were able. I really like having the latest "Official" as my base, even if it means it might be a tad bit slower...so, I just flashed off yours, and for now I am running the new HTC just to see how bad it is ;)

Thanks for your efforts!

p.s. Where can I find a standalone HTC Album that you use?

Thank you for responding - however - I do have it working now. As a matter of fact it seems to be working pretty well at this point - it was almost like there was a dam to be broken and once it broke it works fine.

It simply did not want to get the first connection.
Excellent ROM at this point. It works a treat - the only other thing I can find (very minor) is that my bluetooth headset HT820 does not have the same amount of volume that it used to have with the old ROM. Certainly not a fatal thing.

I agree, so far the only issue i've had is with JiveTalk, and it is still in alpha testing, so could just be that software....well and of course skype but they just need to update that program anyway. The last build they released was like in November and it doesn't work right on any wm6.1 roms anyway...stupid sound coming out the back speaker all the time, haha.


Well I spoke to soon, after installing Jivetalk I get the same crash. But as you said it's still in alpha phase so it's probably not the rom. Still a GREAT rom Shogunmark!

Great ROM shogunmark - thanks.

fyi, very fast ROM however the included radio (1.65.20.29) didn't seem to get GPS locks. Have changed it to 1.65.14.06 and now works very well indeed (Australia, Telstra NextG 3G network). Also loaded the Network Wizard cab to change all network settings (away from AT&T).

Always fascinating the different pros/cons of ROM / radio combos. At the end of the day though, I must say all of the chefs are very talented and its fun to try out different options.

Will stick with DeathV2 / 1.65.14.06 for a while...

What soft does the Youtubeplayer uses anyway?

Audio manager cab installed and is now linked with shortcut through "today-item" set up.

This for me starts to smell as an almost perfect ROM

First off hello there my fellow Death 2 rom user. :D

I too installed various mms software which caused all kinds of screwups. I live in the UK and use the orange network. FIrst off I have installed the rom three times but only to test it.
What I noticed is that on the installed software live "Shogunmark" HAS already placed mms software so I don't think you need to have installed another over the top. I did the same as I couldn't get it to work. Problem is simply to use the Dutty cab "network configuration" which I dont have handy but you can find via search. And it should allow the already in place mms software to allow you to send and recieve no probs. i now have no problems but did at first. I unistalled the mms I put on, used the configuration network cab, told it that Orange UK was my chosen network, reset the device and BINGO.

Hope this has been of some help as it is early and I am struggling to see the display as am writing this on my "tilt!"
Oh, and I found the file for configuration of network settings hope it helps.

It's really a nice, superfast and really really well-equipped ROM...

BUT

After a few hours of using it, I lose all sound. Media Player doesn't work, I can't hear the phone ringing, I can't hear the calling side and noone can hear me. The whole phone is simply mute/deaf.

Reflashing helps, but soon I lose the sound again.

UPDATE: I re-flashed Death V2, sound works again and I see that 1.68.20.29 is the default radio for this ROM. I hope it'll last. Somehow, I feel the problem was caused by installing an application. Not sure which one, though.

I have the same thing - there is a "clicker" graphic on mine (like what they use in the movies to "synchronize" the sounds with the video) on it and it also says "CORE" - but you are right - it does not seems to play anything.

In case anyone wants them, I can recomend the attached files that I CANNOT live without and which DO work on 6.1 perfectly, especially well on DeathV2!!!

:D

1. Nadavi_WM6.1_BLACK_VF_Dialer_for_Kaiser here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365629)
2. HTC_Action_Screen
3. effcomm

I have installed the above as I use them all the time.I use video calling sometimes and it works fine. The action screen I rename "NEW" and put a shortcut on my left side soft key for instant access to a new "whatever" whenever I need it. THe effcom is the best cab I have used. Allows instant on screen access to bluetooth WiFI and Phone on/off without any fuss.

Hope someone finds it useful.

Did you remove the card from the Kaiser/Tilt before you upgraded?
I ask as its a 100% prevequisite when rom upgrading. Although if the card is the source of the rom then its different. I'm sure other users have more info on this as I am not a brainbox on the subject. I just remember reading several times that cards should be removed before rom updating. You may be able to repair or re aquire some of the files via a card reader and your PC and perhaps doing a scandisk etc.

Good luck anyway and sorry I cant help more.

Unfortunately :confused: I did not remove the card. As a matter of fact I have flashed close to a million times (slight exageration) with my card in the tilt but had never faced this problem. Strange thing happened while I was setting up the device using Schaps Advance Config, I usually set all the default folders for pics, music etc to be in Storage card. After setting and soft resetting some of the files came back to life but not all and I still see garbled forlders and files. I have also tried the card on my PC and Laptop but with same results. But anyways thanks guys for your help. I hope someone will figure this out :confused:

I did some further testing on the GPS efficiency.

Remark1:
GPS seems to be slow/ less efficienent for all new HTC Roms and last cooked Roms from other great Chefs.

Remark 2:
We do not talk about a "first fixation" here as this can take for some devices even more than 5 minutes.
TIP; dowload this week SATELITE position data first via Quick GPS and run GPStest cab before running GPS soft.

So, what's the verdict:
Stock Rom on Death 2: best cold start 185 sec. Warm : 45 sec :(
1.65.14.06 : Cold start approx 360 sec, but warm.. 15 sec :)
1.68.20.29 ; Cold start : 120 sec - warm 25
A well perceived Niki I tried (1.58.16.27) gave no juice (might be not compatible)

What else I saw: more scaring than the last 48 hours playing with this ROM; screen freezes... Especially SPB Mob Shell2.1 seems to be the trouble maker.

I ask as its a 100% prevequisite when rom upgrading. Although if the card is the source of the rom then its different. I'm sure other users have more info on this as I am not a brainbox on the subject. I just remember reading several times that cards should be removed before rom updating. You may be able to repair or re aquire some of the files via a card reader and your PC and perhaps doing a scandisk etc.

Good luck anyway and sorry I cant help more.

I also have never removed my SD card to flash a new ROM, and never had an issue. I also flashed Death V2 with my SD card in my Tilt with no issues....that being said, maybe I will start removing it based on this issue :rolleyes:

Bummer dude.

Unfortunately :confused: I did not remove the card. As a matter of fact I have flashed close to a million times (slight exageration) with my card in the tilt but had never faced this problem. Strange thing happened while I was setting up the device using Schaps Advance Config, I usually set all the default folders for pics, music etc to be in Storage card. After setting and soft resetting some of the files came back to life but not all and I still see garbled forlders and files. I have also tried the card on my PC and Laptop but with same results. But anyways thanks guys for your help. I hope someone will figure this out :confused:

Yeah, sorry to hear that. Hopefully you are able to retrieve all your data.

The Wireless LAN menu option in comm manager is not working - the registry entry is pointing to WLanMgr.exe and should point to WLanSettings.exe.
Cheers,

Thank you, fixed for next release!

I just installed arcsoftmms composer 5.0.31.7 and i cant send or receive pics
Any particular reason since this has 5.0.31.19?
HTC Audio Manager would be cool in the next release.
Speaking of media players when i go to start>programs>media There is an application there that named "player" and it doesn't work. Anyone else have this or is it something I added after?

player is TCpmp v0.72rc1 and works just fine on mine.. but your not the only one to report this issue
your bad :-0 it is supposed to be the TCPMP plaer and it works well for us all ne (though i would prefer to see TCPMP linked as applic with Youtubeplayer as buffer etc can be managed )
What soft does the Youtubeplayer uses anyway?
Audio manager cab installed and is now linked with shortcut through "today-item" set up.
This for me starts to smell as an almost perfect ROM
(Mortscript is still bugging me, but I know think Shogun made an inside joke > "Mort" is French for "Death" (kidding)
PS. I flashed radio 1.65.14.06 and guess what... 1 bar plus reception on same static location. Need to test GPS outside later on
not sure what youtube player uses, its something that was developed here, i gave link to it somewhere earlier in this thread.
The mortscript error is coming from Personalizer, you should be able to go to add remove programs and uninstall it.. i am probably going to exclude this from future releases.
Some ideas for the final version of the Death ROM:
- HTC Audio Player TAB in HTC Home
- Connection Wizard
- new dialer
- link to Office Mobile in the program folder
- remove customer feedback...
I have considered the first item, unsure at this point...
Connection wizard will come on final release
new dialer is still up for discussion, i have been trying different ones, etc
Office mobile is in the start menu, i could move it programs folder if everyone would prefer that?
customer feedback is removed, the icon is there though.
1.64.08.21
I'll try 1.68.20.29 - as I see it in your signature
UPDATE: I re-flashed Death V2, sound works again and I see that 1.68.20.29 is the default radio for this ROM. I hope it'll last. Somehow, I feel the problem was caused by installing an application. Not sure which one, though.
I have tried those 2 radio's, plus the radio from hell and experienced no audio loss, i think there has been 1 other person report this. Its more than likely caused by an installed application as you noted.
After reading through mostly good stuff about this rom I decided to install it in my Tilt. Despite the fact that the rom is super fantastic BUT the flashing has caused my 6GB SD card to show garbled files. I SEEM TO HAVE LOST ALL MY DATA ON THE CARD. When I check the memory used, it shows me that the sd card has more than 3 gb used, so I am hoping that the data is still there. Please please pretty please someone HELP me recover those files.
Its always good to remove your card before flashing. However, this can also occur if you had your card encrypted from the previous rom. either way it sounds like your hosed... hope you can retrieve your data

Screen Align is necessary... in one of my personal trials i had removed that, and the alignment was constantly off, had to keep going in to align it..

Go into start -> settings -> System -> Regional Settings -> Time. Then highlight Timestyle and with the dpad click all the way up to h:mm:ss tt.

thanks for the quick reply. I tried changing the setting as you specified but it did not change the o2 wireless plugin that shows on the today screen. I reset the phone and even took off the plugin and turned it back on again. nothing. ill keep looking it has to be here somewhere.

has anyone had an issue with the sound not working. I think it might be the radio i'm using 1.58.21.23. Is anyone else using this radio. Also when adjusting the volume for the phone and the speaker, the sound doesnt work. Any solutions

I don't believe this radio is compatible with this rom. Why didn't you use the radio included with the rom?

I think only the 1.65 radio's work. I'm using 1.65.16.25 in the southeast, us.

Thanks Shogun.

The error occurs when trying to add/remove program. Seems some ghost files and Reg’s remain, resulting in the Mortscript error @ start-up.

Solution:
Re-install personalizerV2 http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/get-personalizer-v2-0.html
"wasted space here" occurs --> change with any text you want.

PS1:Tthe longer this ROM embeds itself, the more stable it becomes.
PS2: Hooray, with all soft , tweaks and patches installed, GXmark still has the 1588 score, similar as flashed out of kitchen.
PS3: Confirm that Radio 1.65.14.06 is best for battery consumption , #of bars and GPS.
GPS warm start goes to less than 15 seconds now.

What would cause me to score a 1588 on GXmark 1.1f on a fresh install of this rom? thats really really low isnt it?

It is not , me think. Look at the GXmark thread page. 1400-1500 is the benchmark now for current releases.
Some reported +1700 which is doubtfull - except if the latest dll from HTC stock roms might be used.

But heck, what those these values mean? if we're happy with a redraw of a 6 vs 2 ns (?visible :D) than a score does not mean much.
My 30fps videos work well now. And even in WMP which they never did before.

Thanks for the info. I ran the version that was included in this rom. I just assumed it was the same one he used for the initial scores. I guess not. so 1588 is fine :) just wanted to make sure my phone wasnt jacked. My camera moves like shit lol.

Hi, I had exactly the same problem. In my case it might have been caused by the radio, but also by installing a "bad" application. The only thing I did was a quick reflash. My radio is 20.29 and so far so good.

I know people have talked about the blank white screen flashing during standby.. but is there really no fix for it? not a problem but a bit annoying at times!

also the comm manager bug is annoying at times as well..

other than that I absolutely love this ROM, by far the best I have used yet!

I had 1.2.2 working well on DeathV2. :)

Removed it and bought from Mobihand new 1.2.4 with Serial :mad:

issue 1: can not input the new genuine serial message pops up' Unable to validate Serial Number abd/or user ID
issue 2: playing either MP3 or video, screen remains black.

Anyone has similar issue - solution as I damn wanna stick to this V2 without loosing Coreplayer :p

Had an issue similar to an earlier post about missed calls. However, from reading Bengalih's thread on MSVC, seems that by settting MSVC to announce calls through BT headset, the phone does not ring. Decided to change Ringer to Ring and Vibrate with the same MSVC setting. Now, the phone vibrates a
