Correct the link please!

[fataldeath44]

guys please comment about the speed, and if it is better than the others. thanks

[JanDaMan]

Thanx for the work and upload man

Im currently using the 1.37.407. ROM but im guessing that it uses the .net Compact Framework 2.0 protocol, what i want to know is what is the big difference between that and the 3.5 version on your ROM, plz let me know coz i am always keen to eak out a bit more performance... :D

[theloanranger]

On .net CF apps in particular, you'll see a noticeable speed improvement IMHO.

re: the issues list in the first post, that refers to issues identified specific to this ROM.

Link in first post corrected.

[mkhattab]

There is DEFINITELY an improvement in speed. I wonder if it will slow down eventually like the others but so far it is definitely the fastest out there

[Yzord]

[Reason4444]

Update from RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.37.707.1...

First impressions:

--- Realy realy fast... Probably fastest rom still out there...

--- Still no issues...

Thanks theloanranger... Great job...

[Riel]

Downloading...
(hell, what a server, 1.60Mb/sec)

[Spitwroot]

I installed this from stock 1.34 and WOW what a difference! Just had the opportunity to use it for 3.5 hours straight with a combination of games, reading, video and tomtom7.

It was fast and slick. Never had to reset once.

I used it all the time with auto backlight and battery is still at 50%, so yes battery life defo improved.

I was slightly unhappy with my diamond but now its everything i hoped it would be.

THANKS :)

[rivmin]

guys please comment about the speed, and if it is better than the others. thanks

Clean flash, soft reset some times, Dynamix 3D Benchmark: 6833.

[kraan73]

I've tried 1.37.405.1 and 1.37.707.1. Now I flashed to this ROM. I can tell you that this one is the fastest yet. And I wasn't really impressed by the 707 (SEA) one. More lags than the 405. I'm really satisfied with this cooked ROM, thanks a lot!!

[zmob123]

Good job my man, fast and furious. The ROM is efficient and the memory seems to be a tad better as well. No issues that I have seen so far, but I have not gone in deep yet. The only thing missing is the animated startup which I just manually entered in the registry (I like it), but on the other hand you left it open for customization. Thanks for leaving the OEM files on there. What do you have planned for this ROM?

[andremgomes]

Is it possible to activate 850 Mhz radio ? (to work with 850 carriers?)
thanks

[psaras]

Good job!
Thank you:)

[ceevee369]

This will be as possible as extracting working Diamond 3D drivers on a TytnII :p
Sorry pal, but you'll have to wait for the US releases.
Blame it on your carriers - providers :(

[mkhattab]

Tell me which rom you used before.
I have tried them all...
- The 1.35.426 which came with my device
- Elite 1.0
- (the widespread-hyped Euro/Mideast one which I thought was crap)
- PDAVIET v01
- 1.37.707.1

Okay - I've flashed again - now on 1.37.456.2 WWE and it is certainly better than this one.
To be honest I didn't too much time on 1.37.405.1 before flashing to 1.37.456.2 but I can definitely feel a difference in responsiveness with TFL3D and everything else

[mgear356]

there is a audio booster bug when enabled, after sometime the sound produced by earphones would be "tiny" (bassless)

only way to resolve it is to disable audio booster while music is playing and unplug and replug in back to the htc jack..

if u can fix it, i am getting yr rom :)
and is it possible to make one for 1.37.707.1?

[Ginkan]

i flashed to this rom then i could not read my sms/email with my Diamond again, wat wrong with me? ~

[malmushiri]

Thanks....Downloading to try.:)
(after the update)
Looks good so far not much faster and it could be the langauge pack I installed on it.

Thanks again.

Hi Guys,

I've tried to upload TLR Diamond ROM, but have had no success.

I've ran "Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex.zip" and then tried run the TLR Diamond ROM but unfortunately it just remains on 0%.

I'm obviously doing something wrong, any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

OK, you're new and I know it might be confusing as I reported to Olinex .;)
You're simply running the wrong HardSPL.
You need to install unsigned developer version. And do a hard reset after flashing. (find it in your manual)

[dennydb]

Sam problem here.
Please post a link for the right hardspl.

Thanks

hello, I've flashed this rom and it is extrem fast... no bugs found yet.

great job! go on!

[Yzord]

Could the flashers of this rom please try Dynamix 3d benchmark and post their result here?

With my stock rom i had 3850 and with 1.37.404 6810 fps. How many do you guys have with this rom?

[ceevee369]

Can someone check settings - buttons.
i guess we should see 6 at least, but I only find one...?

Maybe i am missing something and it might not be a bug.
Running this ROM now 24 hours (playing with it for at least 6) and It looks we have a good base to cook with.

[pauljohn54]

Very pleased with the ROM, thank you.

The device is pretty much almost upto my initial purchase expectations thanks to this ROM.

One feature request if at all possible. Really would greatly appreciate it if someone could work out how to remove certain tabs from the touchflo 3d.

[theloanranger]

The ethos behind TLR ROMs is to make them stock in appearance, as fast as possible and easily updated.

None of us like reflashing our devices every week, so TLR ROMs will be updated via the 'Additions' package for minor tweaks and updates as they appear, with full ROM flashes available only in the event of significant updates.

I'm just downloading the 1.37.456.2 ME ROM to see if there's anything useful in there.

all the ROM's i have tried have that, only the one programmable button (for the call button) so yeah its not you. But you can make some changes to the call end long press under Settings - system tab - Long Press End Key. but that's it, so no its not just you, its everyone. Think you can change that in a cooked ROM?

[Blob8me]

This ones probably best answered by "theloneranger" unless anyones tried yet - BUT - does this Rom work with bbconnect (BlackBerry) or are we still waiting for walshieau and the HEX editted Elite 2.0?

(Foot Note to explain why I'm so keen on a bbconnect fix!!!)

As a heavy business user getting my email straight to my phone (via blackberry connect) is soooooo important and being without it is "killing me" and I'm only hanging in there because the Diamond really is great to use in all other respects and I keep getting "glimmers" of hope that the bbconnect issue will be fixed?

[theloanranger]

I'm not a bbconnect user myself, so no idea if it works.

If you tell me more about the problem, I might be able to work thru fixing it with u.

[johnkorver]

Could someone post free storage and program memory after a soft reset with touchflo 3d activated?

(Ran Pocketmechanic Pro to remove dead dll's and reg's)

Indeed, I hope a tweak can be found to have more buttons linked to other programs.

Grrr, have to wait for my battery to charge over 50% before I can flash, looking forward to trying it out though.

You're simply running the wrong HardSPL.

Thanks ceevee369, have uploaded new ROM and been playing with it.

I'm not sure about everyone else but there are still lag when flicking through pictures but definite improvement.

Thanks!!

[Chatbox]

I just completed flashing my Diamond (purchased from HK's 1010 network provider).

This is definitely the fastest ROM to date. You'll really notice the difference when you launch Opera.

[JanDaMan]

OK yeah nice ROM man, it is faster than the standard 1.37 ROM's (i noticed you have tweaked Glyph cache up to 32KB form 8KB, and increased the filter cache up to 4096 sectors, nice)
One problem i have noticed and cant find a solution to is the clock on the Home scree is in 24 hour mode (no pm, am) and not 12 hour mode like it used to be, how do you change it back, i don't see an option in the clock settings page, what am i missing... 24 hr clock bugs me, cumon who in the UK uses 24 hour clock ;) lol
thanx in advance ppl

PS. love the implementation of the MoDaCo UK localisation project :D

Thanks for the offer to help :) I'm not technical enough to fully understand why bbconnect doesnt work from one Rom to the next as there seem to be a few reasons - the Thread below deals with current progress and discussion - Walshieau is working on a fix for the next Elite 2.0 release - maybe he'll share some of the more "techy" stuff with you?

I decided to stick with your release(s) for a while (untill you let me down :D)
You might open a Paypal account (hint)

Gonna run AppToDate now an see if the cork stopped the leak in the ship :p

EDIT: I hope all goes well as the previous tlr-diamond additions cab is over written.

EDIT II: Job well done - everything went fluidly. Damn, if all Chef's would use ApptoDate, the world would be a better place

I thought the TLR was the fastest until i flashed the ME ROM. yuo can notice the difference especially the 3d touchflo!!

[theloanranger]

As of the new 1.08.06.23 additions, the benefits of the ME ROM are in here too :)

[theloanranger]

As promised, additional apps now online in first post.

[faethon]

I'm working on as many performance enhancements as possible, including identifying leaks, and these will be deployed OTA via AppToDate.

Sorry to bother you, but is the AppToDate started from the ROM, and will it download and update the components of the ROM automatically? And will it overwrite the old components?

[theloanranger]

Yes, yes and yes ;)

[ceevee369]

Sorry to bother you, but is the AppToDate started from the ROM, and will it download and update the components of the ROM automatically? And will it overwrite the old components?

Post 349: YES, it over writes old TLR settings. no, it does not remove programs.
You'll just need to optimize some personal settings again.

Reading is knowledge.:)

[blognews]

I am still downloading the rom (http://theloanranger.romraid.com/tlr-diamond-1.08.06.20.exe) for over an hour.....:eek:

Tell you what, waiting kills......

Any mirror link so far ? :p

[JanDaMan]

hmmm i installed Cyberon Voice Commander, but cant see it in the programs/open it

[theloanranger]

I installed it to test and got the 'Voice Speed Dial' item in Programs.

[JanDaMan]

I installed it to test and got the 'Voice Speed Dial' item in Programs.

lol no voice speed dial is different thats the included Microsoft app, there should be a program called "Cyberon Voice Commander" its different and better coz you dont have to program in voices, and you can launch apps on it etc, i had it on my original ROM

and since you can only see the standard voice speed dial app, it does not seem to have worked 4 you either...

[theloanranger]

No, voice speed dial is the cyberon app... and is what comes on the diamond. There is a voice commander app by cyberon, but it's not in the standard diamond ROM.

You can see for yourself, uninstall the CAB and 'voice speed dial' disappears...

What you have installed is what is repackaged from the standard ROM!

[theloanranger]

OK so here's the deal...

UK ROM (1.37.405.1) - Cyberon Voice Speed Dial
ME ROM (1.37.456.2) - Cyberon Voice Speed Dial

Asia ROM (1.37.707.1) - Cyberon VOICE COMMANDER

I'll repack that in a bit and put in the first post.

Guess we found another difference between the ROMs :)

I ran into a small issue with the AppToDate just now.
I was installing the new ROM update (just update, not a complete flash). It requires restarting of the device, I did that. But upon restarting, the devices had some strange behaviour; I was at the Password prompt (because I enabled the Lock feature on my device, for security reasons), but at this prompt, something was sending keystrokes to it and the device was not responding well (it was still responding, but something in the background was using a lot of the CPU cycles). I would see text being input into the Password prompt automatically, by something. I'm guess it's something about the post-update-installation that caused this.

Any ideas?

I would suggest others to disable the Lock before updating the ROM with AppToDate.

[Ronnymes]

No problems with the BT?
And can someone tells me, how's the standby time?

[mixmaven]

Thanks, I am happy that people will share their hard work with the rest of us. The install went perfect, lovin all that fresh rom goodness!

A++ would do business with again <-- if this was ebay :)

well i have flashed my rom a couple hours ago, i have to tell it's just a lot faster! it feelst fast, so i am verry happy with this one.

Keep up the good work!

Yep, I have to agree, very good work indeed. :) Especially the AppToDate application is a treat and worth gold. Thanks a lot!!!

[tha_rami]

I'll write this from the point of view of someone who doesn't care about the technicalities. Sure, I'm a developer, but for my phone I just want it to work.

Thank you for this one. Extremely glad to have installed it, just had to re-install Google Maps as indicated but besides that, now my Diamond feels like it's worth the money I paid for it. Didn't pay for no darn lag-fest fitting in my pocket, right?

AppToDate feels and works perfectly judging by the update I just received as well. Thanks to little things like allowing OTA updates, this whole ROM feels good, works good and doesn't 'change' the experience besides making it better. For an OS, little details like this make or break things.

Also, the fact that nothing is 'missing' and all the original features remain is a real plus for this one. Contrary to, lets say, the missing keyboard functions in PDAVIET's ROM, or Tweeter missing in another (or was it the same?) ROM.

After installing this ROM by using the Hard-SPL Developers edition (of which I'd like to thank the creators), your data will be gone, and your mobile will be set to the English language. Besides that, there is no obvious difference between the original ROM and this one, basically all that happens is that the thing feels and ís faster. Improvements like the updated .NET engine must do their trick because TouchFlo 3D barely lags anymore.

Kudo's to you, have a pie.

[dazbradbury]

I'd like to say thanks also... Works really well for me.

Just wondering though, should I be expecting the ROM version to appear as 1.35.707.3 (my original) in device information? Or is that down to me doing an SPB "rom upgrade" restore?

Cheers, Daz.

Something I wondered about as well. I concluded the version you see is the version of the TLR Diamond ROM, not of the stock ROM that is used as base for the 'cooked ROM'. I wonder why they don't just say 'custom ROM'.

The first post is the proof:
TLR Diamond ROM 1.08.06.20, based on the UK 1.37.405.1 (latest!) ROM.

[Baronic]

COuld someone please check out these problems on this ROM?

AppToDate is a killer feature, nobody likes reflashing.

I have not installed it yet as I currently have the non-dev SPL, but if your ROM isn't signed tomorrow I will have to swap I guess :P

[iliasstudio]

so we can easely find this back

just did the upgrade from a dutch version 1.35.xx to this latest 1.08.06.20 TLR release

everything ofcourse turned to english (great for me so no worries)

Belgium Proximus provider was regognized : great!
rebooted to update the provider settings
had to do a reset after boot

had to redo the E-mail push configuration (certificate etc..)

Superb improvement !!!
good job

[Riel]

Hmm

anyone having problems with Opera on this Rom?


I was lying in bed surfing the net :p I had phone connected to the charger, and using WiFi here. It got quite hot (it always does) but opera was shutting down on me all the time.

Just POP, back to home screen, fully closed. Started it up again, but in a few minutes POP, off it goes.

I also have the problem of the Keyboard constantly popping up in Opera.

[sandervanzijl]

"updated" is not really good enough for me.

could someone let us know what is "updated" in the me rom?

[P996]

Use the SEARCH function, there is a post where all the different program versions are named. Bottom line is: the ME ROM seems to have newer apps.

[theloanranger]

Opera is fine for me btw.

re: what is updated in latest additions, it is listed earlier in this thread, and if you want to see before updating, in AppToDate click on the additions line and click 'fullscreen description'. :)

[theloanranger]

Just a quick nod to the 152 different people (at time of writing) who've installed the ROM and updated their additions.

Nice one! :)

Credit to you. So, now you have our IP's I guess?
PS. You might have noticed that I reccomended your ROM for signing by Olinex team if you don't mind. It is simply the best available yet.
Used it for a whole day, moderate usage, some gaming, sms, google maps loading, internet and still got 65% capacity.
As for the memory leak, I started with 47 mB this morning and stil had 25MB this evening in "program" This without emptying cache or closing applications.

No at all, AppToDate just keeps track of how many times checks are done and how many times by unique devices to give developers usage stats.

Thanks for the recommendation re: signing! :)

sorry, pardon my english.

i offcourse do not mean what is updated. because everybody can see the update version numbers. i mean. what is different between the version of a certain application like "volume manger" and its updated version. just mentioning that it is updated is a bit unclear to me.

What other ROMs have you tried?

By your last remark in regards to memory leak, I take it its still present?

I'm currently using the 137.456.2 ROM. I now have 50.06 memory free in program memory, I have been using all kinds of applications all day like Google maps and Tomtom etc. The ROM i'm using is quite good inregards to the memory leak.

edit: One last question! Is there still a lag when when opening a reply message in the SMS. ?

Hi all,

Installed the ROM and all appeared well - however I have a problem. Shortly after a soft-reset the 'tap here to set up touchFLO' screen appears and it seems to lock the entire device. I can do nothing other than soft-reset again.

Anyone else had this or solved it?

Rich
from my experience: don't tap, wait. sometimes it took a longer time, maybe related to the waiting for the phone signal maybe because of other processes. let it be for a while don't jump to tap it:D
same thing like installing a program, getting full bars and "remaining one second" but it'll take another minute to finish...:D

[rakh1]

Hi - ok, I hard reset the device and let it take its time without rishing it. It started, played the intro movie on how to use touchflo and then touchflo started and it promtped me to install Vodafone settings - which I did. It then restarted and allowed me to put in my SIM unlock code. It then went to the 'tap here to start TouchFLO' screen and has now been there for over 3 minutes. I can switch the display on/off and tapping the display switches the backlight on again once it has faded....but I can do nothing else with it...

ideas??

[rakh1]

Have since soft reset several times - ended up immediately going to settings and turning TouchFLO off. This allowed me to config the entire device without issue - LOVE AppToDate! I then turned touchflo back on. It didn't crash but I have had some 'laggy' experiences with the whole interface. YouTube wouldn't load etc. Since then I have soft reset a couple of times and not it appears to be more stable with everything working...

Seems odd that everyone had such a good experience apart from me - is there something I may have done wrong??? It seemed to go wrong right after the auto-config of the vodafone settings - anyone else used this on Vodafone (UK)?

yeah soft reset, then when it comes to the tap here to launch TF3D screen wait a second, then tap the start tab and let the start bar come down, then press the start bar again so the bar goes away, a second later it should say loading TF3D :D
it does seem to freeze from time to time when u just tap the screen, doing that start bar thing don't seem to freeze it (an odd work around i know but hey it works)

hope that makes sense

Yeah i have posted on that issue/fix a couple of times, just enable it in advanced config, i dont think tomtom will enable it no, and i doubt it will use much more/any more battery than normal GPS :)

p.s it is like that on all ROM's (not unique to this one)

[Mahmood]

the update manager is nice application just like paul did in athena project. But when updating and the checking again all the software are there !! so if it is installed isn't it the meaning that the software that are installed should not be there and if there is a new version then u can install it after seeing them just like updating in windows (XP or vista)

Funny thing is that after opening some SMS messages, and clicking around a bit in the 'all messages' folders I suddenly seem to have all my messages back. It may be because I recovered these messages after a recent ROM flash and needed to activate them in the 'all messages' interfaces maybe?

I think the problem with enabling this would lead to too many conflicts in the phone, apparently HTC looked at making that ring work with scrolling but decided not to because it just didnt work that well.

haha, no I don't think so, rottentomatoes is a very respectable movie review site. A long running quality site which I frequent often as well... :-)

On topic: I have the feeling that this ROM seem to run the battery flat quite fast.... I previously had the 1.35.403.1 and the 1.37.707.1 and they seemed to take a bit longer with one charge of the battery.... Maybe the .NET 3.5 is more of a burden (only significant change I guess...)?

Could you include Flast Player lite, as sites with Flash do not load in Opera.

After installing the cab, sites like Metacafe etc. crash during the time of loading the video.

[ceevee369]

a few answers (repetitive though):( on previous posts.

No, no Dutch, this is an English ROM. Go back to a Dutch version.

0% when flashing? read through the hard SPL pages. You're not using the correct HARD SPL.

Teeter cab? it won't play on anythinh els than a Diamond though. As the chef whom did not included in his releases (viet?) to make it. or change to a ROM where it is included.

[Urosh]

Hi!

I flashed my diamond with this ROM and it seems perfect.
I have just one question... because I was used to use PocketZenPhone with my old phon (Qtek S200) but now I cannot use it because TF3D doesn't permitt to use any othe items... do you think it would be possible to cook in a new ROM one profile swithcer?? like PZP is? That changes a lot of settings with one touch (also bluetooth, wifi, radio, etc..)??

Thanks!!

[cojones]

Good ROM so far, thanks for your efforts. You invited feedback, and I see that someone else has this problem too but the Diamond has suddenly lost the ability to play bass in music.

I flashed the ROM on Tuesday morning, listened to music perfectly until Wednesday evening when all of a sudden all bass in the music was lost and the playback was very tinny.

I do not know if this is an artefact of this ROM or a legacy from the base ROM but do you know the cause and/or solution? Is a fix planned?

re: Flash Lite request, check first post.

re: basing it on 1.37.456.2, the core is the same as this ROM, and the improvements come from updated application bits from HTC, which are deployed already in the latest 'additions' via AppToDate.

Running the apptodate in Elite 2.0 is completely fine. I copy the apptodate.exe from my 2nd Diamond (Elite 2.0) to the other(TLR ROM 1.37.405.1), and it run without problem.

Just extract the attached file, copy and overwrite in \windows

Cool it has Configuration setup for my local Hong Kong Operator so that was a relief & skip the hassle of manual input of proxy server settings on the device!
I might be speaking too soon but I think I'm going to like this much better.

Was just wondering, in terms of "fixes / enhancements", I'm assuming that it'll even including Registry tweaks that was posted on another link on this forum? I already noticed something when unit boots up, no htc.gif & none of that annoying wave sound each time during soft-resets. :p

hmm i noted that a few others have pointed this out: that AppToDate keeps showing the same updates, even after you have 'updated' you device and restarted it... is it meant to do that?

I had exactly the same problem. I noticed that it was constantly on the same sites. I then suspected it had something to do with flash.

Yes this is a very annoying problem! It is indeed related to flash, when ever you try to access a page which has flash is embedded on it the browser completely shuts down/crashes.

Anyone had any GPS start-up issues with this ROM.

[outkasted]

i have bought a non-3G diamond in India.... as i couldn wait for the 3G version to release...
but i desperately want to flash my device with this ROM .... is it possible?
kindly lemme know
THX in Advance

[Chatbox]

I had exactly the same problem. I noticed that it was constantly on the same sites. I then suspected it had something to do with flash.
Once I disabled "Enable plug-ins" in Opera, the problems were gone!
Maybe it is some combination of this ROM/Opera with the Flash Lite cab from the start post :confused:

Hope this helps... :)

You're right on! It's a problem with the combination of this ROM with the Flash Lite cab from the first post.

Here's what I did to confirm it (in the following order):
Hard reset (I'm already using this ROM).
Went to rottentomatoes.com right away -> No problem. -> Manually quite Opera.
Install Flash Lite cab -> Went to rottentomatoes.com again -> Opera self termination.
Uninstall Flash Lite cab -> Went to rottentomatoes.com again -> No problem.

Looks like Opera 9.5 of this ROM and the Flash Lite cab from the first post don't really go well together.

Hi,

any plans to make it work with blackberry connect ? if so? estimation to accomplish?

is blackberry connect something that will come in this firmware?

[zyborg]

Hi folks,

Could someone please post a step-by-step guide to install of the signed version of this ROM? It is not completely clear to me (I admit it, I'm a n00b...) as the unsigned version was an .exe file and the signed version is a complete list of files. Do I still have to install the (signed) Hard-SPL first? Thank you.

[tanay1989]

IS it safe to install on HTC Touch Enhanced (P3452)?

[clemo71]

Hi all, like zyborg I'm a noob too. Theres 4 application files in the hard spl folder. which is the correct app to install hard spl before flashing??

[clemo71]

I've just bit the bullet & loaded TLR rom on my diamond - everything went fine & I did a hard reset after I'd flashed the ROM, but I've just checked the ROM version & it says its still 1.37.405.1 WWE. Is this right ??

That's what I have showing in my device information. I believe that is correct as that is what TLR ROM is based on

Thanks Loan Ranger for the great work. I really love apptodate, it is a great idea.

[clemo71]

Ok, just checking. Loan Ranger - Nice one!!!:D

[dnanian]

I'm seeing a strange thing with this ROM (that could be in the shipped one): if I use the FM Radio a few times with Bluetooth on, and then try to actually use Bluetooth (say, turn on discoverability, add a new device), bluetooth seems to be off, and either 'pinwheels' or just exits.

I have to reset the device to recover bluetooth.

Anyone else seeing this?

[waqasejaz786]

The adobe flash lite 2.1 installed either on TLR Diamond ROM or on 1.137.456.2 WWE does not work properly. If you open opera and go to websites such as www.youtube.com or www.rottentomatoes.com, the opera downloads 50% of the webpage and then closes. This happens all the time. Please can anybody suggest a fix?

[Spawn12]

Disappointed in this rom, sure its fast and all but one major bug ive found and i know a few people have mentioned it earlier on...when you get a text msg...it comes up in touchflo3d but when you click on all messages...its not there:confused:...so how do i resolve this issue??...ive went through all my folders and cant see anything.

Any ideas???

edit: ok seems like ive fixed it...just did a restart and got a txt msg...went into all messages and it showed up...very strange lol...guess it needed a restart to sort it out.

[kayzee]

can anyone tell me what is the radio version of this rom??
thanks so much!!

when i take a shot its saved in internal storage/my documents and not in the right folder internal storage/my documents/my pictures that is the folder showed on TF3D , its just for me ?

[j0bro]

I am experiencing the same sort of issue; after taking a photo, the defaults Album place is 'Camera Shots', but it turns out to be empty. Instead I have to manually select 'My Documents' as the correct location. Any ideas on how to tackle this one? Is "Camera Shots" supposed to be a folder somewhere?

I am using the TLR ROM with latest fixes via AppToDate.

[Spawn12]

Im running the TLR rom and just took a picture and it shows up in my album.

Perhaps give it a soft reset and see if the problem goes away...if not then try a hard reset and see if that fixes it.

But as far as my Diamond is concerned, its taking the pics and storing them in the album.

Camera Shots is at My Documents folder, under My Pictures and My Videos......I think it is empty beore because of the different setting to where the images/videos should be located (ROM or Internal Storage)

Mine's OK

[zyborg]

Hi,

I get VERY high volume in the headphones with the internal 3DTouchFlow/HTC media player even though I turn the volume down to the lowest setting using the volume keys on the left side of the device.
CorePlayer and Windows Media Player have built-in volumen sliders, which makes it possible for me to lower the volume, but this is missing from the internal player.

Anyone experiencing the same thing?

[j0bro]

Mine's OK

Solved it..!
It turns out that Camera Shots is a search folder that combines the My Pictures and My Videos folders. Except, when you apply the TF3D language tweak (I did to get it in Dutch), one needs to make some registry changes.
For the TF3D language tweak I changed HKCU\MUI\CurLang from 409 to 413 (hex, for Dutch). To get the Camera albums to work again, I changed:

HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\Image\SaveFolder_0409
HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\Image\GpsSaveFolder_0409
HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\Video\SaveFolder_0409

by replacing 409 with 413. Job done, all is fine again :cool:

[Riel]

Thanx man, needed that sorted out ;)

[theloanranger]

A little update for you all...

- I am investigating the SMS problem which I have now had on the stock ROM too! This occurs VERY VERY VERY occasionally in my experience, and can be resolved by closing messaging (long press X) and reopening

- It seems Flash Lite doesn't like the UK shipped build of Opera 9.5. I am currently differencing this build with the one shipped in the Flash Lite featuring ROMs, and will deploy a fix via AppToDate TLR Additions as soon as I have one ready.

I hear from HTC a completely new build for the Diamond (again!) is out shortly, so likely I will have a new ROM based on that in due course.

[xenocide976]

great! looking forward and thanks for the effort!

[puschkin]

I can't change any values on these folders ?????

[Radeon123]

Ignore my post. Found what I needed.

[Mauser.NET]

I can't change any values on these folders ?????

What do you mean?
If you mean the photo folders, you just have to rename these keys in the registry. So not change the values in them, but rename the keys themselves.
Offcourse this can be done with the registry editor of your choice. I did it with Resco.

[thommic]

Maybe it has been answered already but I cant find anything.

I have the issue with all OS releases that after a while the audio goes away. No audio in phonecalls, no audio in general.

Now I have hard resetted the device. After the initial calibration thingy you get the message that some applications will get installed in 3.. 2.. 1.. and then it starts.

This time I have resetted the device again before the time was over. So i got application or whatever installed. Now I have no Opera, No Touchflo3d and so on installed and the device is working fine. After some hours of use I still have audio isues anymore but I have the feeling the device works a bit slower then before with installing the default stuff.

Can someone please let me know what will get installed after the initial startup?

Thanks in advance!

[ahegazi]

I tested almost every ROM, and this one is the slowest. Am I the only one here?

[psaras]

You can please tell me who was the faster?
Thank you

[ahegazi]

You can please tell me who was the faster?
Thank you

Though some commnted on the "100% processor usage" which I can't confirm, I think that Elite 2.0 is way faster. It's has it's pros & cons like removing all the alarms... but still... I think it's faster and has a lot of memory available for use.

[Tibby666]

I think so, flashed mine it's quick as hell and i have no problems @ all.
I did some xtra tweaking the gdi maybe that helped a lot.

For this ROM - So far, so good. I hope you cook another one soon...:D

@ TLR:

Would /could you consider including S-K tools (see thread above ) in your app to date release.
this is a MUST HAVE in all upcoming cooked ROM's from all chefs :-)

I am incredibly satisfied with your ROM which I am running now since the first day of release (and I did tried indeed the others, except Elite 2...)

Though Dutty is lurking behind a corner somewher I am sure :D

[theloanranger]

There's certainly no reason why GSen couldn't be bundled into the additions, I imagine I will include it in a future ROM release.

If you install it manually, it already has AppToDate support.

[theloanranger]

Would anyone like to see TouchFlo 3D as uninstallable on the next ROM?

[RSkillz]

Always nice to have at least that option.

Think I'm one of those users that will switch back one day to the old interface (once the novelty wears off) with additional plugins installed/enabled.

[theloanranger]

I'm testing that functionality now for the next ROM release!

[Mauser.NET]

I'm testing that functionality now for the next ROM release!

Just to tease us... aprox when will your next ROM be released and what extra candy will it include? :rolleyes:

[theloanranger]

Changes so far include...

- Flash Lite in base ROM
- Optimised Opera install
- Uninstallable Manila
- Updated packages as featured in TLR Additions update

Other stuff will be added as it comes available. I am waiting for the next MAJOR update really, but if there's interest, I can make a 'next release Beta' available?

[Spawn12]

TLR any chance of bbconnect on the next rom ie a working version??. WOuld be great if you can get a version working on the Diamond...at the moment i have to carry 2 phones and i dont really like that...would rather get rid of the Blackberry phone i have now and replace it with the Diamond which has a working version of bbconnect.

[theloanranger]

I don't really have a handle on what is needed to make this work i'm afraid :(

[moonlanding]

Has anyone else seen a big battery drain with this ROM if you load up google maps and set it to use the GPS? It was lasting a day and a half with light use - now barely 4 hours. It's happened to me twice now and neither closing the programme or a soft reset will stop the drain. Reflashing does though.

All I can think of is that the GPS stays on but I don't know how to tell if this is the case. I also used quickGPS.

Any ideas?

[Spawn12]

Ok:(, no worries...ill still flash to your new one and see how that goes.

[theloanranger]

The new WWE ROM that has just been posted (1.37.401.3) contains newer components than the shipped WWE ROM, but no new components compared to the TLR ROM + additions EXCEPT it has TouchFlo 3D 1.0.1630.30 (vs .23).

I will be firstly making .30 available as a seperate install CAB for TLR ROM users, and secondly I will of course be baking it into my new ROM.

I WON'T be deployed it via 'additions', as I feel it should be a seperate install due to the fact it will inevitably increase storage memory usage (as it will install alongside the 'ROM' version (unavoidable)). Of course, this may not be too much of an issue and it may well be worth it!

Watch this space.

[Spawn12]

TLR just a quick question...will your new rom have the tweaks incorporated in it or is it a case of having to do them manually??. I know your previous rom had the tweaks enabled already...was just wondering if it will be the same with the new rom that your currently working on.

Cant wait for your new rom though, so far your first one has been the best ive used.

[theloanranger]

The new ROM will be pre-tweaked too.

VERSION 1.0.1630.30 OF TOUCHFLO 3D (MANILA) IS NOW AVAILABLE IN CAB FORM FOR TLR ROM USERS.

You can grab the CAB installer here (http://theloanranger.romraid.com/tlr-manila.cab), please note you MUST go to System -> Settings -> Today and turn off TouchFlo 3D before installing (and then turn it back on after installing / rebooting).

Since this is a CAB rather than ROM integrated (for your convenience), it WILL use up to 20MB of Storage, so bear this in mind! It IS completely uninstallable.

A new TLR ROM with this integrated will be available in due course!

TLR fans (:p), i'll have a pre-release version of ROM 2.08.07.01 online shortly for your pleasure.

According to the link on the right the new ROM has other enhancements aswell as the TF3D upgrade... http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs/index.php
is that true??? and will they be included in your ROM

[theloanranger]

It's sorta true. It has enhancements over the previous UK / WWE ROM, but those enhancements (aside from the Manila) are already included in the TLR additions and the ME ROM.

Just testing the Manila uninstall and this new version will be ready to roll. Unfortunately, uninstalling circa 950 files seems to be taking an AGE!

Then I have to upload the ~100MB file too ;)

[Spitwroot]

Cant wait, loved your first ROM.

Can anyone tell me which is the best settings to use in Sprite backup in anticipation for the new ROM.

The last time it asked for 3 levels on the restore and I just clicked one and hoped for the best.

I just want my programs and PIM data saving and then to restore back. I am worried because someone said that certain backups actually put old drivers etc back on over the new ROM stuff.

[sandro.bertini]

TheLoanRanger,

I noticed that in your rom you have disabled the functionality of muting the ring tone when the phone is turned face down.

I find that one of the nice features of the diamond, do you have any reason to have disabled it? I found the tweak to re-enable it and am teaching it to some people who is asking, so maybe other also like this function.

Great ROM, I am looking forward for the next release.

Thanks man

[webvan]

Entirely new core then, already ! Amazing bit if you think it's good, i'll take it !

[sohard4me]

really like your rom since i own a diamond :)

OK.... a 6 pack on your doorstep soon. you were one of the first to provide a good base ROM with well thought options, so I feel obliged :p

Just a Q; I am gonna stick for a while with your first release as I got it almost perfect (except for the icon issue)

If I continue using Apptodate on the first release, what is the risk that tweaks-updates for your V2 might slip in the V1 , and cause issues?

Is Apptodate for your releases ROM dependent?
TX!

[theloanranger]

The additions are versioned, v1 updates it's v1 additions, v2 updates it's v2 additions etc... so no worries there :)

For the 'thanks', I was gonna have the splash screen in the ROM as the standard one but with the names of donators in the background a really tiny grey font... cool or not?

[Sergio PC]

Good job my man, fast and furious. The ROM is efficient and the memory seems to be a tad better as well. No issues that I have seen so far, but I have not gone in deep yet. The only thing missing is the animated startup which I just manually entered in the registry (I like it), but on the other hand you left it open for customization. Thanks for leaving the OEM files on there. What do you have planned for this ROM?

I like it tooo how did you enable it again? Please thank u very much.
cheers boys
