[siniority]

would anyone know where i can get the command list for voice command?

[vilord]

Aak! I can't keep up!

Just kidding, thank you for putting in so much time for this! Phone's working awesome, especially with all the latest updates.

Thanks again, I'll post back if I find anything.

[vilord]

I forgot to ask... the changelog mentions updated display driver... are we getting closer to more complete 3d support?

Problem solved I tried windows vista and it worked.

[drewden123]

i'm having the same problem as solidus, but i can't really access a vista computer atm so it'd be nice if someone could help :)

Merry Christmas!

[siniority]

Install the driver in the archive below...

[vilord]

I had trouble with "repeat" for the sound for reminders in a past release, it wouldn't stop playing the sound every minute or so until I soft reset the device, even after dismissing the reminder... I don't know if that is fixed yet, I can try again if needed, but it was very annoying, hence not trying again.


Multi-select seems to work fine (at least in mob outlook), as long as there aren't so many items on screen that it is full, IE if I start the drag from below the last message, it'll allow me to multi-select, but thats it. If I can't drag from an empty area, I can't multi-select at all, and there isn't an option in the menu for "select multiple", which makes it very frustrating.


Lastly, a small thing: The Buttons control panel now has settings for long-press-end key, so we don't need an end-key control panel anymore.

Thanks!

[vilord]

I found a fix for multi-select with drag!

Not sure if you can include it in the rom, but at least adding this cab to your sdautorun will get us by 'till then :D

from this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2467455&postcount=867):

Apply this cab attached below.:)
I fixed multiple selection using it on my latest 20270 releasing soon...:p

Cheers!:cool:

Won't install for me :(
Nevermind, I had to close Outlook.

Great rom, works good on my phone.

I fixed my issue by changing the Today theme and was able to use RC Mod.

I enabled the Internet tab in M2DC, and I have opera mobile 9.5 launching, it's just defaulting to http://www.htc.com/ instead of what is set as default in the browser settings, currently http://www.google.com. How do I change what site the browser will launch to using the Internet tab?

Change it in the registry, HKEY_Local_Machine -> Software -> HTC -> Manila 2D -> Internet Widget -> Customized

Thanks! Works great now.

[hooover]

What kitchen do you use?

[eric2k]

he made his own :)

[NFSFAN]

the tap&drag fix, is actually just tmail.exe from an older build. It is 464kb vs 482kb from the 20931 sys... Not exactly sure how this will inpact any new features the newer tmail.exe had, but I will include it in the next rom release...

Also to the guy with the repeat sound problems, just turn off the repeat option in sounds & notifications, if it is causing issues for you. It works fine for me...

[makaveli0622]

I would like to install the cube...I find easier to access email. text and favorites from the cube while on another program. I tried installing the HTCCube, the HTCCubeYelllow cabs and get a meesage sayin that it cannot install because it does not have sufficient system permission. Any Ideas??? Can someone help me get the cube installed???

[bobzero]

hey... what happened to the NFSFAN section on PPCHaven ?? It's deleted ??

[yearn]

They had a disagreement and he removed it

[masterslacker]

They had a disagreement and he removed it

wonder what the disagreement was about for him to delete his entire section from that site!

[yearn]

Youd have to ask him

[wolfdv]

thats a shame about ppchaven.. but as long as i can still get my nfsfan rom here ... all is good! :)

[bobzero]

hey NFSFAN, does your ROM include the camera enhancements found here:

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=50730

[NFSFAN]

Yes... It does.

NOTE: Alltel ROM will be coming next week...

[derekwilkinson]

This is an awesome ROM!
I have some suggestions though (on things to add, Sprint ROM :))

1. Sprint animation/sound (I can send these to you, last time I tried to set this up I had to hard-reset :rolleyes: )
2. Opera Mobile
3. iContact
4. Sprint PictureMail
5. Possibly S2U2?
6. Original calculator (With Diamond theme; for speed; both could be included)
7. MusicID
8. Default M2D theme

I'm not sure if any of these are possible to add, but it would be cool to have them :D

Also, I seem to have a bug... In Live Search, when I click Categories (with any city selected), it loads for a few seconds, then crashes with this message: "Sorry, an error has occurred, and the application needs to close".

Once again, great ROM, it's my ROM of choice. :)

You may as well ask for him to build you a custom ROM that fits your needs...LOL!!!

[hooover]

Yes... It does.

I went over to PPCHaven to find you and I couldn't...check your pm-bro i need help still....


You have no evidence of ever exsisting there... omg!!!

Check post #267 in this thread. This solution works great!

Sorry to see NFS gone from the Haven . . . wonder if its a permanent thing . . .

[NFSFAN]

It was my decision to leave. Not theirs.

[Aceyalone]

Just installed this ROM today and everything appeared to go fine. However on the main screen I keep getting the message "Tap here to launch TouchFLO". I keep tapping it and nothing happens. I tried playing around with both the TouchFLO and Manilla2D settings but still can't get it to work.

Any suggestions? Thanks.

i have the same problem with the browser going to htc.com but i think it was from a previous rom install. even if i change the registry the browser still goes to htc.com. I go back into the registry and it has changed back to previous....hmmm.

You didn't mention the fact that you are using another theme...If so, that theme may be incompatible.

There are 2 keys... The one controlling the webpage in the M2D tab, and the other one controlling the text being displayed...

They are found at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\Manila2D\InternetW idget\Customized
string: BannerURL --> value: http://www.htc.com/
string: BannerURLText --> value: www.htc.com

[ramirata]

It's too bad about your departure over at PPCHaven. I am, however, glad that you didn't give up on your talents and are continuing you work on this site. Any site regarding PPC's is lucky to have you involved!! (Rom users are lucky too)
Happy New Year!

yeah i changed both of the them both and it still defaults back...like immediately, the changes aren't being saved or something is changing them back, after a soft result as well. I can save homepage under the settings tab and then when i open the widget i have to push the home icon and then it goes to google , but not if i click the globe.....i got a little OCD for this. But like i said i believe it's from a previous rom (not yours) from six months back, because i have the same boot screen too that stays even after flashes.

[harley!]

Spuzzum - I was having the same issue as you. Try using CeRegEditor to change the registry. After establishing an active sync connection, you access the registry from your desktop to make the changes, then hit save. This will allow your changes to the registry to stick. It worked for me.

Good luck.

Here is CeRegEditor:

Every time I try to install the 1.09 ROM to my Verizon XV6900, the Update Utility says . The phone screen goes to the tri-color screen and then the progress indicator, but a minute or two later I get "Error [262] : Update Error ... the ROM Update Utility has encountered communication errors during the update process."

I am able to remove and replace the battery in my phone and come out of rom update mode, luckily. However, i have tried this update on two different machines and I still have no luck.

I have tried both recommended unlockers (they pop up a command screen and then disappear after a couple of minutes, no confirmation or info about the unlock status).

Anyone have any suggestions?

[atoz350]

What version SPL do you have? Put the phone into bootloader and post what it says.

[HoMsEy-4-LiFe]

ok.. so while i was manually adding my contacts to my phone, the phone froze.... since nothing would respond anymore i had no choice but to take out the battery and put it back in to restart the phone. so when it restarted the touch screen wouldn't work anymore, i tried soft resetting it still wouldn't work.... should i reflash the phone?

[jbos6]

What version SPL do you have? Put the phone into bootloader and post what it says.

Atoz, my SPL is 0.36.0000. My bootloader screen reads:

VOGU100
SPL-0.36.0000
CPLD-3

nvm... i noticed that if i pressed really hard on the screen it would respond so i checked my pressurethreshold in my registry and it went all the way down to 300... bumped it back up and it works perfectly now

[football0552]

I saw how you mentioned to fix ICS over at PPC but couldn't seem to get it to connect to the computer still... could you go into more detail on how to get it to work with 1.09?

[atoz350]

Atoz, my SPL is 0.36.0000. My bootloader screen reads:

VOGU100
SPL-0.36.0000
CPLD-3

It looks like your phone is still locked. You'll have to unlock it first. use this unlocker from IamcoKEMAN. It is version 2.31.

After you run this then re-flash the ROM of your choosing.

First thing would be the theme as NFSFan mentioned.
Beyond that, I've sometimes had trouble with some of the m2d tabs.
Try going back to the customizer and turning off all but the main tab, then see if it'll launch. Also, did you change the font or anything?

You DID remember to let the customizations run, right? This rom has customizations put together by the cook, so they are required, don't skip them.

[adrenaline0210]

hey nfsfan thank god I heard through the rumor mill that you were over here and no longer at ppchaven. everythings working great with 1.09 verizon as far as I can tell.

[retesh101]

Hi, can anybody help
I am trying to upgrade this ROM and when it restarts the device and shows three color line at that time it's breaking the connection with my pc (WN vista) and them it show me error because it's not getting conneted again.

Hey, just wanted to say I am sorry to see you leave PPCHaven. I wish you guys could have worked things out more peacefully. I will miss seeing your work over there. Best of luck.

Try manually putting the phone into bootloader by holding the power, and the camera buttons while pressing the reset with the stylus. After it's in the tri-color screen, flash the ROM. This helps me when the phone is being stubborn.

Before all that make sure you are unlocked with ImCoKeMaN's Vogue unlocker found here : http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20370

I've tried unlocking by connecting the phone (activesync shows connected) and running the unlocker EXE on the PC ... the command screen comes up for a moment but doesn't show anything (tho the instructions say it will), then it closes. THe EXE isn't supposed to be run ON the phone, correct? (The instructions say it's not.) I feel like I'm missing something, but I'm following the instructions as best I can tell.

Should I put it into bootloader mode and see if I can flash the ROM then?

[jbos6]

Sooooo ... I think I might've bricked the damn thing. I unlocked the phone (I figured out what I was doing wrong there) and then used NFSFAN's custom ROM ... and now it's stuck on the VerizonWireless screen. I can hard reset it, but it stay on that screen. Umm .... help???

[jbos6]

Well, I flashed to the Verizon 3.14 ROM and the phone came back. I think one heart-attack is enough for one day, I'll be sticking with this one for the moment. until I get bored.

This happened because you hadn't updated the radio. You would have needed to flash to the bell rom first to get the radio (without letting customizations run), then flash to this one.

Now that you have the vzw rom on there you'll have a little more trouble getting GPS to work without vznavigator, but you can read about that elsewhere.

[hemirunner426]

hey NFSFAN, i have a custom Alltel arcsoft 3.0.26.12c OEM that i have tweaked and got rid of the extra useless picture stuff that is included. If you like, i can post that on here to use in your Alltel ROM. I have included it in many of my builds and works fine.

[harley!]

NFSFAN - this follows my inquiries over at haven. I'm on VZW 1.09.

I'm still have some battery drain issues with a rare occurrence where the phone shuts itself down after going into sleep mode. Only way to start up again is by removing the battery. Didn't see this on any prior ROM versions.

Also, the phone won't hard reset. When I try, it shuts itself down.

Any ideas? (before I undertake to return the unit . . .)

Thanks.

[masterslacker]

Hey NFSFAN and his fans,

I'm curious about the status of a few features in the ROM, and I can't seem to find information in the thread on these. So if anybody knows, I'd really appreciate any info you can give.

1. Regarding Opera 9.5 and the Bell 1.25 ROM, is there a build that supports both Flash and the T9 keyboards? I heard NFSFAN made a special build of 2745 that is flash-capable, but I'm not sure where to find it or if it supports the keyboards.

2. Regarding the white diamond dialers, which dialer is currently in the Bell 1.25 ROM: Is it the dialer with push buttons (red ignore and green answer), or is it the dialer with the slide to answer/ignore feature?

Thanks a bunch!

Mike.

I think its more of a problem with the computer you are using to flash with. The command prompt should stay open and give you instructions during the process. Do you have another computer to try it on? What are you running? XP or Vista?

[adrenaline0210]

nfsfan can you provide me with some details on how to get mms to send. Still getting the originator address not found error.

I went through online and tried to find the post with the settings but all of your posts have been deleted from ppchaven.

vzw 1.09

Not able to send mms

reproducable: yes even after flash

Try's: checked through settings in reg, however not sure what to chose or add. tried the vzw carrier settings.cab which if im not mistaken i dont actually need to run anymore anyways.

I have 1.09 and haven't experienced MMS problems. Anyway, try this link and look toward the middle of the first post. The settings you'll need should be there. Sorry, I looked and can't find them after they were deleted at the Haven, even though I thought I saved them somewhere. Good luck!

You'll need a registry editor. Use the following program and you can access and edit the registry from your desktop:

anybody here have luck getting viigo to work on this rom?

a work around perhaps?

[spuzzum]

I am looking for an audiopara file for the NFSFAN bell 1.25 rom. The volume is not very loud and need to bump it up a bit so if anyone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated. It might have been loud before but i have added some programs and changed the registry a bit so it might have been changed since then.I have ck'd a few but they have no effect on the volume or they just cut the volume out altogether.THX.

I had the same problem and all i had to do was go into the MMS options and switch the send MMS from Verizon Wireless to Internet and it worked for me.

ican't send with bell either,even with hard reset, arcsoft or not. when i go to insert it closes the mms.
tried settings,previous rom worked. ?

I've been using VZW 1.09 since it was released, and i haven't had any problems sending or receiving MMS. I didn't change any of the MMS settings after flashing.

[NFSFAN]

Don't expect to flash to bell rom and have working mms. Bell doesn't support MMS on this phone. The only ROM that has MMS is the Verizon ROM, I don't understand why you would flash to a bell customized ROM when you are running a Verizon provider :S

[NFSFAN]

New ROMs are up!!

EDIT: If anyone is interested in beta testing an Alltel ROM, if you are on the Alltel provider, let me know.

[tharris297]

Thanks a lot NFSFAN for keeping up the work on the ROM.

[aralos1999]

Thank you NFSFAN for the new Bell 1.26 ROM.

After updating to the new ROM, the weather update no longer working! Could you please have a look?

[NFSFAN]

Yeah, same issue here. The server is down. As many of you may or may not know, I use the N2A weather server for weather updates, since it allows for custom weather cities. I suggest to wait a few hours or maybe a day, and it should work. It worked yesterday for me, using 1.26 so it isn't the ROM.

All you have to do is check when this website starts working again: http://weather.not2advanced.com

[jeiyuu]

Updating to Sprint 1.07! Thanks NFSFAN, keep up the great work!

THANKS for letting us know that the weather server is down. I almost flashed back to 1.09 because I thought it might be the ROM. I should have known better!! :cool:

[bobzero]

thanks for 1.26.


Does anyone have a CAB for the original SIP from the stock bell 3.09 rom? I need it badly.

[NFSFAN]

THANKS for letting us know that the weather server is down. I almost flashed back to 1.09 because I thought it might be the ROM. I should have known better!! :cool:

The weather should be working now!!!

[MrFouZ]

As I told you (nfsfan) in a private message. I found a bug with the Bell version 1.25. I don't know if the version 1.26 fix it but, the phone freeze when you open a VPN connection and you power off the screen. When you try to reopen the screen, nothing happen.

Repro step is easy:
- Open a vpn connection
- Don't close it
- Close your screen (power button)
- Try to reopen the screen again... nothing happen. The phone green light still flashing but the screen stay black.

The phone haven froze for days now because I didn't use the vpn feature. I tried my repro step as I wrote this message and voila, it froze again. Anyone can test it on their phone?

Hey guys im unable to flash it on my sprint 6900, im using the sprint rom but it keeps hanging at 35% and i have to reset the phone then flash with an older rom to unbrick it. any ideas?

Just a thought... Have you unlocked the phone?

[NFSFAN]

As I told you (nfsfan) in a private message. I found a bug with the Bell version 1.25. I don't know if the version 1.26 fix it but, the phone freeze when you open a VPN connection and you power off the screen. When you try to reopen the screen, nothing happen.

Repro step is easy:
- Open a vpn connection
- Don't close it
- Close your screen (power button)
- Try to reopen the screen again... nothing happen. The phone green light still flashing but the screen stay black.

Yes, you pointed this out to me before and I don't know how to fix it, as I don't use VPN. Have you tried this on the stock rom? Try flashing 1.26 it may fix it. Did you have this problem in 1.24 or previous ROMs?

[MrFouZ]

I'm a new NFSFAN user. So, version 1.25 is the first version I installed. I will try to install the 1.26 version today. On the Bell stock version, everything is working as expected.

Is there a way to log what is going on on the phone while he's IDLE? If he detect the push on the power on button?

[jeffputts]

Yes phone has been unlocked w/ imacoke 2.31 and has been flashed with several other roms no problem

[philf]

Hi,thanks for this rom it's awesome, I installed 1.25 yesterday, and 1.26 this morning, finally figured out how to get my email running and where the internet tab was....only thing I found and don't know how to go back to what it was... when I press the window logo (for settings etc) it used to have a very neat display, it's gone back to the stock display, bigger, no lines between the options...not sure how to describe this better...

cheers
thanks for the help

New ROMs are up!!

EDIT: If anyone is interested in beta testing an Alltel ROM, if you are on the Alltel provider, let me know.

I am interested in testing your Alltel ROM. As i mentioned before in a previous post, i have an Arcsoft MMS OEM that you could use in your ROM that has been tweaked. If you need it let me know.

[CricketManX]

i just bought one of these phones on ebay and i've been shopping around for the best rom. my friend told me to go to ppchaven to get your rom and that it was the best he ever used but when i went there i couldnt find you so the admin, harvey something, told me that you were here and that you weren't welcome there anymore? oh well because i found you here.

will any of your roms work for cricket?

[JT.]

First off thanks for the Rom. Been using it for a month or 2 and I really like it. I have one problem and search gave me nothing.

Since I installed the rom I can not dial internationally. I have international calling on my plan and it worked before. It just gets to the dialing portion then after a min or 2 it hangs up.

I'm using sprint.

[MrFouZ]

I also have issue with latest Garmin XT on Sprint 1.06/1.07 ROMs. It would load after rebooting but after opening/using PIE once, Garmin won't load or freeze. So my solution is not to use PIE which I don't like anyway.

This is after several trials with pagepool size, installing/uninstalling programs (spb plus, spb weather, spb time, tomtom 6.x, Opera, Octrotalk, TCPMP, Phoneweaver, S2U2, Pandora, Skyfire, etc.), Garmin GPS port setting, disabling A-GPS, etc.....

I'll update if PIE is not causing this issue but Garmin has be running on/off for several time for 2 days now without any hangs.

(update)
Sorry, I spoke too soon, I'm still facing issue with Garmin. Garmin will only run after a reboot. Other than that the ROM is great. Thanks NFSFAN.

Anyone using Garmin on this ROM? I got it freezing while I am running Garmin.

Does anyone has a strange battery behaivor for example when I use the evdo like the opera or IE the battery goes down like 25 or 30% fast and then I turn off and then on (not softreset) and goes to its normal state like - 5%.
Or its just me.
Sorry for my bad english.

I am having the same problem. Garmin won't run after running either PIE or Contacts. If I open Contacts while Garmin is running, phone locks up tight as soon as I go back to Garmin and needs a soft reboot to do anything.

Did not happen on Verizon 1.04, I skipped 1.05-1.08 so don't know if it started earlier then 1.09.

Have you tried updating Garmin to the latest version and build?

[NFSFAN]

Mine has been doing that as well.

Yea that is completely normal... When using an intensive program there is more pressure on the battery. The battery % is calculated based on mAh consumption, so normally say the phone uses around 160 mAh, with Opera it would jump to say 400 mAh, and the voltage on the battery takes a slight toll. The battery % would then indicate lower... The battery % is calculated based on voltage; the lower the voltage the battery provides, the less % is being displayed. When the load on the battery suddenly increases, the voltage slightly decreases, and it could lead to the assumption that your battery is running out faster than expected. I hope that explains the issue well enough. :)

[NFSFAN]

I found the one in the "long-end-key"... is there an executable somewhere that I can make a shortcut for so that I can list it in the launcher tab?

In the next build I will add the devicelock executable in. It is a separate exe, I guess somehow I removed it and didn't realize this.

[NFSFAN]

here is the OEM for Alltel MMS.

OK, thanks I'll look into this. Is this the OEM which you used to get the MMS running on your Vogue? Does it have all the wap profile configs and such. Also I assume alltel requires MDN number in the registry like Verizon? Thanks

[jeffputts]

Jesse, i flashed with the Bell rom so im at 3.42.50 for the radio, Ive been flashing every other rom under the sun with no problem, but everytime I try this one, it freezes at 35%

Yes, am using the latest Garmin build. Same one that worked perfectly on your Verizon 1.04 ROM.

Alan

[Old faithful]

NFSFAN, do you have a PPC friendly link for download? When I try to download using my Touch, it comes up as text and I can't save the file. I've tried PIE plugins and checked that other RARs can be saved as files. My Touch is my only available broadband device (yes, there are still people forced to use dial-up).

Hope this is not to much of a noob question to be posted here...

[harley!]

NSFAN im new so please bear with me:
Is this stable?
does gps work on verizon?
do i have to use the stylus for input?
whats the battery life?

After a number of months using numerous NFSFAN ROMs, I can say they are extremely stable; I've never experienced so much as a freeze.

GPS will work with VZW if you have unlocked first (read first post in this thread; see also the excellent tutorials at ppchaven.com). Do not flash unless you've unlocked first; you might have an expensive paperweight as a result. Read, read, read.

Stylus is not necessary depending on the keyboard used for input.

I've heard some battery life issues, but generally nothing widespread.

Good luck!

I think these are regedits. I suspect there's an easier way, but I think you can add these bookmarks by editing the registry to add them. I'm just not sure how. Perhaps search for YouTube in the registry and see where it shows up and then create new registry settings for your preferred bookmark in the same locations, or simply replace the youtube entries with your preferred entry. I don't think Advanced Config can solve ur issue.

Just some thoughts. . .

Not really as I don't know what is causing it. There could be a ton of variables, maybe it is the OS build.

At least I have the latest Garmin xt 50020w. For now I changed the ROM pagepool to 24Mb, reflash, hard-reset, and not using Spb Pocket Plus and seems to be ok starting/exiting Garmin for about 10-15 times in last 18hrs.

The way I test is to have iContact(initially Contact), Calender, Octrotalk, Opera, PIE, poutlook, tcmd, activesync, Vistahide batt, Spb time, Spb weather, Phoneweaver, S2U2 and Google Map running in the background when starting the Garmin. By this time the phone is a bit sluggish as expected due to low program memory but Garmin starts without lockup or exiting abnormally. I'll add Skyfire later on. Thanks.

Have you tried updating Garmin to the latest version and build?

[youppi]

NFSFAN, thank you so much for all the time you put in making this great rom. I flashed the Telus Rom 1.3 a few days ago and it's amazing. I'm a total noob to all this, but am learning a lot here. I'm reading as much as I can here before I start asking questions. I hope one day I can be helpful to others who are starting out here. You have made owning my Touch a heck of a lot of fun. Thanks again, I really appreciate it.

[dubbwilliams]

Hey NFSFAN, nice work on the ROM, upgraded 1.04 to 1.07 on Sprint. Question for you.

Now on start up for 1.07 it automatically starts up Instant Messaging. When I go to menu or whatever on the bottom right, then settings, and then finally global settings. I uncheck "Start Automatically on PowerOn", hit "Back" on the bottom left (it asks if I want to save and I select Yes). Upon reset however the application still loads, by going to global settings, the check box for that setting is now back.

In the process of writing the question I found the answer. Going to Settings -> All Settings -> System -> Remove Programs allowed me to remove OZ Instant Messaging. Then in File Explorer I went to Windows -> Start Menu -> Programs and removed Instant Messaging.lnk

Still experiencing an outgoing call volume bug, I'll try to test it later. Seems to be only outgoing calls, incoming calls are full volume. A fix for the bug is to hit down on volume slider and then back up on volume slider, this usually readjusts it to the incoming call volume I usually have. Nothing major.

Minor skinning bug, but I'm pretty sure it might be the fault of the skinner. I switched to a blue skin when on 1.04. It changed the background on everything, however when I did a long press on the messaging section or the mail section, the black background would appear, kind of annoying if you are slow to swipe your message up or down. I located the image and replaced it with the background of the skin I installed and seemed to fix the problem. The file was hh_fw_focus_background.png, not sure if it is something to do with M2DC or just an image that was left out by the skinner. Anyways, there's a work around if anyone asks the same question. (Edit: that image file can be found in the root of the \Windows\ folder, forgot to mention that)

I really want to switch to a blue skin and then blue bars using the RC mod. Only problem I run into is the colors used in the start menu drop down and task list is bright green. I found the registry settings that need to be changed, however I do not know how to predict what color will come from what value, so far I have tried Hexadecimal, but I am not able to get the results I am looking for (blue highlight color instead of green). Do you know how I can better predict what color will come of a certain value, be it Binary/Decimal/Hexadecimal?

Your ROM has made owning my phone so much better, thanks for all your hard work.

[thetechguru]

It isn't exactly such a good idea to run so many programs at the same time. lol no wonder garmin locked up before.

He specifically said this was a test after increasing the page pool. Garmin locks up in your VZW 1.09 ROM any time PIE or Contacts have been run even if all other applications have been shut down prior to starting GarminXT.

PIE also makes the phone extremely sluggish. There is, without a doubt, something wrong in this ROM that was not a problem in previous versions.

Alan

[blackmeto]

NOOB ALERT
is this rom a memory hog?
because i see that all of these apps will be installed directly to the device, correct?
just dont wanna slow my phone down before i see what it can do

[fusion600]

Definately NOT a memory hog, in fact it is the wexact opposite. Installing this ROm will in fact speed up your phone. NFSFAN has spent a considerable time over the past year optimizing and strealining not only his rom, but windows as a whole.

Your concerns are not valid concerns with this ROM, guaranteed, money back and everything :p

If you need to change the pagepool, run the program, and then browse for the .nbh ROM file. When you open the ROM, it will show you the current page pool, as 16. The best is to set it to 24 as some people pointed out here. The impact of this is that you will loose 8mb of storage space on the phone's memory.

Yeah, but I already paid for Garmin, and my standalone GPS is also Garmin, so I like the consistency. Also, worked perfectly on stock ROM and your earlier roms, so something else must be taking up pagepool that wasn't before.

btw, just sent you a small donation. Thanks for all your hard work on the ROMS.

OK, thanks I'll look into this. Is this the OEM which you used to get the MMS running on your Vogue? Does it have all the wap profile configs and such. Also I assume alltel requires MDN number in the registry like Verizon? Thanks

Thats correct. There is a .provxml file w/ the alltel settings and also sets a *.lnk in the startup folder for SetMMSMDN.exe which does exactly that. Tested it on quite a few kitchens i used, worked fine for me. Let me know if you need help with your Alltel ROM, i'd be happy to help you out with what i can.

[atoz350]

NOOB ALERT
is this rom a memory hog?
because i see that all of these apps will be installed directly to the device, correct?
just dont wanna slow my phone down before i see what it can do

My vogue runs much faster with this ROM.

[atoz350]

Hey NFSFAN, nice work on the ROM, upgraded 1.04 to 1.07 on Sprint. Question for you.

Now on start up for 1.07 it automatically starts up Instant Messaging. When I go to menu or whatever on the bottom right, then settings, and then finally global settings. I uncheck "Start Automatically on PowerOn", hit "Back" on the bottom left (it asks if I want to save and I select Yes). Upon reset however the application still loads, by going to global settings, the check box for that setting is now back.

In the process of writing the question I found the answer. Going to Settings -> All Settings -> System -> Remove Programs allowed me to remove OZ Instant Messaging. Then in File Explorer I went to Windows -> Start Menu -> Programs and removed Instant Messaging.lnk

Still experiencing an outgoing call volume bug, I'll try to test it later. Seems to be only outgoing calls, incoming calls are full volume. A fix for the bug is to hit down on volume slider and then back up on volume slider, this usually readjusts it to the incoming call volume I usually have. Nothing major.

Minor skinning bug, but I'm pretty sure it might be the fault of the skinner. I switched to a blue skin when on 1.04. It changed the background on everything, however when I did a long press on the messaging section or the mail section, the black background would appear, kind of annoying if you are slow to swipe your message up or down. I located the image and replaced it with the background of the skin I installed and seemed to fix the problem. The file was hh_fw_focus_background.png, not sure if it is something to do with M2DC or just an image that was left out by the skinner. Anyways, there's a work around if anyone asks the same question. (Edit: that image file can be found in the root of the \Windows\ folder, forgot to mention that)

I really want to switch to a blue skin and then blue bars using the RC mod. Only problem I run into is the colors used in the start menu drop down and task list is bright green. I found the registry settings that need to be changed, however I do not know how to predict what color will come from what value, so far I have tried Hexadecimal, but I am not able to get the results I am looking for (blue highlight color instead of green). Do you know how I can better predict what color will come of a certain value, be it Binary/Decimal/Hexadecimal?

Your ROM has made owning my phone so much better, thanks for all your hard work.

Its because he is using the Jade enlarged start menu and task manager. I corrected this by installing the Opal enlarged start menu and task manager, which is blue with a grey highlight. I'm also using a blue theme.

[hooover]

Prop's on the new release I been playing with it here and there..I finally got rid of my G'reloc issue and have been building myself I use your ROM for when I screw everything all up to have something stable for a hour...LOL!!! Any who check your PM and hit me back if you can...

[350insp]

Yeh, I think this is the same one that I used which I got from OMJ's ROM. 24MB is about right for me and i think if i increase further it may slow down the system.

I downloaded this but havent had a chance to use it yet. So dont use it without checking with some experienced people first!! But I think it will work to change the pagepool before a flash.
Maybe NFS can offer some insight as to exactly how it works?? or wether to use it at all.

[350insp]

Thanks NFS. I don't normally run all the programs at once but I'm trying to stress the system to see what/which program is taking up memory or causing issue with Garmin. So far 24MB PP setting give me good stability and I also did not install Spb Pocket Plus & S2U2 for now.


It isn't exactly such a good idea to run so many programs at the same time. lol no wonder garmin locked up before.

NFS - a few problems I've noticed with the ROM.

1. Only the full qwerty keyboards work with IE. Most of the other keyboards/pads don't work in any of the forms. It's not bringing up the predictive text to fill in the forms and/or it's not registering any letters.

Also I don't think clicking on a form field brings up the keyboard like it should either.

2. I have Garmin XT and I've noticed that if the problem suddenly seems to hang, turning the screen off and back on again releases the hang.

3. When plugging the device in to USB while the screen is off, the screen does not turn on to enable the connection.

4. On other M2d builds, the favorites show up on the Internet tab. They do not on yours.

[harley!]

so my phone as modem WILL work?

Yep. See first post for a screenshot of the USB to PC connection options.

I've had no problems with internet sharing, but I undertand that once you cross a certain threshhold of data usage (which is pretty high but I'm not sure how high; you can search elsewhere for this info), VZW may flag you. Be reasonable and you'll be fine.

1 is due to a problem in ie6, 2 can be fixed by
changing the pagepool to 24, 3 the phone has to be on when you plug in the usb, 4 make sure you use th highernopera builds

Also to all the Alltel users who are waiting for a ROM, I may be able to get something out this weekend, hopefully a beta. All depends on the time I have.

Hey Thanks man! and thanks for the instructions on the PagePool changer. I upped Conflippers ROM from 12 to 24 today and I seem to be seeing a big increase in speed. Everything just seems ''snappier'' Con posts his ROMs in an .exe. I didnt realize I had to extract it to change it. Thats why it would'nt ever work for me before.
Thanks again!

Has anyone got any kind of Google Calendar Sync application to work properly on this ROM?

I've tried OggSync and ActiveGcSync but neither one works. OggSync gives a "Google Timeout" error and ActiveGcSync gives some kind of IndexOutOfRange error. I've attempted to get help from the developers of these applications but they are no help.

I have a friend who is running this same ROM (NFSFAN 1.25 Bell) and he has the exact same problems with any Sync application he has tried.

If you have ANY ideas, please let me know!

Not sure if it would work for you, if you aren't already using an exchange server for your email/contacts/calendar, you can use nuevasync for syncing your contacts and calendar to google...

I currently get errors for my imap connections to google mail... i wonder if anyone else has that working? It might just be VZW blocking imap.....

[NFSFAN]

A couple of users pointed out before that the compact qwerty and phone keypad wasn't working on Opera or IE, the reason for this is due to an incompatibility issue with the T9 Dictionary files. HTC has yet to resolve this, and most of the shipped phones that come with Opera 9.5 have the T9 removed.

[NFSFAN]

Here is a heavily modified Opera build, that I modified for performance and faster speed.

Opera Build: 9.5 Build 15316 (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V3L1OGI0)

Changes over stock:
*Uninstallable
*Full Exit
*Auto RAM Cache
*Max Tabs set to 10
*Download Complete Notification
*Smooth Scrolling
*Turbo Mode
*Special Effects Enabled
*Scroll Bar Colors Enabled
*Diamond Profile
*16 MB Disk Cache
*Tweaked Adaptive Zooming
*Max Server and Total Connections Tweaked
*Removed HTC splash, substituted for original Opera splash
*Defaulted skin colors to black
*Home page set to google

Enjoy

[NFSFAN]

Just a heads up... I might be able to make an Alltel release tomorrow.

[PCSPhone]

As I told you (nfsfan) in a private message. I found a bug with the Bell version 1.25. I don't know if the version 1.26 fix it but, the phone freeze when you open a VPN connection and you power off the screen. When you try to reopen the screen, nothing happen.

Repro step is easy:
- Open a vpn connection
- Don't close it
- Close your screen (power button)
- Try to reopen the screen again... nothing happen. The phone green light still flashing but the screen stay black.

The phone haven froze for days now because I didn't use the vpn feature. I tried my repro step as I wrote this message and voila, it froze again. Anyone can test it on their phone?


Use the Advanced Config tools and disable the Power Management for PPTP and L2TP. That solved the freezing for me.

[NFSFAN]

Excellent suggestion... thanks a lot for this. I will be sure to fix this in the next ROM release. Thanks again :D

[johnficca]

Can I use one of the roms with us cellular and if so witch one. I have the htc touch with us cellular...just wondering if its possible.

No, they won't work properly with your carrier. If you can get more people who have US Cellular and this phone, I will consider making a ROM for it.

Great ROM.

I do have 2 small questions:

With the original HTC home screen before the flash there was a shortcut for rotating the screen when i clicked on programs. do you know how to get similar feature on this ROM? or do you know how to rotate the screen without going into settings every time i want to use it.

Also one more thing i noticed. when you tap inside of a text field, my keyboard doesn't pop up automatically. I checked in advanced config and enabled that option but it still doesn't work. is that by design?

thanks

You can assign the Camera press & hold button to rotate the screen. However be warned that Manila2D doesn't support this, so you can only use this option anywhere else but in Manila2D. Also the Compact QWERTY and the Phone Keypad are broken in landscape, since HTC removed the landscape support from these keyboards, in both the jade and elfin packages of the IME text input. The text field sometimes pops up depending on the application. The OS build is 20931, with a 20940 core, and not a 19208 build. Many things have changed, and Microsoft could have removed and added a few things here and there.

[NFSFAN]

An Alltel Beta will be released today in about an hour or so. I will need users to test the MMS. The ROM is the exact same as the other releases (only changes are those that are seen below) except its carrier customized. It will be using a 24 MB pagepool. The tethering and GPS should also work just fine.

Changes over my current released ROMs:

Changed PagePool to 24 MB
Fixed VPN Issues
Renamed External GPS to GPS Settings
Removed Error Reporting Completely

Thanks for the tip on screen rotation. just what i needed. I noticed before that manila2d doesn't work. I actually only want to use it for browsing or typing long emails. with the shortcut key assigned it works great.

did the aGPS fix from 1 thru 15 as stated from NFSMAN

but I can't get a damn lock.. been sitting here for over 30mins
and have soft reset the sucker over and over....

Using either the GoogleMap or GPS Viewer that was included in the ROM


PROBLEM: RESOLVED


Navigate to Start -> Settings, and click on Phone in the Personal tab. Click on the Services tab at the bottom. Highlight Location Setting and click Get Settings. Ensure that LOCATION ON is selected.


Apparently the VX6900 was set to 911 for whatever reason...

I checked the database file, its there, and it's not set to Read Only or system file. Maybe this only works on the Diamond / Touch Pro only?

If so, how do I go about adding city that isn't including in this ROM?

Any suggestions from the Chief?

[vilord]

EV to 1x change during phone call is normal and happens to all EVDO phones

Agreed, US carriers haven't turned on voice-over-evdo (VoIP) yet. So all voice calls (and for most, if not all carriers, mms and sms also) runs over the older 1X/circuit switched network.

As for yours bars going from many to few on the changeover, it could have multiple reasons...
Your carrier may have the EVDO antennae on different towers or in a different place on the tower.
You might be running over a different frequency for EVDO than for 1X in your area, and different frequencies traverse terrain and buildings and steel differently.

EDIT: Actually now that I think about it... for MMS, the initial notification message is in 1X, then the data portion (picture, video, sound, etc) is downloaded through EV if the network is available.

Do you have SDConfig.txt file on your SDCard, with the name of the registry cab in? And is the SDConfig.txt properly setup?

I have a lot of other registry edits in the same CAB which are taking effect, so I'm certain it isn't in the setup. I'll look and see if there could be other registries that I am missing which are causing the change.
