[ROM] NRGZ28's 'Rose' ROM Ver 1.3 [Nov 11th]

[kngri]

So what's next guys.. A Vanilla, super duper fast ROM.. or... continue to make this one better ?

Continue to make this one better with maybe some classic games like mspacman, pacman and maybe frogger. :)

...lost my sms and mms messages after loading rom SEARCHING for answer. hehe.

thank you for you hard work the rom looks awesome.

[lovebeta]

This is a great rom with all cutting edge apps. However when I use Kavana's rom, the memory total was around 48MB, while yours stood 43.56MB. I was wondering if this matters or not?

Also I couldn't find a way to make the OMAP setting permanent. It currently resets whenever the backlight is off. On Kavana's rom, I think the behavior was the CPU will be overclocked whenever the screen is on...

[jhunkab]

- Issue with '0' (zero) observed in number only fields (e.g. BT pass code), does not let enter '0'.
- Not able to connect via BT to sync
- Observed flicker on windows\startup folder
- Battery life is BAD -- this may force me to abondon this. I have new high capacity battery, that easily last 2 days for me, but this ROM burned it in 18 hrs. I am guessing weather app is to blame (i had disabled auto-update)
- I will try with disabling weather app altogether, if that does not improve battery, then I will revert to earlier Kavana ROM
- Esmertec Jbed works great with gmail (generic) in this ROM, it had issues in Kavana's version, any one knows how to get this version so that I can install it on Kavana 6.1 ROM?

-- for now I am inclined towards going back to Kavana/Ricky Vanilla.

[tomiglio]

Do you have any sites that provide mobile videos so I can test the media player ?

The fact that you cant install certain apps is certainly not a "bug". Try loading the Rogers WM6 ROM, they dont let you install ANYTHING! LOL BUt I will look into it... Can you provide me with an example ?

This ROM is mainly built for the TMobile Dash (the american version). To get it to work with the UK version, you have to download a new keyboard map file. Again, this is not a "bug".

Windows Live isn't showed on the screen by default. I don't care for Windows Live :) Use the Chome Configurator app to enable the panel.

I cant get the Camera Album to replicate that behavior... can you explain a little more ? Thanks.


Windows media player wont play any videos from the phone,not even the ones that i have filmed with the phone's camera.That's not a big issue for me as i can always use any other video players like core player or tcpmp.
The keyboard issue i got it fixed thanks to stylez,and the camera album got solved after deleting all the picture that came bundled with the rom.
windows live wont show on the screen even if i enable it with chme configurator.

any way this is a great rom.keep up the good work.:)

[tarascaassoc]

I noticed a random keyboard freeze when I tried to activate the keyboard lock by holding the * key for a few seconds this morning. The phone appeared to still be working, just the keyboard and navigation buttons didn't seem to work and I was able to shut down the phone by holding the power button for a bit. I restarted and have not seen it occur again yet.

The navigation keys seem to be very sensitive in java apps. Specifically I was using Gizmo5. It acts like there is a fast repeat rate with no pause before repeat so menus will repeatedly pop up again unless I'm very light and fast with the button presses. It's mostly an annoyance. It didn't happen with other ROM's.

The setting to encrypt everything put on the microSD card at Settings/Security/Encryption does not work. It errors with "The settings could not be saved."

I'm going to be going back to another ROM for the time being but I'm impressed at the progress made on this one. I will try again if I see a new version released, though. I also look forward to a possible true vanilla ROM based on this one.

Keep up the great work.

[kash2k7]

y there is no syncing with blue tooth available.

[torrentsite]

what do you mean by "working"? If the keymap is wrong you will simply need to change it, the same way the Dash people needed to change Ricky's and Kavana's

I tried but it didn't work....when I install Ricky's rom it's OK

[rickwyatt]

put all files in windows folder

this fixes

all video

[rickwyatt]

[tomiglio]

thanks mate,windows media player issue is fixed now.

[NRGZ28]

The media player issue is fixed in version 1.3 which is coming out tonight or tomorrow at the latest. It was a problem with trying to blend in the Streaming Media player. As you can see from Ricky's files, all he does is replace all the video decoder DLLs. So just have a little bit of patience and we'll get through this together and have a perfect ROM at the end.

p.s. My phone's been on "standby" since Friday morning and now (sunday morning) I'm only at 79% battery...

[stylez]

Yes makes sense it's been on stanby all the time good job you got a BJII as your main device.....

[NRGZ28]

Yes makes sense it's been on stanby all the time good job you got a BJII as your main device.....

Actually the G1 is my main device now. :)

[stylez]

Actually the G1 is my main device now. :)

Ok my point was that your point was totally irrelevant to anyone that actually uses there Dash as there main device... A general usage would be more useful..
How many phones do you need? Do you have 3 ears? :p JK

Sorry mate,I didnt mean to offend you in any way. I only poined out an issue,and I pointed it out on the thread of your Rom,the place where you would normally get a response from the author of the Rom,right?
I was asking you for a solution,not rickywat. Just happened that rickywat came with the solution that fixed the issue. But,like i mentioned before, I was asking the author of the Rom,thus you,for a resolution.
Once again I want to say that this is a great Rom, and you did a great job so far fixing the issues.
In the end it's really not so important who get the issues fixed,but the thing that matters the most is the fact that those issues get fixed, for the benefit of the whole xda comunity,right?

[jeanpiere]

hey NRGZ28 wat will be new in v 1.3, just c urious as to what bug fixes will be sorted out and wat goodies may be included. Oh Omapclock permanence after reset etc needed!!! tnx looking fwd to ur good work!!

[stylez]

I'm sorry but I realy want to use you're rom I can live without bluetooth sync but not without a working keyboard. I'm a newbee maybe you write down the steps I have to take so the keyboard is uk working.....

If u need UK keymap go back about 4 pages and follow steps i put install eT9 uk in sig reboot then copy the .txt pad i posted in the eT9 folder on phone that sorts it :)

[MrPhoni]

From my point of view, it's definetly the best ROM I ever saw and the first one which works perfectly. For me version 1.2 is awesome - with a battery lifetime I never had before with other ROMs.

Last but not least, it's the first ROM where I do not have any trouble with my german keyboard layout - from the beginning. Choosing XT9 German was all I had to do.

Setting up my device after flashing is now a 3 minutes task and not something for a Saturday afternoon for fixing, like it was before.

Thanks again, NRG - you're my star.

[jdoggraz]

NRG is amazing... :)

[torrentsite]

Keyboard is working!!

Thanks everybody, NRG - you're my star

Thanks again, NRG - you're my star.

I agree 100%
Really looking forward to future additions! Thanks again for your hard work, and remember people bitch no matter how good something is! they are jealous!

[iamanalog]

You know how i feel about your work nrg, before this rom i had almost all of your releases on my phone. Now i look forword to seeing this rom become amazing.

Keep up the great work man.

[gospeed.racer]

NRG, can I make a few suggestions? I think with your new release there needs to be a "bug report" thread, where the people that have true issues can post them. Users NEED to understand that there is a big difference between a "bug" and a "feature request". The keymap post for example, that is not a bug- the user should have simply asked how to make it work, instead he complained that it doesnt "work". It would be great if you had the power to delete the posts in your own thread (the ones out of line, or not following the topic)to keep everything straight- can you be issued moderator powers for a thread like this? That may keep it easier to follow. Also, this thread (or these threads if the bug report one makes it) needs to be stickied.

Your doing great work, please dont give up on us users that truly respect your work and will continue to use it. At the same time, please try to be understanding that Ricky and others are trying to help. I know you are not ready to release your kitchen, and I hope Ricky and his followers can respect that. Keep up the great work man!

[Billyvnilly]

yea i think there needs to be a sep "relevant" bugs thread, and leave this one to "bitching"

Its strong work NRG.

I've seen battery life, the 0 problem, and the symbol key issues ive reported fixed, so I'm thrilled with your work!

[tuantuti]

thanks NGR for the new ROM. it sounds like a good ROM from other posts. i would love to try flashing it but i can't seem to work with Rapidshare.

anyone have the mirror link that is not rapidshare??? if do pls share with me. thanks a lot. i really want to try this ROM.

[NRGZ28]

my rapidshare account just expired tonight so thats probably why...

[tuantuti]

my rapidshare account just expired tonight so thats probably why...

no, its just my ip address problem. do u have any other mirrors?? thanks NGR

[sphinx780]

Hey NRG,

Hope you get back up to snuff health-wise soon. Thanks again for the hard work on this. I feel like most here love your work and sincerely appreciate it.

[tommytutone]

Has anyone found a resolution to the incompatability between WM6.1 and "Plays for Sure" subscription services like Rhapsody/Napster? I really hope this Rose ROM is the answer.

When I was running 6.0 I could sync with Rhapsody just fine, but since moving to Kavana it's never worked. My phone appears to sync but when I try to play music I get an error that "This is not a valid Windows CE application" and my phone basically crashes. I have to pull the battery and reboot.

I'm not a "power user" per se. I'll use Kavana, Ricky's, or Rose, whichever one will let me play subscription based music. I just sold my MP3 player to get this phone, and now my 8GB microsdhc is worthless. (I know I can get music other ways, but I like to pay for the convenience.)

[tuantuti]

this thread should be sticky. i'm surprise why it hasnt been sticky yet???

[jdoggraz]

Oh I know it should be fore sure, its all right if its not stickied because it will always remain up top.

[NRGZ28]

It was stickied before but I asked the mods to unsticky it. I figured if I cant find my own thread in the forum anymore, everybody else will have a hard time also. :)

[NRGZ28]

Oh and thanks to your donations so far, I was able to renew my account at RapidShare for free :) :p

I actually removed the DRM components from my ROM, because I figured.. hey.. who would listen to DRM MP3s on their phone ?! Guess I was wrong. They do take up a little bit of space, so if I have space left to put them in for version 1.3 I will, but I can't promise anything :)

[outragis]

again, nice work! :)

[kngri]

1st, thank you for your work.

My question is,

Can you make a bare to the bone - extra clean "Rose 1.2" rom, with no extras only keeping the black look that it has now.

things to keep in the rom (sample)

Office Mobile
Connection Setup
PHM RegEdit
USB Storage
Java
Calculator
Adobe reader
CeleTask

... just the basic needs.

Once again we love your work, Is this possible or do i need to pay for you to do this?

-Thank You.

[NRGZ28]

This will be done for sure. I just thought I'd iron out all the bugs out of this ROM first and then, I will release a plain vanilla version. To be honest, I will probably use the plain vanilla version on my device as well, as soon as I get it done.... I don't like a whole lot of "bells and whistles" either. Heh Making a vanilla ROM is easy (IMO) and I would never ask for money for that... :o

Oh sweet, I am exciting for the vanilla rom to come out... :)

[kngri]

how about a couple of classic games to use when we are bored at the office, LOL. Games like MsPacman, Pacman and Frogger...

:):):)

[NRGZ28]

thats stuff you can easily install yourself with a cab :p :p

[Empel1960]

Hi NRGZ28,

With the PHM registry editor version in your ROM is not possible to import settings as in the previous ROM's there is a way you can incorporate the other version in your new release?

Great work with your ROM....:D

[akurit]

I havent had a chance to try 1.2 but I have tried the ealier version and it looks great.. very smooth a few freezes...but im sure 1.2 has improved on that...I look forward to dl'ing to my phone again perhaps at 1.3


mmmm whats that smelll.... smells good ..whatchya coooking?


ROMS?

[jdoggraz]

:):):)

Install Pocketnester and download some game roms and you will be set to go with your classic games man.

[LiverpoolFCfan]

You want the eT9 UK in my sig reboot and then drop the attached .txt pad in the eT9 folder on phone :)

I had tried this prior to posting, but I am still unable to get some keys to work correctly - that is why I asked if Rick could help.

Using this method, most keys and Alt-keys work OK - but the TAB never works for the Zero key. And the long keypress of the comma does not give a semicolon, long keypress of the period does not give a colon.

[tomiglio]

NRGZ mate,u should put a countdown timer on the thread :)
Time till the next release....:)

Really looking forward v1.3

[NRGZ28]

Actually I'm putting together a list of issues I need to work on for the next release. Here's what I got so far...


Put DRM back in
comm manager internet sharing icon missing
fix 0 problem in some fields ?
power saving reg edits!
bluetooth activesync ?...
replace htc streaming media player with HTC's verison (drop the idea of implementing Technology's version)

Anything else ?

[jasonusmaximus]

please put DRM back in

[gospeed.racer]

...and that right there would keep me from ever downloading software that contained it. Why you feel the need to market this stuff like a used car salesman is beyond me:rolleyes:

NRG, sounds great- keep up the great work! Did you see the video I posted with the flashing icon? Weird stuff, just wondered if you ever verified it on yours

[germansak]

It seems that's all fixed to me. Please upload it! I'm so anxious.

[torrentsite]

I like the like it is....but bluetooth active sync would be great:)

Which is what turned me off from putting it in my ROM. No matter how great it is, the way he "markets" it pisses me off to no end...

[reggaepoo]

Works fine for me :)

Stylez? Where'd u get that vista skin? It maaad!!

Would you consider the battery life issue a bug at this point? Seems as if a number of us have seen this be an issue?

As others have said, love the ROM otherwise - great work and wish people would stop complaining!

[rma1482]

Love the ROM...flashed my phone a couple of days ago with it and am loving it. Keep up the good work!:D

[iamanalog]

I dont know what battery problems your going on about i've seen the battery life on my phone go up, no longer do i see it drop to 40 from 100 after moderate use.

[NRGZ28]

Version 1.3 upped guys.. please download and test.

This will probably be my final version (bugs fixed or not). Too much drama for me for one ROM....

[jdoggraz]

Version 1.3 upped guys.. please download and test.

No man come on keep this up man, please.... Do not just stop on here man bring this ROM to perfection...

Well I wish I could say something to change your mind but I completely understand why you would choose to do it. I'm not against the remake, but things didn't flow the way they should have.
I hope you continue developing stuff for us (like Miniweather, which I think it's better than the HTC one) and improving this ROM. You will always be the father of this amazing ROM and I'm sure we all know that, even Stylez and Rick, I don't think they had bad intentions and I hope you can iron things out between you and work together as a team.
Thanks again and congratulations on this ROM

P.S. Sorry if something I wrote was not entirely clear but English is not my main language and it's very difficult to express some things.

[Mikey]

This is directed to Tech,
Do not reply to this posting or in this thread.
Stay out of NRG's threads just like you wanted him out of his.

Or you will be seeing "The Light"

Good Day :cool:

[surfing10]

I don't understand one thing.
Why this thread isn't sticky?? NRGZ28 made such a great work here.

I don't understand one thing.

I don't know I think we are waiting to iron out all the bugs.

[NRGZ28]

I asked the mods not to sticky it. This thread will remain at the top on its own... it has enough activity still. I think when I'm done with the ROM, the mods can sticky it for future reference for newcomers, but for now.. there's no need really :)

So are you going to continue ironing out all the bugs...

[sphinx780]

Hey NRG,

I hope you keep working on this ROM but as others have stated, I completely understand if you choose not to and thank you once again for all of your hard work on it. Just like a good album, I prefer the original artist over a remake when the choice is there to be had :D

Once question I have, and I honestly have no idea if it's possible but I'm sure you'd have a better idea on it than most. With the HTC weather panel, do you think there would be anyway to get the update connection working with the t-zones internet proxy? Not a big deal b/c I'd be dumping it the minute you decide to bless us with mini weather for this ROM (if you choose to do so, of course!)

[NRGZ28]

I guess getting miniweather to work with this ROM as well is the next logical step. You will have a working miniweather by the end of the day today ;)

As far as getting it to work with the proxy... not sure. Try searching the forum for a solution getting the HTC Home PPM plugin to work with the 5.99 tzones or even the "Manilla" interface. It's the same software with the same .exe's running the show in the background.

[tuantuti]

im so excited. gonna install 1.3 and report back to all. thanks so much NRG. im so bored w the Dash and now u have given me back the love :D

[sphinx780]

You Rock. I'll see what I can turn up and get an answer up here if I find.

[nhung]

Version 1.3 upped guys.. please download and test.

This will probably be my final version (bugs fixed or not). Too much drama for me for one ROM....

Thanks for the great work. I hope you do not stop improving this ROM. If you do stop, please consider posting your kitchen.

[jgrv]

Great job NRG! just having small problems in version 1.2.. HTC Album wont load images correctly.. RAM memory is very low so If you open SMS plus Camera and then try to open the CommManager it will fail.. oh and if you go to \Windows\StartUp with File Explorer the screen starts blinking.. that's strange..:confused:

[tuantuti]

i think im gonna burst to tears. ive given up on rapidshare, such a pain. anyone with a kindest heart pls share a mirror link pls. im dying to try this ROM, rapidshare is blocking all ip from my country :((

[tommytutone]

Thanks NRGZ28, this is a great ROM. Installed flawlessly, seems very functional, and just flat-out looks awesome. (And my Rhapsody music works now too... yeah I was that guy!)

I'm going to be keeping this one for a long time. :D

That's great to hear man, glad you like it. And I'm glad DRM works right, as I never had anyway to test it, I just kind of dropped it in there.. heh Good news though... :p

[NRGZ28]

MiniWeather 1.3 is ready to be released with support for this ROM. Here's some screenshots... Look for the .cab in the miniweather thread! :P

Look amazing man, great job on Miniweather.

[sphinx780]

Rock on. Can't wait!

[NRGZ28]

It's in in there now.. in the second post. Check it out... see how it works.. keep in mind I didnt really FULLY test it yet, I just kind of threw it together for now :)

[jbmatson]

I've just upgraded to version 1.3, and I've found that I have to press Alt-0 to type a 0 in a phone number field in contacts.

It seems to work ok in other fields, like the to field of a text message.

Is there a fix for this?

[NRGZ28]

I will fix this later (if it's even possible).. but for now, you can live with it.. right ? :)

[jbmatson]

Yeah, it's not a big problem since I figured out I needed to use Alt.

Last night i had to take down someones number on a piece of paper because I couldn't get 0 to work, which was a bit embarassing. hehe

Thanks for making the ROM though. It's pretty cool so far. I hope you'll keep up the good work.

I'm glad I chose a dash... it's really improved heaps since I first upgraded from WM5.0!

[jbmatson]

I don't know if you noticed this as well, but in text fields both 0 and Alt-0 produce a 0, there doesn't appear to be a way of typing a tab.

Not a big problem for me either, but you might want to know...

[NRGZ28]

Yeah I noticed... I'm working on it as we speak. It's weird though, because the layout is exactly how TMobile and Rogers have it setup in their ROMs. I'll mess around with et9.excalibur.0409.kmap.txt file some more and see what I can come up with...:cool:

[kash2k7]

can it sync by bluetooth really hopin sooo like the other version so far keep up the gud wrk n luking forward for WM 6.1 PRo :) i will wait for rose rom 1.4 before i try any thing more:D

[NRGZ28]

Yeah.. I cant get it to work. The ONLY I can make it do is type a 0 in a number field WITHOUT having to push the ALT key. I cant get it to a "tab" though... sorry :/

[gospeed.racer]

I reloaded the Tmobile version of 6.0 and checked out the keymap...its identical. So I tried it...same deal. Tmobile never mapped the Tab key either

edit...verified on the official HTC 6.0 rom as well, tab does not work

[mossimo53]

NRG...i haven't flashed the new one yet...going to flash it anyways but just wanting to know...did u put that sim manager that kavana had in his rom? that would be a great tool to have in the phone!

[NRGZ28]

I reloaded the Tmobile version of 6.0 and checked out the keymap...its identical. So I tried it...same deal. Tmobile never mapped the Tab key either

edit...verified on the official HTC 6.0 rom as well, tab does not work

Yeah, I know... so I dont know what do about this "problem" anymore. I guess I will just leave it the way it is for now...

[aznwannabe358]

Great work, my favorite rom so far! keep up the good work, we all appreciate it!

[jdoggraz]

[tomdot]

Yeah, I know... so I dont know what do about this "problem" anymore. I guess I will just leave it the way it is for now...

and perhaps start working on cooking the BJII ROM based on S740? I have both an Excalibur and a BJII and this Rose ROM is the best I've used! Thank you Thank you.

[tuantuti]

http://www.megaupload.com/de/?d=QSLR7DB7 here you go!

mactron, u r my hero. megaupload is the best. download complete. im gonna install ROM tonite and report tomorrow. thank you so much :D:p.

NRG, u rocks. keep up the good work.

The Tegic eT9 US English Keyboard Fix works for this rom also to fix the zero and symbol keys. Just reboot after installing.
Strange thing happened (twice) that my call, end, and pwer keys just disabled. I couldnt make or end a call and had to remove battery to restarrt. Could not pinpoint exactly when and why this happened.
Thanks NRG- You are very appreciated!

[jeanpiere]

i've been using the attached fixed since ROM v 1.2 n it works perfectly on the dash i have, even the tab work!!!

[cire6]

hope that NRG will not stop doing things like this!!!
youre been a big help, keep it up... :)

thank you, sir!

[mactron]

mactron, u r my hero. megaupload is the best. download complete. im gonna install ROM tonite and report tomorrow. thank you so much :D:p.

NRG, u rocks. keep up the good work.

NP since i got 100 Mbits/s Upload it was fun for me ;)

So before I go try to put these new files in the ROM, did you experience the lockup before or AFTER you installed this Tegic cab ?

[tuantuti]

my impression after 15 mins of installing: very smooth, the effects are attractive. havent test voice quality. keyboard mapping is fine (now i understand the tab problem, but not big deal for me)

i can suggest to include Resco Explorer and SMS pack for your next fix NRG. this would make the ROM perfect. these two softs (in my opinion) are essentials to beginner users like me :D.

In all other aspects, its a great ROM. fast and attractive. well donw. my appreciation to you. :D

[NRGZ28]

The voice quality should be the same... the main drivers are still older and take from WM6.0 (as there's no official 6.1 ROMs for our phones)..

Glad you like it :)

[gospeed.racer]

(now i understand the tab problem, but not big deal for me)

What rom are you coming from that has a working tab key? I will load it on my phone and grab the keymap, I want to see what they did as none of the roms (HTC, Tmobile) that I have tested have a working tab button

[l0lcats]

Will my 8GB SDHC card be recognized by the phone with this ROM installed?

yep. my 8gb sdhc works great.

[jhunkab]

... I will load it on my phone and grab the keymap ...

I have the keymap that works perfect, including the tab key. I had taken it from one of the forum here, after I installed Kavana/Ricky's ROM, as their ROMs did not have good key-map for US T-mobile DASH.

[gospeed.racer]

crud...that keymap is identical to the ones I have tried as well. The tab function must be somewhere else? (kind of like how the dialer on tmobile works, alphanumeric)

[NRGZ28]

gospeed.racer is right... This keymap is the one included in my ROM already. What I think the "problem" is ... some of the .dll's associated with eT9 are different than what's in older ROMs. I'll see if I can play around with them.

i have installed the T9 Keymap cab file found on this forum and it fixed the problem with the tab key. install the cab file, reboot your phone, and voila. i have tested during composing a message and the tab works fine. also when i tried to input the reg code for some softs, the 0 key works fine as well (without holding alt key). i will go home tonite and attach the cab file for all to try.

Thanks man for doing that, can you PM me the cab as well when you get this done please.

[dewey1973]

Thanks for the great work NRG.

The WiFi in your ROM has been more reliable than any other ROM I have used. Usually I have to disconnect and reconnect from my home WiFi every 10 minutes or so. With your ROM, my first attempt online lasted 30 minutes without a single hiccup. AWESOME!

Am I the only Dash user that likes MS's voice command? I know it eats some resources. Is that why you chose not to include it? Does anyone have a link to install it post flash?

Thanks again!

[tuantuti]

here you go. sorry its so late. i just got home from work and upload it rite away.

i installed the cab, rebooted the phone, opened a new message, hold Alt +Space to kick start the input method menu, choose ABC instead of T9, and tested the 0 button. it worked. thats everything i did. good luck all:D

[l0lcats]

I'm setting up applaunchers and dialers with CHome but when I view them on the home screen the icons are uber tiny....what can I do to change that? I had used CHome with Kavana's and did not have this occur.

Also, is there a way I can get SMS, MMS, and EMAIL plus missed calls and voicemail back into one sliding panel?

Oh, and HTC Photo Album is flipping out. Just keeps spazzing on one image. However, there are over 150 pictars on my storage card...is that it's way of saying I'm trying to load previews of each? I can't move the selection from the first image as it always snaps back.

i installed NRG Rose ROM v1.3. the tab key works fine now as i commented earlier. good luck.

to NRG: thanks alot. i love my dash again now :D

also, does anyone know how to reroute the HTC Album to show pictures on the storage card. i cant seem to configure this. thanks.

i also wondered about rerouting the htc album and so far the rom seems pretty smooth and i really like it...heres to the craziest rom out there for the dash!

[tarascaassoc]

I've been running the 1.3 ROM an it is very stable. I install the T9 cab and that is stable and fixes the keyboard perfectly. The encryption setting still doesn't work yet but maybe I'm the only one who uses that. Java apps are still a little wierd, too (just annoying, no crashes). Could anyone confirm this with their favorite Java app?

Excellent work on this ROM development!

[vukashin]

I'm sorry if I'm spoiling the fun :) but when I tried to install this ROM, installation started and at about 3% it said that the app is corrupted and it canceled the installation. I tried to download again install app, but it reported corrupted application again. What am I doing wrong?

P.S. I've followed all the steps mentioned in first post on this thread.

Also the icons in the CHome config panels i create are SMALL pluse the dialer doesn't work! I made my myfavs panel as I had with my install of chome config on Kavana's and it says that "dialer" cannot be found!

:( Fail. Sorry but you're going to have to change this "don't like it, don't use it" attitude. All you will do is push people to those other roms. I never said I didn't like the rom so take your words and shove them down your own throat. I am helping you by adding things to the bugs/does not work list. You can help me and others by providing solutions or fixes. Don't like it? Take the ROM down, remove the thread, and go somewhere else.

[gospeed.racer]

wait, your telling the person that is building the rom to go elsewhere? Dude you need to relax! Its one thing to tell him about the bugs, but to demand that things are pushed out as fast as he can- seriously? Can you go tell Google to fix all the loose ends on the G1 too while your at it:rolleyes:

also, the flickering icon in the photo album was already discussed (by me) and I found that if you delete the two flickering pics in the album it will work just fine. Use explorer to find them, not the photo album. It will be obvious which ones are the problem.

Well that makes sense now that you clarify it....the photo flickering is a personal photo taken on a vacation. You had mentioned deleting the stock images that loaded with the ROM which I had done. Voila, confusion.

Me calm down? lol I wasn't cracking the whip and saying work work work! I expect the releases to come out when they are done. It's just I see this "don't like it don't use it" attitude from NRG a lot and it's like hey now, simmer the f*ck down before you drive everyone away.

I'm fine with the small icons, they've grown on me. But rather than acting like a fool NRG could say oh yeah the icon sizes are set in this .dll or on this line of the .cpr. Dude needs to take a step back and change his approach to support requests...

[sphinx780]

You realize that NRG is doing this in his free time and doesn't have to offer it to anybody, right? I'd be frustrated too if I willingly put in all this time and effort to build something and many people don't even say thanks, they just say 'fix this or do this cuz this sucks'...people could show a little respect for dude and just ask him if he wants to make such and such a change and report a bug. If I were him, I'd probably tell people to piss off and just do my own thing. I'm thankful NRG has shown more patience than that IMHO.

No bearing whatsoever. Don't want the attention don't open the door.

To add further:
The Camera settings are glitched. The d-pad barely navigates through the panels and the cursor, if you will, flies back and forth uncontrollably. I figured I'd set the camera up and change the sharpness, contrast, resolution, etc. Turn off the shutter sound whathaveyou and found the experience to be quite painful.

[NRGZ28]

It's simple... don't like it... don't use it. Nobody's forcing you to do anything you don't want to do, and that includes flashing a new ROM. I don't have to support you in ANY way. Not with THAT attitude...

[DMC78]

Hey guys just installed my first ROM ever and am loving how much better my dash is. Thanks for your work NRG! The only issue I am having is that my activesync won't work. I have tried reinstalling it, but still am not getting anything. It connects but I can't "explore" the device or anything. Any pointers? I have looked through the forums but haven't been able to find anything so far. I am trying to sync it through the USB. Thanks for any help.

Epic Fail. Get out then. Oh, and on your way go ahead and stick this "L" right to your forehead.

[gospeed.racer]

I have not had any activesync problems, but since this is your first rom have you made sure you have the newest activesync installed? you need to be on 4.5

[NRGZ28]

He probably just needs a to do a reboot... Activesync can be weird like that sometimes.

[Billyvnilly]

Hey NRG, did you ever try 96.dpi on your Rose?

Another exciting thing I've tried is the Tasks panel support (its very buggy on rose, but I think its very buggy on everything)

[NRGZ28]

I cant say that I did... I dont imagine it would work "out of the box" though. A lot of things are different about the system files in this ROM...

[iamanalog]

NRG, im probably blind but how do i disable weatherupdateservice... i have 1.3 running and i would think i wouldnt need it to start...

That should do it

Hope it helped

[Knightofhearts]

Great ROM. Its very stable and everything works for me. Quick question is there a way to put MS voice command on this? I know it was included in other ROMs and I was wondering how I can put it on this one.

[DMC78]

I have uninstalled activesync and reset the computer and phone many times. I can get it to connect for a second or so and then it drops. Never syncing. I finally was able to copy over my pim software which it was briefly connected but thats it. Never had issues with this before. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

[DMC78]

The craziest part is that once I get it to connect once (which is very brief before it drops). I have to reset the computer and phone for it to recognize the phone again.

[DMC78]

yes, and I am running Activesync 4.5. I am trying it again, and changing the USB cable, even though I doubt thats it since it has worked fine until i changed the ROM. I really want to make this work, is such an improvement over the Tmobile garbage.

[shawnterry987654321]

Has anyone else noticed a shorter battery life? I flashed v1.3 two days ago and yesterday I noticed my battery was at 50% when i got home after only touching it for a 10 min call. Wi-fi and bt turned off. I just checked it and its at 69% after 3 hours off the charger with no use at all.

that might be a problem with ur battery...mine is having about the same battery life or maybe a lil better than kavana's...too small of a change to tell.
the only problem i have had so far is that when i plug in my headphones i get no sound but if i take them out the speakerphone plays the music....am pretty sure it is not my headphones but then again i can be wrong. fyi it does show an icon in the topbar indicating that my headphones are plugged in...sooo it could be my headphones but just wanting to check if anyone else had that problem. thanks.

when navigating through images on the storage card (click on image to view larger) hitting left takes you forward in the images ( IMG_123 > 124 > and so on) and hitting right takes you back through the images (IMG_124 > 123 > and so on). This should be reversed so that left goes back through the images and right goes forward.

Not something you or I can change. It's the way HTC programmed that particular application.

You guys have to keep in mind that I didn't program this ROM. I don't have control over every single application in it and how it behaves (and this isn't reffering to THIS instance, I'm talking in general). All a ROM cook does (that's me...) is put files together to form a ROM. So if you encounter a bug, or something doesn't work the way you want it to, there's not much I can but look into it to see if *I* did something wrong. Other than that... we're ALL s**t out of luck pretty much.

I'm looking into incorporating it in the ROM. Microsoft also released new emulator images a few days ago, which seem to be newer than the current core this ROM is running on. I will probably be porting that over, so we have the newest and greatest. :p

[shawnterry987654321]

My battery life progressively got worse scene I installed v1.3 a week ago. Finally yesterday it shut off after 5 hours so I put the official rom back on. Its been off the charger for 4 hours now and its at 96%. Just like new. Has anybody else experienced this?

[sphinx780]

My battery life has improved since I started running Rose. Nothing amazingly better but still more than enough to get me through a full day of heavy use with half a battery or so....with light use 2-3 days.

[NRGZ28]

Mine was at 87% after a full day. I dont know what to tell ya other than to try disabling the weather autoupdate.:confused:

[shawnterry987654321]

Weird. Maybe something got screwed over during the install. It did freeze up right after the first cold boot and then navigating around seemed to have a slightly slower response to key strokes then the other roms did. Ill try installing it again tonight.

[NRGZ28]

The very first time it boots up it's very slow. Give it a minute to "settle in" (technically to cache everything) then, start using it :) The next boot and all reboots after that should be much better. If you experience any freezing of menus, try opening Comm Manager first (immediately after a bootup).

[jonj]

Yep - seeing the same problem....battery can drop by 50% in one hour when using phone with BT headset and made a 20 minute call...not sure what is going on but also no problems with previous ROMs....
Love the ROM that NRG made but can't live with the battery issue.

[eeeeeh]

I've flashed my phone with NRG's Rose 1.3 last weekend and it's been great so far. However, whenever I tried playing songs via Audio Manager (or even with Windows Media Player), no sound can be heard (via speakphone or via headset). I can see from the progress bar it is moving along, and I can assure you, the song is playable on my computer (the songs are in 256kbps)..

By the way, the speakers are indeed working when in-call, and it rings just like the old Kavana ROM I've had.

[sphinx780]

That's odd, I'm not seeing the BT issue that several have brought up, been running Rose for several weeks now...had a couple 60+ min BT conversations w/o seeing any out of the ordinary huge battery drain. Usually have my BT connected all day in the office as well with less battery drain than previous ROMS.

[Joe USer]

I've been alternating between the two 'Rose' ROMs and I think that the battery level is not being reported properly.

I left the dash on for 8+ hours and it reported 100%. I've also rebooted when it was under 100% to find the battery at 100% again.

Or it might just be that your battery is getting old, that could be a possibility for it not being read right.

[Joe USer]

Or it might just be that your battery is getting old, that could be a possibility for it not being read right.

It's only 4 mos old, but you might be right on that. I have access to another dash running stock Tmo rom, I'll see how it reports.

Oh ok yah just see how it works... the new 6.1 rom tends to drain more battery power than the other rom (6.0 rom)...

I've got the same weird battery reporting issues with my ATT Fuze and a stock ROM. There's no exact science in approximating battery life left... There's too many factors involved and battery age is probably the biggest. Don't forget that even if you bought it 4 months ago, who knows when it was manufactured before it reached your hands :)

p.s. There's no "two Rose ROMs"... there's only one. This one :) The other one is just this one + addons :)

[iamanalog]

Has anyone noticed that when you backspace it deletes usually 2 characters at a time? more of an annoyance really...

[manichaze]

I'm pretty sure my battery is reporting correctly, I have done some pretty good tests with the rose rom as far as battery life goes. I'm gretting really good life out of it (not using bluetooth or wifi though). I'm having better battery life over the latest kavana rom for sure. FYI The battery is a stock size battery, not extended.

I'm very happy with this rom, has everything I want/need and it runs very well. Keep up the good work NRG!

[DMC78]

NRG I have been loving the ROM for a couple of weeks now. I am just having one problem. If I am talking with someone and then someone calls on call waiting. The phone instantly hangs up both calls, and then I can't make an outbound call for a couple of minutes. Has this happend to anyone else??

DMC

[nymous]

First, thank you for the ROM, I've had better luck with it than others.

This phone has been frustrating me to the point of not wanting to even take it out with me anymore. I experience freezing several times a day. It seems that sometimes if I want to send an MMS it will freeze the whole thing, causing me to have to remove the battery just to get it to boot up. The shortcut keys do this a lot too. Then, as I'm trying to get it to turn back on it will cold boot, erasing all of my photos, contacts, text messages, etc... Very frustrating. Anyone know if I'm just missing something? I'd hate to think that the phone is really just this buggy and unusable. Having to take it home and sync it with my computer so often seems wrong, it shouldn't work this way.

Best version by far all the bugs seem to be gone, love the new sounds and alerts. Great work on your rom man and thanks for getting you weather app up and running for rose rom. Always been a big admirer of your work nrg you are truely one of the best on here man! Any chance of you making a mirror for mediafire?

[DMC78]

Is anyone else having the same issues I am with the call waiting hanging up both calls?? Should I reinstall the rom?

Dude, to be honest I haven't been using my Dash much after I made this ROM for it, so I can't say I experienced that. But maybe someone else can do a test for you and tell us if it's really a bug, or maybe just a glitch in your phone or something. By the way, are what Radio version are you running on your phone ?

I will try to upload it to that. We do need more mirrors... heh

p.s. Thanks for the great review :)

Thanks for your response NRG. Not too sure what you mean by radio. I am new at this game, and I just followed your directions on how to install the ROM. I guess I have the stock radio from my Tmobile Dash with the 6.0 OS. I never put a new one on there. If there are better ones I would defiantly replace it.

hi goto settings then click on about there youll see radio hope this helps

[DMC78]

Thanks, my radio is 4.1.13.34_02.79.90. Is that the latest and best?? Any ideas?

no mine is 4.1.13.51_03.07.90

[NRGZ28]

If you do a search in this forum, someone created a thread with all the available radios. It might be a sticky (if not, it should be!)... but I'm not sure about that. I'm running the TMobile Radio on mine.

[DMC78]

Thanks for your responses. NRG i assume that your Tmobile Radio is 4.1.13.34_02.79.90? I have found some posts where people put links to various radios, but couldn't find a consensus on which radio people had the best luck with.

[NRGZ28]

Yes it is. I'm not sure there's a "best" radio outthere... but I'm okay with the one I got. All I was saying is, try another radio and see if the battery life or call quality improves. If not.. go back to your old radio. Nothing lost :) You dont even have to reflash your ROM or anything. Quick, painless procedure...

[jeanpiere]

i just realized wat causes the bproblem with HTC Album. if a memory card is in it seem to keep check the card for photos n never seems to find them soo it kinna glitches up, this was also seen in "Pictures and Videos" where the app actually freeze if i try to open "menu" after viewing a thumbnail. any advise on this wud be appreciated.
2nd for those of u who wud like to overclock sucessfully in this ROM use the attached software, it has worked flawlessly for me.

[germansak]

The commanager trick worked right away for me. I even reboot several times to see if it kept the config and it did. So it seems to be a one time thing and because of that I guess I'll let you keep the fancy commanager :), it's really cool.
How about the OMAP Clock not keeping changes after reboot? Can that be done?

Cheers

Hi NRG, I've been using v1.3 for a couple of weeks now. Everything works great, but the camera problem came back and I couldn't resolve with the commanager trick that worked last time. I remember that when I did it with v1.3 (I think) it worked ok, but now I did it several times with no luck. The issue was, in case you don't remember, that when you enter in Options on the camera, the soft keys and D-Pad become blocked and I can't navigate trough options.
Any ideas?
Thanks

P.S. I quoted the post when I solved the problem.

[NRGZ28]

To be honest I dont know why it does that. It's a problem with all S740 based ROMs (regardless of the device it they were ported to). So... maybe someone smarter than me can come along and provide an explanation and a fix. I personally think it might have something to do with a DLL that handles some of the custom functions on those Menu's like (send to bluetooth recipient, or Send as Vcard... etc etc).

[objecttothis]

NRG! Great work on this ROM. I absolutely love it. One small thing though. Audio Manager doesn't have volume control on it or the up/down hotkeys. I can still control the volume using the joggr, but here are two reasons I hope will persuade you to include the volume control back in audio manager (or at least the hotkeys):

- In order to get the Joggr to control the volume on it, you have to set the joggr setting to volume control all the time. The setting that allows you to use the joggr as volume control in the music player and in calls only works in WMP and not Audio Manager. This means that anyone who wants to control the volume essentially loses scroll function of the joggr.

- The joggr volume control has only 5 positions and is not very fine tuned at all. The advantage of the up/down hotkeys in audio manager is that I can fine-tune the volume much better.

Thanks again so much for your hard work.

[NRGZ28]

It looks like ver 20282 from the Rose was posted recently, so I will updating this ROM to this newest core version. Hopefully some bugs will go away and who knows... maybe it'll be faster too! I will make a new regular ROM as well as a light ROM in the next few days. Watch this space.... :)

[tornix]

NRG - Great ROM. Looks so much more polished than the older 6.1 ROMs. Particularly love the new dialer. Keep up the great work.


For anyone like myself who likes the new "HTC Home" home screen, but likes a single noitification panel instead of 3 of them, here is a simple change to the XML for the home screen.

First connect your phone to your PC using ActiveSync.

In ActiveSync, click the [Explore] button.

Go to the "\Application Data\Home" folder

The file is called "HTCSlidingPanel.home.xml". Copy it over to your PC, and open it with a text editor.

Look for the line specifying the Plugins ...

<Plugins Order="CClock;CAppointments;CHome;HTCSMSMMS;HTCEMAIL;CWin dowsLive;HTCWeather;HTCFavorite;HTCMUSIC;CWelcomeC enter;Settings" CPRFileName="HTCSlidingPanel" SMSMMSOverride="true" EmailOverride="true" >


Note this has references to HTCSMSMMS - the panel for SMS and MMS notifications - and HTCEMAIL - the panel for EMAIL notifications.

In addition, at the end of the line you can see [SMSMMSOverride="true" EmailOverride="true"] - these are the flags to tell CHome not to display SMS/MMS/Email notifications in it's panel.

If you delete [HTCSMSMMS;HTCEMAIL;] and [SMSMMSOverride="true" EmailOverride="true"] then the CHome panel will display all the notifications as it does in the older Sliding Panel home screens.

My personal preference is also to have the Notifications above the Appointments on the home screen, so I reordered those. You can order then as you wish.

The Plugins line should now look like this ...

<Plugins Order="CClock;CHome;CAppointments;CWindowsLive;HTCFavorit e;HTCMUSIC;CWelcomeCenter;Settings" CPRFileName="HTCSlidingPanel" >


Save the file on the PC, then copy it back to the phone.

Hope this helps other beginner Home Screen Hackers like myself.

I think I found an easier way (just because I was not able to make your solution work, I think I missed something;) ) : it is enough to change [SMSMMSOverride="true" EmailOverride="true"] instead of "true" put "false, just leave everything else as it is, we will be able to hide the two panels (E-mail and SMS/MMS) from the CHome config. Hope this can help someone :D.
Anyway, thanks to LiverpoolFCfan to indicate the right xml file!

By the way.. Rose ver 1.4 is coming today, based on the 20282.1.3.6. Debugging it now, but it's nice and fast so far. I'll be creating a new thread for it.

i have very strange issue with battery - i use Ex whole day (some calls, texts, bubble breaker, little wifi, bt on). at evening i have for example 80% of batt - thats very nice. but somehow, i don't know why, battery capacity seems to drop very rapidly - in 30 minutes i have my Ex completely drain.

so very often i doesn't wake me up, because it's drained

anyone had same problem?

[antipasta]

Is there a cab available for the exact version of htc album that is included in these rose roms? I can't run the rose rom since it's incompatible with my tzones internet for some reason, and would love to get this version of htc album.


I've downloaded 2 different htc camera cabs from this forum, but neither is the one included in this rom.


Would someone be kind enough to direct me to where I could get the rose rom htc album? Thanks!

Yep
I usually have BT and Wifi turned off and use the phone regularly. By the end of the day I have 98% battery life left. I plug in and it completely charges in 15 minues but if I forget to plug in every night the battery dies mid morning the next day. Going from 85% to dead within 3 hours.

That would be sweet. Tmobile just sent us 2 extended batteries for my wife's shadow. Too bad I cant just pop one of those in.

Hey, all.

I've been bumming about my Dash's performance, but I finally invested some time last night and found this ROM. I've done various firmware things over the years, but I was very impressed with this work. Everything is fantastic (BT, Wifi, email, etc...) except for one thing:

My data connection doesn't work through my cell service.

When I go to Comm manager, the Data Connection slice(?) isn't enabled at all. I can't even scroll to highlight it!

Did I miss a step or is there another clue that someone can toss my way?

[NRGZ28]

Well... did you setup your data connection first ?

[bam0027]

Nope. I searched through this thread, but didn't see how to do that.

/me feels sheepish...

Can you point me in the right direction? Thanks for the prompt reply!

[NRGZ28]

You "Connection Setup" in your start menu to do it...

[bam0027]

Ah, that was in the "Accessories" folder under the Start Menu. I should have looked deeper.

Thanks! It works great!

When I get a couple free dollars, I'll be sending a donation. This is an amazing piece of work!

Also, please be aware that NRGZ28's latest build is version 1.4. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=456636). The "upgrade to 6.1 with pics and links" thread is still linking to the previous 1.3 version.

**Mods**: Can you please update NRG's Rose ROM link to the latest version in that thread. Thank you. :)

Hi,

I want to view Thai characters on my Dash, so when I receive a text/email in Thai it shows words instead of rectangles. ;) Will this Rom view asian fonts? If not, can that be added? This is something I really need. I've seen tutorials for adding asian fonts to the stock install, but haven't tried it yet. I'm currently using the latest stock T-mobile 6.0 rom, and haven't taken the 6.1 leap yet. I want to though ... soon. :-)

Thanks for any help!

[NRGZ28]

Sorry it took me so long to come up with a solution for this.. but attached in the second post you'll find a bluetooth stack patch that will adress the freezing menus issue and bt/wifi issues.

Try his new energyROM
MUCH MUCH better then this ROM, especially since this isn't the most recent Rose ROM, 1.4 is, or 1.7 if you want the remade version.

[o00o]

I had upgraded from a rose rom to the new energyrom, sadly after that, my wifi will not turn on...I have tried flashing to different roms, even back to the original t-mobile rom...I still have no wifi, tried the microWlan11g cab. I think its hopeless, because even flashing to this new rom which so far aside from the wifi is awesome, and creating and and copying the wifiInit.lnk still could not fix the issue.

[eran.chason@gmail.com]

On previuse roms, when long pressing the HOME icon, I could say the name to get the dash dialing the phone number... now, it turn on the camera...

Hello friends,

I'm trying to update the ROM on my T-mobile Dash c270 which came with the "rose 1.3"

The upgrade always for the 3%, saying it is corrupt. Somebody help me?

Another problem I have is the little amount of Total Storage: 58.11MB was where to get 128MB. The Total Memory: 43.56 when it was to get 64MB. What can be?

First part answered about 3% to be honest witthout knowing what ROM, whatz instaled etc then the answer is slim.
If you find it's a big issue hard-reset or update? ROM :)
