HTC Decided That Old Users would not miss the Camera Button and they only care about the New users:mad:. I do miss the extra Camera Button And i miss a decent D-Pad, how the hell are we supposed to play Games. If i'm correct these Long_ hooks should be somewhere in KbdNopAll.dll or keypad.dll

No Camera in there, but i do wonder what some of these do and react to
Short_Power.lnk
Long_Power.lnk
Short_PTT.lnk
Long_PTT.lnk
Short_SMS.lnk ?
Long_Send.lnk
Short_Explore.lnk ?
Short_OperaL.lnk ?
Short_Messaging.lnk ?
Short_SMS.lnk ?
As Raphael does not have Internet buttons.

Which Gives me change of the first finished "Removed Packages" attachments.

Small Tute on Using These .XDAS files.

I have removed packages from the ROM that i really never have any need for personally.
I will try to provide these as .XDAS files instead of Cabs.

They are quicker and leave less mess than a .cab file
Download the file, then take away the .zip extension.
Then drop them into the XDA_UC folder on your SD card before Flashing.
Or you can execute them on the device by renaming the .xdas extension to .xda after flashing.
This is of course only if you need this particular part.
Do not rename the package beyond taking away the .zip extension as it will not install.

These hooks are in keypad.dll, there is an app(PTT Mod) which adds them all to Settings>Buttons even with icons. Should be in OEM repo, or send me a PM and I'll give you the Legacy version. Thanks for the scripts. Might throw the SMS threading into my new PHM Administrative folder ;) Thanks, and dont forget to grab the updated icon in OEM Repo too.

Fantastic rom :)

thanks

Great to hear from a very early version of the rom at least i know i'm doing something good.

I will add Dutch Keyboard support in next versions BTW haven't had the time yet.

As for current stuff:
I have chosen to remove the ConnectionSetupDownload from the Package.
I had already disabled it, but since this is XDA and we can alway get the latest and the greatest, i see no use for a service that downloads uopdated Connection settings that rarely get updated more then the ones we already finsd and cook in. One less Service killed.

Noonski, I was just eager to see full ROM screenshots, like program icons, settings, about, device info. That would be good marketing tool too. ;)

Greetings Noonski,

I tried your ROM last night. It looks like it will be a great product when completed. I noted a couple of items that you may wish to look at.

  1. This was the first ROM I tried that did not pick-up my previous time & date.
  2. When I clicked on the clock in TF to set the correct time, I added a city and the keyboard poped-up, but would not work. I pressed keys, but nothing happened. I did the same thing later and the keyboard did not pop up, so maybe it was not supposed to the first time. Also I tried using the vertical a-z list on the right to select United States. I highlighted the U, but did not move the list. It just stayed at the top and it was necessary to scroll.
  3. Backlight settings could not survive the first 2 soft resets. They went back to default. After 2 it worked fine.
  4. I initially liked the look of the menus for Programs, Setting etc... but they became confusing and cluttered with so many nested menus all stacked on top of each other. I would be 4 or 5 menus deep and if I pressed the back key, it would close all of them, not just the one I was in. It made navigating the menus difficult.
Items 1-3 are no big deal. #4 I found to be not to my liking. I am certian that many others will really like it, but for me I could not get the hang of it. I actually installed SPB Shell just to figure out what was on the phone. The menu system of Shell is very simple and easy to navigate; similar to native 6.1.

Thanks for your efforts. I am sure that the finished product will be great.

1. I don't get this, I never flashed a rom that would keep the time and date. But the rom's date is set to the official release date i have not changed that as Synchro time pops up in the end to get me the exact time.
2. Yup i need to remove a reg that sets keyboard to Dutch while Dutch isn't in there ;) Should be sorted.

3. Backlight settings are being handled by Lumos not the OS so that might be the conflict. Lumos has more efective options and i use a lower backlight to start with. Check out the options on Lumos.

4. I will eventually provide a .xdas file for the Default HTC Start Menu and maybe even the New Manilla Start Menu.

I've had the time and time zone set up a few times after a flash; it happened when I had the sim card in the phone and I let the phone sit a while before initiating customization with screen alignment. It's kind of cool, but as I recall I had to wait a good 10 minutes for it to happen. I usually leave the sim card out now just to avoid problems during customization.

This probably explains my luck. I have flashed so many times, I have gotten too lazy to take the SIM card out. However, usually by the time the customizations are done, the time & date are set. I have never noticed them being wrong.

I have mostly been flashing 6.5 ROMS. This is the first 6.1 I have done in about 6 weeks or so. Perhaps that makes a difference.

I always Leave the Sim in, Maybe i'm missing the point of the issue here?
Did your Previous Roms come with A Custom First Boot Splash Screen or the Default one?
Only thing different i can think of is that i'm not using the same Kitchen setup most are using, It's actually an older Diamond Kitchen Changed to my preferred method. I like the XIP Seperated as Physical Folders and Files (as far as Digital Files can be Physical), Just because i i have this mental defect where i like to see what i'm eating.

Note: Added Custom Adobe Reader from Topaz and Rhodium Builds, removed Keyboard being set to Dutch Issue at Start.

Forgive me if I sound like I am complaining. That is not at all my intention. It was simply something that was different. Really no big deal at all. I just though you might like some feed back from a flash addict.

Some of the ROMS have a custom boot screen some do not; probably about 50/50.

Some enhanced menu features require ROM/SYS 21000+ to work. For example, Rhodium packages will be unpredictable on 20764 & 20771 ROM/SYS'es.

HTH,

Just trying to figure out what i'm doing different ;), So in other words it was actually appreciated.

Some enhanced menu features require ROM/SYS 21000+ to work. For example, Rhodium packages will be unpredictable on 20764 & 20771 ROM/SYS'es.

HTH,

I'm using a Patched gwes.exe so the Apps will read 21000+ . (don't remember where i got it precisely but thanks)

Oeps, sorry didn't even see that i was replying to you, How You doing!

As i have noticed i can't keep anything to myself i will probably also try to attach the OEM's i'm using in Post two. They'll be Legacy but that shouldn't be A Problem for you.

has anybody been able to get enlarged start menu to work? Ive tried Da G's cab and it wont work, I looked in the registry and it says its enabled.

Can you post the Cab?
(easier, so i don't need to make a new one, and i don't know which Elnarged StartMenu your using The WM6.5 like or old one)
Some StartMenu's where started by BootLauncher, if that is the case there's an easy fix for it probably.

Note & Question:
Tomorrow i'm going to test a Home screen Manila Home Tab Backdrop Changing Script
How long would be a good rotation time? (You stop the rotation when you choose your own Custom Backdrop and you can change the time also or add your own Backdrops)

And who wants/has some original GreySkalish Backdrops that would fit?

And , Yes! Finally got Butler working without getting Cold Boot's.

So i'd like to get some feedback on this setup to.

Keyboard out either Stylus in or Out is set to NulKeyboard.
Stylus Out is Default Windows Keyboard (My favourite and still fastest way to type with Stylus)
Stylus In HTC Phone KeyPad
For The Left Up/Down Down/Up Right Down/Up Up/Down swypes of the Keypad I'm looking to implement Copy/Cut/Paste And something else.
(Copy, Paste, Cut will be be set to the Swipe Closest to the Windows 7 Gesture commands for Touch Screens).

So what is a most wanted app or command for that fourth swipe?
Personally i'm thinking of putting the Camera there as there's no hardware button, leaving the Right home softkey open for another app.
Or maybe add a CTRL+Z into the Game?

And What is yiour favourite Portrait Finger Friendly HTC Keyboard?

Face Down will be set to Lock Device so the Long Press of Endkey can be used for something else
These Swipes Will be configurable using the script added to the ControlPanel\System\Admin Tools folder.

I always pay attention to good FeedBack that is backed up by a focus that has a Focus on the Needs of the many and not just the one.

(looks like it's going to take a century making this Rom at this rate)

this is the cab ive been trying to use

Can you try this one.

G's other Cab was missing the MUI file for it maybe that's the problem.

Tested it, It's working.

But like i said i will in time also but up the new HTC Start Menu (unless there's a secret reg i'm overlooking that does it with this one to)

And since a lot of Ya'll don't know me from before, let me inroduce the "Nightlies"

Nightlies are the Builds i'm at this very moment just before i go to sleep.
So it's For Sure Beta But it's got the latest Additions and Tweaks i'm testing at the moment.
I could say Flash at own risk, but that would go to far. But at least for this build you can go and play with the Cut and Paste Gestures on the D-Pad.
The Nightlies can be found in my Signature.

Added:
PACKAGE_Noonski_Tom_Codon_CMIternetSharing_0000_0_9_2_0
HTC's Wifi Internet Sharting Solution, Compressed Exe and Graphics added to Control Panel with My Icon.

Great ROM. I have been looking for a stripped down/optimized version of the latest official 6.1 rom. This one seems solid so far.

It's not that Stripped ;) (haven't listed everything yet, Still need to bring over my Compressed Dialer to get ICR working again)

And i just added Remote Tracker to the List, "Never let someone steal your phone and get away with it"

Thanks for giving the Preview a Shot.

In an hour a next Nightly will be up With Wifi Sharing and a few New HomeScreens.

Also there's a Keyboard Lay-out Switching Script Suplied by B4PJS in, Control Panel >> System >> Administrative Tools.
I haven't been able to test this since i don't have a Fuze.

And there will be Some Push to Talk Mods in there in the Future Supplied by jmckeejr if I'm Correct.
With Competition like this you don't need Friends. (Hope People see the Positive Side of the Joke)
V4 Nightly

Finished adjusting configuration script to change the 4 butler Swipe methods on the Touch Pad.

Switched to WM Diamondish MS Phone Dialer, HTC Dialer is included and again a script is added to change that.

HTC dialer is also now with the slider enabled and Compressed Graphics for a decrease in memory usage.

Discriptions and Nightly will be up tomorow. Should be reaching Release Canditate in two weeks (you must think i'm slow huh)

Somehow i can't seem to get past the BCR not working issue.

Since Start Menu's seem to be a personal thing, i am contemplating of adding in 4 types and maybe if possible 5 types of Start menu's into the rom which can be set through another configuration script. That is if i find the correct parameter to kill a service with dot fred's taskmanager.
Hint Hint ;)

    Consider it a Standard Stock Rom +1 and this list still needs to be finalized.

    Stuff That Is Not In This Rom:
    No Help Files And no .lnk Files, Welcome Center, Windows Update, Managed Programs, MSN, OneNote, SQM and a lot of other unneeded Crap. Most of the Extra apps are installed into their regular Program Files Folders without the use of Unnecesary cab's and Double's in the Windows Folder (resulting in a Packed but still response rom)

    Tap the X mark in a window corner. If it doesn't help tap and hold the X mark. Default behaviour may be changed in phone settings or through 3rd party software, like Advanced Configuration Tool.

    Try creating the directory in the error message on your card and then hard reset. Or, put in another sd card and hard reset. Also, scan your card for any errors; it sounds like you've got a bad card.
