Set time problem

Thanks for the new ROM build 23557!
Very fast but one small problem is: go to Settings->Clock&Alarms->click tab "Time"->Date: click the arrow to select date, select date on Calendar, Set or Cancel then it don't return back tab "Time" but return to tab "Alarm" and can not do more.

Sorry for the dumb question, but why the most recent version is the 23557 instead of the 28014??

By the way, can you explain the meaning of this numerotation?

A good ROM as usual.

How Can I copy manila2d.exe from \windows to SDCARD?

I can do this at the previous ROMs but not this time, why?

cause its been "modulized"...

only major issue is Ndrive...think its the taskbar thats not alowing it to come to the front...gonna do a quick build 23547 and check if it work then...hope it doesn't cause that would mean it was my mistake :)

5.2.23557 FB issues

Hi pcarvalho,

thank you for your time spent to build your roms! :)
I have a question:
I had an error when I'm trying to test the facebook application: facebook.exe - "The file 'facebook' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. Try reinstalling the application".
And when try to reinstall it from MarketPlace, an error: " Facebook for windows Mobile could not be installed"..
Any idea?

cheers

This as usual up to your standards, even though i don't use it when i went to set the time, in clocks and alarms, if you use the date picker

click set
sent to alarms, and cannot get back.
Then exit and have to set date by keyboard.

Apart from this seems to be excellent!

also i saw you dropped 3rd party task managers, i found every single has major battery drain issues, so good choice there. :)

thanks, note taken...

id just like to point out that all my releases are up to my standards...
else how would i be able to debug most things i do? :)
it takes time to develop/port, just cooking is very easy...
look at me as steven seagal...im not just a simple cook :D

cheers

btw: good news ndrive issue is my fault...bad news is ill take a week to fix it...

err think you took that slightly the wrong way, didnt mean any offence. Just had problems with the last one, as in it would not boot, at all, left it for a few hrs... This one does though. :)
Honestly these are getting better with each one, the ones i was running 6 months ago are slow in comparison ( and they were fast, dont know how to describe these... Lightspeed lol ) now that is development!

On the previous build (WM6.5X build 23541), the free RAM of my Polaris is ~43MB when I use TouchFLO. It's the latest stable ROM with highest free RAM when using TochFLO. With this build (WM6.5X build 23557) everything seem work smooth but the free RAM when using TouchFLO is only ~24-25MB. Therefore I use Titamium Today now and everything is OK (wiht ~40MB free RAM). My Polaris runs very smoothly.
Many thanks to pcarvalho!
Sorry for my English :D

Pcarvalho - firstly THANKS for all your hard work and the great ROMS you push out to keep these HTC Polaris devices still competing with the latest devices (well in my eyes :)).

I have one slight issue with Email which I'm not sure if its local to me so hoping someone can confirm or not. There doesn't seem to be the options for configuring email that used to be available. I have no way of setting the size of the email to download and whether or not to download pictures. It seems one of the email config screens is missing. As such only part of the emails are initially downloaded. Anyone else having this issue - if not - I'll reflash the ROM.

>>>Update<<< Okay - It looks like I have found a solution to the Email download options. It seems they are well hidden away and possibly only available if you use the right Application to setup the Email Account. I'll try some more first - I'm sure it was easier than this before ;)


Also, the size of the font in the Email app seems much larger than in previous ROMS - is this easily configurable? How can I make it smaller?

BTW - REALLY like the new SMS skin - makes threaded SMS very easy to read.

Thanks again for all your hard work - much appreciated.

Hey,
my Orbit 2 crashed over night.
When i tried to turn it on, it acted just like as if I did a hardreset.
My radio rom is 1.59.46.12 and i flashed it using win 7.
I think i flash the original rom and then reflash this one today.

    I have tried this solution but it only works for once......

    after that there is no sound on the device.....its like i have a dead speaker....no tones no nothing.....

    any other solution or a re-cooked rom with the problem pre-fixed?

    hi greekfragma,

    im currently uploading a fixed rom, removed the app that made these sound issues happen...

    once its uploaded ill post here its link...

    cheers

    next up...

    COM3 build 29017 has:
    -htc volume control (goodbye old wm volume control)
    -newer sip menu (now works like newer devices)
    -new utask by ultrashot (press and hold taskmanager for settings)
    -sip icon overlap fix in phonecanvas (now 2G dialer should be without glitches)...

    major issues:
    -since its COM3 phonecanvas/screenlock may have issues that need to get debugged

    -ezinput also has an issue, one can now change layout/languages alot easier but to make things work after every change touch input settings (sip menu item) has to be run, some layouts my be unfinished still...

    alpha state is just cause i need people to test it...other then that its fully working rom...

    cheers

    hi my fellow htc cruise owners

    before i begin thank you those that believed in me and that due to my absense got worried...i am...ok...worrie no more please...

    sorry for being away for so long but both work and personal life made it very hard to finish what i was doing...that was at the time...fixing stuff 2 make our polaris work a bit more a bit longer...

    meanwhile i had a complete system break down, i had copies but not very updated and i would have 2 remake most of the rom all over again

    all my efforts went, sort to say, down the drain...

    i even managed 2 loose all my passwords, cause i saved them all in my browser (stupid me :) )...including xda forum one...

    additionally my own htc polaris also failed me, on one of my last capable attempts on making a android rom...

    i ended up losing 50% of the storage capacity...

    all these events leaded 2 my total and complete lost in work and ability to bring my simple attempt on making a bug less rom to a final stage...

    all and all it was a fun stage...i enjoyed it a lot...hope some of u enjoyed it too...

    again sorry for being away for such a long long time...but i only was able to recover my account password 2 weeks ago...

    since i had no more working kitchen nor workable device i decided 2 move on a month or so ago...

    i have joined the android era...

    gotten a new device and will start finding out how android OS is made up, once i have the time (if i ever will have it any time soon)...

    again thank you to all...

    if u ever need any help please contact me via PM (something i also have 2 take care cause my PM box got a bit full)


    cheers
