Good Thread, ill try this and report back!!
Is there any way to get a faster DL than 30K per second?
Can somebody post pictures of the User Interface of this tool!

Click to collapse
im trying to download it, but i can only get 30k per second!! its really slow, when i get it i will
See attached the user interface:
On the left side all selectable files and proggies, on the top the "go" button.
bennec83: I was downloading it with at about 150K, maybe now there are to many downloaders
My DL is now at 65K! am i to assume that this is a fully automated kitchen, with OEM aps included?
so you can deconstruct a ROM and add your own packs, or is this for totally designing you own ROM?
Its objective is to give a simple interface to select or deslect packages at will. You can put in as much or as little as you want.

You can add your own packs but only predetermined packs. On the first view its a great tool, thanks to matt for it.
Matt is TouchFlo added here already? or is that at a later date?
quick question about the htc home plugin included, is it the one with 3 tabs or the new one from the kaiser with 5 tabs?
5 tabs would be excellent, also the kaiser has a very nice comm manager with a 3g tab on it!!!
do you thing you could include these?
I'm wanting to get to it, but touchflo has been nearly all-dominating lately.
As time goes along and new packages are found/created/made available, I'll add them in. I wasn't aware of the new OS release, and it seems that's a pretty hot item
No worries though, between touchflo, the new os, and the kaizer files, I think there's lots of new stuff coming...
Edit: oh, and it's the 3 button
Mattk_r... you come as a bright light just as JJ retires
I hope you release TuchFlo ROM with kaiser files but without all those extra apps ( I like big storage to customize with my own apps )... Keep only important ones like Office, Streaming media, MSN Live, ect.. ( thats why I liked JJ`s ROMs )
EDIT: Ignore my post.. lol.. I thought you are a cooker, not a kitchen developer ;D
lol.. Matt do you have the TouchFlo dll included in this kitchen already? or are you gunna update later?

Shooting for v2.0 because it'll involve major change... As it stands right this second (with only a handful of tests under my belt), the Touch touch.dll causes the phone to hang before loading the third splash screen... gonna be a long night
hehe.. The thing I dont understand is I saw it working FLAWLESSLY on an Artemis and Wizard.. why wouldn't it work on Hermes. Did they get the finger scrolling part of TouchFlo working on Wizard?
Good If Porting From Black Majik
I Think Taht The Black Majikis The Best Rom For The Htc Tytn Thanks To Jj But We Always Wants The Best So Go On
If it isn't too much trouble, can you tell us what version numbers each of those packages are?
This is FANTASTIC thanks so much for your work bro I have been watching your other versions of this kitchen and I am SOOOO happy its come to hermes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can someone please upload this to a faster site i am getting 50k.

Using the Auto Installation Feature [optional]
Step 1: Preparing the cabs
---------------------------
- To use the auto installation features, the cabs must be set to "Read Only", must not have any "setup dll", and must have a "hard coded installation path" which means you should not be allowed an option to choose where to install the cabs.
- To set the cabs to a static path, install WinCECab Manager.
- Open a cab with WinCE Cab Manager and click on "CAB Information".
- Double click on "Default Install Dir" then select "Installation Directory" tab and choose "Do not allow user to select installation directory"
- Save the cab then right click on the cab and select "Read Only" and click apply/OK.
- Check if there "Setup dll" is present under Cab Information. If setup dll is present, delete it off.
- Check and prepare all the cabs you want to auto install and place them into the Cabs Folder.
Step 2: Editing the Config.txt file
-----------------------------------
- You will now need to add the file names into the config.txt file.
- Open up Config.txt in "Cabs" folder with Notepad.
- You should see the following content:
Code:
LOCK:Enabled
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\Call_Firewall.cab
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\TCPMP.cab
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\FlashVideoBundle.CAB
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\Threaded_SMS.cab
LOCK: Disabled
RST: Reset
- Ignore the Fist line "LOCK" and the last two lines "LOCK", "RST"
- From here on, it should be pretty straight forward. For every cab you want to install, you will need the line:
Code:
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\*CAB FILE NAME*
- Simply Add the name of the cabs you prepared earlier into this file and click "save".
- Right click on the config.txt file and select Read Only.
Step 3: HARD RESET!
---------------------
- Finally, HARD RESET the phone by holding down the two soft keys simultaneously, and push the reset button with the stylus
- Auto installation will begin after the Rom completes its configuration
THAT's ALL!! Not too hard is it?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Installing Cabs to Storage Card with the Auto Installation Feature
Step 1: Changing the cab's path
---------------------------------
- Open up the cab you want to install to storage card with WinCE Cab Manager.
- Select Installation Directory and change the path to "Storage Card\"
- All Other Rules from above apply
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Accessing Advanced Settings from PHM Registry
STEP 1: Launch PHM Registry
------------------------------
- Launch PHM Registry
- Click on the "Favorites icon" indicated in the picture.
STEP 2: Change the settings

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between this Rom and the Flexi Rom?
A: The Flexi Rom has better customize-ability in the sense that almost every app installed in the rom can be uninstalled from windows. However, there is a speed penalty for the extra flexibility. OTOH, this version of the Rom is the original K's Rom, with enhanced speed and stability. However, most of the apps are cooked-in and cannot be uninstalled from windows like the Flexi Rom.
Q: Hardware keyboard symbols are incorrectly mapped....
A: Default Layout is AT&T 8525's layout. You can change the layout with PHM Registry. Select the Keyboard layout shortcut and change the settings to:
The following values are in "HEXADECIMAL"
Code:
Spanish Hermes
"Layout"="2040a"
Japanese/Softbank
"Layout"="30411"
German Hermes
"Layout"="20407"
8525/Chinese (default)
"Layout"="20404"
TyTn/English (British)
"Layout"="20409"
Q: How quickly does the phone ring?
A: Awake state: by the end of 1st ring; Sleep state: At the begining of 2nd ring
Q: I can't save pocket outlook attachments to storage card.
A: Make sure Extended Rom is hidden.
Q: How do I close apps? clicking on "X" only minimizes the apps (LITE ONLY)
A: Press and hold "X" until app closes in Full version. For Lite version, install a task manager. (Recommendation: HTC Task Manager + Task switch combo (included in Full) | WkTask)
Q: How do I get WM5torage to work? I activated the app but nothing happens
A: After activating WM5torage, click on menu -> troubleshooting -> disable both options.
Q: The Rom doesn't look anything like the picture.
A: Chances are you downloaded the Lite Version. Full version is shown in the picture.
Q: After installing HTC Action Screen in the LITE rom, the soft keys still show Contacts/Calendar
A: Change the following registry settings with PHM Registry:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112]
@="Actions"
"Open"="\Windows\HTCActionScreen.exe"
(113 = Right soft key, 112= Left soft key)
Q: I am using a different theme in this rom, how can I change Random Access bar color?
A: Copy RS_Bar.png & RS_Ind.png from Windows dir, change the color, and toss them back into Windows
Q: How can I enable startup animation and sound? (NOT Recommended)
A: It is not recommended to enable startup animation and sound as it cripples the phone volume.
Add the following registry keys
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"Volumn"=dword:20
"WAVFile"="\SOURCE DIRECTORY\Startup_sounds.wav"
"GIFFile"="\SOURCE DIRECTORY\HTC.gif"
"Enabled"=dword:1
Source directory = Wherever your files are i.e. Windows, Extended_ROM, an etc
Q: After changing to other themes and going back to K's theme, the theme is no longer black but gray
A: Using PHM Registry, select favorites -> BaseHue, then put in the following value:
Code:
[FONT=Verdana][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Color]
Basehue=160
[/FONT]
Q: How to View/Store Pictures in Storage Card
A: By default, HTC album searches pictures in My Pictures and DCIM folder.
Code:
- Create "My Documents" folder in storage card
- Create "My Pictures" and "My Videos" folders in My Documents
- In the camera, select storage card for default storage location
Pictures taken will be saved in storage card.
Q: How do I get HTC Album to show all pictures
A: Rename My Pictures Folder to something else and HTC Album will show all pictures.
Q: I cannot get HTC Album to save in Storage Card
A: Make sure Network Folder Plugin is disabled (settings -> connections)
Q: There's no Events sound...and some Apps notification sound is disabled...
A: Events Sound disabled, re enable in settings -> Sound & Notifications -> Events
Q: WMP freezes when updating library!
A: If you are addings songs from storage card, select "show all files" and delete METADATA folder. Library should update without any problems now.
Q: The Rom drains battery quickly!
A: Let the battery fully drain out, then do a full recharge.
Q: The Final version is released....you're done?
A: Still far from "done". Will be working on WM6.1 and a completely different theme for future Roms.

YouTube Package - TCPMP + Flash Video Bundle [Included in cabs folder] - Everything you need to start watching youtube and some other FLV sites. Simply browse to the FULL FLV website (NOT mobile version of those web sites) and watch all the videos you want. Clips can also be downloaded to the phone!
***NOTE: Most FLV websites are fully supported, some are not. Do not expect every single FLV site to work.
Other Hardkey Mapper - If you plan to use other hardkey mapper i.e. spb/AE button plus, you may need to remove PTT Fix and do a soft reset before the other app could work.
HTC Equalizer 1.0.2 - Requires headphone to be plugged in before it can work. There is a bug with headphone equalizer whereby the bottom taskbar may disappear, leaving only the keyboard icon intact. It does not affect the functions, but it is annoying. This bug is found on all headphone equalizer I know out there. Hence....it will not be cooked into the rom but available as a stand alone.
illumsoft Screen Capture v1.1 - This is what I used to take the screenshot, the app icon is seen in one of the pictures but it is not cooked in. When the app is running, Button1 (sms hard key) is mapped to take screenshot. You can also set timer and etc. FREEWARE!
Hermes Registry Settings (click me) - Hermes Registry wiki. Re-enable some of the settings I disabled if you want
Jeyo SMS Backup 1.1 - Small app that back up SMS. This is what previously installed in v1.2 but removed in 1.21.
HTC Album Landscape/Portrait Patch - There are 2 cabs in the zip file. You can patch HTC Album to launch in either mode. However, default is landscape mode as slideshow menu gets truncated in portrait mode.

Ditto. Only thing I'll miss having is the classic dialer on VP3G's rom. Anyone know what its called? Where the call history is shown right when you go into the dialer?
downloading ...................... thx bro...
flashing it now... pictures looking great
...and it is really fast!
Great rom...!
A French version is planned?
Seems nice.
I'll try that one anytime soon
Thanks
So far so good. Nice and quick. And I got the dialer I wanted, just had to remove the video dialer. Thanks for sharing.
framework
seems cool.
have you cooked in the latest .net framework 3.5 or is it still 2.0?
if you would release optionally a cleaner rom (without BT Explorer, Flashlight, VoiceRecorder, WM5torage, SmsBackup, SuperBright, PHM Registry, Internet Sharing, Soft-Reset Shortcut, ArcSoft MMS, AdobePDF, Adobe Reader, FlashLitePlayer, Pocket RAR, StreamingMedia, ...) and provide cabs for those tools then it would be perfect!
The rom is built on NetCF 2.0. I have updated the page with microsoft NetCF 3.5 beta 1 link if you wish to download NetCF 3.5. I will cook it in on the next release.
I didn't plan on releasing a lite rom since there were already so many lite roms out there, but removing those apps is easy so I will likely release a lite rom along with an update shortly.
Schen's 3G kaiser dialer is the only dialer that is 100% bug free from all the kaiser dialer that I've tested. If you use the 2G kaiser dialer, or any dialer directly ported from the elf, there is an issue with missing texts when you enter letters and numbers at the same time into the dialer. Again, I didn't want to use anything that is buggy, this rom has been personally tested thoroughly by me to ensure there is virtually no bugs that'd affect daily usage. Also, I wanted to cook in the video dialer because that'd make life easier for the folks with hermes that support video dialing. For us folks in the NA, it really doesn't matter if the dialer is 3G or 2G just dont use the video button
Also, I strongly recommend people to change the pagepool to 6mb prior to flashing the rom, it is very easy to do so with the pagepool changer.
Please report any bugs you may have found
intriguing, may I ask, what did you use as the base ROM? I've been trying too cook a Kaiser style ROM (with the dialer, com manager, etc. you feature) based on Schaps 4.20 with little succuess, and this ROM seems pretty close (I'm flashing as soon as I can to test it out). Thank you for your work!
i played with it for a bit last night, and this rom seems to actually be gaining me about 5-10 FPS in Pocket GNUBoy (GBC emulator) coming from shamanix's grass 1.3.
seems pretty snappy in other things, but ill keep using it for a couple days.
cant download from the links posted, can u post it on rapidshare? my country cant download from megaupload...
many thanks in advance
None of the links are working. Looks like a nice rom.

Using the Auto Installation Feature
Step 1: Preparing the cabs
---------------------------
- To use the auto installation features, the cabs must be set to "Read Only", must not have any "setup dll", and must have a "hard coded installation path" which means you should not be allowed an option to choose where to install the cabs.
- To set the cabs to a static path, install WinCECab Manager.
- Open a cab with WinCE Cab Manager and click on "CAB Information".
- Double click on "Default Install Dir" then select "Installation Directory" tab and choose "Do not allow user to select installation directory"
- Save the cab then right click on the can and select "Read Only" and click apply/OK.
- Check if there "Setup dll" is present under Cab Information. If setup dll is present, delete it off.
- Check and prepare all the cabs you want to auto install and place them into the Cabs Folder.
Step 2: Editing the Config.txt file
-----------------------------------
- You will now need to add the file names into the config.txt file.
- Open up Config.txt in "Cabs" folder with Notepad.
- You should see the following content:
Code:
LOCK:Enabled
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\Call_Firewall.cab
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\TCPMP.cab
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\FlashVideoBundle.CAB
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\Threaded_SMS.cab
LOCK: Disabled
RST: Reset
- Ignore the Fist line "LOCK" and the last two lines "LOCK", "RST"
- From here on, it should be pretty straight forward. For every cab you want to install, you will need the line:
Code:
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\*CAB FILE NAME*
- Simply Add the name of the cabs you prepared earlier into this file and click "save".
- Right click on the config.txt file and select Read Only.
Step 3: HARD RESET!
---------------------
- Finally, HARD RESET the phone by holding down the two soft keys simultaneously, and push the reset button with the stylus
- Auto installation will begin after the Rom completes its configuration
THAT's ALL!! Not too hard is it?

FAQ
Q: Hardware keyboard symbols are incorrectly mapped....
A: Default Layout is AT&T 8525's layout. You can change the layout with PHM Registry. Select the Keyboard layout shortcut and change the settings to:
Q: I cannot map HOTVOICE to button 5
A: This is a known issue with the current keyboard driver, you can map hotvoice to any other buttons but button 5.
Q: My GPRS/MMS is not working
A: Install Connection Setup cab. Go into settings -> connection tab -> connection setup, and setup your operator.
Q: After playing with Advanced Config/SK tools with this rom, the beam button in Comm Manager disappeared!
A: Add the missing button back from Advanced config. Button 10 = "Beam" or don't use those tools.
Q: I can't save pocket outlook attachments to storage card.
A: Make sure Extended Rom is hidden.
Q: How do I close apps? clicking on "X" only minimizes the apps (LITE ONLY)
A: Press and hold "X" until app closes in Full version. For Lite version, install a task manager. (Recommendation: HTC Task Manager + Task switch combo (included in Full) | WkTask)
Q: How do I get WM5torage to work? I activated the app but nothing happens
A: After activating WM5torage, click on menu -> troubleshooting -> disable both options.
Q: The Rom doesn't look anything like the picture.
A: Chances are you downloaded the Lite Version. Full version is shown in the picture.
Q: After installing HTC Action Screen in the LITE rom, the soft keys still show Contacts/Calendar
A: Change the following registry settings with PHM Registry:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112]
@="Actions"
"Open"="\Windows\HTCActionScreen.exe"
(113 = Right soft key, 112= Left soft key)
Q: How do I disable Random Access? (Those letters on the right of Contacts)
A: Change the following registry settings with PHM Registry:
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113]
"Open"="\Windows\Contacts"
or Simply uninstall it if you are using the full version. Make sure "end" contacts in memory management before uninstalling.
Q: I am using a different theme in this rom, how can I change Random Access bar color?
A: Copy RS_Bar.png & RS_Ind.png from Windows dir, change the color, and toss them back into Windows
Q: How can I enable startup animation and sound? (NOT Recommended)
A: It is not recommended to enable startup animation and sound as it cripples the phone volume.
Add the following registry keys
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"Volumn"=dword:20
"WAVFile"="\SOURCE DIRECTORY\Startup_sounds.wav"
"GIFFile"="\SOURCE DIRECTORY\HTC.gif"
"Enabled"=dword:1
Source directory = Wherever your files are i.e. Windows, Extended_ROM, an etc
Q: After changing to other themes and going back to K's theme, the theme is no longer black but gray
A: Download the file (BlackGlossyBars.cab) from the archived thread and install it. You will need to do this every time after you changed to other theme. Alternatively, you can change the basehue registry value to 160 using PHM Registry.
Q: How to View/Store Pictures in Storage Card
A: By default, HTC album searches pictures in My Pictures and DCIM folder.
Code:
- Create "My Documents" folder in storage card
- Create "My Pictures" and "My Videos" folders in My Documents
- In the camera, select storage card for default storage location
Pictures taken will be saved in storage card.
Q: How do I get HTC Album to show all pictures
A: Rename My Pictures Folder to something else and HTC Album will show all pictures.
Q: Will you cook in the HTC Album with folder selection option?
A: No. It prompts you to select the folder every time which is a nuisance, and it is buggy.
Q: The rom drains battery quickly!
A: Let the battery fully drain out, then do a full recharge.

Come back in a few hours and it should be up. I need to tidy up the thread first.
Thread looks awesome now, I cannot wait for it...
Great work Kin0kin!!! I know, I know, these "thank you" posts sucks, but only today
Just announced on Czech community forum, advertising must be for this glorious ROM.
Finally, I have to stay awake all night long again for this beast
Great Job, bro ! I think this is the right time to donate
*waiting mode ON*
Complete Rom is up now enjoy
PagePool
@Kin0Kin
Do you recommend to use the pagepool changer tool to adjust it 6 megs instead of 4 ? Or the 4 megs is enough ?
Thanks
Thanks Kin0Kin for your great ROM!
I have uploaded the 6mbpp version. You can flash whichever you want. Also, if you do not plan on using the auto install feature, take out your storage card and the Rom will complete and reset after installing everything from extended rom.

Is the path 'Storage Card\Cabs\' hardcoded? How does the OS find the config.txt file?
Nice job K. Seems to be hanging in the install of TCPMP, I hard reset and tried again, same thing. I will install the cab manually after a reset.
Edit: Looks like the path is not hard coded hence the hang. Easy fix. Great fast ROM.

My install looked like it hung on TCPMP too, but after much patience, it did finish.
However, I think I mucked up the auto CAB install by not putting the config.txt file in the right spot. Must figure out...
Other thoughts -- I had to download the Connection Setup cab from the 1.30a thread as it's not part of this package? Once I ran that, data connection is config'd correctly (for AT&T/US).
Well Done & Thanks
Kin0kin,
Well done. Just about to install. Hope you took my advice and went out for a beer!
I really do like your work. I thought Schaps was cutting edge but you certainly create some very effective roms. My donation will be with you shortly.
Great job and thanks. Now for god's sake go out; its new year!
WB
BTW, is there any other tool for preparing cabs for auto install other than WinCE cab manager?
Some cabs take longer than the others to install, they will look like they are frozen but they will move after awhile (i.e. htc home). Also, the included TCPMP has a much nicer icon hope you guys like it. I should also change WMP's icon one day.
I'm not sure what else can you use to change the folder path, but if you have trouble changing some of the cabs, you can upload the files here and I'd have them changed. Also, do note that cabs that prompts an option after installation i.e. illumsoft screen capture will not auto install.
Yeah I'm taking a break now
EDIT: keitht, can you post up the fixed tcpmp? my copy works fine, maybe I used another copy from another folder (my pc is like a jungle here!)
Yeah, the TCPMP.CAB is hanging near end of install. As stated, it needs to be unmarked as Read only, tweaked with the WinCE Cab Manager and modified to not allow user to select installation directory, save, then mark as read only again and move to the storage card\cabs to replace original.
EDIT: Kin0kin: I waited about 3 minutes and it was still hung. After making the change above, it flew through the install without the hang. I recommend making this change and repackage the download.
EDIT 2: Attached is the modified CAB
This new ROM is a clean slate ROM and the first batch of my own cooked kitchen set with utensils et al, merged, sorted and built from scratch. With a number of speed tweaks to further increase the speed of this ROM, I've also added some enhancements like Auto Date/Time Picker from Cell site, Unattended Installation upto 2nd Boot, Full support for XDAUC with a multitude of user customization options. I'll be working on more mods and enhancements with future builds.
I need to mention that that I was earlier using l3v5y's kitchen for all ROMs before version GT1G and has been an inspiration and guide for some time now. Of course the likes of Da_G will always be in our mentors list.
I would also like to extend my thanks to Makeveral (incredibly efficient BsB ROM and his useful apps), Mr Makk (awesome tutorials), Ervius (kitchen) and yozgatg (packages and Android Bootloader) for their extended work in XDA, and last but not least, all users of my ROM who have given me valuable inputs and feedback, needless to say without which I wouldn't have been able to get anywhere with my ROMs.
Before I make this sound like an Oscars speech, here goes the latest ROM.

So folks, version K finally here after a long hiatus. K has some noticeable bug fixes, some minor new adds, apart from which it is pretty stable as always. Do note that there might still be some minor quirks (like some bottom icons not showing in the edit contact screen). Unfortunately I really haven't had the chance to look into them.
Amongst the noted fixes though, we have the scroll wheel working now, it skipped my earlier build for reasons unknown. The auto rotate which was never really in good books with me, works throughout the device now thanks to Zensor 2 which has been added as a UC option. There are other minor pieces which improves performance as well as an experimental game fix which I picked from the forum but haven't tested yet, which attempts to fix some of the games reported to not work. A revert on the OpenGL drivers should pay providence to some of the reported OpenGL apps not working too (although I haven't tested them either).
All in all this ROM should be a better ROM (not all that different though) than the previous ones. Let me know how it goes.

Lock Screen Bug
Slide to unlock doesn't respond initially and takes 2-3 seconds to activate on its own. - PF
Answering or Rejecting an incoming call (while the screen is locked) takes over 10 seconds to activate. - PF
Miscelleneous Bugs
(GT1e) Auto-rotate doesn't work in Album - it seems to force landscape mode - Fixed (UC) in GT1F
(GT1e) Auto-rotate doesn't work in Opera - this is set to portrait - Fixed (UC) in GT1F
(GT1e) In Opera, clicking on a Youtube link opens Album and then says not supported - Fixed in GT1F
(GT1e) In Titanium, Import Favorites button links to Opera 9.x and not 10, hence throws an error - Fixed in GT1F

Fix Schedule (LEGEND):
UC - Will be provided as a UC option in the next release
FF - Will be fixed in the next release (question my morals if I don't)
OP - Open Issue
PF - Partially Fixed
Workarounds:
Lock Screen issue:
Both of the above eventually do work, but its pretty annoying. Do note that Hard buttons for answer and ignore work as expected even if the screen is locked (during an incoming call). I tried playing around with previous build's lockscreens, editing some .cpr files, trying out tommy & mindfrost's fixes etc. (there are some more fixes available in the forum) and I've had some luck in getting this naggy issue somewhat fixed. At the moment I've used a combination of 2-3 methods to get it to partially work. It may not be 100% working, but there are some workarounds. Some of these are:
1) Volume Keys
While your screen is locked, use your volume up or down keys. The volume popup should show. Click the OK button. Your lock screen should be active now and you will be able to slide to unlock. After you have done so, lock your screen again, try and call back from your second phone. You should be able to slide to answer or ignore.
2) Bottom Left corner method: (suggested by fono)
This works almost instantaneously. While the screen is locked (and you wish to unlock it), click the bottom-left corner (not the extreme corner but just besides it), and then try sliding the unlock button (or answer/ignore buttons). It works instantaneously.
3) Password Lock:
This is simpler to do but not many of us prefer a password lock. Goto Settings-Lock, Check "Prompt if phone unused for" and enter a password. With this enabled, the sliders seems to work seamlessly for some reason.
4) Install Phone Canvas or Alternate Lock apps
a) Qilin Phone Canvas (download) OR any other
b) An alternate lock screen application (quite a few available in the forum)
I'll continue to look for a solid answer to this. Please feel free to advise me on the same if you find a solution.
Downloads (Apps, Widgets, Themes etc)
MSN Money (download) - two files in the .rar; Extract, Install the cab first and then run the .wgt file
Qilin Phone Canvas (download)
Ez21Settings Popup - for GT1G and later ROMs (download) (Note: GT1G does not have Ezinput installed by default. You will need to install the cab separately from Nikonz, Amarullz etc. This cab will only allow you to bring a popup to select Full Qwerty, Compact Keypad, Phone Keypad and Input Settings)

This is a known bug and seems to trouble most of the com3 and com4 builds with Sense 2.1 OR 2.5 cooked into the ROMs.
Try this workaround (this most certainly works):
Deselect HTC Sense from Settings-Home-Items, hit OK
Soft-reset[/B]
Enable HTC Sense upon reboot
If any chef has a better workaround for this in the newer builds please do advise. I've tried playing with the pagepool (currently 10MB in this ROM) but to no avail.

Unfortunately Sense (both 2.1 & 2.5) has this persistent uncanny behavior on COM3 & 4 builds. It takes far too much of resource space on the program stack. I've used a few ROMs for diamond with similar issues and the only workaround seemed to be the disable-sreset-renable method. For sure there is a better workaround to get this playing smoothly on the newer builds. I'll keep reading up and play around by pulling down some memory hoggers. I'm working on a reloc method as well to free up some program memory on the base ROM, which should hopefully give us some more breathing space on the Diamond.
Personally, I've never been a real fan of Manila. Not because the UI ain't good, but generally because it doesn't seem like a very efficient code base. Things can only get better though and I'll keep trying to make the experience better.
Can you tell me more about the applications you installed on your Diamond post flashing? I know for a fact that most video dialers take over 5MB of program memory and that eats up the already hogged up Manila's stack.
No additional applications were installed.
After the phone froze up a couple of times today (different circumstances; Had to remove the battery to get the phone back to life), I've decided to remove your ROM...
When it ran, it was very fast and looked promissing, so keep up the good work!

Noted! Thanks for the feedback prinsclaus. I've noticed a couple of freezeup on the mail client (poutlook) which needed sresets, but the occurrence remained unfrequent. Can you confirm that you used mtty before flashing?
Feedback
Over a 100 downloads and very few feedbacks received. Please feel free to post your woes guys. That's the only way I can improve on the ROMs.

I must admit I haven't done that, so maybe that would have saved me a lot of trouble.
Update!
Currently working on two new ROMs:
1) Lite (RaL.GT1)
2) Sense 2.1 ROM (23518Ral.x)
Both will be based on the recent 23518 build. I'll put them up sometime this week.
You should write the memory usage of your rom on the first page, my excuese if i didnt see it.

ROM versions with Dialer will have ~5MB less RAM at boot.
TouchFlo 1.2, and it's Call History tab are now CAB add-ons for the titanium ROM.
The TF3D 2.1, and Sense 2.1 Call History tabs were updated by me, based on the original work of Lucasjohny for TF3D 2.0. Calls made through this tab do not require an HTC dialer to function.
Known Issues:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Viewing Facebook updates from Contacts in TF3D 2.1 ROMs requires Opera 9.x for some reason (not included, go here).
All ROMs use more RAM over time, but usually stabilize. However, Sense 2.5 is a little piggy and can quickly eat all available ram in the Diamond.
Sense 2.5: attempting to adjust XT9 settings from Sense 2.5 will give "EzInputSettings missing error". This is due to using EzInput 2.0, rather than EzInput 2.1 packages (which are slower, and tend to swallow space bar presses for some reason). These settings can be accessed instead through "Settings -> Personal -> Input -> Touch Input Options".
Sense 2.5: Home screen app launcher seems to lose track of app locations at times. Removing icon, and re-adding it is a temp fix.

Frequently Asked Questions
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Q: Why won't "People tab" in the TouchFlo 2.1 and Sense 2.1 versions dial out?
A: Manila 2.1 People Tab requires the use of an HTC Phone Canvas. This uses between 5MB and 10MB of memory, so it is not included with all ROM builds. If you wish to use the People Tab, please install an HTC Phone Canvas.
Q: How do I activate "My Location" in Basics: Sense 2.5.2012?
A: From the Home Tab, click the Menu button. You can enable "My Location" with the bottom menu item. Then click "Update now" on the weather tab.
Q: What are Basics and RunCC UC and how do I use them?
A: UC is short for User Customization, and it is a method of configuring a ROM during the first boot after flashing or after a hard reset. The extent that you can configure the ROM will depend on the UC method used. Some abilities are listed below:
Basics UC: Allows easy install of CABs, registry files, and provisioning xml files. It will also restore PIM and Reg data backed up with UC_Backup.
RunCC UC: Can install CABs, provisioning XML files, TSK files, copy files, and execute other applications. Must manually create an "SDConfig.txt", and write an entry for each item to be installed.
More info on using UC below.

Click to collapse
How to use Basics UC: (Supported since ROM version 1.14)
I've put a lot of effort into making Basics UC as easy to use as possible. Currently Basics UC uses a file and directory structure like below. There is a ZIP archive in the ROM Add-ons download section, with the below setup and sample registry and provxml files for setting up basic options like owner data, phone settings, and email accounts.
A backup of all PIM, owner data, and power settings can be made by running "UC_Backup". This will create a BasicsUC compatible directory structure, and backup your info to "\Internal Storage\Recovery\Backup". It will also make a dated backup in "\Internal Storage\Recovery\Backup\Archive", in case you want to restore from a different date.
\Internal Storage\Recovery\Backup
\Internal Storage\Recovery\CABs
\Internal Storage\Recovery\Registry
\Internal Storage\Recovery\Scripts
If UC_Backup.mscr had been run before Flashing, all PIM, and Owner data will be restored automatically.
All ".cab" files in the CABs directory will be automatically installed to main memory.
All ".reg" and ".xml" files in the Registry directory will be automatically imported.
RunCC UC: User Customization
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Information about RunCC style UC can be found HERE. Basics ROMs will allow the use of "SDConfig.txt" in the directory "\Internal Storage\Recovery", in addition to the usual places.

Blazing fast. Especially when ive changed the pagepool to 18.
18!?! Wow... I usually stick with 10-12, but I'll have to try that and see how it affects things. =)
Thanks for trying it out! Let me know how it treats ya.
file error
hi,
I've downloaded twice the file Basics_1.02.21890_TF3D21_EZ21.zip and both times the .nbh file is corrupted!
can you upload again or check whats wrong ?
I think Mediafire was having some problems earlier. However I just checked, and sure enough, the archive on there doesn't match my local copy.
I'm reuploading the archive for TF3D21_EZ21 right now, and will update the link in the first post when it's up. Sorry about that.

Archive has been re-uploaded and tested. Give it a go now. =)
Is there a reason you avoided the later 6.53 versions? More ram? I like the idea but I've got used to the start button at the bottom now!

There are a couple reasons I like the COM2 branch. The main one, is that it's the most stable and optimized version of 6.5 out there. There are also a few applications I use every day that don't work properly under the 6.5.x branch. Now, it's mostly minor graphic glitches, but it also causes more serious things like the issues with the task manager requiring odd work arounds, etc.
Now, that said, some of the more recent 6.5.x builds have gotten faster. I've been following the dev threads some, and once I'm a little more experienced with ROM building, I may take a whack at it.
Was there a particular ROM configuration you've been looking for?

Yes, I think I'd like a UC-enabled fully WM 23529 rom. As if MS had built it. Including Transcriber, Solitaire, the nice looking new MS keyboard that comes with 6.53 (I think), Internet calling. All the stuff that MS provides with the rom and nothing taken out. Vanilla. As Nature intended. MS dialler etc.
And then the bare minimum of HTC where it's needed (anywhere?) like for drivers etc.
I can add most else (Opera, Album, YouTube etc) using UC and cabs myself and keep up with the latest software versions without reflashing. But I have a decent plain rom with all the things it's supposed to have already in it.
That's my ideal configuration. I might never flash again.
Thanks for asking and good luck with your rom developments.

Just tested it, and you are quite right. I guess that's the problem with releasing 4 ROMs at once. It's hard to give proper testing to them all. I'm cooking up a new version of the TF3D21_EZ20 rom as I write this. I'll test it out, and re-upload it shortly.
I've included the Qilin dialer with this build, as well. After a bunch of testing, it seems to be much more RAM friendly than the other HTC dialer options I've tested.
It can be easily disabled through Advanced Config, if you want to save the memory.
Thank you very much!
Another question (maybe a silly one), what do you recommend to enable videocall (Ram friendly too)?
Congratulations

New version is uploaded. I have to admit that I haven't really read too much on video chat, since my version of the Diamond doesn't have a front facing camera. However, I know the Qilin dialer I added is capable of it. Give it a try and let me know how it goes. =)

I'm on the last ROM (with qilin dailer) and have the same problems (no reaction from touch, but hardware buttons work) in the mail inbox as well as in active sync...
I really like the concept of this ROM, but like this it is unuseable for me.
Hope you find the time to fix it soon!

I like it too , but still some issues with dialer: i can, now dial numbers from keypad and make a call, but "end call" or "slide to answer" buttons are out of bottom screen. Can not make videocall, when i try i´ll go back to "Today Screen". Continue your good work.
