Should i add bioscroll to Artemis Vanilla 2.0? (Coming soon!)

I can change touch.dll and add a few files to get bioscroll (not the cube) on the new vanilla rom. It would not slow the rom down or take any free memory away.
What you guys think?

Add it
I can't think of a single reason why not, it is something I love.

Hi, I actually bought an XDA Orbit after seeing the excellent rom work that has been done here and I would definitely like to have that feature. Thanks

Yes,
All i want is a clean up to date rom, with GPS Photo and (bio)scrolling support. The HTC Home Plugin is very handy, but i can miss it.
I am sure if you make a rom which looks as the HTC original, WITH scrolling and GPS Photo support, lots of people would use it.
O yea, and please, dont make a black version... There are other colours, i like the Blue O2 premium you made, and used it quite a time.
little offtopic. Also, if there is a easy way (ala customizer) to put scrolling or other things in it would be great (even with a hard reset or something). Unfortunately its in the ROM (as ive been told) and therefore not possible(?).

what's exactly bioscroll?

Is BioScroll the thing which made my Artemis with your TouchFlo 2.0 ROM randomly scrolling up and down?

I say yes.
Maybe you could give an option to switch it on or off like Tom does in his ROM?

Well this is what i've done - disabled by default in true vaniila style - there is a smal cab in windows that enables it.
This stops having extra apps or control panels messing up the feel of vanilla
Total storage still 58.76mb and FAST as ever.

I can't wait vanilla 2.0 .I've very impression in vanilla 1.0 so much.

Also add the disconnect button when connected to the net via gprs

I never liked it much. My opinion is to remove it an give an option to install it later for everyone who likes it. Just as you said.
Good work man.

I agree to that also.

YES, keep it in 2.0.
With bioscroll, I can scroll with finger at anywhere with scrollbar. don't have to use stylus to scroll.
But I don't use cube often. maybe others do also.
Having Bioscroll alone without cube should make this ROM more popular.
Waiting for it. Thanks a lot.

Please leave bio scroll in - i loves it
Cheers

DON`t install it ...everything installable on a later basis should be left out, is what i plea for! ....leave it customizable

"installable"?
is it possible to install scroll function? sorry but i didnt hear about such possibility...
about all other programms - i agree as well that there's nothing should be. to have a chance to install a newest version every time.

any idea when?
thanks

Isn't it about time we had a new ROM made ?

I don't think I'm alone here when I say we need a new ROM. I'm thinking about making one for us. Any interest ?

This may be a noobish question, but how would it be different from the current ROM's that we have available?

not a noobish

what about built in diamond touch icons and features? like the clock and all that other good stuff? theres an idea to work with =)

I would personally like a rom without office mobile and orneta calculator built in as well as ricks extras folder. Have tried cooking my own unsuccessfully. Would go to kavanas rom but like the custom panels on ricks rom. If you are doing it then it would be awesome to have mini weather built into the rom since i'm a big fan of it!! Also you came out with a cab that adds a reboot option to shut down screen that i absolutely love, would be great if you could build that in as well org!!

I'm not familiar with the China stuff... but what's the advantage of having slim panels built in versus adding it to Ricky's or Kavana's ROM...? Does it take up less space? Is it any more stable?
Stats would like Miniweather built in as well, but is there any advantage compared to installing your cab to one of the current ROMs?
I'm not trying to shoot down ur idea... I'm just trying to wrap my head around the benefits to be gained from building everything into a ROM.
That being said, I'd probably be interested... I know for me it's annoying knowing that there's a bunch of crappy .png files (like *****X, for example) on my phone that I can't delete...

Great plan NRG
I can see your point in that since the last ROM's there have been many tweaks in appearance etc, to which could be made readily available from the ofset, including weather app would be cool, would be good if this was a project for all users so with your knowledge we could all get the ROM we want?
Mind you would be another outlay as i'd have to get another Dash the last thing i'd want to do is change the look i have on Dash

Hey yeah there is one benefit. When you reach 50 programs installed the remove programs list goes blank. It would be one less program to add to list freeing up a space for another program to be added without the above happening. Its just a personal request as well, seeing as org is thinking about doing it it makes sense to me to have his great weather app built in.

I like the idea because Im a modder..... I wanna try new ROMS, new ideas... bring it on!

I like Ricky's rom, and have been using it for quite a few months now. It does everything I need and more- but there are a couple things I would change.
-Multiple keymaps, for excalibur/dash/different language keypads
-undo the shortcuts back to original, so the ie button goes to ie, etc
-default a wallpaper in the call screen for an alphanumeric converter, or find a way to make it work properly like Tmo did
-Some sort of a reboot shortcut would be awesome! Even better- a program that reboots for you every day at a specified time
-am I the only one that constantly needs to close programs and free memory? If not, a shortcut there would be nice too!
Thats all I can think of, adding more neat programs and such is such a double edged sword- some will love it, some will hate it. Personally, I would like to see a weather program and I always load Live search and google maps, but others may just prefer to have more available memory. It seems like I have to go into celetask and stop everything, then run the free memory program twice to get enough memory to run skyfire

Are dash roms capable of UC? If they are, that would be way to go on many of the apps people are requesting.

ooooo! that would be nice!

im in... im all for it..

With out a doubt
id be very interested to see how this rom turns out you should make it

I would say man if you got the time and will power to make it go ahead. I am really interested in the outcome of this new rom.

is it done yet?

wmp
what about replacing wmp with a stream compatible player ?

Cooking....
NRG,
Looks like you got the thumbs up from everyone, how about a thread on what we would like to include in the ROM, software sugestions, tweaks etc, i'm sure all of us could provide you with resources towards your new ROM cook.
stylez.

the joke is on me
but i think it might b useful.

Windows Mobile 6.5 for Hermes?

Check it out
When can we expect this for Hermes? Says HTC have already got it running, perhaps we can get that ROM and customise it for Hermes?

Already has been. Josh Koss has a 6.5 hybrid as well as Tai_sw. Both of which seem REALLY stable...
Cheers...

Sweet! I'm blind sorry
Looks like Josh is up to WM 6.5 Test 4. I might wait a bit longer till he gets a stable build out.
Can't understand which Mobile 6.5 of TAI_Sw's to download??? Prefer Lite ROMs as they run faster.

Ive been running Tai_sw's non ui rom 21139, very stable. Josh's v4 is also very stable. DIfferent Ui than normal today screen. If you don't have too many extra apps installed would suggest trying. V4 has been out for about a week already.
Cheers...

yep it's not production like direct from htc or anything it's very beta and provided from beta sources.. but we're doing the best with what we got

a little dev idea
Hey Josh, been using the 6.5 for a while now, a little diff to get used to but runs very smooth, 1 thought though, would there be a way to split the honeycomb interface into panels that would slide sideways.....ie, the first panel might show the tools icon, file expl icon etc, then the next panel might have the display settings icon and messeging icon, etc.... it could slide up or down or sidways, would not really matter...........just a thought, might involve too much programming, but would navigate much easier than the current flick mode, thanks for any thoughts

WM 6.5
Josh,
First off I want to thank you for the awesome ROM's you throw out there
I was wondering, are you going to post a WM6.5 ROM with Manila 2D, instead of Titanium?

gimme gimme gimme! Gonna test it and will feedback!
One question though: why does it say 6.5_test3.7z? You stated that test6 is under way?

Results:
Once again I have to mention that I'm not sure which test version this is, but anyways here's what I got so far:
1. The screen is going off for no apparent reason.
2. It's very slow when opening menus. (takes like 4-5secs to open)
wow all the content from the start menu just went on a vacation, nothing's there
and now it's dead! tried almost everything it just wont work.
sorry that I can't give U more info, I'm going back to a stable rom!
Hope to see a more stable test version and I'll give it a another run.

Nowhere. There is no original

windows mobile 6.5 is a beta so it doesnt have an offical release some chefs have been using the builds of it in their roms so the only way to get it at the moment is to use a cooked rom that is running 6.5

But, if you find it then let xda know

Homescreen Calendar - Show Appointments More Than 1 Day in Advance??

I have searched and found this question asked several times but never answered. Can someone please show me a way to make the homescreen calendar show appontments more than one day in advance? Like maybe a week or two? I have seen this action included in .cabs that change other aspects of the homescreen, so I'm sure that it can be done. But, I dont want to change my clock, font, background, or anything else on my homescreen. I have it looking exactly the way I want it. I JUST want to see my appointments for the upcoming week instead of just one day in advance. Can someone please point me to a .cab or a registry setting or whatever will do this?
TIA
If it makes any difference, I have a Verizon TP2 with stock 6.5 ROM and Sense 2.1.

I had the same problem...
I used Cookie's home tab to solve it... but that's sense 2.5
check out the themes, there are multiple solutions

I use TodayAgenda 1.5 on my home screen to display my upcoming appointments and tasks. The software is a free download on the Manufacturer's website and there are a lot of tweaks you can make to the display. It's the only software I've found to display both pieces of information in the way I want, I just disable the default calendar and tasks.

You could download latest factory ROM from htc and flash that if the custom ROM aspect troubles you. You would still want to back everything up first but there is no need for HardSPL etc.

You can upgrade the TP2 to sense 2.5 from an HTC ROM? Will I lose any T-Mobile custom stuff?

Ok, I checked out TodayAgenda and the website doesnt give a lot of specifics. From what I see, I have doubts that it is going to work on a Sense 2.1 homescreen. The program hasn't had an update since 2008. Does it work with Sense? I dont want to have to disable Sense and use the regular Today screen.

Hmmm, had a look at the t-mobile support page and the latest official ROM from them is still Sense 2.1; so going the official route looks like no-go.
Another option is at on this forum - see forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=661941 - have a look at the 9th post onwards.

Also, does anyone know if there is someplace to get all the Verizon add-ons in one place? I have found the complete stock ROMs, but nothing with just the Verizon stuff to install over a factory ROM. It would save a lot of time over searching for each add-on individually...if I can even find it all, lol. I would like to keep my ROM as stock VZ, just with 2.5. Any other programs, reg edits, customizations, etc. I would prefer to do myself...and I actually use some of the VZ stuff.
