Sorry - don't know what happened there. Try this SkyDrive Link instead.

SkyDrive is being really weird, so if you get a solid white page, this may sound weird, but try copying the url out of the address bar and pasting it back in again. If it still doesn't work, there's always the reliable MultiUpload, linked below. I swear, Microsoft is becoming less desirable as a line of products every day.

Just installed and the ROM looks great (and is by FAR the fastest I've used!) but I'm having a hard time figuring out my signal strength. The icon makes it very hard (at least for me) to figure out how many bars I have. Is there a way to change icons and/or do you have any suggestions?

Thanks again for developing a GREAT ROM!!!

P.S. Any way to add animated weather to the Sense UI on the home screen?

Fantastic. I'm glad you liked it, I really hope that this spreads quickly through whatever is left of the Diamond community so people can really "see the light" of Elite.

That's very strange. Mine will put a few "bars" on there, maybe you've got something stuck on the internal antenna? To be honest, I've never paid much attention to the "bars" because they don't really do anything anyway - in fact, I've wondered if it just displays different graphics for the "Bars" in random order, LOL! Could you maybe post a screenshot of what isn't working on that? Someone else said something about not being able to see the battery percentage, but I've never had problems with that myself. I mean, the original Windows Mobile taskbar has a lot of class, but so does the TSOWEN one, I just put it in there to "spice up" the ROM a bit.

Could you do it with a CAB? Maybe.
Could I cook it into the next release? Where there's a will, there's a way.
Question is, would you want to use it either way? I found that after getting rid of the Manila 2.5 nonsense (including the beloved animated hometab weather) that the device really picks up. If the weather is that important, you could move the weather tab right next to the "home" tab, and then it wouldn't be that difficult to get to. I know the fun of the windshield wipers over your appointments, missed calls, and the clock isn't there (I sometimes miss it too), but in the end I think the performance benefits.

Maybe you could as here on PPCGeeks in the Windows Mobile Software section about a CAB?

I think what he mean just like what I mean. You can make more color contrast between the bars/battery percentage and the background to make it to be able to read clearly. For example you can color the bars to be green and the battery percentage to be black.
Anyway I have been using your new ROM for a week and I really enjoy it. I feel the life of battery was improved, great job.
Thank you 2Bunny.

Thx!!! My brother Bunny ))) ..... testing right now!!!!! ..... P.S. In any case I will add some comments about new release. Any way thank you very much, 6.5 roms is killing me and my device already.

Just loaded this ROM and it is really fast! Kudos 2 Bunny.

I problem though. I can't get the email to work. The soft key and the Mail setup (in Settings) doesn't do anything so I can't setup any email accounts.

GSRchie · #7 (**permalink**) 08-14-2011, 12:14 AM

Nevermind I figured it out.

I'm really enjoying the ROM though!

Any idea as to why I am unable to set up mail accounts? I go to the mail tab and hit new account and nothing happens. Same if I go to the settings tab and hit mail setup.

BTW on Sprint Network if that matters.

Thanks in advance, love the speed so far, feels like a new phone

GS. how did you solve the mail issue?

Sideroad · #9 (**permalink**) 08-15-2011, 09:01 AM

Yes there are several small issues like the new account button in the mail tab and the add new contact features in the contacts tab. I tried to tell about these before but no one else seemed to know what I'm talking about. You can get around them by going into the start menu and programs and use the mail and messaging program, and contacts program.
I wish these buttons worked but a small inconvenience in an otherwise great rom.

I am LOVING the rom but I am having an issue with missing phone calls. It just doesn't ring (it rings like once) and when it does and I slide the cursor the the "answer" side the little tab just goes back to the middle and I miss the phonecall. Other than that, and the soft button issue that Sideroad is having, this rom is awesome. Super fast. If it can reliably be used to answer calls it would be a keeper for sure.
