Any harm in that?

THanks

that's how it's done. Only danger is having to do it 3 or 4 times in a row to get the phone exactly how you want it. Just have fun. If I can do it ...

Hey Calk. I believe the problem must be with something you changed in 4.6.4a. I built a ROM with 4.6.4 and previous versions of 21501 and the TP2 keyboards worked. I would get both the full qwerty and phone keypad options. On the newest one (4.6.4a) when i install a tp2 input (savage, nikoan89) the full qwerty part works fine, however in the input menu there is no option for phone keypad.

I am still experiencing the no ring problem and I tried disabling Flip It with no help. I am using the TP2 4.6.4 ROM. Any fix?

Has anyone come up with a solution or explanation for the Bluetooth icon not showing up without the HTC dialer. The delay in 6.5 that the htc dialer causes has forced me to miss a couple too many important work calls. So i am going to use the stock dialer, but it's a little annoying not being able to look and see if BT is on or not.

Thoughts or solutinons for fixing this going forward?

More like 30 to 40 times...hahahaha

By the way I think i've finally figured out the ringtone issue. First I transfered all my mp3 clips to Wavs. I built a rom using 4.6RC3 with 21042 SYS but I used the old ringtone app from 4.1 but I kept the 4.6 volume control. I put all the ringtones in the My Documents/My Ringtones folder instead of in the Windows folder (i'm using the internal storage because of space reasons (works great)). Everything seems to be working great. I think it may just be the fact that song ringtones need to be in the form of WAVs. When i upgraded to 4.6.4a my S2U2 was so sluggish and sometimes it would take up to 4 seconds for my screen to turn on, the home screen would come up first then after about a half a second S2U2 would start. I always use original manila just because its simple and it works great (plus im kind of thinking that what is "supposed" to be on the phone). I was gonna give up but thank you for eveything Calcu. I was just gonna go to stock but it isn't the same.

Ok, so I figured out the problem with the Bluetooth icons -

There are actually TWO bmps that WM 6.5 uses to display the BT & headset icons on the Transparent home screen. One is the standard file, i.e. "BT On Mode.bmp", and the other is a background file, "BT On Mode Mask.bmp". The Mask file is the negative/transparent background of the regular file. The Mask files will need to be provided along with the other files in order for the BT top bar icons to display correctly on the standard transparent home screen. Otherwise, the system will use the previous (stock) Mask file, which cause the distorted image.

P.S. I think this might only apply for people using the HTC Dialer, since those files are found in the same package as the Phone Canvas.

As an addendum to my previous find, I believe that a side effect of anyone using the stock WM6.5 dialer along with tsowen's of 12aon's taskbars will be that the Bluetooth icon will not display in the taskbar.

The reason for this is that each of their taskbars includes phcanOverbmp.dll, which seems to override the BT icon info in the shellres.192.dll. This dll looks for the BT icon bitmaps in the \Windows folder (both the icon, and the Mask background file), and in the absence of the Mask bitmap, on the standard home screen, no icon will be displayed.

I can confirm this because I tried deleting the "Mask" bitmap files prior to cooking my ROM, thinking that it would just use the regular bitmap files, but instead, I have no BT icon show up on the top bar.

If you are not using the HTC Dialer, I recommend following tsowen's suggestion regarding the battery icons. This may also correct the BT icon issue, since I don't think those bitmaps are part of the standard 6.5 install. Someone who is using the stock dialer will have to test it, though.

So maybe its a good idea to have 2 separate taskbar versions after all - one for people using the HTC dialer (including phcanOverbmp.dll), and one for those using the stock dialer (using phcanbattery.dll). Of course, we still have to work out all the kinks, yet. But progress is definitely being made .

You need to change your nueDynamicClock settings.
