[DISCONTINUED] OMJ's HTC Sense 2.5 & 2.1 ROMs | WM 6.5 / WM 6.5.x | 21895 / 23569

[cado33055]

Hey OMJ im using Sense 2.5 6.5.3 28014 v1.1 and the album shows kind glitchy depending on which way you have the phone oriented. Either way you do it all the buttons dont show. but I like the new album with this rom wit the search engines and the rom in general

Hey OMJ, any chance you can get your hands on the Documents tab pkg or cab? would love to add this to the rom.

Thought some might find the following interesting.

Screenshots show possible Sense UI from HTC Espresso

Looks a lot to me like a combination of Sense 2.5 and Max Manila!

If i Click on the time in the corner a task manager pops up then goes away, causing the clock to do the flip thing??

I'm not seeing the same behavior on my Diamond flashed with Sense 2.5 6.5.3 28014 v1.1.

Signal meter and battery and sound icons on the top work for me. Clicking them brings up the 6.5.1 style magnified top bar.

Incredibly, clicking the clock brings up the task manager working for me as well, I haven't seen that working without glitches since I switched to 6.5.1. It doesn't just disappear, but instead stays up and I can interact with it to close programs and switch to view memory and storage usage. That's great, since we don't have Showcase anymore. Showcase was just a replacement for that for me anyway.

Clicking a missed call icon for me brings up the Windows Mobile missed calls dialog. Not bad, but I do miss the notifications view.

I think this is the most bug free ROM I've used since I started using 6.5.1. Only glitches I've encountered so far are in the Album, though the glitches I'm seeing are different than what cado33055 noted. When I click into the Albums, I'm in some type of Landscape continuous scrolling view, where the pictures aren't correctly lining up with the borders of the screen, and I need to scroll to get rid of black space and see the whole picture. Also, no apparent rotation of the pictures. Very hard to bring up the buttons as well.

Hi, I followed Aeropatel's steps exactly and clock still flips. I'm using Sense 2.1 28014 ROM. Only difference I changed it to be Sprint specific.

My storage memory seems to keep filling up. Anyone else experiencing this problem? I'm thinking its from the Opera 10 Beta cache, but cant figure out how to clear it. I looked around for a cache folder, but haven't located it yet. Anyone else having this problem, or know of a resolution?

Hey OMJ (happy belated b-day, was on the road for xmas and unable to get online)

just installed your latest 6.5.3 and noticed 2 things

I have an hour drive to and from work that I am a passenger, I play scrabble during this drive

1. I set the dim timeout to 1 minute to give me time to think of words, noticed that after a minute instead of dimming, the display just turns off

2. seems to be running a little slower, some lag somewhere, but noticed that the menus that pop up during scrabble are slow, and the computer thinking is slower when both were pretty fast on your previous roms, will play around with a few things to see if I can pinpoint it

I'm not blaming you or these 2 problems for me loosing 3 games in a row this morning, but I usually win and I think this lagging is allowing the computer to come up with better words and more time to think lol

Try moving your cache to Internal Storage, then delete the existing cache. The link below shows you how.

showcase causes freezing, so I wouldn't recommend it. I am looking at adding XTask2 from MOCEANWU's suggestion. You can also set the hold send key to open task manager instead of rotate screen....that works well. But if u insist, any 6.5.3 rom b4 28014 should have showcase.

Sense 2.1 Retractable Slider mod
Sense 2.1 BGMod (currently does BG4All)
Sense 2.1 WeatherWallpaperMod (allow animated weather over custom wallpaper)
that would work with
2.5.

I've only seen the BG4ALL mod on 2.5

you are referring to "Notification Enhancement", I see it's missing....will check on it.

The task manager should only stay open if u have running programs. Every once in awhile I'll click and it will stay open w/ no running programs, but usually it will close unless something is running.

well that was one of the reasons I switched to Album 3.2 for the Facebook uploading, but the downside is the picture alignment. To me it's very minor, hopefully someone will have a fix for it soon.

check task manager & make sure you dont have a bunch of apps running.....the downside to removing showcase is now programs are not closing on X. Using XTask2 should fix this

thx nosey!

1. make sure the suspend timeout is also set to 1 min, cuz by default it is.
2. check tsk mgr to make sure you dont have a bunch of apps running

[OMJ]

I made a cab for XTask 2.15 if anyone would like to try. This would be for the 28014 6.5.3 ROM. I'm using it to close apps on X. Seems to be working well. Reboot after install.
