[ROM] [Sep 29] Psyki 4 - Custom Glass Manila 2.1 (23017.5.3.0)

[t0mmyr]

i didn't want this zip file to goto waste so for those few of you who want to have the original rhodium home screen with the call history button, flipping (animated) clock, and only 3 lines of appointments choose a clock from the attached zip, install, and soft-reset, please note you will loose the 5 lines of appointments in doing so...

p.s. theres a sweet looking clock in there too that i found last week, check it out

p.s.s. & if any of you are still having the old worldclock 1 hour timebug rollback issue (i've never had it with psyki roms) here's a little work around to prevent your time from jumping around on u:

1. open up the phone dialer
2. push menu
3. scroll down and push options
4. select services
5. scroll down and select time synchronizations
6. click get settings
7. uncheck time synchronize with mobile network...
8. click ok, ok, close phone dialer
9. goto home screen and click clock to open world clock
10. push add city
11. pick your state then city
12. click the little circle radio button next to your city to select it
13. click menu
14. click remove cities
15. check all the other cities listed and click done
16. make sure time is set right and then click done
17. soft reset then check to make sure the times stuck, should have no more time problems....

Wow, thanks for the detailed post, here is my first response and I will dig into your suggested fixes more later...

Weeelll... If you tap the taskbar icons you'll see the notification manager is somewhat broken at the moment so hopefully when I fix that your reminder settings will stick.

Really? I tested this a bunch and it works for me... Have you installed anything before running youtube?

I know what you mean and I believe that is an easy fix on my end...

It's the older version of youtube I'm using, I was struggling to get all the other packages to work I didn't even bother looking into the newer versions. I'll check out the cab you posted.

2b. comm manager bt works! WOOOHOO

That's weird, I just saw that too about settings tab->menu->bluetooth devices. At least comm manager bt works, you can always add your headset from there.

4b. couldnt figure out how to turn off sip haptic feedback, at first i was annoyed by it but after a while of using it its growing on me so i don't mind it anymore, but im sure it will come up later by other users and be asked how to turn it off.

Thank Deck for Ezinput 2.1, he provided me with the packages To disable haptic feedback try this registry key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\ezsip]
"FeedbackEnabled"=dword:00000001

I keep trying newer versions but as you may have noticed none of them seem as fast as the one I'm using. Can you give me any really compelling reasons to upgrade except "oooh! this one is newer and shiny!"

6b. i cannot find the mms options anywhere in my inbox (usually its way at the bottom as u scroll down in the menu softkey in jd's 5.2.1.22, am i missing something? i'd like to change my send limit to 5mb so it doesnt ask me to resize everypic i try to send
6c. how can i change the default location to save my picture mail jpgs to sd card? everytime i click a pic>contents>menu>save> it saves to device/my docu/my pictures, on another rom i was using it would automatically save to sd card instead which is what i prefer

This is JD's version of Arcsoft, do you have a link to another cab I can investigate?

7b. someone else mentioned this as well, cant see who ur talking to in call (except for picture) no number no name while in call, havent had incoming calls yet so who knows what else, have u thought about sticking some other tachi skin cabs in your manila mods folder?

Meh you're right, after looking at it some more I don't like the black skin either. I haven't seen any really awesome skins yet though, feel free to show me any you like

8b. when it tries to update the custom weather it says...No weather data available...doh!, i added a few more cities around here like palm springs (wasnt in stock database) and same thing, however los angeles and other cities that were there load weather just fine so maybe something was broke in the package u last used for this, i was real excited to have all the us cities loaded but they dont work

I didn't really play much with the new weather database but after you pointed that out you're right it's totally hosed lol. I'll try weathermaster 2.2 again...

9a2. under start>settings>connections>account manager what happened to youtube account log in? is there another way to log into youtube to access favs and stuff? all i see is for facebook

That control panel applet for the album facebook uploader only, not for the contact card facebook integration or the standalone facebook app. Btw the facebook uploader works...

Well it's a piece of cake to install whatever version you like, here is gadgetfreaks bear-bonz 6.1 taskbar http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...postcount=1181

10c. i really really miss the kinetic scrolling from 6.5, can you somehow cook in kinetic scrolling to this rom instead of touchflo? i know its possible cuz dcd had wm6.5 kinetic scrolling in both his 6.1 roms dcd.92 & dcd.96 i'm sure if u ask dcd he will tell u how he got that to work in 6.1, that would be awesome!!

Never heard of that but I have terrible luck getting chef's to reply to me *cough* nrg *cough*, heh. I'll pm dcd and see what he says.

what happened there at the bottom? just above update now and below the slider

It's always been like that, it's due to the fact that manila isn't supposed to have a transparent slider bar at the bottom. When I did the whole glass theme I learned just how messed up manila is when it comes to graphics, it overlaps things all over the place and has the most insane way to determine where to draw graphics, ugh, don't even get me started lol.

Thanks again for the post!

6.5 soon ?

I didn't install anything except for DCI battery gauge (which wasnt in the rom btw) & telenav (but i think i installed that long after testing youtube)

attached is the jd version i used in the past (probably the same one u got ahold of) but all i ran before installing that was the attached picturemail remover cab and soft reset, ill try doing the same on the new beta rom and report back tomorrow if i get the mms options again, im getting kinda sleepy now

heres a few i like (may need to ask permission to the right people to use them if u like them too)
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...49&postcount=1<--this ones probably my favorite if we could do away with the background and make change the talk button to green, but the shiny black does look real good on the latest energyrom (im pretty sure thats the one cooked in now)
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...24&postcount=1
& heres another http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...57&postcount=3 with more in that thread

i think we should coax CMYLXGO into this thread and get him to make us a beautiful psyki glass dialer he does some really clean graphics work

Pressing the "home" hard button doesn't take me home if I'm..for instance...on stocks.



*****fixed*****

So how's it running? I played with it a little yesterday, but had to revert to another ROM cause I really needed to make sure everything worked at work today lol

One problem I did notice was when in account manager landscape mode seemed to mess up. may want to check that out. it was off a fresh install, no apps installed.

[t0mmyr]

wtf, my phones been off the charger for 1 hour and it still shows 100%, lol...on energy rom the second i take it off from a full charge it drops to 96% instantly, lol...(not a complaint about psyki rom)

@brushrop03, i got a lot of trust in these psyki roms, it may only be 90% pretty at the moment (hey its a beta what do u want) but its 100% stable imho, i havent had to soft-reset for nothing and its still fast or faster than previous builds, i flashed during mid day at work yesterday and the rom worked perfect throughout the night for what i needed it to do


@psyki, just a request, for 4.0 final think we can get a new animated bootscreen, the old one is getting kinda old perhaps a new font too or ringer(s) u like

[AaronP220]

Working okay for me so far. Not seeing who's calling me is getting annoying though...

ok so i did the test, removed arcsoft then reinstalled via cab and viola mms option came back like i wanted it to. it also set it up so that when i want to save a pm it saves to my sd card by default

http://bayimg.com/PacDAaAcP
i dont know why the cab would install differently than cooked in so u may want to try installing it during UC to test?

i also tested out all the dialers i linked and the first one was badass however it has a black canvas and for some reason the text remains black so it has the same problem hiding the in call status. the next canvas is just as badass in white but actually it matches pretty well with the psyki theme and compliments the comm manager very well, heres some screenshots of it in action
http://bayimg.com/pacDnaacp
http://bayimg.com/pacdMaAcp
if u guys are having issues with dialer/ callerid try that canvas out, heres a direct download
the blue button dialer looks really nice too, but im gonna save that for my wifes phone so they can look different and since her fav color is blue. be warned though if u open landscape in call it looks fugly, but just close ur phone and it goes back to normal.

another thing i wanted to note is that after installing custom taskbar, the bluetooth connected icon still stays stock, how do i fix?
