The 3/7 Verizon ROM is still running great since the initial install. Miss having aGPS for Google maps since I use latitude but I'm patient. I've had zero lockups since installing this one.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Thanks Mr. Mack, glad it's running good for ya, couldn't have done it without your generous contribution :) Ya, now that all updates are done, the MH Updater upgrade and Gmaps autolock with aGPS issue are top on the list of things to work out.

Also, verizon 6.5 is now up, so all roms are up and updated. So on to working on things that i have talked about and mentioned in the last day or so. I hope everyone enjoys the roms :)

thanks bro latest rom is awesome my hats off to you bro !!=D>

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Thanks leoiden, glad to hear it. And i'm glad everyone seems to be enjoying this latest update so much. Always good to know the rom's turn out good :)


Also, after running the 21895 build for the last 24 hours, 23544 is definitely faster and smoother than 21895/90.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Well, you sold me.
I'm gonna give your 23544 a try.

Thanks

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Verizon 23544 is amazing! Best rom I have used so far. Though if I install Verizon provisioning the taskbar always says airplane mode but installing any taskbar fixes this. Also attempting to send MMS doesn't seem to automatically initiate the data connection (which also requires me to log in sometimes for some odd reason). Other than that this rom is perfect and just what I have been looking for :)

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Oh i didnt know that. This rom is indeed the fastest Tab scrolling in cookie that i have used. But it is also the first rom that i have used that didnt allow sprint tv to work. Oh well. Im sticking with it cuz I just love the fast tab scrolling. Also im from Orangeburg Sc and i see you are a fellow SC'er :headbang:

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

I think the airplane mode thing is an adverse effect of the vz prov cab and the taskbar. I had it happen once as well, BUT... it's not actually in airplane mode. If you go to your comm manager, airplane mode isn't really on, it's just showing it on the taskbar for some reason.

Yeah, sprint tv will be eventually fixed, just a matter of finding what in the kitchen is causing it. And yeah, South Cak, lol

Now that Dibbs has a VZW TP2, I am sure he'll crack at it :) -hints- =P

Can another Verizon user (might be Sprint as well) test USB tethering. I was in a pinch and needed to do it today and when you connect to a computer with USB and choose the 3rd option ICS shows disconnected and the connect button is grey'd out. Thankfully Wifi sharing works.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

is that on the 6.5 or 6.5.x rom?

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

about the sprint tv, i thought most roms have problems with it. and that it was all about how it was provisioned. i have read somewhere that people use mrX sprint provisioning on other roms and get sprint tv to work. i wouldn't really know though bc i have a slingbox :)

23544 still running great for me, and i have installed a ton of stuff and moded the hell out of it. will post pics and such later.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

if only it was that simple........... for sprint tv. Believe me when I say I have tried everything, and that even the PPCK developers are stumped about the issue.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Dibbs, why not ask indagroove, mighty mike, Mr x, jackdillard, rstro i have tried all their roms and sprint nav and sprint tv work without a hitch. I was just on rstro rom before yours and it works no problems. Still loving this thought SC

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Quick question....( I did a quick search and didn't find the answer, but I haven't read all 2000+ posts so I apologize in advance if this has been asked before.)

On the 6.5.5 ROM, how do you set it so that applications close when you hit the X instead of just minimizing? There was an option somewhere in setup on the 6.5 ROMS but I can't find it on the 6.5.X

Also, how do I set a non-animated wallpaper on the home screen. The only options I am given is weather (which is animated) and animated.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

because they don't use PPCK, they use VK variants, totally different. Like i stated before the people who made/developed ppck are aware for sometime and have been looking at it, just like i have. Since it's a kitchen problem, all those people you listed would be in the same boat as me since they didn't make the kitchen.

On the 6.5.x roms the only only way to do that was with showcase or ameba. But... showcase causes issues with security pin enabled exchange servers, and ameba is only used to close on x and is not really a task manager. I tried to get ameba to work with x2 task manager but no go. Believe me, I am one of the biggest advocates of close on tap of x you'll find, and when I find something that works better than what i have without screwing something else up inadvertently i will :)

from home tab, menu>home wallpaper>animated wallpaper and then select the wallpaper you currently have. If your using the black one, then just use a black 480x800 jpg

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Thanks for the info on close on X. I also missed the "Albums" option that appears when you select animated wallpaper.

So far looks like a pretty good ROM. I haven't decided yet whether I like the pluses of 6.5.5 outweigh the minuses yet. If I decide to stay with 6.5.5 it'll probably be this ROM. Nice job!

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Thanks, glad you like it :)

Dibbson have you tried arkswitch?

Yep, you must have missed that post last weekend I think on sat or sun. I just don't think arkswitch is there yet for me. I had some issues with it on 6.5.x. But i've got my eye on it though.

The Question of Memory? Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544
 

Dibbson or anyone else for that matter, I'm only asking out of pure curiosity because actually my phone has been running flawlessly since installation of 23544. What is your opinion on how much program memory is normal for a high usage, one soft reset a day and every 3hr CleanRam setup Touch Pro2? Mine starts with close to 90mb and after several hours it is down to 30+mb. I have that NoPushInternet .cab installed but I never know whether or not it even applies with custom ROMS. Are there any memory saving tweaks you've found to be useful that I haven't listed? Thanks Everyone in advance.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Hmm, interesting. I never soft reset mine (unless it's cuz i'm flashing a test build and that's not really a soft reset, lol), and I never use clean ram. And i never ever fall below 65 or 70 MB even with 6 email accounts refreshing every 30 minutes, and weather every 3 hours. How many apps are you leaving running all the time? Besides email and weather, I don't really leave any apps running, I always close them out. And I don't have push internet installed, so no need for that cab. Sounds like you got something going on, or either a whole bunch of apps running, as I doubt it would be that nopushinternet cab, but you can uninstall that.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

On the most recent MH ROM, I get ~90MB free RAM after a clean install. After setting up my corp exchange server, I've got under 80MB after a soft reset. The free RAM drops quickly after that and I rely on CleanRAM to keep me going between soft resets. Opera seems to be an especially large memory hog and free RAM is never the same after running (and closing) it. So I'd say that my experience is more similar to ryee34's.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Well, I'm pretty diligent about closing everything out immediately after using it via the upper right hand corner task mgr. I'll uninstall NoPushInternet and keep an eye on things. Maybe it was just something I did today. Otherwise, there's nothing I can think of that might be reducing it so much. Don't get me wrong, my phone still runs fine without a single "not enough memory" errors even after it drops significantly. I was actually just curious because free RAM seems to always be such a high priority. I'll keep ya posted. Thanks.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

Yeah, that darned opera can really be like a pig in a food trough with RAM. That's one reason I strictly run off of skyfire. Some people may say it's slow, but i'm always in such a good evdo area it runs really smooth for me, and waayyy better on the memory.

Here's something that will be on the first post tomorrow, but here's just a link for now as I didn't have time to get the verizon version done tonight. Lots of goodies, apps that were missing are back in, updater is back in, and one surprise app as well ;)

Yeah, I prefer Skyfire too. Did you have a chance to try the new YouTube app? It seems to run a little faster and have a much better interface. Thanks for the link too.

Crap, seems like something is off with the web browser in the updater, or either i accidentally cooked the wrong version. oh well i will fix/cook in the right one tomorrow. but enjoy the rest of what i did.

Dibbs,

Can you please include a cab for the former Tsowen taskbar please??

I like all of the colors and the round battery meter!

Love the ROM 23544 works great! Will pick up the 45 tomorrow!

Can we wear these things out by flashing them too much????

You are the greatest!!!!

Thanks

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

i don't have a cab for that, only OEM. And it's a good thing the updater had an issue with the web browser control, cuz it gave me an awesome idea i should have thought of to begin with, lol. Will fix it tonight. And technically, yes, you could possibly wear your phone out from flashing too much. But I highly doubt it will happen.

Re: The Question of Memory? Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544
 

Yeah, I got the same problem. I've believe the problem started in the 2354x series, and I don't believe it happened on any of the versions before that. I also noticed this issue on other custom roms using the 2354x series, in particular energy rom. Guessing it has to do with the newest SYS builds... in particular is seems gwes,exe eats up more memory over time and never really releases it.

Things to Note:
- Memory eventually settles around 30MB.
- Clean ram only frees up a few megs on a level 3 clean.
- All programs are closed out, and NOT left running.
- I have noticed this problem with heavy and light usage.
- Using Exchange, and that is the only mail account on the phone.

I've been running the newest arkswitch (1.1.2) with no issues in conjunction with ameba. I don't use the taskbar to activate it though i have it tied to a hard key and open it like that. With the latest ROM I've been experiencing the sleep of death, anyone else? I even flashed back to stock, cleared storage, flashed new rom and then cleared storage but to no avail. Other than that great rom as usual Dibbs

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

I occasonally experience the sleep of death every day or two on 23544. A soft reset seems to fix it for a day or so.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

No sleep of death for me, been running since it's been cooked with no reset, it is probably your ameba arkswitch combo as arkswitch has and can cause issues. I'm not saying that's it, but i have not experienced any SOD on 23545 or 23544. Although I also have zero extra cabs installed besides prov and mms.

It is funny you are that low, I am currently at 62MB and have not soft reset or used clean ram since I flashed this last night. But none the less, I'm gonna give you'll my long 2 or 3 cents about the RAM issue you are reporting, so here goes....

Back a few years ago when Vista launched, I had the privilege of being one of the MS representatives for the Vista OS launch. One thing that did for me was let me pose questions to the Vista Dev team. As I tend to tear apart a PC or MAC OS rather quickly when they come out, one of the first things I noticed was the way Vista managed, controlled, released, etc... memory. And one of the big irritation factors for me was the way Vista allocated memory from your main system RAM to your graphics card or lack there of (on board mobo chipset) or what ever the case may have been. As at the time, I had a brand spankin' new nVidia 8800 (powerhouse gcard at the time) with 512MB of on board video ram. So why would I need any extra RAM allocated from my system RAM to my gcard? Seemed pointless to me. So for a week or so, I went on a hunt trying to figure out why and a way to release the system RAM from my gcard. After not finding anything to do about it, I took advantage of speaking with the Vista dev team to try and find an answer. So I posed the question in a diminishing returns/bottle neck situation type of question. I asked what if someone had a gcard with 256 or 512MB of on board ram (which back then was plenty) and they had 1GB of system ram, and vista was allocating say.... 256MB of system ram to the gcard, Vista itself was taking up 376MB which would leave less than half of your system memory left for apps. You then proceed to run a few apps and the system RAM start to bottle neck (ie. reach 100% usage). At that point would the OS start to release the allocated system RAM that was initially allocated to the gcard to offset the extra load from the running applications....? Direct answer from the Vista dev team at the time was yes, yes the OS can release RAM and there was supposedly a built in percentage of system RAM of when it needed to start releasing more RAM from the gcard (and other non essential items), although it may not reflect that change in RAM under gcard properties where it showed how much system ram was being sent over from the system, mostly because of the way the pae system was so broke in reporting system RAM sometimes.

Anyways, long story short, this may be what they are doing with these new builds, as the 235xx series is a pretty active and experimental com branch. It would not surprise me if they were experimenting further with dynamic RAM control with a percentage based releasing scheme (ie. release the RAM when it gets to a certain point). This would also explain the lower RAM numbers but if you noticed as I did with the last couple of builds, the speed of the wm system improved drastically across the board. So I would not worry about the RAM thing, this may be MS just improving system speed by better dynamic control and releasing of RAM.

Re: The Question of Memory? Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544
 

I never fall below ~60-65mb unless i have stuff running. And i rarelly soft reset cause dibbsons rom is just that fcking cool.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

I have no proof of this but when i flash roms made from VK variants (like mighty) about 50% of the time I have issues with random hard resets, etc. On your roms and a few others I have NEVER had a random hard reset or even had to flash stock to fix a problem. I love it.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

yep same here, i'm not advocating this, but i never flash to stock either and never have random hard resets. One thing to keep in mind though, is if your on a rom that has a different page pool than the one your about to flash, that can cause issues if you don't follow a proper procedure. Also using vista/win 7 with wmdc and not flashing correctly can cause issues as well, as there is a preferred flashing procedure for that as well. I only flash my roms, as i don't have time to flash allot of other chefs, but I always manually put mine into bootloader to flash.

Re: <> 3-9-10 <> Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544 & 21895 <> MH UC & Provisioning v3.2
 

This almost occurs quote often, and a lot of times right after running the Verizon provision .cab upon first boot. I've not had it occur with running other provision .cabs and I don't add many mods to custom roms. Not sure what to say...

Re: The Question of Memory? Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544
 

I'm pretty much OCD when it comes to closing programs out immediately after using them. Let's be clear, my experience with this ROM has been nothing short of excellent. The last 36 hrs or so, my RAM usually settles around 44-45mb. I will note in support of Dibbsons hypothesis that even when it had dipped much lower, the performance of my device has never lagged. I was actually really surprised that I didn't get any "not enough memory" errors whatsoever. I simply thought it was curious. Either way, Medium Hill 23544 is THE MOST STABLE ROM I've tried, by far, out of the many I've installed.

Re: The Question of Memory? Medium Hill Rom's <> SYS 23544
 

I too usually run in the mid 40mb free ram (its much higher than this at first boot but that is usually what it settles to with all apps closed). that being said, i don't think it matters as dibbs pointed out earlier. in fact, windows will close apps for more memory when needed. that happens to opera on most of these 6.5.x roms, but i don't remember that happening to me yet on this build bc it is that good. :) I have had 1 sod in 3 days, but I don't think that is enough to start thinking its a trend.
