oldgarfield -- lots of helpful comments here in your posts. Thanks!

I've not had any ringer issues with MAL's 2.1 ROMs but I think others have. I think MAL had a pre-2.5 release that had some ringer issues but may be confusing this with other ROMs.

I agree with comments about notification manager. They're too much in the background on this release.

Mal Love this rom, been over a week now cant get it to lock up, never realy need to softreset, I got mms to work stable with older Arc software.

BUT I cant get notifications manager to work, doesnt even show it in the registry, I have tried all the notifications cabs, none work I tap on task bar and nothing happens, when my alarm go's off I have to go to alarm turn off then back on, can never get A drop down menue to dissmis all. If any one could help that would be great because even though I have this problem, willing to stiill use rom because of speed and stability.

Same here. That's why I reverted to 6.5 +2.1.
Stability, Speed, Battery Life. Everything is nearly perfect and with a few tweaks its beats all other ROMs.

All of a sudden I can't get the phone to dial any other way than manually entering the number and pressing "send". If I try to tap on a number in the contacts list or call history, it will light up when pressing the "button" but will do absolutely nothing. I can hold down the button and it will stay lit as long as I hold it but just won't do anything but light up. Anyone heard of this before? I'm probably going to have to do a hard reset at this point, I'm afraid. I'm using 6.5.3 +2.1

Never had this problem on 6.5+2.1. Didn't have 6.5.3+2.1 long enough to experience this either. Since it is "all of a sudden", did you install any programs lately or did some modification on registry etc.?

Once I suddenly found that My PC cannot recognize my phone. And later I found out that one my registry hacks did not work. So I just recovered from a registry backup and the problem is solved. This may not be your case though.

I think I'm gonna have to nuke it (hard reset) and start over. I'd prefer to wait for a new version, though. I hope Mal has one soon. I'd hate to go to another ROM :???:

You can always go "shopping" elsewhere to see what's out there just for haha's and to see what's working and what's not (especially if you're gonna nuke it now anyway), as I've gotta believe that if others are using certain builds currently while Mal's on his vaca in Spain and watching people sleep when he gets back, that when Mal updates his ROM's, he's prob going to be using the equivalent builds, especially if they're stable. I subscribed to Mal's tweets so as soon as he's back building, I'll know about it.

Running the 6.5.3 ROM with Manila 2.1 and it is the fastest ROM out of the handful that I've tried.=D> I'd almost venture to say that it is nearly perfect except 2 things:

When on speaker phone and I plug in headphones: I lose the mic built into the phone. On every ROM prior to this I've been able to use my CD cassette adapter in my car to broadcast my caller through the speakers and it would pick my voice up through the mic in the phone. I can hear my caller, but that person can't hear me. Same holds true when plugging in a stereo wired headset with mic, its the 4 pin 3.5mm jack kind.

The other thing is Windows Marketplace not working, it installs but doesn't connect. This really isn't a big deal to me though.

I never had that issue with headphones, I could just listen through the headphones and talk without problems. As far as marketplace, that site is always up and down, on every ROM I've ever tried. And yes, this was the fastest and flawless 6.5.3 2.1 I used. Hoping to continue that when Mal gets back!

Actually I have been having this problem (headset jack) with mine as well. I don't think it's the ROM or even software, though. I think the headset jack on this thing is a piece of crap.

I'm so happy with this ROM that I'm inclined to just hard reset and use the same ROM. One thing that makes me reluctant to change is that from what I understand this is the only ROM that works with IGo8's text to speech. I know for a fact that TTS did NOT work with Mighty Rom ,but Malatesta's do.

I've had similar problems, but this is typically just a long delay. If you go back to the sense calendar after waiting awhile I think you'll find the entry there. Can you confirm?

Got a question: For some reason my menu in landscape has changed to 3 row smaller icons instead of the larger icons in the 4 row arrangement. Happened once before and a HR did not fix so I reinstalled the ROM. In both cases this happened after opening the photo option in Palringo. I won't do that anymore, but is there a way to go back to the 4-row large icon menu without reinstalling the ROM? I am running the 6.5.3 + 2.1 btw

Are you talking about WM 6.5 start menu? I am not exactly sure what your want your menu looks like, but the control of the honeycomb menu view settings are located in two files

StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr
StartMenu_GridScene_480x800.cpr

under Windows directory.

The content in the file is pretty easy to understand.

Hope this helps

Copy this file to your PC using ActiveSync or whatever, then edit it on your pc and then copy it back. You can also edit directly on your phone and it's very simple. BTW, I am using MalROM 6.5 +Sense 2.1 if that matters.

For example, my opera6.adr content is like this:

Opera Hotlist version 2.0
Options: encoding = utf8, version=3

#URL
ID==1
NAME==PPCGeeks
URL==http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=97

#URL
ID==2
NAME==Dealsea
URL==http://dealsea.com

My Bookmark left soft key(Internet Tab) is back after I changed default browser to Opera 9.5.
So now the bookmarks listed in the Internet tab are the same as the ones in my opera browser.

Thanks as always. I located the files, but do I need to use a registry editor to correct it?

No. You will need to copy the files to your PC and use a text editor to change the content. Then paste it back to Windows folder. Make sure to backup the files in case of wrong settings.

o.k. first noobie question (to this ROM anyways)
1. do you always have 17 processes running in your task manager?
2. is there a clean RAM type program (i've used oxios for years) that will free up RAM without messing with these?
3. Should I have 17 processes running in task manager?

p.s. i am using the titanium only version of 6.5.3

Answering question 2: If you're using Mal's Titanium only 6.5.3, cleanRAM is already cooked in. Should be there in Start Menu, and cleanRAM config settings are under Settings/Sytem. As far as the processes go, I'm not sure.

found cleanram. oxios did a better job, though it might have closed something it shouldn't have! no problems so far. still reconfiguring the start menu and getting all programs on there.
think i need to learn how xda_uc works.
very fast so far. and hasn't froze on me!!!

Ok, 24hours or so later and this is by far my favorite ROM. very fast and seems very stable, no freeze ups to date.
only question is: is there a way to stop getting the backlight to dim after 15seconds. went into power settings and unchecked all boxes which should keep backlight on all the time screen is on, but it still dims, just doesn't time out.
what program is running that is making it do this and how can i disable/ uninstall it? then this would be perfect.

What other apps do you have loaded? List them up and we can then try to narrow it down. Also, which ROM are you on?

I wanna like this rom, but it freezes sometimes on boot up. Today i go for my normal daily reboot and it would get hung at loading screen. Sometimes it would eventually boot up, but all my installed files lost and it was like i did a hard reset to clear everything which i didnt, just removed the battery.

Are you using ghe latest updated HSPL amd did u flash nack to stco, clear storage the flash Mals ROM, clear storage again and set up then? If not, try that and let us know if it continues.

I actually like the original SPB theme better. The sense theme is better looking, but efficiency wise it is not as good as original one. For example, I can access my contacts with one click, but with this you will have to click twice. Also it seems to increase the memory usage significantly.

I totally know what/how you feel, but I've been running Mal's Titanium ROM since his Jan 14 release and haven't really encountered any issues (small display glitch with the game "Flight Commander" makes it almost impossible to play, but nothing I can't live without). Smooth, fluid, and plenty of memory to throw whatever you want at it. The damn things just works!

i tried formula's titanium ROM with that sense mobile shell cooked in and it would freeze up trying to open skyfire. only had 40-50mb free memory at startup where on this one i get 90mb.

ok, backlight issue was not an issue. for some reason after i unchecked all the power savers, it turned them back on. now they stay off.

figured out it doesn't like PIE 6.1. caused email and text messaging to be unable to compose or open messages.
wanted pie 6.1 to use mobile shell fb and twitter widgets, but not the end of the world.
only 2 things i have had "problem" with. top taskbar disappears sometimes. it is still there (you can click on where it should be and it gives drop down menu), but you can't see it. soft reset fixes. it has happened twice.

other thing is memory loss somewhere. after a few hours, i'll be down to 60-70mb memory from 90mb, clean ram on lvl3 and oxios both help some, but don't recapture all ram. not sure what is using it, but there doesn't seem to be a slow down of processes so not a big concern.

p.s. anyone else having slow text messages? like you type and then 3 seconds later it starts printing on the screen?
