1. Is there a way we can update the weather timing I know it was mentioned earlier but wondering if you found a way to update the timing. I've seen cabs for 15, 30,1 hour but wondering if that will work with your rom.

2.How do I change the softkeys in the home page ie. contacts to say phone. You said in hd tweak but I cant seem to figure it out. thanks.

3. If you restart your phone you lose the ring and vibrate setting (it reverts back to ring only). if you instal the ring an vibrate cab you lose the HTC volume control. goes back to the old volume control style could you look into this for us thanks.

Thanks again this rom is great and speedy loving it.

#1 in Post #3 I link to the the Weather update .cabs/registry changes. I don't know if they work or not in this ROM as I have not messed with it. I won't be changing the default since this only hurts battery life so I'll leave that to individuals.

#2 In HD Tweak, Section 14 TouchFLO 3D, 14.4 and 14.5 change those keys--I never tried myself but that's what they're suppose to do

#3 Yup, I know about it. Trying to find what causes it, but at this point I'm not 100% sure.

It is good, which is why I had put it in the late test release on Thursday (v1.1b)

Agree. The only thing I'm adding in a future release is the latest RSS Hub with full kinetic scrolling. Compressed it's about a 1/2 MB, so that seems ok. Plus I want to keep it as carrier-neutral as possible.

Next release will hopefully support Verizon & Telus. It'll have a few bug fixes/additional registry changes, a new background .tsk, CleanRAM 1.92. updated graphics for WM6.5 lock-screen, BT toggle for Action Screen (maybe) and anything else that happens between now and next week sometime, lol. But it'll mostly be minor tweaks on looks and a few updates.

Yeah, that's my feeling too. People should make sure they are using v3 of the HardSPL.

Will look into this. So far I know of 3 people that this has happened too. One of them tied it to Marketplace (believe it or not). I have never had it happen, but will do my best to see what could be causing such behavior.

Luckily it seems very rare at this point.

Sweet. Yeah I'm totally about you guys lending a hand here and there to make it better. I mean I can teach myself all this stuff, eventually, but on things like graphics, other registry changes that I don't know about, ideas on organization, etc. I'm all ears!

You'd have to replace the Manila system files with the original ones.

Haven't had any complaints about BT yet. Off the top of my head though I don't which version this is, just that it seems to be okay.

There is a new version of Google Maps, v3.3.1. Buuuuut it won't be added. That version has a busted AFLT (advanced forward link trilateration) aka Tower triangulation; it's like way off, we're talking by a whole state sometimes! This basically kills Google MyLocation/Latitude, which I use a lot. So until that is fixed, it'll be v3.2.1.

Same with Bing: new version is awful, so until it gets better, the old one it is (though you can install the new version next to the old one if you want).

[QUOTE=Malatesta;1437053]Huh, I know nothing of that feature but will look into it.

maybe i was specific enough..

ok so someone txts you that isnt in your contacts, itll just say *there telephone number* and txt message.

well in most cases if you tap on their number a popup with comeup asking call sender/add to contacts/and some other option.

but when i tap on the number with this rom nothing happens. just a minor thing, i could add it manually but for us lazy people it makes life easier =)

hope someone knows what i mean now and can help...

thanks again! hope you had a great christmas!

Is the away you can make the Calender on the Manila 2.1 show like the Manila 2.6v? I like how I can change Calendar views Agenda, Day, Week, Month, Year.

lol, it's okay, I got what you meant. I'm just not sure where to start looking to change that! It's not something off the top of my head I was familiar with manipulating, so I'll have to dig around.

AFAIK (and I've looked hard at that), absolutely not.

Wait what do you mean by make sure im using the right HardSPL? shouldnt I only have to do it once? I unlocked my phone on the first release when it had just came out do i need to keep HardSPL'ing it in order to make it work correctly with the ROMS? for clarity I have RhodiumW-HardSPL_V1_10R3_100HSPL which I used to unlock my phone. I havnt had that problem with any other ROMS, though with mighty's Project ROMS I did have the issue of the phone freezing and then when I soft reset it acts like it was hard reset and all my data is gone and does a first boot again. Not exactly sure whats going on, never had this problem with the 6.5 ROMS I ran or 6.1 just 6.5.x

There have been 2 revisions to the HardSPL since its initial release. There are usually reasons behind having updates and some of these were meant to adjust the code i.e. fix bugs.

A lot of the custom ROMs were having an issue where the device would spontaneously hard-reset (there's a thread on it) as well as some other associated quirks. Even I've seen that behavior on other ROMs.

In order to properly rule out extenuating issues and confounds, it is absolutely necessary that we are all on the same page i.e. we all have the latest HardSPL.

Once we know people are on that AND if they are still having problems, then we can move to the next level of diagnosis i.e. the ROM. This is just how science works. Otherwise I may be chasing ghosts.

To reflash with HardSPL costs nothing and does not wipe out the data meaning your current ROM is preserved. So there is ZERO downside from doing it as it only take about 10 seconds to flash. (Though one could argue that re-flashing the ROM after the new HardSPL would be even more preferable, since the HardSPL directly influences how the ROM is flashed in the first place).

Not having this issue on other ROMs actually means nothing since there is no way I can know all the dependent/independent variables (HardSPL, ROM, Settings, installed software, usage, etc.)

For all I know, you have corrupted data from the flash, which is why it is recommended to hard-reset after you flash a new ROM. Just saying, there's a lot variables here, I'm just trying to control what I can.

>>aGPS Quick Fix for all current ROMs<<

Even I goof once in awhile.

Attached is an aGPS fix for this ROM. Of course this will be fixed in the next release.

For now, just install this .cab and soft-reset. aGPS now should work indoors.

Thanks Mal for a fast ROM. One thing I have noticed between 1.1a and 1.1.b is the Zoom Bar has stopped working (Opera 9.5 and HTC Photo application). Could you include this is in the next update.

Thanks

Phil

Interesting, didn't even know it worked in the earlier versions (I never use it). Will look into it though, thanks.
