4.After you’re done, adjust back your Today settings accordingly.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

And so what happens, is that JD (probably) gets his drops upstream of many others ... before folks complete the build by hex editing the appropriate dsm file to (a) give the illusion of a complete build, or (b) avoid questions regarding an incomplete or out of sync xip/sys.

I only mention this, because most of the other 23569 roms out there have been hex'd at some point so that the xip version matches the sys version. If you are curious and want to confirm, go get the xip sources for 23568 & 23569 and compare ...

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

Thanks I was just about to ask how to correct set up owner info contact card was simple and worked out great :)

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

My active sync is stuck at 5 contacts. Anyone else have this issue?

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

Nope mine worked great, but I know I always had this issue b4 I jumped up to windows 7 on my pc I use to fix it by changing my usb to pc settings under connections, just click off the (enable faster data sync).. I admit I'm a rom **** and go through all only had this for a day and love it....:headbang:

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

I did that, nothing is going....i did the flash dance and all. In fact, it has never sync'd correctly with windows 7

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

Figured out the E-mail bug .... now just try to decide if I want to stay with 6.5.5 or downgrade to a non-beta 6.5.3

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

cool JD! either one is good. Great job on this rom.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

1. that is a very hard decision to make, on one hand I alway been more cautious [6.5.3] then curious[6.5.5].


2. but the geeker inside of me say "we are here for the latest and greatest"[6.5.5]


3. but you are the rom engineer and I think you are in favor of the [6.5.3] build.




my answer:
I'm going to be cautious and take your recommendation and vote for the [6.5.3] build.




JD thanks

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

Is 23120 the 6.5.3 build you are referring too? If so, that is great

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

Whatever build works for the Master Chef works for me.

2 ?s I have
* is there any way to speed up the transitioning from main manila to all messages in SMS/MMS , to individual Message. The lag kills me all the time. This is my experience with all ROMS, so no stab at this one. Im just throwing it out there to see if JD can resolve for all of us :)

*I'm spoiled with the COM1 windows contact card, with all info on main screen and notes tab. Are there any other COM builds that could have this same layout ? Just curious.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

New build will be 23121.6.5.3.6 in this build you will notice bold fonts in the on screen keyboard and phone app ... but these builds are what the OEM's are basing ROMs on at the moment ... I like 6.5.5 but I don't like having to use beta software so with that being said I will post a new ROM between tonight and tomorrow that has the email fix and facebook fixes (Thanks Vin)

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

Having a slowhead moment right now if you break this down for me I will take a look into what I may or maynot be able to do

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.5 ROM
 

i dont know if you have tested that build yet, but i have for 8 hours and it seems to have some serious memory management issues. 4 open apps would have me at 90% memory and after closing the apps with task manager and doing 2 level 3 purges with cleanram i was still in the high 80's. only a soft reset would clear the memory. if you are going to build on that branch i would suggest going with 23120 instead. much better memory management. 4 apps would close with task manager alone and would leave me at 60% and a soft reset would get me in the low 50's after boot.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

HERE is the newer fixed ROM based off of the 23121 build .... it has bold fonts in the dialer and on screen keyboard but is in the mainstream builds from msft so less bugs hopefully I may visit 6.5.5 again but I want to wait until msft release a SDK for it

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

JD why you trying to confuse me damnit....I was subscribed to the last thread....lol.....thx for the work bro.....will give it a run soon....

Thanks JD, I load up this ROM within the next few hrs. Thanks for the hard work, I love the last ROM. Sure I will love this one and keep a spare copy on my sd...

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

I was experiencing some major slowdown/lag after 24hrs on 6.5.5 Rom ... Im going to flash this 6.5.3 and report back.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

thanx jd, ill give this a go.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

Downloading now... sendspace is kicking my butt right now... slow dl speed this morning... I'll report shortly thanks hit...:mrgreen:

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

Thanks for the udpated ROM JD! Any chance of cooking a version with Cookie Home Tab built in? I know alot of people use it and apparently it works better when cooked in. Thanks!

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

been testing out the new rom for a bit and the memory management issue is there. at boot i am 95mb free. after 2 calls and a few cab installs i am at 75mb free with no tasks running. soft reset brings it back to 95mb free

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

whats the issue with memory management anyway? If its got 75 mb free, what does this mean? Programs will open up slower? Just curious, i dont know whats the whole dealio with the memory management

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

Having strange issues with resetting. On the latest (6.5.3) I lost the phone app. Hitting the call button or trying to launch the phone from the start menu did nothing and the signal icon in the taskbar was missing. I reset the phone (with the reset button) and it HARD RESET. The 6.5.5 one from the other day did similar HARD resets.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

odd but at the moment we are all on the same rom ... most of the time when i put out a rom i continue to develop until the next rom but since this is my first 653 rom sint the touch pro we are using the same thing i had ran this since it was created and have not had a hard reset issue this mainly happens as a result of an app that borks your registry what do you have installed

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

When you try dialing a contact by typing the name out, it will not show up in the call history as calling them. This is a recent problem i have noticed in the 231XX series, Icey found a fix for it, maybe talk to him about it, but Tmartin's rom also has this same problem.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

this seems normal to me. I have installed the latest rom as well. Pretty much any rom with sense 2.5 is going to be hovering in the 65 -75 mb range. If you start using certain processes and apps, it takes up memory. today I used the camera a good bit and reviewed the pics in htc album. Now that puppy uses alot of resources. Right now I'm sitting at 78mb with nothing open. recently sent a few emails though. Before doing that it was over 82mb. Still very responsive though. Video playback in certain formats can suffer if memory dips below 60mb but I usually switch to titanium when doing this, wait there's no titanium!! oh well :)

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

titanium is there i just hid it since i never use it i will post a cab for you when i get home to enable it ....

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

yep, nice find. same thing here.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

You know I never thought about doing that Riley.......great idea....going to be doing the same thing from now on......thx for the tip bro!:headbang:

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

i just happened to notice that the memory isnt clearing out like it should when apps are closed. even a ram purge wont restore to pre use levels. where in comparison 23120 seems to release memory when apps are closed with no need to soft reset or do a ram purge.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

Memory leak is dreadful....going back to JD's com1 rom for now

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

ok let me address this "memory leak" thing

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

thanx jd for looking into this.

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

no problem...you are welcome

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

All I had installed was Slacker Radio. Tried a different ROM - didn't install a thing - and have had the same problems. Now I'm wondering if there's a problem with my hardware. Trying the official Sprint update now to see if it happens with that. If so, it's time to call support to get a new phone!

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

wth, are you answering for jd now?

Re: JD's Custom Windows Mobile 6.5.3 ROM
 

Attached is the file needed to re-enable titanium for those that want it .... decided to go back to 6.5.5 seeing how the fix to get the caller id working in the 6.5.3 builds also causes cprog.exe to keep restarting thus causing the memory leak that was there. Going with build 23568 for now it reclaims memory a little better so if all goes well with the uploading a ROM will be posted shortly
