Duttys HD V1.8 XTREME is out, anyone tried that yet?

I saw the download links with postfix "_test", maybe wait a couple of days for it to released as completed ROM?

Hmmmmmmmm.............

found one suspicious problem with the new Radio - the Garmin Mobile XT's GPS signal bar doesn't really show the signal strength, although GPS functions properly. :S However, improvement - WiFi is BETTER!!

Yeah that's right, this problem isn't that critical but hmmp! still not perfect.... hmm.gif

Today I tested the GPS while driving. There are places the GPS dropped satellite signals, which did not occur with 1.10 or 1.09 radio. sad.gif Another downside of 1.12  sad.gif Well, I will reflash back to 1.10 and see if the same reoccured. Maybe it's due to weather, thick cloud??  hmm.gif

Another few problems found -- HTC Album. Use camera to take a snap photo, it takes a very long time to save... but... it didn't save at all, searched through the whole memory and storage card, no new photo found! sad.gif The other problem is, album orientation - a landscape photo appear as full-size portrait in portrait orientation, but appear as envelope size (with black bar at left and right) in landscape mode. And vice versa for portrait photo!

Anyone know the fix(es)?

Which cooked ROM are you using with all the camera issues? whistling.gif

Sorry to hear Dutty is actually leaving the xda forum for good!!!!
At first I was sympathy and fully support the few guys who started the dispute/chaos, because I thought to myself: without Davideuck ROM I still can live with Dutty ROM.

Then!!! They start to blame some other cook (Dutty) for not sharing the rom he has, WTF!?!?!? All the flames are nonsense and I couldn't believe what the fuss is about. Now they're actually making xda the worst place to go, they sound like wanna ask all cooks to discontinue their work as a boycott action.

So general users like me would feel great IMPACT for not getting a decent cooked rom from now onwards (until there is new cook under a different name perhaps). it's not wise to support either side at this critical moment but that's it, prepare to lose half the fun for cooked roms!!

I just started to enjoy rom cooking and was awaiting Davideuck v6 and out of sudden everything was ruined by someone. That someone who accepts the money is to be blamed but why involve other cooks, haiz. Sad week, if you could do me a favor that would be which rom are you recommending thereafter, I only know the best roms so far are by Dutty and Davideuck's unfortunately they will no longer continue their work, afaik.

I go for Davideuck v6 ROM, it's much better but actually I prefer "Touch of HD" v3.3.3 because it's the cleanest ROM I've ever tried, however there is a tiny bug that I can't compromise, so......have to change rom.....sigh.......

spaceman, what bug you found on "Touch of HD" v3.3.3 ?
*
I can't install Garmin XT from pc to HD, it was stucked in the end of installation with error "autostart.exe failed", I wouldn't know if it was an issue with the preloaded tweaks by "Touch of HD" rom or what. Other than that, it's a great rom, fast and stable minus all the junks wink.gif

Now I'm settled with Davideuck's v6 rom but I don't like it's preloaded with older version of CleanRAM (0.8) and ClearTemp (1.0.2), hmm!! If I ever want to upgrade, there would be two versions preserve on my HD (because the preload version would be in the rom and can't be removed/replaced, correct me if I'm mistaken).

Personally I don't like the new manila (V-1_HP or dutty v2), because it's much slower and mostly due to I can't use the background4all hack on this new manila, I have seen reports some 3rd-party programs don't work either....how inconvenient.

What do you think? kylinlee? maesus? daneva? biggrin.gif

Thanks, will be flashing to Dutty v2 soon after so many positive responses biggrin.gif

Hi Kylinlee,

It seems that we have problem only to our HTC HD when we use new manila.

You see, my problem is I cant delete Call History (only can delete using "clear calls log") and
the call duration is only show up to minute. If call lasted 1 minute 33 sec, it only show Duration 0:01.
And if 25 sec call make, it show Duration 0:00.

I checked around and no one has this problem.

So bye bye to New Manila  whistling.gif   But I like the new calendar  cry.gif

Hi guys,

Since you're always facing these problems even after flashing to new roms.
I've seen similar issue/complaint in xda.

What they suggest:
-try to flash to STOCK ROM first (eg. 1.19), then flash to cook rom of your choice again.
-don't install any third-party apps (eg. CEStar)
-check if you're still facing the same prob with new manila.

Good luck!!! thumbup.gif

Tonite I'm going to flash to Touch_of_HD_BS_3.3.4 [Mar2]. Had tried 3.3.3 and the thing I like most of this rom: it's free of any junk or outdated apps minus the official junk by HTC too! So I get to install my own apps on this clean rom. Did I mention it's fast and stable? LoL.

Wish me luck, hoho!!

Hi kylinlee,

After more than 1 day playing around with new rom (Dutty V1.8) and Radio 1.10, I feel that the speed is faster
and less hang and the issue with "temporary no connection/no network" is no longer there.

I like the new calendar the most, much much better than the original HTC HD.

But I have one small problem where in people tab, the photo is blur, do you or anyone
face this and what is the solution?

Also I found that 3 sec delay still there, so I need to reinstall the patch for this.

Note: Those who still have doubt to flash new rom, my advise is go ahead, u will feel the different.

Cheers,

Daneva
Hi Daneva,

Mind to share which cab you're using to solve the 3-sec delay ringtone on call??

Thanks ya!!!!! drool.gif

I noticed that sometimes when i turn on the screen, the phone beeps and displays that there is a new SMS. The problem is that the SMS received time is not the current time (i.e more than 30 minutes or even few hours ago).

It seems that it does not always ring when a new message arrives. If i'm not mistaken, this does not happen on all newly received messages.

Maybe it will only ring when i press the power button to switch off the screen, but will not ring when it is left alone to standby by itself? Just a wild guess.

Anyone encountered this problem?

Hi there,

Try HD Tweak there is an option to "WakeUpOnSMS" or something like that, set it to "enabled" (it's disabled by default).

Cheers!! biggrin.gif


Added on March 4, 2009, 5:58 pmJust want to ask all, are you settled with the BIG flip clock comes with TF3D?? I do not like it so installed Max Blue Theme which reduces the size of flip clock plus a analog clock.

However I wish to go *further* to eliminate the flip clock altogether, leave only the ANALOG CLOCK in the center (sort of like Android's appearance tongue.gif). Anyone has any idea how to get rid of Flip clock on cook roms??

Your help is very much appreciated. Thanks buddies!!!!!:D

Yo, I've flashed my HD to Dutty 2.1 Xtreme. It's quite nice and so far no problems found smile.gif New manila v3 is very cool and the speed of bootup also improved alot.

I've also installed so many mods to this rom because I decided not to change to new rom again so soon (FYI recently I change rom too frequently like everyday 1 new rom lolz). below are the few mods I've installed to make my HD better:

-Max Theme (background4all, analog clock etc.)
-LockMeLite 1.2
-HD Tweak 0.5.4
-CleanRAM 1.0.6
-Touch InCall Screen Tweak - v1.0.4
-sunglobe, ZTA4 (Chinese input/display)
-Modaco Nodata
-etc @@

I'm too excited to show these screenshots, notice that background4all works on all tabs that's why I'm settled with new manila v3, yay!!! biggrin.gif

Look in windows\welcome.192.png you can copy this from other rom and replace it in dutty rom, voila! you get back the dull startup screen..lolx

I had changed my startup screen to the liverpool wallpaper same as my background in all tabs. cheers!! wink.gif

I have both htcHD and iphone. Both have pro n con. Iphone is highly recommended if you are serious into music/videos/browsing - beautiul interface. If you are a serious business user - htcHD is the choice, with so many programs available. The iphone SMS/email sucks - worse you cannot even backup. SMS till today cannot forward and still no cut/copy/paste function; the virtual keyboard takes sometime to get used to. I still prefer to poke at my htcHD

The one thing I like the most in iphone and not on HD is the capacitive touch (body heat), I hate to use stylus to poke the pda coz it really looks like an uncle (no offence, hehe) playing around the pda.....well, business man wink.gif

personally I don't like to use pouch (too tedious to carry in/out), but the big screen on touch HD really made me think twice and finally I still use a pouch to protect it from being damage by some sharp edge or whatever, duh!

Hey guys .... i am lookin for a case / pouch for my HD. I wan the kind same with the pouch that comes with the phone, but i wan it in leather. Anywhere got sell ? or wat brand has it.
I went to Apple store and capdase does have it for iphone, i tried with my HD but HD is a little too thick to fit it.

You can either use Google Droid fonts (consists of Chi Simp, Chi Trad, Jap, Kor) and it was supposed to used on Android phones, someone has ported it to Windows mobile.

Pros:
-FREE!! Read-only
-Very compact size compared to other similar font packages
-It's GOOGLE branded, lol
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=googl...ows+mobile+.cab

Cons:
-The font is too big.....I tried it and the installation was successful. Chinese words are displayed correctly, the only one thing I don't like is the bigger characters were shown in SMS compose. Maybe someone has better idea? wink.gif


---OR---


You can go for sunglobe.cab (FREE!! read only) which is what I'm using now, it supports Chi Simp and Chi Trad (don't know about jap and kor since I don't use it), it's pretty small in size, here goes:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=sunglobe.cab

too ambitious biggrin.gif WM6.5 is known to be slower than WM6.1 regardless what ROM. Perhaps sitll lots of files with WM6.5 not yet optimized (by Microsoft). 5.2.21042 ROM is not good either. Regreted flashing to Dutty 2.4 sad.gif Now have 2.5, should I flash?? sigh.....

no prob....coz now dutty xtreme 2.6 liao, lol....better wait for its rc or next release coz he claimed tat it will probably reach final version the next (major bug fixed) icon_rolleyes.gif

but now im quite into wm6.5 (minus the lag) coz the interface is nice even without touchflo (i hate touch flo ...big clock etc)

There are 3 versions of wm6.5 now:

davideuck's - v5, am using now (slower updates)
miri's - v5.2 (rapidly working on, might consider trying it next)
maryone's - v1 (new to wm6.5 but worth a try)

the new davideuck wm6.5 v6.1 is pretty fast, one of the fastest wm6.5. Been using is for 2 days now, quite impressive..

I prefer miri's wm6.5 v6.1 XTRALIGHT as it doesn't have any extra 3rd-party apps bundled with it.

There are also miri's standard and premium versions which have additional apps as well as manila v3.

I have not yet tried davideuck's v6.1 but did try its v5 which is very slow that's why I go for miri's xtralight version.

Now my love for wm6.5 over dutty/davideuck/L26...u-name-it wm6.1 roms biggrin.gif

cheers.
