HTC Phone Canvas - Touch 3G ROM Development

Has anyone managed to get the above to run properly on WM 6.5 (any version)?
I've tried several workarounds posted on here, but I always end up with garbled contacts and a scrollbar.
Anyone able to help?

try a the phone canvas of the mega rom

Tried that, I still get the scroll bar and garbled contacts.
DOes anyone have a .cab that they know does work with the newer versions of WM 6.5?

I installed Phone Canvas 4 and replaced phcanrc.dll with the one posted somewhere in the same thread, and it worked beautifully.
I'm using WM6.5 Build 28205.

Worked perfectly this time, not sure why, but all's good.
You can close this one now.

Just found out that incoming call is not working right. I can't see who's calling me.
fedrat :: Is your incoming ok?

Haven't tried it yet, will update.

Phone canvas is running ok except for the following:
1. No contact photo
2. Not all contacts are shown
3. All calls show as one name, no matter who is called. The name shows correctly in call list tho.

Tachi Phone Canvas Slide to Answer Problems with the new Fuze Rom

So I've been running the test leak rom from ATT for a long time and jumped onto the new offical rom as soon as it was out. I went right away and installed it and went ahead and installed TF3D2 and the new Tachi PhoneCanvas as well.
The new Tachi Phone Canvas has a built in slide to answer that installs over the slide to answer built into the ATT ROM. The problem that happens is something to do with the graphics. The picture of the contact doesnt show up and the phone number gets screwed up as well.
I've attached a copy of a screen shot for anyone to look at. I'm sure this will be an issue for most people so thought I would start a thread for someone to figure out how to fix it. I'm sure its just some registry entry or something.
Have a look and lets try and figure this out.
Here's where to download the Tachi Phone Canvas http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=499076
Here's the New TouchFlo3d http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493531
And the new ATT ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519698
same problem! Also, sometimes when i try to make a phone call, cprog.exe crashes too. i can deal with it, but a fix would be nice!
ALSO, i installed diamond gsensor2 again earlier and while i was in a call, i rotated my phone and I SAW a LANDSCAPE screen of the tachi dialer for a second!
When you installed the Tachi Dialer you were supposed to use a task manager and kill the cprog.exe process before you installed the new dialer. If you didnt do that then you'll have that issue you spoke of. I had it too and then reinstalled. Someone told me that we may try installing a different dialer that would disable the slide to answer built into the rom then reinstall the new tachi dialer.
The Tachi dialer doesnt have landscape... YET... so when you saw it in landscape it was probably just a glitch.
Has anyone had the problems I'm talking about here with the dialer canvas slide to answer?
I am also having the same issues with the contact pics and the cprog crashing. It also won't let me change contact pic from the contacts tab, but will let me send a pic to a contact from camera album tab. I did kill cprog.exe before installing the new dialer.
Well I tried installing the V4 XDA Black Slide to Answer (CDMA and GSM) canvas which installs and runs perfectly fine over the Fuze's new slide to answer screen and then installed new new tachi dialer on top of that and............. same problem. So so much for the idea of installing a working one over it and then the tachi cause that didnt work. Does anyone know the reg entries for this?
Sorry Aaron, I should have told you that I had tried the Slide V4 last night before I flashed to the new rom. before that I was having the same problem with the test rom from a couple weeks ago.

Manila 2.1 standard WM dialer

Hello,
I'm running topix 2.5 (however my guess will be that all roms with the new manila will have this problem). The problem is that I want to revert to the standard WM dialer so I can use PocketShield "better" again.
With the old manila it was no problem to turn on this dialer but now it does not show any information anymore. You can see that on the screen capture below. The lines are empty, but the links still work, so only the callers name is not shown. Do not mind the colors, I just applied a skin in the hope it works again.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!

As for as I know, there would be NO WAY !!!
And I think this is not because of the New Manila but the Phone Canvas (Topaz, Rhodium).
Why would there be no way?
If it's the phone canvas as you suggest.. This is just a package right, so somehow it should be possible to remove this package...
Still hoping to find a fix in the near future...!

Yes, at least no way at the moment until this is to be done by HTC. This issue has been discussed many times in Miri's ROM Thread. Hopefully it will be fixed in near future

HTC Pure freezes when answering incoming call, multiple versions used, multiple ROMS

This is an offshoot of this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4922790#post4922790
I, as well as others seem to be having this problem. It affects 75% or more of my incoming calls making my phone practically unusable, so I need to get to the bottom of this.
The issue: Trying to answer an incoming call when using Dutty Topaz R3 (and others) results in the phone freezing for 30 seconds or more and a missed call. Originally, I thought the problem was related to S2U2, but after a hard reset and not using it at all, it appears the issue is related to the ROM itself.
The weird part is, if I use the Topaz settings tool to turn off the Topaz phone canvas, the issue goes away. The problem is the last called list doesnt work, and the dialer doesnt work.
Lets see if we can get this issue resolved ASAP, so chefs can incorporate the changes into their ROMS. I tried a few different ones last night, and its a common problem across all of them.
Just to add, Ive had this issue with:
Dutty Topaz R3
Dutty Leo R6
EnergyRom Topaz
try change radio version
Its not the radio version.
From doing some reading on the forums, I think the issue is related to the Topaz dialer as I had that same issue on the AT&T stock ROM and some other cooked ROMS. I have been using Dutty's ROMs for a bit now and I find that his version (specifically with the Leo phone canvas) works extremely well. I have not had an issue with answering the phone since...
If you can find either the Leo Phone Canvas or the Rhodium Canvas, that might also help you as I have also read that just changing the canvas might work, too...
Which version, specifically, are you using? I can download and flash and give it a shot as soon as I know.

Any of Dutty's ROMs with the Leo canvas have worked for me, I was using the ROM in my signature for a while (for me, that qualifies as more than a week cuz I am a flashaholic)... Currently using his Holy Grail V1, which is also a really good ROM... Let me know how it goes, hope it works for you (don't forget the hard reset after you flash his ROM and it goes through its customization, you don't know how many people forget that step and causes issues with the ROM)...
Why discussing the same subject in two threads at the same time ?

Because this issue spans multiple ROMs and the cooks need to be involved in fixing this.
Moreover, there seems to be (as of now) no solid fix for the issue, so the more exposure we get on this issue, the more likely we are to find the fix.

I have said it in the other thread and I say it here as well.
Their is a fix... use Leo canvas. Topaz canvas is not compatible with HTC Pure. Topaz canvas is designed for video call, which HTC pure can not do.
Just finishes flashing HGR1, the dialer is indeed different (no video call option).
Lets see what develops for today...

What is the difference between video call and video share? HTC Pure supports video share.. Does this have something to do with the VGA cam on the front of the TD2 that the Pure doesn't have?

Is there a cab for the Leo canvas? If so can someone please post it.
Im happy to report the Leo canvas indeed seems to have worked.
The problem is, theres still a bunch of ROMs floating around out there with the Topaz canvas.

Good to hear that. Welcome to my world of problem free Pure ;-) Seriously, I am quite pleased with this phone, compared to my Touch, Diamond and Fuze.
Now we need to convince chef with leo canvas to make a cab for us.
Just to follow up, the Leo canvas has fixed my issue.
Like previously stated, and Leo canvas .cab would be awesome.

Have the same issue. I'll try Dutty's latest with the Leo canvas and see what happens. Could have sworn I used a ROM with the Leo canvas and still had the issue (eventually; didn't happen at first). We'll see.

Video share and video call are the same thing, just different terminology. Many people are saying that the Pure does not support video calling, when in fact it does. It just doesn't support it in the same way as the TD2, which has two cameras. The Pure has only one camera, which is on the back of the phone.
So you have two solutions. You can use ROMs with the dialer derived from the stock AT&T ROM (like Optimal Champious) or you can use ROMs that use the Leo dialer, which does not have the videocalling feature.
I still would like to find an actual fix for this problem so that those who own AT&T Pure hardware could simply run a cab that would tweak the Topaz dialer so it would work fine with the AT&T Pure rather than bugging out.
Ok, since no one seems willing and/or able to roll the Leo canvas into a .cab, what other canvas is compatible with the Pure?

[13.01.10] Touch-IT BL LS Build 23518 -discontinued at xda

I am removing my roms due to conflicts with certain members at xda, this looks like it cant be solved in normal ways. And because I do not want anymore of the bickering and fighting, I am pulling my work from XDA and all support is moved to you know where. I cant even mention that name anymore here.
Sorry to see this happen here, where I have learned so much, and met so many wonderful ppl.
The Dialer support Landscape? Has the Caller ID ?
I flashed a previous version of this ROM yesterday and I have the same problem - the Caller ID is not showing any info/contact picture for any incoming calls. I didn't manage how to fix that. Anyone going to try this latest Itje's release - please tell us if the Caller ID works properly this time. Thanks.
I can see the caller ID + picture in this new build (23518)
sorry to report that I forgot to check in the correct package for audio (was testing alternate packages) I unchecked the test ones, but forgot to check back the working one sadly that a cab wont fix this, it needs to be cooked in

Hi!
This is a great rom, fast and stable, and so far I have not found error.
The dialer does not work invested mode. We do not have a solution?
Sorry about the bad translation, I'm Hungarian, and Google has helped my friend.
Is their an SMS issue like in the previous ones?
Is the rom up now? Can we download it?
sms issue
What was the sms issue in the previous version I didn't experience any. My only issue is the scrolling on the HTC menu, it lags and i have problems scrolling left to right - only minor.
Any comments on changes with new OS build/Office? I'm assuming Onenote is in the new 2010 build and now supports sync with PC. Footprints is another app that doesn't work well in landscape possible solution?
I'll test the new rom and edit these comments if i find them fixed .

Thanks for the info. In the previous version people had to edit registery or something like that because the sms wasn't sending properly. Also their was a issue where if you got an incoming sms the device wouldent wake up another Registry edit fix. Keep us posted with more bugs, I want to put Sense in my phone so bad it's just that the previous version had to many issuse for me to flash so I'm hoping this one is the charm.
Results
Here is my run down on the new Rom 23518:
+finger scrolling HTC menu works better than previous build - need to wait for current page to load.
+sms working correctly
+Onenote is sync to its own notebook. I would like to change the sync notebook not sure this is possible.
-landscape issue footprints (disable landscape?)
-can't access task-x from clicking top right (common in other roms)
-old panel manager, can't seem to install x2 cab
Has anyone tried using this rom with display acceleration hack? Also does anyone know of a program to cleanup my contacts i have 4 duplicates of everyone?!

Office Mobile does not come with OneNote:
If you have OneNote on your PC, it will offer to install the mobile version on your mobile once you connect it to the PC.
I've tried the previous version and now this one.
I already liked the previous one, but this one is even better.
More stable and faster.
Very very nice ROM, Thanks!

Use SK-tools or Pocket-Pc-Mechanic to remove duplicate.
Use SK-tools to completely empty your PIM, including contacts before you sync with desktop. If you restore contacts from other source then sync, it will duplicate (bug with sync program).
I hope this help

Skype on non-3G HTC Hero ROM

Hi,
I have 3PAYG using with Hero. The problem I am facing is:
Whenever i install any ROM which is not customised for 3 mobile, then i am unable to run skype on it. I get an error and skype closes immediately after signing in. Even I am unable to get the 3 Favorites page while using this ROM.
But when i use 3 customised ROM, then i get all the features available from 3 including skype.
Is there a work around to fool 3 while still using a non-3 ROM. I did some search on this forum, but couldnt find anything relevant. Apologies, if this has been discussed somewhere else, in that case please can anyone give me alink to that thread.
Many thanks
kish
I've been trying to work out exactly the same. Modaco 3.2 works great as that was based off a 3 Rom. Have you tried other 1.5 ROMs as i've not yet got round to seeing if it doesn't work because its incompatible with 2.1 or whether it is in fact that there is something hidden in the ROM from 3?

nope mate, i have tried just the v2.1 ROMS and unfortunately skype works on none of them. I think there are indeed some settings (root certificates, etc)
If some of the senior member can shed some light on this, it will be great.
if you could attach the skype apk here that might help. other than that, have you tried skype lite? available on the internet[tm]

says "sorry, we don't have skype coverage where you are" when i try to log on... can't tell you more, sry.
if it's anything like the way 3 validate sony ericsson phone then there will be a certificate that you have to install to use their services.
I may not be a hero owner but this is just an idea:
anyone that's flashed a WM rom will know that when the ROM is first installed it runs through a series of tasks set out by an .xml file.
The way networks brand their phones is through this .xml file, it contains logos to replace the boot screen and wallpaper, also it contains an instruction to install the certificates to the phone.
This is because its easier for the network's techies to just create something like this than modifying the ROM itself.
This is true also for sony ericsson phones, its called a custpack.
For WM its called ExtROM.
My question is this: is there anything (remotely) like an ExtROM/Custpack for android/hero ROMS?
Josh.
Not sure if this info is any help here guys but I have a unbranded generic white hero, non rooted on stock 1.5 using a 3 simcard and I am able to download both skype and messenger from the 3 site and can use no problems.
The build number on my phone is 2.73.405.66 hope this helps

But to get the free skype to skype calls that 3 offer I'm thinking you would probably have to use the version provided by 3?
Its the main reason I haven't upgraded to 2.1, free skype and free messenger is to good to lose, but please correct me if I'm wrong here
Thanks but that's not what we're looking for, as that's skype lite which requires you to use skype credit to receive calls. What we're looking for is "skype beta on 3" which uses a special number to dial out and doesn't require credit to receive calls. The program is on the market, but that version only works with 1.5 NOT 2.1.
Although I hear that an update is on its way soon.
any luck anyone..
i think it relates to how 3 customises its phones (there should be some way in which authenticates which phones have 3 ROM)...

Don't think that is the case, as I mentioned in an earlier post, I am not using a 3 rom and have no problems accessing planet 3 and downloading the skype and messenger applications.
As I am using the generic unbranded HTC rom I find it highly unlikely to have been customized by 3!
So maybe the problem is not so much something that is missing but more likely some thing in the roms that shouldnt be there? just a thought
any thought by senior members?

What i wrote on the other thread regarding trying to run this on a 2.1 based rom below. Please note i've now had no problem running it on any 1.5 based rom, and have heard even some 1.6 devices have it running perfectly on a rom never touched by three, straight from another carrier.
I'm no dev, but looking at logcat, it seems the 'skype on 3 beta' crashes when trying to write the 'skype service' contact to the phonebook.
it errors trying to write to *content uri:* contacts/people/(number)/extensions as far as i can tell through my basic understanding, is that writing in that method is not supported under anything later than 1.6. It has been replaced by a new method.
I hope either some dev can workout what to change or we'll have to wait until three let it escape/release it!!! As i've worked out how to take apart the apk but lost when it comes to smali.
