[HTC-Diamond] |V|ROM|651|WWE| EnergyROM Photon (23081/21864 | Oct 25th | Mani

** I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR THIS ROM, THIS ROM WAS CREATED BY NRGZ28 @ PPCGEEKS **

Welcome to my kitchen!

Here's what's on the menu today...

This is an HTC Diamond CDMA ROM, based on Windows Mobile 6.5. The current build number and date can be seen in the title of this thread.

I always build my ROMs with three main goals.

• Eye candy.
• Speed!!
• Smoothness, consistency and good esthetics.

I preconfigure a lot of things in my ROM, because when I flash it on my phone, I want it ready to go, how I'd want it. So, expect the backlight to be set at the maximum brightness, the ringtone, sms/email and other notifications to already be set.

You will find a new ROM posted here every few days, as I always update them with the latest "ingredients" that come down the pipe, from either Microsoft or HTC. Because of that, I recommend learning to backup your settings with either Sashimi or UC (User Customization).


I usually make 3 versions of this ROM. If you don't see one in the download directory, it either means I haven't uploaded it OR I'm not making one for the current release yet.

Here are the different versions and what they mean.

• "Standard" includes the new TF3D2 (Rhodium Manila) along with the standard Windows Mobile 6.5 today plugin (Titanium*) and the Tachi dialer

• "Titanium" only includes the Titanium today plugin. No Manila in this version. This also includes the regular HTC dialer

You will find TWO core versions of each of the above versions.

One based on an the latest official windows build (currently 21864) and the other, built on the latest beta.

Currently the fast, stable, most bug free "official build" is 21864. I recommend you start with that first! :)

Tachi dialer disabler





Tachi disabler cab will disable the Tachi Dialer and enable the built in microsoft dialer. This however will disable calling from the TF3D, and possibly in texts and emails.

there is a way since they make the cleanup cabs but im not aware of how that they do so.

[Kiit408]

did any1 figure out the view the pic mail... and you cant add anything to this roms internal storage and this rom keeps saying that internal storage is full and some programs will stop working if i don't delete... anyone know how to stop that dam warning thing from popping up.. its annoying..

--------- New Post Merged on 12/11/2009 at 01:16:21 --------

figured the device storage problem... i'm pretty sure everyone but i know about this but if there is anyone else out there then hopefully this helps....

when you go into file explorer you select the drop down menu on top left and select "device" then go into program files folder and cut and paste everything in that folder into your internal storage's "program files" folder... this will free up 4. mb worth of memory..

that's all i came up with... if anyone knows anything else let me know... this would help...

[Kiit408]

has anyone found out to work that dam pic mail?????
???????

i'm getting nude pix from my girl and i can't see them... damit!!!

yea and even did reg edits and about a million hard resets... i need mms... o well... but i see that there is an update so hopefully this will work but so far this rom is off the charts... well for the diamond atleast... and from my understanding after reading at xda and ppcgeeks that this rom was originally built for 2nd gen diamond and pro and then stripped to work with 1st version i kno i kno... i need to get to the 2nd gen but dam stuff is tough right now.. lol... and i'm not mad.. just thought it was funny cause i didn't expect that lol...

this is why!!!!!! DAMIT!!!! lol upload link to this lol...

[Kiit408]

this rom is pretty smooth.. a litle lag... not very noticeable unless your experienced in tweaks and stuff but it's pretty nice.. hella free space in main storage.. and downfall is when loading up the information when you hard reset it will stop itself and say that google maps could not be found so don't know if i'm getting only part of the rom or all of it.. but idk.. but without it loading all the tweaks it's still smooth and responsive.. no freezes yet... picturemail not fixed but it seems like they're getting close so lets hope on seeing a future fix.. ;)

but i like it!!
