Black Shadow doesn't work well! - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Hi guys,
My friends and me tried Black Shahow( black 4.0) today. It really got big memory as previous black version, free ROM 53M and RAM 30.4M, noticed that TOTAL RAM showing near 50M instead of 48M. The HTC home looks quite ok but for the weather panel the cities are limited for selection. THE BIGGEST BUG IS that sometime it CAN'T START PROPERLY and ALWAYS HANG during the re-starting period. You may need to reset it for several time just to start the phone.
Long time expectation but still encountered major bug.
Hope JJ can solve these bugs.

Perhaps this would be better off in the official thread? There was no need to start a new one.

Anyway, just FYI:
the original one was ok but jj added a file to fix HSDPA - this cuased a comflict with the current version of the ROM.
Apparently, if you disabled HSDPA things are better.
That's a workaround until jj releases a fixed ROM a bit later on.

try turn to landscape will be better but still need wait for new one..

most issues has been already resolved on www.4winmobile.com . if you need help, go to jasjamming forum and ask there. it was his request, and he did not answering question on two places. bye.

Thanks your guy. I think it will be better to wait for new rom..

Anyone still keep the "First release version"?
My X01HT cannot wake up after slept each time...
I cant wait...

rom has been updated
Should this be a seperate thread here or just put it with the black shadow thread?

No. For you maybe, but on my 8525 it's fast as hell and haven't had ANY problems or this "hang" problem either. The ROM is awesome!

I've run the rom also...I'm having no problems either. I experienced a hang during the install but after that I've been smooth and I'm HSDPA.

I tried it but it still doesn't work, previously i installed official wm5.0 rom / qtek 2.11.255.2. It works quite well and stable. Do anyone have idea how to fix the bug?

Could someone please start a new thread Entitled: 'Black Shadow Works Great'
And then another one: 'Black Shadow Works So-So.'
Infact, everytime someone wants to say something, just start a New Thread.

Seriously, there is a Hermes fans chatting room. In the chatting room, it is complainted as well that they got same experience as me. There is one similarity that we performed complete flash using Qtek 2.11.255.2 before updating to Black Shadow (4.0). I am thinking if there are conflictions between Black Shadow and Qtek latest WM5.0 ROM. However, we don't experience such bugs using Black Diamond which i regarded it as more stable one and faster than Shadow and some other cooked roms. Unfortunately, i can't access 4winmobile.com and can't comment this to JJ.
Should JJ read this may he give us a solution.
Anyhow, thanks for his great works and best regards.

For anyone seeing this thread now - there is an updated rom called shadow.rar already posted on wmblack.info and it fixes the problems from this morning.

Hi, i just downloaded and tried the shadow.rar. After flashed it is still the same, can't start properly. Is it possible because of Radio? Someone with radio 1.38 told me his phone working well. By the way, i installed CE-star.

ey, works great for me with 1.38 right now...so seems your issues aren't related to Radio version.
Try without CE-star (perhaps not compatible), and post results.

I find it thoroughly ammusing! all these posts dissing the rom creator and booing if the f**k up the install or the rom isn't perfect! when will you guys realise that we are in the thick of beta land! everything is a gamble! you don't put your head in the ovan just because someone else did and got away with it!
i'm pretty new to this rom business and only tried a few. I *****ed once but then came to my stark realisation. IT'S ALWAYS A GAMBLE! read the notes that come with the rom!
these guys are clued up enough to work at M$ (or Apple. imagine mobile OSX on a tytn!).
I think you guys need to chill and take it as it comes! that's the deal!
that's my 2 pence worth anyway!

I think some members of this forum just need to get laid.

Has somebody installed new ROM JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900?

Please let us know your experiences with the new official ROM from imate for the JASJAR.
Just have ! (upgraded from the i-mate test rom)
All I can say so far is it is bloody fast ! It feels like my old XDA II now :lol:
Battery icon to time
Much faster than the previous official JJ ROM.
The only complaint so far is the time on Today is changed to a battery icon...any idea how to make it the time? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Oh, and no stereo BT

At least compared to the test ROM, the Fn-Right arrow works....
I had problems with the phone part with the test ROM. As I have the new ROM installed just last night, i haven't had time to test the stability.
And yes, it is definitely faster
this release rom has changes to the camera app awell,
i knew the up/down on the dpad did zoom, but im sure the left/right never used to change the camera modes, ie, pic, vid, mms vid, etc, now it does, no more fannying around fumbling touching the screen.
ive done a test mms and that worked fine, i couldnt get it to work on the test rom,
push mail is working, the comm manager seems to be smoother in operation now.
activesync, is as fast as on the test rom, possibly slightly faster. I didnt have a long pause that i had on the test rom before the first sync.
ive unlocked the extended rom, seemlessly
Where is the Voice Dial ?, I am not able to find it
Thanks

Hi Guys,,,
Does anyone know please, how can i delete two Imate Themes, I-mate_Grass.tsk & I-mate_Swoosh.tsk in Windows dir, i used Resco, but i can't deleted...
Thanks.

Hi there,
Someone please post the extrom files.
And list them with their use if possible.....
Thanks so much.

On the ftp there's another ROM, 1.30.82 . Has anyone tried it or know what it is?
This new ROM makes my phone very unstable and eats the battery in no time. Have to soft reset 10 times every day, because the phone freeze.
I didn't have these problems with the old Qtek ROM

I tend to agree on the phone issues ... maybe it's better to get back to 1.08.00
@ eman
Could not find 1.30.82, please provide info where did You find it.
If it is available, I agree with the question, anybody tried it already ?
Ruud
All new i-mate Jasjar ROMs were finally published at their website.
https://www.clubimate.com/t-DEVICE_JASJAR_UPD.aspx
1.30.82 is also there, and it stands for the new Arabic or South Africa builds.

There are two versions of 1.30.82: ME (Middle East) and SA (South Africa). I installed the SA version. No problems at all so far. I didn't let the Extended ROM install.
It seems just like the Test ROM, only that the Connection Manager can now be started with Fn + [right arrow]. No futher differences. Just as fast.
I think the only difference of ME and SA versions is the Extended ROM. I wonder if there is any noticable difference between the version numbers 1.30.76 and 1.30.82.
As things are now, this will be my last ROM upgrade. Finally the Jasjar runs like it should and I can't imagine things to get much better. Unless there is a new ROM and I can't resist....

Which ROM?!

Interested to see who's running what...
this could be tricky to maintain as new roms come out....!
lvsw is posted twice with the same production date im assuming the lower one is meant to be the older one....

Pants can any mods edit the poll - if not just use the top version......
I am assuming that 0.10 is the same as the vanilla ROM? I flashed the one that, if I remember correctly, was not the vanilla ROM (or I just have oldtimer's disease LOL).
Windows Mobile VI Black Edition all the way
You need to fix the dates for the LVSW ROM asap so that the Poll stays as accurate as possible.

I guess the answer is to reset the poll occasionally (or just delete and recreate it).
One way to interprett the fact that the ROM from yesterday is (currently) very popular is that there's a good chunk of us who check several times for something new so we can reflash our phones constantly instead of actually using them to make and receive phone calls. (What is wrong with us?!)
Alternatively, maybe it's just that more and more people are taking the plunge and so selecting the most recent ROM. Interesting, anyway.

Which version of WM6 do you have installed?

I was just wondering which version of WM6 people here have installed on their device. Please vote! I, myself, am currently using Black 2.5 and Radio 1.41.
Looks to me like "Once you go black, you don't go back!"

Just *bumping* it up!
Black is the best, hands down.
i use them all at one point,
Black is fast and quite functional. Support regarding installation is very good too.
CUSTEL's 2.5
The best ROM I have tried out of 10 in terms of stability and reliability.
Custel's is the most stable. Black has too many bluetooth and sleep of death issues.
I havent frozen up once with Custel, I use to freeze three or four times a day with black.
Has anyone lost their wireless/wired modem function now, I'm on Black2.5 and can't use my set as a modem for my lappy, tried BT,IR, USB...none work now? I really need this feature to log into work when in the field. Any ideas?
edit: I let my fat li'll fingers do the walking and found it...AWESOME site guys, well done to all. You put MS to shame!
Im going to use CUSTEL's roms from now on. Forget Black!

ELF EDITION V2 IS HERE! Based on LVSW, with special Elfiness in every byte!

Welcome to Elf v2!
Highlights:
Cooked into the rom:
1) BIG STORAGE!
2) Shadowmite's TweakUI 1.4
3) dotFred's PimBackup
4) TaskMgr
5) ATI Patch
6) Office 2007
7) OneNote patch
Cooked into the ExtRom:
1) Windows Live Search (My personal killer-app)
2) Windows Live Messenger
3) Device Lock
4) WM Transcriber
All extrom customizations are REMOVABLE via. the Remove Programs App in Settings.
The "Home" of Elf Edition v2 is at http://www.htc-devs.com/http://www.htc-devs.com/ but, support will be given here too.. However, you'll get far more bang-for-your-buck at htc-devs.com IMHO
Anyways... What are you waiting for?? Why aren't you downloading? Oh, you need a download link? Well.. Instead of having a great big red DOWNLOAD HERE link, I'm going to have some fun
Download here
Download v2.1 here
Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it..
Please install HardSPLv7 BEFORE you install this ROM! I am not responsible for any damage or bricks!
Also, IMHO, 1.40.30.00 is the best radio out right now.. If you're running anything lower, please upgrade! Of course, do it AFTER you do the HardSPLv7!!
Thanks man, it looks good, so where's the download link?

Hehehe. Sorry can't contain myself. I loved the Elf modifications to the LVSW ROM.
Hi Elf,
Just tried your rom. Here's some feedback, hope you don't take it the wrong way.
I found this version to be a lot slower than the plain LVSW build and also Sleuth255's build. Seems strange, since they are all based on the same core of LVSW.
Thanks for the effort though!
Any other download link besides Rapidshare?

I also had the experience of 1.40.30.00 being better... my phone showed better reception in places with that version than with 1.41. In the two days or so that I used 1.41, I also had the radio system crash on me a couple times... and far more than it has with 1.40.30.

Can you remove Live and see if it makes a difference? It not, can you reflash? I really didn't touch the pagepool or anything else that would have caused a difference in speed!

I understand what you mean dude, but unfortunately I switched back to another LVSW build and wont have the time to reflash yours and test now (only have one Hermes) since I will be travelling for a few weeks.
Anyway, I only tried it once, and it may have been some sort of mistake on my part (although I didnt do anything "strange" either). Nevertheless, it could be just me! :/ Also, I didn't try reflashing it during that time.
Anyway, just wanted to give some feedback of my experience at least, just in case other people experience the same thing. Sorry I cant help you test it more for now, and thanks for the work.

Strange in fact i found this version is running faster then the original LVSW version in my dopod, thanks LegolasTheElf.
I've upgraded the version of Live, and added a VOIP config utility and a few other goodies to the rom. Again, as usual, ALL are removable to a base/clean rom
I'll post the link when I'm done the finishing touches for Elf v2.1 But, it is a VERY nice rom. I'm impressed with myself
Just so everyone knows.. Elf v2.1 which VOIP configuration, the newest Live and a few other minor tweaks is just around the corner... For those who want it NOW, the link is here.
I will do a proper write up later.. But, for those who read this, the new rom awaits Oh, and battery life is unbelievable in my testing it yesterday.

TxTing While Talking

I have a 8525(Herm100) I"m running the TNT 2.0 Rom And for Some Reason every time I"m on the Phone with someone talking, I can not Use Any of the Letter Keys that Share #'s. Even if I use The white Dot Function key its a No GO . Is there a Fix or a settiing I've over Looked on my Phone ?
this has been covered already.. its a problem in newer roms.. only rom with this issue fixed so far to my knowledge is vp3's 3.61
Tank you . I search And DIdn't Everything I used for Keywords brought up everythread inthe Book. Thank you for the Quick Response And Short Flame lol I"ll check out that Vp3 Rom
no flame at all. but yea his rom is the only rom that is newer that has it fixed.. which sorta sucks i wish one of the barebones rom had it fixed in it but for now im stuck using vps rom

SOmeone said Is had Some To Do with the XIP file And they Can't Duplicate it. WM thing ? Which is Confusing, No Matter What build We use or Rom it's still WM So Im trying to get some Answers.... I Just can't believe MOre People haven''t Complained about this. I Mean IT's a Multi-Tasking Phone ?! ? I mean to Not be Able To Txt, Type, Email , And TAlk At the Same time Means I should have Just gotten a regular phone And called it the day you know ?
Well this is from his post on the topic
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1534286&postcount=71
Who knows where we go from here...
Yeah I just Read it And replied.... so If it's fixed in This Build I guess I should use his Build to Build my own Rom Just th eWay I want it. That's The Only Option I could come up with so Far. Vp3g's rom Looks And is Stable but the TnT Rom Has EVERYTHING that I use as far as apps Are concerned so I"m back against a wall here....
So am I to understand that this is Only a 8525 Problem ?
