Previously I tried some of the latest Energy ROMs and liked them for the speed, the lack of HTC messaging, the well organized Start Menu, etc. but had to move on to another ROM because I had serious audio problems with Energy. Problem present while making phone calls and also while listening to music/watching movies through headphone. While volume is below ~50% the sound is so dull and faded I hardly understand what my talk partner says. Above ~50% it turns to an extremely sharp tone with almost no bass that hurts my ears. Also the volume difference between the steps are very uneven.
Tried both 21916 and 29022 of the 'Standard Reference' series with radios 2.15.50.14 and 2.12.50.02_2 with the same result. Used HSPL4 and the SD card method.
Strange but I couldn't find anyone complaining about such problems in the ROM thread so it is absolutely possible that I'm missing something although stock 3.14, Laurentius and Artemis (this is my current) ROMs had perfect audio on this phone.
Anyone could point out what I'm doing wrong?
Come on guys, any thoughts?
Or nobody uses WinMo anymore?...
Still using it
Just stumped on your issue as not experienced any volume issue on more than 20 HD2 company handsets running Energy rom (older 23699build is one we use)
Don't know if any alterations to the audio para file where made in later builds of Energy so worth searching the thread on it.
You could copy the audio para file from Artemis & use it to replace the Energy rom one & see if makes any difference ...
Thanks for the hint, to be honest, this is the first time I hear about this file.
I've done some research in the forums, now I understand that it should be a file called audiopara.csv in the \Windows folder. The problem is that in Artemis ROM there is no such file there nor on the entire device. Tried to find it with Resco Explorer with displaying hidden/system files all enabled, but found nothing.
While searching I found some pretty unclear info about NRGZ and pyrorob trying to address some in-call background noise with these mods but trying to put the picture together from a topic of 3600+ pages gives me headache. I've never had such noise issues they mention.
I'd like to start flashing the ROM but without any possible solution in my hands it would be a waste of time so if you or anyone could give any further advice that'd be great.
As I didn't get an answer I started flashing Energy ROM again to see if anything goes different this time but no luck, audio is messed up just as like my previous try. Before that I digged out my old Diamond2 from below the dust which also had perfect audio. Searched for the audiopara.csv and found it, saved to my PC to be prepared. My idea was that I'll replace Energy's audiopara with this as a try if things go bad but I had no luck because - like Artemis - Energy doesn't have this file in \Windows or anywhere else.
As I had to flash something to use the phone I decided to try something new: I flashed HD2O's v22. Not really the thing I planned because I don't really like WM6.5.x but otherwise it's a surprise! Lightning speed, HTC Messaging is pretty usable and fast and have the best audio quality I've ever had on HD2 so it seems like I stick on that.
Then again I can state that Energy's last ROM is unusable this way, either it is a bug or they overadjusted something.
Had a look on my older 23699 Energy build & it has no audio para file so that seems normal on these builds.
I have not experienced sound issues on any HD2 we have on energy ROM & audio quality seems fine, no staff have complained either ...
Maybe an issue linked to HSPL & radio or Energy ROM flavour of build you use.
Had a search in the Energy ROM thread too but found nothing much relevent to this issue.
Hope the HD2O ROM stay good for you ...

Sadly no. After some weeks of usage problems started to appear, for example disabled vsync caused terrible tearing in Sense and in Opera (only sometimes, otherwise no). Cooked in uTask caused sense to stuck at "Launching Sense..." forever at bootup, also Opera stuck at its splash sometimes, etc. So I went back to Artemis, now with the latest v72 but the usual annoyances are still there, for example permanent "Bluetooth on." message in notifications causes notification icons in the top bar to group so there is no missed call or new text icon just a generic "new someting happened". WM taskbar pops up every now and then when I touch the clock in the corner even if it is disabled in Artemis Center. Today I traveled by train in low coverage areas, listened to music while browsing the internet and every time I left coverage then when it came back I got a message window "Bluetooth stereo headset connected" (I used a wired earphone ). If I connect my car bluetooth when the phone is in vibrate mode the volume become a complete mess, nothing selected on HTC volume screen and in reality this means "Silent" no ring nor vibration appears on incoming call. Although I didn't try all the roms out there it seems there is no usable cooked rom for the HD2 and this is rankling. I'm on the edge of flashing back the stock 3.14 and apply all the tweaks manually I tried before with success.
Anyways after this amount of squawking... You mentioned you use a previous release of Energy and don't have audio problems. Could you give me the version number of it? Do the older Energy ROMs available anywhere? Or maybe do you have that image file? I could give it a try...

Refer to the NRG thread for HSPL/Radio version & install tips etc. We always do a hard reset after the flash as tends to reduces possible issues.
I would test your audio issue before installing & setting up the ROM too much as I have not seen your audio issue on any of our HD2s on this ROM !
With a little work this is a great stable ROM ...

Thank you sir, I tested it and I experienced the following: the audio issue is also there in this ROM but at a much much lower level, it is almost unnoticeable, I just hear it because my bad experiences with the latest Energy. Dinik's glass icons, keyboard, etc. is too much for me so after extensive googling I found the WM6.5 Standard version of the same Nov24 branch and it also seemed totally usable with good audio. But... in the meantime I read some other ROM's topic and found another promising one, CleanEX RV with 6.5 so now I'm testing that and put Energy as a 2nd best for spare. I'll see but I'm certain one of them will be my ultimate ROM. :good:

Have changed a lot of icons within the Dinik ROM & we use Finger keyboard due to wide amount of language support including a very good Thai keyboard layout plus layout etc is customisable but over all find the dinik skinning good.
Believe we have the NRG 28244 reference from March but no others.
All builds from Nov24 onwards had serious issues for us & we found just spending time to enhance the 23699 build best option. Hope one of the 2 works out well for you, have not used/tested CleanEx RV so will be interested in your remarks ...

Most readers here will be familiar with the notorious unreliability of the alarms/notifications in WM2003 - we've all seen the various fixes, from reg. tweaks to software patches, which deliver solutions which vary in success. What I haven't managed to find is a conclusive answer to the question "Have MS finally fixed the alarms in WM2003SE?".
Of all the reasons for upgrading my device to SE, this is really the only one which matters to me. I don't need Landscape, the BT changes don't help me either and since I'm still on the more stable 1.60 ROM (as opposed to the 1.66/1.72), I am happily using all the PP2 features without a care in the world... but I'd like reliable alarms!
I currently use a three minute time-period for the housekeeping process which works most of the time, but as my appointments database climbs towards the 500 record mark, I'm still missing some first alarms.
So, does anyone have a conclusive answer? Do the alarms work more reliably in SE than they did in WM2003? Please tell...
depends on what problem you face, my problem wit halarm was its long duration between ring & the short duration for total rings, well get SPB pocket plus & those 2 problems are fixed imediatly it rings accendingly & keeps ringing untill your brain burst

The bug I'm talking about is the failure of the first alarm to go off in a day, due to the housekeeping task not completing properly. If the first alarm doesn't wake the device and go off, none of those after it can go off either - until the user turns on the device manually and then gets them all in one go.
Oh, and I have Pocket Plus for the alarm duration/repeat issue, among others - while it does tidy the notifications database of duplicates it still doesn't fix this problem!
oh now i understand but this was fixed in the 1.72 rom, not even the se rom but anyhow if you are asking its is not present on the se rom too

I hadn't heard that, but then I've only got the 1.60 ROM on my device - that's the latest that O2 Asia released.
AFAIK it is NOT fixed in the XDA 2003SE ROM!
I have tried it several times with the 2.06 ROM and the first alarm on a day did not wake up the device.
I would recommend SPB Time or something similar for wake up

Tips
Battery status has an option called CpuScaler it's nice when you use the phone alot.. but it uses battery when the phone is in standby because it will acualy keep the cpu buissie trying to keep it at the lower setting.
What I do is I overclock to 260 and let Battery status show cpu then I can just tap the 195 or 260 to get the speed I wan't and when going to bed just set it to 195Mhz and the battery usage is almost nothing

8MB is a bit faster and 4MB has more ram
downloading.....Thank you very very much, Gullem! It's a little bit disappointing that the new camera more or less tarnishes all rom masters' talent though.....^^
Note 1:
V5 final is as fast as your series before (to be honest, much more faster than the well-known version especially surfing the internet), but Voice Speed Dial can't be initiated by handsfree, same as V4....(this issue has been solved by V5bera...) Could it be possible for you to release a patch for that? Thank you very very much!
Note 2:
As same recharge problem as before (it happened sometimes when I using G4 and G5beta), nothing changes when the device is linked to USB...don't know why. (It's hard-resetted after flashing). The only solution is to soft-reset the device to get it around...
Note 3:
X button on the upper-right corner works like a charm (sorry to borrow your own words), though the x problem never occured to me with V4 and V5beta.
Hellooo Gullum,
What is the difference between this rom and PDAVIEt 4.0.0.0.6 ?
except Transcriper and working BT A2DP ?! and i don't know if you like the transparent Home plug in Icons, but i will upload them anyway, so if you like it you can use them in your roms
By the way, I admire your enthusiasm...

Hi
You said the a2dp is working, does that mean the sound quality is like Fantastic rom with the new MS bluetooth stack? if so I will give it a go.
Thanks
sigh....the response i posted above remains no-reply for the fourth times. Guess that Mr. Gullum seems not very happy with responses from orientals (a similar message posted by another oriental, a Chinese in that case, implied the same suspicion . Anyway, time to flash again....

How, not replying to couple of posts has anything to do with race ?!! he has been working on these ROMs for days and nights!! the man has a family, he also has to sleep!! Give him a break!! the least you can do is try the ROM yourself, and respect who made it.

Gullum said that he was going to include the A2DP driver from Fantastic rom into the V5. I am downloading now and will check it out. Will let you know later. The sound quality of the BT stereo is also my main concern for choosing the rom to use. That is why I am using Fantastic B4 despite the bugs there.

Thanks for the reasoning. I do understand the way to respect others. Mr, Gullum is the one I respect most in this forum. I mean it! I posted the previous message because I do have that kind of feeling. I still respect Mr, Gullum for his contribution and talent. But please, please try to think of it that if you were the one who got nothing after posting many times with solid suggestion? It doesn't mean anything right or wrong if I have some kind of feeling, and it goes without saying that my feeling doesn't prove anything wrong or right. Thanks for your reasoning again, anyway. You are the one who want deadly to make this forum better, SO DO I^^.
Hopefully the topic stops here. All I wanted to say was merely MY VERY PERSONAL FEELING. If it hurts, I apologize^^.
Mr. Gullum,
From my 1st glance, the rom is fast. No battery drain and memory drain (I've flashed the 8M version) problems are found. As for BT, I don't know why. After I paired the BT with my iTech S38 up, there is not a stereo headset sign / logo on the top bar of the screen. And all the sounds are still coming out from the speaker of the phone itself. This is why I cannot test the sound quality of the BT Stereo yet. As you said, you have included the A2DP driver of Fantastic B4. That is why I am so excited to see your V5 rom and flashed it immediately.
Could you tell me how to activate the BT Stereo headset so that I could check and report the sound quality to you?
Thanks and regards,
HTC PhonePad
I am having problems configuringt the Phone Pad. It worked perfectly in the V5 beta with the cab-file installed, but with this ROM the Option button does not work. Gullum, do you have any idea how to solve this?
perfect rom
-no battery drain issue
-I am not taking a lot of photos with my prophet, so I am happy with the old camera driver
-4MB page pool version is fast enough for me, I prefer ram rather than several seconds of speed
-single instance of windows live messenger (in contrary to pdaviet 4.0.0.6, which runs another messenger instance even if you are already signed in. I had to write a simple program and pointed wlmmessenger.lnk to my wlmloader.exe to have only one instance)
-I liked the keyboard in this rom more because the keys are bigger. however, I don't know if it was also available in pdaviet)
-I have reset the device several times and no losing of anything for now
-the device doesn't lock up during boot while it is connected via usb cable.
I installed wm6 because I needed more program memory and .net cf v2.0 is already installed, not taking any more space in program memory. I read a lot of threads and disappointed with wm6 issues. But it seems that this version has no problems for now. I have overclocked the device to 247MHz (I had problems with higher clocks before)
really good work gullum. thank you very much.
Streaming media app
Another question. How do I get the Streaming media app to play .3gp streams. When I click a link it just opens WMP and I get an error message. I have gotten this to work earlier, but I just can´t remember what I did then.

If you are talking about T9 landgauges then it's because I removed all but English. And streaming 3g I have never tried myself so maybe someone that has tryed it.
OK guys,
Thanks to all hose who Beta tested the Neon WM6.1 Rom for the NEON.
I have just released V1:
Based on feedback from Beta testers this is the change log:
V1:
* Fixed HSPDA - When connection is idle 3G icon shows up, but when you use the connection it switches to HSPDA.
* Pagepool changed to 8mb
* Removed Diamond Dialer
* Kaiser Tweak
* Diamond USB to PC
* Reg Hack Hide Sim Contacts
* Reg Hack disable security warning
Important note: This Rom has only been tested with Radio 1.58.25.17. If you experience problems with your current Radio and this Rom you can download the Radio from the link at the bottom of the post.
These guys deserve a big thanks, Shortyboy and jcostanza4

Post #1 updated with new Rom.
thanks!
This worked perfectly with my Telstra HTC Touch dual (Neon) device.
For any other newbies like me, this is all I did-
Took my brand new Telstra Australia Touch Dual.
Installed the Neon Hard-spl here-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377260&highlight=neon
Then just installed the rom in this thread. It works great, though i've lost my Office Mobile apps.
I had no sound at all on the first boot, but after reboot (and it does tell you to reboot again) everything was fine.
Thanks! And I look forward to trying your future releases.
woops one issue
An update on my install, I did actually end up having issues where as soon as a call was made or received all sound stopped working (which obviously makes calls a problem)
As per the original post, installing the updated Radio which took me from version .15 to .17 seems to have fixed this problem.
So are you saying that this ROM doesn't have
* video calling
* office apps
* or SOLITAIRE!?
Can they be installed afterwards or anything?
Cheers
jbng
Okay so I freaked a little when the camera stopped working and my guitar tuner wouldn't work, but it turned out I had to update the radio and that fixed both problems. It does seem to be smoother too.
Office apps are there, solitaire is there, but alas no video calling.
Can you get a third party app to do that, or will we have to re-flash the ROM if and when you add the 3G dialer?
I'm getting a bit sick of this hard reset rigmarole - although I am getting much more efficient at it!
Appreciate your work Seth - keep it up. BTW, the ROM update seems to have fixed my 'not waking up from standby' issues.
Cheers
jbng
You can use User Customization, works for me you only have to run it once after the hard reset and all you've configured will be setup. Maybe if Seth is really nice he will include it in his rom the next time so you don't have to run it manually.

The ROM is working great - no lockups at all since installing it.
I seem to have conflicting information about Bluetooth being affected by radio ROMs - what's your opinion? The reason I ask is that my bluetooth range is pretty shocking (it won't even go through one thin wall in the next room) and I was thinking that maybe one of the newer radio roms might improve it.
Will the Niki roms on the radio page work in a Neon? Should 1.65x radios work with your ROMs? The 1.65s there seem to be from a Kaiser.
The other thing I've seen is a HTC-supplied 'bluetooth hotfix' for the TytnII - any opinion on that?
We'll hang out for your video calling CAB/ROM too. Not that I ever really video call, but if someone asks 'can you do video calling?' I want to be able to say that I can... ;-b
Actually that's a thing - if someone video calls ME, will I be able to answer with the current ROM?

See post 1 for the new Video Dialer.
In regards to the radios have a read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369502
I haven´t had much time to play with Radios. I´m using the radio of my post and my bluetooth is fine. The range is excellent, i live on the second floor and i still can get my cars bluetooth out the back in the carpark.
Hey Seth
VIDEO DIALER: didn't work. At all. I installed the cab, soft reset and had no phone dialer whatsoever. I don't mind reflashing the rom if that's what needs to be done - is the rom file on the front page updated with the video dialer? Or if the cab doesn't work will the rom not work too?
RADIO ROMS: it seems that the one you list is the best and latest for the Neon. The Niki ones and the Kaiser ones simply won't load. It's largely irrelevant anyway - because I don't think it's the phones problem...
BLUETOOTH: I faffed around for ages last night doing some tests with my dual and my decrepit old o2 mini (which used to have great bluetooth range) and it seems that the problem may be with the transmit power on my *computer* rather than on the dual. I left my dual next to my laptop at one end of the house, and then went to the other end of the house and did a search with the o2 mini. it found the dual but NOT the computer. I swapped phones and searched with the dual from the other end of the house and the same thing happened. So the phones have good range to each other, but they're both having trouble finding the computer.
I'm just waiting to get my hands on another laptop with bluetooth and then I can see if I need to call the good folk at Dell to replace my bluetooth module perhaps.
I'm also wondering if the laptop has gotten into its head that it's a 1m device instead of a 10m device. It's strange that I've only noticed it since getting my new phone, and now the old phone seems to have limited range too.
Anyways, blah blah blah - please let me know if you get any further with the video dialling in either the rom or the cab - and/or if there's anything you'd like me to test out for you.
Cheers

I will do two things tonight.
1 - I'll flash this Rom back on my device, i'm currently using SETHS DIAMOND V2 Build 19214.1.0.4. And i'll try to work out why the Cab doesn't work.
I'll rebuild this rom and include the video dialer if point one fails.
Cheers
Hey Seth
In the interests of 'giving something back' - here's a handful of splash screens for the diamond and the neon for you to take or leave...
Your 'logo' is supposed to be a square ROM chip but with griddle lines over it (you're a chef, after all). It also happens to be an 'S'.
If you want any further tweaks or raw files let me know.
Cheers
jbng
PS. While we're on the subject of splash screens, I get an 'access denied' error when I try to replace the windows mobile startup .png file on your latest Neon ROM. Any ideas why that would be the case? With the previous ROM my file just copied straight over the top.

Hi jbng,
Thanks for the wonderful images. The only program i know that can overwrite system files is Total commander. Just copy the file to your storage card and then use total commander to overwrite.
If that doesn´t work i posting 4 cabs on my latest Neon Rom for who ever wants to use your great artwork.
Regarding the Video dialer i just realized that RV1 has video calling, only the public beta didn´t. Please update your rom to either V1 or V"2.
Thanks
Windows mobile 6.5 build 21176
WARNING: THIS ROM IS BETA AND SOMETHING CAN BE PARTIALLY OR TOTALLY NOT WORKING! USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Download (SPL 3.5 ONLY): http://rapidshare.com/files/208071403/Athena_SPL3.5_WM6.5_WWE_R6.5-Michy.rar
Yeah!! This a fanstastic news!!
I'll flash my Athena asap.
excellent ROM
This is amazing for a beta. Email works. texts work. Its all in english and looks really nice. Love the new icons. And unlike the previous taxist ROMs I can access phone settings and set the bands correctly. all around loving it so far.
Its a perfect beginnig. I'm flashing tonight and hope for more news and releases soon.
10x mate :>
Nice
Michy,
Just flashed up from the TX 59 build, Very Nice work, One observation so far (has anyone else had a probelm with apps failing to install?) Resco Exp, Google Maps so far..
Cheers

bluetooth
Michyprima
thanks a lot sharing your work with us.
Just a question, are you using same bluetooth as your previous roms?
Taxist rom for 6.5 is efficient in my case due I have BT8010 headset and watch mbw150 in terms of quality sound and battery life.
amazing stuff michy, thanks alot
My 2 cents
My observations so far, everything looks great, about 80% on my commonly used apps get the "application install unsucessful" error, I have been having alot of system hangs (could be something I did install) I am on a x7500 (tried an extra HR just to be sure it was not a remnant from the flash) also updated radio from 1.57 to 1.58. Well that is the joy of beta testing I have always liked the Michy roms, This is only a 1st release and a very good one considering the work involved. (been running various wm6.5 builds on my Raph so I expect some bumps)
Cheers
BR

hey michy, thanks for coming through for us. i've been away from my computer for a couple days and was relieved tosee that you posted a beta.
a few things because i xan't type fast on the phone.
**out of all the apps i tried to install, only abiut 16% was successful. even my beloved touchpal didn't install, i got no other keyboard to install, mot even shape writer. the PHM keyboard included doesn't work (when enabled i had to change keyboard in settings then softreset). Um, anyone got a good skin for VGAKEY?
**the menu system is much slower now...
**I love that the honeycomb is much faster scrolling!
**IEmobile is much more stable, i actually haven't tried to install opera yet. the only thing it is missing right now is tabs and a larger buffer.
**titanium is more beautiful but seems a bit slower than the 59.
**the camera seems a little slower than 59 too, but somehow it is showing me that i have space for about 2000 more pictures (at 1m) than it did on 59. so its either this build handles images much better than previous or it's lying to me.
**on the today screen please change the left softkey to phone (minor issue)
*when i put the visor on time, only the hour is shown, the minutes shows like "...". eg. for 12:30am it shows like this "12:..."
**the dialer is much slower than 59.
*the call status screen is beautiful. (i wish the dialer looked like it)
**why does it always go back to the home screen after i select an app? can this be changed by reg?
Again, thank you mike for coming on board. if you need a tester, send me a PM
hey Michy how you been?
any words or thoughts on why most cabs are uninstallable?
the problem with the time on today screen ks resolved: i fiddled with the time in region settings and it somehow made it work like it should.
Strange encounters from my device.
After flashed, couldn't get it to sync with pc.
even after untick advance in usb to pc.
Noted it never auto reset immediately at end of flashing,
others do.
After a few soft resets, device couldn't start up again.
Not possible from soft or hard reset. Only way is
to remove battery for several minutes, put it back and
then it will start up from power on.
Aware it is beta, just love to try it out.
Great rom and beautiful too, thanks Michy!
13/3 update
After re-flashed by using SD card, device power up normally again.
The strange encounter I had was probably due to bad flashing.
Only thing now is unable to install program using cab or from pc.
well, now I can say only about 3% (I think its less) of all the apps I've tried so far to install actually installed....I've tried damn near a hundred app so far......
i tried 6.5 before...the test version...its VERY slow..i dont know about you version though, i will flash it soon to find out...i've been using ur 6.1 version and its THE MOST STABLE OS EVER!!! only one snag in that is that when u place the keyboard on the athena it doesnt show the small menu like the AP roms do...could u perhaps blend that in this rom?

how is this rom compared to tom's 2.06 (tf3d 2.1) rom?
for me tom's 2.06 is the best from regular (not m2.5) roms, everything works good, very stable, pretty fast and no bugs at all.
the main difference is 2.06 vs 2.08, this can be felt in some way?
anyone tried them both & can compare?
10x.

I've tried both. I like Tom's ROM and used it for some time but the Facebook integration always caused Touchflo to restart for me, this doesn't happen on Dutty's.
Therefore I prefer Dutty's Had no crashes, very stable and a few other tweaks I like.
Downside is having to add a lot of CAB's to get the look that I want but this is down to a. my personal preference and b. my inability to make things myself!
Hi do anybody know how to change to 3 rows instead of 4 rows for dutty rom? Tried tom's cab but it doesn't work. Screw up the start menu display.

On the other hand, installing a new keyboard is about the easiest thing you can do. Ezinput, FingerKeyboard or others...
Well worth it if you're otherwise happy with the ROM. I've never ever had a custom ROM that's been exactly the way I like it. But I don't complain about it, I fix it.
i would like to switch off "vibrate when keys are pressed", but i can't find the setting?!
some one please explain difference between MSVC and non MSVC versions
i tried to search but found its something with linux or c++ i don't know any of them how this difference seen to user?
all previous roms are with or without MSVC?
MSVC is Microsoft Voice Command (or Control ?) which gives you the abilty to operate your phone by voice commands.

You are right about that one
Anyway how about Page rotation on this Rom?It's just for me or there is nothing like that ever there?
I don't like the new Acrobat reader,you can't view pages completely as full screen,I'm sure Dutty will take care of these few things pretty soon.
Is this bug with weak signal indication? I can see no more than 2 bars.
I read about similar problem with udK's Leo ROM. And there was problem with icons file, as I can remember.
With udK's R6 and Shadowlines 6.5 Stable there was no signal strength problems (radio the same).
And thanks for great ROM. I think, that you must name it R1, not R0. It is solid and fast.

Just install the attached fix (official from HTC), it will improve the signal indication.
Extract and run the exe from SD card => soft reset => enjoy

OK, thanks. It works.
Hope, this fix will be included into new release.
I am on Tmobile and live in Lincolnshire, so have never enjoyued great signals. However, I genuinely think that this ROM is brilliant. I have yet to come across a bug.
If I'm being a picky arse, I would like the Wireless to be on demand, but this is being picky.
I think this ROM is very fast indeed and this mythical beast, 'dutty', has got a new fan...Excellent
I have been using udK's R6 before but now tried this one.
Good experience. The hotfix fixed the signalbar thing.
Don't like the File explorer ex version though.
The wifi seems to stay on all the time and does not automatically disconnect when not in use, even tough it is set up that way. Anyone got this too? Drains the battery pretty fast....
sms notification doesn't seem to work in stand by either...
