##############################
Well If you enterd this thread, You probley figured out that we have a 6.1 T-mobile edition rom thanks to ND4SPD. How ever at the moment it is limited to a small group to test. At the same time I hate using the PM system when multiple ppl are testing anything. So I made a thread were WE (the TESTERS) can discuss and post fixes for this rom so we can get it released to you (THE PUBLIC) soon. I ask please, PLEASE, Do Not Post in this thread UNLESS you actually recieved the test rom from nd4spd. When a nonsence post is posted it makes it harder for us to concentrate on working on the rom when we are answering your questions.
#1 Question to be posted in this thread is...
Q. WHEN IS THIS ROM GONNA BE OUT ????????
A. AFTER WE FIX BUGS AND ND4SPD FEELS ITS READY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
##############################
On to the post.
What I have found so far..
1. HOME Messages Tab crashes NEO when enabled.
Installing my cab of 4.0 Arcsoft mms did not help this problem.
2. HOME My Faves App does not work, but My Faves settings will run.
I have not tryed to fix this.
3. HOME Notification Tab does not open the text its notifing you of nor does it dismiss the text by pressing dismiss
I have not tried to fix this
4. HOME Wap Shortcuts cannot find winwap or one of its components.
I think adding regisrty values for clinks instead of using the guid will fix this.
5. HOME Settings tab doesnt include battery display
Figured out why but dont have a fix. Im missing HKCR
6. Start Menu Recent Programs includes 2 shortcuts that do not work (Instant Messaging.lnk and Task Manager)
In conveinence untill you open 9 programs to get these off recent programs. These programs work when using the shortcuts in "all programs"
7. PIE Favorites & History when clicked open file explorer. instead of drop down menu.
I havnt looked into this. How ever ive had the problem before and its usually the html file being used.
8. WAP BROWSER says my homepage is unavalible (but the default t-mobile rom told me this as well)
I dont know if this is just my phone, Feedback needed.
9. UNLOCK SCREEN still does not show clock and date when set to
Seems like we are going to have alot of fun with this one.
10. HOME Getting Started is not displayed.
Simple menu added to the registry for neo will fix this.
11. PHONE Can not initiate call by dialing number and hitting send key. (have to hit center button on D-Pad)
I have no clue were to start looking on this one.
12. MMS Does not work
SMS Works fine.
--
I have not tested WIFI or BLUETOOTH
ND4SPD said neo is looking for arcsoft 4 but arcsoft 5 is on this rom wich is why the message tab isnt on the neo homescreen.

5. HOME Settings tab doesnt include battery display
The battery in the settings tab is not showing up due to the ID in the registry {634CA962-22D8-4671-BBC7-BAC47148A4B6}, When its switched to the wifi ID wifi status shows up on line 2 but the battery is displayed in the settings tab and opens power.exe when clicked. But when switched back to {634CA962-22D8-4671-BBC7-BAC47148A4B6} the battery display dissapears.

7. PIE Favorites & History when clicked open file explorer. instead of drop down menu.
The html coding is causing the favorites and history drop downs from displaying correctly. This reg edit will fix this issue simply by using the default windows mobile homepage. wich is the same page but not skinned by t-mobile
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AboutURLs]
"version_0409"="[URL="file://windows//default_0409.htm"]file://\\windows\\default_0409.htm[/URL]"

shadowmike one of the biggest problems I am having is it locks up on the home page and did you nodes win going in to
internet explorer and hitting favorites or history it brings you to the windows folder

I think there are two ways of solving the problems:
The Easy Way:
Just use the wm6 OEM files and use all wm6.1 SYS files except CHome and ConfettiCore
This will get a working rom quickly but the problems we have now will still be there if we try making separate organized packages for each software.
The Hard Way:
Fix all these bugs one by one until assured to work and only then post a public rom. This means that the rom will take a longer time to release.
I prefer the hard way, but am open to the easy solution. What do you guys think.
btw, thanks shadowmike for making this thread. PM'ing was pretty tedious

Explain lockup ? as in freeze. And how do you get it to freeze ? Are you switching home screens and when you try to get to homescreen you cant ? what apps are you running on the rom ?
and #7

it just freezes by scrolling down it .well as there is so many bugs I am running no apps and by lockup I mean the home screen freezes so you can't scroll it but you can go to start and to other app but the home screen stays locked till reboot are you having the same problem if not I will try to redownload it and reinstall it... nd4spd did you work the bugs out of the new way of installing from the T-Mobile rom if so I will give it a go and I would like to see a stabile T-Mobile wm6.1 rom with out neo first thin work on this but you are the cook not to say I would use it I like the clean wm6.1 I have......i would like to see UC (user customizable) 2.0 Capable in the clean rom

I have not had your "Freeze", however since the shadow is underpowered. when i switch homescreens if i dont hit end call or the home button before it starts to load the homescreen i have to restart. however this also happend in the official t-mobile rom.

Small bug I noticed is when you set your calendar view to default to month (say), it still only opens to agenda view.
Not quite sure what received from nd4spd means but with a few hacks this is a great rom.

It means he pm'ed a few ppl a link to a new 6.1 t-mobile NEO homescreen rom.
From what he told me it was not publicly released... so if he did not send you the link to this rom and you have it. somone leaked it... thats what it means. basicly. I dont want ppl that dont have this test rom to come in this thread and ask questions and make this thread 10 pages.

How is the process going Guys.

well i decided to come back and work on this again.
im currently installing the rom. simply because i want to use the portrait camera. and since it works flawlessly in this version. yeah.

Yea Mike, what I been wanting is the original T-Mobile screen back.

Throttle Launcher (TouchFLO 3D)

ThrottleLauncher is a launcher app designed for Windows Mobile 6. Basically it consist's of several pages containing rows. Each of the rows depending of it contents can be scrolled horizontally by using the finger. The app is fully configurable through xml files so the rest of the features depends on the diferent setups.
Essentially, this is probably the clossest we can get to the new TouchFLO 3D (codename: Manilla) software to run on our low powered Wing/Herald/p4350.
Version 0.9.1 is in beta testing, and will be available to the public soon, you can watch the videos here.
You must download both CAB files and install them (order does not matter) and softreset when finished.

inexperienced yes, lazy no i have only just come back on the web after my last post and i came back on here to correct my post so calling me lazy is a bit harsh really.
Apoligies to everyone danozone is correct in what he says i didnt turn of the launcher in the today options, i find the rom with the launcher built in better than the app though,having the launcher running as a program on screen can be a bit annoying with accidental closing of it.

how can I get my ppc 6800 to look like this one and what apps ...
So we cannot get our WING to look exactly like the HTC Diamond with Touchflo3D on it?
If no, why is it so? is it because the WING is only 200Mhz and the Diamond is 528Mhz?
I have installed Throttlelauncher but I have too much trouble setting up and using it and I thought there may be a ROM ported from the Diamond onto the WING directly from HTC.
Can someone please point me to the exact instructions for installing the throttle launcher and touchflo 3D. I need the idiots version because I have never installed cab files or anything like that.
Thanks
i got it running on my mogul great my only issue is i cant get my pixz and my weather is in c and i need it in F can anybody help me with these 2 things?
Elle-Cie: Thats basics you should not need ask in this forum (or any forum, since google answers the question for you) but:
Simply transfer the cab file to the device in any way you like, and run it from the file browser to install. Or install using active sync.
About the app:
-Full screen does not work wit the TF3D theme. (replace taskbar)
-->The bar is not at the top of the screen. (It is room for about one more bar above it), and the navigation line disappears below the bottom of the screen.
-->When it does not disappear below the screen, it disappears below the bottom WM-bar (the one with "phone" and "contacts" on it)
-->When neither of the above happens, The keyboard-icon (to toggle on-screen keyboard) is on top of throttlelauncher, and makes navigation difficult.
Forgot to mention: I am using i780 with a 320x320 resolution, so I guess this might be related to my screen size not beeing supported. It would be nice if it could be, though.
There are also a font issue in the calendar-tab. The dates doesn't really fit in the grid - they are too big.
i tried installing this but it give me an error and now it lauching on its own but again all it gives me is an error
where do i download them to? plz help
To download: www.throttlelauncher.com
About other posts: please try last version and compatible themes, as last version is not compatible with old themes. And take care about the compatibility with your screen size, if the theme is designed for a determinate screen.
More: If your problem is related to Throttlelauncher but not tothe Herald, use the main throttlelauncher thread in (non-device-depending) Software section. Also in the developer's web.

[BETA RELEASE] WM6.1 T-Mobile Edition

Well, since most of the beta testing team is really busy, I thought it would be ok that I post my newest build of WM6.1 T-Mobile Edition as a public beta to get more feedback:
Features:
All the T-mobile bloatware!
NEO interface
All WM6.1 features except sliding homescreen
Working portrait camera!
Problems:
Sliding homescreen doesn't work
MyFaves locks up homescreen - Recommended to disable this
When Messaging tab is enabled it kills neo interface
Installation:
If on T-Mobile ROM:
Run CID Unlocker.exe and then run window mobile 6.1.exe
If on custom ROM:
Run windows mobile 6.1.exe
DISCLAIMER: This build still has many bugs and quirks that a lot of people do not want to deal with. This test is meant for people who understand this and are willing to give some type of feedback or suggestion that will push this rom closer to release.
NOTE: If there is a non-working neo tab, you will need to use a registry editing program to disable the tab.
Download link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/snvdw5 Should start with Neo automatically
i'm excited. i've been waiting for it long time. downloading right now. we'll see
Yeah, a lot of bugs. no home screen at all. Favorites at PIE sends me to windows folder in file explorer,mms after trying send new stuck. I cant unlock it, have to reboot phone.
neo works if you disable CMessageNeo plugin in registry. I forgot to make the change. I'll make the change and reupload the version.
what about slide theme?
ok there was no questione. i missed that part it is not working
Do you mind posting the fix for the portrait camera, or tell me how I can get it? I have your v4.1 ROM installed, and have been *extremely* happy with it. I just don't like the landscape camera. Thanks!
Thanks for posting this. I'm waiting for the final release since my phone has to be in good working order for work. But I love seeing that progres is being made. Kudos!
does mms work?
if mms doesnt work you can just edit it yourself using his guide on the developers version of this rom.
one of the bugs i found was when sending/receiving an mms message the home screen would no longer be accessible. it would freeze on the message and i would have to restart phone.
also my wifi does not work...
Upgrade assistance
Hi there - I'm currently at the tri-color bootloader screen and am at a loss of what to do next to recover.
I ran cidunlocker, which had an error, but seemed to work. Screen went to black then white then nothing. I power cycled & it came up normally. So I continued.
I then ran the upgrade exe. It ran for a bit, the screen cycled to the boot loader, but nothing happened afterwards. Now on poweron, I get only the bootloader.
If I try to run the utility again, the screen turns to a progress bar (only) that stays at 0%.
I'm assuming that this is a fairly simple fix, given that the bootloader still works, I'm just not sure what it is. Assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Adam
If the CIDLocker had an error, then maybe you didn't application unlock your phone first. Did you?
If I were you, I would download the T-Mobile Update from tmobileshadow.com.
Then hit the two soft reset buttons and press the power button, you'll get the tri color flash mode screen.
From there, run the t-mobile update exe from your compter and follow the on screen directions.
Once your phone is running again. Do an application unlock, Cid unlock, and then flash your phone with the t-mobile beta edition. Though I really rec you to use the 1.0 Developer edition.
Sugg Change to install instructions
Thanks, Levis.
Looks like the problem was with my running of the cid tool.
i'd suggest adding in something along the lines of "Run supercid.exe, ignore the directive to reboot your phone, instead hit ok at the dos box. When your phone turns white, run the upgrade utility (while the phone is still white)"
I had a better written text on this before, but it got lost in an edit.
Thanks!
Adam
Bug reports
From my initial run through, here is what I've found. Should we post bug reports in this thread, or in the "do not post" bug tracking thread?
Also, if there are any known fixes or workarounds for these issues (esp the slider screen ones), please point me in the right direction!
1. Default (awesome) t-mobile slider screen:
1.A. *Text/MMS/Email is missing from the main slider screen.
-- Aah, that is due to what you meant on the 1st page of this post, where cMessageNeo doesn't work. Yup, I definitely confirmed that by enabling/disabling it using the CHomeConfigurator (cool tool) http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2105&p=15149&hilit=myfaves#p15149
1.B. [RESOLVED] * How does one remove the myfaves from the slider home?
-- Looks like one can use the CHomeConfigurator above or follow the instructions on page 2 of the mirror post to this one on allshadow.com - http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2450&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=myfaves&start=10
1.C. * When a new notification for a hotmail email message comes in, 'dismiss' in notifications has no effect, nor does hitting the action button to open it. Note that left/right cycling through the messages does work.
2. T-zones busted
2.A. * Running the wallpaper/ringer slider icons indicates that winwap is missing. Running winwap directly from start menu (at least after installing Levis' t-mobile tzones cab) works fine.
2.B. * I AM noticing that it error 503's if opened when connected to PC. Not sure if this is new behavior or not.
3. Messaging Options in Start menu
3.A. * appears that we can't customize or create new MMSC settings (options greyed out)
And for the hang when myfaves is clicked on - http://allshadow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2450&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=myfaves&start=10
New Issue:
Default UI Actions
4.A. Using the (mostly) default screen, incoming caller ID for known numbers is white text on a white gif background, rendering the name of the caller very difficult to read.
I'm still using your original version which after a few tweaks works fine. Other than having to possibly tweak it (1.1 beta) more to get bugs fixed, which I don't have, are there any significant improvements to this 1.1 beta version? I always hated the neo theme as well as my faves and do not want to mess with this beta which apparently has now added them back.
If your revised rom has improvements as well as fixes for some of the above I would happily test it.
Thanks for all the hard work you have done. I am still happily running your last edition.
Everything seems to be working fine besides the msg in the main screen
You devs still monitoring this thread?
ND4SPD, Mike,
You guys still monitoring this thread? I'm wondering if the issues that we're reporting are being of any use in your future development efforts.
Thanks,
Adam
Yes, I'm monitoring this thread. Thanks for all the feedback! I've been busy again with a competition and haven't had time to modify the ROM. Don't worry, all of your input will be taken into producing a better test rom.
I've been collaborating with some people trying to get NEO on wm6.1 on other devices and they're having the same problems as well. Just a heads up, I'm pretty sure there will still be some buggy things until I can get the shadow 2 rom that has all the modified dlls for both sliding panel and neo.
Quick question, what's new/fixed in the "Clean Dev Rev1.1 BETA 1" that you have listed in your signature? Does the CMessage panel work in that version?
Great work on the first Clean Dev btw, I really enjoy 6.1 thanks. I just took the plunge on Friday and of course I find out you have a new version coming after I spent hours tweaking it lol.

Nothing new in the new official HTC ROM???

Everything is quiet like the grave... I haven't heard or read a single word if there is anything new in this rom except the tiny bug fixes announced by HTC...
Anybody who already upgraded, have you noticed something new???
Hey
Apart from the official line heres what ive noticed (in twelve hours)
1. Sliding Bar answer on incoming calls
2. Text input keys are smaller so that you can actually see whats on the screen when youre writing (sic)
3. Ever so slight speed improvement on finger sliding
4. Video Call re-replaced with contacts (life saver)
5. Might just be me but the fonts seem sharper and slightly smaller.
6. Add a word in text messaging for example now gives a tick and a cross instead of "add"
Just random little things Ive noticed but as they say, its the little things that count eh!
no more flipping envelope when going to mail it's just there...
and some speed improvements, but in winmo only (not touchflo).
hey just a couple more
7. When connecting to PC via USB you get a 3rd choice - internet sharing (as well as active sync and disk drive)
8. HTC flo text message section now has a forward option as well as reply and delete - no need to view all messages to forward
ill keep you posted (or not if no one is interested)
Thanks for the replies
I feel like the Sliding Bar on answering calls helped me decide to upgrade, even though I'll loose the flipping envelopes
Sliding Bar is good
Ability to forward text message from Touch flo is good
The rest are the icing on the cake!!!
Good luck - I had a bit of a scare with my upgrade last night - it stopped on 60% and told me the image file was corrupt. Worked second time though from the same file???
First bug: if you have activated a security PIN (like me) you can't block the phone keeping pressed the phone down button. The screen goes black for a fraction of second but the phone doesn't block.
Another thing I didn't notice before (so I'm not sure if it was the same in previous versions): you can add only 15 persons to your favorite contacts (the "Add to Favorites" buttons just disappears). BTW, is there any tweak to increase this limit?
its always been 15
I use speed dials - easier and possibly limited to 100 (not sure)
The favourites has always annoyed me - you cant seem to change the order in which they appear and they look boring without a picture (IMO)!
There's also a new Java engine, better than the old one. At least better for Opera Mini 4.2, fonts are now bigger and easier to read.
A recommended update.

My envelopes are flipping fine.... just as they always have!
And for anyone's who's interested; if you've been using any of the cooked ROM's which have been released recently, you won't notice any difference with this official release because the ROM cookers have been using v2.03 for weeks!
9. Agenda from home screen works correct now. Choose the view u'd like to see, (day, week, month whatever) and it will open up correctly right now, when opening Agenda from home screen.
10. When u select agenda or calls on the home screen, it will be selected by green. When u finished looking agenda or calls, and return to the home screen, the green selected option is gone, a clear screen with no green. (before the thing was always green when u turned back, it frustrated me )
Just 2 things i recognized!
I saw it at Singapore web site http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=483&news_id=44

They do indeed, but thanks to Facebook I have pictures for all of my favorite friends...
I'll give a look to speed dial too
with this new rom, i have a problem:
when i receive a message and open it with tf3d i can't type prompt.
i have to move down the text to see the last message and then i have to put the cursor on the correct place.
Its a rom update but is it aswell a radio update?

Noobie question,
As The HTC website won't accept my Orange UK Diamond S/N, would it be okay to download from another source, or do I have to wait until Orange to approve the newer ROM, and publish on their website confused
many thanks

As far I now Orange use a own brand rom and when you start using a other rom you will lose your waranty, ofcoarse you can get a other rom just ask someone here to upload it, but you can use than aswell a coocked rom.

Yeah, correct. Orange will distribute their own ROM's.
11. AKU version has been updated to allow synchronisation to two PC's (fixing the Activesync error 0x86000107).
Hey
A little bug that I found last night - I installed nadavvi-nadavvi-call-history cab - which installs an extra call history tab to the touchflo menu
Afterwards everytime i tried to access sms through touchflo i kept getting unexpected errors in manila.exe.
As soon as i uninstalled the call history tab sms started working again. Shame as i had this installed with the older rom with no probs and it is quite handy.
I've decided to do the upgrade tonight but I have a question:
All my apps are installed in the 4GB Internal Storage (Not the phone memory). Will the Internal Storage be viped out aswell during the upgrade?
If not, I guess all apps will be useless anyway since the registry is viped. Do you recommend uninstalling all the apps before the rom upgrade???

14.1 best IRC solution imho, is the HTC's own program. you can find the program and a few explanations here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3800829&postcount=183
this one should be used only after editing the registry as described in fix 13 or (as i discovered by chance) you can first install mskip's cab (the cab is going to edit the registry for you) and after that install the HTC's app found in the above link.

The workaround is found in Flip_it (from the WildBerry Team)
In many roms Flip_it is already cooked in (i am using Miri rom so i had to install myself) so that is easy.
When you set Flip_it to rotate 0 and 270 degrees, and after that choose HTCAlbum.exe and also check 0 and 270 degrees then the problem is solved.
You can dubble tap on a picture in landscape and the picture is zoomed how it should.
I think till a real solution comes, this is the way..
21- Restoring the multiple snooze option in Notification Manager (thanks, biiig thanks to crackwhore and avimak)

21.2-avimak's more radical solution for the ones that want to have again the option to get the command manger and volume control by clicking the top task bar:
If you're using Dutty X3 ROM (for sure not only Dutty's) you should have this files:
NotificationLayout.dll
NotificationManager.dll
replace them with text files having the same name. avimak's advice is to use non empty files (type yr name inside, for example) but i can say it worked even with empty files.

If you like what i did and you are under age go and play with your friends and forget about your PC and this forum for at least a few hours!
Great initiative, since the rom cookers dont collaborate no more we need such threads for us users, and rom cookers.
I hope this'll open eyes of the ones not sharing and not taking advantage of the bugreports here.

Mh, in some ROMs (Dutty 2.3 XTREME, Davideuck V-3 H.P., etc.) this issue is fixed but I think because of other sources and not a fix.

In the first post, you better change the headline "More than 3 lines in SMS." because this is only for the input-field in outlook(!) by threaded layout.
Related to new manila ROMs "3 lines in SMS" imply the new manila SMS layout, which cut messages after some characters (normaly 3 lines).

thank you for yr help, much appreciated but please PM me so we'll keep the thread clean as much is possible.
Must be a sticky in my opinion,
Just wondering if any of you have come across this bug in Duttys V2.3 which I've posted in the thread but I've had no responses.
Maybe you are able to help?
I have restored the Programs Tab and the Old Start Menu. If I enter the Programs Tab the 2 soft keys at the bottom are All Programs & Remove as normal. But if I click on any other Tab, i.e. Weather etc All Programs & Remove remain as the soft keys. A soft reset returns everything to normal i.e. New SMS & Contacts in Home Tab. Only problem is everytime I enter Programs Tab they return to All Programs and Remove and stay this way until I reset again!
EDIT
Another little bug which appears once you have returned to the old start menu and restored the programs tab is if you open any program through the programs tab the start menu is automatically opened along with program??
Any solutions to either of these??
@fallen spartan
please, let's keep this tread for fixes (problems solved) and not starting a [email protected] thread. i am sorry, i do not have a solution since i am using the ROM with the new start and love it this way. the old start has only 7 entries, now we have 15 or more. i do think is an improvement
bluetooth AVRCP (remote control)
What about the bluetooth AVRCP bad egg, it calls the crappy media player everytime I press the buttons on my stereo headset, any fix for that ? just want to have the windows mobile normal AVRCP

Contacts BUG (doesn't read SIM contacts):
(in Manilla 3 ROM Topaz/Rhodium; Davideuck_V-3_HP,OS 5.2.21014,ORIGINAL RHODIUM OEMs,[18-3-09, UPDATED]!!!)
TY for the new version; testing it atm.
1 big issue I ran into:
When I go to Messages, and create a New text message, then under Menu > Add Recipient; I can *only* select from my Contacts & Company Directory; but *not* from my SIM card.
Can anybody else see the contacts on their SIM there, or it's a bug? Personally, I want to keep my contacts only on my SIM, because it makes the flashing easier, and if my phone would break, I would still have all contacts on my SIM...

Many people asked to hide sim contacts in all the roms, in "old" roms too. So, in my rom they are hidden by default and there's ING_HideSIM_V_2_1 too.
Now, you can try a thing(I don't know if it'll work becouse I'm testing WM6.5 now, I'm sorry for this), change this reg key:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone
ShowSIM=1
P.S.: I'm sorry becouse I have no time in these days to follow the forum, but I'm busy with my "normal" life too

If you are getting the double contact suggestion list with writing an SMS, you can disable the WM suggestions with the reg key
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Inbox\RecipientAutocomplete]

Everything works fine for me after that.

[ROM][WM6.5]HTC rom | T-mobile US Special!

Recently, I downloaded the latest htc wwe rom for my T-mobile US branded Touch Pro 2. I liked it, but it seemed like there was a lot of crap that just didn't need to be there. So I decided to create my own rom.
This is a solid, STABLE rom, but it's version 1, revision 1. I'll be making changes to this, but so far, it's off to a good start.
To start with:
HTC's latest shipped rom
removed co-pilot gps(choose your own)
removed radio(available as a cab)
removed audio booster(wired headphones what?)
removed facebook app(available as a cab)
removed google maps(available as a cab)
removed windows live(available as a cab)
removed msn messenger(available as a cab)
removed 'getting started'(who needs this?)
removed adobe reader(available as a cab)
removed jetcet presenter(I'll never use it, probably available as a cab)
removed jblend(waste of space for me)
MMS send and receive limits have been set for T-mobile US(no more small pictures)
NOTE: You'll have to manually set the T-mobile MMS Server to http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc (like I said, this is my first revision, this will be set automatically soon)
After a day of use, I idle around 60% memory usage, which isn't too bad. In future revisions, I'll be looking to reduce that number. However, if you disable manila and use the default WM home screen, that drops to about 45%
ROM FTP Link
The username is xda and there's no password.
Instructions are the same for any rom, just make sure you have an activesync connection, and run the rom update utility.
This is my first foray into the rom cooking world. If you like my work, and would like to show your support, consider donating.

Ha! Way to steal my 2nd post! Anyways, I'm working on setting up a download profile on my ftp server for xda users. I should have it done by 1pm eastern time. (that's in my first post, by the way) ;-)
Just to be clear this is based upon the unbranded WWE and you are customizing it for the US TMo or did you somehow get access to the US TMo 6.5 image that has yet to be released?
S
This is the unbranded htc rom. I wouldn't want the t-mobile rom anyways...to much junk in it.

Are you sure you're doing it right? There's a file called SGM10R1.zip in there. I tested it from different locations, it'd definitely there.
Try this: go to internet explorer and paste ftp://[email protected]
You should see the file then. Remember, if it asks for a password, leave it blank and just click ok.
EDIT: My mistake, I forgot to increase the amount of concurrent users on my server, it's usually set at 4. Lol. It should work fine now.
Yup its visible now... When u gonna be dropping v2? Also I believe his question about the kitchen was would u post the one your using.

Probably by the end of the weekend. I have a few tweaks to drop memory usage that I want to put in there, and the facebook sync in contacts isn't working because apparently I removed it by accident. So hopefully sometime before sunday. I'll update the main post when it happens though.
Thanks for the ROM~
Do we need to hard SPL unlock before flashing?

I'm glad you enjoy it. The second revision is basically the same as the first, with some speed enhancements. I JUST found that issue tonight. Apparently when manilla is running it takes over certain aspects of the os, like contacts and calendar. It'll do the same thing if you press 'all people' in the 'people' tab. I'm not sure why, because I didn't mess with any of the contact stuff. I'll keep you posted though.
also i forgot to mention that the gps is not working when i try to use google maps and the my location either. i dont know if its turned off.

I haven't experienced this problem. As a matter of fact, I was using tomtom the other night to get myself to a friend's wedding. If this is your first time using the gps after you flashed, run quick gps and then open google maps and make sure 'use gps' is selected. Then just leave it on the window sill for a few minutes(making sure it isn't sleeping). The first gps fix can take a few, even with quick gps.
Though, I will say the touch pro 2 is very slow to get a gps fix in general. My tilt was faster. :-/
ok I'm doing that as I type this to you. so you telling me that your my location works fine on your home screen. and also my alt key doesn't work on the keyboard
Yes. My location is 100 percent functional. The only reason I can see that it wouldn't work is if it can't find your actual location...but I'm not even sure that's possible, as it uses a different database for that. Does it not show up at all, or does it show 'my location', and then the weather data?
nope nothing still i did the quick gps and then left it on google maps for about 8min now and still searching for satelite at times it says updating location but then quickly goes back to searching for satelite
