Hi Guys,
i`ve defected from an XDAII to a Wizard )
lol. minor niggle... is it posible to change the keyboard backlight settings somehow ??? Basically i tried to type an email at night and the keyboard backlight kept turning off after 2 seconds of no use. really REALLY annoying!
Is there any way to change this to say 20 secs etc??
Techie info of my Wizard:
ROM 1.5.4.2.WWE
ROM date 11-8-05
Radio Version 01.09.10
Protocol Version 4.0.13.20
Ext ROM Version 1.5.4.103
Thanks guys.

Hi Andy,
You'll find such a tweak here, but apparently it doesn't work for the wizard...
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WM5_Tweaks_Other
Cheers,
Hal
Or, in other words, no. There's suspicion that this is set in hardware as no one's been able to change it to date.
Grrrrrrrrrrr
lol Thanks Guys. Appreciate the info / effort.
Thats a real bummer... kinda becomes pointless backlighting the keyboard then. Any ideas how to contact HTC to ask em ??? Id like to just for peace of mind :?
Try clicking this: http://www.dweiniger.com/tips/k-jam.shtml and read point number 8
Like hal and markgamber said: THIS tweak doesnt work on Wizard!!
That is why I wrote TRY...
Show some courtesy, please...
Besides, I at least tried to help...
So I just ordered a Wing and it's in the mail now. Upgraded from the mda or wizard. Was wondering what the best touchflo rom was for this phone. The mda roms arn't compatible with the wing are they? Because I've been using the TNT 5.0 rom on my mda and liked it alot.
I would say this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327276
but since its a wing, and this rom is cooked for p4350 you have to do some tweaking, you can find info on how to in this forum
if not maybe u can try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329913
And if you have questions or need help, check out the link in my sig.
What are the differences between the Roms?
For the Herald/Wing, the only ones I know about are :
Touch-IT
PDAVIET
Are there any other roms out there for this device?
The only Rom that I've ever messed with is the PDAVIET rom... and because of warnings I've seen people write such as "this is for herald users only, Wing users are on their own" etc... I've been hesitant to mess with them. When the PDAVIET "for wing users only" came out, was the first time I decided to go ahead and install a new rom.
Would it be possible for the people who made the Touch-IT rom to make it compatible with the Wing? I'm not 100% what all goes into building a rom or how much work goes into it? How hard would it be to make the keyboard work with the Wing and fix any other bugs that are present between the wing and the herald?
Correct me If I'm wrong, but I thought the wing was just T-mobile's name for the Herald?
The T-mobile Wing is known as the "Atlas" which is a variant of the Herald.
O wow, well good thing I know that now. I was considering installing TOUCHFLO v4.17.07.12 PDAVIET since it was made for the Herald. I guess that would work right. I was just wondering how stable it is at 273mhz. When I had the mda i never clocked it over 247mhz. Is the cooling better or something now?
*Edit Saw your is .14 not .12. Good to see there is a good rom out. I think I'll be trying that one.
Follow the link on my signature for the touchflo rom. It rocks...
I really want to try the touch-it rom, but I'm not sure i want to give up some keyboard functionality and whatever other bugs that have been reported... I would much rather stick to something that was made for the wing.

Is there any better instructions for that rom. Do i used the fixed version or the one on page one. Someone really needs to make another page about how to install that rom. There is way to much going on in that thread.
ok, I suggest this:
Give me a list of whats needed to be changed with the rom to make it compatible with wing, and I will cook a Touch-It rom for Wing.
I need to know what the diffrences is, I know there is posts about it here, but im not gonna stroll through it all to find whats needed, so if you want a rom for it, provide me with the info and you will have a wing rom by the weekend.
You can also provide me a link to official wm6 os for wing (unmodded)
cheers
I believe this is the download for the offical unmodded wing rom. Found on the wiki page.

I'm not aware of all the problems besides the keyboard as I don't even have the phone yet(it's in the mail). I'm aware of the keyboard problem. I'll try and collect some other things. I'm sure duprade probably knows more of them.
I only know what I have learned from Tyler... he would probably be the most appropiate person to ask, since i believe he is currently running the TouchIT rom.
The problems with the keyboard not matching up... which is what Tyler had posted on his guide
" There is some aspects that work just fine, and others that dont.
In portrait and landscape the touchscreens keyboard works just as its supposed to.
When using the actual keyboard, all MAIN keys (asdf, ect) work as they should.
All numbers when using ALT work as they should.
The rest of the errors is as follows:
*When using alt* (Formula: (Letter)(default alt function) = (Touchflo rom response)
Q ( = @
A - = _
W ) = !
E = EQUALS ?
L @ = =
O ! = (
P ? = )"
There are 2 other things I found on his post:
messaging key takes you to voice command,
the little "comic book dialogue" key takes you to the comm manager
alright cool, that's a start. I'm really glad we're getting this built. I'll try and get any more wing problems up tonight if no one else does.
Yes, the only issue with the Wing is a particular file in the OS, but I couldn't tell you which one. All I know is that no amount of registry edits can fix it, it has to be a DLL or something. I've compared everything, and it seems that the only thing different that I could find was the keybddr.dll appeared to be a different file size.
If you can fix this in your ROM releases (heck, even just including a patch or a tool or batch file to replace files in any OS.nb with the Wing-specific DLL as it appears to be a file that's in every install of WM6), I'll have your babies.
itje, I'm running your Touch-It ROM and the only issue that I have is the keyboard. Its kind of funny because I almost have all of the different keys memorized now. But yes, a fixed version for the Wing would be awesome.

NOTE:
I dont have the p4350 anymore, so I could not test the roms with touchflo and no cube.
But they should work
Instructions how to upgrade is in the Touch-IT folder.
READ IT.
If you dont, you will spend even more time infront of your computer flashing the official ruu before trying again, why waste time, use 1 min to read and understand.
Remember:
If you dont like what I have added, or what I have removed or w/e please dont spam this thread with lame comments.
Disclaimer:
I take NO responsebility if you brick your device, if you do search the forums before you come flaming me/us here at XDA.
IF you brick your phone (Brick=the phone can be used as a building brick, or maybe a paperweight? Because you cant start it up.) Its no others fault but your own.
Mainly the reason for bricking a phone is:
1. Not reading the instructions good enough
2. Not following the instructions.
3. Not having a RUU that can unbrick the phone (the official installer with the official rom for your specific phone, with your phones default language. In.ex if yu have a german phone by default, you need a german RUU, if not you will get invalid vendor error)
4. Not reading the instructions good enough..again
5. Not following the instructions...again
If you dont understand after reading CAREFULLY, then dont bother flash your device with this or any other rom.

Wow, dude. Awesome. And just in time for me buying my P4350 monday (or tuesday possibly). Not having tried flashing before (but already having read the instructions several times, even though I haven't actually got a phone to do anything on), I don't know the quality of your roms - yet I presume from what I have read that they are quite good indeed.
So thanks for your work on the roms, even though the P4350 isn't exactly new.
Just out of curiosity, is it WM5 or WM6 it's built upon? I can't seem to locate that fact anywhere in your post, but I might have overlooked it for some mysterious reason.
EDIT: It seems I was a bit too quick to post the latter about me not finding the information. I googled a bit and it seems that Kaiser OS of that build mentioned above is indeed WM6. So I guess I answered my question myself
EDIT 2: First (or well, second), I guess?
glad to hear that you're still doing work for us. I can't wait to put this on my phone.
thanks mucho.

Dont reply to this, and dont post other stuff then about this rom.
thx
Hm, maybe this should be stickied. Easier to find it, as it seems to be the final version ever to be released.
I am however curious, itje. What if bugs pop up, will you be fixing those? Depending on their size and reach of the bug, of course.
hello itje,if i found a language pack french,with these release,work??

Well, it might work. If you find a language pack that works on wm6 then it might. Why don't you try it out? Just make a backup, flash, see if it works, flash back to your current rom and restore your backup. I'm sure it can't be that hard.
UAHUUUUU
I love the "READ ME-How To Upgrade" file
I love the new (light coloured) splashcreen and theme
I love everything man!
It is dumb saying so since it is the last version but this is the best release!
Installation went smooth! I really hope that this time everybody reads carefully the readme file since the package has the select OS feature.
Itje, come back to the herald whenever you want. I read somewhere that kaiser was way worse than Herald... I would think it twice
Great rom itje... I've founda little bug that becomes annoying when using CommManager: when I try to slect Settings -> Wireless lan nothing happens :?

My tytn2 is the best device/phone I ever held in my hands.
So does this rom have the keyboard and stuff working correctly? I think it was a problem in the past, if I remember right. Just curious because I just had to hard reset my phone because it's being stupid, so if this rom is (close to) bug free, I will probably flash to this instead.

If you have a P4350, and its default language is english. There is no issue
What messed up with soft keyboard was the softkeyboard from touch dual, and I didnt include it in this release.
If you want it, get the cab. The same applies to other programs that ppl wants that is not in this release.

To be honest I don't really know what touch dual is, so I'm sure I could do without it. I've been running the regular t-mobile rom with just the page pool change and a few programs (htc home, etc), and suddenly started getting this problem where my send button didn't work right and my phone would make some weird noises. I just did a hard reset and it seems to have fixed that, so while I'm at it I might as well add a nice new rom.
I know you've been working on roms for quite a while here, and I was holding off because of not wanting to re-do everything, but now since I had to start fresh, I might as well add something like this.
Thanks for all of the hard work you put into this stuff. I'm definitely going to give it a try.

I have L26 V9 6.1 professional rom...and i am having trouble using third party on screen keyboards. Ive downloaded and installed cootek touchpal, pocketcm keyboard and htc touch qwerty and none of them work. I have installed the sipchanger app also to make the onscreen keyboard stick after a soft reset but i cant even get the keyboard to come on the screen after i instal them succesfully, I go to start > settings input and once i choose the new keyboard, usually in WM 6.0 the keyboard would show up then i would need to use sip changer to make it stick....but when im in input settings the keyboards wont even show up on the screen. I dunno if this is a rom problem and i should post this in the rom section but is their another sip application i can use to make keyboards show up? sip changer isnt working for me but when i used duttys 6.1 apr 29 rom , my keyboards worked so i duunno whats up with the v9 rom......can someone help me figure this out so i can get an on screen keyboard to work...this rom didnt come with another third party app keyboard so i desperatly need another on screen keyboard other then this really small default white one...someone plz help
SIP keyboards
Same thing happenning to me. I have tried different third party .cabs and everything seems fine with the installation, but when I go to select the diamond keyboard nothing happens. Even if I use SIPchanger. It will do nothing.....
I got to work once, but then it stopped again. Some help please.
Holy Crap. What the hell!?
Seriously guys, If you posted this in Leo's V9 Thread. You would have gotten the answer.
Plus I know for darn sure that there are multiple answers in the v9 thread on how to do it.
You know how long that thread is? how long do we have to keep reading crap just so that we can get a decent answer? Why not just save us the trouble and tell us the answer here?
Well I'll search for it since I'm not lazy... but it would have been better if someone actually responded to this thread with a real answer.

The problem with your theory, is that others may have the same issue in the future. Then, when they go the the rom thread to which the problem pertains, they can't find the answer because it is in a whole other sub-forum instead of being in the rom thread.
If you are having issues with a rom, go to that thread and post your issue. Then when a fix is found, it is in the rom thread for future users to find.
I appreciate your frustration, but it is for the betterment of the community for the problems and fixes to be posted in the rom thread to which they pertain.
Thank you for understanding.
Hi there... im pleased with myself for having dumped the stock ROM (4 Raws) and then going through the HSPL, which i checked is good!!
ive got my touch to use WiFi and not 3G when using the net at home even tho im on Orange Uk which is supposed to be set to 3g only etc
but i want to got WM 6.5 but am so unsure of which version to use... tbh i can seem to find out which release has what functions, no language stated as i read some where spanish or something lol!
i just see V12, V13 V14 to download etc no real explanations as to the content... Well not for a novice anyways..
so i know it may have been asked before but would someone (or many) please point me in the direction of something that is stable with no known major issues (such as wifi not working or something) and looks nice/fucntions smoothly...
if possible!
thank you so much to all that have helps via the modding topics and all those that reply here!
thanks!
Dave
A lot is down to personal preference
I have Jade Overloaded WM65 OS 5.21806 OEM 2.33.721.1 on my device, try it see how it goes if you don't like it try another.
go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524102
can i simply put a rom over the top of the other then??
i am a real novice but trying to learn been on here hours going through dumping and the hspl... slowly but surely!
there are a few areas still im still in the dark about...
1) i regedit all the time on pcs and lappys etc but how do you on the fone?
2) still a bit vague on how to actually install the roms...
i have jade customRUU, but i read that was for just updating the splash and something else without installing a whole rom? i could be well wrong but im sure i did read that!
just not sure what to do tbh! lol!
thank you so much for your rom suggestion and if you could shed any light on my other qu's i'd appriciate it so much!
thanks again!
Dave
Yes you just flash it over old rom, its like upgrading a pc it wipes all personal stuff etc
to edit registry you need prog like total commander
go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514406 you will find all you need to flash new roms on your phone
My advice for WM6.5 is to wait for the official Microsoft release, that is September 2009 (hopefully). All of WM6.5 ROMs on this site are beta, so they all have bugs. From all of them i'll recommend pdaviet's v14, but it's only my personal opinion.
If you still want to flash, just read this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514406
and knock yourself out!
Good luck!
thanks lex i went with flubs recommendation and while its great there are some things im not too keen on!
i love the wifi side of things and how thats a priority over using the 3g etc
still cant get the weather to function tho... as you say im sure things will improve once the official release comes
having same probs with weather myself.
like lex said all are beta and have some bugs, you just gotta find one your happy with for me personaly its Jade Overloaded WM65 OS 5.21806 OEM 2.33.721.1 the weather function is no prob I will sort it out hopefully but if not I can live with it I will just remove it from home screen LOL
yeah still working out how to do things... being my 1st wm system...
wanna change the order in start menu..
quick link/button to turn wifi on/off
change the homescreen both features and order...
change the background as that is a little disappointing lol
i was looking at the manila 2d is it? but seen so many people having issues with it im not sure i wanna install it!
lol lots of reading searching to do :-( haha!
If you flashed the overloaded rom I suggested then you have touch flo installed you need to go to settings / today items tab and select touchflo
if you wanna change order in start menu you can select and hold an item menu will opo up saying move to top
hi flub!
seems i was running with Windows Default... which i actually liked.. but if i select something else that deselects :-(
i just have touchflow selected and pressed ok... i like the layout gonna take some gettin used to! lol
i went to the weather options removed what was there and selcted add to be presented with a full list of towns etc...
selected the one closest to me.. it updated and is working!!!!
pitty the default wont work tho! will run with the touch system from now then!
thank you so much! your help/advice is very appriciated!

you can use a registry editor then navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\OEM\
Under the registry key, create a new DWORD value with value name as SMSInboxThreadingDisabled and set it value data to 1.
or here is a cab file to disable sms conversation http://www.ziddu.com/download.php?uid=a6uanZema7OelOKnZqqhkZSrY6ybl5mo6
