HTC ROM not closing apps? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

FIXED: Sorry ... my noobish self didn't set the "End programs by Tapping 'X'" option in task manager and I haven't figured out how to delete my post, yet!
Finally gave up on Palm and switched to the Tilt(HTC ROM). I'm just getting used to a Windows Mobile device.
Before I get flamed, I did a LOT of reading and haven't come across this, yet, so I'm posting:
Tupisdin very nicely provided the SIM Unlock code. I used HardSPL for the SID unlock and I flashed the shipped HTC ROM earlier this evening without bricking the phone (whew!).
But now my OS doesn't seem to want to close my applications. Java, Google Maps, SMS/MMS and even the File Explorer don't seem to close when I click on the "X". They seem to stay open in the oh so convenient Task Manager drop down in the upper-right corner of the Today screen. And I have to close it from there.
I've tried soft resets but to no avail. Is there something I'm missing?
Mahalo!

Starting Out..

Okay so my AT&T Tilt is coming in later this week, and I'd like to learn how to customize it (change the today screen). I've been looking through a lot of websites / threads here in this forum, but I'm still confused as to how everything works.
So I would like to turn my today screen into the same exact one that's displayed here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ATOM_USER_THEMES
And I would like to ask, is that the same one that's displayed here, but just with different icons?: http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/ph...cab-files-all-devices-14-10-a.html#post147780
So basically I'm asking for step-by-step instructions on what to download+install first. ^^; So according to the 2nd link I posted above-- I should install the 'Schen's 6 Button HTC Home today screen plugin' first, then install the 'Customization plugin', and then voila I can go and change all the icons and such just like in the image below, and that's all? (Because if it's that simple, what's with all the stuff here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344533 and what is the KaiserTweak program for?)

Two more questions:
1) When the instructions say 'install it to your device', where exactly do I install it into? Do I create a new folder/directory?
2) How do I "soft reset" ?
I need clarification. Thanks!
Thats HTC Home with Htc Home Customizer fairly straightforward stuff which you'll learn when you get your device.
Anyhow, I believe this is the best forum to learn how to customize and improve your device.
If I were you I'd start reading the link below and once you get your device you'll figure out how to install applications.

read the wiki first....it'll solve a lot of inquiries...for me at least when i first started out
in regards to ur question...it installs to the phone's onboard memory and it will create a folder...for me its in my device>program files
second answer: soft reset is when u use ur stylus and poke thru the hole at the bottom of the phone

thats the link regarding different resets

Word completion not functioning.

Hello folks.
Since a recent hard reset, the word completion function seems to have stopped working. This is annoying when writing the content of a text or email and a right pain when trying to put the recipient's name in.
It's all switched on in Settings > Input > Word completion, so I don't have a scooby what to do.
Any suggestions?
You'll have to build up a word usage history again before it'll start to work. I find the same thing happens with my TyTN II after a hard reset and it affects web form submissions for me - things like place names on travelines website. Give it time and the amnesia will subside
1) If you are using Death's ROM's, those were set to suggest zero words for some reason; install KaiserTweak and change the setting
2) If you have installed KaiserTweak you may have set it to zero
3) If you have installed KaiserTweak and chosen to enable "XT9" that stops autocomplete
Any of these sound right?
Many thanks to you both for helping.
Kiwi, I should've made it clear that I was getting NO words suggested whatsoever - neither words I had used myself or those in the Kaiser's built-in lexicon (pesky US spellings and all!)
As it happened, it was the XT9 in Kaiser Tweak suggested by jdmba that was the problem.
I disabled it, soft reset and now I'm back in the game!
Again, many thanks to you both.
Hi people,
i have likely the same problem.. the word completion do not work
i use the Block Recognizer

and the setup for the autocompletion is enable ->
i dont have installed "KaiserTweak" but i use the "Ultimate-X2.V8" so maybe is included but where found this WT9 think ?
i have found this ->
but i dont see any option to turn it off.
thx people

I would like it too if anyone has it. An OEM version to cook into a ROM would be even better...
Look there...
Look in this thread (first post, under "HERE THE CABS"). It's from AthineOS and the rar contains some cabs...
also, after you download the cab you may want to read the whole thread before you install it on your kaiser

yup unlees its been changed it could lead to a hard reset!!! from what I read i've not tried it myself!!!
I can get the plugin to enable without freezing under the new hyperdragon rom, but nothing but a different background seems to show up, and in the 'today' settings it is called Titanium i believe. So nothing useable yet. Just wait a bit
Looking forward too didn't realize they used the chome config icons
The HTC Home works on PDA Corners Ulimate rom V17...but you can only scrolll using the hardware buttons. I stuck with the manila 2d that was cooked in. Super fast.
Well it will be nice when someone gets this working correctly. What ever happened to that web interface? Has that been leaked and cabbed yet?

i think i solved the text notification problem for the tilt!

this is for everyone that have the tytin 2 or att tilt, (samething) i have had a problem with my phone failing to notify me by sound and vibrate after a few sms msgs. i have read on here that a lot of you have had the same problem. someone came to the conclusion that it may be an issue with the type of opera that you may have. well for my case i dont use the opera browser. i have come to find out so far that my phone no longer has this problem anymore due to a program i put on it. its a very usefull program that pretty much rids ur phone of the B/S. its called "Pocket Mechanic" i will upload it at the end of this. ok when you put it on your phone your going to want to run "notification queue" this checks for duplicates, dangling items, and outdated notifications that may exist due to bugs or improper data synchronization. it may also work on other ppc i just only own the tilt so im not sure. hope this helps everyone out i just know that my phone has been notifying me everytime now.
ok sorry everyone for some reason everytime i try to upload it, it keeps saying UPLOAD FAILED.
Ill keep trying
{EDIT} ok i got it to work have fun with it. ITS for wm6 or wm6.1

ummm, you can't post warez on this site. This cab has a serial number included which is basically, well against site policies and EULA.

could anyone plz point out where to get Chome?

Hello,
I'v been searching like a mad man, trying to find a cab or any other sort of installation to implement Chome afterwords on my x2 ultimate build 6.5 V11.
it is supposed to be cooked in the rom but I'v flashed reflashed, restored and re-configured, somehow it just wont appear on my tools nor my today screen.
I really like the Chome today screen, with all its features, but untill now I am unable to find a way to implement it on my phone.
is there a way? and if yes, could somebody plz direct me to the correct place to get it?
thanks a billion.
cheers,
Remen
Chome is the Windows Default in 6.5. Maybe you have Touchflo (Manila) enabled on your ROM? Just go to Settings/Today/Items and just tick Windows Default.
I'v got something like this :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
but without the two buttons at the bottom of the screen.
what I would like and had before with a earlier version of the same ''publisher'' is
now on a bright moment, just a few minutes ago, reading your comment about the windows default which I have running, is it titanium that brings me the userinterface from the last picture?
the reason I am confused is because by the looks of it, the cabs to install these features, should be cooked in the rom, but I might be wrong, I can't really figure out if it is supposed to be there or not, I got this for the rest great rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519715`
thanks for any help offered.
Ask in your ROM thread about the settings. Titanium is just another name for CHome. Titanium Weather will have its own configuration somewhere.
