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:

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.

Haha, same here!!
So I've heard a lot of people stating they've "Upgraded to WM6.1", and I'm just wondering:
Does this mean they've flashed to schap's (or another WM6.1, sorry I can't remember anymore of the top of my head) WM6.1 ROM or have they got a MS standard ROM from Microsoft? Is there a standard WM6.1 ROM available for the Kaiser (not one that's been cooked)?
Thanks in advance for your patience with my uber noob-ness.
Cheers
There's no standard WM6.1 from Microsoft (not one that we can download any how).
I've upgraded to one of Dutty's Beta 6.1 roms (it's private, hopefully a full release will be out soon). But Schaps should be OK for now.
Cheers Dave. Always nice to clarify things.
i cant seem to get iGO 2006, iGO 2008 (prerelease), or MioMap to work after flashing duttys wm6.1 rom.
was anyone else with this rom able to get gps to work?
hey, after i flashed to duttys 6.1, it took a long time to make a gps connection. i ended up flashing back to one of duttys 6.0 roms for that and also the lack of voice dialing...i think its something with all 6.1 roms...
omar
i had the same problem i just changed radio rom then the gps worked straight away.
KAIS_Radinly_1.64.08.21_CustomRUU
first i would say, next time it's better to ask the questions in the rom thread where the problem belongs to... (no offense....!)
second it's a known issue with igo and some WM6.1 versions - not only dutty's versions (with dutty's March 4 edition it's working,
with the March 8 editon it was working with HTC Home music tab disabled (or disabling HTC Home in general) for me...strange, but true
peace brothers
ask the questions in the rom thread where the problem belongs to...

sorry i just noticed that most posts in the rom section are useful posts containing a rom or file, while in this section its about half attachments and half questions. so i figured i would just post where there is already questions.
thanks for the replies, but right now dutty's website is down so i cant get any radios.
i dont even know if the gps doesnt work, cuz i havent even been able to test it, as i said, the programs just wont launch. i click the .exe and the little loading thing appears for a second and nothing happens.
so until duttys site is back up..lets continue this thread?
who out there has dutty's 6.1 rom? are you using gps? what program? thanks.
Im using the March 4th edition with radio 1.64.08.21 and I have 4 programs that use the GPS, Tomtom, Google maps, the GPS today plugin and VITO's Astro Navigator. They all connect and get a fix between 4-30 sec's
Ok i found the solution, and a thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368179
with the current version of dutty's rom you have to disable the music tab on the htc home plugin, i dont know why, its pretty gay, but it works.
im gonna try and install another htc home and see if it helps.
Radio ROMs

Hi, I know this thread won't last long, but...
I really need someone to recommend a rom/s that I can use spb Mobile shell. I tried it with duttys 6.5 r12 rom, but it keeps crashing and dying.
Other people asking for which rom to use have been told that they need to ask what features they want and I want it to be stable and fast and to be compatible with mobile shell.
From reading other threads similar to mine, it seems noone wants to give any specific advise... so if you think this is the wrong place to ask please please tell me where to ask before you close the thread.
PS. all i want is for someone to say, 'try this one or this one', instead of 'you have to try them all and be the judge yourself'. thanks
I have used miris and onkologs roms and had no issues with spbms. My experience have been best with both of them otherwise too....
i have onkolog superlite 6.5 rom with spb mobile shell... fastest thing i ever seen
whats wrong with the standard 1.56 rom or 1.59 rom if you're gonna put sbp mobile shell on it? the standard ones work fine
@pw120 :
It's working, but he wants the faster one for SPB

Haha, loved it
I have tried heaps of roms, Miri and onkolog were fast, i tried numerous dutty ones but they die horrible deaths for some reason. I used the enrgy rom also.
The best one I tried was B!ch0ns rom from http://htc-touch-hd.forumactif.biz/
unfortunately it is a french ROM.
It was the best rom because there is a problem with all of the roms I have tried, where clicking the windows notification for missed calls or sms's does not load the call registry or sms program no matter how many times you click. (not in B!ch0n or onkolog)
The other problem is that when using the Phone application, the contacts soft button does not work.
Somehow B!ch0n found a workaround for that.
Has anyone used a rom that doesn't have the notification problem after installing mobile shell?
I have spb shell version 3.5. I've faced the notifications problem with energy roms. In dutty's R6 rom, when clicking the soft button for missed calls or contacts, it brings up the spb interface for both.
Bottom line, try this rom.
If you want to find a Lite or Superlite Rom, you can test those one :
- Barbone Rom from JonPatcher
- Lite and Superlite Rom from Onkolog
- The UltraLite from EpiphanyNL
@+
Thing is this has been asked before. Theres even a thread on creating a rom specifically for SPB. Unfortunately its a dutch rom, but Im sure you could change the language easily enough.
Bottom line is all roms will work with SPB, but your looking for a hight performance rom. Plenty of roms already listed above by others, best option would be too try a few of these, especially the lite ones and make your own conclusions. Alternatively there is also SPB threads in software forum. Surely one of these guys would be able to advise you as well.
Either way, I see no point for another thread on a topic already covered and asked before.
Thread closed
I have try the following ROMs and have some problems. Just wonder if anyone has the same problem
Duttys HD WM6.5 Leo Holy Grail R0
--PHM Registry Editor is not working??? It can be scroll up and down but cannot go in any root???
Duttys HD WM6.5 HD Sense 2.1 Holy Grail R0
--Whenever I turn on the phone and message pop up it say zz.exe cannot be open???Anyone know what is the zz.exe program>>>
I have tried both of these roms. With the reg editor it is strange and has the same problem if you install Hd tweak you have to sort of hold the stylus down long enough to register but not long enough for it to pop up the option bubble. There is a reg setting that you can change that eliminates this and changes the touch imput back to normal.
As for the zz message i didnt get this problem and i was using holy grail for about a month and only just installed Energy rom 2.1 win 6.5.1 rom works well and i find 6.5.1 is actually bit more user friendly
How about asking that at Dutty rom topic?
In Registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Touch\Filter]
"MinimumTapTime"=dword:00000000
This is a much comented issue, a little bit of searching, easy to find!
PS: softreset is recomended after registry edit.
Hello
About your second problem, I got the same and told it in dutty's forum about ROM (but without answer).
After two or three days of use, the phone crashes and sometimes auto-hard resets!
thanks all for the help, But I found that both of the rom I mention aren't stable. And I flash with the Dutty's_HD_WM6.5_5_Leo_R7 and all work fine.
Fix мinimal тap тime set it to 0
There is a Fix
The second problem doesn't appear on most peoples phones so maybe a reflash or hard reset could fix it.
As far as stability, i havn't had absolutely any. For me this rom works really really well, has never hanged on me and is the only rom i've ever used continuously for a while so maybe one problem is related to the other?
