I've looked alot of different places and have gotten multiple different answeres. My girlfriend has the S730 which runs windows mobil6 standard which we all know i have the tilt running wm6 proffesional. I have alot of programs she like like the HTC customizer, slide sound editors, and others but most will not work on her phone because of the windows version. Is there a way to change her wm6 standard to either wm6 professrional and maybe even 6.1 when i comes out.
Why change OS version? Why not to use different programs? I know HTC customizer wont run on WM6 Standard but there is still a way to customize your home screen using another utilities or just by hand.
Change of OS to WM6 Professional - Yes, it's possible but it require someone to do that (like Erofich made it for HTC Star Trek).

Hi,
Since Hermes and Wizard, alongside general information and development & hacking, are starting TouchFLO topics I created this one.
Allthough much work has to be done, at least the TouchFLO theme is available for WM 6 users. Since we don't have that I wonder if it somehow can be made available for WM 5 users like us.

The only thing working on my BA is the .tsk file for the dark theme.
The today plugin won't work because it's made for wm6 using the wm6 sdk (duh!).
UPDATE:
I got the dialer and wireless/connection manager running on my BA!
The problem that I lost all sounds/mic on my device. The connmanager works and the phone make calls. But I can't hear anything and nobody can hear me. There is no beeps from the fone or anysound from programs. The solution I've found is hard-reset. I'll keep trying.
You can download the files from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225
The today plugin still not working.
Ok, the dialer works but smartdialing stops working after first call.
The problem with no sounds from the phone is with the connmanager. Do not install it unless you want your device to be totally silent.
I have installed both the Comm manager and dialer and I have no sound issues, all my sounds work fine!
same here, no problems with the sound.
I do have the smardial problem though.

Wisbar theme
Is there a black wm6 theme that will work with Wisbar 3?
I cant find one...
I will try the conn manager again (which version are you guys using?).
for the wm6 black theme for wisbar, I'm using this one: http://lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9264
touchflo ui will never be available in WM5, also it depends on the HTC touch touscreen driver, if simeone post a hacked one it will be available on the other wm6 devices, but for now no other than HTC Touch Has it. The theme and comm manager and smartdialing work just fine with my rom (slows the device a lot but work,you can not open the options of smart dialing), home today plugin is not compatible with WM5
everyone is crazy about htc touch, if you want it that bad just buy it
also not mentioned things in touch rom are the new windows live messenger (10.6.00.28.2700) and the new arcsoft mms 4.0.31.21) IA Zip(1.20.27526.0), Smart Dialing(2.5.27526.0), Sim Manager(6.13), Sim Access Profile, Adobe Reader LE, HTC Audio Manager, HTC Audio Today Plugin, (ported them all to wm5, and will include them in my next rom or as cabs). All of you are crazy about the gui stuff (which is not working well in wm5) but forget the important things
The today plugin would be nice but not really necessary. The comm manager have a better aparence and so the dialer.
My dialer displays the options for smart dialing but the problem is after I make or receive a call smart dialing will stop working so I need so softreset it.
As for the cube flip thing I'm not interest in it.
Basically I like the gray color scheme, the way comm manager looks and the dialer. The today plugin I got a mokup working with rltoday but it was too slow to change pages as it uses mortscript to replate the rltoday config file and reload the app.

I actually sold one of my BAs march 06 and got a wizard nib. You're missing out on a lot of sweet new items on wm6.. heres a shot of the htc touch in action

I will be looking forward your next release. What I'm saying about the touch ui it's just about the colors and visuals. If it's possible to change the colors from our current conn manager and have the dial pad like the touch one (bigger keypad) that would be nice.
As far buying the "touch" it's not a possibility right now ($) and the only reason I have the BA is because a friend gave it to me.

I know it is sort of GUI, but when Helmis WM6 ROM comes out (thanks so much Helmi), will it be possible to port the actual touchFLO interface where you dont need a stylus to read email and suchlike to the BA in WM6?
thanks,
hardingt0110
When that ROM comes out the possibilities will be the same as for other devices running WM6 so search other forum sections where available touch apps are discussed. As for the stylusless inbox control I believe the hardware upgrade would be required for its proper work.

I cant find anything usable in other threads, they're just speculating on whether the BIOCUBE will work. Can anyone provide a cab, or some other form of installing it (this is assuming we are using Helmi's WM6 BA ROM)?

there's quite a few actually
chk out the Lakeridgesoftware website in the forums they have a skins and themes section that has qwuite a few for free download, just make sure you get a QVGA version.
Also a quick google search for "4PDA.ru wisbar" will give you a russian site that has quite a few on there that aren't on the lakeridge site, and a efw that are. =)
enjoy

Hi Marius -
You are looking at two different pieces of software on that phone.
The first one is the HTC Home screen for the TyTNII, which HAS been copied over to the Trinity. You can tell if that is the home screen used in the ROM because it will usually be shown as HTC Home Kaiser or something similar. You can also install this using a standalone CAB file. Search the board to find the cab, it's in the Trinity WM6 portion of the board.
The second one is a piece of software called Touchflo. The real Touchflo software requires that the touchscreen hardware be the same as the Kaiser or the HTC Touch. Those two phones use different touchscreen hardware (physical chips and the digitizer screen) than the Trinity. So, no one has been successful using the real Touchflo software on the Trinity, and probably never will.
However, there have been some attempts to get the same functions from other software. I've seen something called alphatouchflo, and there are other packages. Note that they do not have all of the same functionality. For example, I haven't seen any of them that could allow use f the scrolling feature to replace sidebar scrolling. I've only seen good scrolling of a third-party contacts list (see PocketCM as an example). This software is also available in a standalone CAB file if you like.
There is a thread devoted explicitly to using Touch Flo on the Trinity in the WM 6 section. If you take a minute or two you can easily find it.
Good luck!
Mike
yes... but i`m looking for rom. the rom have htc home screen instaled in it.
and in this video the scrolling works perfect... i read on the htc p3600 this "tochflo" have some problems. but on other devices these cooked rom with "touchflo" work good. i still looking and waiting for a good rom wm6(not a aplication "touchflo"). now i have wm5.

Hi Marius -
The other devices that use Touchflo have different hardware which is why the Touchflo works for them. The device shown in the video is the HTC Prophet series, which uses the same touch screen as the Kaiser/TyTN II (which is different form the Trinity). You will not find any software or ROMs that can run the Touchflo software on the Trinity. As far as CAB software compared to a ROM, the only difference is in the method of installing. It doesn't matter if you install the software using a CAB file or if it is already included in a ROM, except that you can remove software installed using a CAB if you don't like it.
I suggest you continue watching the thread about Touchflo on the Trinity in the WM6 folder. That thread contains the most current information about using Touchflo on the Trinity.
Mike

ok.. thanks for informations
I have been using SecondToday in order to access my Today plugins in addition to using Rhodium Manila. Recently I discovered Manila Today Page, so I no longer need SecondToday for this. I would, however, like to use Rhodium Manila with the MTP, and somehow also use Titanium (also known as CHome), the standard Windows Mobile 6.5 interface.
I was able to do this previously using TFDetacher, however some functionality of Manila was lost (specifically, BT AVRCP). This solution would offer me the ability to use both interfaces as needed, without losing any functionality (hopefully). I have tried to simply add "Windows Default" as the only item in SecondToday, and, while it does show at startup, I can't get back to it after Manila starts (I have a video of this, but no way to post it).
Does anyone have any suggestions, or know of any other software I can use to accomplish this feat?
I would also like to know the answer to this..
I tried setting up secondToday this weekend with no luck..maybe this is a compatibility issue with wm6.5 and secondToday?

I haven't tried it much, but I pretty sure its compatibility issue between tf3d and windows default. Both of these plugins are designed to deactivate\override any other active plugin when they are chosen which doesn't make for good compatibility. I'm sure somewhere there is a way, just hasnt' been found yet that I know of.

Well, at least all my hopes and dreams aren't COMPLETELY crushed, lol.
At one point, I was actually able to use Rhodium Manila, CHome, standard Today, and SPB Mobile Shell 3.0 all at the same time. Actually, I could still do it, but I prefer the HTC Music Player (because I can use BT AVRCP w/it, and it won't become the focused window like WMP), though I like that WMP has a separate volume control.
Well, if there's a way, I'm sure someone will figure it out soon enough. It could even be me, who knows?
I have been trying to figure something like this out myself. I am currently running a stock 6.1, with MS 3.5. I had dcd's 2.27 ROM but was running into a couple problems, mainly DRM doesn't seem to like 6.5 ROMs and battery drain. While I was running 6.5, I never even ran TF3D, but instead just ran Titanium and MS 3.5. However, since I am back with 6.1, am back to running MS 3.5, and TF3d. My setup is running pretty smooth, great data connection and battery life, but I really miss Titanium. If anyone has a cab for it (just the main today screen part), or know of a way I could possibly get that to run that with 6.1, I would be more than willing to play around trying to get it all to work together.
EDIT: Oops, didn't see how old this thread was, sorry >.<
I really like all these windows mobile 6.5 roms that are popping up for experia, but i cannot justify using one without the ability to use WVGA fix. I use Picodrive and Finalburn along with Tomtom 6 and some other software, none of which work without WVGAFix3 which itsself is said not to work with 6.5.
There must be a load of people now with 6.5 roms, that like this software so how does everybody else do it? Or does everybody really just stop using their favorite software in favor of a 6.5 rom?
I have found nothing in the WVGAFix thread.
C'mon guys.....i cant be the only one faced with this dilemma?
Even if you use WM 6.5 (like me ;-) ) you can use WGAFix3. It doesnt give a black bar after use - but the Apps work after activating WGAFix - and before they didnt worked.
Have fun.

Hello,
I am also looking for a program like WVGAFix work on my WM6.5, I have a program need resolution 240 x 320 to be worked on my WM6.5 machine with resolution 480 x 800.
Please help! Thanks!
If anyone comes up with anything let me know as well ....
Maybe you should ask in the General section? Surely X2 is not the only WV mobile with WVGA resolution. And tell us if you find anything.
(I don't have my X2 at the moment and my Kaiser has QVGA resolution.)
I LOVE the new Manila 2.5 i think its a step in the right direction but theres a problem.
The messaging application with it is riddled with bugs i am persistently having to soft-reset in order to sort it out. At the moment im working around problems by always creating a new SMS when i need to send them but its extremely awkward.
So heres the question, is it possible to cook a ROM with the standard WinMo messaging application instead of the new Manila 2.5 one?
Can i get a show of support and if its possible maybe we can see some/a Manila 2.5 ROM with standard WinMo messaging app.
P.S. If im cluttering up this forum and this should be somewhere else move it/lock it and tell me
I never tried it. But I think they might be dependent on each other.
I am by no means a chef and dont know much about that side of things but i would think it was possible.
If they are dependent on each other, then no. Unless we use a patched version of 2.5, but then the functionality wont be the same.
I do not think they need each other to work. HTC Message works well with no TF3D or TF3D2.1 so I am guessing arcsoft will work with 2.5
I have not had a chance to try it yet but it is on my list so I will soon.
There is already a solution for this ...
I use the Energy Rom Genesis with 2.5 Manila WM 6.5
After that I followed this little tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556614&page=1
I SMS trough the WM SMS function, without using the HTC software for it...
