HTC Tilt - Any good tools, tricks, fixes, etc? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I had this phone for almost a year and only now I stumbled on this site and upgrading. Forgive me if I don't know all the proper terms\lingo. I upgraded to a new ROM only a few days ago. I was wondering if there are any other cool things I can do to or with my phone? Yes I tried searching but it's hard to search for something you don't know exist. Most of these I just stumbled upon. So far I did the stuff below. The camera fixes didn't help too much. The video still comes out laggy.
Also a stupid question but is the HTC Tilt the same as a HTC TyTNII? The picture looks the same. My phone only says at&t in the front and HTC on the back.

cab files VS. ROM downloads

Is there any way that I can just get the htc today cab and the 3D Touch flow cab for (Tilt Kaiser) Im not comfortable installing a new rom to get these items. thanks Jami J
Did you try searching? It's in the Latest Cabs for Kaiser thread that's stickied at the top of this forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1678291&postcount=10
Yes I hit that thread all ready I pulled some stuff from there all ready. (htc music player and flash lite 2.0 that is the style of download that I am looking for. I just downloaded the Kaiser tweaks v0.4 that program worked wounders for fixing the screen locking up (dim) after a phone call. and activating the HSPHA has brought the "H" to my tilt for the first time since I have owned the Tilt. I wish I could do 1/3 of the stuff you guys know how to do. You take a good prouduct and make it 100% better for the user Jami j.

Any reccomendations for a new user?

As title really , i've had a WM2003 based PDA before and a couple of S60 mobiles in the past.
But this is my first PDA/Phone device.
I have the O2 version of the TYTN2 (XDA Stellar)
Can anyone reccomend me any essentials I should be looking at getting.
Looking for a decent web browser and any other Utilizes that are recommended
Also is there an easy way to switch between running apps without going back to the today screen first?
recommendation is to search + read the gweni
Hmm while its an interesting read most of it seems to be concerned around changing things in the Firmware/Rom.
There's a couple of useful things like a stopwatch/countdown timer listed but I didn't see anything that resembled a list of Recommended apps (ideally freeware)
I feel your pain. It's tough to find a list of recommended apps. I may actually put a list together this weekend. I got my Tilt about 2 weeks ago and I have my list of apps. Actually, I'll start:
Audio Player: HTC Audio Manager or Windows Media Player
Backup: Sprite Backup and PIM Backup
Calculator: I like the skin that comes with dutty's ROM
Camera: HTC Camera
Compression: PocketRAR or HTC ZIP
Config Tools: KaiserTweak and Schap's Advanced Config
Cube: Slither's Cube (I don't like the Cube much, but this one is pretty damn nice)
Dialer: DualTouch dialer
File Manager: Resco or Total Commander
IM: Palringo or IM+
Maps/GPS: Google Maps and/or Windows Live Search
Picture Album: HTC Album
Registry Editor: Regeditor
Screen Capture: pocket Screen
Start Menu Replacement: QuickMenu
Other:
HTC Action Screen
HTC Home
HTC Home Customizer (I like v1.0 and don't like v.1.05b)
HTC QuickGPS
HTC Comm Manager, 6 button, Schap's style
HTC SIM Manager
HTC Voice Recorder
HTC Field Status
Sipchange
Can't find a good one:
Battery monitor
Task manager
Media player (TCPMP is a popular one, but there are a lot of them)
Office - I keep using Pocket Outlook for Contacts, Email, Appointments, and all that other jazz. There are other apps out there like FingerFriendlyFriends but strangely I'm happy with Pocket Office.
Does this help?

Start with Kaiser tweaks. That will rid your phone of most annoyances. Read all info on Touch Flo, Touch Flo Cube, Htc Home Customizer. Read the Wiki here and on htcwiki.com. Everyone here needs different things from their phones. And different ways to access those things. Read read read, follow links. One search will take you to another search to another.
I got my Tilt in early Nov came accross this site shortly thereafter, read and listened and searched and did not have a need to ask a question until April, my first post. Lots of info here for the grasping. No offense to anyone here, but a list of all " apps " isn't necessarily a list of what you want or especially what you " need".
I'll add one more to this:
Voice Commands: Microsoft Voice Commander or Cyberon Voice Commander
Wow isn't this post repeated every week or so?

Hey I am a Tilt owner too. Why don't you start reading. Start with the stickies in each section of the kaiser forum. Then start reading all the newly posted threads. When you have a question, search, if you cannot find your answer then ask. Good Luck.
Yea there are a lot of softwares out there. Goto SPB SOftware House.com, Resco.net and many other sites.. They all have some nice must haves.
Regards,
Carty..
Have a look in my signature, hope thats helps, still very new myself, but this is what I've found so far.
Sadly there isn't 1 place to find all your apps, most of them are scattered everywhere.
I really like a few apps that i have.
vita audio recorder
line rider mobile
WM torrent
opera 9.5
Really depends what you want to use your Kaiser for to be honest.
Mine include, but are not limited to:
David Andrs pRSSreader
Namco PacMan
Birdsoft All-In Hold'Em Poker
LEM's TrackMe
QuickMark
VisualGPSce
MacroMedia Flash
WinMsoft Handy Sniffer
A_C S2U2

Opera
Cloudyfa EsmertecJbed Java Environment
Opera Mini 4.1 java applet.

Pocket GNUBoy
Microsoft Voice Command
Modaco Vario III DeBrand
Reperion05

kaisertweak
Check some of these places out. It'll be a good start for ya.
www.sbsh.net
www.spbsoftwarehouse.com
www.resco.net
www.handango.com
tiltsite.com
This is a good place to start. Once you get into the phone & figure out how things work, then you'll become more knowledgeable about what will & what wont work.

Manila?

SO...here i am...another newbie with another question which probably has been answered a thousand times... what can you do...
Anyway...just had to hard reset my HTC Touch Diamond and thought that maybe i should freshen it up a bit...ive read that there is a "new" update for touch flo...is it called manila or am i misinformed?
And how the hell am i supposed to install it on my precious mobile?
Is there a thread with a tutorial? Would greatly appreciate it if anyone could answer these questions...feel free to call me newb or slow!
TF3D...
Manila is HTC's 'project' name for TF3D (TouchFlo 3D). You can't officially get a newer version of TF3D without updating your ROM. Having said that, there are some manila mods knocking around this forum, but they're taken from Touch HD, or Touch Diamond 2 (work in progress).
The best thing to do is just make sure you're using a recent ROM, either official or cooked - that way you'll get the latest manila. It won't be any different than the one your device came with, though it may respond better (ie. faster)
Read the 'Themes, applications and software' & 'Diamond ROM development' forums, they will give you the most information
wiki - http://wiki.xda-developers.com/ for all such info
thx a lot guys! i just downloaded the ROM update from the support page...
it actually feels a little smoother now! and finally a good solution to the answer and hang up buttons when the phone rings... hated to hang up when the phone isnt out of the pocket yet
