Make my Herald look like this (view thread!)

Hey folks!
Yesterday I found an amazing phone on the internet. The HTC Touch. So, as I am not that much into the Herald modding, I could not figure out, which tools or what software they use on that phone.
I got a link to a gallery where some pics about this phone are shown. They show also some pictures about the software they use:
http://www.xonio.com/bildergalerie/HTC-Touch-O2-XDA-Nova-T-Mobile-MDA-Touch-Vodafone-VPA-Touch-Galerie_27532015.html
So please, could someone tell me, what rom here on the board makes my phone look like the HTC Touch and behave like the HTC Touch? I do not expect my phone to be exactly like that, but perhabs its possible to have it a looking a bit like the Touch?
Sorry, if this sounds like a stupid question, but I read through the board and I do not want to break my phone, so I would like to no exactly what rom to use, because so I am able to do only one crack (HardSPL/uspl) ... ^^
Thanks for help!

Whats up... welcome to the forum..... Ummm The interface you are looking for is HTC home (today plugin) ... for the full touch experience you'll want the cube as well. You cant go wrong with open touch biggy 3.0.... its a great place to start

I suggest you go with Open Touch as well. You will get the features that you are looking for.

And many more ofcourse. I have Open Touch V3.0 Biggy and it's even better then the interface on the touch. You Get: HTC Home Screen, Cube ( finger sweeping thing ), Loads of good games and many more.
There are several programs here on the forum to make the phone to your wishes. For example if you want a real nice picture viewing program i suggest you use Slide 2 View by A_C.
Use the search function on the forums and type A_C or slide 2 view. Even the Touch doesnt have this function.
BTW, Welcome to the Forums !

TouchFLO 3D Theme Customizer

Now that we're seeing different colors and designs for the TouchFLO 3D Home screen today plug-in on different versions of the Touch Diamond, if anyone is planning on making a theme customizer that we can use to change these at will...
Please make it extensible enough so that other future and existing applications can be added and changed as well.

AFAIK, there are no ROMs for the branded devices available... When those become available, it'll be far easier to allow for skinning.

How about a project to adapt the remaining Windows Mobile "design look" into the Touchflo3D GUI? Of course tweaking performance at the same time to compensate for it as much as possible.

I was wondering whether to do that... These forums seem to be some of the cleanest (device wise) so keep up the moderating
If and when someone gets there hands on an operator branded device (or an operator ROM), I'll try and work out how the customization takes place...

Agreed.
I would love it if there was something extensible like Schap's Advanced Config, where anyone could customize an XML file or something and have the application load Skin/Theme options (like HTC Home Customizer does) for other applications (including TouchFLO 3D).
So like a hybrid between HTC Home Customizer which will load the proper image files/etc. to the proper places based on what you choose... and the Advanced Config program where you can add custom options by editing an XML file.
Doesn't that sound like a great tool for changing theme/skins for all of these applications?

I would LOVE to reorder the TouchFLO 3D Tabs at least!!!

I would love to change the color of my TF3D theme from o2 but keeping my german version!
When I recieve my XDA I can provide you with the included ROM but the delivery date is delayed.

I'm getting a T-Mob compact IV, dumping the ROM (assuming it's not already done by someone else by then) is near the top of my to-do list.
Anyone who's seen T-Mob's version of TF3D will understand my wish help the progress of a theme customiser!!!
2+ more weeks to go... :-(

Does it all mean that maybe one day it will be possible to add some other items to the TF3D??
I am desperately looking for an application like PocketZenPhone to switch the profiles with one touch!!! I didn't start using my diamond yet only because of this!!! I have to change profiles very often (bluetooth on/off, vibrating with sound and without sound, etc...) and it is really impossible everytime to enter menus!!!
Can someone help me.... please!?!
Bye

Try AEBPlus - it maps your hard ware buttons, I have just one set to turn on wi-fi, and the same button on double pressing to turn on Bluetooth, turn off the same way....

Thanks a lot... I'm going to try if it helps!
It would be better to have 4 or 5 icons like in PZP with different profiles, but also this can help.
Are you sure it works with WM6.1?? Because it is not in the list of compatible devices.
Thanks again!
Urosh

I tried to install AEBPlus but it was unsuccessful...
???
Do someone know why?
Thnx

TouchFLO 3D & other elements
How can I add other elements to the home screen using TouchFLO 3D? Can it be customized somehow?
I want to add todo list just like when not using TouchFLO 3D where it shows remaining tasks to fulfill??

Hi,
I did get an O2 ignito on Tuesday.
I ordered it on Saturday and PMed two of the better known cooks if they wanted a dump (sorry and no names) but not had a reply. They are obviuosly busy.
I did point out though that I had not dumped before and did not have anywhere to upload it to. I did find some threads to do it and it seemed complex.
I have now put on a rom from this forum and am very happy with it. Will donate.
The o2 rom was 1.92.2xx.

HELP ME!! HTC Diamond Phone

Hi guys, i know there are similiar threads out there, but i cannot find a good guide to my question. Please help me out here.
I just got my HTC Diamond yesterday, and had lots, i mean LOTS of difficulty using it.. It too cheem. Haha, so will appreciate any help.
I think it's best to give u my phone infos:
ROM Version : 2.03.707.2 WWE
Speed 528Mhz
Ram size: 192Mb
Windows 6.1
(Need any more info, please ask me.)
Firstly, how do i change the Clock, time format to 12hr, instead of the 24hr clock.
Secondly, How can i turn off GPRS, so i won't have to pay extras in my bills.
Thirdly, SMS is quite difficult, what's the best way to use it with a hand and no stylus.
Fourthly, Is it posible to upgrade the version to 6.5?
Fifth, i saw something abt tweaking, how do i do that? And the only way to lock my phone is the power button is it??
Additional Questions:
There's another question. For example my old contact naming Wei Ming, when transfer to HTC, it change to Ming Wei, HOW TO SOLVE?? This is very important too.
Lastly, when i use MSN, then it import all e emails in my contacts, making it very messy, what can i do?
Please advise how to make my phone to become as user friendly as possible.
Thanks in advance!

Ok first things first yes you can upgrade to 6.5 although it is not officially released you can install it.
there are programs that you would want to install to help you do most of these things. take a look at these 2 threads for programs to help you achieve what you are trying to do.
Themes, Applications and Software <---Diamond sections / Development and Hacking <----General sections
look at Icontact for you contact issue
look for TF3D to configure the themes / wallpaper / and other items in Touch flow.

Any links u can give me to let me dl 6.5?

hi and welcome to XDA
make sure you read this and understand it before you do anything or you might break your diamond
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211

Hey guys, i really encounter alot problem with it. There are many error reprting that make me send same report over n over again.
Then i could not use advance config, after i install, when i launch it, there a error report.
I cannot sync my contacts with the computer too.
Can anyone help me out quick?

Hi,
A way to disable GPRS is an app called NoData MoDaCo. Search the forum for it.
Also If you look in the settings there is a way to disable error reporting .

You have quite the laundry list of questions/issues. However all of them have been asked/answered in various threads around the Diamond (and other) forums. Please use the custom Google search as it is much more reliable then the default vBulletin search engine.
Thank you,

Some Apps: Where can I get them???

Hi guys,
Firstly, I'd like to apologise ahead if i'm posting this in the wrong section.
I have tried looking for these, and others I'm not sure what they're called etc.
Basically, having messed about with some ROMS, and some failing, I've gone back to the HTC stock rom.
Since going onto this, I'm wanting to get a few cool things for it.
Is there anywhere I can get Nitrogen from? Its a nice little music player.
How do I get my phone to have the clock as the flipover "digital" clock, where the numbers fall from the top? - Is this a theme?
Also, I wouldn't mind getting a decent audioboosting program for when I'm on the bus / train for work, as all I can hear is people talking and the noise of the vehicle.
How do I get the Device Updater? The one where it finds applications for your phone, which are pretty cool?
Once again, apologies if this is in the wrong place, but since this is the software section, i thought it justified my posting.
Thank you,
Edited: Since the phone rebooted with the ROM finally installed, i've just found that Windows Live is on.

All can be found via the serach
Except flip clock as is part of TF3D, there are some other homescreen plugins with it like PointUI.

Thanks,
I did have a good look, but I only know what they do, not the actual names.
How do I get TF3D installed? I'd love to have that flip clock back! For some reason, I just love it!

I've just found a pack I downloaded the other day, but the TF3D is showing as Diamond TF3D Config on my Kaiser.
Any ideas where I would find the TF3D for the Kaiser?

our kaisers don't have the necessary drivers to support the 3D animations of TF3D, like the flipping clock. the best thing we can run on them is Manila 2D (TF2D)

So Confused Choosing which rom!!

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

Well Flub you truely are a star!!
