Yes it does. This is answered in other threads titled "Touch flo" or something similar.
I'm speaking to the AT&T version specifically.
Forgive me if I missed it, but I haven't found anything that says it will have these two features, which are present on the HTC-branded Tytn II. The screenshots on modaco.com do not show an HTC home screen, either.
Can you please confirm?
Okay,according to Paul at modaco.com the AT&T Tilt/8925
WILL have Touchflo (finger scrolling and panning) and
WILL NOT have the HTC home screen (big clock, shortcuts).

Is there a way to get HTC Home Screen without changing roms?

Yes just install the .cab. you can find it in the hermes area.
What about the Windows Live software? I heard that AT&T wasn't including that with their stock ROM.

Same situation. If the ATT rom doesn't include it you can download the .cab file from the hermes area or wait until it's posted here. I use several programs and add ons that the ATT rom doesn't include but it's pretty easy to just install these my self once I have the basic rom set up.
can someone please post the cab file? i cant find it in the Hermes section.
you can find it here:

Being that you can get rid of bloatware and install cabs for missing programs you want on a tilt, is there still a big advantage to flashing (speed or otherwise)?

Trying out both at&t shipped compare to some HTC roms, speed isn't too much different. I skip the customization in the beginning, and I get a pretty decent rom. Seems a tiny bit more stable than HTC roms.
HTC home screen 6 button
Here is the HTC home screen with six buttons.
OK so I searched your bar and google and what not and I have come with so much info like flash the rom and dump all att software. So let me make this quick and easy
How do i get the TyTN II home screen weather and contacts and dialer all in one like if i bought it from the UK on the ATT Tilt.
Note I want a complete install that does and install everything automatically.

Hello all,
For Canadian Rogers/FIDO subscribers, like myself, Name display on non- rogers or Fido phone does not work. However, with the help of pandaboyy and others, they were able to get it working on the Diamond1 and Touchpro1. Please see:

I would love to get Name display working on my new diamond2, I have talked to pandaboyy and because he doesn't have the diamond2, he was not able to help me.
My suggestion is: I would appreciate any chef cooking for the D2 to implement their method to get the name display to work. This would help all Canadian susbcribers like myself.

how can I get someone to help me with it? I'd really appreciate any help...

Try using this .CAB. It should be universal for most HTC-based WinMo 6 devices, as it works on my Xperia.
Hope that helps!
It did not work :'(
would anyone know why?

The only way we could get this to work on a Topaz or a Rhodium is for Rogers to release one of the devices. Name display worked on the Diamond, Raphael and Xperia because Rogers released a Rogers-branded Diamond, and the rilphone.dll from the stock Rogers ROM was used to get CNAP to work in all Diamond, Raphael and Xperia ROM's. However, the despite having most of the same hardware (processor, memory, etc.) specs, the Rhodium and the Topaz are different and that's why the rilphone.dll from the Rogers Diamond ROM won't work in them.

I am running LEO CELL EVO 4 Rom on my Tilt2. SO i gave the Rogers Name Display cab link above (under scar45 post) worked on my Tilt 2. Well not 100%. It works flawlessly with WM Phone dialer skin. However with HTC Sense Phone skin, during the incoming call it only shows the number however as soon as you answer it, the name shows up. it also shows up under the call logs. SO i am guessing for the HTC Phone dialer it must have something to do with the resolution of the phone canvas? any ideas anyone?
the rilphone.dll in the cab works with the tilt2. battery drain is normal with other rilphone.dll. it did not brick my phone. I will experiment more and let u guys know

Well, I did the same thing you did, and I get the same results. Strange that the name is displayed in Sense only after you answer the call...
Hopefully someone will be able to figure it out.

So far no one has gotten it to work properly using an HTC dialer. If you don't mind using the WM dialer, then it works just fine.
Thanks, I did get it working with WM Dialer.
For other noobs, here is how to switch from HTC to WM dialer:

Hi!
I am new to this forum but not new to HTC phones.
I just got a new HTC TD2 from ATT as the ATT Pure.
Great phone! and as of this Morning the MS Application store is working great.
questions I am sure many of us will have so might need a sticky
1. Bloatware - how do you get ride all the silly ATT apps/stuff?
2. if I load a new ROM from this sight will it be equal to or better then the RTM of 6.5? basically I don't want to loose the underlying features I just want generic + Radios + store (3G/4G)
3. if I load a ROM from here can I every go back to the factory ROM?
4. How do I: App-unlock, Phone-Unlock (if any) (not SIM unlock)?
5. Donation link - were is that!?
thanks in advance!

Search is still king around here. That being said, there are unlock tools available. Check out the ROM development thread.
So far it looks like you are stuck with bloatware unless you flash a different rom.
Good hunting.

Thanks FlyBoy,
So you have a Pure did you reload it?
Not yet, still playing with the stock rom, I've installed my favorites to add to the flavor like Youtube, Wifi sharing and a few from the new MS Marketplace.
So far I'm happy with the ROM, but knowing me, I'll probably end up flashing it tonight.

Please let me know how the flashing goes, what ROM/problems, I know several of us would love to know!
there was a person on the bloatware thread that mentioned they flashed and got more performance. I don't want to loose features like the radios, the MS Store, and Exchange integration. but what I do want is Youtube, Flash, etc. I understand it is supported. the new Opera browser is pretty good and the new IE browser is no sloutch. I don't like the Mail/SMS list, I prefer the threading features of WM 6.1

Will do.
Any ROM other than at&t is going to give you alot better performance all around. When I had my Fuze, I was using NRG's ROMs almost exclusively. Very fast and stable and he always includes all the good stuff without taking up all the memory either.

GTK! when you flashwith another ROM can you still go back to the factory ROM using a master reset? One would thing you are replacing the ROM in Flash and not the actual "ROM"
When you flash a rom you can't go back to stock unless you have the stock rom on a cd from your profider, read de faq's dude
Unless you know how to dump and recompile your stock rom you can't reflash it unless someone on here shares the pure rom which I think they have. Check out the ROM develpment section for Topaz.
I think you will flashing soon because Manila 2.5 kicks ass and the pure don't got it.

Excuse my ignorance here, but what is Manila?
Manila is Touchflo 3D. The HTC UI that sits on top of winmo
Question:
This also might sound like a stupid question, although I'm not positive...
AT&T Tilt = Kaier
AT&T Fuze = Raphael
AT&T Pure = ?????
I was going to start searching for new roms, when I ra into this little roadblock. Thanks guys!

You are correct
The Pure and Diamond 2 / Topaz are the same thing. Different casing and slightly different chipset, but otherwise the same phone.
Playing With Pure
Hey again everyone,
Just got my new PURE yesterday, and went about loading up all my goodies from off my Tilt (anyone wanna buy a used Tilt???)...
One app I like using is WKTask, it allows the title bar to show mini title-bars for open apps (but I'm sure many of you already knew that )... anyway, here's a question for all those wonderful registry hackers out there who may also have just picked up a Pure/Topaz/etc. with a similar issue:::
I'm noticing that Opera 9.5 stays open in memory no matter what I do. I can use the exit menu item in the browser, I can use WKTask's Close or even Terminate, I can even use FDC Task Manager program to find Opera in the Apps list & kill it there... no matter what I do, it keeps popping back up, whether or not I have Manila running off the Today picklist.
The question here is: what is making Opera keep popping back up? Though I like the browser, I don't want it running in the background - until I want it to. Seems to me that maybe something in Manila is keeping a notification queue item rolling that opens Opera - but I've browsed through the notification queue and can't find anything that specifically mentions the browser...
This issue notwithstanding, I must say that I'm so far happy with the Pure (ex the bloatware of course). I've never been daring enough to flash non-stock ROMs... but maybe if the bloatware drives me crazy enough, I might just dive into the kitchen...
Any thoughts on the Opera issue? Thanks!!!

That was my first guess too. Check and see if push internet is off. I don't remember how to get there since I'm using 6.5.1 and Leo Manila but it should be easy.
OK... tried this, and WOW! The wonders of what you discover about your new device when you ask! (after searching, of course)....
I skimmed over the "Push Internet" feature in Manila settings somewhere, but didn't give it much of a thought, since at the time I didn't know what it was - hey, my Tilt didn't have Push-Internet. But seeing how freaking SLOW everything, including SPB Mobile Shell (which I somehow prefer over Manila - I know, it's sacrilege!) was running, I took the advice here about Push Internet, searched on how to disable it, found this link to an article on PocketNow.com which links to a file created by one of XDA-Developers' own, and voila! Instant gratification... and an over 10MB Program memory availability jump.
Thanks everyone for pointing me in the right direction! Cheers!

ive searched, and searched and searched, but cant find an answer...
ive got a tilt using a custom rom, and i have an x-tra tilt currently runing the stock rom.
what i would like to know is if its possible to use the CV (Cingular Video) link on the custom rom or the media.net link to check account status and stuff
i can switch the sim card between the units and the CV and medianet work fine on the stock rom, but if i manually type in the url's into the flashed tilt, the links dont work.
i cant imagine im the only one that ever tried to do this, but im at a loss on how to make this work?
any ideas would be appreciated
50+ views and not one idea? com'on guys and gals....
That's because we have no idea what you're talking about.
Links? As in something you click on in Internet Explorer to get to another web page??
Or do you mean an application?

100+ reads and this is the first i get? well its a start...silly me, i thought ANYONE that has used the AT&T Tilt for more then 5 minutes would of seen the cingular video and media net links...
allow me to clarify...
htc/att winmo 6.1 rom found on the HTC site, version 3.57.502.2, released 08/21/08
Cingular Video:
from the start menu, click on programs, and then click on the cingular video icon. that opens up internet explorer and the link (URL) is http://cingularvideo.cingular.com/ from the HTC/ATT rom the link takes me so i can watch a variety of videos online
MediaNet Home:
from the start menu, click on programs, and then click on the media net home icon. this opens up internet explorer and the link (URL) listed is http://device.home/ from this page i can check weather, phone bill stats and usage of other phones on the family plan.
both of these work on the factory rom, but i havent found a single custom rom where i can type in these links into a browser and they work...

There is a good way to get continued help, whine about no one helping you and then be obnoxious to the first person that tries. I have had a Tilt for 2 years and had no idea what you were talking about. Mostly because ANYONE who has used the AT$T Tilt got rid of all the AT$T " crapware " after about 4 minutes.
The fact that you cannot open it using other roms and the fact that you cannot open it on your PC should tell you that they are proprietary links that are interdependent on other bloatware installed with your AT$T rom.
Unfortunately if you want your bloatware, you will probably have to use a crappy AT$T rom.
yeah sounds like device.home would be something that is installed on the actual phone, so reload the att rom and start digging.
Thank you come again.

Cingular video and Media.net are provided by AT&T are propriatary to AT&T and only work from an AT&T stock rom, and since they both suck; none of the cooks here are going to put it thier roms. The only way to get them is to use the stock rom.
Insted of Media.net use internet explorer and insted of CV use Youtube or Hulu. They work a lot better
Hulu works on the Tilt?
Hulu works by way of skyfire. youtube works via lots of ways now, but I prefer kinoma play - buy it, it's worth it.
As to your original post, I know what you mean. I liked cv video too. I read something about being thru a proxy or whatnot and you had to edit some settings. But the other posters are right, it is att and not really worth the hassle of cooking it or making a cab for it.
Also go get Opera as your browser (if you haven't already) - load a testing version and work with the display options to get just what you want.
These will make your tilt much more usable.
