Sorry if this is a stupid question!

I am quite new to ROM flashing, but have been successful and am now able to do it with no problems.
My question is simple:-
Could some someone please define the word TILT in the following sentance.
"Tilt owners, install additional cabs"
I though that all Keizer's were Tilt devices, or am I wrong? How do I know if I am a Tilt owner?
Sorry if it's a stupid question.

Yup its a stupid question alright. Naw just playing.
The Tilt is A "Kaiser" Per se but a Kaiser is not a Tilt. you know like a rectangle is a square but a square is not a rectangle.
Functionally they are the same however, the keyboard appears different, hence the need for the Keyboard Fix cab and there is no Video call Camera in the front. Oh and there is the unbearable need to have AT&T as a carrier.

And it would appear... slower roms too...

I really don't have a problem, once the bloatware is removed that is. At least its very easy to remove AT&T bloatware completely on a Tilt. No need to flash to get rid of it.

Its really easy to remove the bloatware on an AT&T Tilt. Takes about 5 minutes total. The AT&T internet settings and such will stay. It will remain fully functional. If you want stuff back like Cingular Video or Media mall you will have to reinstall those separately.
First of all you must realize when you are done the phone will be just like it came out of the box, minus the bloatware. You will have to reinstall any applications installed to the device, and redo all previously applied hacks. Backup anything you don't want lost that is in storage memory, and move it to your storage card. Anything on your storage card is safe. Once everything you don't want lost is safely backed up or moved you can proceed.
Click Start --> Settings --> System tab --> Clear Storage
Enter "1234" and click YES.
Device will reboot.
When it comes back up have your stylus ready. It will ask you to align the screen (Tap the crosshairs), set the time zone & clock, etc.
When done you will see a green screen that says something like "You have now setup your device, tap the screen to begin using Windows Mobile..."
As soon as you tap and the today screen opens you will see a text box popup saying "Software install will begin in 3 seconds" Quickly soft reset the phone before this install begins. Do this by inserting the Stylus in the reset hole in the bottom of the device and press before the install begins.
Device will reboot.
When it comes back up you will be free of AT&T Bloatware.
You may now redo all of your hacks and reinstall your software. You will notice a lot more available storage memory and RAM available.
Enjoy!

Hey Jay thanks for the advice on getting rid of att's softwares. I notice on your icon that you have TOM TOM running as your GPS program. I have TOMTOM also however my is cracked and the version is 6.010. When I first installed it, searching for satellite was fairly fast. Now, it takes forever. Any idea on what happened? Thanks

Sounds like your quick GPS files need updating. I have mine set to auto download when necessary. Go to Start--> Programs --> Quick GPS. The icon looks like a satellite dish. Click Download. When your download is complete click Menu--> Options. Make sure "Autodownload when data expires" is checked.

No, I don't have a list of everything the bloatware install ads, hides, or otherwise changes. I know Internet connection sharing is hidden and replaced with the AT&T dialer application. Then there's all the 30 second trial versions of the games that are gone as well.
After you remove the bloatware all the cabs for the bloatware are in the windows directory. If there's anything missing like Cingular Video, or anything else like that, that you can't live without just run the appropriate *.cab file and install it. I prefer this way as you can selectively install just what you want, and leave out the rest.

LOL, I've had mine since November and I haven't flashed yet. I haven't found a need to so far. I am heavily tweaked and modded though... I've been thinking about flashing, but I generally don't flash a device until my warranty expires, but that's just me. I think the only exception was with my classic model V3. I think I flashed that phone the day I got it to remove the Cingular crap. It was not necessary to flash the Tilt to remove the AT&T crap, so I haven't flashed ... yet.

Yeah, mine still worked. Just the crap is gone. Remember you will have to reinstall everything, and setup your device again, so make sure you have all that stuff ready. Its a good idea to keep all of your cabs in a folder on your storage card so you don't have to look for that stuff when you hard reset.

Problem Since SnapVue to WM6

the large clock on the desktop only displays 1 or 2 numbers of the time. Is the new start button causing that problem. Also the was an icon I think for settings, I dont have that any more. Anyone ?

Hi,
try a soft reset from WM side or go to Vista and reset Snapvue from there using the control center.
S.

Soft Reset
I don't see any way to reset on either side. I can reset SnapVue by using file explorer. Will I lose WM6 .. Guess I will find out in a few minutes.

Display Problems
I learned the hard way, Clear Storage is NOT a soft reset. Back to square 1. Thing is .. when the start button is at the top of the screen, the isn't room at the bottom of the screen for Settings and SMS.

Everything Is Back To Normal
I think that the start button was not what was causing the display problems on my machine. Maybe adding and extra email address did it ...thanks for the help !!

I spoke too soon
Can't get the today reg to import. Tried it over and over. Do I need to start from scratch ?? Now I am afraid to start with the VGA because I am afraid I will get half way through that process and at some point it will not allow me to do something .. somewhere .. The only major change I made to the computer since the first time I modified winmo6 is adding the sidebar .. had to jump through some hoops to do that...

Hi, I get the impression,
that you do it the hard way. But for the first steps, before you start with RealVGA there is a very easy way to liberate the shift.
Look in the main Shift Thread. There you find from the top Sticky number four: Enabling the Shift the really easy way.
Or did you do that? It can be found on the modaco site.
And be very careful with RealVGA and read exactly the thing about the startup folder as you have an Italian Shift.
S.

VGA ...
And be very careful with RealVGA and read exactly the thing about the startup folder as you have an Italian Shift.

I think that I have a USA model .. are you confusing me with someone else ? or do I have an Italian model and don't know that I do ??

HTC homescreen plug and HTC homescreen customizer.

Hi I just upgraded to an at&t tilt. I have been reading these forums to get some customization ideas. Now I just want everyone to know this is my first ppc, just had regular cell phones before this. I have a general idea of what to do but I could use a little help.
What I want to do is get the regular black htc homescreen plug and the home screen customizer. I need help getting ahold of them and installing. From what I have seen so far I just need to find the cabs to dowload directly to my phone, or get them in a zip file and sync them from my pc. If I sync from my pc were do I put them on my phone to access the cabs and install?
If anyone can help me out it would be awsome. I need to find the files and how to install them, unless they are cabs i can download directly to the tilt. Also if anyone has any other cool apps they think would help I would like to hear about them; I will probably get pie scroll fix and some other helpful stuff too.
Thanks for all your help.

Here are the versions I'm using, with no problems. Alternatively you can go here: http://www.pocketemu.com/news.html
You can put the cabs anywhere on the phone (in any folder - my documents for example), or on a sd card then just run from there.
edit:
the home customizer didn't upload but you can get it from the link i posted

Thanks for the speedy reply!
Thanks I will install them and hopefully it will come out the way I want it. Can u put a screenshot of your homescreen so i can see what it looks like? Oh and do u have any recommendations for other tings to make my stock tilt better?

kaiser tweak
Does anyone know if the kaiser tweak already has the home screen and customizer with it, or will I have to install that seperate?

Flash a new rom
To tell u the truth thats what i wanted to do was just flash it with the kaiser rom but I am kind of afraid to do that because i dont know much about how it will work, what it will change, if it will still work tight with at&t and i dont want to mess up my phone and void the warranty. If i just add plugins and apps I dont have to worry about it as much. Plus I have no idea how to do it.

Here you go boss

I just got my tilt a week ago, and have probably flashed it at least a dozen times by now playing with settings and trying out different ROMs.
The only problem I've had with AT&T was when i put an incompatible radio on, my sound stopped working. I could still make calls, I just couldn't hear anything.
A reflash fixed that. Other than that I haven't had any probelms
Just read through the wikis and other peoples posts and everything will(should) turn out fine

well I will have to read through the wikis. what are wikis anyway? lol!

Massive Newbie!

Well basically ive just got my new HTC diamond today and was looking at installing a few apps, programs and themes ect.
But after spending 2 hours browsing the forum im just getting more and more confused by the minute about what you actually have to do
Can anyone link me or tell me how i go about getting programs themes and app's on to my diamond?? im mainly wanting to change the home screen (customize it)
Help Much Appreciated.
Jack

Right after further searching i found i need "TouchFlo 3D" i downloaded this and put it in the program files folder then go to install it on my phone and nothing happens, asif i dont even click it .. please can someone help!!

Jack,
Ur diamond out of the box already has TF3D, go to start>settings>today and choose on the second tab ('items') TF3D, click the X in the upper right corner and then your homescreen will change to the one with the nice flip clock on it.
But why don't u start with the manual that came with your diamond?
Get to know the device a little more, use it for awhile and then decide what you want to change to let it better suit your needs.
For tons of information and good applications you're absolutely in the right place here, though it can be a bit overwhelming at first, but you'll figure it out i'm sure (cuz i did to and i'm not a whizkid whatsoever..lol...)
Have fun with your diamond, it's a great device with lotsa possibilities

What am i doing wrong?!

You're doing nothing wrong, but you skipped a step that's crucial when flashing a Diamond:

If you perform mtty before you flash a new rom it will most probably solve all the weird errors such as you describe.

Hi, i tryed that but i dont have windows 7 just XP so its not compatable

sure it is compatible, it's even easier to use with XP cuz you don't have to change the drivers.
Be sure to read the first post of the thread carefully, lol, look at the big sentence in red:
NOTE: WORKS WITHOUT DRIVER INSTALL ON XP

Your right its working perfect now, but the tom only came with one keyboard option, and its not "qwerty" can i get an add on or something so i can get the other option's on my device (qwerty, compact,phone keypad)
Thanks for all your help Nirak

Just tryed two other ROM's and there both the same it shows in the screen shots that you can change between the different ones but i keep getting the same keyboard layout no matter what ROM i use, like it wont let me change it to qwerty or phone keypad
Could someone please help me, as its getting quite frustrating now.

DUAL OS chinese t5353

hi, does anyone know how to hard reset a t5353 Dual OS so that both Android and WM go back to factory settings?
i was able to do a reset on wm by going thru the settings and all but i'm having problems with android part of it.
HERE IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ANDROID OS!!!
i tried to calibrate the ANDROID screen and instead my finger, i used my stylus. It picked up my stylus during calibration but after that my screen stopped responding to any touch what so ever. i can press volume, windows, back buttons (or soft keys?) etc and they work just fine showing that the OS itself is working but it's not picking up anything on the screen. Actually, i did notice that when it is about to "sleep" and the lights get "dim", me touching on the screen wakes it up... any help would be appreciated....
i have tried the two of the following available HARD REST combination - neither one worked.
i also know that the touch screen itself is working because when i boot it in WM, the screen and everything else works just fine.
i've made a post in another thread but it's under WM area and my problem is with Android (for mods, just in case they think it's double posting--i'm sorry).

more info.
here is some more stuff that i've tried with the advice from adstrylight who was kind enough to spend some time on my problem

Android vs WM..
Which version of android do you have with your phone btw? Is it running from internal storage, or the sdcard(the easy way to tell this is if your SDcard contains a file called zimage or not)? I only ask as my phone originally came with android running from th SD, and was laggy/buggy beyond belief, and the latest version of A2.1 (the "fourth edition") is a world away in terms of stability etc.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
not sure but when it boots, it shows the android logo (monkey or bugg or whatever it is), then it shows SOHO 2, and then shows a screen with "android" written on it...
no Zimage on SDcard. My device did not come with an SD card either and there is only one slot ( that i can see ) and it has my own SD card from before (which does not contain zimage). i even did a search on my entire phone and did not find zimage.

Don't know where this came from, but did you try pressing the zoom bar bellow where it says 'ok'? I only did this once, a long time ago, but this thought just occured to me over dinner....
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
yes, that is what i though initially. I was tapping all over the screen, trying to press "zoom out", trying to slide my finger towards "zoom out". I am not sure if it responded to me pressing over "OK" on the screen or "ZOOM OUT" or "CALL BUTTON" but it rebooted and did a hard reset. I was very happy at first only to find out that it only performed a hard reset on WM [very disappointing].

thanks in advance for anyone who can help.

anyone? i'd really appreciate any ideas.

It could mean that you have a very different setup, or perhaps that it's an Android OS clone. Are you able to install apps through Android Market place ?

i "was" able to download apps from market place but since the screen does not respond to me "touching an icon", i cant really do much (nothing at all).
NOTE: the screen does however respond when the back light turns dim, me touching the screen wakes it up.

Mann i don't understand how no one knows the answer. All the hackers and crackers making big softwares available to everyone, and no one knows why android OS is not responding to touch????

Pardon?! You own a freaking clone which probably nobody else outside china owns and you are requesting any in deep assistance when nobody has the slightest knowledge about these fancy copy&paste devices?
Form you descriptions though, just to get that right... you had to calibrate your screen where you had to touch the 5 white boxes? If your Android installation is somehow a copy of the XDANDROID system which contains the touchscreen calibration app, then look for a file called "ts-calibration" on your device. Delete it and reboot into Android. (However that is done your device.)

1. thank you very much for your response. i will try to find the ts-calibration file and give it a try. i can upload the "rom" online, it says SOHO 2 when it's loading (if that helps?)
2. i think this device reboots like my samsung galaxy s, press and hold POWER and it asks you if you want to go in flight mode, power off etc.

i looked for this file, i actually did a search through my computer to see if i could find the "ts-calibration" but did not find it.
in WM section (using Resco Reg), i found a few .DLL files that had the word "touch" in them. One was "TouchRecognizer" and one was "touch.dll". i'm not sure which one exactly, but there were a few #s that changed after i did a caliberation ( on WM ). Is there a file in Android that's like that, maybe i could just copy those #s from WM into the .dll or something for Android?
thanks again for taking time to help.

No, you can't copy windows DLL to Android. I assume the only chance you have is searching the net, or some dedicated clone forums for the answer on how to reset your android installation.

I want to say, no working android.
Read and search in this topic, and you find custom roms.
Even with updated to 2.1 system.bin and data.bin android files.

thank you for your help. I have already been talking to some people in the link you just posted.
I've solved my issue by simply re-flashing it.
Thanks everyone who responded.
