So Confused Choosing which rom!! - Touch 3G ROM Development

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!
Dave

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!!

Here is a TMO Wing Original ROM with TouchFlo added

Here's the TMO Wing original ROM with TouchFlo added. After the screen alignment, the TMO customization app will run but it doesn't install anything. Give your phone some time to initially startup after the install before trying the TouchFlo. Use at your own risk. Thanks to the PDAVIET team for the install process, anichillus for the kitchen And I think??? Tom Love ??? for the TouchFlo process itself. If I've used something of someone else's. I'm sorry, let me know and I'll remove it.

I will try this rom now. But I still think that it is only included the TouchFlo, not the others app?
Is it possible if you cook a new rom based on the Wing OS like the version HERALD_WM6.0_4.17.07.12.PV? I have tried the Touch IT already but it could not compare with the .12.PV in general.
The biggest problem now is keyboard of Wing, it is different than 4350's keyboard. So if we can get the new rom with Wing OS, it is the best!
Thanks in advance!
Downloading now :] from the wifi across the street, this might take a while...
Please post asap guys how this works.
There are several questions I have:
Does this include ANY extra software?
if it doesnt include ANY, then is there a TF manager at least like touchflo 1.1?
Does this have the 6mb page pool applied to it?
It's the base tmob ruu, with touchflo. not bad but still way up on the mem usage since its the official ruu
i got it to install okay but i can't get touchflo started. there are no tf settings. it replaces the left soft key. some of the issues i read about before are apparent like clicking the "x" opens the right soft key.
reinstalling something else. GREAT JOB though and thanks for making this. i'll check it out again next release.
TF Settings are in the Programs Folder. It has the original page pool but, the quick page pool changer will still work. One thing I did notice though, the TF settings aren't checked but it does work for me. If it's not working, open the TF Settings and check 'Enable cube' and 'Enable Scroll'. Also set 'View mode' to 'TF default v4.1'. I'd hate to slim down the ROM and have it missing something that a lot of people use. If you want to customize the cube, open \Windows\BioTouch Settings. I will definitely be fixing a few things so post suggestions here. Don't expect any changes until next week though.
i couldn't find the settings dialouge in any folder. i went into the programs folder where all the programs are usually located (in the start menu) and then into all the subfolders, and couldn't find the settings. They were also not in the program files folder that i reached through file explorer.
Strange. it's all there for me. When I get home I'll flash back to the original RUU. Then reflash my version. Thanks for your input.
Almost the T-Mo ROM with Touch settings
Well it's almost what it says it is. Everything is there except for the basic T-Mo apps like Hotspot log-in, T-Zones and My5. Which isn't a bad thing becuase I don't use any of them, however it is the missing IM program, but again no big deal because that's available in th the forums here. All in all, so far I'm impressed.
is the keyboard layout correct??..other then that there will be no other reason to switch because some how i kept all my t-mobile files when i flashed to the touch it rom
Just a question. When i reflash, i normally cut out the customizing part. Is the touch-flo function a component of the "Customizing" function after a hard reset?

Touch-IT For Wing Users Only Development Path Thread

In this thread, ONLY Wing users may post, and only WING users running Touch-IT 1.1 may comment. This is a thread that will be filled with information for the development of a Touch-IT rom JUST for the wing.
Bugs:
Keys are not mapped correctly, below is how they are mapped:
TylerC161 said:
*When using alt* (Formula: (Letter)(default alt function) = (Touchflo rom response)

W ) = !

Hopefully you dont have a hard time understanding the formula, if you do then I'll just get a high res pic up of the keyboard.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Weather tab on the Today screen plugin will not display the weather over Tmobile GPRS (EDGE) unless you use wifi for access.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
When using the missed call log, contacts that called the day before or further back; their names are cut off by the huge date, for example one might read "Aman... Sunday, Sep-23-2007" when the contacts name should read Amanda Smith
------------------------------------------------------------------------
In calendar mode, when entering a event, (say for today) it says:
Starts: Monday, Sep-24-2007
If you click the drop down box to select a time to start, often times the time is cut off in the display window, so worst case it'll just say "11:" or so, and its just a little inconvenient.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I dont know about others, but the sliding sidebar seems REALLY small to me, 70% of the time or so if Im using the stylus in the right hand, I dont actually contact the scroll bar.
lol, well, Im dumping the wing os right now, so it will be a new build for the wing.
So I guess the keyboard mapping will be correct?
And the calendar is not really a bug is it? Is easily set up in regional settings
The slidebar has been altered to be smaller, but that is corrected in registry.
But Im not using that in my roms anymore

I appreciate your work in trying to get us wing users on touchflo, the pdaviet has been very frustrating especially the keyboard issue. Im willing to test for you and if you need any help with anything I'll be glad to help in anyway I can.
Ill have a beta ready within an hour or two

Sounds great, thanks again for your work. I tried to dump a rom and cook my own but its like teaching a blind person to use windows
its up, check it out
Another small issue that I have noticed using touch it 1.1 is in Notes program, it displays like this B...Thursday, Sep-13-2007 etc. instead of the first line (which I normally make the title).
ah yes i hate that. when going through my text messages i cant tell who theyre from with this rom. it will say Ja... Septembe 17, 2007. ect.
And the Regional Settings (or whatever it is for date length) even when changed will not actually change how these such things are displayed.
For me the date issue is ok when i first change the short date format to something else than it is and then change it back and save.
Short Date
All you have to do to fix the date display issue is go to regional settings and change the short date to mm/dd/yy

are you saying that the weather works with the T-mobile Web (the 5.99 plan)?? I the link I read another one was having issues with the proxy again. can you confirm this?
I installed touch flow and it worked fine.
I flashed the touchflow + oem WING from PDA viet and it runs fine.
After i installed that, i just installed all the other HTC HOME battery status etc etc progs and my phone runs perfect. zero flaws. the keyboard is perfect and yeah
lol, this is a thread for touch-it roms, not the pdaviet roms
Tom Codon (from PDAVIET) has contributed with tf-settings, and many other has made available many amazing appz for us chefs to use. So in many ways the roms available on the whole forum is made available by the many ppl here contributing their skills for all to use.
But its nice that ppl seperate who makes what rom.
I would not be ashamed at all to be mistaken for coming from PDAVIET, because they do amazing work.
Still, im only me, trying to build some roms.
and its fun too, as long as ppl can be polite and be helpfull (as so many has been, by testing and giving positive feedback) I will continue to develop roms, that I hope can be better, faster and more stable.
cheers
I'm sure that everyone truly appreciates your work. You did an amazing job with the Wing Rom, especially since you had to build it blindly without the ability to test it yourself. So on the behalf of everyone using your Rom, thank you.

NOTE:
I dont have the p4350 anymore, so I could not test the roms with touchflo and no cube.
But they should work
Instructions how to upgrade is in the Touch-IT folder.
READ IT.
If you dont, you will spend even more time infront of your computer flashing the official ruu before trying again, why waste time, use 1 min to read and understand.
Remember:
If you dont like what I have added, or what I have removed or w/e please dont spam this thread with lame comments.
Disclaimer:
I take NO responsebility if you brick your device, if you do search the forums before you come flaming me/us here at XDA.
IF you brick your phone (Brick=the phone can be used as a building brick, or maybe a paperweight? Because you cant start it up.) Its no others fault but your own.
Mainly the reason for bricking a phone is:
1. Not reading the instructions good enough
2. Not following the instructions.
3. Not having a RUU that can unbrick the phone (the official installer with the official rom for your specific phone, with your phones default language. In.ex if yu have a german phone by default, you need a german RUU, if not you will get invalid vendor error)
4. Not reading the instructions good enough..again
5. Not following the instructions...again
If you dont understand after reading CAREFULLY, then dont bother flash your device with this or any other rom.

Wow, dude. Awesome. And just in time for me buying my P4350 monday (or tuesday possibly). Not having tried flashing before (but already having read the instructions several times, even though I haven't actually got a phone to do anything on), I don't know the quality of your roms - yet I presume from what I have read that they are quite good indeed.
So thanks for your work on the roms, even though the P4350 isn't exactly new.
Just out of curiosity, is it WM5 or WM6 it's built upon? I can't seem to locate that fact anywhere in your post, but I might have overlooked it for some mysterious reason.
EDIT: It seems I was a bit too quick to post the latter about me not finding the information. I googled a bit and it seems that Kaiser OS of that build mentioned above is indeed WM6. So I guess I answered my question myself
EDIT 2: First (or well, second), I guess?
glad to hear that you're still doing work for us. I can't wait to put this on my phone.
thanks mucho.

I am however curious, itje. What if bugs pop up, will you be fixing those? Depending on their size and reach of the bug, of course.

Well, it might work. If you find a language pack that works on wm6 then it might. Why don't you try it out? Just make a backup, flash, see if it works, flash back to your current rom and restore your backup. I'm sure it can't be that hard.
UAHUUUUU
I love the "READ ME-How To Upgrade" file
I love the new (light coloured) splashcreen and theme
I love everything man!
It is dumb saying so since it is the last version but this is the best release!
Installation went smooth! I really hope that this time everybody reads carefully the readme file since the package has the select OS feature.
Itje, come back to the herald whenever you want. I read somewhere that kaiser was way worse than Herald... I would think it twice
Great rom itje... I've founda little bug that becomes annoying when using CommManager: when I try to slect Settings -> Wireless lan nothing happens :?

My tytn2 is the best device/phone I ever held in my hands.
So does this rom have the keyboard and stuff working correctly? I think it was a problem in the past, if I remember right. Just curious because I just had to hard reset my phone because it's being stupid, so if this rom is (close to) bug free, I will probably flash to this instead.

If you have a P4350, and its default language is english. There is no issue
What messed up with soft keyboard was the softkeyboard from touch dual, and I didnt include it in this release.
If you want it, get the cab. The same applies to other programs that ppl wants that is not in this release.

To be honest I don't really know what touch dual is, so I'm sure I could do without it. I've been running the regular t-mobile rom with just the page pool change and a few programs (htc home, etc), and suddenly started getting this problem where my send button didn't work right and my phone would make some weird noises. I just did a hard reset and it seems to have fixed that, so while I'm at it I might as well add a nice new rom.
I know you've been working on roms for quite a while here, and I was holding off because of not wanting to re-do everything, but now since I had to start fresh, I might as well add something like this.
Thanks for all of the hard work you put into this stuff. I'm definitely going to give it a try.

1, SMS/MMS
this is a massive pain in the ass to me, before on the SPV, it was split and made life easier. but now its merged and is driving me insane for some unknown reason (possibly OCD lol)
2. SMS main screen
On the left soft key it now says "Delete". again on the SPV it was new, made life easier and faster rather than trawling menu for new messages
3. The main today screen. The quality HTC black screen with big clock isnt an option on Orange so it would appear. if so can anyone tell me how? its looks great on the HTC Touch yet on here i have either the crappy Orange side bar or standard Windows bars
4. Touch FLO. wat programs does this work on, cus mine seems obsolete on everything
sorry to be a mega noob, but wud appreciate some input on making this PDA truely awesome

Cheers boys and girls
There is no way that you searched and didn't find the answers.
need to find better searching tricks, 1 advice would be to use google or just using a few key words in the forum's search tool
well i did search but "new sms" "delete" "mms" comes up with 32 pages. most of them reading thru, talk about new CABs, and for me thats a last resort, i no u think im being lazy, but after reading 100+ threads with no luck id thought id ask
I got the orange tytn ii before Christmas, and hated the Orangeness of the phone. Found the HTC plugin here:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-htc-home-plugin-v1-0.html
Install on phone, soft reset and then go to "settings", "today" and move to the items tab. Tick the HTC home (not the HTChomeplug) option.
For the black "theme" which is just the black background with a small htc logo in the bottom right and the black bars top and bottom:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/s.php?querywords=htc+black+theme
Again install on phone, soft reset go back to "today" and on the first tab select HTC_new_default
You will still have an orange battery charge icon on the top bar though. I've been happy to live with that!
much appreciated mate. ill have a crack at that when I finish work later.
managed to sort touch flo out aswell
ill carry on searching thru the sms threads, but in the mean time, if any one can point me in the right direction id be very greatful
cheers again

You can find different versions of Arcsoft with the SMS/MMS split. However, it can cause problems when you install it overtop of the merged version. Your best bet is to read up on ROM Upgrading in the Kaiser Wiki, actually the whole Wiki, and then look for a cooked ROM that has the split version of Arcsoft loaded by default.

He is correct. Messing with the Messaging system can bring on Gremlins. Best leave it be or get a ROM that has that from scratch. I've come to be ok with the combined SMS/MMS. At first I didn't like it but I'm fine with it. What I really disliked what the threaded SMS on 6.1.
Think you're stuck with the combined mms/sms. You could always make another folder and manually copy your received mms's over to that. Can't say it bothers me too much. Cure your OCD by convincing yourself that an mms is just an sms with an attachment!
Regarding the previous post. Once you have downloaded the cabs copy them into a folder on your phone (eg. my downloads) and install them, then soft reset.
Once you have it up and running you can go back to "today" (settings) and choose from the items tab what other notifications you want to display below the "big clock"!!
Top tip if you're with Orange. I managed to blag the Orange Business data tariff of 250mb per month for £8 per month including VAT. This rolls over as well!! Phone up customer services and ask (nicely) if they'll bolt it on for you. If not ask for the data tariff department and sweet-talk them.
nice one guys, many thanks, ill let u no how it goes in a bit
hey, spot on so far mate, any other tips? or things that are good to install, got msn so happy with that too
by the way ive got a great blag for the business net user, just wondering wat questions they asked?
no luck blagging , just out of curiosity, is anyone else having problems with IE lagging loads whilst u scroll down even tho the page has loaded?

[ROM] liberated snapvue + GPS WWE 1.22.405

Ok, as promished, here is the new rom. I just post the link in a text file, cause I want to see the counter running
It's a standard snapvue, liberated, with the following ehancement:
Screen rotation in settings
GPS in snapvue side
Full iexplorer, notes, images, messenger,windows live.
HTC X-button 1.5
HTCGPStool
DotFred's TaskManager
USBtools for connecting to vista
A few htc blocages removed
I've tested the sound. the gps fix, and vista connectivity. Be sure to use high performace power mode for best results. It's still beta until everyone confirm it works ok. DOn't flash it if you are afraid of dark.
My radio is 1.58.21.23, so it should work on all european shift. North americans have already the gps included anyway.
To install, run customRUU AS ADMINISTRATOR on a HardSPL shift
FAQ:
- Flash is not working, it stops at 0%
You dummy boy forgot to hardSPL your shift. Look in the forum for HardSPL by cmonex
-Flash is working, goes until the end, but I get an old rom
Try launching customruu from a new folder with a new name. It's a bug under vista
- GPS does not get a fix
Sorry. Get outside, in the middle of a field, and wait. You will get a fix.
- I want GPS under vista too
It's a software problem. I'm using franson gpsgate on both side, using an activesync solution. There are other way.
- What took you so long to release this
Well, I'm like you, I waited for a rom, and since nothing came, I've started doing it myself. It took me one week.
- It mean you are against shift project
No, Thanks to their help, I can flash roms on my device. I'm actually in regular contact with cmonex. We both think more rom is best for everybody. Shift project will release quality rom on it's agenda.
- What will you do next
I'll go for screen problems I want games to work on this. After,I'll try and see the SD card, the phone, the BT and the wifi
-Wait, SD card is higher priority to me
Well, I just start where I think it can be easier to sort thinks out.
- Why don't you release a cab for the GPS like you did
Because one of the driver responsbile for linking with the sound is loaded at boot time. Try changing this on you own, and you'll have to hard reset. Only way to change it is a custom rom
- I have function X that doesn't work
Does it work after a hard reset? If not, please post how to redo it on my device
- My girlfriend left me since I flashed this rom
You forgot to HardSPL her. It's your fault
- I want program X added to the rom
Maybe if I see it as a great improvment, othewise, you should learn to cook rom yourself

Some stuff still has to be liberated the old way. Feel free to advise your registry edits for the next version
Thanks, but it worked a few mins later. I'm just too impatient.
Finally a reason to install HardSPL on the Shift, I was too lazy to liberate it again so held off until now.
What about non-English keyboard layouts? Are they supported in this new ROM?
If so, I'll download tomorrow in the office, at home it's only GSM...
Thank you all for making a little great machine even better!
I can try and make non english layout, but I need different languages to do this. I'm going to try with german, but I'll need other languages files too.
Thanks !!!!!, perfect, brilliant, fantastic!, GPS and full sound .... now only the issue of lack Snapvue to 96dpi or 128dpi, it appears that the CommManager cut, broken, je, je, je, je ... very good job, just missed the soft reset button, but it will be for the next one. Thanks !!!!.
soft reset is in task manager menu. But you can make a shortcut to it. I'll add it in next version.
forgot to add cab support. You can edit registry for this. This will be added in next version

That caught me out for a minute too. For those who are stuck, use the registry editor in the Task Manager, and navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Cabfile\Shell\Open\command and change the default value to wceload.exe "%1" /nodelete - there is a space after the .exe and before the /nodelete here.
Thaihugo - it's looking good so far, just tweaking it up now. GPS works perfectly.
TERRIFIC!!!!
Thanks
Gracias, gracias
Dear ThaiHugo, thank you for your development time given to the shift community.
Its nice to see some movement on the forums.
I have a north american shift, as stated above it includes the gps, but should i try and use this rom?.
Last but not least, aside from being liberated and IE,WMP,Notes ect installed in it, is there any difference from the usa rom version?.
---Any input would be gladly appreciated. thanks in advance.....

96dpi and 128dp are possible. I am using Realvga...works terrific.
you can grab it off my server
RealVGA_11.CAB
ResPack128dpi.ARM.CAB
96dpi is a little too small, trust me...youre going blind.
@Thaihugo... Gute Arbeit..weiter so (Deutsche Gruendlichkeit)
If you need a server to host your roms, let me know. My server is fast and permanent
great job, keep going guys, this is the only way to go further in shift converting it from an expensive paperwight to a real good phone

As I'm very very very very (etc.) interested in Italian keyboard layout, could you please tell me which file do you need in order to build an "italian-like"-cooked-ROM?
Thanks
