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.
Download:
Sendspace
Megaupload

DO NOT SPLIT UP AND POST THIS PACKAGE IN SEPERATE FILES.
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.

Dont reply to this, and dont post other stuff then about this rom.
thx
Hm, maybe this should be stickied. Easier to find it, as it seems to be the final version ever to be released.
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.
hello itje,if i found a language pack french,with these release,work??

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.

What happen?
From my experience Dutty 2.1 Extreme is the best! You can fix all the bugs searching latest Dutty ROM thread.
No, I´m using Dutties Xtreme ROM V2.1 and there´s no bug - at least that cannot be solved. Give it a try, it´s much better than the old manila.

I don't know what happends the last three, four weeks, but not the ROMS are so bad or have so many bugs, but some people here do so!
I use Davideuck_V-2_HP and therefore Dutty's HD V2.1 XTREM. There are some few things which are not perfect, but all standard(!) functions are working, the roms are stable and I will say mostly bug-free. Much better then the stock ROMs.
So, what happends?

I'm still looking for a "bug-free" ROM with the new manila.
Davideuck_V-2 is a good ROM, but not perfect. here are some very annoying bugs :
1. Youtube app lags
2. Inside 'People Tab', in case you have a person with 2 numbers (mobile + work), try tapping the 'Work' button and you'll find out that it will call to the
mobile instead.
3. You can send files via Bluetooth, but you can't receive.
4. Can't view attachments in SMS. if someone send you a picture in SMS/MMS you can see the attachment icon but you can't view it.
If you know a ROM with the new manila without these bugs i will flash it right now.
maybe sound just silly but have you enable beam GoldCoin?i 'm running on david's v2 ans i can send and receive bt files.

There are 2 things you are talking about. You need be very clear on what you want.
Lately there are 2 knids of ROMs that are being cooked.
One With Topaz
One With Rohdium.
If you just need a ROM with the new Manila... go for the Topaz ROM.
Based on my experience... the David's V2 ROM with Topaz is almost bug free... except for the YouTube lag. Only in David's Tpoaz ROM I have seen the FaceBook integration working perfectly. Not in Dutty's...
Dutty's 2.1 is also pertty good except the FB integratio does not work.
The Bugs you have pointed out with the people tab calling only one number.. is an issue with Rohdium ROM not the Topaz one.
According to me.. The Rohdium ROM is the one with most of the BUGs... not the Topaz (David's is 99% perfect).
still all beta stuff anyway so hey, that's what we have

Thanks for sharing this information with me. 'Davideuck's Rohdium' is the first
ROM i have ever flashed since i got my HD, and in fact this is the only cooked ROM i've used so far.
About FB integration - i don't really need this. Here are few "must" features
for me on a ROM :
No mp4/youtube playback problems - watching videos on my blackstone is one of the reasons i bought it.
ICR - the ability to record calls with no problems. worked great on Rohdium.
New manila V3 - i just love the TF3d.
GPS - using it alot and can't afford problems with this feature.
New Start Menu - just like in Rohdium.
Also i need basic phone features to work well. SMS, MMS, No white images
when a caller doesn't have an image (some says Topaz has this problem) and
so on..
New Manila

If Rohdium is a must for you... (The New Start menu is only possible with Rohdium. You have to wait until some one figures out how to have these things working. I am sure Davide will fix the YouTube lag.)
Dutty's latest ROM (V2.1) is a Topaz built, No new start menu. If not everything elase works perfect.
how do you use FB intergration?please tell me

facebook can be added to rhodium, im still looking into it and im probably bout 80% through sorting it out, to add it use m9editor find settings.xml file from the _manilla files in both topaz and rhodium and compare the differences' youll notice a section completely missing from rhodium to do with people updates, add missing lines to rhodium settings.xml and upload the changed file,(there is also a few other diffrences im looking into)
This doesnt get it 100% working but i now have the facebook options and still testing other files that may be different or missing, i just run out of time last night
The manilla settings file is 26948339_manila, if anyones intrested ill upload my changes for them
there is also some files missing/different that need to be sorted through
if you know so much about it please tell me how you do this integration?
Its not that i know so much about it, i just spent time examining the files available to me, and worked it out anyone is capable of doing it, all the information is there,
Ive had this phone for a bit more then a month and started using the kitchens about a week ago, so as i said its not really about me knowing so much, just a matter of taking the time to work it out,
depending on what source your getting the files from you will have different experience, Heres wat i know.
26948339_manila (i think in m9editor this shows as manila.xml not settings.xml)
100% rhodium oem package (what i was working with) is missing quite a few lines of code which i metioned in my above post, you need to add those into the file and also make sure they havent been disabled.
but i had a look in some of the released roms n it seems atleast on davide's v2 rom the the info is in the file, it has just been disabled look for the <!-- at the beggining of the line remove it and also the closing --> then the line is no longer disabled
Files
Some files are missing from the oem package and also from some of the chefs roms but you can get them from the topaz oems floating around.
All this is from memory i finish work in 45 minutes then back to work on the phone so if i get time ill up the files for you and all you have to do is copy them into your windows folder
Hi everybody, I recently got a Diamond2 and found that the enormous amount of expertise and help available at xda-developers have really helped me enjoy this phone. The phone is not locally supported by any carriers or retailers in Canada so the availability of these forums have been a real help. I've run through most of the issues I've had with the phone (really like the Pro2 Interface better but was way to bulky) but have a few remaining that I haven't been able to find satisfactory answers for, hope you guys will be able to help.
I've downloaded and played around with what seem to be most of the prerequisite softwares: Advanced Config Tool, Klaxon, Changescreen etc. and have also made a couple of registry modifications to enable TF3D rotation and things like that. Here is where I'm getting into a bit of trouble. Although changescreen is a great app I just don't like to install a lot of things on my device and decided to try the regedit. After a soft reset it seemed to work great but was quite slow in switching over to landscape and back. At first I though this was a problem with the g-sensor so I opened up Opera to try it out and found that it was much faster. Obviously it's a lot less graphically intense but I was playing around with a Touch Pro2 before I bought the Diamond2 and it is also significantly faster, with the same processor and everything. I've tried to reduce the sampling time for the g-sensor down from 200ms to 100ms in ACT but that didn't really seem to help. Also I get some really weird lines across the tops of TF3D pages in landscape; in the All Contacts page for example the bar that contains "Search Contacts" will have at least three sets of distorted lines across it at regular intervals across the page. The wallpaper also seems to malfunction as instead of staying as it was, it will stretch across the width of the screen and as a result become extremely distorted. The dialer doesn't go into landscape but that seems to be a common issue. I've downloaded the Rhodium Phone Dialer although I haven't had a chance to install it yet, maybe that will fix the dialer issue.
I do have some app installed that changes the background of all tabs to be the same and this seems to have messed with the transparency of the tab bar and, occasionally the phone will fail to respond to screen swipes that would usually cycle through the tabs without using the tab bar. Maybe this app is also causing the other problems.
The help on these forums has already been a great asset and I was just hoping that I would be able to get some simple fixes for the issues with the landscape thing without having to install more software. Thanks in advance for any help, its all appreciated. Cheers.
PS, rom is 1.39.421.0 (47382) WWE
what you can do to improve things:
1. ditch stock rom and use tess rom
2. install flipit for rotation software - its better than the rest IMO
Thanks for the quick reply
Thanks for the quick reply, sorry I wasn't able to reply right away, got a bit busy at uni.
I was a bit apprehensive about installing a new rom but the one you recommended is amazing. The speed increase alone is unbelievable, doesn't even feel like the same device.
Everything is working great and the rotation is really fast now on everything except TF3D. It almost looks like it attempts to rotate and then fails. The title bars rotate around and then rotate back. I've added the regedit, manually removed and added it back into flip_it, but nothing seems to be working. Aside from that everything else seems perfect. Hope you'll be able to help, and once again, thanks.
oh yeah.. forgot to mention about manila in landscape
go to search and look for At0mAng & Danny_and_2 TF3D2 Tweak cab for topaz
install, and in the list of programs, there is option called Manila Rotate ON.
and thats it, you are all set...
hope this helps

Can I ask where to read and get this rom?
I am also new to Topaz.
Running on stock ROM
been reading around. reading on the various rom threads to decide which to use.
I am looking for something stable, fast (aren't we all?) and 6.1. Still got Manila and hopefully with Titanium built in. Also if possible with ringtones removed.
What would you recommend?
Thanks

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529260
Almost there
Thanks for the tip about the tweak program, installed it and followed your directions, manila is now rotating. However, its still incredibly slow; in the range of 3-5 seconds for transition to landscape and then around 1-2 seconds back to portrait. Also, those distortive lines I described earlier are back.
I was hoping for the kind of speed seen here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPVgN5QuzO4 but I do realize that its a different rom. I've disabled and enabled TF3D and also done a soft reset, but no speed increase. I was thinking it may be a hardware issue but everything else works fine. One thing I have noticed though is that since installing this rom some programs get stuck half rotated and the other half of the screen will display the TF3D home page. Once again, thanks for all the help so far.
P.S. If I disable TF3D the blank today screen will rotate at the same speed as in that video if not faster. Also before when the menus rotated but not TF3D they were rotating at the same fast speed.
yes, I know what you mean.. at this stage, manila rotates pretty slow for me too...
I guess at the moment, we have to live with it... the slow rotation only happens on tf3d2 rite? the rest is ok...
as with hardware issue, I am sure it is not, cause topaz is still relatively new...
btw, Manila 2.1 is around, and manila 2.5 is coming too... so, maybe they would give better performance .
btw, the youtube link is a rom made by Tom Condon, and as you probably know, he is very active in building rom for topaz too... why dont you give him a message, or try his rom...
Tha
sorry double post again..
Sounds good
Glad to know that it wasn't just a one off issue. I'll give his rom a shot, was kind of wary b/c of the comments that said WM 6.5 was slow. Would you be able to direct me to somewhere that I'd be able to download TF3D 2.1 alone without a rom upgrade or anything or maybe even cooked into the TESS rom. Thanks for the incredible quick reply and for all the help so far.

I am removing my roms due to conflicts with certain members at xda, this looks like it cant be solved in normal ways. And because I do not want anymore of the bickering and fighting, I am pulling my work from XDA and all support is moved to you know where. I cant even mention that name anymore here.
Sorry to see this happen here, where I have learned so much, and met so many wonderful ppl.
rom is now online
happy flashing
Sounds great. Are you going to release a german version of it? And can you tell me if the video playback on HQ YouTube videos is laggy or something? I guess you are using the X2 video driver?
new UI, wonderful
will give it a try
thx for that
Thanks, i will install it and give some feedback
Flasing as we speak, will report back!
Thanks for the rom!
Thank you

[doublepost]
Just an early impression (played for a few hours); but so far WM6.5 and Manilla 2.5 seem to be very smooth. (alot faster then the NRG rom i tried before this one)
I also like the decision to use Opera 9* instead of 10Beta, since 9 is alot less annoying at times. (@ 10B i cannot seem to see whether i pressed a link or not)
However, why did you leave out HTC's Wifi share and the percentual battery meter?
Also, im not sure if Opera Mini is liking Jblend much, it seemed to bug the animations/screen changes after loading a few pages.
(for others, look in HKCU-Software-Jblend of the register, to make Jblend fullscreen)
That aside, i love it, great job for this lag-free Manilla 2.5 experience .
Very good Rom. I used it for the last few hours and there is no major bug to find. The only thing that Wifi on/off doesnt work over the Comm Manager but it works fine with the system settings.
Youtube fast is in High definition !!!
Yeah and my Battery is still at 100%?!

Some info:
Some difference in the manila is: No doc tab and no footprints. (probably can be added in future releases)
Also, this is manila 2.5 buildt for Topaz, witch has a smaller cpu. This means that speed has been improved, and weather animations are faster by default.
If you feel some features misses from my BL (leo based) that is natural, as this is all based from the topaz

Worst situation ever.
After successful completion of installing process, I reboot device and it won't go forward but stick on date and time window. I can't change the date, I am able to change time but date won't even able to click.
Did hard reset twice, after and twice before flashing the room, same odd situation, I lost all my previous data etc and now even can't install this room. Going to download any other room and gonna flash, meanwhile, if some one can give me quick advise. Thanks
Does the Camera button show X1 camera or htc camera??????

Hello everyone,
OK, here is my first go at ROM cooking.
I was looking for a very basic ROM with only must-have applications inside, so that I can later install the software I *do* use. Eventually I gave up, as all the ROMs and even the Lite'est ones had too much features / utilities. I thought I would then take the latest official ROM available (for stability purpose) and trim it down to minimum elements (for size reduction).
Herewith is what I ended up with:
http://rapidshare.com/files/3829100....25.91_Signed_Ship_trimmed_by_aziraphale_.rar
This in no way can be called a "cooked" ROM, I still know nothing about cooking, but it is a heavily trimmed stock ROM, created by the use of RhodiumKitchen_0.1, found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=560519.
Thanks Dave for this Tutorial and all the credits go to respective tools' developers.
How to install:
- unrar
- connect with ActiveSync (or loader in USB mode)
(goes without saying Your device must be Hard-SPL'd or modified any other way to allow ROM flashing - search the forum)
- execute RomUpdateUtility.exe
There are some residual unnecessary and/or invalid shortcuts in the Start Menu,
as well as some empty folders, I manually removed them by the use of EveryWAN personal edition - it's free and it's easy to use.
The OS is 6.5 b21887
I have trimmed the following from the stock ROM:
HTC applications:
- appointment editor
- clear storage (can do Hard reset in normal way)
- facebook / engine
- format SD (can't a PC do that?)
- CoPilot + install path folder (I use TomTom)
- birthday
- bookmark
- messaging client (hate it)
- jblend
- jetcet
- manila all
- opera (when You install newer version You end up with 2 )
- sliding sounds
- social networks engine
- streaming media
- tv out
- youtube
- volume control
- google maps (same as with opera)
- setting improvement
- text selection
- wifi wizard
- browser snapshot
- ie6 enhancement
- world card mobile (BCR)
- rss hub
System:
- live search
- wm widgets
- win live
- welcome center
- transcriber
- skymarket
- one note
- remote desktop
- themes except Rock and Republic
- my phone (skybox)
- livesearch
I do not expect this to become very useful to most of the forum visitors/members, but perhaps there is someone out there who have not found his/her way around to make ROMs him(her)self yet, but would like to get the very basic ROM with no extras.
Very hard to define "must have" apps. I personally prefer WM6.1 over WM6.5. Bad thing is you can't install every app\functionality by using CAB's. Otherwise you could create a ROM of around 40MB. Mine is currently ~70MB and is just great for my personal use.
Might be handy to add to the first post that your ROM is actually a WM6.5 ROM
Good luck on the cooking!

You said it yourself - the "must-have" are the ones that can not be added by .cabs and will compromise phone functionality (like the HTC dialer skin will enable video calls, thus must stay)

the "2.07.401.1" implies 6.5, but added to description anyway, thanks
Good effort dude I did much the same a month or so ago with an amalgamation of Ervius Visual Kitchen (so easy) and JoshKoss kitchen. Didn't go as savage on the removal of stuff though, main objective was to get rid of the HTC Messaging
Just tried May 1st 23xxx EnergyROM with MaxManila but it cuts off MP3 playback in standby (a big no-no for me) and hung once already while texting MaxManila is nice though, and the Facebook tab is good. I usually stick to 21xxx but I must say 23xxx is growing on me with the latest build. Gonna try Cell Pro next.
I like the latest stuff but keeping up with it all is a nightmare if you're cooking. Wouldn't mind the latest 2.5 Manila packages and latest 21xxx / 23xxx SYS, also would try cooking in MaxManila, and I never managed to cook in "mark all as read" for emails properly. Need to learn how to hack on Manila. Also I forgot to cook in a task manager haha Ameba is quite nice on the latest EnergyROM. I definitely get the "why cook it in if you can get it from Marketplace / OMarket and auto update it" though, totally with you on that one instead of flashing a new ROM every week. I usually flash a new one every month or so, once I find one I like. But for the last month or so I've been running my own. It wasn't the fastest ROM ever though
It's a lot of work to make a decent ROM, and it's finding the time innit. I'm a big fan of JoshKoss but he hasn't released anything in a while
Anyway good effort dude the more the merrier I say
Also just a quick note I did get the Standby Of Death a couple of times on my cooked ROM. Very rare but still. No idea why. Don't know if it happens with the stock ROM or not.
Would like to know how to totally remove HTC messaging, sometimes when texting via Manila it would still give the conversation view which runs like a dog when you have 4,800 messages hehe
And the speakerphone sometimes screwed up - I could hear the other party but they couldn't hear me.

Before going through the trouble of surgically removing the rudimentary software myself, I have tried a few "professionally" (read: respect, not sarcasm) cooked Energy and Leo ROMs, most of them VERY recent, but I found them SOOO packed with tweaks and features, that it would take me ages just to discover all the extras. I am more on the simplier side, don't fix something which is not broken, but I just HATE Manila (expect a lot of angry protestors here) and I am not big fan of HTC customisations either. Hence was this ROM done and I am so far rather happy with it.
There is no sign of HTC messaging which I can find, and I can install and use only necessary (for me) bits of software.
For "mark all as read" there is a really good .cab on the forum, called "safeboxextender", it works like a charm and I don't mind having to install it separately (i.e. not. cooked-in).
Having come from 1.86 ROM to 2.07 I do notice that device keeps hanging even without being put to sleep, but I can not figure out the dependency yet (I mean so far it looks rather random).

Yeah me too, those guys have spent probably 100's if not 1000's of hours on learning this stuff, then putting it together in a manner that pleases a lot of different people. Major kudos. I sometimes get the feeling though particularly with chefs who release almost every day, for a number of different devices, that the care and testing leaves something to be desired. Quite often more does not = better as you know

Yeah I tried converting that to an EXT and cooking it in but it didn't work I know it can be done though cos a lot of ROMs have it built in. To be honest I don't really have enough time anymore to dedicate to my own ROM so I'm trying out a few others.

It's weird ... Mine's never hung while running but I've had the SOD two or three times. More research required, until then just stick the pen up it's arse haha
Could you release an additional version with a later build SYS (ie: 23XXX or 28XXX)? A lot of people use 6.5.5 or 6.5.3 and there are no Lite options for those later builds.

i'd love to, but....
as i said i am no cook and i only did it for myself and cared enough to share with anyone who'd love to have it "as is".
also, see the respective later-release ROM threads to see how many bugs are there still and ROM-cooking gurus are eliminating them one by one and it's a long and painstaking process. i have neither time, nor ability to do that.
so i guess this is as much as i can do so far.
I've been using the ROM for a few days now and it is great. Everything works perfect. Bluetooth, tethering, wifi, data connections; it all works great with no bugs Thanks for sharring. I love a clean ROM.

very good!
Well I think I have ran the gamet of tezts and this ROM is perfect. It is fast and stable trimmed down well but still offering everything a user needs. I am on AT&T in the states and it works perfect. The only thing I cant figure out is how do I shut of the vibration when using the on screen key board? And can I add a picture mail program to my device? Would it function properly and could you recommend one?
jamespaulritter said:

that would be by manually editing registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\TFLOSettings]
"ApVibrationOn"=dword:00000000
it is 1 by default, change it to 0 and you are all set

this here i am not sure what you mean?
whatever you add (install) SHOULD function properly, if it would have on a stock ROM,
as i have not made any changes to remaining ROM bits
edit: if you open Albums and select any picture You want, it will open in full screen, tap it, and 4 icon menu comes up, 3rd from the left with 2 arrows > tap this one and there is an option *mail*.
select the account (i would use email) and voila! is that what you were looking for?
Thanks Aziraphale_l I was talking about MMS. I want to send and receive picture mail with text messaging. Right now I cant send or recieve pictures except with email. But of course my friends do not have pda phones so we use MMS picture mail.
I was guessing this is what you said you removed. I looked for arcsoft for 6.5 and I see that HTC is now using "HTC Message" so I will go look for that. Thanks again.

HTC messaging, which I understand handles MMS functionality in our devices, has evolved into... well, something I did not like any more, so it had to go.
I personally don't use MMS, so it is no big deal for me.
Your ArcSoft link below - I see no reason why it will not work, give it a try? You can then share Your findings with the rest of us.
P.S. Battery life on this ROM is the best I have ever seen!
I have tried a dozen ROMs and I usually stick with them for a month or so I guess. They are either lite with bugs or heavy with eye candy and bugs. So far I haven't had a single issue with yours. I think many developers get in to much of a hurry. I appreciate the great job you did on this.
I notice today that to get from one task to another, one program to another or one event to another I use fewer steps because everything is simple and functional. Thanks again.
I cooked in Arcsoft_MMS_5_2_8_45 on mine, after pulling out HTC Messaging, if I remember rightly it worked but it's very rare I use MMS anyway. If you install it afterwards, re-run carrier provisioning (or whatever it's called ... where it sets up your network settings automatically) and it should configure Arcsoft for ya.
Right now I'm running EnergyROM 23xxx from 1st of May but battery is suffering and it crashes a bit, not mega fast either. It is a nice flashy ROM tho I used to hate 23xxx and much prefer 21xxx but lately I'm kinda undecided.
Thanks for the haptic feedback registry edit; works great.
