Touch Pro2 wm 6.1 & Touchflo 2.5 - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development

Hello, I have the Verizon Touch Pro2 cell phone, and I just flashed the new official wm 6.5 Rom to it a couple of days ago. So far, I am not to happy with it. The battery drains too fast and the GPS is acting funky. Not to mention, I hate the new Start Menu.
The reason for this post is to see if it is possible to make a custom ROM that is the factory wm 6.1 OS, but I also want it to include the new Touchflo 2.5 from the Leo Rom, or the Touchflo that is included with the official Verizon wm 6.5 Rom.
I have not played with custom Roms since my old Sprint Titan phone, and I am looking for a little direction. Thanks so much!

I'm currently working on a WM6.1 + Sense 2.5 ROM.

That would be amazing! I love the new Sense UI, and I much prefer the WM 6.1 start menu over the new honeycomb variety. If you need some help testing it, please let me know.

I have a lot of problems with it, so I don't think it will be soon.

That is understandable. If I can be of any help let me know. Thanks!

Trust me, it's smooth... However, full of bugs ;D

I'm starting to see it is going to take a little bit of massaging to make it work right. I downloaded the BuildOS and attempted to make a 6.1 ROM with the Sense UI integrated. I flashed it, and while the phone works, most of the Sense UI screens won't accept my touch input, and most won't scroll as well. Have you at least gotten this working yet?
All I know is I am pretty geeked to try the new Sense UI, it looks very sweet!

how about some non-diamond roms./.

if i wanted diamond rom, i would buy a diamond.. i mean i appreciate the work but whats up with some kaiser roms for the kaiser
if you look, you will find some new non-diamond roms
L26's Diamond v9 is not a diamond rom. It's a kaiser rom that just looks like a diamond rom. You should get that. It's from an official kaiser rom rather than from a diamond rom.
Kraize
Some people want a diamond but can't get it. This is just a great way to get that diamond look on the Kaiser. The rom choice is yours.
I also suggest you go for the lite roms if you don't want the diamond appeal and such.
I haven't flashed any of the diamond roms, because of their lack of stability. I'm sticking w/ dutty's APR29 WM6.1 Hybrid. I like it A bunch of people have flashed back to this rom
Try garmins or romeo, duttys/leo`s or hyperdragon, or any other of the non diamond port -> non diamond series. There are many out there

Every rom is going to have bugs. There are fixes you just have to search. I'm pretty sure you can go to google and type in "gps problems kaiser" ..You know what I'll do it for you!!
Look at the top results... start there.
I would go in one of those threads and search within the thread for your problem, if you can't find it. Ask the question in that thread. You'll have other people with GPS problem willing to assist. Geez... It doesn't take long for the love of god. I searched, screenshot, uploaded to photobucket and made this post in less than 5 minutes. (maybe because I type fast) but still you get the jist of it.

Full Screen HTC Home on Tytn II

Hi Guys,
Ever since I've seen the new(?) HTC Home on the new Touch HD, I thought to myself I've gotta have it!
Is there somewhere I can grab it? I've searched the forums for HTC Home, but I don't know the version number, so I don't really know which version to look for.
In case you guys don't know what I mean, here's the piccie from Engadget, where I first saw it: -

muchas gracias guys.... I don't think I Would have known about that until you guys told me .
What does the "2d" part of the name mean? I originally thought it was a 2 dimensional version of touch flo!

There is a TouchFlo 3D on the Diamond and Rapheal, but, seen as though HTC "forgot" the 3D drivers for the Kaiser, we have to use the one with 2D rendering.

ah, yes...
Guess it might be time to trade up soon then, eh? I'll be trying out the new TF2D a bit later...

Old style TouchFlo on Diamond?

First of all: don't laugh. For quite a while I have been using a HTC Wizard with WM6 and fell in love with the TouchFlo 2D interface, as seen on the Kaiser. This one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now I have a Diamond and I just can't get used to the 3D interface. So basically I want the classic WM6 look back, including the old TouchFlo as shown in the above picture.
I already managed to cut down the font size in windows and menus to be WM5/6-like, but would love to have the 2D interface back. Anyone has a clue where to find it (if it even exists)?
ps. I came across this but for some reason it's ugly

Nope, best thing I have come across so far are bad-looking skins.

please vote: is it worth to make a new wvga sense 2021 cab?

here the orginal Thread:
please vote: is it worth to make a WVGA HTC Sense 2021 cab?
I think manila runs better when cooked...also installing custom clock, and mods will be easy when cooked in...just my $2/100...
I think it will be nice to have a cab of sense!
It's not Sense 2021, but it is 2019 for those that want to try it now. It's a beast and definitely runs better when cooked...
Find it HERE

I need a lot more time than a "standard" "clean" ROM cooking. It contains over 4,000 files. I will only make this cab if enough users vote in favor. pls vote and do not forget-to hit the thenks button I need a gooood motivation for this hard project
Installing Sense by a cab file is obviously a bad idea.
I second making a cab. I think it is a good idea if new users wish to try out its features.
