I've just got an Orange SPV M700 I am told that the HTC version of the ROM for the Trinity comes with a Task Manager Icon in the Setting section.
This, as I understand it, allows you to control the way in which you end programs. ie. you can actually STOP them by hitting the cros instead if closing them and leaving them running in the background.
Orange for some silly reason has not included this. Anyone know how I can add it?
Is it a registry tweak or a program...?
Thanks in advance!!

Here you are:
I think that work's for you...
anyone got this to work with m700 as i have tried and it does not
Ok so i manage to make a cab from file's to i take from windows dir...
Here it is test it and say if work's..
Thank's
no joy, have the icon in the system tab for task manager and have enabled the x button but the programs still run under memory - running programs list.
I'd just like to add that if you're looking for a better app than that HTC one is Handyswitcher by Dinarsoft. Sure it costs around $6 or so but it's an essential tool.

I've got the HTC version with English ROM and it doesn't have a Task Manager setting. You have been misinformed.
I no the UK one hasn't but if you use the GPS enabled ROM downloadable from here (as a colleague of mine has) then the Task Manager is present. this is the function I'm after! I also a a Newbie to all this mobile stuff (I've been in IT since DOS version 1 though!) cannot understand the merrit in leaving the programs running....perhaps someone can explain this to me, ie. the Pros and Cons of exiting agains Closing programs.
Ta!

Not that I really believe what I am saying but leaving memory management to the OS should allow for the most often used applications to run in background so that they can move to foreground very quickly when you need them. As a matter of fact with large programs like Opera it makes quite a difference.
Tried the Task Manager Cab and it does not work, it still leaves the programs resident in memory. All install ok and behaves itself and appears to be find but just plain old fashioned "does not work" Sorry!
Any other thoughs ideas from anyone?
Hey guys,
Im looking to flash a new ROM onto my Wing for the 1st time and I'd like to kind of take baby steps. I believe HardSPL can lead to bricking and im not really willing to take that chance, So I need a SoftSPL ROM because I just cant put up with how slow the Stock Wing ROM is with the software I have installed.I type 3x faster than the letters show up on the screen
Im looking for a rom WM 6.0 or 6.1 doesn't matter but 6.1 would be cool I would also like to have to do as little after install fixes as possible. I know some ROMS have bluetooth and mms issues that Id rather not have to fix if possible.
Here is what I have installed on the stock ROM, maybe this list can help you see what I need/want in a ROM
HTC Task Manager
HTC Home2.x
HTC 10 button comm manager
HTC Dialer Skin
HTC Calculator skin
HTC Album
duttythroy Task Manager
psShutXP
Battery Status
PMH Registry Editor
Finster869 WMR Remote Desktop
Vicsoft Clear Temp
Thank you very much.

Look at the Open Touch Series. Its USPL so you dont have to hard SPL your phone. I currently use 4.0 Lite and it works great for me. 5.0 is currently in the process of being released I beleive some time this week. Check it out...

Yeah, I agree. I would def. check out the open touch series. Easy to flash to, and comes with a lot of goodies.
I have been using the herald-uspl flashcenter for all the rom I found on this board, including opentouch, touch-it, ASerg, ITSPapaBlack, etc, without hardspl.
Thanks guys, I went with the Open Touch 4.0 Lite and so far im happy with it. MUCH MUCH faster then the TMO Rom

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.

Manila is Touchflo 3D. The HTC UI that sits on top of winmo

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!

hello i have a question...the only two options we have for the kaiser is windows mobile and Android or we can flash it to something else?i bought this cell phone here in greece for 750 euro when it first came out but it's laggy!and i mean really laggy...i tried almost all the roms available but in the end the fastest was the factory one so i came back to it...i was hoping that Android (like every linux system)would run much faster than windows mobile but i had no luck either and the camera-bluetooth issue really annoys me...so is there a way to make this phone fast?either changing the o.s or i don't know maybe another way?i see other htc's like HD2 and Htc Touch II and they are so fast with the menus and everything...not to mention the iphone...jesus christ i press the messages button and it takes about 3 seconds to open the menu and another three seconds to let me start typing...also when i start typing the text start to show after i finished a whole sentence and sometimes is corrupt (characters missing)...anyone else experiencing the same issues?is there something to be done or i just have to get another phone?last i forgot to mention that i used Android with the haret method and not the full flash.is it a big difference?to me it's the same or worse from windows mobile...thanks!
anyone?come on 120 views and 0 reply?
Windows Mobile and Android are the only options. Android is a ported version for the Kaiser and will only run on top of WM. It will never be as good as or as fast as a version running natively because no version was ever made to run on the Kaiser. So for now and in the near ( and far ) future, it is what it is, a slower ported version.
I can't agree with you on the laggyness of the Kaiser or of " all " the custom roms. I have used many and find them at least as fast as stock and in most cases ( due to the lack of carrier bloatware ) much faster.
Are you seriously comparing a 2+ year old phone ( Kaiser ) with a 400Mhz processor and 128Mb of ram with HTC's current flagship model ( HD2 ) with a 1Ghz snapdragon processor and 448 Mb of ram. Gee I wonder why it is faster
2+ years ago, the iPhone didn't even have 3G. You need to compare Apples to Apples and Oranges to Oranges. If you want a blazingly fast . state of the art phone, don't buy a 2+ model year old phone.
For now, try flashing a lite or naked rom. Add only the apps that you want. Get and use a good task manager so that you can easily kill all background tasks and apps that are not being used. Get " Cleartemp " and "Clean Ram"
to clean out unwanted left over files and use KaiserTweaks or Advanced Configuration to tweak the performance. You will feel like you have a new ( 2 year old ) phone.
thanks for the advice...any chance of overclocking the phone?

I stand corrected, it is tough to keep up on new versions of things you care nothing about. Apparently last month they came out with a version that erases WM and will run from NAND.
Still no Camera, still no Bluetooth, still no Flash,Java or YouTube.
Can't run WM apps, think you are limited on what Android apps can be run. Version still a bit wonky and requires a lot of user input to setup and get working properly, but hey, you get to say that you have Android running on your Tilt.

NRG needs to be customized to work faster. I find it very fast. But I don't use all of the tabs, and I overclock my CPU to 710.
Did you install the newest version, listed in my signature?

About tabs, you can disable some, just swipe to settings tab on HTC Sense, choose "personalize" then "Home screen tabs", uncheck tabs you want to remove.

Where to start? The following is a subset of my phone settings. I've been tweaking them for months, and I would be hard pressed to provide a full list.
The OC app is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=698374
As to customizing, the setting tab will allow you to remove the tabs you don't use. I found that I actually only use 4 of them. The rest just take up memory.
I also use BsB Tweaks (in the Tools folder) to set a high glyph and IP cache.
The other thing to do is to go into the Settings and change the start menu to be the Sense version. This will give you and extra 30 Mb or so of memory, and this will make the device faster. Do this step last, because it will be difficult to get to the NRG Tools menu unless you revert back to the default WM start menus.
EDIT: But you should be aware that NRG is not customized for speed. There are faster ROMs available. But NRG has lots of nice stuff, and the latest operating systems and programs.

jackos rom without a doubt. --->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632617
Keep in mind that it usually takes some time for a newly flashed ROM to "settle in". The performance you see right away is not indicitive of how the ROM will perform long term. Maybe files are still being setup? Not really sure why this is so. But don't freak out until you've used the ROM for a couple hours. Plus the battery meter will not be accurate. It needs to be calibrated by charging the phone to 100%, then down to 30%, and repeat a couple times.
If you've been using the ROM for a while, and done a few of the tweaks to streamline performance as other have suggested, its possible it was a bad flash. Task29 and start over.
But its also possible that a more lightweight ROM is for you. Energy is a nice balance of performance, aesthetics, and features. But some like to sacrifice some eye candy for a more lightweight ROM, like Jackos that someone else suggested.
I've used the EnergyROMs on my TP2, as well as Simplicity and Jackos, all are great roms. EnergyROMs have many cooked in useful apps and awesome features, Simplicity is lighter and well.. simpler than Energy and Jackos has amazing memory management and the best ROM if you're going for WM6.5.0.
I am a sucker for speed, and the fastest you can go is stock WM6.5 with no HTC Sense. I'm currently using Jackos SleekBasic with TouchFlo3D, just flashed yesterday, IMO its faster than all ROMs I tried except stock WM, its not really pretty and not many features, but I can live with it. Good batt life too...
OndraSter's WM 6.5 TF3D ROM is the fastest ROM I have ever used. Check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=642956&highlight=OndraSter
Jacko's is by far the cleanist Ive seen its actually functional and has 110mb free after 2nd reboot... Great rom's.. Not a nrg fan anymore either.. especially cause he doesnt bother to actually test them on the devices he makes them for.
I used a lot of ROMs from this forum, and I can confirm that the Jackos is the fastest and stablest that I tried (I'm actually using the smartmove flavour).
Ondraster's also is quite fast and stable, but I find that jackos looks better
