How about posting some screens for various applications?

[nittin_sp]

right away sir

[eaglesteve]

Thanks for posting the screens.

I guess it's a personal thing, but I prefer to view the device in 128dpi, with wktask, with a 3D glassy top and bottom bar, with both date and time on the taskbar of every screen, just to list some of the main things I would tailor.

Hey, whatever appeal to you, enjoy your device

[nittin_sp]

U can always customize the view and 128dpi can be installed

[bartito]

i'm confused with your screenshots.


are simply qvga, non?

I love changing the color of my theme every now and then. One of the quickest ways of to use tweaks2k2. It gives you the 3d glassy look. Depending on my mood, I like to switch between blue, green, black, etc. Be very careful though when you use tweak2k2. Don't let it trigger any soft reset(always use stylus into the hole method) or else you may be stuck on primary splash and you'll be forced to hard reset.

thanx for the info and warning. i do too. currently running 192dpi, snapvue, and snavue tsk on my rom. will probably go back to setup u see in dual screenies when i get realvga cooked back into rom im currently running.

Does this rom contain the latest Opera? That's the only reason I see to upgrade to this. Font size looks like it does when you change the screen settings to a smaller font on the 'screen' menu. I assume you can change the pink theme with the windows standard.

[nittin_sp]

the opera version is build 8.65(2627)
the rom is overall very fast
the text resolution is vga like and we can get rid of the cuteiii pink colour.
the ap3 dual rom is superior in many aspects but this rom is good for all those who want a clean rom without any addons.
hey powell can u please post a lite addition of your touch dual rom it would be great
perhaps I also forgot to mention that this rom solves the micro drive issue in ameo.
Powell can u please give add ons seperately.

Leoni,

Why not try out this Opera and see if you like it better?

Ok, ive begun testing this ROM Eaglesteve and here are my observations thus far:

Opera is identical to the others, although a nice resolution mod has been done with the url bar, making it smaller and neater than the versions seen in other ROMS. there is no immediate reference to 'opera' within the application in that it is referred to as 'web n walk' in the start menu, and the homepage is www.t-mobilefavourites.co.uk. for those wishing to use t-mobile's tv service this functionality is now restored for wm6.
on the whole i feel that the download and render time with this version of Opera is the slowest i've seen. there is no flash support and this is NOT the latest Opera build (or anywhere near). this indicates that HTC have a limited deal with Opera which does not include the more recent version - no free upgrade then.
I found both browsers to be unusually slow, even after various tweaks.

T-mobile have removed Windows Live from this ROM.

They have included (the completely pointless) F-Secure Antivirus, which annoyingly pops up an installation window upon every soft reset.

The 'H'SDPA icon is not enables by default for some unknown reason. this is surely a step backwards from the old T-Mobile ROM.

t-mobile sounds are preset by default. they are horrendous.

some of the 'band' settings have been removed in line with what's available in western europe.

dialpad is a modified pink|grey, as is the comms screen.

there is a t-mobile home plugin similar to htc's, but with 'web n walk' last dialled, file explorer and SIM manager.

this ROM seems more sluggish than touch dual overall, and is missing a great deal of decent features that id gotten used to with Touch.

will try a hard reset with no installed t-mobile CABs and report back

[eaglesteve]

Thanks for the quick feedback.

You mentioned that the address bar is smaller. This is interesting. Could you post a screen shot on that?

sorry eaglesteve i dont have the screenshot utility that comes with touch, otherwise id send you a screenshot.

update though: this ROM is an absolute dog. it's slooooow, web pages dont load up very fast and for the first time in ages im getting the "this page cannot be found" dialogue in p.i.e. on random occasions. ive also had opera randomly shut down on me twice.

can someone else try this ROM and tell me im not mistaken? the only apps ive installed are wktask, fingertouch and htc home
so far i can't believe t-mobile have unleashed a pile of crap like this on the public. its bad enough that they make their handsets look so rubbish.

one last set of points to t-mobile:

we DONT need antivirus. really.

we DONT need to be asked if we're sure we want to go online/sure we want to close the browser.

we dont like pink today screens and phones with pink bits on them

we DO want you to employ Pawel and the team to develop decent ROMs in future.

[eaglesteve]

Is this ROM the standard WM6 ROM provided by T Mobile to work on the Ameo? The quality is very different from those provided by Dopod.

[leoni1980]

Just switched back to the Touch Dual ROM.

I encourage anyone Interested in it to avoid this ROM at all costs except for warranty purposes. Glitchy, slow, overbranded, RUBBISH.

YUK.

lol nice.

to the poster asking about vanilla: i could remove everything except pk programs 3.0(task manager+regedit and screenshot app) and leave in tsk, welcomhead, and all the reg edits i have done BUT the available space on the device with or without dual will remain the same.

its not worth it.

use file explorer and go into windows/start menu/programs and removed whatever u dont use. it will clean up the program's folder and u can go ahead and do same with system folder.

it will look clean that way and if u decide u want to use a app that i cooked in you just add shorcut back in. also for battery/qwerty menu just go ahead and remove the shortcuts for those from windows/startup and those are gone.

switch to a different tsk like says windows mobile default and u look vanilla. for say the control panel apps just ignore or remove from windows folder.

Ur rom looks vanilla and it will have same space as a vanilla rom. also u can go ahead after the black tsk is displayed and soft reset device to not install extended rom stuff and reduce apps installed.

T Mobile has put its customisations, so if u check opera, the proxy is enabled.
If u remove the proxy all work well.
Results are better, when one flashes only OS.nb converted to NBH and use, so u do not have any T Mobile Crap installed

Hi hdubli,

Would be nice to hear more detailed feedback from you on this ROM.

So, what did you use this and what's your opinion regarding its speed and stability? Did you use Midget's tool to create a 16MB page pool or no?

I gave up I'm afraid.

Prefer everything about Black Touch and it works how I want it pretty much out of the box. Don't really see any point in using this ROM, I was just satisfying my curiosity.

[oscarlbf]

Does anyone knows if this rom works in the Eten M600, thks.
