I m using a TL version !!

Thx for try to help me..!!!

Anyone know ?

After you set you location in TF3D, save then exit, then save and exit again. Reload the home plugin or soft reset. Your location weather should change.

Just a quick update from me.

The GPRS/EDGE is the only thing I can't get working. Everything else seems to function ok. Still figuring out TF but I think I like it. I lucked out as the conference has free WiFi so am still "connected". Looking forward to the new/updated biggy ROM :)

could you try and just reflash one of the other radio versions yourself and confirm that it works? I know of at least 2 floating around here somewhere , cant remember exactly where but I have done it myself before. maybe in the OT 4.0 version

update:
found it on post #3 in that thread. its just the radio and splash screen, thats all it updates.

Ok a couple things..

First off, TL seems like it could be very beneficial but i have had a couple issues that I havent really seen brought up.

For starters evertime that i pull out my keyboard, to write a text, email, browser, whatever... it seems to pull up the dialer first and i have to exit from there..

Secondly I am confused as all hell as to the messaging pane. I mean i get a message and i can view it, but i cant respond through that screen. it brings me to another screen then i hit reply and it brings me to a new text message. that seems like alot of unnecessary steps to respond to a text. am i seeing this wrong?

I like the feel.. it is a bit sluggish, but is definately better than alot out there. If these two issues along with the connection issue was resolved, I think that i would use it.

I appreciate all that you are doing ttran and just to let you kno i have been using your roms since i got my wing!! I think this rom would be perfect if the sluggish feel was gone... im running at 299 ocld and it still quite slow. other thank that you have created a flawless rom yet again =)..

You can always place the device into bootloader mode by holding on to the camera buttton and then performing a soft reset.
Do not let go of the camera button until you see the rainbow looking screen.

loaded the new one and set it up (spb) version and the fixes seemed to work fine. I think there are like 5 ways to get to the comm manager and the connection setup didnt work the first time so I turned off spb ms2 and used the network wizard and it worked just fine. I may not have waited long enough for the connection setup to activate but I thonk I did. I really like this rom ttran, I liked the look of the last comm manager (white with green sliders) but at least this one works. I downloaded the other one as well and maybe i'll try it tomorrow morning. thanks again for your efforts.

using the 6.1 light of spb i read back a few pages (at least to what i thought was the release) and i dont think this has been addressed. When you run the network wizard via settings (not through spb) everything sets up right but it changes my softkey back to contacts. spb doesnt show up in the programs or set on the right softkey. i can change the softkey myself but i figured i'd throw it out there for people who come and go into the spb environment a lot. ttran this rom works wonderfully. thats the only "problem" if you can call if that, that i have ran into.

Diamond Lite SPB cannot send a text, I went to type one up and hit send and it just sits on the same text message I setup. Also, when switching between menus sometimes the screen goes to a blank touch flo 3d background.

-----edit-------

Applied the threaded_sms.html fix from previous version of opentouch able to send texts now.

how to change city in diamond throttle?

well it's a lite version so a bunch of removed apps. t mobile proxy works now. it's faster then before. not a WHOLE lot as in spb is still faster(but not free as stated). so far i like it better then spb though. as for the typing comment i saw. when you slide the keyboard out the blinking cursor defaults off the box so it started to dial UNLESS you tap where the cursor is supposed to be. im playing with the settings now and has anyone done this at all yet? if you change some of the timings that "sluggish" feeling goes away mostly.

as for the weather question while in throttle launcher go to settings and it should be the first tab on the top it says touchflo3d and looks like a checkmark, go to weather and type in your city. when your done reload your today and it should work.
edit: well it worked just took a couple tries for some reason.
anyone know where it checks the weather at? accuweather or weather.com or where at?

I have internet/data working, I have the weather set up, I have pictures looking at the right folder (tho still trying to figure out how to get them to display in a different format)...but I'm having trouble with the mail.

TTran here is a little feed back on the Lite Diamond SPB.

I notice you remove some stuff from SPB and fix the issue from the 1st version. Speed wise is almost the same. However look like it freezes more often than the first version. So far I encounter freezing 5 times while browsing through different menu or contacts ( I have nothing else running).

I'm reflashing it a second time to see how it run. I'll let you know how it turn out. Overall I love this rom so far :)

You should just be able to plug your phone into your computer. It will seem like it doesnt see it because it wont run activesnyc. Then try to flash as normal and it should work.

well its not to bad. there is one downside.. i think that you are only able to put it one of your accts to show up on the blank pieces of paper that you see there... the way to change it is the same way that you did with the weather but instead go to the mail tab. from that tab you are going to see the bottom 2 fields saying "activesync"... all you have to do is replace were ever it says "activesync" exactly the same way as it read... just go to start menu --> messaging... there you will see your accts and it will say the name of the acct and just type it in there verbatum... make sure with the capitalizations and spaces... i hope that you understand it...

Enjoy,

I just updated and had some questions...

1. I can't seem to get into the SPB settings, when I click on the cube button for it, I get the thinking symbol then doesn't do it. If I back out of it to the today screen and go through the normal Windows button, it doesn't show up as an installed program for me to tailor it around, am I missing something?

2. When I do back out to the today screen, my buttons at the bottom no longer give me the option to get back into teh SPB menu, so I have to lock the phone then unlock to get back into it. Before I didn't see any of these issues. I don't see where I can program what the softkey does on the Today screen anyway.

3. About half of the programs I have tried to launch from within the SPB programs listing never pull up, the "hourglass" just spins for a moment then goes back to the screen I was on before. This was working in the other version without issue, didn't know what changed.

Otherwise this is just a zippy if not a bit more then before, wifi seems to be working fine now and it is pretty damn nice. If I could get the some hints on teh above two items I'd be happy than a pig in slop.

I have it at work, I changed the version since folks were complaining that the radio version drains the battery more.

As for activesync, I know it works since I tested it on two computers before posting the rom.

As for spb mobile shell, I think my package is messed up.

He had some strange looking theme on it and looked at mine when I was testing the wm7 build.

He then asked me what interface is that?

I said it's my new wm7 style rom.

He said what do you mean your rom?

We started talking and he said he worked at MS and had access to the latest build.

He then showed off his old as* build to me.

I started to laugh and he said what are you laughing about.

I then told him that his build is so old that I released it way back in Jan.

He then said well what build is your device on and I showed him.

His face turned a little red.

I then showed him the rest of what my TWing could do and he said you make me sick.

Sorry for the long post but I thought it was kind of funny.

TTran can you also take a look at the Weather in Lite Diamond SPB? Once the location has been enter, I can't change it to a different location.

After I reflash it a 2nd time, so far no freezing.

There is a setting section where you have to remove the first location before you add the second one.

Try reflashing the rom, it might have gotten corruped during the download.

I tested spb very well since I had to hand make the oem packages.

That took me some time...lol and my flashs to just test the package.

First, thanks for doing this, with all the various tweaks from the pagepool (making the camera actually useful) to the custom roms (more fun and more memory than stock, although that rom was well integrated... if you like MS stuff like live space) this website and the talented individuals here have been a Godsend for this phone.

1) The roms... is it possible to create a bone-stock rom for the phone, without any shells or other programs and use .cabs to install all of the different programs and a shell, or does the shell perform best/only when cooked into the ROM?

I compare it to the "restore" disks that come with Dell/HP/Compaq computers and a Windows disk from MS. The restore disks will reformat and reinstall the Windows software, along with all of the optional software and shareware that came with the computer, but the Windows disk just installs the OS, and that's it.

2) The customization. After flashing, calibrating the screen and setting the time zone, the phone starts a customization cycle. I have heard I can do a stylus soft-reset right then, and it will not install all the other software. What will this get me? Is this the answer to question #1? Will I need to associate things like .jpg files to picture viewer manually? Any problems associating SMS/MMS? Any savings on program memory? (Like most, I want as much program memory as possible, the SD card can hold everything else.)

That sound like my micro version, also available from ivammj and pappa.

Thats going to be the last version I make since its always based off of my final roms.

I just go backwards and strip it down smaller than 51MB.

Currently most herald cooks have only been able to get about 30MB for programs due to the structure of the hardware itself.

As for storage space my good friend ivannmj has been able to get it up to 70MB.

Just hang tight and I will have the micro done next week after I finish up the WM7.

In my office, people has an iPhone, 2 Blackberries, and a Tmobile Dash. Everytime after I flash your new rom and show them, they were just jealous. The guy with the iPhone told me to stop show him my wing because it make him want to sell his iPhone. I told him that I only use the lite version, if I use the biggy he will sell his iPhone quicker.

Just an update.. I ran into an issue today where dialing voice mail, entering my password, then clicking on "Hide Keypad" (wanted to turn on speaker) locked up the phone. Required a stylus poking to reset. This happened 3 times. I gave up trying to use speaker. This is with biggy.

Also in TF on the main clock screen where it says "X missed calls" can that section activate the missed call screen? I keep hitting it but it does nothing. Seems like it should take you to your missed calls.

The post about the mail piece of paper I agree with; it is confusing. ttran001 is there a good place to provide feedback to TF3d?

Otherwise... I'm still impressed and your post about the MS employee is priceless.

The only other issue I'm having, which I believe is an MS issue, is I can't run two apps at once. If I start Opera and then Agile Messenger it will close Opera. My understaning is that this is just the way the newer versions of WM deal with not enough program memory? Can someone confirm? Anyway to correct this other then removing programs to free memory?


thanks again

Softkey will fix the problem with the spb shell not showing up. Just extract and copy it to your windows folder on the device and you’ll have a new application in Settings\System with which you can quickly edit the soft keys

The problem happens when you hit the red phone button and it causes the spb menu to disappear. By setting the softkey for that app, you can now make it reappear without soft reseting your phone. The address below is where you can find this softkey.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=60308&d=1196672414

If you're not interested in the softkey, you can turn your phone off by the top button and turn it back on and it will cause the spb menu to reappear as well. I hope this helps....

Thanks ttran for all your hard work....

First off your not being annoying, your simply stating isues your having.
Which is perfectly fine with me, this helps me fix and make my roms better.

I'm just use to using the work old timer, which to me means people that have been flashing my roms for a long time.

Not to anything else.

We can go at this two different ways.

One, remove and reinstall active synce or simply delete any existing profiles.

Or you can try and flash the original rom and see if you still have activesync.

Or try what joking posted ealier.

Let me know how it goes and thanks for your support.

I just updated and had some questions...

1. I can't seem to get into the SPB settings, when I click on the cube button for it, I get the thinking symbol then doesn't do it. If I back out of it to the today screen and go through the normal Windows button, it doesn't show up as an installed program for me to tailor it around, am I missing something?

2. When I do back out to the today screen, my buttons at the bottom no longer give me the option to get back into teh SPB menu, so I have to lock the phone then unlock to get back into it. Before I didn't see any of these issues. I don't see where I can program what the softkey does on the Today screen anyway.

3. About half of the programs I have tried to launch from within the SPB programs listing never pull up, the "hourglass" just spins for a moment then goes back to the screen I was on before. This was working in the other version without issue, didn't know what changed.

Otherwise this is just a zippy if not a bit more then before, wifi seems to be working fine now and it is pretty damn nice. If I could get the some hints on teh above two items I'd be happy than a pig in slop.

Have noticed the same problems as above. Plus the top bar doesn't fully function with SPB running. About the only thing the will work on it is the volume. If connecting to internet and wanting to disconnect, can't hit the top bar and do it as it won't while SPB is running.

TTran can you confirm if you are going to upload a newer version of the Spb? I have the same problem as others... I have flashed it a second time and still have the same hangs...

1. About half of the programs I have tried to launch from within the SPB programs listing never pull up, the "hourglass" just spins for a moment then goes back to the screen I was on before. This was working in the other version without issue, didn't know what changed.

2. Deleting emails seems to have a glitch as the application freeze and it does take a few trials and soft resets to finally delete them... Anybody else has that problem?

3. When I do back out to the today screen, my buttons at the bottom no longer give me the option to get back into teh SPB menu, so I have to lock the phone then unlock to get back into it.

4. From time to time, i get error messages in the middle of the screen:
Notification Error: Cannot execute clocknot.exe
Notification Error: Cannot execute repllog.exe
Do you know where this could be coming from?

Hey everyone,

TTRan, first of…. You are the man. Thank you.

I though that the both launchers (SPB Shell and TL) are cool but not as efficient and useful in everyday life like a HTC home plug-in (my opinion)

Here is what I have done so far:

1. Picked up the first build of the diamond rom v6.

2. Removed the spb shell and related files.

3. Installed the HTC home (you can find the cab on xda)

4. Made sure that the gmail account is not setup using IMAP but POP (IPAM uses way too much battery, even under-clocked)

5. Installed a black version of the dialer (like the one installed but black with numbers and letters on the dial keys)

6. I have also installed other apps via cabs to my SD.

The build plus the mods I have made listed above make this build the best so far…(for me)

Other than the wifi comm. manager reg fix (I am looking for), the rom is great.

Just wanted to share my experience……….

Again, thank you TTRAN.

I have a questions about TL if anyone can answer this. how do we make new icons in the programs tab? i can't seem to find a way to do it. the reason i ask this is because after installing a few cabs they DO NOT show up in the programs tab. i can still get to them by going through the start menu but it kind of defeats the purpose. so far making the icons open specific programs works a lot better then it opening a page. i wish i could figure more out with TL -_-.

I think I need 2 wings to compare these ROMs side by side. I got frustrated w/ the TL lite version because I couldn't get email to work correctly, and it seemed a bit sluggish to me. But I really liked the weather, especially since I believe the weather is animated when you have rain/storms (is this correct?)....one of those things that would be fun to show off to people.

So for now, I went back to the SPB version, but I'm still getting my emails over & over again (they don't delete off the server, even tho my settings are set up for that to happen). And like someone said, it requires Oxio to be run frequently the phone locked up when I tried to listen to music after I had done a few other things....

Is there a .cab for just the weather part of TL? If so, I might just take that and tweak the micro version just the way I like it...when it's released.

In the meantime...my phone is going to get worn out from me flashing back & forth between ROMs....they both have strong points, and I really do like both...just trying to figure out which one will work BEST for me.

weather took me 6 or 7 tries for it to finally work and stick. the only working versions right now are the LITE versions. ttran hasn't had the time to release the working biggy yet but you know he's doing his best ( like always ). I have a questions about TL if anyone can answer this. how do we make new icons in the programs tab? i can't seem to find a way to do it. the reason i ask this is because after installing a few cabs they DO NOT show up in the programs tab. i can still get to them by going through the start menu but it kind of defeats the purpose. so far making the icons open specific programs works a lot better then it opening a page. i wish i could figure more out with TL -_-.

its fairly easy.... all you need to do is go to the internet tab. and you will see the default ones there.. such as IE, google, xda-develpoers, etc... on the top left there is a + button... once you click on that it will pull up the programs and what not and then just hit the right soft key for "new".. once you do that it will give you the option on the bottom stating internetlink or program... check the requested one and map out the file and name it.. press ok and bam!!! you got it :)

Oh that. I think TTran take it out of the rom along with other stuffs to free more space on the current Lite Diamond SPB version.

The first version he posted has those setting.

Edit: If you want the first version of Lite Diamond SPB, the link is on post #369.

Couple things you need to know. The CitiesDB need to be replace in order to show the list of city for weather. The wifi button in Comm Manager doesn't work right, you have to use WLAN to turn it on and off. The dial pad sometime has a black block on the top center.

I don't think it's a problem with the ROM, but rather the program. I flashed Open Touch v6.0 Biggy Throttle Launcher TouchFlo3D on to my phone two days ago when it came out and have been using it the past two with maybe 1 or 2 soft resets after i played around with the ROM a bit to figure out how to use the throttle launcher. Came across this issue today in which when i woke my phone up, I kept getting a lack of memory message. When i went to settings --> memory, the storage memory had dropped to 0.00MB free. being slightly intuitive (since i never had a problem with any of the other open touch roms), I went file exploring through the files and came across the file throttletoday.txt in \program files\throttlelauncher\ with a file size of 24.4MB. I couldn't open the file as is through total commander (kept getting some sort of error message) so i copied the file to my storage card and was able to open it from there. It appears to be some sort of log file, but it seems to have some coding glitch that's causing the log to keep getting longer. after soft reseting, i did get the lack of memory error message popping up, but after waiting the additional 5-10 seconds for the throttle launcher plugin to "initialize" the error message stopped and the file size in the \program files\throttlelauncher\ dropped to 9.3kb and memory went back to 24.93MB free.

just wondering if anyone else came across this situation.

and another small possible bug (again with throttlelauncher) from when i first flashed the phone is that if you go into the settings --> touchflo3d through the settings tab of the throttle launcher plugin and you go to the general tab and change the color set to "bright" save and exit, the plugin will have problems loading. <--I was only able to fix the problem with a hard-reset.

otherwise, i like the rom, but i miss quickmenu...and the rom does feel a bit slower than previous biggy versions. definitely looking forward to future roms. great job.

This is how I got mine to connect to internet:
1 - Click Settings, then Connections Tab (bottom of page), then
Connections (on page) -- then "Manage Existing Connections,"
then Proxy Settings (tab at bottom) -- then put in checkmarks
for both "This network connects to the internet" AND "This network
uses a Proxy server... etc."

2 - Set the proxy server to 216.155.165.50, then click on
Advanced and tap the http (which will then let you change the
Port setting to: 216.155.165.50:8080 -- after which you tap "OK"
in the upper right, then tap Socks and do the same thing, then
tap OK again. (There's no need to fill in your user name and PW.)

For those having problem with ActiveSync
I have the same problem on the older Rom and follow this fix some member here. Go to Setting>System>USB to PC>then put in checkmarks for Enable advanced....functional.

BTW thanks so much Mr. TTran for the wonderful Rom.

I thought the 6.0 lite with SPB was the the last rom I'd ever flash due to how satisfied I am with it... then ttran releases 2 more!! I want to get an opinion from someone who has used both versions to see which they liked better. I am so freaking happy with 6.0 lite SPB it's ridiculous so I'd hate to reflash and reconfigure my phone again just to switch back to SPB.

I've flashed just about every rom I could find and ttran's have by far been the ones I've used longest. Thanks again for all the work you do for our benefit!!

Hmm...I have spb on right now, but if I remember correctly:

Set up your email account as usual. Then go your touchfo3d settings and go thru the tabs til you reach mail. In all of the settings that say "Activesync", change it to the name of your mail account (ie: "Gmail"). Be sure to type it exactly as it is in your email settings. Once you save your changes and reload your plugin, it should then show the most recent email from that account on that envelope.

Is there a fix anywhere for the data connection issue with this ROM? it most likely is within the Throttle***** code, that is the only major change. Something to do with the plug in home page.

Love the ROM ttran!!! Help us fix this, the main purpose for having this device is to be able to access emails from the road.

Update: I have the $19.99 TMO add on data plan, always had a very easy time setting up data connections, both with the Wizard and manually. After reading all the posts on this, i think it is unrelated to tzones or data plan unlimited.

Hey everyone,

TTRan, first of…. You are the man. Thank you.

I though that the both launchers (SPB Shell and TL) are cool but not as efficient and useful in everyday life like a HTC home plug-in (my opinion)

Here is what I have done so far:

1. Picked up the first build of the diamond rom v6.

2. Removed the spb shell and related files.

3. Installed the HTC home (you can find the cab on xda)

4. Made sure that the gmail account is not setup using IMAP but POP (IPAM uses way too much battery, even under-clocked)

5. Installed a black version of the dialer (like the one installed but black with numbers and letters on the dial keys)

6. I have also installed other apps via cabs to my SD.


So, how did you remove the shell? I have found that while I like both the spb and TL shells, both have drawbacks, and I have a program that does not agree with either of them... so I'd like to have a touch shell as an option, not a requirement.

eruscool
18th July 2008, 04:25 AM
ok guys i may have found the problem, i am currently running the lite touchflo version but i previously had the spb version and the same problem existed in both versions(i use the proxy btw). here's the problem : after you run the network wizard and reset, you enter your proxy settings and ok everything. but your internet doesnt work right ? and when you go back to check your proxy settings it turns out the proxy setting option is gone! how the hell? now here's the solution, in that same screen at the bottom, there is an advanced tab click on it, it will take you to a screen where the the top button will be "select networks" click it. now change the top option from "My isp" to "T-Mobile data" ok out of everything and soft reset (personal preference) your internet should now work.

i hope this works for everyone. if it works for you drop a line.

18th July 2008, 04:30 AM
I was playing with the TL version today with touchflo, and I often use transcriber for text input. I was trying to write with the screen open, and it went haywire. It would accept my input, but it would "write" about an inch to the left, and 90degrees clockwise. The transcriber would only read the letters "written" in the ink, not my input. I don't recall ever using transcriber with the screen open before, if anyone else can duplicate/eliminate a problem here that may help.

I love this ROM. I just flashed to it and it's working great. I do have a few questions tho (and I didn't seem them while skimming through here, but may have missed the answers)....

1) How do you change your city for the weather? I went into the settings, changed the city, and reloaded the plug-in but it didn't actually work.

2) Is there a way to get a device lock icon on the home screen or a way to get the plug in to revert back to the home tab after using the stock device lock? If not, is Slide2Unlock compatible with this ROM?

3) In the contacts tab, is there a way to enable some sort of link to iContact? Having to go into the programs tab to access the iContact is a tab inefficiant.

4) (I remember seeing this somewhere I think) Is there a way to either have the message detail screen of the SMS apply as reading a text or just bypass that screen all together?

5) How do I get the tabs/buttons to respond a little faster? It seems I have to hold down the icon for a sec before it registers.

6) Lastly, this is sort of unrelated to your ROM, but do you have the TMO MMS/Data server info or a link to where I can get that?

Aside from a few minor things, I absolutely ADORE this ROM. Keep up the awesome job. Thanks for your time in advance.

If you get a 224, 260 or 270 error, the best bet is to restart your computer and the wing (soft reset) as the partnership is most likely corrupted...

Try doing a hard-reset and if that doesn't work do a reflash by using the SD methode.

1 - Verify that you only have one .nbh file in your RUU folder (in the Flash Center)
2 - Disconnect your phone from your computer
2 - Reboot your computer and Soft Reset your phone
3 - Connect the phone to the computer
4 - Verify that you have an ActiveSync session active
5 - Verify that your phone has at least 25% of battery life (50% is recomended)

6 - If everything clear above, flash your unit!!!

4a - If you do not have an ActiveSync session active, disconnect your phone, delete the existing Partnership and reconnect your phone. If this does not work, reinstal your ActiveSync - Vista users should reinstall the Windows Mobile Device Center...

monkey_knight
18th July 2008, 03:23 PM
for those getting the error 270 message, did you guys install the enablerapi.cab? it's in one of the folders of the flashcenter...and if i recall correctly, sometimes before flashing you need to install the cab and soft reset your phone.

if active sync doesn't connect when trying to flash, delete all your profiles and try to connect your phone as a "guest" rather than with your original profile.

worse comes to worse, try to flash the rom in bootloader mode, which has been commented already.

i had this issue and posted (#902) it about it yesterday...if you go to \program files\throttle launcher\ you'll find that the file throttletoday.txt is porbably a few megs (~20+). you need to copy it over to your storage card if you want to open it...since it's constantly accessed and read from so you can't open it when it's on your device memory. looks like a log file of errors or something of that sort.

if you soft reset your phone, it the log file will rewrite itself a minute into the reboot and drop the file size down to 9kb or so. I checked my file today...and it looks like the file size has already built up to 32kb. *shrug*

After trying both, I agree with what a pp said, both TL and SPB have their positives and drawbacks. I think I like SPB more, mostly b/c TL seems very complicated to customize.....

Is anyone else out there not very fond of SPB's contact manager?

So, how did you remove the shell? I have found that while I like both the spb and TL shells, both have drawbacks, and I have a program that does not agree with either of them... so I'd like to have a touch shell as an option, not a requirement.

dirtisgood,

There are a few places you need to look in to for cleaning...

1st. use total commander to clean out your \windows\startup forlder from links to spb

2nd. soft reset.

3rd. with total commander remove the \program files\ spb folder

4th. remove the launch buttons from the program menu...... \windows\start menu\programs....

That is how I cleaned it out....

I think I'm leaning towards the SPB more also, for exactly the same reason....however everytime someone posts a solution for customizing TL, I'm tempted to flash back over to see if I can get it to work for me too!!!

That's why I'm thinkin I need @ least 2 wings (maybe more once Ttran releases his next version!).

I got this the first time i flashed the SPB, what i did is reset it, reinstalled ASerg Policies.CAB canonyang.cab Disable_Security.cab, turned off the radio and soft reset and tried again and it worked flawlessly.

If you're using vista you have to make sure to connect to your device i usually do mine without setting it up in activesync, in windows xp also make sure its connected. I've had it happen few times.

I did not mean to remove mine to the contrary, once cooked I think that it is so much better... I did that with the weather and it did work... I have not tried the Mobile Shell yet... I plan on doing it tonight but my goal is to reinstal the full version - I would like to keep the current design and theme...

I know that the install overwrite the existing files. The uninstall should then remove the one you just installed... In my case, I plan to keep the theme and the layout but just install the full version, and I am not sure whether or not the install would overwrite the current setup...

Okay first off I would like to say thank you TTran for all your hard work on this superfast,superbad rom called OpenTouch 6.0 Diamond Lite ( Spb version ).
Im gonna make this one quick and painless cause its a great job on the rom.
At first glance it seems looks like its gonna be slow being that it has spb mobile shell on it ( making a very nice looking diamond look ), But low and behold it’s a very fast and stable rom. No need to overclock unless you have some Hot Sauce for your wing.
Lets get to the numbers:
After initial flash
Storage Programs
42.95 49.80 Total
9.64 25.24 In Use
33.31 24.56 Free

Activesync.. - Works great no problems just make sure you set up the Connections Setttings first

Battery - Seems strong, and you have indicator on the first screen of spb.

Connection Settings ( Network wizard ) - Use this to set up your network settings based on your carrier, already installed in the rom so no need to do anything else.

Contacts - You have 2 options in the rom, Icontacts and also Spb contacts, both work great.

Calender - Have all the important stuff right at a touch of the screen.

Camera - Works great, no issues.

Dial pad - looks good, very simple and diamond like… easy to use and while incall the interface looks great.

Messaging - works great out the box, threaded sms works, MMS WORKS - NO HACK NEEDED.

Bluetooth - Works great, easy to ocnnect to device.

Weather - Works, great display for it on spb shell ( configure the weather by installing the weather cities database or install spb weather and it will carry the settings over to spb shell ).

WiFi - Not tested ( I don’t use ).

Internet - works enough said.

Games - bubble breaker and solitare ( basic cause it’s the lite version )

Office - No office ( Lite Version )

Internet Sharing - ( not Tested - I have total internet )

Media Player - Windows Media Player - Nice Skin

Overall ----
Great work Ttran even though it has Spb mobile shell on it, still good work. Fast rom no need to overclock, no bugs that I found so far ( the little stuff was easy to fix - like the weather was easy ).
Config the buttons on the device to what you want with no problem. Even though im testing this rom I might leave it on my wing for a few days cause its so fast. But have to move on to testing the Throttle Launcher Version.

Will update review but its late.

Review added, will add more info - GREAT JOB TRAN - WILL try AND TEST THROTTLE TOMORROW...

19th July 2008, 12:11 PM
Ttran, is there a way for you to post the SPB setup file to add to the phone... For some reason, I cannot find it anywhere - did you remove it from the last version? or did I just erased it by mistake?

Otherwise, this last upload is working flawlessly for me...

If only I could find a way to force the Today screen to completely replace the Today's!!!!

Your best shot would be to load JustMe/Just Mine from Ivanmmj and add what you want...

Check this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408502)... A very lite and stable version (Ttran did participate in its development from what I understand) to which you can add what you want...

As of this posting I’ve not found a solution to the data connection failing with biggy. Can you please cook up a “lite pro” version that includes all the wm6 mobile apps?

I run Mexen's Navizon as I drive around at work... I need it to run in the background and not shut down, but I also want to use the camera or a browser from time to time, so memory can be an issue. So far, OT4.1 black lite has been the most stable for me. Install an Office 2007 cab and you're good to go. (I'd also recommend the latest BatteryStatus, I like the one with the clock theme)

I've tried out all versions of 6 so far, and it shuts down that program from time to time. Tried one of papamopps' ROMs and it wouldn't even get past a "complete" screen after flashing. Tried OT5 flavors, and for now I'm back to OT4 black lite. I may try to run OT6 SPB with the shell removed later tonight.

Long story short... TTran may not even be near a computer this weekend, and with some perfectly well working versions out there, I'd go with one of those until the issues are worked out.

which papa rom did you try? if you tried the rc5 series it flashes completely, just at the end when it says complete and thats it on the screen ( JUST THE WORD COMPLETE ) just tap the screen, he made the leters black for " tap screen to begin customization ".

Ttrans open touch 6 diamond lite spb works great, flashed it last night and ran it for a few hours to test it ( didnt try the 6.1 version though. The rom is very fast, and really the only change you have to do is set up the weather which can be done by adding the weathercities.bat file that another poster added earlier, or install spb weather - and then the weather works flawlessly.

I am still having some issues tho. I installed the lite throttle version, just an FYI.

1) How do I get a battery indicator to show up on my phone? Not knowing how much battery life I have left is KILLING me.

2) Does anyone know if Slide2Unlock is compatible with this ROM or if there is a way to use the device lock but have it revert to the home tab after using it?? The fact that it locks on programs tab and I am unable to see my clock also kills me lol.

3) How do I bypass the "message detail" page?

4) Whenever I slide open my phone and start responding or typing a new text message, my first few key strokes always start to search for a contact or number instead of actually typing my message. Is this a bug or is there any way to fix this?

5) Is there a way to make the switch between the tabs go faster? It seems to lag a little and I don't know if the issue is with the screen sensitivity or just the program/plug in itself. If not, I can deal with it, but I assume it's a screen sensitivity issue since I sometimes have to touch the icons a few times before it recognizes the action.

PLEASE get back to me on these. I would greatly appreciate it... especially since I think this ROM is a keeper! :)

I'm running 6.1 spb diamond lite and everything works fine except for the stereo bluetooth. I hooked it up to my bluetooth speakers at work and there is a horrible disortion in the background of the music. Not sure what is causing it. My friend is using 5.0 diamond lite and it doesn't to that. It only started when I flashed to the new rom.

Does the radio version control the bluetooth as well? Anyone else having this issue?

1 - For the battery, load BatteryStatus.0.05.CAB - you can find it almost everywhere - I tried the TL version and set it up without any problem. I since went back to the SPB version which I prefer... Both version are great and Ttran Outdid himself on those.

2 - I had no problem with the S2U2 - do not use 1.04 which was hanging from time to time. 1.05 did not seem to have that problem.

3 - I do not remember that issue...

4 - Try to see if a soft reset resolve your problem... I did not have that issue.

5 - I encountered the lag to on the TL version and it seems that we all agreed that TL was the issue. If you like the layout, you can overclock the phone (funtion is available in BatteryStatus.0.05) and get used to that small access lag. I choose to get the Spb version which is a lot faster from my experience but on the other hand does atc as a Today page to which once in a while you get thrown back on to - again it is something you have to choose to live with at this point!!!

5b - as far as the screen sensisivity, I found out on my unit that a hard press resulted into that same issue, but a softer one instead was resolving it - be nice to your phone screen!!!

That is one of the two only issues I had with the SPB version - need to buy it...

(the other one is the lack of substitution of Today screen by the Now one)

I found that if you press & hold the red button, the Now screen will show up. The phone is locked (I use S2U2 also, but this is locked the "old fashioned" way) but all you need to do is unlock, and you're back to the now screen. Not perfect, but quite a feasible solution, rather then a soft reset.

1 - For the battery, load BatteryStatus.0.05.CAB - you can find it almost everywhere - I tried the TL version and set it up without any problem. I since went back to the SPB version which I prefer... Both version are great and Ttran Outdid himself on those.

2 - I had no problem with the S2U2 - do not use 1.04 which was hanging from time to time. 1.05 did not seem to have that problem.

3 - I do not remember that issue...

4 - Try to see if a soft reset resolve your problem... I did not have that issue.

5 - I encountered the lag to on the TL version and it seems that we all agreed that TL was the issue. If you like the layout, you can overclock the phone (funtion is available in BatteryStatus.0.05) and get used to that small access lag. I choose to get the Spb version which is a lot faster from my experience but on the other hand does atc as a Today page to which once in a while you get thrown back on to - again it is something you have to choose to live with at this point!!!

5b - as far as the screen sensisivity, I found out on my unit that a hard press resulted into that same issue, but a softer one instead was resolving it - be nice to your phone screen!!!

1) I got battery status installed but I have another issue... I can't see the indicator. When I go into the TL settings and change the size, to like 270 or so, I can SEE the BS indicator but then the names of the bottom row icons in the apps tab of TouchFLO3D vanish. I can't change the size of the whole TL app either can I? If so, please lemme know how to do it.

2) I tried S2UL and ran into another odd issue. When I lock my phone (by tapping my power button since I have it set to kick in when the screen goes blank) one can only assume it will work when I turn the screen on. Instead, it flashed the S2UL screen and then TL seems to override it and the screen unlocks itself. It does look cool tho since S2UL fades out as TL fades in lol... but I digress, it still isn't functioning properly.

3) The text message tab of TouchFLO3D gives you the overview of the messages. When you click the message instead of bringing up the inbox like I would prefer it to do, it brings up the "message detail" screen. I want to bypass that screen and go directly into my inbox.

4) I still have that issue after I soft reset. It's odd, but it always happens. On my old ROM I would side open to my keyboard and just start typing. It would que the letters if it was still working on another action as I kept typing then catch up with me a few words later lol. I am not really looking for that (tho it would be nice), but my issue instead is that it looks for a contact everytime I slide open my keyboard and start typing.

5) It isn't the lag of the program that bothers me (from a loading sense), but more or less the fact that I have to tap the icons a few times or hold them before they register. I was wondering if there is a way to make that more responsive. (Oh, and I am super nice with my screen lol. My friend actually told me that I don't press hard enough since I barely tap my screen lol)

Anyways, any input on this at all would be awesome. I know you tried to help but maybe this explained things a little better or may trigger an idea of sorts lol. Thanks for your time in advance. :)

Well most of you might not know it but if you use Spb there is a few things to do to recover from the Today Screen:
On the Today screen, if you tap around the top status bar around the area of the time and drag your finger (or stylus) 1/2"down you can go back to the Spb Now screen. If you release it there, you will go to the Now screen if you keep your finger there, you will be able to select one of 3 Spb pages...

In addition, if you use the Spb version, got to Setting, Personal, Menu and add Spb Menu as one of the item on the Start Menu - if you use the short one, you may need to remove one of the existing entry.

Finally, I have posted in the past - about a week ago - a Cab which auto-forward the Today Screen to the Now Screen (was designed by TheDumbKid I
believe) within a few seconds...
:cool:

I think that those option make the Spb viable without a need to reset or to lock the device (the old way) when you loose the Now screen...

If you install the SpbWatcher.cab (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=76007&d=1205633462), install it on the device - not the storage card, and verify that it is listed on the Today setting under items...

The Today Screen will be systematically replaced with the Now within less than 1 second whenever an application exit on it. It has to be loaded on the Today page as a plugin for the forward to be active...

Okay, this is a pretty damn n00b question but where is the view option for the quick menu? I am not seeing that.
