It's an honour to see my work in such a great ROM, thanks for the thanks!!!

Great work as usual.

I am having problems with my data connection? It won't connect at all. Any suggestions? I am with Bell. Have the latest Radio. I also installed the CDMA weather fix as well.

Uninstall the weather fix,then install dcd_bell.cab http://dcd1182.n715dp.com/index.php?dir=Titan%2Fcarriers%2F
Run IE to make sure your data works now,then disable "windows default" and enable "touch flo",scroll to manila weather tab,set the city,run weather update,and after that you can install cdma_weather_fix

Thanks VIN,

I will try this when I get home. At work right now and will let you know how I made out.

[WarRaven]

Hey Vin, Just wanted to add, that i am trying your ROM too and i am quite pleased so far with it, no obvious bugs or hang ups.

Well done :)

Im using the no-Manilla version, love this 23081, wow.

Thank you for all your hard work, hope to see your ROMs around as things progress.

Peace

Edit, I think i replied to the wrong ROM thread, my bad.

[geomun]

hey VIN, just reflashed cause I screwed up my FAVE People in Titanium somehow. Decided to flash the manila/titanium new rom you just created. Flashed twice and hard reset once. Great job on incorporating RSS, Advanced Tools and the Snooze fix. Love it love it. You have a talent in the Kitchen! WM651 is awesome. New features are GROOVY. I am 42- I'm not too old to be fascinated with flashing am I? It is like a disease, a good ailment though!!

[bigboy292000]

While I love this ROM, I have had multiple lock-ups where I had to soft reset the phone. I did install the Mega GSM dialer, I'll try to remove that and see if that helps?

Anyone else installed a different dialer?

[geomun]

I have installed the dialer from PDG (PAUL DEGROOT (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429179))with no issues noticed.

Well, I hate to be a party pooper but:

I did a hard reset with this ROM installed and after that, my phone can not be programmed (*228) and Internet does not work no matter what I do. I even flashed NFSFAN's 1.0 ROM again and my phone is still messed up in the same way.

I'll have to call Customer Service to see if they can help me get it back on the network.

I have another Vogue that is still on NFSFAN's ROM and I can register that one just fine and it works as expected so dunno what happened here...

One thing that I just noticed: even after I flashed using the NFSFAN's ROM, the phone startup graphics is still the "HTC" one as opposed to Verizon one. It appears like the ROM overwrites more than some otehr roms do. I'll flash back to stock Verizon ROM and see what happens, I think my radio is now screwed up somehow.

Before you spend too much time on hold, read this thread:

Verizon has issues with phone programming today apparently.

I re-flashed the phone back to latest stock ROM, soft-reset before customizations and then flashed NFSFAN's 1.0 again. I am unable to run programming on any of my phones so it is possible that all this was just a coincidence and has to do with VZW issues only... :S

Man, you got me sad when I read your post saying it killed your Vogue....

Hi all,

Is anyone having issues with the alarm? I flashed last nite to this rom and I had no alarm this morning. I checked everything: all days are selected, phone was not on vibrate or silent, ring tone was selected and so on.

The only thing I installed after flashing was Marketplace.

I have another question regarding the HTC menu: Is there a way (registry setting( to disable HTC menu which overrides the default windows menu?

Thanks,
Apurv

Yes, it didnt go off when it was charging this morning. So I tested it sometime back and it did work (on batteries). Weird.

@least you know now right?!

[bigboy292000]

Well - after confirming that Verizon's system works (by programming my wife's Imagio) - I confirm that something got screwed up in my phone to the degree that I can not either run *228 (and honestly I don't understand that other thread on how to fix that:() but also - I can not get Internet to work no matter what I do. Importing provisioning XML for NFSFAN's MMS fix, creating connection manually etc - nothing seems to work. I just get "invalid username or password".

So something is funky with this ROM, I can't figure what it is. But right now - I dunno how to solve it, luckly I have my wife's old Vogue but eh... too much pain...

A few days ago my data password keep deleting itself or something to that effect, because at random it would ask me to re-enter the password("vzw" in my case). So after trying unsuccessfully to get the password to save and stick, I decided to reflash. Well after doing that I was no longer able to make phone calls.

Long story short, after many flashes and installs of various carrier cab's along with several calls to Verizon tech support.....I figured out my phone number had been altered in the MSID.

Solution:

##778 or Start > Utilities > Phone codes > PST > Select "edit" (or select "view" and check the numbers against what I have written below ↓, that way you don't edit something wrong)

The heading of the page should be "Display"
Change/verify MSID=XXXXXXXXXX(your 10-digit number with area code)

Then navigate to:

View Info > NAM Settings

The heading of the page should be "NAM Settings"
Change/verify Mobile Directory Number=XXXXXXXXXX(your 10-digit number with area code)
Change/verify MIN1=XXXXXXX(your 7-digit number)
Change/verify MIN2=XXX(your area code)
**NOTE**-->Make sure your number shows up in the various fields after that(although it may be broken up or have extra numbers added to it). If you are having the same problem as me you'll notice your MSID is not your phone number(in my case it was 000-000-0759).

Then navigate to:

View Info > M.IP Default Profile

The heading of the page should be "M.IP Default Profile"
Change/verify NAI=XXXXXXXXXX@vzw3g.com

Be careful not to edit anything else. Also if you notice that your MSID really is your phone number then stop right there because you probably have a different problem.

Again I don't claim to know this is your problem but it sounds similar, so you can at least verify your settings are correct by following my instructions.

Well, this does seem to be my problem :) but when I go aheadand press EDIT, I get asked for the unlock code which I dunno. :(

What was it for you?

EDIT: Following this... http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=17667

EDIT 2: The above did not work; it spits out 6 digit number but no joy, still can't edit settings... hmmm

EDIT 3: I am in... use 000000 as per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423231&page=7

EDIT 4: Yup, this was it... I am still not able to make *228 1 work, but *228 2 did work and I am just not going to worry about it now.

THANK YOU!

I wish I know what happened!

Um, I flashed this ROM after using NagRom 3.10.

It is extremely unstable.

Programs take forever to open, some don't even work, like Contacts.

Overall I'm having tons of problems.

[bigboy292000]

Well, my phone is back (with this ROM) but I am again having lockups. Like I come, press power to wake the phone up, and the only thing I get is the top bar (clock, battery, internet etc). The rest of the screen is just black. After that happens - I need to soft reset.

I turned off Manila now and will try running with Titanium and see if that makes a difference. If not - I'll switch the lock screen ordering to default (slider on top) and see, before giving up.

[incubus26jc]

hey vin are you working to release 23504? I noticed nagrom released his but i like all the tweaks and eye candy you put in your roms. so im sitting here wanting to flash his rom but dont wanna if your gonna release soon. what file is it that modifies the start menu icon?

23504 will be ready this weekends.Attached package with default icons

I had no lockups since. There is a visual issue with some pin keyboard buttons being "pressed" but no lockups is more important.

[geomun]

not that I play this game much, but in 23504 bubble breaker generates the following error: "SHCreateMenuBar Failed" Cannot open Bubble Breaker resource file!"

Everything thing else seems to work, graphically pleasing and as fast as Nagrom's version. I guess all 23504 versions will be speedy. PIM Backup is nice in Vin's roms. Nagrom doesn't include it. Makes restoring calendar and contacts a lot faster than resynchronization with outlook. Another thing in Nagrom's version was that a new text message could not be created from touchflow. It did work fine from titanium. Vin's works in both places. Default keyboard is NICE. Once again Vin, good job in the kitchen.

[slow88lx]

A reoccurring bug in the last few builds:

When setting up the Bluetooth Share folder you get the tree view of folders, but you can never select any of them. Or rather you can select one, but you cannot finish the selection because the "ok" button does nothing. The only way to leave the screen is to hit the end key. Even then you cannot access the bluetooth settings again until you soft reset.

I used to set up the bluetooth share to point at a folder on my memory card. On these last few builds I have had to use the default folder in My Documents, since no change can be made. Anyone have a solution?

If it's not at 50 percent, you can put the phone into bootloader (power + camera + stylus reset). It will bypass the battery check.

Hi Vin - love the ROM. I have 2 things for you; first, your default theme (diamond I think) looks great, but if you try another theme you can't go back to your default as it is not listed. This was as your update 2 versions ago. Perhaps it is a non issue now. Second, your Sprint_Carrier_20081020 attached you also link to a bunch of carrier files and there is a newer version 20090109. Can I use either with this ROM?

thanks

I am sure you can.

A reoccurring bug in the last few builds:

When setting up the Bluetooth Share folder you get the tree view of folders, but you can never select any of them. Or rather you can select one, but you cannot finish the selection because the "ok" button does nothing. The only way to leave the screen is to hit the end key. Even then you cannot access the bluetooth settings again until you soft reset.

I used to set up the bluetooth share to point at a folder on my memory card. On these last few builds I have had to use the default folder in My Documents, since no change can be made. Anyone have a solution?
Any ideas vin??


This 23504 build is amazing. It's like the processor was overclocked or something, it is honestly faster doing everything. Makes me wonder why MS was giving us those slow builds if they could have done this all along. Either way I'm happy they did, this is best ROM I have flashed yet!

[incubus26jc]

hey vin, can i make a sprite backup of 23504 and flash v2 and do a restore?

I fixed lockscreen issue (tested for 12 hours) with variable power settings by recmodding lockscreen.dll.uploading 23504.v2.Also tested alarm when locked,unlocked,charging,usb disconnected,everything works including bubblebreaker

Hey cool! :)

[jadesdan]

Can anyone recommend a good task switcher/manager that is compatible with this rom? Thanks.

[incubus26jc]

showcase is what i use. you just click on your clock to get the tast list and switch or close

[geomun]

Vin, version 2 is now officially the best. Not only did you fix BB, the locker (never personally saw an issue with it), you also fixed the issue where if a program needed a directory selected(ie sd card), you can now select it via the Ok button.

slow88lx on post 57 stated the same issue. Groovy Baby!

[vin255764]

tip:I mapped taskmanager.exe to camera press and hold button...(couldnt find exit from total commaned and phm regedit)now I can close them via camera button.

incubus,let me know when its ready,I can make a cab

I am digging this one very much - nice job. I did nice that when using the titanium interface the mini email icon is a red circle/white X. When you focus in the larger icon is fine, but the smaller one is missing. Is there a way for me to replace that?

[jadesdan]

showcase is what i use. you just click on your clock to get the tast list and switch or close

I'm using ShowcaseSuite 1.1.0 but it seems to lock up quite frequently with this rom. also, when I click the clock, i get the standard windows setting bar.

[incubus26jc]

the clock in the taskbar. sorry for not specifiying. i think i use showcase 1.0
EDIT: 1.0.1b

[neuteboomt]

I have noticed that I have to click reply twice for emails and/or text to be able to send that email or text. This does not happen all the time but is sporadic. I will click to reply to an email and it will allow me to type my message but the send button is not there. Instead there is the reply to all. If I click the reply to all buttons I can retype my message and the send button is there. Now I am running this rom utilizing Titanium and I have installed office. I think it is the office cab that is messing things up because this issue has happened in 6.5.1 roms I have loaded in the past.

[ski21]

Yes vin your v2 is awesome. So far been tethering for about 2hours and not getting bumped. Way to go on a great rom. I appreciate your work, just when I think you do your best you one up yourself, way to go.

Is there a way to restore the original Manilla theme and icons for this ROM?

Is there a way to restore the original Manilla theme and icons for this ROM?

there is an orginal restore cab floating around somewhere. if i wasnt at work i would upload it. you should be able to find it on the whitealien touchflo 2d 2.0thread.

[codf4ther]

For those of you using ShowcaseSuite, are you running it with Manilla? When I install ShowcaseSuite Manilla won't launch, and the start-menu doesn't work either so I end up having to hard-reset.

Hey, Vin -

Kudos on this lates ROM - pretty much works right out of the box, and so far really stable - this is the first non NFSFAN rom I've tried that is totally polished and has a feature-set that makes it completely user friendly - only thing missing for me was Mobile Office, which I found in CAB version with some looking -

The one issue I'm having is with Bluetooth PAN - keep getting a error message when I try to connect - I get an Activesync connection without problem - don't want to keep mentioning other ROMS, but the BT PAN feature on NFSFAN rom's work with no tweaking, so I don't really know what, if anything, I can change or adjust to make this work -

Any input would be appreciated - again, awesome, awesome job - I'm almost embarrassed to have any issues - thanks again for your hard work - it really shows on this one-

[Barogi44]

Just installed this rom last night (replacing NFSFAN's). I like it :D, thanks Vin!

However, I do seem to be having a problem with the lock screen. With a lockscreen enabled (I used 30 min), twice this morning I tried to go back to my Vogue only to find the only thing on the screen was the top status bar (rest of the sceen blank) and I could not find a magic key sequence to bring it back (other than soft reset ;)). I turned off the lock screen and have had no problem ever since.

Things I miss, and will have to go hunting for:
- MS Voice Command (which version works well with this rom?)
- Office Mobile

-GT

[codf4ther]

#1) The lock screen still hangs the phone when called by holding down the end button. Changing the end button to ask what to do seems to work around it (even if you select lock device).

#2) At some point today I lost the ability for the phone to power down the lcd after a period of inactivity. I've set it up under the power options, but it wouldn't do anything (soft reset seems to have fixed this)...

On the lock screen:

Indeed, I am also syncing with Exchange and have a mandatory PIN policy. Yesterday morning, I installed the 2nd of two fixes I referred to few pages ago and - no lockups since.

It's weird. Intalled fix 1 alone - still locked up. Only after fixes 1 and 2 it works fine.

I was upgrading a friend's phone to vin version 2. He has a data plan. Data (ie weather, internet) works fine. Regular text messages work fine. What doesn't work are MMS messages. He gets a MMS message delivery failed error.

He called VZW, they wanted to do a *228 option 1 which failed. They said everything looked fine in their end.

Has anyone seen this? Does anyone know to resolve it? Does it involve A keys and the phone codes?

thanks

[geomun]

[incubus26jc]

first you will need to create a data connection using #777 and your phone number (###-###-####@vzw3g.com with vzw as password)if you havent already done so. Then you need to install the attached arcsoft cab. then reboot. then go to your text messaging icon in the start menu and click on options and go to mms options. click servers, then verizon wireless, connect via the internet. reboot again. you should be good after that.
If it still dont work then you need to go to the registry and go to HTLM\software\arcsoft\arcsoft mms ua\config\mml\wspheader\x-vzw-mdn and put in your phone number with areacode. reboot after a few min

[geomun]

Has anyone gotten Bluetooth internet sharing to work? If so, did you do anything special settings-wise, or did it work right away?

[geomun]

THAT DID IT!! Needed to choose INTERNET at the verizon option tab instead of leaving it at the default(vzw). He is happy now!! It did change threaded SMS back to the folder view even though in the advanced config it shows SMS threaded as the default. That might be normal. Thanks incubus.

All I did is a cut 26px from top and buttom so 6.5 users can use that theme too.
The problem with the wallpapers is that 6.5 wants them to be 240x320 and Manila wants them 240x268.
You did alignment for Manila home tab wallpaper and Startmenu wallpaper.But its making an offset for all other manila tabs.
I did alignment for all Manila tabs,but its making an offset for start menu backgrownd.
There are 2 options to solve it:
1)Proper way is to make 6.5 .tsk theme like Ron Arad,Vera Wang, DWF did.That tool is not released.
EDIT:we can use existing 6.5 themes and edit them with win ce cab manager
2)Cheating-to make top and buttom parts of the wallpapers with the same flat colours
3)To use 6.1 tsk generator.This will work,but its going to affect some other grafics.


I will post screenshots once I make a tsk for Nature theme

I did find out that im not skilled enough to be making themes just yet, i need to learn more about the files and what does what. but i will try not to ask for much more help with my next theme. i understand the mistakes i made with using the wrong theme files and chopping the image. Thanks again

I've been running this ROM for a few days - runs great!

I have a problem though - I liked it so much I put it on my girl's Vogue, but I forgot she has a broken power button!

Somewhere in 6.5.1 I think MS must have removed the Settings>System>Key Lock option for when the device goes to sleep- That was the workaround she was using, she'd just let her phone sleep, then hit any hardware button to fire it back up.

The registry key that used to be there under HKCU>Control Panel>Keybd is missing, so I don't even think I can do a registry hack.

Anyone have any ideas?

I'd love to just remap the buttons.

Thanks!

You can use RonAradcolouredIcons.cab-it was a donor for Nature.tsk.
For taskbar and some softkeybar icons- you can extract icons from any nice looking dll and put it into 6.5.1 shellres.96.dll with reshack.exe (freeware)
Attaching originad shellres and all necessary tools.
1-unsign with unsigner (drag and drop)
2-edit with reshack (move the dll into reshack folder first)
3-sign with signer (run exe and brows for dll)
Thanks to Gadgetfreak over at ppcgeeks for teaching me an sharing the tools

Note: custom crispy shiny coloured taskbar icons may reduce the battery life.

I think you can wake up device with any hardkey by changing 1 to zero in [HKLM]/hardware/oem/keyb/keylock decimal 0

Was anyone able to install the Marketplace update from MS? From few days ago?

I fire up the original client. It downloads the update. Then it fails to remove the previous version and then - it deletes the updated cab. I let the phone sit at the prompt if I wanted to remove the old version of marketplace, but I cant seem to find the temp location of the new cab. I'd like to try installing it manually.

I've been a user of NFSFAN's rom and love it but would like to try out this rom to see all the fuss about the new build.

Was wondering if I would still be able to thether and not be billed for data (i.e. my provider sees it as mobile data not thethered)

Thanks

Reflash and dont touch anything. :) Mine took like 5 minutes to load the first time. Just let it sit. The screen might even go black but just wait till it peeps which means it's booting up. Also, did you unlock with coke 2.31???

[gord888]

Wow... truly an amazing rom! I was using the NFS Fan v1.00 but this one is fast and stable. It takes some time to get used to it, but it is very nice. thanks vin!


fyi, for people having issues with bluetooth PBAP, get jetware mobile 1.4. it's open source now so it's free. it fixed the problem i had interfacing to my bluetooth car kit. http://bthfx.codeplex.com/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=26480

23506 is a better rom. It fixes a few issues that I have seen on the 23504 and earlier.

Will test it out more to see if it is a keeper or go back to T2.2 version.

Is Java loaded on the ROM? If not, can someone direct me to the correct version of Java. Thanks.

Heh Vin:
I noticed that you have been using an older version of Opera 9.5 on your rom. Any reason why not the newer 9.5 or the 9.7?

Thanks

Thanks9.7 is no good without the zoom bar, IMO.

[vin255764]

Yeah,zoom bar is a major reason

[slow88lx]

I haven't ever tired to make it work, but the only worthy upgrade to me for Opera would be a version that can utilize the "Opera Flash Fix" and still had the zoom bar. The would be nice to have a cooked in version of Opera w/ flash(assuming that fix works, since I haven't ever tried it).

Vin you are the man! V2 upload is sweet. Loving the new background and is running stable. I am glad that at least you are believing in the Vogue. NSFSAN has forgot about it. Keep up the good work. I will be recommending to other people. Do you have a site for donations?

[codf4ther]

#1) Lay off NFSFAN guys, we wouldn't be where we are with Vogue hacking without the high standards he sets for everyone. I don't think he's forgotten the Vogue at all, its just that his focus is on stability, not the latest and greatest.

#2) I can confirm that exchange is working on 506_v2. What were the Outlook "enhancements" that you removed?

#3) I'm assuming that with usb to pc popup removed it will default to Active Sync and we just need to run Connection Sharing manually?

#4) Good call on changing the startup sound and animation, looks much more professional now...

Thanks for all your work on this rom vin, its great that you're enabling us to use these latest builds from MS

When I try to set up Titanium Weather, it gives me the following error:

"An error occurred on sub_main_exitaction.

The title bar says Basic4ppc and it gives me an option of yes or no. If I hit yes, it stays in the setup screen. If I hit no, it exits out of the setup screen without setting it up. I tried running Mortscript thinking this might help, but it didn't. How can I fix this?

I've also had the problem as mentioned above with the weather. Also I'm asking again if anyone else is having a problem with SD card installs. After a shutdown/reboot the program installed to SD card no longer runs, and I get a certificate error. Using 23504 v2. rom

I followed another poster's advice and set my camera button to bring up task manager. If I press it, the camera comes up. When I hold it down it brings up task manager. It really doesn't take any longer than using the quick menu and you don't have to install another 3rd party software.

Every single program installed to SD card. They work fine right after install, but a reset or shutdown makes them effectively go away; they don't load, run and their icons are changed to default icon.

That's very strange. If you want to upload a cab, I'll try it out on my card and let you know the results after a soft reset.

Or if you have another SD card you could try that. Even if it's not big enough for your everyday use, you could at least see if apps install OK on it.

Yes, as stated a couple of post above, I'm using version 6.5 of Sprite and can backup with no problem. I copied the cab to a temp dir on the card and installed to the card. Make sure your backup is going to the card and not the phone memory. There may not be enough room for a backup file on the phone itself. I usually backup the entire phone's main storage.

Thanks Tempests. I have tried versions 6.5.5 and 6.5.4 but neither work for me. I had installed 6.5.5 and used it to backup my phone before flashing to this ROM, and all went well.

So I'm not sure what the problem is, but the backup feature in SKTools works for me, so I may just use that instead.

I have a 2 GB one I use for re-flashing; will give that a whirl. it MIGHT be the size of the everyday card (8 GB) that is the problem. I've run several disk check utilities on it and it's fine. So far (Skyfire, Pocket Uno, Bing, Google Maps) are among the cabs I've tried to install to SD.

For what it's worth, I am using a Transcend 8 GB card and have Skyfire installed on it.

Don't know if this will help, but I have a small card (512 meg) that I used successfully for installing Vin's cabs during the flash. I used it recently to upgrade my radio. The radio file was not recognized and I could not get the update to run. Just for the heck of it I reformatted the card with an external card reader (instead of my laptop's internal reader that I had originally used to format the card). Then I was able to do the radio upgrade. So while the card seemed fine, I guess something wasn't quite right and prevented me from performing the radio upgrade.

Custom weather cities worked for me in v1, however, they are not working for me in v2. What could I be doing wrong?

I flash the rom twice from the flash card. After booting I start touchflo, install total commander, reboot, then copy my hh_weather file into the windows directory. I then go to weather on the touchflo menu and select one of my custom cities. Then I get an error that says, unable to retrieve data for selected city; no weather data available.

Is this a case of "operator error"?

The format of the card seems to be the issue. After re-formatting the 8 GB card in the laptop, I could no longer install to the card at all. I'm presently re-formatting the card in the Phone to see if that cures the problems. If not my next step is the re-format the card in an external reader. If that fails, I will re-format in Linux and test the results. Kinda of strange that there is something in the format that was missed by several disk checkers.

Update: the problem was solved by formatting in the Phone. Programs now install and run from the SD card after reboot/shutdown. Several disk checkers didn't find the problem, so try formatting in several different devices to fix if you have problems installing to the SD Card. Also, it appears that the card may corrupt over time, so check the card every so often to insure file integrity.

The Widget Engine is already installed in Vin's Roms!!!!

Inside the \windows folder there is a programs named wmwidgetinstaller that program is the widget install program. You can simply copy the widgets from the PPCGeeks post, click on one. You will have to associate .wgt files with this program. Once you do this, you can install any widgets you like!!!!

I just tried it and it works just fine. YOu only need the widgets from the posts below with Vin's Roms!!!!! no cabs necessary.

I found 2 posts for installing widgets. The first one is from PPCGeeks and the next is from XDA ... i plan on testing them today, even tough both seem to have gotten plenty of success.

http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.p...20&postcount=7 (includes original MS widgets)

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...23&postcount=1 (contains cab for installing widget engine in roms that has the widget engine has not been baked in)

Enjoy!!!!

The latest build stopped syncing with my exchange server.
Do you know if it worked in my previous 23506 or 23504_v2 ROMs

I will add Office and update Total commander when next sys comes out

Hey Vin, great work dude.:)


Let me ask you a question though, does Total Commander fit correctly on your screen?

It mostly does except the bottom tool bar, one is partially hidden by the other on my units.

Any ideas?
