[ROM][WWE]Chrome ROMs & User Submitted |User-to-User Guide| Sense 2.1,2.5 or Titanium

UPDATE: 2-19-10
Newer User submitted ROMs now available. Thanks to madnish30 for updating some items and working hard to update the ROM. Here is a link to his sense 2.1 post, which hopefully he will keep updated. And here is his Sense 2.5 version. I think I will let this thread go to user submitted ROMs for now. Then you can get the Chrome ROM feel but in different flavors. Remember to keep kitchen questions to the kitchen thread. Good luck guys, and God bless. I may return at some point, but I just dont have the motivation right now and am spending all my time trying to salvage my marriage.

Check post 2 for links to User Submitted ROMs, but always read the thread to find the latest updates.

UPDATE: 1-11-10
I didnt make a lot of changes in the ROM, most changes are on my end with the kitchen. It is a newer build which has a new feature, Threaded email. I havent used it personally, but hear good things.

Chrome 23518 Titanium

Chrome 23518 Sense 2.1

Chrome 23518 Sense 2.5


Change log from previous ROMs located in posts below. Make sure to have a look to see what has changed since 21232.


THIS IS FOR GSM MODELS ONLY


Before I give you the rundown, just gotta say thanks to everyone here and at SkinZone.org for making this possible. Special thanks to hilaireg, Da_G, At0mang, NATF, NRG, Holdemdogg, Volt, bilbobrian, Giannis86, all various developers, and everyone I missed.



I will not be held responsible for any Damage in any form for any cause
If you have a complaint make a suggestion or do it yourself

Download Section:

23016.6 Manila 2.5(Sense) BETA

23016.6 No HTC MSG

Chrome 23016.6 NewMix LEO

Chrome 23502


SEE BELOW FOR ALL OTHER VERSIONS

If you enjoy the ROM and want to help keep skinzone online consider posting or donating at www.SkinZone.org

ROM Mirror Site Provided by llamalord :) Poke around all you want ;)

Please check the version you downloaded. My FTP has been having issues. I am workin on it. You can always visit the link below and Download the correct version. This is the best way, as you know what you are getting.
Download older versions here.
LEAVE FEEDBACK so I can perfect this.
Also, Please note: My ROMs do not include a custom splash screen. There are 2 available to match the ROM available apon request.

Now the lowdown:
See post 2 for full list of Packages\Apps (OLD). Following is a list of Chrome custom addons:
-Added shortcut for switching between HTC Dialer and MS one.
-Added custom program and folder icons to nearly every program. Added "My Apps" folder for your installed programs and more organization. I like to keep the start menu clean and beautiful.
-Included a custom taskbar by bilbobrian and modified by me to be a bit lighter ;)
-UPX Compressed most of the exe files to save space and speed up loading times ;)

STATS:
290MB of 320MB Free Storage after customization(can anyone provide this? I have a lot installed through UC, so my numbers are way off)
120MB of 193MBFree RAM at first boot

This ROM comes equipped with a lot of extras and is by no means a "Light" ROM. It is quite fast, and still has plenty of space for anything you want to add(if there is anything to add ;) ) I might consider a light ROM later, but for now I wanted to have a Cadillac of ROMs. Everything is included if I need it, if not, it wont hurt anything. I have included several Titanium plugins for people using Titanium instead of TF3D (Certain versions). I might also make a TF3D version which would remove Titanium for us manila users to have more free storage.
Suggestions are welcomed, but not necessary meaning it will be included/excluded.

Bugs and Fixes(This ROM is a work in progress. Rome wasn't built in a day)



-Some updated system files for build 23053. Missed these before build went online. This will make taskbar dropdown list work. I never used it during testing, so missed it :( Just overwrite the files in Windows folder.

Addons for Chrome 6.5

- Manila TV for GenY Manila 2.1

-The newest version of MyPhone is attatched here :)

-Prefer Manila's SMS interface? SMS tab is set to open MS threaded messaging by default in this ROM. Install the attatched cab to revert.

-To make SIP menu work fully install PatchedBiotouch.dll. Note that this may cause some scrolling issues, but none that I notice personally.

-If you prefer "Home" hardware button to go home instead of opening start menu, install Chrome Keypad_Old_Home.cab. Also attatched a cab ro make Home open start menu(revert)

-If you prefer the old fuzzy circle in start menu, here it is. Extract and copy into windows folder, overwriting the original.

Changelogs: Full List

Changelog for previous versions. Most changes are carried over to new versions, so reading this can give you a better idea of where the ROM has been and where it is going.

Code:
[B]UPDATE 12-4-09[/B]
Here is a variety of ROMs to fit all your needs :D
First there are COM2 ROMs from build 21882. These have older UI style(which is what the now official 6.5 uses)
Not so many changes here, just an update. I did however change some files to modules to have them load from virtual memory rather than RAM, and compressed many image files(for space and faster loading)

Next is the COM8 builds(with lage bottom bar and start menu on bottom left)
There are some small changes across all builds mostly with dialers:
Manila 2.5 build uses newly ported LEO dialer which works hand in hand with manila 2.5. There is a small graphic glitch in this dialer noticable when keypad is shown(in SIP menu area)
Manila 2.1 and Titanium use Rhodium dialer, which should work better with Manila 2.1 and Titanium. 
I have updated some applications in the 28008 builds including CleanRAM, BING(a new beta)
The titanium build also uses new Opera 10 beta2.
Sure there are more changes, but none I can recall off hand :p

[B]All links are found[/B] [URL="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5080579#post5080579"][SIZE="3"]HERE[/SIZE][/URL]

UPDATE: 11-13-09
(from my original post)
All ROMs are uploading and I am spent. No more updates for a while. It was very difficult to pull all of it together because my kitchen has now tripled in size and it takes at least 330 minutes just to scroll through and make all the right selections. Then flash each one, test a bit, reflash, test, etc. I wont be around for a while, but dont let that stoip you from donating :p 
Enjoy:

There are a lot of changes, but each ROM has its own qualities and changes. M2.5 of course has updated Manila 2.5 files and LEO packages that correspond to it. All HTC software upgraded to latest 1920 versions from LEO with exception of NewContactCard which is still 1919 build. Removed extra Titanium plugins(if your not using Manila I recomend another ROM anyway)
M2.1 has some minor changes, mostly theme from previous COM5 build. Re-Compressed all images for space
Titanium has all Manila items and dependencies removed. Slightly different MenuEnhancements because latest ones wont work without Manila enabled. They are yet untested.

-Manila 2.1
-Some issues with programs that call on Pocket Outlook :(
-This build is simply for those that want to see what direction M$ is going with 6.5.1. It is usable, but expect some incompatabilities with certain software. Some programs will require using back button to exit since they moved X button to bottom bar and some software does not support this. 
-Expect more scrollbars where you didnt have them before because of the enlarged Toolbar. 
-Volume hardware buttons are not working correctly at this time :( Seems they open the new Taskbar helper instead(can also access by touching clock). 
-New magnifier is disabled by default, find a script in Settings>Admin Tools to change it.

-Opera build 16983(Compressed)
-LOTS more. Check posts later in the thread.

This is great, Love the work you put into this, the new builds (21232 V2 DA-G's) are much smoother and would be perfect with your build. Thanks:D

Looks pretty good. After you get a few nibbles and I hear good things I'll give it a shot.

I can say one bad thing right now. Not too bad, the audiomanager found in multimedia has the slider misplaced. I had it working before, but I think I must have changed something because it either gets messed up from MP3 Trimmer or the fix would be having AudioManager with everything in place and MP3 Trimmer with some things mixed up. Working on it right now. Other than that, we'll have to see. I'd like to have both, but might have to remove one or the other. The audiomanager has an MP3 Trimmer built in, which is part of the problem. Being that it is a beta build, I am not too worried about it. I'll get it fixed up soon.
EDIT: I have an odd fix for it right now, but I'm gonna narrow it down and make it easy for ya ;)
EDIT2: Duh, the problem was on my end in a plugin I had installed during sashimi. No wonder it worked before, I added the problem myself later. So, please report any real bugs not related to addons.

I noticed you didn't mention the keyboard...
The mapping in the 20771 didn't work out for me... I messed around with it for a while and didn't end up fixing it... I ended up having to flash 2 or 3 times... (Finally back to stock, and then on to something else.) to get it to work right again... Except for that..I really enjoyed the rom...
Damn... it sure does look sexy...

This has just stock input method. No TP2. Don't need more to worry about.
Thats strange about the 20771 mapping. It was working fine for me in a few builds. Only time it was off was if I had enabled XT9, but still wasn't too bad. Maybe you have touch pro instead of Fuze? And you are talking about one of the hybrid builds right? Maybe I'll go back and make one with the standard keybooard.
If anyone having trouble downloading, I am having problems getting onto skinzone for some reason, so I don't know what is up. Let me know if its working right.

Bugs and Fixes
I found this after installing Audiomanager Titanium plugin. I think it is due to that, but thought I would post it here. Appears the plugin installer includes an AudioManager.exe file which was different than the one I cooked in. So, this most likely will not be needed.
An odd bug due to the adition of a standalone AudioManager and MP3 Trimmer. The graphics are a butSince it is an odd bug, here is an odd fix. You need to install the attatched Glossy_VGA_AudioManager cab, soft rest, then uninstall the cab. I have no idea why this would fix anything, but it does work. In process of looking furher into this. Make sure to install to device of course.

Thanks....
I've been trying & requesting an .exe or version of Audio Manager that will work outside of TF3D/TF3D2 for a while now. I don't like WMPlayer and I use CorePlayer for my .avi but it sucks as a finger frienldy music player. This also comes in handy when using SPB-MS3.

A custom "Programs" folder under the "Start Menu" would be nice to control clutter and add organization for installed programs.

Haven't flashed yet cuz I'm still luv'n your 6.1 Chrome w/Notification.

Thanks again

Nice looking and fast ROM! Thank you!

Couple of things I found:

- Launching Internet Explorer gives error message "The file :MSPIE cannot be opened...." and the phone freezes.

- Opera shows only blank page.

Looks great, unfortunately launching AS gives an error message about "MSSYNCAPP" file not being signed and incomplete and it freezes. Also, just found out that when receiving and incoming call the S2A does not work.

Yes, there is some sort of bug with all of the "short"
shortcuts seem to have something wrong. All of the registry entries are intact and the actual exe files open fine, so I'm looking into this tonight hopefully. As a temporary workaround, you could change the properties of the shortcut to point to the actual exe file. For Internet Explorer simply change from :MSPIE to
Code:
"\windows\iexplore.exe"
Leaving the part following the command from the "?" will ensure you can keep the same icon.
About the Opera, not quite sure what you mean by "shows only blank page". I mean it is literally blank page? Is the Opera skin there? Or does the page start to load and then stops. I have experienced the last before, but I think it is something in Opera or poor connection as a simple reload of the page will then show the page. If you are having trouble with connections, try the enable/disable proxy shortcuts in "Tweaks\Proxy\" folder.

Your problem is also related to the problem noted above. I will have a fix hopefully tonight.
As for the S2A, it is and has been working fine for me. Make sure you didn't use the PhoneSkin shortcut in phone folder. This is meant to toggle between the S2A dialer and the default MS one. This due to HTC/MS bug in dialer scrolling. Some people prefer MS dialer, so I made a simple script to switch on the fly. I have an updated script with more options which I will include in the fix for shortcuts. Try switchiong back and forth to make sure you have S2A enabled.

Hi jmckeejr, liking the ROM so far but I am also having the problem with the shortcuts for items such as activsync and IE. How do I change the shortcuts so this can give me access to them. Thanks. Also, any way to get the g-sensor to work when viewing pictures?

Just finished up a fix. See cab attatched to post 3. As for the G-Sensor thing, why not just use the included G-Config app? It will add the appropriate registry settings for any app you want to auto-rotate. I have disabled it by default in AudioManager because it takes twice as long to load with it enabled. Go ahead and enale it and see what I'm talking about.

Found the g-sensor right before I read your post. Thx.. Also, seems like the cab fix worked. The ROM is real nice as far as I can tell and I've been testing now for over a couple of hours. One other small bug. I've gotta keep putting back my screen brightness as it keeps putting it back to the stock settings after ever soft reset and randomly every so often but other than that, I like it!

UPDATE: I think I found out how to get the screen to stop adjusting. Was in the startup. Any way to get IE6 to play the flash videos on sites such as youtube. Or even do this in opera..? Thanks.

Ok, this ROM comes equipped with Lumos(click there). You need to go through Lumos setup under tweaks folder if you want to change the settings. I have preset it to save battery. You will notice that when you are in a dark area, the screen may be dimmer, and when in bright area the screen will be brighter.
Opera should have flash support built in(with addition of FlashLite3.1), but Youtube requires Flash 10, which is not supported by Opera. You can view videos on certain sites, but not ones that require Flash 9 or 10. You can use Skyfire for these sites ;) I thought I had included Flash3.1, but for some reason it was missed. I'll work on it for RC1.
About the IE, I wouldn't know, as I have never really used it. I prefer Opera. If you go to www.m.youtube.com you can view the mobile version of youtube. It will play videos through streaming media player. You could also use the Youtube app which would be your best bet..

The start menu shortcuts are handled different in 6.5. Stil catching up with all the changes. I'll add that to the fix in post 3 tonight. Thanks
