5.10.071.6TH (b23569)

The rationale behind this ROM was to make it clean and stock-like. It was made for the HTC Touch Pro and is my interpretation of what a WM 6.5 ROM would be like if HTC had designed it themselves (minus Manila/TF3D). Only HTC applications (or applications which have been included in official HTC ROMs) have been included in this ROM, and any third-party applications must be installed by the user. No weird and wonderful customisations have been made to this ROM in keeping with the stock-like philosophy. Everything that you might expect HTC to include in their official ROMs (with the exception of TF3D) has been included, in addition to standard WM6.5 features. Another goal in this ROM was to keep it as bug-free as possible and thus the absolute latest and usually buggy versions of applications may not be included. I have used the latest bug-free versions of applications.

This ROM is similar to Da_G's clean ROM, except it is customised for the Touch Pro, and includes more HTC applications than his ROM. These include the Comm Manager, Calculator, Album, MP3 Trimmer, Power Off Warning, Connection Setup plus others. .NetCF 3.5 and Opera Mobile browser are also included in this ROM. This ROM is UC enabled.

Note that this ROM is for a generic HTC Touch Pro and is NOT customised for any particular carrier such as AT&T. The keyboard layout is for the Touch Pro, so if you are using a Fuze please download and install this file found in post #2. If you are using a Fuze and wish to remap the PTT button, please install this cab. This ROM has been tested extensively and undergone many updates and bug-fixes. Having said that, if you find any bugs, please don't hesitate to describe them below.

Lastly, for your information, this ROM uses the 1.14.25.35 rilphone.dll. Enjoy the ROM!

Thanks for using my ROM! For months and months I've kept this ROM free and donation-free, but recently I've become low on cash (I'm an unemployed university student haha) so I've decided to start accepting donations. I will always keep this ROM free to download and use but if you appreciate that huge number of hours of work that I've put into it, please donate to keep this ROM going. I don't demand or even expect donations, but every cent donated will definitely help me out!

I would love to, but unfortunately I don't have a Rapidshare account. I can upload it using a free account, but that would be somewhat pointless because it would get deactivated after 10 downloads. Can someone who has a rapidshare account please kindly mirror the file? Thanks!

I'll go try this one, many thanks!

UPDATE 1: I upload the file on some mirrors... sorry, I uploaded on Rapidshare without a premium account...
UPDATE 2: 2 Mirrors added!
UPDATE 3: MORE MIRRORS!!!

@Topic: This ROM rocks my Touch Pro to the limit! Before this one I used the clean fuze rom from Da_G which is also cool, timolol did a good job!

I have chosen not to include TF3D in this ROM because in my opinion TF3D2 is too buggy, and TF3D1 is not any better than the WM6.5 titanium interface. If a newer version of TF3D2 is released in the future, I will consider cooking it in at a later stage. However, currently one of my major aims with this ROM is for it to be completely bug-free which is at odds with the inclusion of TF3D2.

ok. I understand that TF3D2 is buggy and you don't want to include it. I don't use it and wait for released version. TF3D1, If you prefer to use titanium you can always disable it on Today settings. I like TF3D and I think that i'm not only one person who would like to have it and your rom will be much closer to stock rom. maybe there is a cab file with TF3D1?

Sorry, I don't have a cab file for TF3D1, but for TF3D2 look here. Another reason for not cooking TF3D in is that it consumes a LOT of memory, and this is a waste if you're not going to use it (I personally don't think the tradeoff is worthwhile).

Basically, you get the message. Everything that you'd expect HTC to include in a WM6.5 ROM (with the exception of TF3D) has been included in this ROM in addition to all stock WM6.5 features.
