Ok, did anyone flash a Tango rom and if so, what's happening???? How does it compare to the DFT rom?

I just came from the DFT rom to this, here is my quick review:

  • Obvious Tango differences (multiple image MMS, etc.)
  • Ansar's rom has a few additional annoyances such as pre-installed programs which don't do anything for me (AT&T, etc.)
  • Ansar's rom includes (limited) out-of-the-box broken functionality such as the inability to modify the search button which defaults to open Phone (I grabbed the .xap from another build so I could adjust this)
  • Both roms have been stable
  • Tango seems maybe slightly faster, particularly when moving around quickly between apps
  • Ansar's rom includes "Camera Modes" which I don't believe was present in DFT. Make sure you don't update this or it will disable it
  • The TouchExplorer app was non-functional for me
  • DFT includes the DFT startup screen, Ansar's is just the HTC boot screen

Both have worked great for me so I don't think you can go wrong.

Can you post the xap mentioned above to fix search button, I have been searching and can't find it
Thanks

EDIT: Never mind I found the xap now the search button works as it should

do a google search for "searchkeysettings.xap" should be one of the first links to come up

If you do this from the phone ie you can also install it right away

I found the xap here, installed it but it doesnt work ... it shows up under settings, and when I tap it i see a black screen for a few seconds then it goes back to the settings main screen

I also tried this one by Ultrashot that was found on the XDA forums here

And this one here (which is the one given to ansar)

All go to a black screen and then exit out

any ideas?

Im going to just reflash to see if that fixes the issue .. looking like it is something up with mine

Ansar may I request you add XBmod-Yuki Certificate support to your rom? Thanks

Ok, well keep us updated. It's been slow here this weekend. I guess everyone is jumping to At&T and getting the N900. But I'll tell you. I compared my Trophy to the N900 and the speed was basically the same and I like the size of the Trophy screen.

ReFlashing worked .... I wander if it was because I had uninstalled the AT&T apps and a few others .. it looks like the SearchKeySettings app lets you pick those as well .. it may check to see if they are installed ... beats me .. but it is fixed :)

now just to set everything back up :-(

we really need a way to backup just apps and settings (email, etc)

Nice, I am going to start with this rom....

I also wish there was a way to backup all my settings (email, SMS, xbox game savesetc) BUT, for Marketplace Apps, there is a app callled reinstaller (search for it, it will reinstall your marketplace apps one by one as I understand.

Ok, I installed this. Nice and smooth so far, no major issues that I have noticed so far.

The big ones for me..
1. Bazaar says my phone is NOT fully unlocked so I cant install apps with it
2. TouchXplorer does not work.
3. Everytime I connect to Zune it says I have an update (so it tries to install it every time I connect)

I did go to a website and install an XAP with out a problem but, apps dont work ?

What issues did people have with voice control ? That is very big to me as I use voice texting all the time (no texts today yet tho) Edit: No noticed problems, did text speach..

Anyone know of a file manager that works with this rom ? I have tried 3 different ones and they will not display the file system.

File manager that works with this rom is here...(same issue with DFT's rom)

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=24636416&postcount=23


Edit: Ok, Bazaar works with the NEWEST version. I was able to install apps from Bazaar. Download from here...

http://wp-bazaar.com/bazaar/BazaarForPhone.aspx

Now if I can stop Zune from saying there is a update every time I connect, I should be ok with this rom....

If this is got Tango on it...what is the difference? I have not noticed any change from 8107 I was running before (WP7 changes, not the hacks) YET.

Do you mean XAP ? Not sure what you mean as a CAP....anyway.. I downloaded SearchKeySettings.xap from the last page from here.

http://rghost.net/37432353

When you install it, it does nothing but, if you go into settings, there is a new option "Search Key", Open that and set it to the Default.

Simple and if you wanted you can change it to open any app but, like most people, I like the default...

Dont forget to hit thanks :)

    Info on ROM development

    Hi,


    All 3 8773 ROMs i.e. 18L, 3La and 3Lb are updated

    and DeviceID set to SPAW10000, see post #1


    Regards, ansar

    Info on DeviceID

    Hi to all,


    I have used the original DeviceID 0xPC4020000 in rom building process

    Dft have used a 0xSPAW10000 instead of that

    You can change the DeviceID in the already posted ROMs with a Hexeditor

    It is at the first lines at 0x40 address

    In any case the ROMs will be re-uploaded with the above DeviceID


    Regards, ansar
