New 3VOLUTION series ROMS! I cooked up these ROMS with packages from the new HTC SNAP. The new 3VOLUTION series of Smartphone ROMS will give all new life to our older devices. And since the CAV has a pretty fast CPU and descent RAM, it runs very well. Give it a run and please report any bugs found.

This ROM only flashes your phones Operating System and Splash screens. Your radio is seperate and will not be modified. I have not tested this ROM on Dopod devices, only HTC. Please flash, test, report, and enjoy!

Included in the ROM (basics for now):

* All new Phone Canvas and HTC Sliding Panels
* Some customized splashes, backgrounds, and icons
* HTC Weather Panels (6.1)
* HTC Album and Comm Manager
* HTC Camera and Camcorder
* New HTC Dialer
* Internet Explorer 6.0 (with mouse pointer!)
* New HTC Inner Circle Application
* CeleTask and CeleCmd
* All new Settings for better customization
* CHome Configurator
* Office Mobile
* SIM Manager and Task Manager
* USB to PC
* Adobe Reader LE 2.0
* ClockOnTop Application
* ROM is Application unlocked
* (Removed Windows Live for now, I can re add it later)

Current known bugs:

* 6.5 ROM has a Homescreen bug, please see workaround below
* The Cavalier hardware has major bugs. No OS newer than 19XXX will run correctly. Use Version 0.99 for a stable WM 6.1 release.

I know that for some, as for me, the Bluetooth problem is major. If anyone wants to take a stab at it and help find a fix, by all means, please do! I think it has something do to with btdrt.dll not registering properly.

Flashing instructions (Remove the SD card!!):

1. HardSPL Recommended! See here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=398945
2. Download and unzip the file
3. Run RomUpdateUtility.exe
4. Follow the prompts
5. The flash will take about 8-10 minutes
6. Upon first boot, it will seem frozen for a few minutes, maybe even go black. This is NORMAL!
7. Enjoy!

In case something goes wrong:

1. Remove the battery and the SD Card--> Put ONLY the battery back in.
2. While holding the camera button, press the power button
3. The multicolor boot screen will pop up
4. Plug in the USB cable and flash back your shipped (HTC or Dopod) ROM
5. Find out what went wrong and reflash this new ROM properly

This is a WM 6.5 TEST build. This version is not as stable as 0.99 WM 6.1.

One small problem

Love this ROM, looks great, works very well for the most part, only one small problem I've found so far. When I open the start menu it shows recent items, but when you use the left softkey to open "All Programs" the button flashes, but nothing changes, you are just stuck at the recent items menu. You can't get to any other installed apps... Would love it if a fix were available...

More info

I am using the DOPOD C730. Just for the heck of it I re-flashed the ROM to my phone. That did seem to fix the issue, now when I press the "All Programs" softkey, the menu expands and shows all installed programs. Confirming that bluetooth does not work with this ROM on the DOPOD C730 either. WiFi works ok, and other features seem good. I'll report anything else I find as well. So you guys can ignore my previous post about the programs menu, its working after a ROM re-flash.

ROM expires?

I just rebooted my phone and noticed that this ROM appears to expire. I get a message saying this concludes the beta test of this software. I can't get past it and am going to re-flash the original ROM for now. Looking forward to a final build of this ROM to use!

I've got the same problem as joe- I'll bet htc put an expiration date on the rom. One (temporary) workaround would be to set an incorrect, earlier date, I suppose. But otherwise, an awesome rom! Great job!

oh, and also none of my apps seem to be able to use data. I did auto configure for at&t, and IE can get online, but neither skyfire, facebook, or seven email seem to be able to use the data connection.

This might be due to the Home Screen timeout issue I am battling. Goes to "the layout cannot be loaded" after letting it sit at idle for a while. Try unchecking the "show recent programs" box in Home Screen settimgs. I am working on a permanent fix. Uploading another test version right now for you guys to try. Bluetooth fixed!!!! Please test A2DP, etc... :)

WOW! You guys got that "time-bomb" It also happened to Excalibur users with NRG's Energy ROM. I am uploading a new version now with SYS 21048 that is not going to expire... (hopefully) :)

Thats weird. I use 3G data with everything. Outlook, email, IE, Google Maps, etc. Check to make sure its set to use either Internet Connection or Media.net if on AT&T. Uploading 1.01 now. Check the first post for the link.
