ROM upgrade to WM2003 2nd Ed?
So with this great news, does anyone have any idea if/when we will be able to upgrade our current Himalayas to Second Edition?

Hopefully it will be out and available in someone's kitchen soon. I'd sing from the mountain tops in my underwear for simple portrait/landscape switching and a better version of IE. I'd save a bunch of memory by dumping the 2 apps. I use that stuff now.

answer me own question
oh i asked the question about how peeps will get this rom updates ages ago and got absolutely no answers - but a look at brighthand gives some clues:
http://www.brighthand.com/article/When_Will_WM03SE_Updates_Be_Available
so im not betting much on o2 providing a 2nd edition rom update for my xda1.

SETH´s NEON V3 FINAL & V3 LIGHTER

SETHS V3 FINAL & V3 LIGHTER
Band Patch added thanks to BenMHarvey.
​This is the Rom i have been using for the last month, it was going to be the ongoing work from V2.
I have made the decision not to develop Neon Roms anymore, so this is very much my last project. There are a few people that i would like to thank on this forum for their support through my learning process and i wish them best with their future devices. (They know who they are)!
I´m not really to bothered about Rom builds and numbers, my only objective was to find a Rom that worked well with my device. And being happy with this current one i have used it for months.
This Rom is UC compliant, basically you install what you want and have complete control of new cabs that you might want to add on.
Its simple:
1st - Create a document in notepad called SDConfig.txt
2nd - Add this text onto the file:
LOCK:Enabled
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\Opera Default Browser Registry.cab
CAB: \Storage Card\Cabs\DiamondCalculatorSkin2.cab
LOCK: Disabled
RST: Reset
3rd - Change or add the name of the cabs you want to install on your device.
4th - Save the file onto the root of your storage card.
5th - Create a Folder called "Cabs" on your storage card and place your cabs there.
Note: The name of the files have to be the same as the ones you typed in the SDconfig file.
Now when you install your new Rom, the cabs will be installed automatically.
Attached is my sample SDconfig file.

Removed Apps:
WLMessenger
Opera
Google Maps
Powerpoint
PDF viewer
Recorder
Some Ringtones
Just in case you prefer a lighter version with more space, besides that exactly the same as V3... And very fast.

Hope all you Neon users enjoy.

Seth
thanx for all of your hard work!!!
Yes, great job
Brilliant - Thank you.
hello
i am having an error...
From :
Image Version : 1.36
To:
Image Version : 3.00.000.0
after the 1% i get
Error 244 : Invalid Model ID
this Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone.Please check your Update Utility.
Don't go!
I think you're the only, or one of a few, people developing for the NEON. Your rom's are the only ones I've tried on my NEON that actually work for any ammt of time! Don't go! Was it something we said? The lack of donations? Bummer....Thanks for your hard work and the contribution you made to this forum.
thanks for your great work
I'm with the previous reply. Please don't go, Seth. I just went from V2 to V3 and I finally have a phone that works the way I want. If its a matter of donations, let us know. If we need to be more vocal about a seperate forum, I'll shout it out.
Please, don't stop.
Bump
New Rom added.
Seth does this fix the band issue that was in V2??
Edit: Still suffers from incorrect bands
Works great Seth, its sad to see you leave mate new rom looks great
any screenshots of this ROM?
Looks just like his V2 but better some great additions and lots of handy little things added akes it one of the best roms to flash and go no need for lots of changes
Here are 2 .reg files that contain the correct Band Settings for the HTC Touch Dual 850 (Neon200)
This is attempt 2 at using the attach feature
Keyboard Issues
Hi Seth/Anyone,
I am having trouble with the 20 key keypad in Opera. It doesn't seem to allow input at all. Has anyone had this problem?
I have also noticed you have left of the java VM is there a way this can be added?
Thanks Wookienow.
I have the same problem in Opera 9 and 9.5. It works good in V 8.65.
Telstra Foxtel on Next G - How?
Hi All, thanks to my good friend Mike and seth, I now hope I have a faster NEON200 having just completed the leap of faith and upgraded my workhorse phone However, I miss my Foxtel TV - anyone got a streaming player and a way to have the Telstra WAP Gateway authenticate my NEON200 as a bonafide Telstra device so that I can watch Foxtel TV again? Thank you.

Well I did pick on something else as well as not being able to play Foxtel mobiletv anymore, and that is the calc.exe was missing its skin SpbCalc_P.gif so here it is for those who want to use this O/S ROM by seth. Once you unzip it and drag it over to your NEON, it has to sit in the /Windows directory of your NEON because calc.exe looks for it as /Windows/SpbCalc_P.gif

Well the answer is, after some surfing of this quality forum and also whirlpool, to watch Telstra Foxtel in all its glory (after you've subscribed of course) you just need to change the User Agent in the NEON200 registry from HTC_TouchDual Mozilla/4.0 to HTC_P5530 Mozilla/4.0 and also point your APN telstra.internet through the Telstra WAP gateway proxy of 10.1.1.181:80 and point Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE) to the URL of mobiletv.telstra.com None of this bizo of loading telstra cab files or default i-mate cab files (those cab files don't work and just add irrelevent Telstra and i-mate files to your NEON200).
What's more, by creating 2 different internet accessing connection profiles - one that uses the WAP proxy and one that doesn't - you can still watch all the free stuff on YouTube with the profile that doesn't use the proxy !!!
Work will be happy as well because I can still access my MS Exchange push email from my workhorse NEON200 LOL. Only now I won't feel like throwing it at the wall after it resets when when I want to make a phone call, or simply can't dial international without soft reseting the bloody thing.
Shall post up later how I started off with a slooooow Telstra off-shelf HTC Touch Dual 850 (NEON200) and got to the point where I am today thanks to Seth, Mike and other posters on this forum and on whirlpool. I ain't saying yet I'm happy with what I got, because I haven't had a chance to really use what I have now for any period of time. But I am hoping it will be a lot better than what I had based on comments in this thread
It's late now past 2am and I'm tired after working most of the day on this as well as my day job - what a day !!!

Abbey

Congrats Mr Chef Sir!
First Phone, First Post, First Custom ROM. Wishing you success in Cooking this little baby
Hi huzheyi, ur ROM is great. Thx 4 ur effort. Any chance for 6.5.3 update?? Perhaps u can try 2close some startup prog. 2 minimize the ram usage. If we can achieve 80mb free RAM then d fon will b flawless.

Base ROM for HD2

After spending the last 2 days going through all of the HD2 threads I still cannot find a clean (I mean all the unnecessary carrier programs removed) ROM.
Is there one available somewhere that I have not looked?
Can someone please point me in the right direction?
This is a good phone that could be great without all the extra unused software on it.
Thanks in advance.
Clarity
Try VBN's clarity, you will never regret,
What exactly do you want removed? If you're not specific, people are going to recommend essentially everything. I want a stock 6.5 ROM with no new apps, themes or icons added and the following apps removed:
Barnes & Noble eReader
Blockbuster
Facebook
MobiTV
Slacker Radio
Twitter (Peep)
Ferrari GT Evolution
Millionaire 2010
Prince of Persia HD
Guitar Hero 5 Mobile
Tetris Demo
I haven't found one exactly like this yet though. I will probably end up trying the Energy Standard Reference as my first flashed ROM but I will probably wait until the next version of Co0kie's Home Tab comes out.
Paten - that is exactly what I am talking about, I could add a few more to the list, but you got the point.
venky80 - I am checking it out now.
Thanks for the replies.
Why not download my oskitchen build? It is very easy to use and you can have the rom exactly as you want it I have not made any changes execpt updating software to the latest versions

[Q] 2 Qs from a just-converted-to-android exWM user

I am so curious about my first android toy (X10), I am very excited, so I'm ready to be flamed and bashed for my noob Qs (search is not working properly )
Oh yes ! I'm a noob again
My Qs:
1- How do I sort my contacts list in last/first name instead of fist/last ??
2- Is it possible to auto-sync contacts avatars to their corresponding facebook profile pic ??
Thanks for being kind
If you've come from WM then you will know we all have to be a noob at some point.
On the contact front, don't think the stock phone book works that way. I use a freebie app called Gesture Search, you use it to draw with your finger the first letter of your contact, be it first or last name. You can add more letters if you need to narrow your selection down. There are probably other phone book/contact apps out there on the market and others can point you in the direction of their favorite.
There is another app called Sync my pix which lets you bring over Facebook contact pics but I think that the 2.1 update due very soon gives you a better Facebook for Android app that lets you sync Facebook and your phone.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Android!
these are small issues, but somehow dissapointing
will I be able to sort my contacts with the OS upgrade ??

I must admit, the flavour of this post is a little better than the one asking us to read the user manual for you
You're going to go through a big disappointment phase, noticing Android just isn't anywhere near as customisable as WM. This will soon turn into elation when you realise Android isn't anywhere near as buggy, ugly, or downright crap as WM.
Android 'works', WM doesn't - it's kina the between WM and Apple - you sacrifice some customisation but you get something nice in return that doesn't need quite so much anyway...
I don't think you'll ba able to sort your contacts - google "Android releases" or something to find out a little more about that... there's also a thread in here somewhere that lists a whole lot of changes.
also, think outside the square on this one - maybe just re-write them lastname, firstname and there you have it. of course that's a pain, but it's a method.
I think syncing with Facebook is part of 2.1 (not sure though).
My advice is to let go, and embrace the new platform for what it is - I went through a ton of pain moving from WM, but it was worth it!
Enjoy!
thank you k1sr
Soon there will be less Qs and more collaborations
Great to see u on here gtrab and I'm stoked for what's to come.
Imho once u get familiarized with android u will like it way more than winmo

Wow looks like i will be trying this on my spare HD2 1st. This will make things a lot easier for most people. I'll press the button.

Yes same problem for me with Moon light !
i need to enter my code!!!
Thanks downloading both now.
First time with this build i can donwnload from market
thanks
Woohoohh it's arrived... downloading...
Downloading now, so with this we dont have to active our WP7 again....?
thanks for share....
nice,, expecting more..
Installed, work great, can now download and install from market but its kinda lagging for me,and network.
Other then that its awesome.
Can't download from marketplace and still need Activated code!
Just installed Moon Light rom and tried to activate with my activation code and got an error:
Problem with server
We're really sorry, but we've run into a problem, and we're not sure what caused it. This might be a temporary issue that will be fixed if you try again later, but if you keep seeing this error and want to call support, here's an error code that might help them figure out the problem:
0xFFFFFFEC
actual problem with the server or just the rom?
To all! You need your own activation code becose microsoft banned code inside the rom.And it be allways like that.The best of this rom is have shevron and perfomance tweak.
Working
I have it installed and working flawless so far.
I can confirm that the moon light rom does work. I installed, realised I didnt write down my previous activation code, so I called and got another one. (Dont hate, im in the US) Put it in, and started downloading from the market. Other than the market being really slow, and installing taking forever, but I can live with that. I am afraid to plug it into my computer and having it reject everything. Someone let me know if plugging into a computer doesnt produce any problems.
