Tips/Updates (by ltxda):
- Save As enhancement. Go to Settings, System, select File Dialog Changer and check "Exchange Standard File Dialog". This changes out the standard Save As window and provides an enhancement where you can choose any folder/subfolder on your device and navigate the structure when trying to save files from any source.
- WkTask enable: it is disabled by default and must be enabled from the start menu and set to start on startup(if prefered). It will place the battery bar on top like in previous bars if the setting is selected. The version is not the latest because the latest causes issues.
- wkTask: Two nice features...of course they are in the manual...to get back to Today screen from any program....click-hold the area where the X typically is and drag left. This takes you right back to the Today screen. To minimize the current app, click-hold the X area and drag down. Very useful little program that has replaced Magic Button for me. Also allows per app control. Thanks Hirad for the recommendation! Also, This resides in the area where the X typically sits to close programs, etc. Start wkTask from Programs, click and hold the "X" area and go into preferences for wkTask. Make sure it's set to autostart by going to Startup tab and clicking the corresponding button. This is a great task manager.
- FingerTouch Keyboard: By default the option is not set to to layout 1. This can be changed via the options or via the bottom left corner button.
- Today Screen: All/default plugs have been deactivated except for htc home. Just go to Settings, Personal, Today and go to the Items tab to reactivate what you want.
- Reminders: I'm annoyed by the constant reminder notifications after the initial notice. To disable this annoyance go to Settings, Personal, Sounds & Notifications, Notifications tab, select Reminders from the drop down and uncheck "Repeat". Not sure if this bothers anyone else but it really annoyed me and I've seen a couple of posts asking how to disable this.
- Vijay555's VJCandela aka Flashlight: It's been reported on other threads that prolonged activation of the flash light LED may cause it to burn out so use at your own risk. I have used it without problems. Comes in very handy. Also great for blinding your enemies before an attack! ;-p
- HTC Home customizer: the version on the forums will mess up the htc home plugin because of the new larger vga images. the addon cabs have the older version that also worked in all dpis.
- TCPMP: starts in portrait and is used in portrait but after closing with X will make the phone go back to landscape.
- Config App: A new config app can now be found in settings under system. This app is made thanx to cmonex and will allow u to do many things. If u any have suggestions including what to add please pm me.
- Touchflo: Touchflo has the scroll sounds enabled by default. this can be disabled via the system tab in settings. settings for touchflo are also found in the new config app.
- VueFlo: the sensitivity for changing orientation can be adjusted in the system tab of settings. orientation changing can be turned on and off via the config app.
- SRS Wow HD: it can be found in the system tab in settings. use this to get surround sound and to improve sound. it is mostly used for the speakers or a headset.
- Large Start Menu: i have moved the settings for the large start menu from personal to system tab in settings. u can enable or disable the large start menu from in there.
- USB to PC: a new usb to pc tool is included. it allows mass storage now and is found under the connections tab in settings.
- Opera browser: easy configuration can be done by typing opera:config into the adress bar. it already has been modded though to allow up to 50 tabs and to have a ie7 user id. a cab in program files/system will make opera have a x7510 user id again.
- Customizations: only sdautorun.exe is ran and if finds the sdconfig.txt on ur sd will execute ur settings and reset. if not will end the customizations and allow you to use the phone. the phone might need to be turned back on.
- skype, weatherpanel, igo, video playback: turn off htc home and if needed install the one in the addons. it has been found htc home causes issues with these because of it being vga size and a resource hog.
- missing icons and same welcomehead in all dpis: these are caused by realvga. tobias needs to update his realvga to fix these issues cause by the new aku1.
- vga album: it can hang sometimes. this could be also associated with htc home. if it does hang just do a soft reset. this is do to the app being vga. newer versions in the future will fix the loading issues.
- enlarge menus: the setting to turn off the enlarged menus is found in the config app. there also is a advanced button to adjust how big u want the menus. if u really want a finger friendly menu, try 1600 but dont go above it.
- apptodate: this is a interesting app we included that will once ran check for new version of the rom and config app.
- wmp in 96dpi portrait: there is a issue with it starting. the work around is to run wmp in any other mode and go to the skin selection and select the proper skin in there then coming back to this mode.(tested by going to 192 dpi and selecting the 192 dpi skin)

Please Note: This is a new aku first so like any other new version of windows mobile, some things might not work for now. Also there is some unreleased and beta stuff in the rom so somethings take a bit longer to load.

thanks for coming
yes, it is great that AP4 is coming soon; but if you need to post about pressing F5 or thanking the team, why not post in one of the other threads discussing the same topic.
And when it is released, please try to refrain from posting things like Downloading now or thanks for the great Rom.
If you really want to thank Pawel, ltxda, Boinger66, Olipro and Cmonex, why not click on one of their signatures and donate to the project or them individually.
If you must post about "great rom thanks", "downloading now"
"getting another beer","American Beer is mostly water", Euro Beer tastes like the crap at the bottom of the keg",etc; please post those in the other bull **** threads..
AND if you like the Rom DONATE a few bucks to the AP Team!
Ok, Chris...you can delete this and the other crap posts in this thread!
Thanks for all the hard work AP Team. Hitting F5 and charging my X7501.
waiting as well
bugs
hey guys does anyone know if the bugs for th 66% battery been fixed? what about the other bugs that the bets testers submitted? whats still buggy in the ap4 so far?
cant wait to flash it soon.. major reason for ap4 is the battery percentage driver and the orientation that switches automatically..
This is a copy and paste job, the thread that is most updated can be found at www.SkinZone.org. Please ask questions and do your research before flashing any ROM. This is my first public release as I have been cooking my personal ROM for a while and sharing it with the Gold Members at SkinZone.
Just another option for anyone who wants to give a try. This ROM comes preskinned and we are working on new skins daily. Manila contacts is currently the default contacts application until we get a skin finished for iContact to match the new Manila Contacts application. Sorry if I missed any info, I am off to work. I will answer any questions, but I recomend using the forum at skinzone to keep most updated. I will be adding new builds as it becomes necessary as well as bug fixes and add-on cabs can be found there.
LINK to thread: http://www.skinzone.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=153&p=1006#p1006
Thanks to everyone, and thanks to whoever posted this wallpaper in Diamond forum. Please come forward and I will add you in the credits.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS FOR GSM ONLY!! If you have no sim card then you are not GSM, sorry. I will not be held responsile for any damages cause to your device. Please read this tutorial on how to flash a ROM if you are not familiar. Also, HardSPL is required. I recommend radio 1.12.25.19, but ROM should work wih any Raphael radio.
New Versions are now available in 2 flavors. One with Rhodium manila working nearly 100% on update 1C and one without manila. Manila and nonmanila versions are basically identical except for manila and a few connecting apps(Weathermaster, new contact card,...). The non manila verson includes iContactBE with Snowball skin(Thanks). I will be including iContact in Manila version for future updates, but I want to make a skin to match Manila contacts first. This ROM is made as a tribute to skinners everywhere and includes skins from many individuals out there. If your skins are included and you are not mentioned here, PM me and I will definitely put it in
Thanks to everyone here for helping out, and thanks to all the cooks at XDA for sharing their information and packages. Gianni86 at XDA for some of his work that is included. And now with the new version special thanks to Holdemdogg at SkinZone for a customized Windows Media Player, and help figuring out how to do the manila files. Voltage for his inspiration and wonderful work at SkinZone.
This ROM is based on HTC build 20771 thanks to At0Mang for the kitchen to get me started. Finally got the connection setup wizard from Rhodium working. I use XBMods version 1C with all fixes cooked in for it. I have been using it for a while and everything is working. Please let me know if you find differently. I used the keyboard from Touch HD which has arrows. This is a personal preference, so if you dont like that one let me know and I can change it for the next release. I am changing things almost daily, but will not make a new build until we have enough changes to constitute a new build. I will post a changelog and bug fixes in the following posts. Hope you enjoy.

Please post any bugs and steps you took to remedy if applicable. I will be maintaining and updating this ROM for a while and am making new builds all the time.

I am trying to make a fast stable ROM with most of my apps cooked in to make it easy on myself. Just decided to share this version because I thought it was cool.

If you have problems with downloading you may need to disable security on your PC until you get it downloaded and unzipped. Otherwise, let me know if I can help more. RaphaelCustomRUU.exe often shows as a virus and is deleted by security programs. I have also uploaded just the RaphaelCustomRUU so if you happen to lose it, you dont need to redownload the entire package.
UPDATE: 4-26-09 I have been working on a new build using 21042 as a base. It is a hybrid of sorts, using some parts from 20771 and XIP from 21042. PM me if you are interested in testing this build. I will be uploading in the next day or so. Still might have a few bugs to work out, but deffinitely worth a try. All features of current build, plus the newer notification bubbles and some little extras. Will include footprints application with Google plugin, some new shortcuts in start menu. Calender shortcut will take you straight to calendar tab, etc. Battery usage is higher than current build(hard to beat that ). And available RAM is a little lower. I am working on finding a happy medium with available RAM, battery performance, and speed. This is why I will be uploading to my FTP(graciously provided by www.SkinZone.org) a new version. It will be password protected, so if you want to try it you will have to PM or email me. You may also post a request here or at Skinzone and I will PM you with the password.
If you like the ROM and would like to donate you can donate to Skinzone here, or XDA-Developers here. And if you really like it, you can buy my wife something to get her off my back here . Any of these are welcomed, but not necessary. This is a hobby for me, and I enjoy it most of the time. My wife on the other hand does not
Changelog and Bugs
Removed HTC Album from autorotated apps, seems to load much, much faster. Added FingerSuite for message boxes. Removed a lot of stuff, if your missing something let me know if you need a cab. Chrome now skinned with grey selection(except notification manager. I'm at a loss right now). ChromeRefresher with icon to keep grey selection when changing tsk and back to HTCBlack.tsk(may not work on other .tsk but let me know). Icons for manila tweaks. Windows Media player skinned by Holdemdogg at skinzone. Updated to WeatherMaster 2.0. Updated connection setup. Got PTT mod working correct with icons, etc. thanks to NATF for the package and info. Replaced Gyrator with G-config. Lots more....
-If you need PowerPoint, just navigate to \windows\ and send ppt.exe to start menu as shortcut. Still not in because no matching icon yet. EDIT: Have the icon, ready for next edition.
-Attached is a fix for contacts shortcuts in No Manila version. This will only revert registry entry "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Rai\:MSCONTACTS" back to original from --switchtopage Manila://people.page back to original.This was a leftover registry change from the manila build. I am cooking a new no manila build as I type this with the fix cooked in. It will also include new Footprints application with google plugin. Note: This cab is only needed if you downloaded the original Chome No Manila. Not needed for No_Manila_Update.
-Just noticed that Footprints is not showing the text in album, just a blank space, but I am working on it. This would only effect the No_Manila_Update, as this is the only version with Footprints cooked in. I will try to have a fix for next release. EDIT: Quickfix Copy the attatched HTCAlbum.exe.0409.mui to windows overwriting existing. Then soft reset.
If you need further support, you can also PM or email me.
Add-on Cabs
Add-On Cabs
This ROM comes with file explorer extnsion, but just in case you need it here is Total commander.
AMP will add some more functions to the music tab. I will put a link to original thread when I find it. Disable TF3D before installing. Soft reset after install. Enable TF3D. Works fine for me. Adds extra buttons that go to first song of next album, or prev album.
Here are just the graphics for the transparent HTC dialer in black by Mr Hawaii.
looks nice,
gonna flash this baby and let you know
You did a fabulous job on this. Very impressive graphics and icons. If is runs half as good as it looks it will be spectacular.
All in all looks like a great piece of work.
oooo and post 2k
NSIS Error
I got an NSIS error when I tried to open it. I then re-downloaded a ROM that I've downloaded and flashed, (RRE RC2) and it worked fine. Then I tried it again and got the same NSIS error message. It says integrity check failed, or download incomplete, check with author. Any help is appreciated. It looks like a cool ROM. Thank you.

So far, so good, I been runnin the same build for a week now. I have just made some changes here and there. I swapped out some parts with couple different ROMs. Set file cache higher, and a few extra tweaks everywhere. Still a work in progress though. We're workin on some more skins to go with the chrome theme. WMP is almost done, then I want to make grayscale highlights instead of green. All in due time. But this is a good start, I listen to music all day on bluetooth and usually still have 50% at end of day with radio 1.12.25.19 and this ROM(actually a Gold Edition of this). My personal ROM has like 10 more apps cooked in too. I'll probably be hitting you up for help if somethin comes along. You get that connection setup ported yet?
Jmckeejr,
Everything fine working fine here and download went fine too.
However the finger menu are not properly skinned and you can some blue bar lines on up and down arrows. Could you please fix that. Thanks.
Installing fingersuite 1.11 solved the above problem.

I dont get any of that. Did you happen to grab a screen when you had it? I was looking into fingersuite. Is it possible to just use the message enhancements? Guess I could check for myself. Thanks for trying the ROM. Sure you'll be happy with it, I am not having any problems as of yet. There is a litle issue with adding the media players to the whitelist, but I'm looking into it.

Yeh, it downloaded very quickly (40 seconds Touch_Chrome_Public_RC1 RAR File 99,585KB, but when I tried to open it, it didn't go to zip wizard or whatever it's called on my laptop Windows XP I.E 8. It just gave me that NSIS error message, "Installer integrity check has failed. Common causes include include incomplete download and damaged media. Contact the installer's author to obtain a new copy." I'll keep trying. I really wanna flash this ROM! Thanks for your RE:.
I got the file to open late last night using something called jzip. But then my computer told me the Raphael RUU was a trojan and deleted it, and I gave up and flashed Mystic. I'm downloading the mirror you posted, as I type this. Thanks you for your assistance.
Ok, same trojan thing on the RUU, and now getting integrity check fail error message using jzip. Thanks again.
Ok guys. I have downloaded and redownloaded. I get it every time with no issues. Your lucky its less than 100MB(barely) so here is a mirror.
Also, I uploaded some new stuff to the add-ons. Chrome Manila changes all selections everywhere to grey, and you can read the rest in the 2nd or 3rd post.
Here you go
Just wanted to say this runs great.
SPENT 2 DAY WITHOUT A CHARGE AND AT 71% BATTERY! incredible!!!
Only thing not working is the weather database manager. I cant add my town i get this huge error. But hey no issue I have never been able to run it on any ROM!!!!!
Thanks. I am already working on an update that will include some new stuff like finger message box and grey selections in everything to go with chrome theme. Also, removing LongPress End key all together because I do not use it and have psShutXP on long press end key. Having some problems getting rid of green in album. hmmm.. anyway, should be an update in a few days. I'm cooking WeatherMaster in instead of install and hopefully the new edition will help you out. I get my weather working fine with a small town here. Also, if you use sashimi or UC, you should be good to go here. I cooked them both in.
can't wait!!!
I use showco's XWeather so no issue there. Again love it.

Its there, just no shortcut. Not many that use it, so just go to windows and find ppt.exe and send to start menu as shortcut. I will see about including it in future release.

Sorry, at this time only will be available in WWE. There will however be a version with manila and one without for those that use SPB Mobile shell or WAD or any other home screen replacements. I am actually thinking of taking out all external language files to lighten things up more(just a thought). For now though, there are some files in there for other languages at least for the keyboard and stuff.
jmckeejr...
Excellent ROM that I wanted... Thanks.. Free RAM fro Program is 126MB!!!
Battery?? PERFECTO!!.. Thanks..
Love the ROM very much...
Thanks, New versions on the way
Thanks. New versions coming today. Manila and no manila. Some new features like finger message box, chrome refresher, and icons for more programs. Also got hold of the Rhodium connection setup and teeter with 50 levels(instead of 32). Doing some final tests now, then should be up in a little while. We have a great balance of performance:battery, and now lighter as well(more storage). If you like Chrome, your gonna love Chrome2.0. A lot of new custom skinwork, and more. Details in first post when I get to it or at www.skinzone.org (will be there first)

Wow, great... version QVGA, please...
Good one! I will include it in my theme: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=504716 if you don't mind.
wvga please, and would it be possible to (may b discuss with the other CHome devs) get all those panels en merge them in one application so we can decide for ourselves which ones to use and not to use. One app to modify Titanium would be great!

GREAT ADD ON! THNX for this ! ... I see U know WM 6.5 more than me ... Maybe somebody know how to change path to pictures directory ? I want to display (on WM 6.5 Today) pictures from Internal not device.
Yes !
That's an excellent contribution to Titanium.
I will try to integrate this in my cpr.
THANKS !!!
First off, great work!!!
Secondly, how'd you manger to get this to work. I noticed there's no cpr's in the CAB. I was going to make the layouts for qvga etc lol.

NetCF 3 and 3.5 are just extensions ot the 2.0 framework. So Favorite People should run on 2.0 or higher. If you'd like to help me out and test that would be great. I plan on installing a fresh rom in a couple days and will test myself with 3.5 only.
thanks

Thanks drkfngthdragnlrd! You made all this possible.
Hehe, I was waiting to see how long it would take for someone to ask how I'm deploying this. Deployment was more difficult than the app itself. It's a mult-step process I'll try to explain real quick.
1. I use the cab to install the required program files and start menu icon as usual.
2. I use a custom embedded setup.dll in the cab to perform the following functions:
a. Check the "Plugins" registry value for "ATContacts" and append it if it's not there.
b. Check the "ExtensibilityXML" registry value for "ATContacts" and insert it in front of "CPhone" if it's not there.
c. This is the big one. Get the device resolution to determine the names of the Titanium cpr files. eg: Titanium_(width)x(height).cpr for portrait and opposite of that for landscape. Then check with RegularExpressions if my ATContacts markup is already in the .cpr files. If it's there delete it incase it's old and then add the latest markup appropriate for that screen size.
All this makes the plugin fully compatible with any other installed plugins or customizations.
Go ahead and do the QVGA layouts if you want and send them. I'll take the ATContacts portion out and insert it into my installer. It will know what resolution to install automatically.

If you can give me your original P&L 480x640 layouts. I can make qvga/wqvga/wvga and square. and than just send it back to youIt's simply a matter of just adjusting the left and top values of the original. QVGA being half of VGA. As for the w version, just moving the icon on the right over how ever many pixels bigger the screen is in landscape.
Oh yeah, that is a great method for installing it. The only suggestion I'd make is not use cphone as some people are using the chome all-in-one plugin which means they won't have cphone in the list. CClock is probably the best bet as almost everyone wants the clock.
And is it possible to create a similar plugin which would display a list of recently made and received calls?
great contribution to titanium =)
looking forward for wvga to include it in my rom
Great little addition to Titanium, thanks!
To confirm, this works great on a CDMA Diamond running FuFu Rom 4.5.3.1 which is rocking .NET Compact Framework v3.5.7283.0. Just an FYI, this will not install to Internal Storage, so make sure that you're installing to Device.
For the next version, I would be really excited to see contacts sorted alphabetically if possible.
Thanks again!

That is already there, it is the phone tab, it displays normally missed calls and if you tap on it you get the call log.

Hey - couple of things
1. All in all, excellent ROM.
2. Minor suggestions -
- I'd like to remove stuff like fring because I don't use it. In the future versions, is it possible to install it via a cab so that i can uninstall it?
- Maybe organize the apps into specific folders (other than one folder called tool)?
- ATT Fuze KB didn't work out of the box (cab fix works). Perhaps mod this?
- Remove the horizontal lines in the today screen for non-manila, non-chrome users?
Other than that, think of adding a "donate" link

for donate link, i am doing this for my raphael phone and i am not able to test each and everything on my Raphael, so i just publish and let others to test the ROM with me and use their feed back to make my ROM better. so i don't think i am in need of donation
No Owner Info?

This firmware will work on the P4350 Herald?
Hey Arkl, Under the notes section right, where it says "if you customize TF3D Tab position or need to restart TF3D,
please do hard reset in order to position TF3D properly"
whats that mean exactly b/c I dont think I quite follow. I want to flash to your rom but just want to make sure of some things before I do so. only b/c at this point my phones using another rom an my phones running well so I dont want to go to another rom an have issues etc...

No, you need to look in the Herald ROM forum for those:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=349
You cannot put a ROM on a different device without some major rebuilding of 75% of the ROM.

this is the latest leaked sys/xip 23409 build, so expect bugs, and please report here if you found bugs and comments to tune this rom perfect, just not the bugs, if you guys know fix as well, please post it.
for the TF3D issue, i think u guys noticed the start and close button Microsoft has been moved to bottom, and the height of the bottom bar also increased, and top bar (status) size got decreased as well, so TF3D will not position well, it will have a small space between top status bar and TF3D, to resolve this issue i am using an EXE file (thanks to bikeandestroyx) and its run on windows start up and move the TF3D window certain pixels up.
when u restart TF3D (for me i shuffle positions of tabs for my convenience) u also need to run this file (to make it easy, just restart the phone, and things will be alright).
i think u got it clear. please feel free to post your comments/questions/advice/fix....

Couple of more things -
1. I feel the responsiveness of the phone falls down whenever it rings. It took me about 10 seconds to answer a call yesterday after I noticed my phone ringing and started pushing the green button. It may be with the dialer, but just letting you know as fyi.
2. I saw that you assigned "Tasks" to the hold-and-press action of the call button, but it would be a good idea to have the task manager assigned to that or some other button. Again, it's a personal preference that I think others may like. Maybe the PTT button?
3. Love the smooth animation between some windows.
Just started trying out, run into first problem.

Looks like HTC volume control does not work(or is missing completely). Shows ugly default popup.
Is there any way to fix it?
Aside of that, very good ROM. Thanks.
And yes, +1 vote to remove fring.
seems like Microsoft keep changing their button location and size of top and bottom bars as well, i think we should wait till it get finalized

This application was disabled by Microsoft, no idea why (may be there is new interface coming for it, i think that's y they put redirect option)
to get Owner information back, Delete "Redirect" registry entry from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Owner]
use total commander on tools to do the above
Thanx!

Welcome to the "EnergyROM" thread !
This development thread is for my "Energy" custom firmware series for the HTC Diamond2 (Topaz) device.
The current build numbers and date can be seen in the title of this thread. I usually update the ROMs about twice a week, as new builds come down the pipe or as new software/updates are available.
I build my ROMs with four main goals.
Eye candy ( I want my ROM to look great and for it to all flow together nicely)
Speed !!!
Smoothness, consistency and good aesthetics
Stability through private beta testing before public release
I pre-configure a lot of things in my ROM, because when I flash it on my phone, I want it ready to go. So, expect the backlight to be set at the maximum brightness, the ringtone, sms/email and other notifications to already be set. Doing it this way, makes for a nice ROM that's ready out of the box.
I recommend learning to backup your settings with either Sashimi or UC (User Customization). Backing up with SPB Backup or similar products, is NOT recommended, as they tend to backup the previous release's registry/file bugs as well!
Looking at the download folder you will find two core versions of my ROM.
A 21916 Build which is the most reliable and bug free release. It has the Start menu button at the top left corner. This build uses the same stock system that came with your device. This is usually the fastest and most stable build, but it's also the least fancy
{

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
A 29022 Build that's the latest in Microsoft's development with the Start menu button at the bottom left corner and big softkeys, making it all very "finger friendly". These builds reflect the latest cutting edge technology from Microsoft. Most people choose this build... Why else would you install a custom ROM ?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can stay up to date on the status of my ROM development by "following" me on Twitter.
It's definitely the fastest way to get in touch with me and please don't be afraid to tweet me if you see major issues with the ROMs.
I generally do not answer "support" questions on Twitter, as it's really not the proper medium for that. Service packs and quick fixes will always be released as links in my tweets and that's definitely the fastest way to get a fix for a ROM.
To follow me on twitter, click here!
This post features all the Cookie Hometab based ROMs I make.
The original ROM is the "energy" version and that's a good starting point. All the rest, are themes applied to that ROM.
They all come in two versions, Cookie 1.8.5 and Cookie 2.0 (the ROM filename will be labeled "Cookie" and "Cookie.2.0, plus the name of the theme)
You can see more screenshots of these ROMs a couple of posts down.
The two Cookie versions look pretty similar, but Cookie 2.0 has multiple sliding homescreens/freely moveable widgets (similar to Android) and
quite a few more features and speed.
My own 'Energy' style
This is the best ROM version and the way Sense should have been designed by HTC
Offers the biggest customization ability out of all versions. You can add/remove bars or items on the homescreen, arrange items any way you like, plus lots of extra features
Three built in lockscreens. "HD Mini" style, Manila style or Windows style
3 pages of quicklinks with a configurable amount of shortcuts displayed
3 Homescreen layouts to choose from, as seen in the above screenshots, all completely customizable !
Link to the original thread for this mod is here > Click <
Dinik's "Anastasia"
This ROM series is skinned with Dinik's great "Anastasia" theme applied on everything.
Everything has been skinned, including Sense, the start menu items, the soft keyboard, parts of the dialer... etc
_LeCiel_'s ".sencity"
This ROM is themed with the .sencity theme released by _LeCiel_ who is a very talented artist ! Please support his work if possible.
.sencity is not %100 complete yet, but _LeCiel_ is working hard on finishing his work to completely skin the entire ROM.
Link to the original thread for this mod is here > Click <
DJC & Bobsbbq's "Touch Of Glass"
This ROM series is skinned with DJC's "Touch of Glass" theme throughout Sense and the Start Menu
More will be skinned as DJC continues his work on the theme in the future...
Link to the original thread for this mod is here > Click <
ElCondor's "GTX"
This ROM has the white GTX theme applied
Android styled taskbar, matching dialer, matching start menu background and Action screen background
GTX is a total reskin of the operating system, so expect a very different (white) experience
Link to the original thread for this mod is here > Click <
'Standard' ROMs that have no addons installed on the homescreen. Stock Sense 2.5 !
'Energy'
This series retains the stock functionality of the Sense UI. The files have been compressed by "CFC" compression. making the UI lighter and faster
This ROM still retains my theme and style, plus all the regular apps you find in my ROMs.
There are no homescreen addon-ons in this ROM. The best speed and the most stock functionality.
'Reference'
This ROM is mostly for people that want a close to stock ROM with the stock visual style. It's also perfect for doing your own customizations.
A lot of the cooked in apps are removed in this ROM, the Start menu back to the stock 3 row style
Sense and everything else is back to the default HTC green.
ROMs mostly created for enthusiasts...
MaxSense UI (android style homescreen)
This is a complete rewrite of the Sense homescreen, by maxycy.
It features a 3 screen, Android style, homescreen with widgets! The widgets can be placed ANYWHERE on the three screens.
75 Quicklink accessible on all tabs
You should really visit the original thread for this mod shown on the next line to see all the features!
Link to the original thread for this mod is here > Click <.
Titanium (ROMs for raw speed!)
This is a minimal ROM version without Sense in it. It's used primarily for people that like to customize the default 6.5 homescreen (Titanium)
You can use it to install alternate homescreen interfaces like SPB Mobile Shell, etc
Very low memory footprint and good battery life, but very simple and lacks a lot of features that you would otherwise have available in Sense...

ROM features at a glance:
Very fast startup time. You find any startup wizards in this ROM. You'll be up and running in a couple minutes after flashing the ROM.
XDA_UC is built in. It will import your custom XML and REG files from your storage card after first boot.
My own Settings Exporter application is found in the Tools folder. Use it to export all your settings after you customize the device. When a new ROM comes down the line, use it to import everything and save time.
Everything is setup to use the phone right after flashing. Sounds, notifications, etc
The HTC Messaging client is removed, leaving the windows built SMS client for much faster texting...

XDA_UC FAQ
The XDA_UC cooked in my ROMs is modified from the stock XDA_UC made by Noonski. Great addon, by the way... Noonski did a great job with this !
The version in my ROMs is trimmed down to fit the needs of my ROM series.
Some of the extra features are:
It will copy shortcuts (.lnk files) found in \XDA_UC\Start Menu\ to the device's start menu folder (\windows\Start Menu) in the hierarchy that it finds on the storage card. For example: Let's say you have a navigation package on the storage card, like Navigon. If you make a shortcut to the navigon.exe file as Navigon.lnk and copy it to \XDA_UC\Start Menu\GPS\ as "Navigon.lnk" then on a fresh ROM install it will copy any shortcuts it finds there to the same location on the device, so it'll end up in \Windows\Start Menu\GPS\. This works for other folders on the Start Menu as well. Just put the shortcuts in \xda_uc\Start Menu\ in the folders you will like the shortcuts to appear to, on the device.
It will copy a custom splash screen from \Storage Card\XDA_UC\welcomehead.192.png to \windows automatically and overwrite the one in the ROM.
It will copy a custom Sense background found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\sense\wallpaper_sense.png to the device and set that wallpaper as default in Sense. So rename your wallpaper as "wallpaper_sense.png" and drop it in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\sense\ and on the next ROM flash that wallpaper will become your wallpaper in Sense.
Other than that XDA_UC works as designed by Noonski and it will do the following things:
It will automatically import your PPCbackup (*.pib) file found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\
It will install custom XDAS scripts found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\
It will silently install CAB files found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\
It will install special CAB files that require user input (such as Agreements or any type of prompt) found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\SD
It will silently import REG files found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\
It will silently install REG files found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\Exporter, as exported by my own Settings Exporter, ONLY if the "automatic" file is also present in that folder (and it most cases it should be, enable that option in the Settings Export application's menu)
It will silently import XML files found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\
It will silently import CER files (usually Exchange certificates) found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\
It will silently run custom MSCR files found in \Storage Card\XDA_UC\
That's it, but don't forget to checkout the Addons folder and look in the XDA_UC section for tips and tutorials on how to export your email/wifi settings and various little .reg and tweaks you can add to your XDA_UC collection.
As always don't forget to check what installs automatically before reporting a problem with the ROM. Most of the time, if you notice you have a problem that nobody else is experience is because one of the cabs you dropped in the XDA_UC folder is installing automatically while you don't even think about it.
Cheers will definately give it a try, erm why does your music collection look too similar to my 90s college collection lol!! Some classics there!!
Cheers

NRGZ28
Hi! Excellent Rom, but there is one question:
The program soft key manager changes name Left softkey, but does not start the assigned program.
SORRY guys but just trying to point out the obvious,,,,,, NRG split the roms up in two, so dont you think its about time to stop with the wifi bug if you want him to continue development,,,, seriously, if you want it, flash the rom, if not dont,,,,, if you flash the rom youll find out,,, ,,, by now we should asume that the wifi IS messed up.... so why not just report if it isnt,, ,,,
i for one would like the oppotunety to be able to flash Energy roms with manilla 2.5 in the future... not trying to slam anyone or offend anyone, but just pointing out what i got from the last few post by senior members in the "genesis" forum, including NRG...
NRG: Thanx for another superb rom.... keep up the good work pls
amazing rom thank you for your hard work my phone rocks thanks to you

What's wrong about asking for a known bug in previous roms?
Considering that this is a new build and that NRG says on the first page that there are NO bugs, only some from HTM (twitter), I just want to know if has figured out what the problem was and if he has fixed it.
That's it dude....
NRG, thanks for your amazing roms, your patience and dedication!
Ok, more people saying that the wifi bug is still there. I'll post my findings when I finish downloading the file........which is going terribly slow (rs mirror).

Finally finished downloading the rom and it's installed now.
I am connected to my home wifi and I'm trying to see if wifi goes on and off.
A problem (maybe bug) that I see now is that I can't turn off the wifi manually through the com. manager. I see the slider is to the right, so wifi is on, but it's greyed out.....I can't turn it off.
I have to click on settings - wireless lan - menu - wifi - menu - turn off wifi
So this is pretty annoying.......can you guys check it out and see if you can turn wifi off manually in the com. manager??
Thanks, I'll checking the forum....
Cheers!
Thanks for all your hardwork on the EnergyROM's, you shall definatly be receiving a donation when my own personal credit crunch ends.
Love the Twitter integration too, I'll just wait a couple of revisions until it works, but its nice to see HTC embracing the "new" social networking site.

Maybe you have connected your phone with activesync and try to turn off or on a wifi? If yes... unplug phone from your pc.
Ok, I've been testing the rom now for about 40 minutes and so far no wifi bug for me.
I've let the phone on for 10 minutes and it didn't try to connect to my wifi. I've switchted the phone on and off (the screen) and it doesn't connect to wifi automatically. Which was the case in the previous version.
So for me, thusfar no wifi bugs. I'll keep the rom for a whole day and will post tomorrow with an update.
Thanks for the great rom!!
Cheers!
Wow!! another nice new ROM! thanks, NRGZ28, gonna flash this ROM later and report what i found(hopefully i would find nothing as bug).
