Hey guys, its angel12 from ppcgeeks. Just had some time tonight to work on my kitchen and get a new rom up hope this one works as well as my last one did. Whole new kitchen, had some help from neman on ppcgeeks, as well as llama, and a huge thanks to DCD!

null keyboard
sipchange
htc random access
htc cube (includes ftouchflo)

I had to downgrade the mms because i could not get it working. Might take a look at it today. Couple of bugs so far:
Cant use d-pad to select tabs in any program (usually once you get to the bottom of the icons it would start to select the tabs)
Aligning screen after first boot locks the device.
if you have any more bugs please post them here!
Also, if you live in a Rev. A area, please let me know if you are getting Rev. A speeds!
looks that im to be the first to test, if your uploading now of coarse.

Awesome work angel12! We need to figure out RevA for VZW
Yeah, i know. Ive talked to a couple people that have it working, and they are "young" in the forums, so i doubt they had to do anything special. Which is just weird that ours doesnt work.
Any plans on making a Sprint ROM?
Thanks,
All of this rocks.
I upgraded to your newest. I actually like your last Rom better. Better dialer, large start menu, Touch Calc, etc. Are any of those coming back in?
Could someone answer these two questions for me. Because I am sure kitchens are coming soon.
1. What is the advantage or disadvantage of putting a program in the Rom as opposed to adding it as a .cab install? Speed?
2. Say a newer program such as Live Search or S2U2, where new versions are coming out more often. Would those be better as an install or ROM. What happens when Microsoft Live is in a ROM and then they push a new version to you?
Thank you for answering these questions. Again thank you for this work !!!!!

this is my first with a rebuilt kitchen, those items are coming back, i just didnt realize they were missing until today
and putting programs in rom is nice when you have to do a hard reset, that way all your programs are already there but there are clean roms like DCD's that are bare bones, that way you can customize it exactly how you want it.
Thanks for that reply. The things that you put on are the things that I want anyway. I do not want anything stripped, the was boring and not anywhere as useful with out all of this.
So putting apps on the Rom has the only advantage of hard resets? They do not boot faster or operate faster?
Again, thanks so much!
Angel, keep up the awesome job. Great package man. You gotta make an AngelUpdate icon so we can subscribe to all your updates.

This was cooked using DCD 2.2.1 rom. I know there is a new ver. out I have had the
best results out of this rom as far as the memory leak goes. You will need the new
bootloader patch and radio for this to work.
I will be releasing the Kitchen shortly that I have been using to cook and test out
roms that I build. I will need people from other carriers to help out with the beta
testing if any one wants to helpout just send a pm.
There are way too many thanks to give, DCD, NUE,DogGuy, Angel,luv2chill,colonel, and
if there is any body else's oems that I may have used just let me know and I will be
sure to give you props to
ftp://ppcgeeks:[email protected]/Titan/Users/s10onn2o/VZW ROMS/Rom I use right Now.rar
I'm checking out the rom now ... doesn't seem to be affected by the refresh issues even though its 2.2.1.
Good job.
Thks, Im changing the pagepool alittle to see if i can get the internet to run alittle better and will be updating all the software. still need to test a couple of days mayby by sunday i should have a little bit better tweaked ver. up.
Also if any other carriers out there want to try this out I will change out the carrier files for you just let me know, Also keep in mind if all the bugs look like there are out for this I will up the kitchen I use with the carriers
thanks, i'll check this out. also would love to see your kitchen.
Man this rom is just running so fast on mine. I love it!! Thanks alot. All I really added was Inav, Flashlight,battery meter, and Seven Push mail to it. Works great.
Im glad it works for you, tonight i will put up another ver of this rom with a couple of reg edits, that should help out with gps finding sats. and a couple of other edits for the Internet.
My GPS works just fine. What will be the change? Also the main reason I like this rom is that the MMS works great.
Do you have the CAB for the battery meter? Thats the one thing I really am missing from my phone..
Well it's just the meter that goes on top Vista Hide Battery. you can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281690
glad to see you makin your own
also, dcd did get 4.2 mms workin on his 2.2.6 rom, if you havent tried it yet, check it.

Your kitchen works great! However, one problem.....whenever I receive text messages, I don't get the alert tone. The sliding sound is also not working. My profile is set to normal. Receiving a phone calls works fine. Any Ideas?
Love your kitchen!
huh what kitchen i have uped it yet do you mean rom?
Great work. I look forward to your Kitchen.
Hey s10onn2o, hows the new rom shaping up. I've really been enjoying your rom. Its interesting that the refresh bug that was in 2.2.1 isn't showing up in yours. Don't know what you did or are doing, but its working nicely.
I'm a fan, and cannot wait to see your next offering.

When i receive a text message, the phone will only vibrate. You can hear the speaker turn on, but it would not give the alert sound.....could it be the alert file i missing?
go under sound and notifaction settings and look there
UPDATE FOR NEW USERS: Please read the entire first two posts on this thread before asking questions. Many questions have been answered at the release of the ROM a couple months ago. I tired to keep the major questions updated below. If anything needs clarification from a newb perspective please PM. Its easy for ROM builders to take things for granted so I apologize if I left out anything pertient. Remember you will have to deal with Damager if you post a question that was answered here! I dont even want to do that ;c)
**Many thanks go out to Damager and bitserve for keeping up the thread! Ive been really busy lately. I have about 5 big or growing posts spanning two sites and three phones. Not to mention I have a real job too!
**Please dont be discouraged from participating, just read first ;c)

*START ORIGINAL POST*
Round 4 Reloaded highlights: (More info to include credits to follow later!!!)
+DCD 3.2.6 Base kitchen with base comm manager and base dialer. Upgrades included for a "Diamond" look if you so choose.
+ With or without ROM Pack and Themes.
You can choose Reloaded "Loaded Edition" or "Economy Edition" and of course a Kitchen is coming soon....
Loaded has everything you see to include the ROM pack and the extra themes.
Economy does not have the extra M2D themes nor the ROM pack.
Kitchen has everything of course.
+M2D "Scott's theme" by default. Older White Diamond and 11 more included. White Diamond was the predominate favorite before this one.
+HTC Album, HTC Audio Player, Google Maps 2.2.0.20 preinstalled and functioning with M2D. Tabs are disabled by default. Must enable them in M2DC (Customizer).
M2DC (Customizer) pre-installed and MUCH MUCH more stable than the previous builds.
+ROM pack. You get an installable ROM pack. It includes the following apps and will place the installer in a ROM Pack folder in My Documents. From there you can choose what to install if anything. The ROM pack includes:
All DCD Carriers
Matching Diamond Dialer and Com manager for "My Theme"(screen shots)
Older Touchflow finger scroll app
HTC X Button (Task Manager button)
Large Title Bar
Large Start Menu
VistaHide Battery gauge cabbed up by me
Memory
*M2D Enabled, Fresh Boot, Oxios Hibernate ran first - Free RAM: 21.99
*M2D Disabled, Fresh Boot, Oxios Hibernate ran first - Free RAM: 25.45
*Requirements:
+ NueSpl 2.47, olipro 2.40/ I reocmend the first as it is much easier to install.
+ Radio 2.3.3x or higher. Look at my sig block to see what I am running. What I run is what I prefer and recomend you run.
+ Working and hopefully prior exp in flashing custom ROMS. Many new flashers for the first time have followed the GA Medic link and uised it to flash the ROM. They all had great success. We can only help sop far so we recomend that new people research hard before flashing for the first time. If you have flashed to a custom GPS ROM already then this is no different. With all that being said.... What you do is your repsonsibility and not me or any memomber of theo forum or theo forum itself. We will however tryto help you as best we can and I have yet to say a flash go bad we couldnt fix in no time. Post your problems in the forum. Alot fo people with experience read it and answer some questions that are tough even for me ;C)
**You must install a DCD Carrier CAB which is included in the ROM Pack for all carriers before your data connection will work.
Pics:
1. Default theme for M2D
2. Added Dialer from the ROM pack, otherwise it will be stock DCD.
3. Added Comm manager from the ROM Pack, otherwise it will be stock DCD.

The only request is that you at least link to either my home page or the appropraite thread. This goes for my older series as well. This is of course if you post something on the internet.

Bugs and Fixes
Issue #1: Installing the Opal Comm Manager causes duplicate icons on the Connections Control Panel.
Fix: Install the attached cab instead. Its fixed. I removed the registry settings causing the duplicate icon.
Note: You can uninstall the old COM Manager and install this as a fix. You will not need to hard reset.

Tips Tricks and How To's - Updated 12 Nov 2008 at 11:00am
1. 12 Preloaded themes will keep you busy. You can easily switch between themes using the M2DC program. Its an excellent program that helped inspire me to do this ROM. Check out his page. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392
2. I attached the latest version of the customizer. Seems 100% compatible with the ROM. Use my repacked cab becuase the original wont install correctly with this ROM! Nothing to do with the app itself its how the ROM is built. My CAB installs to the ROM location and not the original location of the app. Dont worry, works great! Original: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392&highlight=manilla
3. Use the NEW ATTACHED customizer to utilize Internet Explorer instead of Opera!!!! Works GREAT!
4. Make your phone jump to the home screen whenever you choose. You can do this by remapping a soft button to the <Today> command. See my screenshot. I programmed the command to my Messaging button. Everytime I press messaging it returns to the home screen! Tight or what???
5. Change the default Softkeys on the Home screen. Use the customizer to do this. See my screenshots.
I added google adsense to my website. See this single post for the details ;c)

Kitchen is coming soon as well as the lite version. I just have to get them uplaoded. About 1/2 more hour.
Try the rom and tell me what you think for now... Something to do anyways untill the kitchen is up. I will Bump it from third upload to second.... Hang tight...
scott i realize you are busy tonight.
i'm one of the ones that asked for more "calendar room". I just noticed your "reloaded" and dcd 3.3.4 are out at the same time and noticed it this evening.
Do you ever think there will be any more calendar room available on the home tab where the clock doesn't take up so much room?
also...any other responses on battery drain?

Both ROMS just came out today.
As far as the calendar that is not within my ability at this time. The program is built to work the way it is. I cannot actually modify the core program itself. I can only tweak the themes and overhead it takes like most customizable apps. I have three fortune 500 companies for clients as a help desk manager. I understand your issues with seeing all your appointments. Have you ever thought setting a reminder an hour to 24 hours in advance? That might help? Trust me as soon as someone hacks this portion of the app I will be the first to incorporate it.
As far as the battery drain you are the only one reporting the issue. I dont know what to tell you on that. Try swapping back to a stock ROM and load up manila manually and run for a few days. Do some variations of such. Tell me how your battery is. Mine will go well more than 24 hours with this set up. Usually 36 to 48 before its dead.

Oh man.. What a tough tough decision to make. Try the 3.3.4 or go with your Reloaded... Hmm.. I hate decisions. Did you have any luck by replacing your kitchen xip with the os.nb.payload you dumped from 3.3.4?
Man.. if it was an easy change to 3.3.4 from 3.2.6 in your kitchen, I would be in heaven!!!
Thanks for the work!

IM working on it but not getting anywhere. May may have to wait untill DCD releases the new ktichen. Tweaking XIP's is not my thing (yet!). Tweaking OEMS and working kitchen files.... thats my thing!
BTW Is that where the XIP comes from and if so where do I put it?
awesome rom so far. still testing.
running smooth like crazy and everything is very fast. i'm loving your theme though. still customizing and getting back thngs.
btw is the kitchen 100% tonight? if so, i'll jsut test and fix everything when the kitchen is released
From what I understand, there shouldn't be any XIP tweaking needed. As DCD has mentioned, all you have to do is replace the os.nb.payload in your kitchen with the one dumped from the 3.3.4 tear down. Copy/Paste.

Hmmmmmm Interesting. I will mess with it later on this week. Waiting on feedback about this ROM first. See if there are any emergency fixes I need to do first.
Scott’s VZW ROM - Working VZ Navigator (eRice kitchen v1.03.7) - Rev 1 out!
UPDATE 19 DEC 2008 @ 18:00 Central Time. New ROM is out. Consider this thread discontinued. Files will be on the website for historical purposes. I would recomend upgrading to my latest ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=461524
UPDATED 12 Dec 2008 @ 19:00 Central Time
** You will need to dial *22899 after you flash to reprogram. Do this before anything else.
** Other model phones from other carriers will loose custom EPST settings per NexVision's testing.
REVISION 1 Changes at the end of this modified original post
This ROM IS FOR VZW USERS ONLY!
Greetings fellow VZW users. My first creation for us is Custom a ROM based off of eRice’s kitchen in this thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=46965.
ROM Info:
**The ROM I created is nearly identical to the “STOCK” ROM with a couple minor additions and an upgrade to the core CE OS files to version 5.2.20931. I pulled all the apps and drivers from the leaked VZW ROM in this into the eRice kitchen from this post: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42741
**I stripped out the Sprint drivers and applications from the eRice kitchen and added the VZW drivers and Apps from the VZW leaked ROM. It was fairly seamless to do. I tested VZ Nav and it worked great!
** This ROM is considerably more smooth than the stock ROM and more responsive in most applications including Touch Flow. No, it doesn’t fix our missing memory problem but I dont think you will notice it as much now. What makes it great is it is based on the 20931 CE OS but retains the 100% stock look via proper drivers and applications.
**VZ Navigator runs well on this ROM!
As far as I know this is the first “Custom” ROM with any sort of GPS for the XV6850.
**********************
*Revision One Changes*
**********************
Added N2A Weather Patch to Autoinstall. INcludes most US cities and patched weather server.
Added Diamond TF3D Config to Autoinstall (Runs with no errors)
Added Nue Fonts with a few extra fonts than what the OEM normally has. They look great on this screen!
Added Advanced Config 3.3
Added Turn off SMS Sent Notification - cabbed by "mixtapeking1900"
Added DotNET CF 2.0 along side DotNet 3.5. DotNet 2.0 installs first then ver 3.5 via Autoinstall (CONFIG.TXT in extended package OEM for the kitchen users.) I bieleve either could be removed but not truly sure. DotNet 3.5 was needed for Advanced Config.*Note - Selecting dotNet 3.5 in the KITCHEN will cause problems! Dont do it unless you proplery modify config.txt to not load them in the AutoRUN.
Removed IE 6.1 (Breaks My Button Setup!)
Removed JetPrint Bluetooth printing (whatever it is called, not sure)
Fixed My Button Settings not launching from the Settings Tab in Manila
Fixed Voice Command> I added it back in. Go to "Settings -> Voice Command" to turn it on before it will RUN!
Kept HTC YouTube
Kept HTC Network Plug in
Kept Internet Sharing
*All Three of these are from the eRice Kitchen. Big thanks to eRice for all 3!
No other installed programs than those listed and the VZW OEM apps.
The ROM is now pretty close to Stock which was the goal. This should be the last revision unless someone finds a major bug.
AS always, please report bugs and any thing you like as well.
Files located at www.scottcrosler.com
Mad Thanks go out to eRice, Commenex and ImCoKeMan for making this possible! Without them none of this would exist!
UPDATED 12 Dec 2008 @ 19:00 Central Time
Basic Installtion Instructions
Download ROM and extract to desktopp (Now includes RUU). Start the ROM Upgrade Utility and follow instructions Flashes just like ANY other phone or ROM. Flashing will destroy ALL data on phone. Always sync with ActiveSync before starting the upgrade utility OR place your phone in bootloader mode (Power, VolDown, and reset)
A call to *228 or *22899 (automated activation line) WILL BE REQUIRED for normal usage! This is true of ALL ROM's and even a simple hard reset of the Verizon stock ROM.
Before you flash you MUST be unlocked. I do not support the unlock process or the software but I can tell if you that if you follow the instructions at the link it works perfect.
Link to unlocker is here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42503
Link to ROM and RUU is here: http://www.scottcrosler.com/
Bugs so far:
Wiped Clean on new revision
**Here is where you will see gains with this ROM over stock...
1. Navigating through menu's, especially the settings menu.
2. Smoothness of TF3D (debateable depending on the tabs.) First time will be slow for EVERY device if you leave ALL the tabs enabled. Each tab is a like a sep app that has to load when you select it. After the tabs are loaded you will see even more gains over the stock ROM.
3. File explorer. Go to the Windows folder. No further explanation needed there, trust me. The stock file explorer took nearly 15 seconds to load Windows. This does it almost instantly.
Updated Kitchen Files!
This is for the eRICE KITCHEN. This is not my own Kitchen but an add on of VZW OEM files to the eRice kitchen.
Its the OEM pack that I used to create this ROM. Its what I stripped out of the VZW leaked ROM. I added just a couple OEMs that are not in the cooked ROM. I dont have the original OEM's broken out! IF anyone wants to break it down further like eRice did with his original kitchen let me know and I will host it on my site.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR KITCHEN SET UP:
Download and extract (to desktop) eRice 1.03.07 kitchen from here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42796
Delete the entire OEM folder from inside the kitchen!
Download and extract the VZW OEM folder from www.scottcrosler.com and place it in the eRice kitchen as to replace the one you just delted. I made one minor change to the pure VZW OEM folders.I dropped the phonecanvas XML provisioning file into OEM apps. i think it supposed to be in SYS but I dont know.... It works fine the way it is. If you have never heard of the file then ignore this part of the post.
Start RaphealKitchen.CMD and follow instructions.
***Do not select DotNET 3.5 in the kitchen!!!. It is enabled by default, delelect it. Will cause issues.
I will try to support the kitchen as much as possible. Please do not bother eRice with this hybrid kitchen as I am sure he will not support my hybrid creation.
Thank eRice for this kitchen.
Thank the original poster of this thread for the leaked ROM I worked with:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=42741. Not sure who posted it.
Thank me for putting it together!
I AM NOT TAKING CREDIT FOR ANY OF THE FILES. I do however take credit for converting to VZW OEM.
Should there be a link to your ROM here?
Are there instructions on how to flash?
Like putting phone into bootloader mode or anything else necessary?
Does the unlock process wipe the phone or does only the ROM update wipe?
Anyone tried this yet? Any reviews?
It's a lot of work to reinstall everything and to re-apply my special settings, even though I've been documenting what I've done.
Also, I was thinking of trying that Telus radio. Can I still try that on this? Does a radio update/change wipe the device clean or that's non-destructive?

I updated the second post with the steps you need. Sorry was trying not to get flamed on my thread. Someone over at PPCGeeks flamed me for pretty much no reason other than the fact that they could. It only stopped me from releasing my ROM over there. Oh well. There loss. Too bad because there are some really good people over there. The eRice kitchen was perfect in every aspect of a ktichen. I was never so impressed. Impressed enouhg to download the leaked ROM and portover the VZW software ;c) Its a nice change over the stock CE OS. If you flash let me knwo what you think.
Hi Scott,
I've been lurking on both forums since I got my Titan last December. I have learned much from everyone here and over at PPCG: these are the best resources by far for those of us into our phones and the tech behind it.
I agree that you were treated less than "professionally" over at PPCG, and hope that you will continue to work on the VZW TP/XV6850. Thanks for this great use of Eric's kitchen tools and stock ROM, along with your knowledge on how to get them all working for us! My take from the eRice thread is that he has no issue whatsoever with you using his stuff, and in fact he welcomes it for us VZW stepchildren... hehe.
This ROM does indeed kick arse, and hopefully GC and others will figure out the PRI lockdown and we will all have an amazing little machine to play with: it is w/o a doubt a much slicker device than the Titan, and I dug that little unit for the better part of a year
Cheers Pal

You know what Dude, that is all I needed for motivation! You verizon users have some serisou **** instore for you ;c) Thanks for the positive feedback! Im motivated again!
They will figure out the PRI crap. It will take time. I wish skywing would port over his adapter program. I could incormporate that and we would have 100% GPS just like everyone else. He stated in his thread he was not interested in doing so. Thats a huge loss for us that we never even had ;c(
For the record!
For the record:
I have always asked permission before I redistribute any item found here. I asked DCD for his kitchen when I posted my R4R ROM for the Titan's.
I asked eRice specifically if I could port his stuff over for VZW users. His response was:
"if you can get the sprint carrier files split from the rom/kitchen and include the vzw ones, more power to you. that's what this forum is about. sharing ideas and results and improving on them for the benefit of everyone."
Its posted here. Just for the record ;c)

A few people have tried on PPCGeeks with great success as posted above.
Keep it coming. Two things to note. And YES I Just installed this ROM.
First, I had to *228 (not surprised but it is required to get data connections to work. This has been true for every ROM i've played with as well as custom ROM's i've built in the kitchen.)
Second, Comm Manager is missing from the slider menu with TF3D enabled. (Although still accessible via the keyboard shortcut.)
I will play some more and let you know what else I find. Thanks.

The comm manager TAB or the comm manager link in the settings Tab? Its just fine for me. There is no Comm manager TAB in VZW version of TF3D.
I see you use the PPC Kitchen. That does have the Comm Manager Tab and you are used to that. This version is stragiht ripped from the ROM. No changes AT ALL. The stock phone doesnt have COmm manager Tab.
How about responsiveness?
Launching VZ Nav opened Opera and downloaded the CAB. CAB launched got to privacy screen but complained about not being able to save privacy settings. Only option is to lick OK. You are then brough tto the "default" VZ NAV error screen telling you there was a problem with your GPS device. I do have the CAB for VZ NAV now however.
Re-Launching VZ NAV produces the same result. Unable to save privacy and crashes out.
My mistake. You're right. I've gone through so many ROM's that it's a blur. The "Communications" link is still under the "Settings" tab in TF3D as it should be.
So far responsiveness is good. I have not configured the settings for my "regular" business use however.
Perhaps the reason VZ NAV will not install is because it's the official signed version?

No, It always crashes twice at the initial set up, even on the Stock ROM. Its a crappy program I know! Try it a third time and you are good from then on. If not let me know and I will upload the Cab that I have. Nothing special about it though.
EDIT: I relfashed my phone, installed and it worked for me. It still does the three times to load problem. Two GPS errors for me. Then the third time it starts. THis is the EXACT behavior of the stock ROM.
bkurek,
How do you "go through so many roms"? Isn't it an hour or more to reinstall all of your apps and personal settings or is there some easier way that I'm missing?
I can't restore with SPB Backup, right?
Would you say this rom is noticeably faster?

You MAY be able to restore with SPB back up. MAY being the keyword. You can always try it. It wont hurt anything. Worse case scenraio; Hard reset.
I will let bkurek answer the respoinsiveness question. Anything from me woudl be purely biased ;c)

That's true. Since it's basically the stock ROM, I might have a shot. I guess the one thing that might be a problem would be your IE6 update.

I go through them because I enjoy doing so and I'm looking for what *I* want. Yes it can be that long but I don't go through all the motions until I've found the right combination/foundation to build on. I did not for instance configure ALL of my email accounts or setup active synch in vista, etc etc
Yes it does feel very snappy but just like anything else you'll find it to be faster today and go back to *****ing about how slow it is tomorrow. It's a matter of perception in the end. You'll always want more. I'm actually more interested in a stable build than a faster one because I already know it'll never be as fast as I want it to be. I have experienced a myriad of stability issues that if I don't find a remedy for I will return this phone. They manifest mostly in the messaging components at this time. I have not had to soft reset a phone this much since 1990-something. Speaking of which, as a completely uninteresting side note, I have not posted to a forum since early 1990-something but the point is that I do like this device and would like to see it improved upon is why I am taking the time to post now. It’s a cool phone. Give it some time. Someone, somewhere will make it faster and more stable. I think.

Interesting. My stock did not have this problem but it came pre-loaded with VZ NAV. Third time is the charm.
Program files and things I don't want to lose always go to main for me.
If you do not mind testing/flashing and would like to try this ROM please do so.
Build 20771, TP2 TF3D and some other Rhodium apps. Can you please test Data, activesync, bluetooth, GPS and other basic functions. Please report back even if nothing is found.
Thanks!

For new people who may need some additional programs loaded up before using the ROM.
Cab file to install UC config setup on Storage Card. To be run before you flash. If you are a UC user just back up your cab storage folder and sdconfig.txt file. Or dont use it at all
Select Storage Card as install directory

A newer build...just want to make sure it is ready for general relase.
Installed, so far data and activesync look the goods. Ill test GPS etc over my lunch break.
Some different program icons...what do you think?
Same for me... Data, activesync, and basic functionality looking good so far. A couple of big pluses for me - memory use is only about 33%. It was above 50% on NRG's rom with TF3D 2 (that's not meant as any kind of negative towards NRG, I love his newest rom too, just a comment). And Weather Watcher works correctly. On all other cooked roms I've tried Weather Watcher appears "zoomed out".

Do you have new taskbar icons too? (hopefully I'm not being too greedy here).
I just flashed with this rom and checked the date. It said rom date is 03/14/09 was wondering maybe you just forgot to change the date?
thanks
A small problem (with a solution). You can't add file explorer as a favorite anywhere in the first two rows of favorites. Or more acurately, you can add it, but it won't launch. The solution is explained in post #500 here:

Try my icon pack I posted a few rows up and it should work without the fix.
Thanks for the solution but it may not be needed with the icon pack.
Please report back.
Thanks!
Yes the date was not changed.
If you are talking about my status icons I may have them done before this build is officially released. If not I will have an add on pack when this is officially released.
Thanks for all the help.
Just flashed your new test ROM. One stupid question - how does the GSensor work? Also the default keyboard does not seem to be of Fuze - guess I need to install the fuze keyboard cab from your other thread.

Go to tools...and in there is a nifty little app to change it.
Not sure what you mean how it works. I believe it is there for apps that use so they can auto rotate.

Regarding the GSensor thing, I was expecting "it is there for apps that use so they can auto rotate" but it is not working for all of the apps. it works for the calculator program but so far calculator is the only program that rotates as it should. I wish my Garmin XT would rotate .. is there any whitelist thing where I need to enter the information of Garmin XT ?
I will keep on testing this ROM and update.

I'd love to install this ROM and give it a go, however I really need/use Ms Voice Command and WorldCard Mobile from the stock ATT Fuze rom. I know youve taken VC out of your previous roms, if these are not included in this rom either, would it be possible for you to cab these up as post installs?

You can use the G-Config program to add programs to the whitelist, available here. Makes adding applications a breeze, hit add new app, open the app and put the stylus in and reset. Works real nice with tf3d too

Has what you asked for.
Thanks a ton man
Downloading it now..
First impressions, very fast, quickly syncing with my Exchange, no flaws found im my first couple of minutes playing with it.
Was hoping to see the new start menu (the unpopular one, is seems, but the new one) and it wasn't there...is there a fix or cab to have that?
Thanks for allowing the preview to this tight rom!!!!! will get more details and will edit this post if bugs are found
Jholton
Can it be? Is mr. dcd1182 back from the dead?
My Touch PRO has been waiting it's whole life for a dcd rom, i searched but didn't find anything about this goodie!!!!!!!!!Anyone have a clue about anything about it?
It looks like it was uploaded 5-22-09
It also has a PagePool of only 6Mb, is this a verizon rom? I'm afraid to flash my Sprint TP not knowing anything else
*edit, if you need instructions follow my post on ppcgeeks, seems like more people are trying it out over there
Back when i had my Titan i would run DCD all the time and loved his work enough to donate. right now i'm running Mightymike 4.16 and have been looking to flash another rom. perfect timing.
DCD, thanks for making the move to the Touch Pro.
for those looking for HTC task manager, i'm using the one below. also DCD used GfxBoost in .92, but i didn't see it in .96 or later builds so i included it also.
whoa, it must be really really stripped. it's only 64 mb?

His site is public. If he doesn't want to share it, then he needs to change the website/ftp settings. As far as I know, he hasn't officially "released" it yet. No announcements from him. I tried it, but the mobile internet wasn't working consistently, so I had to go back to mightyrom.
ROM is very fast and stable and data worked fine for me on Sprint. However, the phone would not ring on incoming calls. I checked all the settings I could think of and vibrate works fine but no ring. Flashing to another ROM only because of that. Bummer...
for some strange reason my data goes in and out. i can't seem to track down the cause yet. i'll mess around with it some more. also DCD is using a different build of opera mobile then i'm used to. i just loaded up the newest build i could find and all was well
Edit: here's a link to the opera i used. it's pretty new
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=940117&postcount=88
Wish List!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just my 2 cents so here we go.
I would like to see the this rom include:
1. Full qwerty keyboard.
2. Ability to turn of flashing light on new txt, email, etc.
3. Random access added
4. On people tab add ability to contact via txt, email or call as only has ability to call now! BOO
5. When viewing txt, email, etc. from said tab, mark items as read removing new count number, without having to launch said app.
thanks in advance!
.96
There's a .96 .exe in the link now......time to flash..
Nate
there are (I think) two apps that are vital for this rom to work great: HTC task manager and GfxBoost. Anyone interested in this rom should us these.
very fast rom...i think faster than yay4jugg which i was using for a few months now.
just needs pagepool changed
opera is set as default. how do i disable it or remove opera.
also noticable fast battery drain.
works on sprint. just need the sprint cab.
DCD has 1.02 up now
This is not at popular as the thread over on ppcgeeks, but there still might be some people that have not seen this yet and that would be a shame.
DCD just posted 1.09. i'm running 1.08 and it's one of the best Pro roms out there. give it a try.
