Please make sure that your device is cid and sim unlocked before installing the rom - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...80#post1354180 Also put your device into bootloader manually by pressing the camera button and softreset at the same time
Ok first I just want to say thanks to eaglesteve for helping me test new BT stacks however, I was unable to get a bt stack that would do file transfer to and from phone or laptop and still have it work for bt headsets. I should point out that the bt stack that is in there does work just not for everything some of the files are from the diamond and some are from ap4 and I personally have tested using BT headphones, BT mouse and BT keyboard all at the same time and it works pretty well. I also want to thank ervius for helping me with xip porting and to cmonex for helping with anything I needed help with and thanks to Anunnaki for the animated startup and anyone else I forgot about
I added new splash screens that are in line with the startup theme from my last rom, hope u guys like as I did it myself
Ultra Vanilla: build 19521.1.1.0
added total commander over file explorer
removed stuff from cpl reg
added custsk to config.txt
fixed welcomehead startup
switched band to auto
changed quickgps reg settings to 7 days
changed default phone skin
enabled autotimezone
added tcpmp and all plugins in place of wmp
added easy config for wimp with hardrest option (will be explained in download folder)
Of course this is a uc compliant rom if you are unfamiliar with this then click on the link to find out how to make a sdconfig.txt file so all your apps are loaded automatically http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366337
I have removed about 22mb of stuff but I kept all the reg settings and intflashfiles.dat settings also. So if you want to add any of that stuff back into the rom just copy it to your device and it should work.
There are no screen shots as this is Ultra Vanilla so there is not much to show off

incredible!!!
thanks for sharing.
do you know about registry editor from total commander? Looks is not included
looks the button assignation for networks is lost (right side, over power button)and commmgr.exe is not present
Irus,
I just installed it and have the following questions/concerns:
1. I can't find comm manager so I can't turn on wifi.
2. My previous taxis/irus rom did not have any keyboards installed and I liked that about ultra-lite.
3. no real vga to alter dpi (can I install this separately?).

different people use different comm managers so i left it out
i kept default keyboard so people could choose their own
you can install that yourself
Ok.
Could you (or someone) point me to a comm manager and the realvga software to download.
Thanks!

GPS is good this time. Cold fix took 1 minutes and 44 seconds outdoor under clear blue sky. The same spot that I stood when I tested the Chinese ROM, which incidentally took more than 6 minutes. But Sprite Terminator still does not work. I think it does not work in WM6.1 period. With Wm6.0 it works.
Noticed an error when trying to navigate to bluetooth folder.
Also, it is strange that a number of my application acquired a generic icon for the application rather than the proper icon. Does anyone else have this problem? Edit: icon appeared after a soft reset.
Still installing application, but it feels fast. I think you have a winner here.

to be honest i noticed better gps fix but i thought it might be tomtom7 as i got a cold fix in under 5 min from in my house and did not use quickgps. so glad to here its not just me. also i know about BT problem i was trying to get the ms stack and the other stack that you tried that worked on file transfers, to coexist but no luck. glad you like it
Truly admire your passion, will only possible to test your latest on week-end.
irus,
I thought you had WIMP cooked in, but can't seem to find it.
Your spalsh screen is nice. The only thing I'm uncomfortable is the fact that you advertise to the potential thief how to do hard and soft reset. I'd rather that info be extremely difficult for the thief to obtain.
Cheers.
I wonder if it is just me. I noticed that occasionally the device seems to refuse to reflesh /update the screen, showing completely wrong info and image. For example, the icon of application often does not get instantly updated after an installation. When I was using my eWallet, when I click on the Field tab, it is not showing the screen for that but from whatever was left behind just before this. Some strange behaviour.
There is something strange with some drivers i think.. TT6 (i've installed the common application for anu LITE rom) screen refresh is very slow, changing menus I see a "fading" slow effect and a sloooow refresh rate. (you used net cf 3.5 right?)
Other suggestion
1)I will suggest to remove customer experience
2) Default sounds aren't working
3) too many SIP, they waste resources and memory

I think so too. The refreshing of screen is not functioning normally.
Anyone having problem setting up email accounts and connecting to them? I took several attempts before I managed to set up email account. It did not see the service provider I had set up before. My service provider was strangely not on the pull down list when I tried setting it up manually. Later, after it was set up, attempt to download mail results in something to the effect of invalid settings for connection.

Okay, I've decided to start this thread with the intention of collecting specific, practical, and working ideas on how to make this ROM a real speed demon.
Currently, my device is really fast, not just fast. I'm using 192dpi with Spb Mobile Shell and Diamond Interace skin, and every single click produces instant response. My TomTom 7 loading is also much faster (faster in portrait than landscape though) .The tweaks that I have performed however, is suitable only for the way I use the device, so not all ideas will be applicable to everyone.
Requirements:
==========
For start, let me say that my requirements are as follows:
- I do not use bluetooth headset, or bluetooh gps. I only use it for file transfer purposes to/from PC and to/from other phones.
- I do not want auto-rotate. That drives me crazy. I only want it done with my user assigned hardware button. However, I do want to use the sensor applications such as the bubble level. I use this to figure out the slope on my golf putting green, as a example of its use. (It's cheating in golf rule BTW, but I use it only for practice purposes, not during Competition)
- I want to manually initiate the QuickGPS data download, not automatically, and I do not wish to be reminded if it "expires".
- I do not use the sub-display or carry hardware keyboard
- I do not use the HTC TouchFLO, as I think that FtouchSL works much better. Just remember to exclude application such as Opera, Resco File explorer so that you don't end up having the half freezing effect.
- I do not use Windows Live, as I'm not in US or England
Tool needed
=========
You need to install FDCSOFT Task Manager to manage the services.
The idea
=======
To disable all unused services which requires loading as well as resources to run on a continula basis.
What services have I disabled?
======================
1. SubDisplay(SDM0)- this is only needed if I use keyboard and I want the subdisplay to work.
2. HTC Sensor Service (Athena)(SEN1: ) this is only needed if I want the device to auto-rotate globally. If I want it to rotate only for specific applications, I still can disable this if I use the SKKV GSensor application..
3. Windows Live (WLM0). I don't use this software, so why let this service run all the time?
4. Bluetooth Audio Gateway (BAG0) I think I only need it if I'm using bluetooth headset but not sure. Those of you with BT headset might want to see if the headset still works if this is disabled.
5. Bluetooth HID Loader (BHL0) I was surprise that all file transfer still works with this disabled.
6. Certificate Enroll Engine (CES0) Not sure what the function is, but my device works okay without it. May be those who connect to the corporate server might need this,
7. Credential Manager (CRD0) Same comment as for item 6.
Set as Manual:
===========
QuickGPS app service (Stop, and set manual).
Currently my File system cache is enabled with cache size of 8MB. My File System filter cache is 4096 sectors and Glyth cache is 64KB. However, I really do no know what is the most optimal setting here. Perhaps someone who has played around and experimented more than myself would improve on this.
In addition, go to the Proccess tab and terminate the following processes:
- BioTouch.exe
- SAPSettings.exe
These two items will come back after each soft reset, so you need to do each again. Anyone knows how to more permanently disable these, please let me know.
Today plugings:
===========
If you're using SPB mobile shell, you should be able to do away with almost all other plugins. I just tick the Home Tab in Today Item selection screen, and pin my most frequently used applications there. I might also place my news feed there later. With spb mobile shell, I now basically have the entire today screen vacant for just these two plugins. Before this, my iLauncher, sbsh weather, spb time, spb phone suite used to take a while to load up after each soft reset. Now, I no longer use iLauncher, SPB time, SBSH weather, SPB Phone suite. Spb mobile shell takes far less resources and loads, loads much faster, and works more quicly than having those four plugins. Part of my continual improvement process I guess to move on.
At present the VGA skin for SPB Mobile shell could not be said to be as attractive as those availabel to the QVGA users. Hopefully this will change.
Radio

I'm using 1.58. I do really think that there is a noticeable improvement in data connection speed using this version.
Let's use this thread to collect all the ideas specific to the Sogarth Base ROM
Cheers.
1) Disable SAPsettings too unless you have a car BT and you want to access the SIM data (SAP=Sim Access Profile)
2) Install NETCF3.5 using modaco tools NETCFCFG and NETCFv35 cab. You still have the 2.0 and level will work PLUS the 3.5 version to speed up some other appz
BioTouch
Hi EagleSteve,
This post is great idea. This lets us collect and verify all the possible tweeks which we need very much, as this ROM is great, but needs proper set of settings.
About BioTouch, I think it belongs to TouchFlo. I did not instal it (I run Irus Vanilla flavour of Sogarth's rom and FTouchSL as well) and I do not have BioTouch on my list of processes.
It is funy, I also did not install SubDisplay staff, but I have it on list of services, but in stoped state. To be sure I disabled it.
I wonder what about TaskManager(TMX0) and EnlargeStartMenu(EMX0). Both of them I have in stopped state. I do not use TaskManager, as I use WKTask, so mayby I could disable it as well.
I also do not use EnlargeStartManu, but I remember that once Sogarth said that some other apps or services relay on EnlargeStartmenu, so I am afraid to disable it. Any clues?
By the way my, battery status shows up in 10% steps. I think I have ommited something while installing Irus addons. I wonder what could that be.

Odd. The Subdisplay service should be defined in X7510_Subdisplay, so if you removed that, the service shouldn't be there either. It's definitely not in my list, and I removed X7510_Subdisplay.

You're correct that the HTC Task Manager depends on the TaskManager service. Removing PACKAGE_Diamond_TaskManager and PACKAGE_Diamond_TaskManager_0409 will remove that service from the list. Also, EnlargeStartMenu isn't needed - I think you're remembering when I mentioned Diamond_LargeTitleBar (and the corresponding LargeTitleBar/AP21 service), which is notably more useful.

I TaskManager is the tool you use to view the services is'nt it?
Enlagestartmenu could be safely disabled AFAIK,but personally I like it. I do not like the enlaged bottom menu text, but I like the enlaged text for the task bar. Anyway, don't be afraid to stop it and see what happens. If it does not have any ill effect, then go ahead to disable it.
Now that you mentioned it. I thought battery could change in 1% increment in WM6.1 so I also wonder why this changes in 10% increment. That does not bother me however.

HTC Task Manager is too limiting in functionality, which is why we're using FdcSoft Task Manager. I suppose I would go ahead to remove that.
Edit: Actually I do not have any task manager service in my list. I think this is because I had already gone into Start/Settings/System/Task Manager (the white one, not the dark one) and under button tab, I uncheck the Enable Quick Meu on today screen.
Sogarth, from end user's perspective, what is the difference between EnlargeStartMenu and LargeTitleBar? That information is needed before I go ahead to change it and do the correct enabling/disabling.

My understanding is that EnlargeStartMenu gets you the oversized start menu and menus. LargeTitleBar gets you the status bar "magnification" (where the entire screen gets filled with whatever notifications you have).

So, enlarge menu is for the top part of the screen, while large title bar is for the bottom?
I hate big text at the bottom. It makes it necessary for me to scroll my menu items, and mess up the text in a number of applications.
Okay, I now know what the Large Title bar is. It is the guy that gives you the full screen (with the title System Status) with the Data Conncetion Icon, Phone Signal Icon, and Volume Icon when you click on these otherwise small icons on the task bar. Okay, it is useful.

I can terminate the SAPsettings.exe under process, but it comes back after each soft reset. Anyway to avoid having to do it repeatedly?
Did'nt realise that we're only having NETCF2.0. Will get this updated too. Thanks for the tip.

EnlargeStartMenu enlarges the Start Menu and all other menus (including the ones in, say, Resco Explorer). LargeTitleBar only affects the notification icons, I believe. For example, if you tap on your signal icon, does it come up with a black screen labelled "System Status", with magnified versions of all of your other notification icons? That's LargeTitleBar.

Thanks. Removed. Don't have a bluetooth car phone. Even if I have it, it would not make sense to use it. Athena is already a good speakphone.
What about the biotouch? I regret having installed it since if I ever want auto-rotate I could use SKKV Gsensor. Where is the registry entry to remove in order to get this service out of the system for good?
Edit: found this folder: HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch. Can I delete the entire key? Will it inadvertantly remove also the component needed to run BubbleLevel and the other sensor based program?

BioTouch is for TouchFLO. To completely disable TouchFLO, you should be able to disable the SmartTouch service. Unfortunately, I'm actually not sure where Biotouch.exe gets started from. I'm looking right now, though....

Yes it has NETCF 3.5, and some applications could have problems. I prefer to have BOTH using the modaco tool to have the full compatibility

I've seen lots of conflicting information about filesystem caching. Thing is, according to Microsoft, all of the numbers you think you're changing either do nothing (since the values are actually loaded in XIP), or the numbers only affect SD cards (post from April 13, 2006 2:13 PM).
Now... that being said... guess what? We can muck around with the XIP ourselves! So maybe that would be an interesting option....
SmartTouch service
Can anybody tell something about SmartTouch. Is it with TouchFlo, so if this is not used then we could disable SmarttToch as well?
Edit:
Sorry, didn't noticed previous posts.

Maybe this is my problem with AgePhone and it's crackling sound in this rom. I believe in Irus Full, there was .NETCF 2.0 and I installed NetCF3.5 afterwards. Mayby this AgePhone uses 2.0? This means I should go back to kitchen and try to cook my version of Vanilla wit Necf2.0 and then install all the rest from Irus addons.
I wonder if I can omit this endless customization loop, as my first attempt ended up with it so I dropped it and went to Irus version, only to find out that it was there as well. Maybe it was not in the rom, but in my extended rom. I've opened it and found some config.txt with cabs to install. I think they are from my original HTC rom 6.0, but am not sure.

If this is the case, it would mean there is no point playing with the pagepool size, right? Might as well have 0 MB pagepool like what irus is doing with his latest ROM.
Victoria, Agee Phone works
I just found that they have new version, 2.62. I installed it and it works well. Great. so now I can stay on this rom at last, as all the other things seem to be solved.
Edit:
wuuu. It is not working on 3G/HDSPA. It only works well on WiFi. It is strange, becouse my office is connected to internet through HDSPA dongle. It means that some network settings in this rom make VoIP connection such a poor one. I have to further investigate.
Well I finally have my new device and it looks like i might have a little time this weekend to make an update and fix some minor bugs in my rom. please post suggestions here. All suggestions need to be in my friday midnight EST. thanks
How about making these changes to your last ROM?
- 16mb page pool to see if it goes a little faster.
- Do not auto download the quick gps data during the setting phase, since the device does not have time and data connection yet at that phase.
- update the large menu text cab so that it works. I had to look for the cab elsewhere last time.'
- Focus on speed.
- Keep it ultra vanilla. This is your number one selling point for me. I don't want all third party application to be chosen by myself and not seeing duplicated application/old versions/unused application.
- Make sure it is spl1.2. Do not want to lose memory for useless applications.
- If you intent to use newer built (Are you thinking of Touch Pro?), make sure it still supports Gsen application, and has random access for contact application. I personally love these two features.
- Make sure it has no htc touchflo or Ftouchflo. Have Ftouchflosl trial version if you wish. Else leave it for user to decide.
- Again, leaveb out realVGA. Some of us don't use it anymore.
- Continue to leave out HTC Home, and have just one theme. HTC Home They are all add ons.
- An important bug to fix is its inabikity to delete POP3 mails. Currently I can only delete non-POP3 mail, but for my pop3 mail, I'm forced to sign into the web-mail to delete them to prevent mail-box overflow. This is a pain.
Frankly, I'm still so happy with your last ROM, although I feel the speed could be further improved. So if there is only one change, let there be just speed improvement.
Thanks irus. I look forward to your fantastic ROM.
I'm now using Michy's rom whose main merits are speed and stability, but I like your Gsen function very much. I hope you can integrate the above-mentioned features in your new rom.
I would suggest no changing from your latest rom which I think is perfect, only bugfixes.
Changing could be for a newer release while I think your last one deserves just a trimming to be a reference rom. (I can't download full messages from the mail program???)
I would say fix the known bugs, increase speed if possible. After releasing that version, you can spend sometime looking at other possibilities (lite version, other builds or base, new features, etc...).
The lite / vanilla builds never actually worked in the long run for me because it always seemed something was missing which caused other applications not to work properly. They always seemed fast and potentially stable for a few weeks. After installing my apps and heavy usage, it always seemed to have gone down hill. Nonetheless, a lot PPL here love them.
It is also very important that auto rotate, gsen, and other features continue to work because I believe a lot of PPL stuck with this base because that stuff work well with on this ROM.
I never tried your rom mainly because I had the impression it was missing MMS. I know it is fairly easy to install myself, but I hadn't time to look for a proper version.
If your rom contains MMS, then forget about this post
Yes! also mms. I would consider the missing of it nearly a bug to be fixed as it is a standard feature of the athena missing... It is true that most of us don't use mms, but just in case...
ok these are all good suggestions, i will keep them in mind
I currently use your FULL ROM/3.5 and find it to be excellent. I hope you will NOT include any real VGA additions. Every one of them I have tried so far causes display problems with my "must use" apps.
Thanks for all your hard work.
I've tested All Athena ROM available.
I am using now the Sogarth base, isn't the fastest, isn't the most complete, but it is stable, has gsensor, big htc home, audio player doesn't stop working in suspend mode, index bar in contacts, battery life is great WITH BT enabled and some diamond enhancements.
The probem is ... it has to be tweaked
.net35 AND net2.0 to have compatibility with older and newest applications (modaco netcf config), some registry tweaks to improve the speed , michy's sound enhancement are much better, athena sensor service has to be stopped, IMHO are needed:
1) a newest remote desktop,
2) wifirouter (ori ICS control) ,
3) schaps advanced config ,
4) moblue,
5) total commander,
6) irus fsplayer,
7) pocketrar,
8) omnia d3d drivers,
9) Gsen,
10) wkTask (HTC Xbutton removed),
11) cyberon voice dial
12) I need mms too
I don't need realvga, the applications I like could use VGA resolution without realvga! Last, but not least, having and athena ROM CLOSER to diamond ROM should be easy to have compatibility with diamond and raphael applications (the most "developed" HTC model)
I strongly suggest a newest Sogarth, not "Extreme" but improved one (SPL 3.5). and "Extreme Sogarth" lite SPL 1.2 and 3.5 tweaked for maximum speed

If you don't , could you ask michyprima for his ap to access this .
It is called "Addins"

I think that app is good but only if you have the loop problem as all my roms are uc compliant, which is the same thing just launches from the sd card not ext rom.
my 2cents: irus in your knew rom maybe you can focus on a new build and speed speed speed.

I haven't used the uc app.
does it allow you to choose what you install , or does it install everything in the list?

it installs everything in the sdconfig.txt file but if you don't want something just delete that line of text. when i release my next version i will put a template of sdconfig.txt but this will only work for people without the loop problem.
Suggessions
Hi Irus,
What about the following:
1- Fnger touch
2- More diamnod drivers, graphics & functions like in ap5
3- check this link and sea if we can avail such functions http://www.touchxperience.com/
Cheers

How to Flash this ROM
If you don't know what is HardSPL, STOP! You need to read this before you continue. This ROM is only for GSM devices. For CDMA ROMs, look here.
I release my ROM in flashable microSD format, mainly because:
To prevent newbies just running an .exe file without knowing what it is
Less space in the compress release
microSD flashing is the SAFEST way to flash.
Can't wait? on to flashing!
What You Need
Zip or 7zip extractor for the compress file. You can download 7zip here
USB cable if flashing from ActiveSync
CustomRUU Wrapper (download it here) if flashing from ActiveSync
microSD formatted to FAT32 if flashing via (micro)SD method
Flashing via ActiveSync
- Make sure your battery level is above 50%, or the flash will not continue!
- BACKUP ALL THE CONTACTS/FILES YOU NEED!
extract RAPHIMG.NBH from the compressed file, rename it to RUU_Signed.nbh
put the RUU_Signed.nbh on the location where you've put the CustomRUU Wrapper.
Connect your Touch Pro/Fuze to your PC via USB cable.
ActiveSync should run and connect your device. Wait for the icon to turn GREEN.
Run the Custom RUU Wrapper and follow the steps on the screen
Flashing via (micro)SD Method
- Make sure your microSD card is formatted to FAT32, or else your Touch Pro/Fuze won't detect the file.
- at least have around 40% of battery. I've done it with 23%, but just to be safe, make sure you have enough juice left
- BACKUP ALL THE CONTACTS/FILES YOU NEED!
extract RAPHIMG.NBH from the compressed file and put it to your SD
Do a HARD RESET
with your stylus, press the RESET button while holding down the VOLUMN DOWN button and ENTER button. It should go to diagnostics (rainbow screen) mode.
release the RESET button, but continue holding the VOLUMN DOWN and ENTER button until you see "This operation will delete all your personal data..."
press VOLUME UP button to hard reset.
while resetting, press VOLUMN DOWN button to go back to diagnostics (rainbow screen) mode.
if done correctly and your microSD is formatted to FAT32, it should say "Loading..." or else you will just see the rainbow screen.
Press POWER button to flash your ROM and wait for it to finish. DO NOT REMOVE YOUR BATTERY!
When the flash finishes, press the RESET button. DONE!
UC Ready ROM
- this ROM is UC ready. What is UC? Check it here.
- NOTE TO NAVIGON USERS: If you are using your Navigon SD to flash and setup UC, you need to rename the 2577 directory first otherwise UC will not work correctly (thanks urys)
For AT&T Fuze Users
- screwed hardware keyboard? Download the fix below (see post attachment) or download it here
- to setup your connection problems:
Download AllTheWay's AT&T Settings Cab from here (Thanks AllTheWay)
On Start->Settings->Tab "Connections"->Connections->Manage Existing Connections->Tab "Proxy Settings", uncheck "This network uses a proxy server to connect to internet"
On Start->Settings->Tab "Connections"->Connections->Tab "Advanced"->Select Network, change both pulldowns to "Media Net" (Thanks Reefermattness)
If you still have some problems (weather in TouchFlo3d not updating), try this (thanks AlienHairball):
On Start->Settings->Tab "Connections"->Connections->Tab "Advanced"->Select Network, change both pulldowns to "My ISP"
if you edit "My ISP" make sure it's on "Auto" instead instead of either "My ISP GPRS" or "ATT GPRS"
On Start->Settings->Tab "Connections"->Advanced Network->Tab "HSDPA/HSUPA"->make sure that "Enable HSDPA/HSUPA" is set

-reserved another one don't reply yet!-
I know, I know, I'm supposed to quit-- but the new base is soo tempting to cook
PRIVATE BETA for the moment. I want to hear first from the users of my ROM before (you know who you are and I know who you are, send me the pm for the link!).
Let's keep this thread clean and learn from mcmexican's post.
Canadian users, I've removed the rilphone mod for a while, sorry. I need to know if it will work with this one (reg entries not enabled yet). If not, then I'll cook it in again if there are no difference in call quality.
PRIVATE BETA 2 Link : MediaFire. Same password as BETA 1. Changes from BETA 1 are:
Changed Opera to a new build (15545) as the other one has a duplicate launch bug
Added zoom in Opera from g2tl
changed GPS settings and drivers
changed video drivers
changed some service loading timings
removed Butler
(I forgot) removed YouTube link in Internet Tab
This will be the release (plus cleaning of Windows, still lots of files to remove) for 4.00. I'm still considering releasing a loaded ROM, what's in my head right now is:
dotFred's Task Manager
Butler or dredSensor
Music ID
PIM BackUp
Diamond Tweak or Config
MortPlayer
Adobe Acrobat
wMRegOptimizer
still considering:
Worldcard Mobile
RSS Hub
Sprite Backup
What do you guys think?

Hi sabre,good to see you cook a new rom again.
A question: is it based on the new 'official' htc rom floating around here?,if yes,do you have also that bug from youtube app?
When i am trying lower the volume it does not work,with and without headphone
It stays on high volume .
And if you need a tester i am willing to help if you can use that (i am rom flash addict)
no pointless posts in this thread.
no - im downloading now...
no - this rom is amazing....
no - rza i love you
NO POINTLESS POSTS IN THIS THREAD.
consider yourselves warned!
edit: side note....feel free to tell me how much you love me. It makes me glow

I can't tell you since I didn't cook the YouTube app from the latest Raph ROM yet, I need to modify it again to clean the installation from \Windows.
For the testers Butler is modified and cooked in this ROM thanks to siggie1970. Currently swipe launcher is the only one enabled (swipe up and down on the left and right side of the capacitor sensor and you'll know). I'll be updating the Butler source code and put it on the next BETA build. Check out HKLM\Software\Butler for more settings
EDIT: and I'm only planning to implement the app launcher and the sip changer from Butler-- the face down lock I would imagine a lot of people would be annoyed (example is when reading in your bed)
i use to be a big tester over in the kaiser community til my usb port stopped working, and as of 2 weeks ago i've been a happy fuze owner, i'm willing to test this rom.
RZA still makes some of the dopest beats!
-Anyways, the ROM passes my utterly useless test of GBA emulation--good framerate, no irrecoverable crash after a soft-reset (triggered when kfortouchpro isn't set to default).
-YouTube works fine, although HTC really needs to release some significant updates so the videos don't play at 10fps.
-Email and SMS work well without any noticeable bugs (i.e. nothing weird happened so far).
-Fixed Opera is a bit of problem. It has to do with the build, rather than your ROM. When launched from tf3d, it opens up with 2 tabs, whereas buttler-launch would have one tab. It lacks the zoom slider, which can be enabled with a reg tweak (but I forgot what it was). I personally like the transparent skin that someone implemented for 15202, so maybe if you could look into that, that'd be great. If I get a chance to, I'll test the skin.zip on the new version.
-Butler is great, but I found myself accidentally launching apps too often. You should try dredsensor, which does a lot of interest things. With dredsensor, I'm able to use PIE and Opera Mini in full screen mode by assigning the home and back buttons as left and right softkey. I also set long-clicks to launch stuff, which means I rarely (never, so far) launch anything accidentally.
All that is without my customizations (sdconfig.txt). So I'll report further if I see any incompatibility problems with the apps I use.
[Edit]
SDAutorun.exe doesn't initiate automatically.
[Edit 2]
I solved the Opera problem. Apply the provxml and use the skin included. Too lazy to make a cab file
So far...
-seems faster to restart and boot up
-after quick gps, Gpstest took approx 1 min to get a 3D lock
-TomTom nav 7 lags approx 1 to 2 seconds approx 50% of the time, but is dead on accurate the other 50%
-Only had one small instance where I was typing a new sms and it booted me out of it and into the inbox (where it then brings up the quick menu instructions) and it put the message I was typing in in 'drafts'
-I like having Butler integrated! Never used it before and if it was installed in 3.01 I didn't realize it.
-I prefer the black dialer
I like it so far...seems faster overall. I flashed from sd card. Using quartz radio. I'll report back after more testing.
Thanks pfcsabre
ROM
my setup
FUZE, Radio quartz 1.11.25.01 (Radio that ships with the 5.05.405.1)
First played with base setup, no installed apps
could not break it/find any bugs, GPS fix was <1min, battery drain normal, no major memory leak, all base functions (incl landscape typing) working, GPS accurate, generally fast and responsive, only issue has been Opera opening two tabs when opened.
Then loaded it out
1. Adv config
2. Diamond/Tf3d tweak
3. Diamond TV
4. Starplayer
5. Resco Radio
6. Skyfire (8154)
7. PCMkeyboard
8. Yota Contacts/Dialer (TF3d skin)
9. GekoCal
10. Navipanel
11. HTC Zip
12. RSS
13. HTC footprints
14. SoftKey Manager
15. BCR worldcard
16. Adobe Le
17. Arcade
18. S2u2 1.42 TP skin
19. Finger Menu
20. TP Super Arcade
Did not experience any bugs, all apps functioned properly, a few things I noticed.
yota dialer was unresponsive to a phone button press on the stock ROM5.05.405.1 (periodically dialer would not load if phone button was pressed), on this ROM it functions fine.
You went to the small ezinput, I couldn't get the ST keyboard installed (it would install but bottom half of the keyboard graphics would be messed up). This occurs on pretty much every rom with the smaller ezinput (at least that I have tried), any chance you would go back to large ezinput?
v4.00 PRIVATE BETA
Hi, nice to see you back again!
Running the v4.0 for about 5 houres and it seems very stable. Noticed the following:
- SDConfig does not initiate autonatically
- Video drivers seem to be slower than v 3.01. Used the coreplayer in both of them and the Benchmark that includes gives 159.72% for V4.0 and 185.44 for v 3.01.
Still testing!
seems 5.05 graphics drivers are not up to it... thanks gikoz
let me try the opera fix g2tl-- I initially tought the problem was from the new manila as launching opera via Butler is working fine. And, you can set the sensitivity of Butler so you won't be launching apps too often
The black skin will be on the final release, I'm just lazy to put it right now.
EzInput will be the small one as I checked most keyboard cab that is available is working on this release. EzInput and XT9 will be cleaned again to WWE for the final release.
Anything else? I'll cook the fix and put the link of the next build if it's ok.

I was pretty sure the multi-tab bug was fixed, but after a few resets and installs, it's back
At least the zoom slider is there, and the buttons are half-transparent
Btw, I'm pretty sure it's not the newer manila that causes this, as 15202 doesn't have that issue.
Unless you come out with some major fixes, I'll probably stay with this beta.
Oh, one thing I did have problem with is sprite backup. I had to disable tf3d for the backup process to go through. Even so, the devices freezes on the reset after the backup. Another reset solves the problem though. Oddly enough, I've had this problem with a customized PROven 1.14a as well, so it may have more to do with one of the apps I installed than your ROM.
[Edit 2]
Uh, is it just me, or is the phone lock curtain missing?

yup it's missing in 5.05 Raphael-- I'll put up the other version that I have with the dlls from 5.05.
Still thinking what more to change-- I'm trying to port the multiple appointments from HD.

That'd be awesome.
What'd be more awesome is if you could port the weather tab
But one thing at a time, I guess.

Hi there,
Bluetoggler is a very simple application that allows you to toggle bluetooth (Off / On / 'Discoverable') on your WM6 device. When you run it, it switches your Bluetooth radio on or off or to 'discoverable', depending on the state it was in. There's a 5 sec. timeout to enable tristate switching. (Just see it for yourself, then you'll know what I mean)
Why:
I was getting tired of all the trouble one has to go through, just to enable or disable Bluetooth, so yesterday I wrote this application. I thought it might be nice to share it with other people who encounter the same problem, so here it is.
I really don't know if there already are other applications which do the same thing. If so, Bluetoggler might be a nice alternative. If not: have fun with it.
This application uses the .NET compact framework 3.5 and I tested it on my HTC Touch Pro. (Rom: 5.05.404.1 NLD, Original update from HTC). Of course I do not provide guarantees or can be held responsible for damage blablabla...
I think it's allways nice to hear what others think of something you've created, so please feel free to comment or send me an email at:
brrrbaybay (<_AT_>) gmail (_._) com.
Friendly regards,
Joost Haverkort (BrrrBayBay)
WM6.5 compatible??
WM 6.5?
Haven't tried that. It's compiled for the .NET compact framework 3.5, and I assume that WM6.5 will provide backward compatibility with WM6 or 6.1.
It runs fine on my original HTC ROM with WM6.1.

Joost
Check It: http://thewingster.com/bluetoggler.aspx
Ur app has been added to The Wingster! Feel free to post that link anywhere you'd like!
Nice App!
This is nice!
I love this!!
Thank you Joost!
Since you wrote the app.. is there a chance that you can add some options..
· When the phone button is press or the exe is active, enable bluetoooth
· When you hang up the phone disable bluetooth
· When you hang up the phone do nothing to the bluetooth
· When a call comes in enable bluetooth
Thank you for your contribution to the forum.. I am currently using AEButton to triple clock a button to turn it on and off cause there was nothing that did it automatically.
Extra functions
@Eazy:
I really like you ideas, though I'm not sure if I'll implement them due to lack of spare time :s
I'm considering buying the HTC Touch Pro 2. If that device also has crappy bluetooth toggling, I'll certainly update BlueToggler.
Bluetoggler source dump
Hi all,
I decided that if I'm not continuing to work on this application I might as well give away the source code. It's not much (understatement), but here it is. Have fun with it.
Friendly regards,
Joost Haverkort
Ps.
This application needs the "Embedded source tools for bluetooth" package from microsoft to compile.
delete "On-Discovery" mode?
Can anyone make another version with the "On-Discoverable" option out of it? That is, just have it as "On" and "Off"? I have a Sprint/HTC Touch Pro, and I love this program, but I don't want to turn on the discovery mode. I just want on/off.
Compatibility with WM 6.5
The purpose of BlueToggler interrest me because i want to implement a bluetooth application on WM 6.5.
However, when I run it, it doesn't switch my Bluetooth radio because it can't check the state it was in.
I tested your application on my HTC HD mini T5555. (Rom: 1.07.401.1 (85429) WWE, Windows Mobile 6.5 Professional).
No compile error, the program just doesn't apply.
Perhaps, Microsoft.WindowsMobile.SharedSource.Bluetooth.dll doesn't work on WM 6.5.
If someone knows why it doesn't run correctly, it'll be great to answer me as he can.
