Versions based on newer 21215 HERE
'Louzeberry' 6.5 ROM -- Version 043009 (changelog below)
This is my latest personal build. I'm posting it because I didn't notice any chefs putting together 6.5s with the standard TF3D, and I figured there might be people like me who are waiting until xboxmod gets done with converting the shipped version of TF3D2 to make the switch.
Getting to know this ROM:
* 6.5 Build 21500 (Versions based on newer 21215 HERE).
* TF3D STANDARD with the FuzeBerry theme (turned off by default in favor of the new 6.5 Titanium interface; you can switch it in the Today settings).
* FuzeBerry for the 6.5 Titanium interface.
* Rhodium menu enhancement and Tachi-style notifications.
* The HTC Dialer is no longer installed, starting with 042909. There is a known conflict between the HTC Dialer and the lock screen in this version of WM6.5. BUT the standard dialer is skinned to look much better than it does by default.
* HTC Volume is omitted, because it won't change in-call volume without the HTC Dialer. Instead, this volume app which is skinned to look almost the same is included.
* HTC Album 2.5, with the social networking uploaders. I'm not crazy about the new behaviors 3.0, or about the fact that the uploaders aren't currently included in that version.
* Opera 9.5 16277, Advanced Config, Google Maps, Titanium Customizer, Total Commander, Weathermaster (all uninstallable)
* Keyboard configured for the Fuze. Use this if you've got a non-Fuze Touch Pro.
* Available with and without HTC on-screen keyboards.
* Removed certain TF3D tabs (see 042409 changelog). If you want them back, disable TF3D and unzip this to your windows folder.
* User Customization compatible.
* Any trouble installing items or accessing 'net with with JBEd? Change this setting. (Thanks to DN).
* Hotfix: "Phoneagent fix." If you're using a 042909 or 043009, the "Phone" softkeys don't work. This takes care of that.
Changelog / Download:
043009NOKB - NO HTC Keyboard version (makes using 3rd party keyboards easier)
043009NB- HTC Keyboard included
- Updated to Opera 16277
- Power-saving tweaks enabled by default
- Connection setup won't try to start before initial customization
- JBed Start Menu shortcut added back
- Fixed ugly fonts in keyboard / PC Connection screen fixed when TF3D was disabled
- Hotfix: "Phoneagent fix." If you're using a 042909 or 043009, the "Phone" softkeys don't work. This takes care of that.
042909NOKB - NO HTC Keyboard version
042909KB - HTC Keyboard included
- No longer includes HTC Dialer, to avoid conflicts with WM6.5 lock screen, BUT skins the default dialer to look pretty nice (thanks to Davey01)
- HTC Volume is omitted, because it won't change in-call volume without the HTC Dialer. Instead, this volume app which is skinned to look almost the same is included.
- Incorporates the 042509 hotfixes. SMS freeze should be gone. Scroll wheel should work (and in lots of apps besides just the ones enabled on stock)
- Switches to jbed package provided by NRGZ28 (small goof, missing jbed shortcut in start menu; install this to fix it)
- Hotfix: Ugly font in keyboard when TF3D is off, or in the "Connect to PC" screen? Install this (Cabbed up courtesy of Captain_Throwback)
- Any trouble installing items or accessing 'net with with JBEd? Change this setting. (Thanks to DN).
042509NOKB - NO HTC Keyboard version
042509KB - HTC Keyboard included
- Fixed Comm manager issue
- Replaced Jbed with a different version. This one includes Opera Mini and the Gmail app out of the box, both available from Start menu
- "Programs" softkey in TF3D home, which didn't 't do any good without the programs tab available, Changed to "Contacts"
- Today screen previously had "Contacts" for both the right and left softkeys if neither TF3D nor Titanium was enabled. Now it'll be Contacts / Phone (just like TF3D)
- Fix for issue where the HTC keyboard can cause a freeze when typing in an SMS recipient name. Edit: Maybe not. But this should work: Install this hotfix if you have this problem.
- If there was indeed a problem preventing "Favorite Contacts" from being installed, it seems fixed. Working just fine on my tests.
- Speed boosts (no need to d/l that cab from the 042409 changelog)
- Install this hotfix to get the scroll wheel working in lots and lots of applications.
042409nokb - No HTC Keyboard version
042409kb - HTC Keyboard included
- New default TSK theme is a modified "Rock and Republic Black," with wallpaper by yours truly
- Holding down power button now brings up PSShutXP
- Removed the following tabs from TF3D: Calendar (doesn't do anything), Programs (I just use the 6.5 start menu), Call History (same settings are already in TF3D), Communications (ditto), Sounds (ditto). If you want them back, disable TF3D and unzip this to your windows folder.
- Tachi notifications are again uninstallable. May eliminate them from the next version and just provide the cab.
- "LB" Wallpaper in three colors. All included wallpapers (except "minimalistic") are now by me.
- More cleanup to save a small amount of extra space on the device
- New welcomehead
- You can boost performance with this cab (tweaks to be included by default in next release; this was updated a few times with more tweaks - the most recent version was put up in the early hours of 042509, and is def. worth redownloading if you got it before then)
(See txt file for 042209 and before)

Calendar problem
Hi, very nice try i prefer TF3d and more tabs, i flashed the rom from yesterday because with other 6.5 versions i had problem with GPS it makes disconnection several times. I don't have this problem any more. The inly bug is that the calendar in TF3d doesn't work.
Thanks
When you say the calendar doesn't work, how exactly do you mean? If it's just that all you can do is view the month, but not interact with it (no clicking through to the date, no seeing appointments, etc) that's really all there is to the calendar in this version of TF3D. It's sort of a pointless tab.
Nice in deed. I have made a FuzeBerry for WM 6.5 if anyone would like it to match TF3D....
Calendar problem
Yes i mean this excactly, but if you can only view the month in this version of TF3D then the rom is the only one with no GPS problem.
Thank's again and i will give feedback if i find any bug.
Thanks Matt -- Think that's working it's way into my next version. Do you have an existing OEM package for it you could point me to?
Pirgas -- Glad to hear the GPS works for you, but I haven't done anything special to it. I would think most of the ROMs built off Da_G's should work, unless the chefs have been tinkering with settings I haven't touched.
I don't know either what's the problem but after i flashed your rom i installed the same programs with other chef's roms. After that in your rom the GPS is locking very fast also battery drain is lower than other roms
regards
John
Hey Lou,
got any screen captures of your new rom?
Sounds interesting...
New version coming later today/tonight (Thursday) with some enhancements/additions, including the Fuzeberry theme for the 6.5 interface. Will put up some screenshots then.
this is one sweet rom one of the best. recently switched to wm6.5 roms and this one has to be the fastest of them all. I was hoping you could add some stuff like the finger keyboard, it takes forever to install afterward, and maybe the 4-in-a-row programs and settings honeycomb menu, 3 in a row is just not enough. and maybe some little programs nuelite, google maps, opera, and sort them in categories, like all chef's do.
But dont have to listen to me its a great rom as it is. Keep it up.
Google Maps and Opera will be added in tonight's build (both as cabs during initial customization, so uninstallable or easy to replace with an upgraded version). Possibly also switching to 21202 as well; not sure yet. May add Fingerkeyboard in the future -- the authors request that chefs contact them first and I haven't yet. Advanced Config also probably in tonight's.
Glad it's fast for you, but it's essentially just a build off of Da_G's kitchen with very little modification -- i barely know what i'm doing yet as a chef, so I'm going slow.
Also in tonight's, if i stick with 21500, I'll be rolling back to an earlier version of the lock screen that fixes a few issues. No fix I know about yet for the dialer/lock screen conflicts, though.
Build will be posted sometime late-night. I'm at work until around midnight.
Cool then I might just try making my own rom, but i have to warn you you have already made and have most of the things i want in mine so it will look a lot like yours.
I just have one q... How did you get calendar in the original touchFlo thats the only reason I like the rhodium is for the calendar but somehow you got it in te original TouchFlo.
Please, tell me where you got it.
Certain themes for the original TF3D include a Calendar -- including Fuzeberry. All it does is show the month, unlike the TF3DII version, where you can actually use it to see your calendar events. But if it's useful for you, it's there. If not, you can disable it (and any other tabs you may not use) in Advanced Config (which will be part of the new build).

GPS problem
Hi Lou,
i flashed the new rom without any programs installed but i have again problem with gps. After locking it makes disconections every 10 sec.

I'm on the same Radio (which I highly recommend, actually), and haven't had a problem. Try uninstalling the "turbo GPS" item under "Remove programs" and see if that helps.
What GPS program are you using? I've only tested with google maps.
EDIT: FYI - Putting up a new build without those GPS Tweaks and with a (hopeful) fix for the audio skipping that's been a problem with this generation of HTC devices ... will be ready in a few ...
i use igo8 and destinator7 and both have the same problem. i updated the radio to 1.14.25.05 but nothing. With your first rom the things are better but the problem is still there.Not so often but it exist. I tried almost all the 6.5 roms and i think i will go back to 6.1. I have spend a lot of time on this problem and i don'n know if it worth . i 'll give a final try on B version .
Thank's a lot for your time and your nice rom

If you haven't flashed yet (and you're on a Fuze) wait for 041809, building and uploading now. Same as 0417, but configured for the Fuze rather than TP. Also, in 041708, the AGPS wasdisabled by default -- it's enabled and set up for AT&T here. BIG difference if you're on AT&T.
Excellent ROM....Thank you
I have a couple of ideas for...please don't take the wrong way
1. Tools for customizing/configuring that work with your ROM
example: HTCWeatherMaster, TF3D Config.
The reason I pointed these 2 out because I've installed several versions and can't get it to work.
2. Can we have a shortcut for AudioManager
I haven't come across a TF3D or TF3D2 ROM with one yet. I'd be nice to access our music from the programs tab also.
3. Throw in a basic BLACK theme to match TF3D's background or include pairs so that we can match both right out the box.
Again...Excellent ROM.
I haven't tried any 6.5's because they all included TF3D2 which still has too many issues I don't want to deal with.
I also like how you took all the good from TF3D2 to create this ROM.
I'm running 041509 version right now by the way (@ time of this post).
DWNY (responding point by point)
1) Sure, I can include those, but what wasn't working when you tried them? Did the install fail? Did they fail to do what they were supposed to?
2) Do you mean the TF3D music tab, or the music player program included on some other HTC devices? If you know of a good working version, point me in the right direction.
3) Let me see what I can do -- I haven't paid much attention to whether TSK files from older versions of WM work on 6.5, or if there are any new good versions of Black made specifically for 6.5. I'll poke around and see what I can learn. But you do realize that background on TF3d is no background at all, right -- there's just no default wallpaper set.
Might be a day or two before I get to a new build. When I do, I'll upload versions both including and excluding the HTC keyboard.
Wordsmith9091 (responding point by point)
Thanks for the response.
1. The 2 I mentioned installed but ran with errors.
2. Yes, the music player that launches from the music tab. I thought/think it is AudioManager. I've come across all the pieces to TF3D/TF3D2 but not music player. I tried an older version from the TILT....no go.
3. But you do realize that background on TF3d is no background at all, right -- there's just no default wallpaper set.
I used a .TSK from 6.0, 6.1 and the background does change along with the bars. Some .TSk don't change both, bottom & top bars sometimes.
Thanks again....looking forward to new builds.

This is a copy and paste from my blog on thoughts on this rom and 6.5.
http://www.blakemitchellweb.com/blog/?p=31
I use an HTC Touch Pro and recently installed a custom rom running Windows Mobile 6.5. This particular rom was made by Jakdillard and posted at XDA devs. I am not sure about too much of the information as to what parts are used from 6.5 and 6.1. First off I will say that I installed and let customization run first. This had TF3D install and I wanted to get more of a feel for sliding panels. When I disabled TF3D and reenabled Titanium (Thiis the name for sliding panels) it never launched. I thought that there may have been a problem so I did a clear storage. Installation went on again and I did a soft reset during customization. Upon doing this it started back like I had done a clear storage again. This time I let customization run again, did the disable of TF3D and reenabling of Titanium and once again nothing happened but after doing a soft reset titanium was up.
So the performance is pretty wretched. It lags a lot but it is usable. I was able to perform a phone call, get on the internet using the new version of IE, set up google sync in activesync and synced my calendar and contacts, installed and set up funambol for push email, installed amaze gps and was able to get a lock, use wifi, and browsed through pretty much everything. I installed Diamond Tweak and enable some of the tweaks that improve performance but did not see any improvement. When I had IE open my memory was at 85% and it dropped to 37% when I closed it so it is a bit of a memory hog.The new menus are pretty nice and do improve the finger friendliness of the ROM.I like the transparent softkeys and start bar visually, and I like the new honeycomb start menu, although I think it could have been more visually stimulating. Also, We are able to edit the icons that we use on the start bar like we could before and it does not do anything to mess up the new transparent start bar. I installed this cab by tsowen from ppcgeeks and it looks good.
Sliding panels seems pretty nice but there is also a but of a let down. Many people will prefer TF3D or one of the other plethora of shells that can be used on the today screen. Like many of the others shells and today plugins you can't use any other today plugins with this one. I like the look of the sliding panels but the let down comes from the lack of customization straight out of the box. If I could change it I would have sliding panels have each individual setting able to be disabled (i.e. I do not use text messaging because I use email. I would do away with the SMS panel.) Also it is missing some features that are getting integrated into other options. If sliding panels had the ability for developers to develop plugins to cover some of the other areas it would be phenomenal. It is missing some things like weather, rss, im, facebook, and stocks.
I am going to keep running this ROM for another day at least to get a little more familiar. Hopefully I will get a chance to make some screenshots, install second today and see how they play together.

no Problem you can find more updates for this over and www.ppcgeeks.com that is where I generally post
Yeah, I post there more often than here, but had not noticed that it was there until seeing it here and going there to look for it. I thought it was strange that it was here and not there and once I got there I realized you had it in that thread but it did not say 6.5 in the first post (or I overlooked it.) Anyway, I will keep a close eye on that thread.
This a good rom pretty pretty sexy lol ummm i understand its extreme beta an its good i hope yall guys keep doing it up an making it right...yall guys should work for microsoft an htc lol
I have been using Da_g's 6.5 beta 8 for almost a week now and LOVE it. I made the modification to the cpr files to make Titanium a little smoother and more responsive. But the only issues I am left with is when switching from portrait to landscape my phone messes up the image on my homescreen. It clips it and warps it a little. I can fix it by disabling and re enabling titanium or a soft reset.
It always comes back though - does this rom do that?
Also when using RSS hub sometimes the device hangs for up to a minute. On this 6.5. I did not have this on NATF's 4.3 before.
Any help would be appreciated!
http://www.askTheAdmin.com
Very Happy with it.
Except for memory and slight performance tweaking this build has been working great for me on my sprint touch pro.
Thanks to jakdillard and others who developed this.
Some screen grabs would rock my world. TIA
hot my blog on the first page there are several although with my own background image and different icons.
updated .......

Perfomance is good, Touchflo is slow but that's a normality with .5 till a new version comes out.. other than that this is a nice ROM compared to others
stuck on align screen config page
after install kitchen rom, i am stuck on the align screen page. i tap on the + but it does not register. random circular motions cause it to advance to next location of + but it just repeats.
suggestions?
EDIT-
problem on my device is not limited to this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=490567
edit-
a couple of hard resets later and it seems to be working. weird quirk?
In any case, great rom.
Universal CDMA, Sprint, or Verizon?
I haven't seen anything posted saying this is carrier specific. Or what radio is compatible with it.
Can someone elaborate on that?
'LouzeBerry' 6.5 ROM -- Version 061209 (changelog below)
This is my latest personal build. I'm posting it because I didn't notice any chefs putting together 6.5s with the standard TF3D, and I figured there might be people like me who are waiting until xboxmod gets done with converting the shipped version of TF3D2 to make the switch.
Getting to know this ROM:
* 6.5 Build 21812
* TF3D STANDARD with the FuzeBerry theme (turned off by default in favor of the new 6.5 Titanium interface; you can switch it in the Today settings).
* FuzeBerry for the 6.5 Titanium interface.
* Rhodium menu enhancement
* Tachi-style notifications (uninstallable)
* Opera 9.5 16277, Advanced Config, Google Maps, Titanium Customizer, Total Commander, Weathermaster (all uninstallable)
* HTC Album 2.5, with the social networking uploaders. I'm not crazy about the new behaviors 3.0, or about the fact that the uploaders aren't currently included in that version.
* Available with and without HTC on-screen keyboards.
* User Customization compatible.
(See further notes in next post)
061209B-KB - With HTC Keyboard
061209B-NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier)
- Updated to 21812. Scrolling is getting SNAPPY.
- Switched from HTC's Config Setup to WM6.5's
- Several updated packages, including a more WM6.5-friendly version of the HTC Task Manager
* Please re-download if you grabbed the original version. Corrected version is 061209B.
* If you have trouble starting YouTube: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3953769&postcount=124
Other recommended build:
052109KB - With HTC Keyboard
052109NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier)
- Returned to 21222 SYS. To put it eloquently, it's many much more betterer. Seems faster than the newer builds, and several people in the kitchen thread report minor bugs with 21231/2 they didn't see in 21222.
- Updated Google Maps. Street View!
- New Bluetooth driver. Da_G's description: It "has been modified to remove AVRCP being tied directly to WMP, that is it should function with whatever app you're using that supports AVRCP control now."
- New keyboard driver. The home key now calls the start menu (hitting the end key, as before, will get you to the home screen)
- Some new wallpapers. Hope you like indy chick rockers and/or bluegrass-informed acoustic alternative. Want an LB wallpaper that exactly matches the color of the current welcomehead (hey, I think it looks nice)? Download the "Blueback.zip" attached to this post (made it after the build).
(Previous changelogs in next post)
MobileMatt, Mr. Fuzeberry himself, is now mirroring the ROM at http://www.fuzeberry.com/ may not always be the latest build)
Many thanks to Da_G for the kitchen, NRGZ28, Captain_Throwback, At0mAng for his own kitchen and patience, MobileMatt for creating Fuzeberry and mirroring LB, davitru for more mirrors, and all the other usual peeps.

Important Notes:
* Standard dialer, but skinned to look much nicer than it does by default.
* HTC Volume is omitted, because it won't change in-call volume without the HTC Dialer. Instead includes an app that looks almost identical
* Keyboard configured for the Fuze. Use this if you've got a non-Fuze Touch Pro.
* Removed certain redundant TF3D tabs. If you want them back, disable TF3D and unzip this to your windows folder.
* Any trouble installing items or accessing 'net with with JBEd? Go into JBed's network settings and manually pick the network appropriate for your carrier. Only a concern under certain network setups for the phone.
* Not everyone loves the Tachi notifications; they don't always act like you'd think. You can uninstall them under "Remove Programs." That will get you the default WM-style notifications. If you want the HTC-style large-button notifications (like on the stock ROM), install this as well.
* Beginning with 050609, the BioTouch files that are the core of the TouchFlo finger-scrolling are omitted, as they interfere with WM6.5's own scrolling in some cases. The practical upshot is that finger scrolling should be improved in many applications, but it won't work at all in YouTube. But using this application, you can scroll through YouTube (and lots of other stuff) nice and quickly with the scroll wheel. If you really can't live with this, install this cab for the old behavior (YT scrolling may still be choppy).
* Don't like the FuzeBerry look? Dirty commie.
--- Install this cab (updated 051809 - redownload if you got it before then) to get back the original WM6.5 icons in Titanium and the Start Menu.
--- Install this cab to get back the original Start Menu icons, but to keep Titanium in the FuzeBerry Theme.
--- And this to put TF3D back to the default look.
Warning: By doing any of this, you sacrifice super-awesomeness.
* Want an HTC Dialer back? Try the Tachi dialer. Caveats: It doesn't work in landscape, and the edit contact function won't do anything without TF3D2. But it does let you uninstall SetVolume and get HTC's Volume Rocker back (you can install HTC Volume w/o an HTC Dialer, but you won't be able to change in-call volume).
Older downloads/changelogs (see first post for most current changelog):
052709KB - With HTC Keyboard
052709NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier)
- Upgraded to 21725. Da_G says this is almost certainly 6.5.0.1
- New build brings a faster, slightly nicer IE. Also brings updates to all the widgets, and the return of the weather widget. They're faster and slicker than before.
- Minor tweaks and cleanup. Updates the "Rock and Republic LB" theme with a slightly different wallpaper (now matches the color of the welcomehead)
- Also adding today to Post No. 2: "Partial DeFuzeBerrify" cab, to keep the FuzeBerry look on Titanium, but to get original WM6.5 icons on the Start Menu. If you want more visual consistency on the Start Menu, but want to keep the grooviness of FuzeBerry elsewhere, this is good compromise.
052109KB - With HTC Keyboard
052109NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier)
- Returned to 21222 SYS. To put it eloquently, it's many much more betterer. Seems faster than the newer builds, and several people in the kitchen thread report minor bugs with 21231/2 they didn't see in 21222.
- Updated Google Maps. Street View!
- New Bluetooth driver. Da_G's description: It "has been modified to remove AVRCP being tied directly to WMP, that is it should function with whatever app you're using that supports AVRCP control now."
- New keyboard driver. The home key now calls the start menu (hitting the end key, as before, will get you to the home screen)
- Some new wallpapers. Hope you like indy chick rockers and/or bluegrass-informed acoustic alternative. Want an LB wallpaper that exactly matches the color of the current welcomehead (hey, I think it looks nice)? Download the "Blueback.zip" attached to this post (made it after the build).
051809KB - With HTC Keyboard UPLOADING - mirror by davitru
051809NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier) - mirror by davitru
- FINALLY organized the Start Menu.
- Speed tweaks
- Changed Connection Setup settings so it won't notify you automatically on first normal boot (was like this until a few builds ago). Make sure you run it manually if you're not prompted for setup during initial customization (you might be, depending on if/how you did your sdconfig.txt)
- Updated the Defuzeberrify cab from the post below (link is the same; file has been replaced) to include the folder icons for the organized start menu).
- Note (discovered after cooking): MP3 Trimmer is installed, but the lnk is missing from the Start Menu. It's in the Windows folder, and you can copy it into the Start Menu from there.
051609KB - With HTC Keyboard - mirror by davitru
051609NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier) - mirror by davitru
- Moved to 21232
- All MS Widgets now included
- Note: This is (probably) the last build where I'm leaving the Start Menu a big, flat mess. My weekend project is finally getting it organized.
051409KB - With HTC Keyboard - Mirror by davitru
051409NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier) - Mirror by davitru
- Moved to brand-spankin' new build, 21231
- Added "MyPhone"
- NetCF3.5 is now installed during initial customization, instead of cooked in, for better compatibility with 21231
- Minor additions/enhancements that come with the new kitchen
050609KB - With HTC Keyboard. Mirror by davitru.
050609NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier). Mirror by davitru.
- Fixed Initial Customization error in 050509KB version
- "Comm Mgr" in the Titanium Home screen now properly opens the Comm Manager, instead of the clock.
- The Biotouch.exe/Biotouch.dll files have been removed. See important notes in the next post on the impact of this.
050509KB - With HTC Keyboard
050509NOKB - Without HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboard easier)
- Moved to 21222, brand new build. With it comes improvements to IE, and possibly more responsive scrolling.
- No more freezes starting an SMS (hotfix was available in last version)
- PTT Button brings up new-style Comm Manager by default on Fuze
- New Welcomehead & Purple LB Wallpaper
050109KB -- with HTC Keyboard
050109NOKB -- NO HTC Keyboard (makes installing third-party keyboards easier)
- Moved to 21215, and a new kitchen. Should be snappier, and memory management should be better.
- I've disabled the automatic network setup on first boot. This prevents some people from having to go through it twice if something in their personal UC triggers it. Go to Start --> Settings --> Connections and select Connection Wizard to get set up.
- New Welcomehead, new versions of the wallpapers.
- Added in Adobe Reader
- HOTFIX: If you have freezes typing in names for an SMS, install THIS (only affects the KB build)

Sounds good! Ill be watching for updates.
Hey smith great roms, especially the latest one here its simply amazing. I have a few quirks that I have found. For a while now the last few of you roms have a bug where it shows the old style comm manager when using the PTT button. But the link in Start menu>settings>connections>comm manager is the right kind. I use the comm manager a lot do disable and enable 3g to save battery and not being able to get to it quickly is very bad.
Also could you add weather to the WM6.5 home menu like the mystic series rom.
Otherwise great rom.

I agree if when using settings, personal, buttons, and select comm manager that it lets us select the full comm manager that gives all the options. This would be a nice feature. For the weather thing just use chome editor bro, thats what i do to add panels/pages/etc. Thats not a biggie at all.

That Comm Manager issue has long been on my "Bugs me, but not a whole lot, and I've got other stuff to do" list for a while. But tonight I took a crack at it and came up with a fix:
Go into \Windows\Start Menu with Total Commander, and rename "Comm MAnager.lnk" to "Communications.lnk" -- or whatever name you might prefer. Then go into the Buttons control panel and select your newly renamed link. From now on, the button will go to the new manager.
"Comm Manager" will still be an option on the list, and you can switch to that if for any reason you ever decide you want the old-style manager (not that I can imagine you would).
It'll be set up that way by default in the next build. Edit: This is fixed in the current build.
If anyone's curious, the problem is that the button was actually pointing to a "comm manager" link in the Appbuttons folder, not the one in the start menu, and so long as both had the same name, only one would show up in the buttons control panel.
-----------
For the weather, I'm shying away from tools and plugins that are still under very active development. They get upgraded too quickly for me to feel it's very useful to include them in a ROM (although I certainly have done a ton of ROM updates over a short time, that should slow down now that virtually all kinks are worked out). I recommend setting up an SDConfig.txt file on your SD card to have anything like that installed by User Customization on the initial boot (that's how I have both Fav People and Titanium Weather getting installed on my own Fuze).
Hi Lou
after 041709B i flashed your new rom. Since now its excelent rom. I try it and give feedback. Is there any way to customize TF3D (add or remove Tabs) and change softkeys in it?

Schaps advanced config 3.3 that should be cooked into the rom bro. Go to settings, more settings, then see tf3d towards the bottom for tabs and at the top youll see something for the softkeys.
Thank's bro i run Advanceconfig but i didn't know about more settings.
I believe those softkey settings in Adv. Config are for the stock Today screen (what you get if both Titanium and TF3D are turned off, and you're using traditional Today plugins), not for the softkeys that appear in TF3D. But you can change the TF3D ones with these registry settings:

Non, adv config soft keys settings also works for tf3d, just not for chome. Though there is a simple way with chome with reg editor, go to hklm, software, microsoft, chome, then at the bottom is the reg for the left soft key. Now in that chome folder is also every panel that is active on chome and u can click any of those and change those left and right soft keys if you like. Only problem is i have no idea how to link them.
For example, the left soft key url is :MSCONTACTS. Now i have Icontacts installed to the phone, how do i find the Icontact's url to repleace the above? Id be golden if i could figure out how to find programs urls and how to link them in reg editor.

I don't have icontact installed to check it, but looking at the cab, it should probably be:
\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe
Just added this to the first post:
- HOTFIX: If you have freezes typing in names for an SMS, install THIS (only affects the KB build)
The issue was supposed to be resolved a few versions back, but I just discovered I goofed on the registry key. This solves a conflict that exists between WM6.5's own name-lookup and the HTC keyboard's name-lookup.
Problems with 5-1-09 rom
Hey there. It's the noob again.
I flashed your latests rom yesterday and have noticed the following issues.
Just want to make sure it's not something I'm doing wrong or if this is a "feature" of the rom.
1. When I want to close an app, I click on the X in the top right hand corner. On previous ROMS, that would close the app, but now it just minimizes it.
2. Have you found a way to link soft keys for CHOME yet? Advance Configuration manger changes the keys, but after you reboot, it reverts back to default (contacts).
3. When I click on the toolbar for a notification (Examples: sprite backup report, New email, etc) it takes me to the Notification screen, I tap the notification and: sprite asks to review the report, I tap yes and it just takes me back to the Home screen. On Emails, I tap the “New Mail” and nothing happens until I tap “close” or “Dismiss All”
Thanks - Markmi300

1. This is a configuration choice (all my ROMs have been this way). You can change it by going to Start -- > Settings --> System -- Task Manager (note: there are two different control panel items called Task manager, you want the one with the gray icon). Select "button" and you can change this to the behavior you're used to.
2. I haven't been looking for a way to change this (I like the default just fine for this), but check out the threads in Development and Hacking for CHome/Titanium editors. There might be a way to do this under there; not sure.
3. That's the Tachi/Topaz-style notification screen. It's not perfect, in particular when not paired with TF3D2. Aware of the flaws, I made it uninstallable. It's listed as "HTC Tachi Notification Enhancement" under "Remove Programs." If you uninstall it and so a soft-reset, you'll be back to the standard WM-style notifications. I've flipped-flopped in the past on dropping it entirely.
Just cabbed this up, and will add it to the first post:
If you want the HTC-style large-button notifications (like on the stock ROM), after you uninstall the Tachi notifications, install this.

[ROM][WWE]Chrome ROMs & User Submitted |User-to-User Guide| Sense 2.1,2.5 or Titanium
UPDATE: 2-19-10
Newer User submitted ROMs now available. Thanks to madnish30 for updating some items and working hard to update the ROM. Here is a link to his sense 2.1 post, which hopefully he will keep updated. And here is his Sense 2.5 version. I think I will let this thread go to user submitted ROMs for now. Then you can get the Chrome ROM feel but in different flavors. Remember to keep kitchen questions to the kitchen thread. Good luck guys, and God bless. I may return at some point, but I just dont have the motivation right now and am spending all my time trying to salvage my marriage.
Check post 2 for links to User Submitted ROMs, but always read the thread to find the latest updates.
UPDATE: 1-11-10
I didnt make a lot of changes in the ROM, most changes are on my end with the kitchen. It is a newer build which has a new feature, Threaded email. I havent used it personally, but hear good things.
Chrome 23518 Titanium
Chrome 23518 Sense 2.1
Chrome 23518 Sense 2.5
Change log from previous ROMs located in posts below. Make sure to have a look to see what has changed since 21232.
THIS IS FOR GSM MODELS ONLY

Please check the version you downloaded. My FTP has been having issues. I am workin on it. You can always visit the link below and Download the correct version. This is the best way, as you know what you are getting.
Download older versions here.
LEAVE FEEDBACK so I can perfect this.
Also, Please note: My ROMs do not include a custom splash screen. There are 2 available to match the ROM available apon request.
Now the lowdown:
See post 2 for full list of Packages\Apps (OLD). Following is a list of Chrome custom addons:
-Added shortcut for switching between HTC Dialer and MS one.
-Added custom program and folder icons to nearly every program. Added "My Apps" folder for your installed programs and more organization. I like to keep the start menu clean and beautiful.
-Included a custom taskbar by bilbobrian and modified by me to be a bit lighter
-UPX Compressed most of the exe files to save space and speed up loading times
STATS:
290MB of 320MB Free Storage after customization(can anyone provide this? I have a lot installed through UC, so my numbers are way off)
120MB of 193MBFree RAM at first boot
This ROM comes equipped with a lot of extras and is by no means a "Light" ROM. It is quite fast, and still has plenty of space for anything you want to add(if there is anything to add ) I might consider a light ROM later, but for now I wanted to have a Cadillac of ROMs. Everything is included if I need it, if not, it wont hurt anything. I have included several Titanium plugins for people using Titanium instead of TF3D (Certain versions). I might also make a TF3D version which would remove Titanium for us manila users to have more free storage.
Suggestions are welcomed, but not necessary meaning it will be included/excluded.

Bugs and Fixes(This ROM is a work in progress. Rome wasn't built in a day)
-Some updated system files for build 23053. Missed these before build went online. This will make taskbar dropdown list work. I never used it during testing, so missed it Just overwrite the files in Windows folder.
Addons for Chrome 6.5
- Manila TV for GenY Manila 2.1
-The newest version of MyPhone is attatched here
-Prefer Manila's SMS interface? SMS tab is set to open MS threaded messaging by default in this ROM. Install the attatched cab to revert.
-To make SIP menu work fully install PatchedBiotouch.dll. Note that this may cause some scrolling issues, but none that I notice personally.
-If you prefer "Home" hardware button to go home instead of opening start menu, install Chrome Keypad_Old_Home.cab. Also attatched a cab ro make Home open start menu(revert)
-If you prefer the old fuzzy circle in start menu, here it is. Extract and copy into windows folder, overwriting the original.

Code:
[B]UPDATE 12-4-09[/B]
Here is a variety of ROMs to fit all your needs :D
First there are COM2 ROMs from build 21882. These have older UI style(which is what the now official 6.5 uses)
Not so many changes here, just an update. I did however change some files to modules to have them load from virtual memory rather than RAM, and compressed many image files(for space and faster loading)
Next is the COM8 builds(with lage bottom bar and start menu on bottom left)
There are some small changes across all builds mostly with dialers:
Manila 2.5 build uses newly ported LEO dialer which works hand in hand with manila 2.5. There is a small graphic glitch in this dialer noticable when keypad is shown(in SIP menu area)
Manila 2.1 and Titanium use Rhodium dialer, which should work better with Manila 2.1 and Titanium.
I have updated some applications in the 28008 builds including CleanRAM, BING(a new beta)
The titanium build also uses new Opera 10 beta2.
Sure there are more changes, but none I can recall off hand :p

UPDATE: 11-13-09
(from my original post)
All ROMs are uploading and I am spent. No more updates for a while. It was very difficult to pull all of it together because my kitchen has now tripled in size and it takes at least 330 minutes just to scroll through and make all the right selections. Then flash each one, test a bit, reflash, test, etc. I wont be around for a while, but dont let that stoip you from donating :p

There are a lot of changes, but each ROM has its own qualities and changes. M2.5 of course has updated Manila 2.5 files and LEO packages that correspond to it. All HTC software upgraded to latest 1920 versions from LEO with exception of NewContactCard which is still 1919 build. Removed extra Titanium plugins(if your not using Manila I recomend another ROM anyway)
M2.1 has some minor changes, mostly theme from previous COM5 build. Re-Compressed all images for space
Titanium has all Manila items and dependencies removed. Slightly different MenuEnhancements because latest ones wont work without Manila enabled. They are yet untested.
[B]
For all builds:[/B]
-Removed most Themes
-NEW HTC Calculator from LEO
-Most will include program called Flip_it which will allow you to use GSensor for rotation.
-Removed SpriteBackup
-Removed some other items to save space
-LOTs more
UPDATE: 9-20-09
-Build 23053
-Full and Titanium will be available at [url]www.skinzone.org/jmckeejr[/url]
-Updated Showcase. Long press on Windows soft key to launch Showcase, can set X to close with shortcut under Start Menu/Settings/System/Administrative Tools
-Added Zensor2 for Autorotation to work in all apps if wanted(autostart with FlashBack Tools)
-LOTS more !! I am short on time ATM, so I will try to update as I can.

-Opera build 16983(Compressed)
-LOTS more. Check posts later in the thread.

Looks pretty good. After you get a few nibbles and I hear good things I'll give it a shot.
This is great, Love the work you put into this, the new builds (21232 V2 DA-G's) are much smoother and would be perfect with your build. Thanks

I can say one bad thing right now. Not too bad, the audiomanager found in multimedia has the slider misplaced. I had it working before, but I think I must have changed something because it either gets messed up from MP3 Trimmer or the fix would be having AudioManager with everything in place and MP3 Trimmer with some things mixed up. Working on it right now. Other than that, we'll have to see. I'd like to have both, but might have to remove one or the other. The audiomanager has an MP3 Trimmer built in, which is part of the problem. Being that it is a beta build, I am not too worried about it. I'll get it fixed up soon.
EDIT: I have an odd fix for it right now, but I'm gonna narrow it down and make it easy for ya
EDIT2: Duh, the problem was on my end in a plugin I had installed during sashimi. No wonder it worked before, I added the problem myself later. So, please report any real bugs not related to addons.
I noticed you didn't mention the keyboard...
The mapping in the 20771 didn't work out for me... I messed around with it for a while and didn't end up fixing it... I ended up having to flash 2 or 3 times... (Finally back to stock, and then on to something else.) to get it to work right again... Except for that..I really enjoyed the rom...
Damn... it sure does look sexy...

This has just stock input method. No TP2. Don't need more to worry about.
Thats strange about the 20771 mapping. It was working fine for me in a few builds. Only time it was off was if I had enabled XT9, but still wasn't too bad. Maybe you have touch pro instead of Fuze? And you are talking about one of the hybrid builds right? Maybe I'll go back and make one with the standard keybooard.
If anyone having trouble downloading, I am having problems getting onto skinzone for some reason, so I don't know what is up. Let me know if its working right.

Bugs and Fixes
I found this after installing Audiomanager Titanium plugin. I think it is due to that, but thought I would post it here. Appears the plugin installer includes an AudioManager.exe file which was different than the one I cooked in. So, this most likely will not be needed.
An odd bug due to the adition of a standalone AudioManager and MP3 Trimmer. The graphics are a butSince it is an odd bug, here is an odd fix. You need to install the attatched Glossy_VGA_AudioManager cab, soft rest, then uninstall the cab. I have no idea why this would fix anything, but it does work. In process of looking furher into this. Make sure to install to device of course.

I've been trying & requesting an .exe or version of Audio Manager that will work outside of TF3D/TF3D2 for a while now. I don't like WMPlayer and I use CorePlayer for my .avi but it sucks as a finger frienldy music player. This also comes in handy when using SPB-MS3.
A custom "Programs" folder under the "Start Menu" would be nice to control clutter and add organization for installed programs.
Haven't flashed yet cuz I'm still luv'n your 6.1 Chrome w/Notification.
Thanks again
Nice looking and fast ROM! Thank you!
Couple of things I found:
- Launching Internet Explorer gives error message "The file :MSPIE cannot be opened...." and the phone freezes.
- Opera shows only blank page.
Looks great, unfortunately launching AS gives an error message about "MSSYNCAPP" file not being signed and incomplete and it freezes. Also, just found out that when receiving and incoming call the S2A does not work.

Yes, there is some sort of bug with all of the "short"
shortcuts seem to have something wrong. All of the registry entries are intact and the actual exe files open fine, so I'm looking into this tonight hopefully. As a temporary workaround, you could change the properties of the shortcut to point to the actual exe file. For Internet Explorer simply change from :MSPIE to
Code:
"\windows\iexplore.exe"
Leaving the part following the command from the "?" will ensure you can keep the same icon.
About the Opera, not quite sure what you mean by "shows only blank page". I mean it is literally blank page? Is the Opera skin there? Or does the page start to load and then stops. I have experienced the last before, but I think it is something in Opera or poor connection as a simple reload of the page will then show the page. If you are having trouble with connections, try the enable/disable proxy shortcuts in "Tweaks\Proxy\" folder.

Your problem is also related to the problem noted above. I will have a fix hopefully tonight.
As for the S2A, it is and has been working fine for me. Make sure you didn't use the PhoneSkin shortcut in phone folder. This is meant to toggle between the S2A dialer and the default MS one. This due to HTC/MS bug in dialer scrolling. Some people prefer MS dialer, so I made a simple script to switch on the fly. I have an updated script with more options which I will include in the fix for shortcuts. Try switchiong back and forth to make sure you have S2A enabled.

Hi jmckeejr, liking the ROM so far but I am also having the problem with the shortcuts for items such as activsync and IE. How do I change the shortcuts so this can give me access to them. Thanks. Also, any way to get the g-sensor to work when viewing pictures?

Just finished up a fix. See cab attatched to post 3. As for the G-Sensor thing, why not just use the included G-Config app? It will add the appropriate registry settings for any app you want to auto-rotate. I have disabled it by default in AudioManager because it takes twice as long to load with it enabled. Go ahead and enale it and see what I'm talking about.
Found the g-sensor right before I read your post. Thx.. Also, seems like the cab fix worked. The ROM is real nice as far as I can tell and I've been testing now for over a couple of hours. One other small bug. I've gotta keep putting back my screen brightness as it keeps putting it back to the stock settings after ever soft reset and randomly every so often but other than that, I like it!
UPDATE: I think I found out how to get the screen to stop adjusting. Was in the startup. Any way to get IE6 to play the flash videos on sites such as youtube. Or even do this in opera..? Thanks.

Ok, this ROM comes equipped with Lumos(click there). You need to go through Lumos setup under tweaks folder if you want to change the settings. I have preset it to save battery. You will notice that when you are in a dark area, the screen may be dimmer, and when in bright area the screen will be brighter.
Opera should have flash support built in(with addition of FlashLite3.1), but Youtube requires Flash 10, which is not supported by Opera. You can view videos on certain sites, but not ones that require Flash 9 or 10. You can use Skyfire for these sites I thought I had included Flash3.1, but for some reason it was missed. I'll work on it for RC1.
About the IE, I wouldn't know, as I have never really used it. I prefer Opera. If you go to www.m.youtube.com you can view the mobile version of youtube. It will play videos through streaming media player. You could also use the Youtube app which would be your best bet..
This rom is very nice the only issue i can find after using it for a full day is the shortcuts the only one thats annoying for me is the one for windows media player when selected i get a error amd the device freezes ...and when switching themes in the 6.5 home screen it hangs for a while ...but over all i like the way u put it together keep up the good work ...im lookin for some one to make me a a vey custum tmobile rom for my fuze

The start menu shortcuts are handled different in 6.5. Stil catching up with all the changes. I'll add that to the fix in post 3 tonight. Thanks
Welcome to the "EnergyROM" thread !
This development thread is for my "Energy" custom firmware series for the HTC Touch Pro (Raphael) 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.
The 21916 Build which is the most reliable, fast and bug free release. It has the Start menu button at the top left corner just like a stock ROM. I recommend you start with this first!
The 29022 Build that's the latest in the 6.5.X series with the Start menu button at the bottom left corner and big softkeys. These builds reflect the latest cutting edge technology from Microsoft. These are also much more finger friendly throughout.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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!
If you own an European\Asian Touch PRO, use the "Keyboard Selector" application under Utilities > Tweaks (after you flash the ROM) to select the "Pro" keyboard layout. The ROM comes with the american AT&T Fuze layout enabled by default.
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, however it's still in 'beta'. Cookie 1.8.5 is considered the less complicated and stable build for now.
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 !

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

'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.
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 won't find any startup wizards in this ROM. You'll be up and running in a couple minutes after flashing the ROM and ready to go. No need to spend time to set everything up.
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, all options, etc
The HTC Messaging client is removed, leaving the windows built SMS client for much faster texting, but still able to use a nicely skinned Sense text messaging app with "iphone style" messaging bubbles.

Please do not trust your livelihood to something you have not tested, running on a custom ROM, built on top of a beta operating system with a UI ported from another device!
If you depend on it, test it first. After finding a version that works well for you, I recommend keeping a personal backup. That way if you flash a newer version and problems are found, you have something to restore to.
When you download a ROM, it is a compressed file, such as 7Z or ZIP.
If you cannot extract the ROM from the archive, get a recent copy of 7ZIP or WinRar.
Do not post about a bad archive without doing this.
==================================================
WHEN POSTING / IN GENERAL OR A QUESTION OR REQUEST FOR HELP
1. Post which version of the ROM - Sense 2.1, Sense 2.5, Cookie, Max Sense, Titanium, Max Manila, GTX
2. Post which windows version - 21907 or 23569
3. Accurately describe the problem. For visual issues, post screen shots. Shake And Save is included at Start->Tools
4. Wait at least 1 or 2 days, if not more before resposting. I personally read every post in this thread. I do this on my own time.
5. Describe things you have tried.
6. Provide step by step actions to reproduce when possible. Such as: Go to message tab. Press icon in upper right to start new message. Not: Start a new text message. Why? There is more than 1 way to do most things. Not all ways lead to problems. Provide your specific way to reproduce it.
7. Thread title might show a later date than the available ROMs. Here's why - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7137062&postcount=26583 so, don't post about it, unless it is more than 2 days later than the thread title and there aren't already posts about it. BASIC TROUBLESHOOTING
"Please remember that there are a lot of variables here and the ROM is just one of them. You may have any number of the following issues:
1) a bad flash
2) an application incompatibility issue
3) a simple settings problem
4) a large RF source in your pantsIf several people all determine that they have done XYZ and have problem ABC it may be that our chef can do something about it. Until such time, you have some troubleshooting to do. Namely;
1) Check your settings, sometimes, that is all it takes
2) Reset and test again
3) Hard Reset and test again
4) Flash the stock ROM and spend a few days noting the behavior as you add your software
5) Flash an NRG ROM and use it a few days without adding software
6) Start adding software until the problem occurs." ==================================================

BATTERY SAVING TIPS
The first few days
• There is nothing special about this ROM to make it use more power than other ROMs except that it is tweaked for performance over battery life. After things have settled down, you should get a couple of days usage out of a charge.
• Immediately after flashing, you will probably observe very poor battery performance. This is due to the charging circuit having to reset itself.
• The battery meter will not settle down and give accurate readings for a few battery cycles. Give it a few days.
• For the first few battery charging cycles, try to charge to 100% with phone off and then allow battery to drain down quite a bit before recharging. This is so the meter will calculate drain well.
Recommendations
• Make sure you followed all of the flashing instructions to the letter. Especially the part about the hard reset.
• Backlight is set to high. You might want to change that.
• 3G is on by default. Recommendation is to turn it off when you are not surfing the internet.
• Don't drain your batery all the way down until it dies. Not good for these types of batteries.
• The GPS sucks the battery dry. If you want to keep track of yourself, consider something like GPSToday that only wakes up the GPS once in a while.
• Maybe you don't really need aGPS enabled. Disable and check GPS lock times and battery drain.
• Applications that run from the storage card consume more power so install oft-used or background-type applications to main memory.
Troubleshooting
• If your radio does not match your rilphone.dll you can get crazy bad battery drainage. Use the recommended radio or spend some time working out a good combination for your phone/carrier/location/usage.
• Check to see that some application is not still running in the background. Check, do not assume. USe the full Task Manager application.
• Check to see if the screen is still on when you expect it to be off. Soft reset can fix that issue.
• Some radios work better with some carriers and locations. Asking everyone to tell you what radio to use may not give you the best answer. Be specific about your situation.
• More stuff you should see HERE
If you have tried all the above and still can't get over a day with moderate use, you may actually have a bad battery. Try getting a new one that is made by another manufacturer.
==================================================
SD CARD WOES
Several people have reported problems with Class 6 SD cards. This is not limited to this ROM. Seems the hardware is finicky. Try Class 4 for better results.

New Known Issues with current ROM
Phone settings from 6.5.x build are missing
Link to solution posted here.
Known Issues with current ROM
Remap of PTT and Long PTT don't work. Create a short cut to the apps you want. Name them Long_PTT.lnk and Short_PTT.lnk. Copy them to the windows folder.
Or install and use Tarkim's RaphKeyboardMapper and create a rule for PTT (Long and Short).
23xxx series does not use the HTC Volume Control. This is true with all 23xxx ROMs for the Raphael. 2 solutions. MarcLandis Volume Control located right here on xda-developers.com. Another great solution is VolumeEx, but it is trialware. I think it is only about $10 to register. It gives some really cool features, such as restoring your volume after a specified time. Perfect for meetings, so you don't forget to turn it back up.
Minor Known Issues with current ROM
1. Music shuts off when you play with no headphones and then shut off the
screen with the button on top. Not an issue when playing through wired headphones or A2DP devices. Also, not an issue if you just wait for the screen to shut off.
2. 23xxx series ROMs don't rotate apps through the G-Sensor. There are 3rd party apps to handle this, such as ChangeScreen or Gyrator. (I have nto tried Gyrator).

4. MMS Settings do not set up properly for all carriers. (reported by other users.) Settings for 1 MB send and receive at this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6824722&postcount=25628
Note: AT&T send limit is 600k or 614400. AT&T recieve is 1MB or 1024000.
AT&T and probably T-Mobile do not require changing the settings to send an MMS.
Setting limits higher than what your carrier supports will result in a failed send or receive.

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.
Absolutely awesome ROM! Your hard work and dedication is greatly appreciated....
Download It
Unzip It
Flash It
Enjoy It
This will only change your 1st boot screen, flash it just like a ROM.
I am not responsible if something goes wrong.

you are right im sorry for posting that. NRGZ Great work on all your roms. Cant wait for this one keep up the good work and sorry again
Through a bit of luck, I have upgraded to a Tilt2. Unfortunately, this was only after my Fuze broke. Since I am now without a Touch Pro device, this will be my last release of this ROM. Thank you to everyone who used this ROM and a huge thank you to those that helped put it together.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
This ROM is a fork of Aruppenthal's great work on the RRE series of ROMs. He was kind enough to provide his kitchen and guidance after upgrading to a Touch Pro 2. I will be attempting to keep his theme of stability, speed and usability in this ROM. This ROM will always be built with the latest builds of Windows, HTC Sense and HTC components that I can get my hands on. There will also always be a Manila free version for those that wish to use an older version of TF3d, or a different shell all together.
28008.1 Notes:
- I'm still looking for a working package for Windows Live. The cooked in version will not connect to the server. I *think* installing it from the Marketplace may fix this.
- Sense on my phone is very sluggish for the first few minutes after I flash. I think it's releated to Activesync getting settled, but if you have this problem just give it a few minutes and it will settle right down.
- The Settings icon on the start menu will open the Sense settings menu if Sense is in use. The menu at the bottom of the screen will open the windows settings menu. If Sense is off, this icon goes straight to the windows settings menu. There is a tweak I can apply that will add a second icon that will always go to the windows settings menu. Does anyone actually want this?
-MMS may not work with the default connection settings. This varies from location to location. See the Known Bugs post for a fix.
ROM Info:
The No Manila version of this ROM has only Titanium installed for a home screen. The Gen.Y 2.1 version is reported to install with no problems. Use this if you want Manila without the instability of a beta build.
The VGA port of HTC Sense used in the Sense version of the ROM is in beta. I will be keeping up with updates to Sense, but can't fix any problems in it directly. For progress on the port and related bugs, check out this thread.
Titanium is still the default Today plugin. If you want to use Sense, just switch them in the control panel.
After enabling Sense, soft reset and the position fix will kick in.
AT&T connection and keyboard settings are configured by default. Non-AT&T Keyboard setting can be changed using the utility in the Tools folder. Non-AT&T connection settings can be set by downloading the Restore Connection Setup tool.
This ROM is cooked with the rilphone.dll file for radio 1.14.25.35.
This ROM is UC compatible.
Opera is not included with this ROM and must be installed by the user. Cabs can be downloaded from this thread.
The new HTC Messaging app is cooked into the Sense version of the ROM. Some people love it, some hate it. If you are one of the haters it can be disabled with this.
As always, it is recommended you flash to a stock ROM before flashing a new custom ROM. I make a point to do this every few flashes and it has reduced the number of random problems I've had. It is also important that you remember to do a hard reset immediately after flashing a ROM.

Keeping my eyes on your build
Hi, xawen,
I'm so glad that somebody will continue arrup's great work on our raphael. RRE ROMs are so far the only ones will keep Viigo running under WM 6.5. Unfortunately, I rely on my phone for my job, so stability is the most important thing for me. I would not be able to play with your build just yet, until it's stabilized. But I will definitely keep on eye on your thread to see how's your progress. Keep up the good work. Thanks.

Ya. I saw the same problem when I tried your 23506 build without manila posted in arrup's threat, so I had to revert back to arrup's 23071 build.
Glad you've picked up the ball here. I'm curious if there are any issues with sms messageing or any problems using phone keypad sip. Also can you download attachments from pop3 email servers ok? How is batery life? I'd like to try this rom. thanks.
It seems I found a few issues this morning.
1. Settings tab-Location.......does nothing
2. Email-Pretty much useless.The send/receive action works but other than that nothing. Unable to create a new email,unable to open emails, this is for both in the manila tab and in the program itself.
3. Photo/Video tab-While not play videos from tab itself. If you scroll down one picture,press it to open it,then scroll back one to the video it will play it. If you open the album and select a video it will play as well.
Other then that I can not find to much wrong. Oh I did notice on a few things like when setting up an email account. While typing in the password the box was being partially block and not in view. This was for both using with on screen keyboard and in landscape mode using hard keys. Also while typing a text it kind of did the same thing. It showed the first line I typed and would not auto scroll to show what I was continuing to type. I swiped the screen and it dropped out of typing opened the full window so I could see the full message. When I went back to typing it went back to a single line of viewable type but this time it would scroll with the end of each full line.
It did send and receive texts fine though.
I'll continue to see what I can find but so far that is it. I still have yet to load all my programs and copy short cuts, blah,blah....
Thank You again for keeping this clean ROM alive and make it your own
edit found some more
Thought i would post a few screen shots of what I've been able to do so far with it.
I used Max Manila 2.51920xx Ultimate - v2.3a
I have posted a No Manila build in the second post. This version does not have the email bug. Manila can be easily added using the Gen.Y Manila 2.1 cab. This version should be very stable since it has almost no beta packages. The only real bug I know for sure with it is the Windows Live Messenger not connecting problem. I'm still looking for a package to fix that.
I'm working on the Sense version email bug now. I think I've got a dependency wrong, but there's like 30 of them so it's taking some time to find. The project to port Sense is constantly kicking out new versions, so the other bugs with it should clear up over time. If anyone sees something not working in rRedux that has been reported working in that thread, let me know and I'll see what I did to break it

Very nice. By the way, let me tell you how insanely jealous I am that it's snowing in Salt Lake... I can't wait for ski season to kick in on the east coast.
Ya I have been waiting for it to snow here. It has several times but nothing more then a flurry. I know how it feels man I used to live in Jersey, what do you think I moved out here for.
The email fix has been found! Install this cab and reopen email.
I'll make sure this is fixed in the the next release.
New build version posted. The No Manila build is the same, only changes are to the Sense version.
Email bug should be fixed.
