I just installed WM5 and tested it for two days what i found that the power consumption of my O2 had increased much more than WM SE Secondly i was very impressed with the main gui as well as the dialer which has been used in wm5 I would like to know if the same kind of gui could be implemented on WMSE It would be a great OS You would find good stablity,xbackup would work,as well as all apps which do not work on wm5 would start working
sure if somebody make a skin which looked like it for one of the many shells you can install to replace the normal today screen
Hi all,
Can anyone tell me where I can find VGA versions of the 10 key CommManager, HTC Home and any other HTC Apps?
Been searching for hours but not finding sod all. The supposedly VGA HTC Home app I found looks tiny but I've seen another version (@192Dpi) on the Athena that looks normal but can't find it!
Also, does anyone have a VGA version of the new HTC Default tsk? The black one?
I'm only really after the three things mentioned above but if you know of any other cabbed up VGA HTC apps, please post them as it may be useful for others!
Thanks in advance.
As far as I know, the HTC home only displays properly on 96dpi in realvga mode. That's what I use and it looks proper (not tiny). I also believe that many have used the 10 key comm manager from the Kaiser forum. It isn't VGA but works well on our devices. You're also free to download PK's addon rar from the Dark Dual 3.0 ROM. It has a nice collection of apps there. This is easily overlooked while pouring through threads. Most of the apps will be within the first few posts of new ROM releases, if that helps any. Good luck
Have you looked over in the universal forums? Many HTC and other VGA Apps. The Htc Home vga cab has been posted in this forum and also the universal forums.
A quick search turns up the following for Htc Home VGa

Watch for the vga cab that really does not look too well. It cuts off the msg notification tabs and really looks crappy. but looks ok in 96 dpi, but not good in other dpi. Also, someone posted one that looks ok, but can not be customized with the HHC customizer. There are several that work well.
Thanks both

Yeah that's the one I'm running on my P750 now but it's pretty small!
For anyone else looking, PK add-ons mentioned by raskell can be found here:

EDIT: Neither SnapVue nor HTC Home from the PK add-ons work on the P750
I'm not new to custom ROMs in general, I've had them on my PPC6700 and Mogul previously, but the Touch Pro seems to have ALOT of them. I have specifics on what I'm looking for. I don't even know if half this stuff exists on the Raph800, so bare with me.
- WM 6.5, but only if it's pretty much entirely bug free.
- Landscape Cleartype. I've heard Da_G's ROM supports it, do any others?
- Topaz HTC Start Menu for TF3D, and HTC Menu Enhancement
- Rhodium TF3D (weather fix, again looking for bug free)
- NO built in Opera, or 9.7 Beta
- Touch HD S2A
- HTC app skins (Phone, Calc, etc)
- Non-ridiculous boot screens (which I'm flexible on lol)
Any thoughts?
IDK of any rom that is 100% bug free. but to get what you want you would need to use a kitchen. who is your cell provider?
I feel the same way have a ppc6700 and have used the kitchens on that one but my touch pro I am lost on what to install and what not to I just want to go to wm 6.5 for sprint just like stock nothing fancy but can add later when I know what they do
Thanks for your input guys, I wound up unlocking and giving NFS_Fan's 6.5 a try, so far I love it!
Hello, I have a little problem. I like the the look of manilla2D, but I want to launch the quick launcher (in my old rom) when I slide the keyboard, but they dont work.
So I try with Slide action, but thez only work when I close the keyboard.
I think the problem come from Manilla2D
Anybody know how to resolve the problem? thanks
I use the SlideActions program for this. You can get it here...

It's not a bug, it's a feature
Manila2D and Quick launcher are not compatible...
It seems most of the professional developers have switched to WM6.5 + Sense 2.5 and fully abandoned W6.1 & Sense 2.1
Surely one of the very best applications for Sense 2.5 is “Cookie Home Tab” which let users to customise many items easily within Sense 2.5, while there isn’t any for Sense 2.1 users!
Wish some of these great developers reconsider Sense 2.1 and make a new application similar or equivalent to CHT for it to make the sense 2.1 users as happy as 2.5 users
maybe you could ask in the thread of the cookie home tab. Maybe your question is kinda interesting in terms of speedadvantages. But Im no specialist!
Thanks,
Future

Why not just upgrade to 2.5?

While I like 2.5, there are more things about it that I dislike.
I don't like the favorite contacts page at all.
I can't stand that there isn't a programs tab, and while there are several threads about adding one, I have not been able to get any of them to work.
So for now, I am happy with 2.1
The one thing I miss the most of 2.5 is the settings tab though.

in 2.5 you don't need a program tab, if you install CHT
and contacts can be added to the quicklinks,too.so why do you think that much users say, that Sense with CHT is how it should be? just give it a try it's free and you can flash back if you like 6.1 after some days still more.
and Sense 2.5 has a settings tab...

I have tried 2.5 with and without CHT.
I still like to have a programs tab, even with the home tab quick links, and I like the 2.1 favorite contacts page.
Personal preference.
that's really ok, mate

I fully agree with Brent372!
If there was a CHT version for sense 2.1, then you could customize many thing and combine advantages.

The DeepShining ROM from dotcomp has a Programm Tab, it is WM6.5 with Sense 2.5. Maybe you give it a shot.

Hi Michel!
We do all know that there is no technical advantage of Sense 2.1 over 2.5 but Im wondering if a Sense 2.1 can provide more speed than the newer versions. The most ROM Chefs discussed the 2.1 vs 2.5 in terms of speed (see the "Blackstonehenge HyPer" thread in the Blackstone ROM Development section for instance). From a users sight Sense 2.1 is only missing the quicklinks, right?
So *IF*
- Sense 2.1 DO have reasonable speed advantages compared to 2.5 and
- C00kie Home Tab for Sense 2.1 could bring quicklinks to life there and
- it's possible to port CHT over to Sense2.1 without much work and
- a Sense2.1 CHT would not slow the Sense 2.1 speed down to 2.5 level
I would appreciate such a version as it could be really interesting for all the devices with slower processors and chipsets (400-800MHz) and including my old blackstone (Touch HD). But only if all the IFs are positive of course...
Thanks for this discussion,
Cpt-Future
and again... it is matter of personal preference.
I am sure there are others like me that right now, prefer 2.1 over 2.5
it will be great if something like CHT be available for sence 2.1, i have Diamond and i tested both sense 2.5 and 2.1. sense 2.1 is faster on my device.
