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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Has what you asked for.
Thanks a ton man
Downloading it now..
First impressions, very fast, quickly syncing with my Exchange, no flaws found im my first couple of minutes playing with it.
Was hoping to see the new start menu (the unpopular one, is seems, but the new one) and it wasn't there...is there a fix or cab to have that?
Thanks for allowing the preview to this tight rom!!!!! will get more details and will edit this post if bugs are found
Jholton
I wonder if someone in this fantastic forun will be able to make a tab which contains facebook - like the twitter tab... would be grateful.
i have used search but found nothing.
OMG that is such a great idea. I would luv that feature!
love it if can be possible
Also for Sense 2.1 please
I would LOVE to have something like this on sense 2.1...

Whilst I'd love this too, it's far too difficult to program, isn't it?
seems like you could use mtp to create the tab and cfacebook within that.

cant be too hard if im not mistaken then someone made a programs tab for sense 2.5(which im running) so please do make it
i hate twitter =X
be ace with a streaming interface to so you could leave the tab open and watch ya friends updates come in live whilst in a desktop charger or something ;-)
sure Sony Erricson has this on one of thier phones..
Whatta great idea!!!
faboulus idea... we're waiting master
i never understood why they didn't incorporate this anyway...facebook over twitter any day.
+1 This is THE missing tab...
I so want this tab too!
FB Tab
This sort of tab breaks away from what HTC intended for the Sense UI. HTC intended us to use The Favorites tab and Contacts to see all the Facebook info. you can scroll through your contacts and see all the Facebook status and go to the contact to see their albums's etc.
The only reason that Twitter isn't integrated as most people don't "Follow" their friends on Twitter, only lists, websites, blog info etc.
thats all that missing from sense 2.5 is the facebook tab. Once its in their and its runs like the iphone facebook app we will be in heaven.
This is the one thing I was thinking "Wheres the facebook tab?"
Twitter got removed as soon as I had it...facebook tab would be simply awesome!
I guess its harder to implement than a twitter tab? Surely possibly though!
It would be great if it allowed you to update your status at the top of the tab then just showed recent updates below that. Something simple and easy to use.
This morning I woke up and HTC PEEP doesnt work anymore during an update of twitter
anybody know how to fix ?
or
other twitter apps?
**MOD EDIT - Thread closed (duplication) - please pop over to this thread for more info where updates worth reporting will be posted as and when they occur, including any official fixs **

copy/paste from pocketnow..:
Twitter has long announced that they'd switch to the new authentication method called OAuth which would be more secure. The problem with the old method was that applications had to store your user name and password in order to access Twitter so the new OAuth method will overcome this possible security flaw.
But together with this come the problems related to software that is not kept up to date to reflect and implement the new methods which are used as default now by Twitter. Unfortunately, HTC's Twitter client, Peep, is one of those apps that stopped working and imagine my surprise this morning when I wanted to check the tweets while drinking coffee and was presented with the screen attached. Hope HTC will release their updated version of the app as soon as possible since we know they don't want to lose any users in their Peep pool.
And guess what, moving from the HD2 to my Desire (in my desperate and naive attempt to read some news), I was surprised to find out that Peep for Android is facing the same problems, and it became clear to me that HTC has to make a move, quick!
Strange though that I managed to tweet from Peep some two hours ago!... - probably my last tweet from Peep for a while, hope it'll be short.
That's explains everything
This sucks!!!!!!!!!!
this sucks man! I twittered HTC and posted a notice on their Facebook wall, hope that they come with a fix ASAP!!!!!! Unbelievable that they had months notice to fix this problem. We also still waiting on a ROM update which they promised us since April! Its now September and still no official ROM update!
Its kind of ridiculous that HTC didn't change Peep to the OAuth method before rolling out FroYo. Now we have to wait for yet another update to fix our twitter clients.
Anyway, any alternative Twitter apps for Leo/WM6.5 which do still work? Preferably one with some cool extra functions
Yeah, I noticed this too.. Oddly enough it still works for posting new tweets.
I hope they will fix this with a simple/quick CAB update (or exe, like with the camera). Saves the hassle of backing up again.
But thanks to the XDA community, it will probably be cabbed anyways.. <3
Maybe we will need to wait to twitter again until they release windows mobile 7

I know twikini posted a while back (I can't post links but a search of "twikini stops updates" will get you there) that they would not update their app to support OAuth so that on 8/31 is would stop working. Seems as if Peep does not support OAuth either. Not sure us HD2 owners will be getting an update given the state of WM 6.5 and WM7 around the corner.
For WinMO, I use Panoramic MoTweets they updated to support OAuth in version 1.8.4

Was posted on an other thread
Butt I don't like the way motweets's works and his layout so this could be an option for people who want to try
As much as I love the HD2, I can't stand HTC's "support", more like lack of, lmao! They seem to make a phone & drop it like an ex girlfriend with a scat fetish, then move on to the next one!
Thank god for xda & you talented individuals or this phone would be near useless by now.
I love the Peep feature, it's my preffered way of tweeting & reading tweets. On Desire I love tweetcaster & tweetdeck, two awesome apps, which naturally means they won't be available for Windows......grrrrr!
I'm sure if enough people complain to HTC regarding it, they will address it. Expecially since T-Mobile is still selling the HD2.
I do admit it's discouraging though that it's not already fixed, considering the time given to address it
I dont use Peep but do use both MoTweets and PockeTwit,
only MoTweets is working now.
love u guys
i was wondering why peep wasn't workin i know if i got a problem to always come to xda thanks
Those of you on WinMo who already have Kinoma Play for its media features can use its Twitter app as well. If you don't have Kinoma yet, you're missing out. It's well worth the purchase.
I'm hoping Peep gets fixed as well, but at least I've got a stand-by.
Any clever coders out there working on an unofficial patch?
Wow good thing I read this post cause I almost resorted to a hard reset!
Official reply from HTC
I got this official reply from HTC today:
Hi, We are currently investigating an issue with our Peep client that has stopped working and hope to have a solution soon. Please monitor the support pages for updates, or if you prefer we can record your details and contact you again once a solution is available, You can use the official twitter app for the time being. This is unaffected, HTC are currently working on the authorisation required for peep to work on our handsets, an update should be available soon. Thank you for contacting HTC Europe Best Regards Luke HTC Europe.
Seems like it's going to take them a while to resolve this. We're already waiting since April on a new ROM update so I doubt if an official update will be deployed since Windows 7 will be debuting in December.
In the mean time, download moTweets, it works excellent!!!!!!! Does anybody know how to replace the twitter tab in Sense with moTweets? That would be excellent, but I don't know how.
If anyone knows, please post how to.
THANKS!
I recieved the email below of Twitter. as far I see they will deliver updates to change the Oauth login
Over the coming weeks, we will be making two important updates that will impact how you interact with Twitter applications. We are sending this notice to all Twitter users to make sure you are aware of these changes.
What are applications?
There are over 250,000 applications built using the Twitter API. To use most applications, you first authorize the application to access your Twitter account, after which you can use it to read and post Tweets, discover new users and more. Applications come in many varieties, including desktop applications like TweetDeck, Seesmic, or EchoFon, websites such as TweetMeme, fflick, or Topsy, or mobile applications such as Twitter for iPhone, Twitter for Blackberry, or Foursquare.
Update 1: New authorization rules for applications
Starting August 31, all applications will be required to use “OAuth” to access your Twitter account.
What's OAuth?
- OAuth is a technology that enables applications to access Twitter on your behalf with your approval without asking you directly for your password.
- Desktop and mobile applications may still ask for your password once, but after that request, they are required to use OAuth in order to access your timeline or allow you to tweet.
What does this mean for me?
- Applications are no longer allowed to store your password.
- If you change your password, the applications will continue to work.
- Some applications you have been using may require you to reauthorize them or may stop functioning at the time of this change.
All applications you have authorized will be listed at http://twitter.com/settings/connections.
- You can revoke access to any application at any time from the list.
Update 2: t.co URL wrapping
In the coming weeks, we will be expanding the roll-out of our link wrapping service t.co, which wraps links in Tweets with a new, simplified link. Wrapped links are displayed in a way that is easier to read, with the actual domain and part of the URL showing, so that you know what you are clicking on. When you click on a wrapped link, your request will pass through the Twitter service to check if the destination site is known to contain malware, and we then will forward you on to the destination URL. All of that should happen in an instant.
You will start seeing these links on certain accounts that have opted-in to the service; we expect to roll this out to all users by the end of the year. When this happens, all links shared on Twitter.com or third-party apps will be wrapped with a t.co URL.
What does this mean for me?
- A really long link such as http://www.amazon.com/Delivering-Happiness-Profits-Passion-Purpose/dp/0446563048 might be wrapped as http://t.co/DRo0trj for display on SMS, but it could be displayed to web or application users as amazon.com/Delivering- or as the whole URL or page title.
- You will start seeing links in a way that removes the obscurity of shortened links and lets you know where each link will take you.
- When you click on these links from Twitter.com or a Twitter application, Twitter will log that click. We hope to use this data to provide better and more relevant content to you over time.
Thanks for reading this important update. Come and check what's new at http://twitter.com.
Thanks,
The Twitter Team

I am so curious about my first android toy (X10), I am very excited, so I'm ready to be flamed and bashed for my noob Qs (search is not working properly )
Oh yes ! I'm a noob again
My Qs:
1- How do I sort my contacts list in last/first name instead of fist/last ??
2- Is it possible to auto-sync contacts avatars to their corresponding facebook profile pic ??
Thanks for being kind
If you've come from WM then you will know we all have to be a noob at some point.
On the contact front, don't think the stock phone book works that way. I use a freebie app called Gesture Search, you use it to draw with your finger the first letter of your contact, be it first or last name. You can add more letters if you need to narrow your selection down. There are probably other phone book/contact apps out there on the market and others can point you in the direction of their favorite.
There is another app called Sync my pix which lets you bring over Facebook contact pics but I think that the 2.1 update due very soon gives you a better Facebook for Android app that lets you sync Facebook and your phone.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Android!
these are small issues, but somehow dissapointing
will I be able to sort my contacts with the OS upgrade ??

I must admit, the flavour of this post is a little better than the one asking us to read the user manual for you
You're going to go through a big disappointment phase, noticing Android just isn't anywhere near as customisable as WM. This will soon turn into elation when you realise Android isn't anywhere near as buggy, ugly, or downright crap as WM.
Android 'works', WM doesn't - it's kina the between WM and Apple - you sacrifice some customisation but you get something nice in return that doesn't need quite so much anyway...
I don't think you'll ba able to sort your contacts - google "Android releases" or something to find out a little more about that... there's also a thread in here somewhere that lists a whole lot of changes.
also, think outside the square on this one - maybe just re-write them lastname, firstname and there you have it. of course that's a pain, but it's a method.
I think syncing with Facebook is part of 2.1 (not sure though).
My advice is to let go, and embrace the new platform for what it is - I went through a ton of pain moving from WM, but it was worth it!
Enjoy!
thank you k1sr
Soon there will be less Qs and more collaborations
Great to see u on here gtrab and I'm stoked for what's to come.
Imho once u get familiarized with android u will like it way more than winmo
I have been looking around a lot to find an application that lets me know how much I have left on my monthly "data" (for the HTC HD2)
I mean, I have 250mb per month I can use and I would like to keep an eye out on how much I use so I dont go over it.
Hope someone knows an application that can show me that!
Thanks in advance!
There has to be something!
Yes there is something
If you are able to read German look here:
http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/htc_h...chkeit_kostenkontrolle_verbrauchszaehler.html
If not in rough words a explanation:
make a new tab in sense
Manila Today Page (MTP)
run as a todayscreen plugin
Homescreen ++
voila
it looks on my hd2 like attached this:
I read something that i need a german language thing?
Wont I be able to use it in english?
hmmmm
good question ...
I can only say "no" because I do not have HS++ in German. Mine is running in English.

im looking for something like this too! bookmarking for future use
Homescreen++ is in english. The themes are pretty easy to write and modify. Here's the homepage (there are even some very nice manual).
Coupled with Mortscript one can reproduce most of Sense features at a fraction of the resources. Unfortunately HS++ never got the deserved attention (mostly because of OEM software hacking and piracy) and development is halted...
