Intro:
- We got the best drivers and settings for TNT series, so i cooked a new build for TNT Series which is 5.2.1933 which gives very high performance and stability, tested for more than 2 weeks. So, i hope this will be nice for you.
- This build done using the drivers as modules, like the official releases.
- as most of you know the good things about TNT Series, it solves the most issues for WM6.0 in Wizard:
Quote:
- When you call someone and he didn't answer you get connected instead of call ended.
- When you call a busy number also you will get connected instead of busy
- When you have GPRS Connected and someone called you and you didn't answer this calling will shown as recieved call instead of missed
- When you have a call and recieve a call (waiting) and you didn't answer, this calling will shown as recieved call instead of missed.
- When you open start/settings/Phone then directly press ok button, your personal tone will change to the default
- Some of roms have the issue with cannot open the wifi from the first time
- When you change the notification to vibration, then change it again to ring mode, the device still on vibration till you play your ring again or change your ring
- some roms can't start the wifi directly
- MMS 4.2.8.1 sounds and files pluging error (if you right click on the file don't show send via MMS)
Base Rom:
5.2.1933 build 18533.0.7.0
OS: 11.0.0.1 << as you know, 11.x.x.x is for TNT Series or based on
Editions:
too many users asked me to create a rom with adding the touch scrolling, and also others asked me to have more stuff in the TouchFLO edition, what i did for them!!! i create a rom with all professional+HTC home stuff with Touch scrolling feature without the cube, and the cube you can add it manually by an Add On (tested for 4 days and very very well). And all other editions don't include any of Touch stuff or driver. So, we have some new edits on the choices, you have to read carefully to know which version is suitable for you.
Vanilla Edition:
nothing, just the base rom and OEM drivers;
no camera, no MMS, no WML, no Office... etc
so don't ask for the kitchen, just extract official build using Core kitchen then use the SYS folder and OEM packages from this, then add whatever you want.

===============================
Screen Shuts:
General Notes: (Please Read before updating)
-Remove SD card while updating.
- the two bluetooth icons on the tray launch, you can open their menus by double click or click and hold.
- Before asking, give us your edition (professional or TouchFLO...)
- if your rom has PIMBackup older than 2.5, install PIMBackup 2.5 and do the backup via it.
- SMSDrFix not activated, you have to open it to replace the numbers with their contact name on messages.
- If you open Advanced Config, the battery icon on the tray launch will disappear, you have to restore it using Advanced Config.
- There is no IPL, SPL, ... JUST OS and splashes, so i think its safe for G4 users.
- Radio 2.19.11 UK more stable and fewest issues and no missed calls.
- You MUST have an IPL and SPL at 2.xx or higher (BOTH not just one or the other).
- High recommend to reflash an official rom before flash this one.
- there are two update utilities on the rar file, one for XP and the other for Vista. But if you have Vista you have to visit this thread, then use Vista utility (Worked for me "i have Vista").
- If you want to improve A2DP; edit it by any Tweaking app like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291770 or search for that
- If you change some thing, you have to wait for a minute before restarting to make sure the device get your changes.
- If you have any issue with A2DP visit this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308752, (previous rom version dosn't contain any issue).
- Are you beginner?? go to Howto flash a Wizard... a little tutorial! (Sticky Thread).
- Are you an arabic user?? go to the wonderful arabic forum which is www.ce4arab.com
TouchFLO Notes:
- go to start/programs/Touch/TFSettings , then set the way you want to activate the cube
- if you want high performance, install Battery Status from Add Ons section
================
Some other Notes:
- i didn't add mfrazzz RIL fix for the radio.
- i suggest you to use battery status last version which on the Add Ons.
- because of the internet temprory files saved on storage card, sometimes you find storage card 2 for your SD, this thing happened to me when i open Advance Config without storage card installed.
-Anyone using Rogers canada network, very high recommended to use 2.19 UK, the link on the Notes. (tnx benjaminries)
- If your memory running very low, you have to reflash your device with official WM 5.0 to fix this.
- All TNT cabs on the Add Ons will be installed on Windows Directory.
- The installing at the 1st time you use these series are not ExtROM, just customizations.
- your Device is G4!!! do you have problems not shown with others??, i suggest to reflash the latest WM 5.0 official then use the new G4 update tool from here.
Q&A:
Q- how can i remove battery level at the top of screen?
A- open WinXplore then startup folder and remove battery level.lnk (you can use file explorer on the folder windows/startup)
Downloads:
Before downloading : i really spent so much time to produce this thing and looking for the careless things by someother cookers just to give you something very high quality, so please donate by any simple dollors here. and please if you can donate for tom_codon because he is the 1st assistant on my releases from here

YOU DON'T HAVE IDEIA HOW I MUCH I EXPECTED THIS!!
i need to be beta tester for next release or i die waiting ;P
Hello. I really like "Official" edition, but how do I get VoIP ? in add-ons it says that VoIP is for TouchFLO.
What about VoIP for "Official" ?
AWESOME!!!
I'm downloading Professional + HTC Home right now. Is there any way to replace the weather module (since the cities I would like to display will probably never be in there) with something like spb weather?
Thanx.

I don't know if it's fake or not. But, I love the cube animation in the Karmba_a 6.2 EN-18548 Trinity ROM
Nice Rom Similar to PDAViet
Thank you, seems fast, encounter a warning sign in Peek Pocket, and just like Pdaveit, a pop up come up when pressing start every now and then, I'm guessing it is Veitnamese ?
GREat and lovely ROM......... Supaaa fast
Mirror please
Can anyone post an alternative mirror.
Rom is great, quite "light", and very fast.
But i misses one thing - touch keyboard, like I had i black diamond 3.1. Anyone knows where can i get it?
Thanks boy! Just flashed the rom and still testing it. I've installed PocketCM and PCMKeyboard and they are working great. However, I tried installing Voice Command 1.6 from XDA-R4 thread, it works great. Except for when I bind the to button4(hold) and if I hold the button too long, voice command just cancels and not take command.
Nice
So far so good, stable and quick, need to do some more testing though.
Does anyone have the "You got message" jingle for text messages ?

Thank to HONGKONG for this ROM so good
Amazing, I changed tsk Seems quick smooth. Memory low, when i loaded playlist. I am sure its my issue. Changed from XDA to this & great so far. XDA was hanging after 2 months.
I cant find clear temp "cab" for this? any help plz
This ROM is amazing! The fastest and responsible ROM I've ever used in my Wizard! Great Job!
Man! you ROCK!!!!
I have tried by months tnt roms and let me congrats your effort!
I have a couple of questions for you...
1.- Why your OS version on IPL spl screen its 11.0.3.0? its a copy from TNT roms?
2.- I think That with all that stuff like vista seems to be much more for omap processor, that omap overclock at init does the work, its fatser than anyone but with a battery life reduces, can you do something for this issue? that its no issue i think its great
3.- On my device... an Icon appear at the upper bar on today screen, its a triangle that seems to be a conection by my telephone operator, it cause a cost extra?
4.- its amazing your rom, too much fixes for the tnt roms like the cube, IR, Audiomanager in htc home.
Congratulations Again! I like your rom!

Onyx FAQ (Part 1 of 2)
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Part 1 of 2
Part 2 of FAQ is here (it's the next post in this thread)
First Time Users (Newbs)
Q. To what device can I flash Onyx?
A. This forum and this ROM are for GSM (SIM card) versions of HTC's 2007 Touch (Elf/Elfin) only. Please use common sense -- it's NOT for Vogue/Diamond/Cruise/HD/Omnia/Viva etc.
Q. I'm new... How do I install Onyx?
A. Follow these steps:
Optional: Find your device's CID and Device ID
Optional: Make a backup of the stock ROM currently on your phone. If you have saved a shipped ROM that matches your CID and Device ID, then you can skip this.
Install an IPL/USPL or HardSPL which removes the CID lock on your phone. HardSPL 3.10 and IPL 3.10 are recommended. (NOTE: HardSPL 3.14 causes increased battery drain!)
Flash Onyx when the above steps have been completed
After the ROM is flashed, and you completed the screen calibration, allow the Customization to start and finish. DO NOT reset the device during customization, because it performs necessary configurations for the ROM.
Ask about CID unlocking questions in another thread, not here... Or read the stickies at the top of the forum.
Q. After flashing Onyx, can I restore all programs that I backed up in my previous ROM (e.g. with Spb Backup)?
A. This is not recommended because it will mess up the registry. You can however restore your PIMs (calendar, contacts, SMS, etc.) without issues. To restore your old programs (CABs) automatically, use the User Customization method (see this link for details).

Onyx Versions
Q. What are the differences between Onyx Ultimate/Micro/Jr. and Onyx 5.x (and later)?
A. Please see the first post for a comparison chart. To add back missing programs, see below. You can automatically install them with the UC method.
WM6.1 Phone Canvas - more memory usage, has vibration-on-connect feature
WM6.5 Phone Canvas and more from HTC Mega (YouTube etc.)
YouTube: see attachment at the bottom of the FAQ
HTC Album: this is required for the Photos tab in Jr.'s Manila2D to work
Arcsoft MMS
Large Title Bar: see attachment at the bottom of Part 2 of the FAQ (next post)

Keyboards and SIPs
Q. I changed my Keyboard setting to another language but now the keyboard is blank!
A. You didn't install language files or configure them properly... See the answer in the next question.
Q. I want to change keyboard language to non-English.
A. Install languages from this thread (look for the post titled "Language Packs - QVGA"). When finished, go to Settings->Input->Full QWERTY->Options and select your language.
Q. How do I make my keyboard always use T9 without having to manually set it every time I open a new program (default is ABC currently)?
A. Open registry and set \HKLM\ Software\ Tegic\ eT9\ IME\ CarrierDefaultTextMode to either 1 (T9 always) or 0 (ABC always).
Q. I would like to back up my ET9 words database before I hard reset or re-flash device.
A. Back up these files in \Windows: eT9Rudb.Rdb, eT9Cdb.Cdb, eT9Asdb.Adb. Restore these files with Total Commander (the default File Explorer may not work).
Q. How do I make another keyboard (such as PCM Keyboard) as the default?
A. Two steps:
Go to registry @ HKCU\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps and remove the key called Startkey
Then install SIPChange and run it to select your default input method.
Q. How do I enable the old drop-down style of Word Completion for keyboard, block recognizer, etc.?
A. Read this post.
Q. How do I enable Letter Recognizer and Block Recognizer in input menu?
A. Open the registry and change the following:
For letter recognizer:
Code:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429690-AE04-11D0-A4F8-00AA00A749B9}\IsSIPInputMethod]
"Default"="1"
For block recognizer:
Code:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{42429691-AE04-11D0-A4F8-00AA00A749B9}\IsSIPInputMethod]
"Default"="1"
Q. Is Transcriber found in this ROM?
A. No. You can search, or else try the one found here.
Customizing Manila 2D
Q. I want to change the Manila 2D clock or skin.
A. Clocks and Skins thread is here!
Install themes with M2D Customizer.
If you just want an analog clock on top of the existing Onyx theme, see here.
Q. I want Manila 2D in another language.
A. Check here. Turn off M2D in Settings->Today->Items, copy the new files to \Windows, and then turn M2D back on.
Q. I want to add or delete tabs in Manila 2D.
A. Run the M2D Customizer tool.
Q. How do I install rain animation in Manila2D Weather tab?
A. Unzip the attachment at the end of this post. There is no other weather animation available for M2D.
Q. How do I change left/right soft key on the Home tab??
A. Follow the instructions here .
Q. I am having problems installing new themes with M2D Customizer.
A. Copy a newer version of M2D to \Windows. Make sure you are also not installing the Footprints tab onto the default M2D found in Onyx.
Other Manila 2D Related Questions
Q. I have lots of M2D questions not answered here.
A. I don't know everything, so please consult this thread.
Q. I want Chinese fonts for M2D or other programs.
A. Download font here.
Q. Audio Manager / WMP stops playing music when I turn off device.
A. You need your headphones plugged in for music to continue playing while turned off. Otherwise, use psShutXP to turn backlight off, so you can still hear music.
Q. How do I get 24 hour clock?
A. Go to Regional Settings.
Q. How do I show album art for songs in Audio Manager?
A. Follow the procedure here.
Q. I want to overclock my CPU while using Manila 2D.
A. Read this post.
Q. In Photos tab, photos aren't shown and Slideshow doesn't work.
A. Click on the "Album" soft key on the lower left, then select a folder and set it as your Favourite. Now when you go back to Manila you will see it working.
Q. The 'End' key doesn't take me back to Home tab.
A. Use a newer version of M2D.
Q. Alarm indicator on Home tab is off even though I set the alarm.
A. If alarm is coming up within 24 hours then it will show on the Home tab.
Q. During a reboot the SIM's PIN code prompt closes after a few seconds, and then TouchFLO starts up.
A. This is a known issue with Manila 2D. You can access the PIN code again when you start up the dialer.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Part 2 of 2
Other Questions
Q. I have problems connecting to WPA encrypted networks.
A. Try this.
Q. I want to install back the HTC Cube.
A. Cube is from 2007 and obsoleted by Manila2D and Titanium. Please search XDA for it.
Q. An animated battery charging icon appears on the screen whenever I turn off my device while charging.
A. Do not use SPL 3.14! It also drains battery faster.
Q. I can't send MMS or surf the web with my data connection.
A. Run Connection Setup under Settings->Connections.
Q. How do I get my external bluetooth GPS receiver working?
A. Read here.
Q. How to make my headset run another audio player other than Audio Manager?
A. Read
Q. I had software that worked in other ROMs but not in Onyx.
A. You need to upgrade your software because it is not compatible with WM6.1 drivers. Otherwise, I don't know and don't have time to test your software. As a last resort, download Onyx 3.2.1 from the download page, which is a WM6.1 ROM but has WM6.0 drivers.
Q. How do I disable vibration when phone connects?
A. Go to the Advanced tab for the phone options and disable it there.
Q. How do I increase ringer or system volume?
A. Go to the registry, and find the following parameter: HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\AUDIOGAIN\EAC_GAIN_EMBEDDED. Change it to a value between 67 (default) and 77 (maximum recommended) and then reboot. Don't go so high that it blows out your speaker! There are other registry entries under the AUDIOGAIN key which may apply to headset and mic volume. Simply search the forum for their functions.
Q. How do I increase in-call volume?
A. Low in-call volume usually happens because the caller on the other line has a bad connection to your phone. First, make sure you tried to increase the volume during a call by using the side volume button! This can only be changed during a call. Next, go to the registry and try this. Aside from that, I cannot think of any other solution.
Q. Audio Manager shuts down whenever I try to open it.
A. Delete the songs or format the card and copy the songs back.
Q. Audio Manager or other program shuts down instead of minimizing when I close it.
A. Click on the Task Manager on top right, go to its options to change the X button property.
Q. In Onyx Micro, how do I show battery status in title bar instead of the clock?
A. See this post.
Q. I don't see any Bluetooth icons on title bar when I enable Bluetooth.
A. The icons were disabled due to many requests (icons were taking up space and annoying). See here to add them back.
Q. TCPMP does not work in Onyx 4.0 or higher.
A. Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3263631&postcount=294. Otherwise, read this thread for a semi-working version and some discussion. TCPMP has issues with a lot of 6.1 cooked ROMs that use 6.1 official ROMs as a base.
Q. SRS WOW does not work in Onyx 4.0 or higher.
A. Try this one.
Q. I can't receive files by Bluetooth.
A. Turn Beam on.
Q. How do I change Menu Bar pop-up fonts back to regular size?
A. Go to the registry, and find the following keys:
\HKLM\ System\ GWE\ Menu\ BarFnt
\HKLM\ System\ GWE\ Menu\ PopFnt
For regular font, in both keys, change "Ht" to a decimal value of 800 (or hex value 320).
For large font, use a decimal value of 1050 (or hex value 41A).
Q. My SMS and mail messages suddenly disappeared after I restored them with PPC Pim Backup!
A. Don't restore your SMSes while the Messaging application is open. Ensure it is terminated with the Task Manager.
Q. I want threaded SMS.
A. Run Advanced Configuration tool and change the option under Messaging.
OR set registry: \HKCU\ Software\ Microsoft\ Inbox\ Settings\ OEM\ SMSInboxThreadingDisabled = 0.
Q. I cannot enable Wi-Fi in Comm Manager while it is connected to USB ActiveSync.
A. Try this link. If it still doesn't work, then also under Settings->Connections->USB to PC change the state of "Enable faster data synchronization". If this is unsuccessful, then just turn on Wi-fi under System->Connections->Wireless LAN.
Q. How do you zoom and rotate pics in HTC Album?
A. Use your fingertip: Stroke a full circle to zoom, and stroke a semi-circle to rotate. Hold down on the picture for a couple of seconds to move the picture around.
Q. I get errors when I try to uninstall/remove a program.
A. Maybe this post will help.
Q. PPC PIM Backup is really, really slow.
A. Make sure you don't restore Sent Mail or Trash Mail from your Text Messages. Also, in my own testing, on MOST ROMs, I have noticed that after restoring my PIMs, usually my device slows down so I have to do a soft reset to fix it.
Q. In Onyx Ultimate, I disabled SIM contacts in Advanced Configuration; however, they still come back after a reset.
A. For versions before 4.1, Follow the tip here. For 4.1 and later, remove the entire registry key for Cyberon under HKCU\Software \HTC \Bootlauncher\Services, and reboot.
Q. How do I get Arabizer to work?
A. See this post.
Q. Why is Wi-fi unable to turn back on after coming out of standby? It was working in version "x" but not in this new version.
A. No, this "issue" also happened in previous versions too. I never saw it happening on mine, and neither have a lot of of other people, so I don't know what the reason could be. Do not install programs that may interfere with its functionality, also do not have Bluetooth enabled.
Q. My program relies on SQL and it doesn't work.
A. Go here
Q. How do I access the registry?
A. Here.
Q. Can you give me some links to more useful add-ons, utilities, CAB files, etc?
A. Here you go:
All Microsoft Office CABs (Word, Powerpoint, Excel, OneNote)
Universal Page Pool Changer
Solitare and Bubble Breaker (download)

Onyx 6 (WM 6.5.x)
ONYX 6 - WM 6.5.x ROMs
THESE ROMS ARE FOR THE HTC TOUCH GSM ONLY - A QVGA DEVICE THAT USES SIM CARDS THAT WAS RELEASED IN 2007
This ROM includes the Windows Mobile 6.5.x Titanium home screen, a more finger-friendly layout (larger menus, the X button and Start menu moved to the bottom task bar) and the magnifying glass.
Helpful Tips for WM 6.5.x
IMPORTANT: TO TERMINATE/CHANGE BETWEEN RUNNING APPS:
For Release 8 and newer: press on the X to minimize app; or to terminate/switch app, click on the top left corner of screen to launch ArkSwitch by Arktronic
For Release 7 and earlier: press on the X to close app, or press + hold the Start menu icon to launch Showcase Suite by amarullz
To arrange shortcuts in the Start menu, simply press+hold on the shortcut until it lifts up, then drag it to wherever you want it.
To bring up the magnifying glass, click on the top taskbar.
To change the input method, press and hold on the keyboard icon for a couple of seconds.
To select multiple files in File Explorer, simply use the small stylus keyboard and use the Ctrl or Shift button to select multiple files. In Total Commander, you can also use the "CTL" button on the bottom right of the screen.
To prevent the lag for the lock slider after turning on the device, create an empty file called "welcome.not" on your SD card before you perform a flash or hard reset. More details here.
Answers to Common Questions
READ THE ONYX FAQ
If you have increased battery drain, I cannot help you. Elfs were not designed for the load required by WM6.5.
Manila2D will not be cooked into these ROMs, due to high memory usage. Click here to install a working M2D from HTC Mega. You can use the UC method to install it automatically after every re-flash.
Compact QWERTY keyboard will not work in text fields in Internet Explorer and in MSN widgets. For these cases, use Full QWERTY layout or a different keyboard instead.
To remove 3rd-party Titanium plugins like Weather and Favourite People: first disable Titanium ('Windows Default') under Settings->Personal->Home, then uninstall the plugin under Settings->System, then re-enable Titanium. For more customizations to the Titanium page, search for "CHome Editor".
To configure the Weather panel: Go to the tab, Select Forecast Options, hit Cancel to go back, and then run Full Update. Wait a few seconds for the home screen to refresh with the weather update.
NOTE: To find your weather location code:
Go to http://www.accuweather.com/rss-center.asp
Enter your city name for "Choose a Location", and then press "Set"
Your location code should appear at the end of the URL (e.g. NAM|CANADA|ON|OTTAWA)

Thanks...and I know ;-) This is just a tease before the TF2D.
You can still install the TFD home screen on top of this. Also this ROM should run faster (as far as I know).

yeah. your rom cubeless and this is good for tf2d. after installing tf2d my cube runs very laggy. i can't disable it but i can flash your rom.
but it's a good behaviour that waiting for stable tf2d version. i'm using it right now but it's a little buggy(music player, weather, etc).i think as soon as touch viva and touch 3d are released things will change very fast.
p.s. sorry for bad english
hehe! u can consider this as a prologue to the TF2D rom releases. and its optimized as well. since i know dsixda tested the OEM pack as well on this rom. so the TF2D shud run smoother on this rom compared to other roms available so far.
I'm going to flash this rom in a minute Love the way you went back to the WM5 menu ^^
Good work
Feels really good to see this ROM-release
Congrats man!
You're an example to all out there..

"FingerPressure" registry setting still takes the default setting after flashing; probably requires Mortscript or startup CAB. You can use Schap's tool to change it too (it's installed on this ROM)

what values would it be when it would not revert to default?
I have a little CAB file here which may resolve things:

5000 is an optimal value. Using the included Schap's Advanced Configuration, go to HTC TouchFLO/Finger Pressure and change that value (around 2600 currently) to 5000. I find this number perfect for scrolling through contacts.
well dsixda, I have to say .. This is one fast ROM just changed the finger pressure setting manually and everything works smooth as silk Installed SMS-Chat, FunContact, Winterface, ... and the touch is flying ty for your hard work!
Very impressed so far. This rom has just about everything I like so we must have similar tastes.
Not tested it thoroughly yet (new roms have a tendency to play nice for a few days and then start doing odd things) but so far so good.
Thanks!
i'm late to congratulate but my best wishes for u
Transcriber
Okay, a very strange behaviour here. I like using Transcriber. If I use it with this rom (not seen this happen before) it loses all settings each time it starts (e.g. pen width, color etc). The settings in the registry are not lost when it restarts, it seems to reset the settings just as Transcriber starts.
Could someone else confirm if this is happening with them also?
Thanks.
congrats
a kind cooker for a nice rom
First of all many thanks to All XDA & PPC-Geeks Members.
Special Thanks to :

(Believe me, if seniors like dsixda, vadyarik et al would not have moved to newer phone's ROM development, I would not have even tried to build my ROM).
Attention Please : Starting from build 21899, there will be Full as well as Lite version of ROMs.

Note :
- Flash this ROM on your own risk as I am not responsible for any damage to your phone.
- Before flashing backup your data using PIM backup utility.
- All the testing has been done on an Elfin. Enthusiast are encouraged to try on an Elf.
- Blue-tooth is not tested for all the functionality.
- Only WWE edition is tested.
A Humble Request :
- Please do not ask me to cook the ROM with newer builds of WM 6.5.
- I have already tried to cook the ROM for 21857, 23009, 23034 builds.
- Comparing all these builds and poking around the development and hacking threads on XDA and PPCGeeks, I came to conclusion that, the build 218xx is quite stable and has less number of bugs.
- Also the 230xx series of builds in under development at Microsoft's side itself. So it does not make sense to me to build a ROM out of those.
- If a stable, less buggy build is out then, I will definitely try to cook the ROM using it.
- Having said that, please note no offence is meant here. .

Tips and Tricks
1. Threaded SMS :
You can disable the Threaded SMS using the Advance Configuration Tool.
2. In Call Volume (Not 100% sure of this method) :
Have a look in the registry (Use PHM Registry Editor) at HKCU/ControlPanel/SoundCategories/InCall
Key: InitVol
The default should be 5. If it lower than that set it to that. If it is at 5 crank it up to no more than 10 and see if that works for you.
3. Windows 7 Splash Screen :
Link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561679&page=2).
Credits to : harfuch
4. Debug Log Problem :
Manifests itself as big log file created at \cedebug.
- Delete the registry key and its sub keys : "HKLM\Software\HTC\DebLogger"
- Save and Reboot.
- Now delete the cedebug folder at root of phone.
5. S2U2 and HTC Mega Phone Canvas (Applicable to 21867 version 1.0) :
- It looks like there is some issue with S2U2's caller-id and HTC Mega Phone Canvas.
- It manifests itself if you enable the S2U2's caller-id functionality with symptoms as : Unable to attend the call with S2A slide bar/hardware button. Only the call can be disconnected using the hardware button.
- The work around for this is to : disable the S2U2's caller-id from the S2U2 settings. For more details see the S2U2 thread. After you disable the caller-id, the usual HTC Mega Phone canvas's screen comes up whenever you receive a call.
6. Uninstall S2U2 (Applicable to 21867 version 1.0) :
- In case you are not comfortable using the S2U2, kindly uninstall it from Settings -> System -> Remove Programs.
- A word of caution here is : Since I have removed WM6.5 lock screen, you will have to live with WM 6.1 style lock screen.
7. Vibrate on Connect :
- Set the following registry key using PHM registry editor
HKLM\Software\OEM\Keystate\UseService to 1
- Note : Not tested by me as I don't use this feature
8. Change the default System Font :

Congratulations chota_shivaji!
Some of us Elf(in) owners love built-in M2D ROMs. Your release definitely should meet the criteria. I may not be able to directly feedback yet but hope to do so when I have the time to flash. Good job!
congratz on your rom
great I think you have used this for quite a while... will flash this as soon as possible

- Yes I have been using this ROM almost since last week.
- One of the point of concern is : Battery Drain.
- I have observed that, with 100% charged battery without using WiFi/GPRS, it lasts for about ~36 hours (1.5 days). This includes nominal phone calls (5 - 10) of (1 - 3) minutes.
- No idea if this is poor/average/above average etc.
- Maybe now the time has come to check how to reduce the battery consumption.
just flashed and I can say this is a real great release.... I am testing it now on a wifi... have not tested the bluetooth yet... I believe it would run well on an ELF because there are not much of an application was embedded on the ROM
Hi All,
- Awaiting for the feedback. Especially from the Elf users.
- Also awaiting for the battery life and blue-tooth reviews.
Tried it on ELF, works great!!
But running really low on memory, after a reboot my phone just has 12.5MB free mem
Any scope for a lite version?

But running really low on memory, after a reboot my phone just has 12.5MB free mem

- I will see if I am able to build a Lite version for Elf.
- But unfortunately I cannot gurantee for it or an approx ETA as I am getting quite busy @ office.
Hi All,
- Just uploaded the ROM for build 21864.
- Further removed some packages.
- As usual all the required testing is done on an Elfin. Elf users are encouraged to check this ROM for memory usage. Hope this one is better than previous.
- Seems to have better battery life.
Give it a try and let me know the feedback.

Can you try the ROM with build 21864 if possible?
ROM with build 21851 had the deblogger registry ON which was one of the reason for low memory.
@ chota_shivaji, congratz on your release

Thanks man for the wishes. ROM cooking would not have been possible without help from you and other XDA users.
Thanks for you rom, I'm trying it right now
Great ROM, lite and slim an not at all laggy And even the rain animation is smooth
One problem with the latest release 21864 - no mail synched from Exchange can be opened - it tries to open the message when clicked (both from inbox and mail tab in M2D), that can be noticed by "Outlook E-mail" shown in title bar, but the window remains the same and even responds to clicks.
Maybe you shouldn't have removed Outlook enhancement from ROM.
Tried after a clean install and hard reset.
With a previous build no such bug found.
And keep up the good work

- Thanks a lot for your valuable feedback.
- This reminds me to check this functionality as well in my testing of ROM.
Having said that, can you please comment on battery life and RAM usage? The difference between 21851 and 21864 are result of "Get more RAM for Elf users" and hence the probable cause of bug.
As for battery life, I can't tell presently - simply becuase of extensive reflashing (did a lot af that in last week )
Will post back when I first run out of battery after a full charge (but my data might be not accurate though, since my Elfin and her battery is 1.5 years old...
Now about memory: 69.35 of 107.62 free (M2D + ActiveSync only)
It's for 21851

- Many thanks for the feedback.
- I hope you have deleted the deblogger registry key.
