Themes I added was Areo, besides the default all other themes are gone..
I made the choice to have ONE version besides one or more, just I found a cool medium between vanilla and limited 3rd party apps. I left out apps like the audio manger to save space, theres WMP why have ANOTHER music player?
different layout? get a skin
I'm pretty happy with this rom, NO Xing out issues and a decent program free memory

if the response to this rom is good. ill make a even more clean rom for you.

Sounds great.
The ROM looks very good but i experienced, the "OK"-Button sometimes seems not to work (using the stylus). Can anyone confirm this issue?
Happens to me f.e. after aligning the screen and installing programs

Double tapping does not always seem to work either. It seems the only sure-fire way to navigate is to tap start menu, and then go into today screen or programs or settings. Task Manager has so far been the only way I have been able to close items.
Barring that...I am loving how bare this rom is! With it connected to pc, active sync running...Storage= 47.46MB, in use 2.78, Free 44.69...Program= 51.96MB, In use 27.39, Free 24.57
Initial loading time seems a bit slow, but otherwise going from program to program is a breeze.
So how can this "OK" button issue be fixed, as it seems to be the only real setback to this.

nice clean ROM...wonder how much mem left after this installed...gotta try this.....get back soom...thanks alot....like the clean rom

maybe one of the senior members can help me out removing all the Touch Dllls in my kitchen, i used the one from double_004 cause i got TOO many errors on loons kitchen not sure why if its based off mattkr's kitchen since his was the first kitchen I used ever..

finally a vanilla rom! most of these roms are nice and stable but since i own a license to resco explorer i don't total commander and many of the other freeware apps. IMO resco is MUCH better than TC. i love google and WLS (rant) but i'm pissed @ ms right now for not adding my workplace to their db. i work for a new cvs/pharmacy store and we opened up back in february and a few months later a walgreens opened about 3 miles off from us and they are added and we aren't in yet. /rant

hi
Is it same version 5.2.1908 Build 18508.0.7.0, ported by Double_ofour mentioned in his post ?

Whats the base rom of this? There are many different base rom version numbers, and even different ports of the same version number. Would be helpful to know what this was built off of as some of them have various issues.

Another way is using the SIP's "OK"-Button.
Well I tested the whole weekend and I love it.
Unfortunately there's no touchflo integrated. (I love that cube) but i think, I can add it somehow. Have to search for it.

I hate Touch Flo lol
Version is CE OS 5.2.1437

Just have to say that this is an excellent ROM and the one I've been looking for, the only program that I don't need it's Tetris (btw it's not a good port), installed yesterday and works excellent (for me) after a few tweaks. I noticed that after speeding up the processor, the touch "X" problem dissapear.
It will get ran out of memory if you open a lot of programs (WM6 stuff) I just fixed removing reg entry for Windows Live.
Excelent work!!
Keep working, be happy!!!

Jbed backround running

Is there a way to make the "backround running" feature of Esmertec jbed pernamently enabled? I found out that when i run a java application from a direct shortcut (jbed.exe -run sx_) i don't have to change the regional settings to English. But i want the backround running enabled. Any ideas?

It does run in the background even when started from a link - doesn't it?

No unfortunatelly it doesn't I know that because i use mig33 for msn. When i load it from a shortcut the backround feature is not enabled. So when i leave mig33 running in the backround it disconnects. When i load it normally via jbed (and have backround running enabled) then it never gets disconnected even when it is running in the backround. So i was hoping for a solution for this... Anyone?

Edit: I stand corrected. I guess it was a coincidence that my pages "appeared" loaded from background restore. I took note today and in fact the pages are not loading in background.
My Original buffoonery:
Maybe I'm misunderstanding your issue, but I don't have any issue with letting a jbed app (such as opera mini loading a page when I need to check an email then go back to mini with page already loaded) continue to run in the back ground...as long as I don't 'exit' the app through some 3rd part task manager. For example, I use Quickmenu and have it set to 'close' all applications when hitting OK. I have excluded jbed from this and it only minimizes.

ı cant open mig33 with Cloudyfa_EsmertecJbed.. zalaros which program u use to open.. ı had same disconnection problem with esmertec java manager..

Menneisyys, any thoughts as to how we might accomplish forcing "background" either through an added command to a shortcut or, better, some permanent setting to the jbed kernel itself?
TIA!

keep backround running
i found a trick
that if i select backround running and then immediately install another version of jbed it will overite the current version but backround running will now be permanent although it is not ticked.
important you musn't delete the version of jbed that you have first just install over it and the machine will automatically uninstall the current version and install the new one.
afterwards using the same trick you can reeinstall the original one.
don't ask me why it works it just does also i can send you the names of the two jbed's that i use

jbeds you have used ?

Disable Software Keyboard

Hi guys!
I got my TP a week ago and this is my first post on this nice forum.
I think the phone is amazing; it's my first WM powered device, however there's something bothering me about the Software Keyboard. When I'm using the hardware keyboard and access a textbox on the screen (especially in the Opera browser) the software keyboard automatically pops up, although I don't really need it.
This feature may be very useful on devices which do not have a built in hardware keyboard, like the Diamond. But on TP I find it highly annoying.
Does anyone know if there's a way to disable this behavior?

dowload Advanced Config 3.2, install and change Input/Auto deploy SIP to Disable..

Thank you very much, that solved my problem. I had ACT installed, but I didn't notice this setting so far.
Edit: however, this setting does not affect the behavior of the Opera browser; maybe they'll fix this in a future version.

UR welcome..
every1 was a noob..i still AM..;-)

Hey! good tip! I never knew this...I was just living with the software keyboard always popping up.
Thanks!!!

don't know why, but i started to re-appear to me in some apps, even when i disable it..

Try this:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip>:
Create or change DWORD TurnOffAutoDeploy from 0 to 1
(Sorry, this is exactly what Advanced Config does)

Hello, guys!
I just found the solution for this problem.
There's a program called nullkeyboard (download from http://personales.ya.com/beemer/nullkeyboard.htm)
It's a SIP keyboard that does nothing (doesn't popup) and I think it's great to use it when browsing with opera or when using other apps that don't know that setting you mentioned.
I tried it and it works fine.

Exit contacts after making call

When I open contacts and chose a contact to make a call, after finishing a call phone application closes but contacts remains open.
Is there a way for contacts to close automatically after making a call?
thank you for answer in advance.
I have HTC touch cruise wih original WWE WM6.1 ROM.

Don't know about the default contacts app but i use iContact and it is set to close on use - problem solved.

thank you for answer. This iContact application looks good.
But problem is, since I use original ROM I can't remove original applications, and I
don't want to install any unnecessary application, especially if it is double.
I do that only if it's really neccessary (like Skyfire because of flash).

The installation of iContact will remap the "Contacts" soft key to itself so in all honesty you wont see the built in app unless you actively seek out th eshortcut created fo rit. The one on your Start menu will also be remapped.
For me its one of the must have apps to get a finger friendly PPC.

I understand I won't see original application. But it will be there. And that is what I don't like. I don't like hidden unneccessery things in windows on my PC or PPC. So I would like to find a solution with original application (which is finger frendly BTW). This is it's only lack. And inability to hide SIM contacts which doesn't bug me that much.
But if I don't find solution I will definitely try this application. And maybe you can suggest me best version since I found more of them here on xda-developers.
Thank you

You can't remove the original version as it's provided in the ROM and so without cooking your own ROM it can't be removed. The original is not overly finger friendly unless you have wee fingers.
Given your dislike of duplication of software does this mean you surf using IE.
Personally i am using the Burt Edition v6.4.5 of iContact.

unfortunately if you'd like to change preferences on your device... and enhance it, you will also have to install new applications as not all default apps can be changed the way we want.
you have a touch cruise. it's a strong device, with enough memory to hold lots of applications. don't worry about it.

Ok. I know I have to install new apps and to try things if I want to enhance performance of my mobile. And I do that. I try things and I have to hard reset sometimes because of it. And I know my phone is capable of having a lot applications installed. That's why I bought it.
I just want to find the solution that pleases me the best.
And because original application is good enough to me, except this exit problem, I think best solution would be to have original application and make it close after use.
I don't like having double applications because of my experience with windows. Everything in registry decreases performance and if I have a few applications for same thing there's usually some kind of conflict.
But as I said I do try things in search of best solution, so I tried iContact.
It really is great application, much much better than original. and much more finger friendliy.
I decided to keep it.
And then I noticed that my cube freezes after using iContact. It seems to be a common problem and I found no solution for it.
So I'm back on the beginning.
Anyway, thank you for your help, ideas and suggestions.

where do i begin? trying to find the right plugin for TP2

I've just gotten the AT&T Tilt2 this Dec 31 and I have been trying to figure out how to really customize the today themes. however, because nearly everyone here uses cooked roms, i just can't seem to figure out how to find plugins that can work with stock winMO 6.5 on my Tilt2. I have a few particular things I would like to set for my today themes but I need to learn even the very basic of the themes on my Tilt2 first, such as TouchFLO 3D. but what do I call the window default? so far I think it's titanium? and what about the even older looking theme that I see when I don't have either the "titanium" and TouchFLO 3D?
Basically I want easy view (or access) of the weather forecast, time, agenda, task, and messages (combined SMS, MMS, and e-mails). I would also love to be able to launch select few apps from there.
How do I go about setting this up when I do not even know how to find out all of the relevant info I needs? (believe me, I've tried to use the search functions but i can't seem to find any newbie-friendly explanations).
Sorry if I seem to be cluttering up this subforum, but I really really want to figure out how to set this up so I can truly use my tilt2 efficiently in this way in preparation for my next semester at college.
Thanks for any and all info.
P.S. I know that I will be suggested to go ahead and try to flash some roms into this tilt2 but i would rather find out of these plugin first so I can be sure that I would have all of the functionality without having to do that if I can.

Welcome to the forums!
TouchFlo and Titanium are today plugins.
This means that when you siable them both, you get the standard WinMo today screen.
You can disable them by going into start/settings/today. There you can disable the items you don't want.
To have more plugins for titanium, you can go here. There you can find various extra plugins, like weather.
For TouchFlo, there aren't any plugins.
I hope this helps, if you have got more questions you may always PM me.
And next time, ask questions in the Q&A section. I know that forum gets less attention but we need to keep this section clean for themes only. Thanks.
Cheers,
EC

Okay no problem, just next time.
As I said you can revert to the old standard windows mobile home by going to start/settings/personal/today/items and uncheck Titanium and Touchflo.
I don't know any standard home plugins, because I never used it.
If you deleted plug-ins you will need to hard-reset your Tilt2, or find a download somewhere.
EC

Moved to Q&A as not release.

You can use standard plugins. As was already said, just uncheck windows default and TF3D from today settings, and select whatever you want. I use Tonaya weather-2-go, Skyfire, Pocket Digital Clock, PDA Status, and SK T oday Commander (paid for). A lot of the freeware sites have many choices. I recommend PDA Status, it's really nice.
Anyway, I kind of agree with you on the UI's. I like having things in one place, and don't like having to scroll all over the place. If you're bored, you can check my sig and see how I have mine set up (don't flash it, though).

Frustrated
OK, I'm frustrated as hell trying to get some decent plug ins for my new phone. Just got a new Tilt 2, and really, really like the titanium weather plug in look, but cannot get it to operate on the phone. Am I missing something? The options for the today screen do not change after I install titanium weather (showaco, tried both of his v4.1 and 4.2 cabs), but a weather line shows up in the Windows default today screen. However, every time I try to get it set up, it gives me an error, essentially
(OK, I can't post a link (not trying to), but in the following, the xxxx was actually http)
'xxxx://hadle.accu-weather.com/widget/hadle/weather-data.asp?location=62002&metric=0' couldn't be opened.
also
Line 1 (\Program Files\TitaniumWeather\TitaniumWeather.mscr):link=ReadFile("xxxx://hadle.accu-weather.com/widget/hadle/weather-data.asp?location=&location&"&metric="&metric)
So, what am I missing, or am I installing an incorrect program? I'm brand new to any of this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Dale
