Palm Treo 500v start menu... - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development

Hi there, good afternoon.
Just got one of these new Treos, and I must say is quite a good gadget
There are a few things I dont like, but not too major apart from the bloody Start Menu, from the left soft key...
This is, of course, from the Vodafone crap installed on the phone, and I'd love to get rid of it.
Does anyone know how to do this? to get rid of the menu that Vodafone has put on this Treo 500v ROM? and use just the original WM6 normal Start Menu, many thanks

Wrong board my friend, here is for HTC Universal

Yes wrong forum, but for your info, hard reset the device, then as customisations starts to run, soft reset the device, the carriers apps will not be installed. Bear in mind you will loose all information on the device by doing this, so back it up first.

Sorry to post this here, my mistake, I already posted it on the General modification forum, cheers

I'll try that trick now, but when exactly do I have to do the soft reset? when I see the Windows Mobile 6 window? or after? thanks for the info

The Best Tilt ROM ???

I've trying to read through the forum but I cant seem to find a solid ROM that everyone agrees on... So whats the best ROM out there?
Come on lol
Ow gd, it is starting here also... Try the ROM's yourself! Try and try until you find something you like. Evereybody has different wishes, so there is no 'perfect' ROM that suits everybody's wishes. Read through the specs and see which ROM you like most.
i did an easy search on xda dev google for kaiser best rom. found this. next time, please use all the great tools that we have.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1600408
the tilt and kaisers aren't that much different.
helmi also created some cooked tilt roms, but everyone says it all before, no one is all going to agree on one rom. If you don't want to go through all the trouble loading the roms like many of us have, then stick with the HTC shipped rom. There is a reason why HTC made it the standard.
I have to tell you, the stock AT&T Tilt ROM (once you delete all the craplets) actually has excellent performance and is very stable.
It blows the doors off of anything I ever had on my Hermes!

The tilt and kaiser come with touch flow straight from the factory
also, please learn what a caps lock key is
I use the BigStorage htc one on my tilt. I must say, it's just as stable as the at&t rom, has more room, and I'm not missing any apps or anything that I would want or need. It's got a lot of the registry hacks I'd want, updated black keyboard, PIE fix, and a TON of room. Kudos to the developer.

But I want to know which craplets you are talking about and how to remove them?
I want to remove the followings:
"Get TeleNav" message from "Today"
"Media Net",
AT&T Mall;
AT&T Music
All the games
Cellular video
Actually, I want to remove any AT&T paid services.
Thank you in advance.
What is "cingular pre_midlets"? Can I remove it from program
In setting/syste/remove program, I can see an entry for "Cingular pre_midlets".
What happen if I remove it? What's that one for? for java programs?
Thanks.

hard reset you tilt and when the additional phone customizing starts, soft reset.
Hello Everybody.
I bought my tilt from ebay, and the software was already customized with a ROM. I didnt know, but i knew it was different because, I have 8525 and the ROM is not the same.
My question is, that I updated my Tilt with a new ROM from Dutty's I think its the 04/29/08 version. Theres nothing wrong with this ROM, but I will like to go back to the one I had.
I want to go back to the ROM that I had, and the version is from Feb and it was TOUCH.
I dont know, if the TOUCH ROM is compatible with the Tilt, but that was installed on my phone before I upgraded to the new one for Dutty's.
If can someone help me to find this ROM thanks.

Unbloated stock ROM all the way.... (For me anyway)

Orange UK - HTC TyTn II - Newbie Questions

Hi,
I have had my HTC TyTn II from Orange UK for 3 days now, I love the phone but hate the fact that Orange have removed windows live messenger, and customised the home screen (not in a good way in my opinion!).
Here are the version numbers I see as the phone starts:
R 1.27.14.32
G 22.45.88.07H
D 1.81.00.00
I have been reading up on this forum for the past few days and have decided the best way to get rid of the Orange customised screen and the lack of windows live messenger would be to flash the TyTn II with a different ROM, maybe the original HTC ROM??
Obviously my main concern is bricking my phone, and also voiding the warentee, so i'm basically looking for advice on my best course of action?
I have read that the first thing I should do is load HardSPL (which I understand is a modified bootloader?) my current bootloader versions show as: (obtained by powering up the phone with the camera button pressed)
KAIS130
SPL-1.81.0000
CPLD-8
..but won't even this first step of replacing my bootloader void my warentee, or can it be reversed?? Can I take a backup of my entire phone (including bootloader) in it's current state so that it can be restored if need be?
Can anyone give me some advice / point me in the right direction of where I should start, as I am scared of breaking my new phone, as people on other sites have said they have done!!
Thanks in advance,
Regards
Richard
Read this tread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365497
then:
Read all the wiki's and stickies for Your device (Kaiser, right).
Use Search to find out about things whick is not clear.
Best of luck!
Personally, I would go for it.
yes to hardspl
then I wouldnt settle for a stock rom - I would go for a cooked one- like dutty's.
You will void the warranty, and as far as I know there is no way back from this.
But that is what this site is all about. Ignore the #2 poster, I can see you have read all you can and you seem to have the right idea about this. So go on.
Just do all of the HardSPL steps and then install a Cooked ROM.
You won't look back. At the moment I suggest you stay away from the 6.1 ROMs until a stable one emerges.
I have an Orange Kaiser.. the branding is really crappy compared to the HTC stuff, god knows why they changed it!
Anyway, I thought I'd retain my warranty for the time being.
So I removed the Orange Home app, installed the HTC Home with 5 buttons, the HTC WMP skin, HTC Calc skin and Kaiser Tweak - all from here and it's much better now.
I expect I could save some memory and get it running a little faster without the Orange ROM, but for the time being it's fine.

Do it.. BUT READ EVERYTHING ON THIS FORUM FIRST RELATING TO FLASHING ROMs. Once you have read it, read it again and ensure you understand it. That way it is unlikely you will brick the device.
I had my TYTN II for a week or so and then flashed it to a new ROM... would never consider going back to the orange one...unless of course it needs to go back as a faulty device. ( there are original orange ROMs to revert back to on here if you ever need them)
It's interesting to see you have the .32 radio on yours.....Mine was shipped with .29 so I may now consider flashing my radio ROM.. how are your signal strengths and GPS lock times??

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
With what? I had the .32 and couldn't find a copy of it anywhere. I wanted to keep a backup in case of warranty return but I inadvertently flashed the wrong rom yesterday resulting in a new radio and SIM lock
Obviously removing the SIM lock was easy enough but now I can never revert back to my original radio.
The main reason I wanted to re-flash the radio was to see if my wifi problems could be resolved since most of the reports I have seen about the wifi issue relate to UK Orange phones... No luck there either and it's really starting to stress me out
Someone has told me they might have a contact at Orange dev to get a copy of the original rom but I'll believe that when I see it
Anyway, back on topic... even though I've no way to revert back my radio for warranty return, I'm glad I'm rid of the Orange bloatware and will never look back.
Duttys rom looked and felt nice but I had Bluetooth issues with that so have gone back to stock HTC rom for now. HTC home plus the Home customiser, some new icons, quickMenu and that'll do it nicely for me
One word of advice though.... after you've installed hardSPL, CID and SIM unlocked, you'll never be able to put the device down. I don't even want to think about the amount of time I've spent flashing and playing with it since then

I Need Help With Atom Exec

i got an atom exec its actually not mine its my little brothers atom exec. His hardware button seems not to be functioning etc; Phone Button, Start & Message Button. Can anyone teach me how to remap the keys or anything that i need to install to get it work. thanks

Before remapping, always try (if you haven't already done so) to go through a soft reset. Sometimes, they keys get "locked" because some program in WM is not responding...
BTW, which OS are you running?
i tried soft resetting still nothing happen its running on Windows Mobile 5. i could not Upgrade it to 6.1 because my lil bro killed the bootloader
try a hardreset n c what happens....or get some soft key manager n try with it...
Hbutton actually works pretty good. I used it a few times and it does a good job for the remapping. If you feel confident enough with the Registry, you can also do it that way.

Can you flash with an original shipped rom? (you know, the RUU from the manufacturer) That normally requires no interaction with the device since the software automatically puts the device into bootloader. I will try to find the Registry keys. There was a good post with all that information a while back... I'll see if I can find it.

I guess I should read a little more carefully since you mentioned this in an earlier post.
Look at this that I stumbled upon while browsing the Atom forums. Look at posts 214 thru 216. There is an app that is called resetbootloader.exe.... I guess this might be what you need.

See if you can downgrade the bootloader by following this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358704&highlight=downgrade+bootloader
First you [highlight]must[/highlight] make sure that this is for your phone. If it doesn't work, try to find a program called HButton (it can be found in the Dev and Hacking section), this will do the same thing as the Registry edits, but with a nice UI
Sorry but this is the limit of my knowledge... in theory, replacing the bootloader might fix what your little brother did, but then again, I am not certain since I do not own the device. Also, you may want to consider that the hardware buttons can be busted as well. Just a thought.
Good luck!
thanks again hehe it gave me alot of home lol but could not get it working. Maybe someone could give more solution on how to activate the DPads back lol hehe. The Problem Started when my Lil bro installed Touch Shell 3.0 thats what he said to me this morning... lol maybe some software aren't that friendly at all

I have used Touch Shell 3 (in a Blue Angel) and it shouldn't do anything like that (especially not busting your bootloader)... I have a feeling that your little brother is not telling you something or that his story is only half of what happened
As far as the "no stylus"... why not? I can understand that your DPad might not be working, but why not the stylus? If you lost it and need to reach the "Reset" button, just do what I do... use a paperclip (I have lost about 5 styluses and on the last one I said "screw it" )
One last suggestion, you could try to remove both battery and back up battery to clean the memory... I guess that would probably act as a hard reset for the device.

[REQ] Proper Cheesed off :( Beer Tokens available

My Touch Pro is a uk vodafone branded one, their branding of the TP absolutely sucks so, like my Kaiser, I have customised it.
However, I can't quite get it where I want it which is effectively the stock htc theme *.tsk and TF3D with the 'globe' internet tab, 'green' toggles on the comm manager and green highlight focus.
I have installed LantisOS TF3D with HD Contracts which gives me everything but the above mentioned.
I have searched and searched on this site but cannot quite find the tweaks that I would like. I don't want to flash another ROM as this is beyond my capability, I tried a number of routes to get what I want, I have tried;
tlr-manila
12aeon manila
Both do the same as the Lantis OS TF3D, they don't modify the internet tab or the comm manager or the highlight focus.
I have also tried using a theme installing using Diamond TF3D Config, still the same issue. I have also tried the following programmes too;
manila customizer
uitweak
Still the same
So, any help would be much appreciated beer tokens can be made available too.
Flashing a new rom is easier than it sounds. The guys here make things much more difficult than they actually are. I have the Vodafone TP and am using NATF's Standard 4.7 ROM. I followed these instructions to flash it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008
Agreed. My Touch Pro is my first WinMo device & I've only had it for 2 months. It must be on its 7th or 8th custom rom by now. Just dooooo it!
Take it step by step & you won't have a hassle - HardSPL -> Custom ROM -> new radio/rilphone.dll & you're sorted. Just don't flash a GSM ROM to a CDMA device and vice versa & you'll be fine.
Thanks for the help chaps, will have a look.
Ok, have decided for the moment not to change the ROM so still looking for help please.
Hi,
I have a vodafone branded HTC - though I didn't get it from vodafone.
I use ROMeOS and that gives me the "normal" touchflo tab buttons (though I now use IphoneToday)
I'm only a noob and I managed to flash my phone following those instructions (make sure you backup your stuff though) Plus I'm a girl, so it must be easy!

Not to worry, acceptance IS after all the first step. You're well on your way. If you pop down to the southern bit of Africa, I'll guide you through the process.
It's really not that big a deal and it adds the novelty of having a 'new' phone every couple of weeks. Just read up a bit in the ROMs forum and once you feel comfortable, then read some more. And if something does go awry don't freak out - there are a lot of smart chaps on this forum.
Case in point: Day after I got mine I hurriedly flashed a Touch HD radio to the phone. Suffice it to say that the phone didn't appreciate this much & I feared I sorted myself a very expensive paperweight. But after I dug out the trusty Nokia N95 and popped on here to READ some more, I got it sorted again.
Then again, I only made the mistake because I didn't read enough beforehand.
*DISCLAIMER*
Although I am encouraging you to take the plunge, please don't hold me personally responsible if you do c#$k up your phone... Oh, and get the stock ROM/SPL downloaded as well. If something does mess up, or you need to return the phone for warranty purposes you can easily revert back to factory spec.

Going Back @ My 1st Luv!!

So, after selling my x7501, about 3 years ago, I have had the HTC Touch Pro (unlocked), HTC Touch Pro 2 (Tmobile US), & now the HTC HD2 (Tmobile US) - don't get me wrong, they were all great devices in their on right, but I was much, much happier & productive with my x7501. & with those devices I still have 2 carry a netbook - not 2 mention all the freezing & resetting i am dealing with with my HD2 - such a headache! in order 2 get back to my "happy place" I am in the process of ordering an x7510!
Question: Can someone tell me what's the maximum size memory card it supports??
Double post
it depends what rom you use (my one has the latest drivers/build ), 16gb card works. (haven't tried 32gb)
Thank you!! I'm sorry for the double post i hit the back browser by mistake & couldn't figure out how to delete one - but thank you for replying, I appreciate it!

You can't 'upgrade', its like a 'full instalation' , it does a hard rest and so you lose your data. Also you need to change your stock SPL to a hard SPL found in the sticky.
i guess i will have 2 try it when i receive my phone, before i load anything.
i hope the process is painless, i've never did a full install before.
on that thread will it give me information & warnings on what to look out for? will i loose any valuable programs thats already installed on the phone?
You can always revert if you don't like it, no problem.
Hey, chellie, good to see an 'old' new X7510 user.
It's very simple to change your ROM.
First of all, read this thread about Hard-SPL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441684
After that, just select the ROM that you want. We have few 'chefs' here. So there are few options, but all of them are making good ROMs.
The new one is from Vico100.
Unfortunately, 6.5.x does not support RealVGA (if you don't know about this app, search it here on xda. It is a real new life for X7510 to make it as a wonderful netbook).

Unfortunately, 6.5.x does not support RealVGA (if you don't know about this app, search it here on xda. It is a real new life for X7510 to make it as a wonderful netbook).

Thank you hiroshi.rio.
I owned a x7501 previously, but I used it stock.
With purchasing the x7510, I may just do the same, I am way to nervous to dry to change or update the ROMs - I have no experience in doing so, and I don't wanna mess anything up
I appreciate the information and I will look at the recommended forum and take in as much info as I can.
So updating the system or changing it to RealVGA makes it more like a netbook? That sounds interesting, I have to look into that.
