S.V.I said:
Uploaded a new keyboard. EZInput1.5 ENG/RUS
I finaly found it in 4pda.ru forum. After it worked so well I decided to make a package of it and scale down the gfx... then I updated dll's from a newer build... then I got rid of all nonsense in the reg... then I UPXed it... Then I set the registry to install all of the gfx to a separate folder in windows.
So I been busy this weekend.
The cab is on post3 atachments right after the UC folder. makes typing on the screen a breeze

Moved many files out of windows. they install By cabs.
These files would otherwise remain sitting useless in Windows directory.
Will be moving many more eventualy. results are noteworthy:
NEW: Flash Player 7 (not FlashLite) please test to see if it works right.
823kb = 0.8mb moved out of windows +113mb Related to home.
150 files that would otherwise be in windows
191 images related to HTCHome which would otherwise sit uselessly in Windows.
Windows folder loads in less than a second when set to NAME
Issues:
First boot is slow with the customizations. reason being that about 300+ files get copied to places that they need to go.
If the screen wants to go dark during the customization IT WILL TURN WHITE.
DON'T PANIC!!! just press the power button and it will resume.
Takes about as long as the origional 226 ext rom (LONG)
First boot has improved I believe. removed about 100 files out of windows (the so useless bitmaps that are already located in DLL's but reside in windows for no reason)
anyway, if the boot seems slow at first, let it go. once everything is loaded and the ram drops to about 28mb it will work fast and stable.
Today plugins are not enabled by default.
I will provide the blank extended rom ruu for those who may experience battery drainage after flashing any of the manila roms. (mine drained twice as fast) My battery lasted all day at work (12hrs) and only dropped to 93%

I have provided a UC folder in hopes that many people will use it
instead of making requests to cook programs such as GMaps;
Which gets updated too often
Manila Tabs:
1. Home: clock calendar...
2. People: set up your contacts (may have to press twice the first time)
3. Messages: SMS/MMS
4. Mail: E-mail. double tap the envelope to read/ use softkeys
5. Internet: Launch Opera Mini
6. Photos And Videos: slide pictures up/down launch Album Exe; pick favorite folder to display in today screen
7. Weather: add multiple weather locations/Softkey menu takes you to settings
8. Maps Search: lets you search using Gmaps and saves your favorite places
9. Settings: settings shortcuts.
10. Programs: 24 programable buttons to launch programs (dont think anyone has that many in their wizards )
THIS IS A BETA TEST. SOME THINGS MAY NOT WORK AND i JUST HAVE NOT NOTICED...
with that in mind, I have not made this thing pretty
Compressed a lot of the graphics and executables (Especialy in the manila package)
There is no audio manager
There is no HTC Task Manager... Quickmenu should take care of your task closing and hibernating
Where to find your favorite programs in QuickMenu 2.7:
Programs:
Album;BTExplorer; camera; FExplorerEXT; PIE; Opera Mini; Pictures & Videos; Task Manager(MS); Windows Media;
Accessories:
M2DC; Midlet Manager; MP3Trimmer; RC Mod;
Tools:
Activesync; Advanced Network; Comm Manager; df Task Manager; HACSetting; Internet Sharing; QuickMenu; Regeditor; SIMMGR; WM5torage
Office:
Calendar; Contacts; Excel; Messaging; Notes; Phone; PowerPoint; Tasks; Word

System:

Connections:
Beam; Bluetooth, Comm Manager; Connections; CSD Line Type; Domain Enroll; External GPS; FTP Bluetooth; GPRS Setting; Network Plugin; Network Wizard; WIFI; Wireless LAN
Please alow the customizations to finish.
I know they take long; but the first boot is the price You have to pay for an emptier Windows folder.
Also, In beta 2; the HTCHome.xml is loaded via the ManilaGFX.cab. So if you do not alow it to install, MANILA WILL NOT WORK!
I do not recomend installing any cabs that run in windows, or any cabs that you can not uninstall.
I do not recomend (personal opinion) to install audio manager to run in Manila. it eats up 2mb of ram
If you must install a Theme for manila, make sure it comes with it's own HTCHome Settings XML. even though my theme is based off of the standard skin, it is mostly PNG's and thus incompatable with the standard set of graphics without editing the XML.
Please note that when you start programing your contact, weather, and programs tabs, you will have to tap twice. this only happens the first time. (should)

MICROPHONE ACG fix on post 313 For roms before manila beta 2
CHANGE YOUR RING FROM THE "Afternoon" RING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can you post some pics / screens of your ROM ???

downloading now looks good, how much ram does it have

Looks nice! It isn't that difficult to become a chef

can we have some screenshots?

I installed, seems to work fast and stable.
First one silly question:
How could I change the yellow/black background of the today screen?
It remains even if I change the today theme ....

Yup! That's something to take out of your next release, as it is no dice, good effort but ugly as sin

looks good...can't wait to try it

Can't run pocket e-sword on this (acutally SQLCE 2.0 installs, but is probably overidden by another version already installed on this ROM... same problem happens in the latest TNT ROM which has a later version of SQLCE installed). I think the culprit is the SQL Server Compact installed (used by Query Analyzer).
Nice otherwise though.
BTW your ROM doesn't have the newer colored Edge Icon and Signal Strength that other 2073 ROMs have

After few softreset the function button in the today screen at the bottom ( calendar, contacts by default) disappeared . The same was with the TNT ROM

Nice man!
IM GLAD TO SEE YOU STILL COOKING!!!! BRIGHTROM WAS A COOL ROM, I CANT WAIT TO REFLASH THIS BASED ON TNT'S, JUST FOR THE HOBBIE YOU KNOW! HAHAHA NICE TO SEE YOU CONTINUE THE NEW BUILDINGS COOK, WE'LL KEEP IN TOUCH FOR POST ISSUES AND FIXES.
I HOPE IT DOESNTSUCKS MY BATT LIKE THE OTHER ONE.
OUPS! WHAT DO YOU MEAN WITH "MUTATION" AND "DLL" DOES WE NEED TO COPÝ DLL'S OR JUST INFO TO WATCH CHANGES ON THIS PROGRAMS... LIKE TOUCHFLO SCROLL?
DOWNLOADING...

Fired up my Wizard for this.... I have one problem, I can't get my today screen to show 12 hour format. I changed it in Regional to h:mm:ss, went into the registry and messed with the nls overrides and put in
nls\overrides" , " S2359" , " PM"
nls\overrides" , " S1159" , " AM"
With my hermes that seemed to work but I cannot get it give me a 12 hour time format
I had to add this in the nls overide
STFmt" , " h:mm:ss tt...as the tt is for am/pm

Themes: download any tsk theme and it should change it. I'm sorry that you did not like the theme. It is only about the 25th revision. I guess I have to work more on it.
Not sure about the sqlce. I will switch it with another next time next time to see if that fixes the problem for you. I dont use it.
I have had quite a bit of soft resets to try out the problem of disappearing softkey buttons. did not have that.
I did have a problem with disappearing shortcuts when I unpluged the device from the computer immediately after flashing/ before I finished setup. that may be the problem. try reflashing and do not disconnect untill you are done with setup/first activesync pairing.
about the colored icons in the top bar: I tried to take appart the reasources for that particular dll to see the contents, and I saw the colored ones included. so it may be just areg setting. I will look into it.
That is all for now.
cant cook for about a week.

can you have some pic???

are you flashing it for the looks of it?
I am in the process of moving. laptop is packed. can not take pictures at the moment. can not upload .
Could someone please make a screenshot (since it seems to define the answere of flash or not flash) I would really apreciate.

Not sure if anyone uses the Query Analyzer, it's the only thing in the System folder at the moment. What is it for anyway?
Thanx for your help.

I See That...

MANY ISSUES BY MR TNT FIXED, AND IT HAS MUCH MEMORY THAN TNT'S BETA V3, BOTH ARE GREAT! BUT I LIKE YOURS ITS MORE VANILLA....WITH USEFULL STUFF NO DRAIN ISSUE, ITS FAST, ITS ESTABLE, THE PERFORMANCE IS GREAT, BUT YOU NEED TO WORK ON DESIGNS FOR DIALPAD BUTTONS, WMP, AND SOMEMORE, ARE GREAT BUT DONT COMBINE.

[27 March] "Mobile Vista" v1.2 released (my cooked 3.02 WM6.1 ROM)

I've just finished uploading v1.2 of my little ROM. As the previous thread with v1 and v1.1 was getting a bit long, I hope you don't mind me starting a fresh one with this.
Please read all of the first two posts. There is some very important info hidden in there, and it's well worth spending the 2 minutes reading it all!
If you're looking for a stripped out, ultra-light ROM for you to load up with your choice of cabs, I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place. Light ROMs are great, but I got bored spending an hour reinstalling and re-setting up my phone every time I flashed (UC helps with this, but you still have to spend some time setting it up). I wanted a ROM that was set up with everything I wanted as soon as the Hard Reset was finished - hence my little ROM here.
Why the name "Mobile Vista"? I initially chose it as Wm6.1 and Vista are both the newest release from MS, and both have been accused of being buggy, but I've personally found them both great! Now I need to stick with it as Mfrazzz very kindly made me a lovely splash screen with it written on - cool!
Sincere thanks to Ionutz6, Ghostie, Poorlyduck, Mfrazzz, Duttythroy, Nadavi, _Alex_, Dr Puttingham, and everyone else whose work I've used to make this. Thank you.

Bugs
TodayAgenda still crashes when you go to the Options via Start>Settings>Today>TodayAgenda>Options. Just tap and hold TodayAgenda on the Today Screen, then select Options and it's fine.
ROM is UC-compliant but only UCv1, not the newer UCv2. This is because I forgot to update this before I uploaded the ROM! I'll fix this and upload a UCv2 Rom ASAP.
MMS Options isn't selectable. Please install Alex's Arcsoft 5.0.31.2 cab to fix this at the moment. (Thanks to McMex and Mfrazzz for finding this bug and it's solution)
Niggles
Windows media Player doesn't start after a Hard Reset on PoorlyDuck's excellent Vista skin, you need to select it through Options>Skins>WMP11
How to flash:
If you don't understand ANY of the terms in the following paragraph, stop, look them up on the WIKI BEFORE you proceeed. If you don't, you WILL end up with a useless phone (a brick)!
Make sure you've got HardSPL
Connect your phone via the USB cable and run the KaiserCutomRUU file
Follow the screen prompts
When you get to the screen alignment bit, Hard Reset the phone
When you get to the screen alignment bit again, leave the phone alone for 2 minutes before doing the alignment (this seems to help speed up the Kaiser)
Follow the rest of the inital screens and let the Autocustomisation run. Your ROM is now installed.
If you haven't got a WM6.1 Radio installed, you'll need to flash one now or your sounds and/or camera won't work. Check here if you're not sure: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_Radio

Very nice... I have it installed and have been configuring for an hour or so. I've run into one issue though and I'm hoping there is a solution (I haven't tried to debug it myself yet, just wanted to post this as soon as possible):
If I go to Messaging and then Menu -> MMS Options , I get a blank screen saying to Select Menu and Search Devices to find the new devices (Which I believe is from the BlueTooth options. I wonder if there is a wrong DLL. What version of Arcsoft did you use?). Tapping Menu gives the options of Search Devices, Delete, and Send File (with the last two greyed out). So right now, you cannot modify MMS Options from the Messaging app Can someone else that has this installed try this and tell me if you get the same thing?

Yes I got the same thing I installed an arcsoft SMS cab I had and it fixed the issue. I use the Palm threaded MMS/SMS app anyway so I installed it and everything is great..
Ah another find Stu Rom. can't wait to give it a go. Will probably have to wait a day or so, but I'll report in as soon as I do.
I personally picked Stu's rom because TomTom is built right in. I don't need alot of the other stuff but it's nice to have it all there. Very little to add on with this one.
Now if only Weatherpanel updated properly with 6.1.

TUTORIAL
User Customization whit IBI​
Did you know that you dont have to install all youre cabs manualy? All my roms are UC capable / User Customization ready, this means you can use easy scripts or apps to automaticly do the job for you on installation/flash. Choose youre prefered metod, I will list youre options here:
First out is Sleuth255 User Customization, you can read all about this here: ROM Flashing Junkies: User Customization is here!.
Waht takes time is to actually write the SDConfig.txt, but for making this easier you can download doedoe SDConfigBuilder-v0.3
Second you have Bengalih`s SASHIMI Automated Installer, everything you need and howto are covered in hes post here SASHIMI Automated Installer. If server server is down download it here: SASHIMI AutoInstaller RAW 7.0.cab
Third and last (wich is my personal favorit) you have TierAutoinstall, now this you can read about on this site Tiermann.net. Its really made for cooking it in but I have made a solution for it by making a cab. Just do as followed:
---------------------------- separate ---------------------------------------------
6 Steps Tier Autoinstall
1. Download TAutoinstall.rar
2. Extract the files on youre computer. (SDConfig.txt & Raiisak`s TAutoinstall.exe.cab)
3. Copy SDConfig.txt and Raiisak`s TAutoinstall.exe.cab to the root of youre SD Card "\Storage Card".
4. Make a folder called Boot on youre Storage Card/SD Card like this "\Storage Card\Boot".
5. Copy all the cabs you want to the new folder Boot on SD Card. Add whatever you want cause TAutoinstaller will let you choose everytime what to install.
6. HardReset/Flash any UC capable / User Customization ready, this will work on any not just IBI ROM.
Happy flashing.
FAQ
IBI FAQ
Q: What is the diffrence betweem Lite and Soft?
A: Diffrence in lite are the apps listet in "IBI v8 Lite Highlight Removals" is not in lite version of rom. Other than that, same rom.
Q: Why is the screen align a bit to right in some programs?
A: Its because of the new font I use, some apps does not support it, to turn it off use cab in post #3.
Q: Hi, I am a AT&T user, why doesnt my weather in HTC Home works?
A: Helo there, MMS as you discover works out of the box. But to get the weather going you need to install ATTSettings.cab in post #3 soft reset then goto connection settings and uncheck "this server uses proxy", then MMS and data will work whitout any aditional steps
Q: Hi, when I use the calculator and push one button 4 buttons are pushed?? (I dont have big fat fingers)
A: Hi, yes I know you dont have big fat fingers. This is due a error made by me in late houres skinning the calc. Look in post #3 for fixed cab.
Q: What is the difference between the Soft and Office versions?
I have tried searching with no results.
A: Only diffrence is that I cooked in office 2007 Wich means you will have exel, words and ppt while using soft version you need to install by cab.
Q: is there anyway of removing that top bar that appears when your typing in txt messages cus it takes up the screen and i want it off
A: If You look at youre raphael keyboard, full qwerty, compact qwerty or phone keypad you will see a little button where with a swich. ABCT9, Click it. It must show on right, under T9
Q: Im having a problem I havent seen a refrence to in the forums, after flashing the ROM I have no sound. None at all. My friend with the same phone had the same issue but he got his to respond by turning the sond off and then back on. This did not work for me, I even tried re-flashing it with the same result.
A: There is no radio in the rom package, download 1.58.25.17 flash it and try that
Q: ROM is great and very responsive. Battery Status (BS is a 3rd app.) options on the today screen are garbled. Tap and hold on Battery status should bring up a menu of options. It now brings up a strange garbled version. Perhaps something to do with your new font?
A: This font fix causes the context menu of BatteryStatus (and possibly some other apps) to become distorted and unreadable. If you use BatteryStatus, and want to remove the custom font, then install and configure BatteryStatus, and then install the font fix CAB.
"This FAQ is based on questions and feedback in tread, thank you for making me aware of the diffrent issues and questions users can meet using my ROM."

Hey, count me in, been a while since I tested a beta ROM.
Dave
OH...OH....Pick Me!
OK, so i realize I don't look especially active, but i'm just a man of few words. I spend 2 - 3 hrs a day in this forum/community. So, If you'll let me, I'd love to flash this very cool looking ROM, and give you all kinds of feedback and suggestions.
Thanks
NICE
You stuck to it !!!! This looks exciting.
I am definitely down for testing this on my Kaiser

Haha! Yes mate! But wouldnt gone far whitout masterchief Laurentius support I tell you
And all the time that goes into this skin job
oh man. this rom looks great so far. would be up for some testing as well, though i am not a very active type of forum user. perhaps this is the step?
anyway, this looks awesome and even if you do not choose me (which i would understand ), i will wait for the public release to try this out. this definately has some looks.
p.s.: do you plan to release this in multilanguage or just english?
I'm always available for a good testing.
beta tester
ill give it a go ,,,i love black
I'm willing to beta test
Raiisak I would love to test this rom for you. Please include me in beta testers.
The screens look great! If you still need people, I willing to beta test your ROM.
Nice to see all the intrest in my ROM, I have included all I will use for BETA this round now. I will repost when/if I launch BETA round two before release, the release I am not sure when will be as I dont have the exact view of compabilitie issues + I got some skin jobs asvell. All I can say I have used 10 houres on dayli bases for a good week now Betatesters feel free to use this tread for feedback, or PM or MSN/Skype (PM for contact info).
Thank you for youre effort so far
Damn raiisak, you closed the testing just before I had the chance to reply. I shouldn't have finished bidding for those webcams on ebay......
My early observations...
*The "G" GPRS Icon is still missing, like in the Diamond ROM ports.
*The SIM PIN unlock does not automatically appear when loading the OS. I have to start the dialer to get the dialog.
EDIT:
Removed Dialer, problem is still the same...

looks good im flashing and giving it a try
I installed your ROM this morning, but had to load another one for a few different reasons. Here are my observations.
- Very slow to finalize (install cabs) at first startup. I kept thinking that it was locked up, but it finally finished after about 20-30 minutes.
- I didn't have any problems with soft-resetting when coming out of standby
- Did have problems with audio manager (you stated that already)
- I like the theme (blue)
- Semi Slow, but not that bad. Omapclock would take care of the speed. It was about the same as my original wm5 rom.
- Only 16M file memory left after install! Program memory looks fine.
- No office program: Main reason I can't test it anymore right now. I need word/excel for work.
- I had a hell of a time loading another rom. It kept locking up and would only reset to your rom. I had to manually put it in bootloader to finally load the original tmobile rom.
Overall, great start
I've been trying my hand at cooking a rom, but can't even get close. So good for you to get one up and running Keep it up and I'll try again on another version.
This is one of the Best looking roms I've seen so far.
1. Wifi will not turn off.
2. No Screen/key lock feture
3. No office
4. problems playing videos in WMP or HTC album
5. slow
6. Reset issue as you indicated (went to my power management and stop the device from going into sleep mode for now.)
Despite all the issues, I still don't want to remove the Rom just yet.
Great job cooking up this one.

it really took a while to finish, but it doesnt take me 20-30 mins to finish. most of M2D files are in extended ROM. i'm still having a hard time trimming down the files. M2d alone is a 12mb cab yet i've managed to trim it down to 5-6+mb. as i recall it was divided into 2+mb oem and a cab placed at the extended rom. opera is 4+mb cab file, but when i convert it to oem, it becomes around 8-9mb.

first of all thanks for testing the rom and for the feedbacks.
regarding wifi, hmmm i haven't tried it yet but i will look up to it.
no screen/keylock - i didn't pay too much attention on this one. i'll see what i can do about this.
no office since there's no more space left. but im still triming down file size to save more space and probably gain additional speed.
haven't play any videos yet.
looking for some way to gain more speed.
reset issue, i'm doing the same thing as u did.but its weird that after a couple of hours, my wizard is running normally except for touchflo which is still slow.
I really like the look of your today screen. Did you use the Touchflo 2d manilla?? I'd love to put it onto my today screen...I've heard it is still beta and not working well yet.
I'm going to have to wait to test this one out as my usb is acting up again, and I am trying to save it until I can get a repair done. Cosmetically it looks great, probably one of the prettiest roms I've seen. Once you get the bugs out, I look forward to taking it on a test run. I think it has great potential.

thanks... the skin in manila 2d is its default skin. i still haven't modified it though i have plans of changing the clock to digital from analog.
the theme (.tsk) is my WM7 theme. i made it myself.
@overlordjd
I just tried playing a video on wmp and it's working normally.
the skin is nicely done, try reworking the graphics (compress them in Photoshop)...try removing some extra stuff for eg
GSFinder
WM5torage
moBlu
and Games
these all could be replaced by office and still you'll have some space

wow you're quick. hehe...
actually i was planning to remove some apps. it's just at the last time i build it, the office was too large to fit in but so i placed those apps.
about M2D images, im still compressing it. there are too many files to compress. by default the M2D was atound 12mb in cab. then i turned it to OEM still having the same size. then i took all the image file and turn it into a cab then I have around 4-6mb cab. i also removed the avatar from it.
do you have any idea about the reset issue?
thanks
BETA
As a beta I think this is Good ; Tried it and the graphics was awesome ather90 is right you must remove some things for it to become faster
Thanks for the share
skinn n everything is so nice.......

i have an updated rom. the problem is im having a hard time loading it. i thought it was the rom, but i also tried to load my previous rom and some rom's poster here, but im still stock at bootscreen.
i cant post the update unless i tested it.
btw ok na fagev.di ko alam kung nacheck mo na
Consider my Wizard your wizard. Allow me the honour of testing for you. This is by far one of the better looking roms I've seen cooked up. I cant wait to go through the changes leading up to the final version.
now this is strange, i already flash tnt rom (19213) and noonski's rom and im still stuck in bootscree. so my updated rom wasn't the problem. i cannot post it unless i test it...
the updated rom now includes MS office and M2D Config.
free some space. probably customization will be faster (though i cannot guarantee since i can't try it) because i deleted 4 cabs which are m2d images, audiomanager, commmanager and opera.
i also compressed some images for m2d and delete some files which is 2mb+
im also figuring if internet tab can all on PIE instead of opera, in thta case, opera is not needed and save some space.
I've been trying this out since the day you put out beta. someone mentioned they needed office to be able to test. the one I downloaded does have office.
here is what i've found.
wifi does not work.
newer sim manager with save to contact function will help.
used to disconnet from activesync when goes into sleep not anymore.
If you could add opera and google maps it would be nice.
haven't found any other problem so far.
HTH
Love this default theme. I will make a try ^^.
FYI
hey mate,
tried to cook a couple of roms by myself. the thing - well, as far i have recognized - with manila 2d is the it has to be in the ROM. every installation after flashing (the ext. rom installation is nothing else) makes it unusable slow.

Tips And Tricks Section
6.1.2.2 SP1 Hotfix
This Hotfix deals with the Thumb and Video Issues in the last release:
Image thumbs in MMS and Video Playback in HTC Album. I tested by doing a hard reset and then applying the patch. Please note that Coreplayer and TCPMP can affect video playback by "stealing" file associations
I decided to rename this post a little. After battling so much with porting 20931 I have come accross some real gems in this forum.
solomhamada pointed out some interesting facts about using a black theme, mainly battery usage since the device does not actually have to work so hard to display black. So here is a black version of the standard WizFlo 2D theme View attachment WizFlo_Black.zip. You can apply it with Manilla 2D Customizer
Lets start with some really cool tools from eLias found here:
AsyncKiller This tool kills idle instances of ActiveSync
Autohibernate This tool recovers ram automatically after apps exit,you can setup an applist on top of the included apps
HTCDLG Killer This little gem kills HTCDlg Windows and recovers free ram
Later in this thread there there is a post about mpenguin14's MD2 Dev tools I decided to add it here. Its truly simple yet brilliant. It allows you to disable and enable Manilla at the press of a button. Also allows you to choose which Today Plugins should be shown when you disable Manilla 2D. This helps alot when browsing using Opera 9.5 as it frees up some valueble ram
Wizard Service Tool
I love this little tool. It allows you to backup your rom and restore. Yet my favourite feature is being able to change you pagepool without a reflash. WizFlo roms land with a 6mb pagepool. Once I figure out how to change it without a hex editor I might just release them with a 4mb pagepool. This give you 2mb program memory back, which is crucial in the 2D version.
Okay here is the promised Omap Clock Cabs:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]

The sddeamon error comes when you let customization run. Hard Reset and when customization prompt comes up immediatly do a soft reset. The settings for X button and Ok button is under QuickMenu Settings.

This does seem to be an allignment problem. Although I have noticed that when changing the today theme I need to press slightly harder. I normall use the right softkey to close apps. I will have a look into this and post a fix asap
Rom
Really nice Rom.
Where is office?
Wifi doesn't work from the com manager, but can be activated throught the setings menue.
I believe the close button problem you are having is that you have to tap hold to close
Looking forward to your next update.
No office 07, can u give us a cab
Really Nice Rom
you r fantastic , iam a big fan
keep going
Wifi doesn't work
Hi! first of all, i'd love your lovely rom. Beutifuul and fast, with the necessary (except office), and without the unecessary. But i've tried to activate the wifi on the comm manager and this doesn't do anything. The button not working.
-Seems to be missing Calculator
-wi-fi in Comm manager does not work for me either
-2 shortcuts for Comm manager in Programs
-definite screen alignment problem, to hit X you have to press up and to the left of it, although other corners seem ok
On the upside, Very fast! WMP plays videos, MMS composer and Pictures&video both display thumbnails for video. Nice job!
your rom is great

[ROM] PointROM - A ROM with PointUI v 1 cooked in [WM6.1]

PointROM v 2.0 Windows Mobile 6.1/PointUI 1.51a ROM - DOWNLOAD (LZX Version)
By Ace10134
Summary
The first T-Mobile Wing ROM with the original PointUI cooked in! If you loved the original PointUI (v 1.51a), then you'll love this ROM! It's got the amazing interface of PointUI, and some other enhancements to top it off!

20.64 MB Free RAM and 35.21 MB Free Storage Space on fresh install (LZX: 20.16 MB Free RAM and 45.19 MB Free Storage)
PointUI basically replaces the entire today screen! It acts as a Today Screen, Start Menu, CommManager, Lock Screen, Task Manager, Contacts List, Volume Control, and probably more!
Touch scrolling (not TouchFLO) - Very smooth scrolling through everything. And, PointUI has it's own scrolling, which is extremely smooth
Speedier than the default T-Mobile ROM
T-Zones Data Plan Hack is already set up (using epc.tmobile.com)
Threaded SMS
Doesn't automatically delete your CAB's upon installation
EzInput keyboard - Finger friendly keyboard
Finger friendly Volume controls - Both the PointUI volume controls AND the Windows Mobile volume controls are finger friendly!
When in PointUI, you can use your Volume slider to navigate. Slide up to return to a previous menu, and slide down to scroll down one

Office Mobile - You have to press the Start button while in a Windows Mobile window to get to it. Will be fixed later. Sorry.
Microsoft Voice Command
Not Installed
Windows Live - For your Live e-mail, messenger, contacts sync, and profile status updater; Download free.
IM (That the default T-Mobile ROM had installed) - I recommend using Palringo IM, which is free and has multiple chat clients, including Facebook chat
Adobe Reader - Free Download
T-Zones - Who used it anyways???
Bugs
Office Mobile cannot be accessed through PointUI's program launcher. Go to a Windows Mobile window (like File Explorer), press your Start button (on the phone, not on the screen), and then click Office Mobile for now.
Found another bug? Tell me, please!

ToadLife - His kitchen is wonderful. A perfect starting point for my ROM. (He got the kitchen from Ivan, who got it from someone else, so thanks to everyone before ToadLife!)
Ivan - An awesome cook who wrote wonderful guides. He's always willing to help.
The Community - You guys all make this so much fun. Keep up the feedback! (good or bad feedback)

Wow, that sounds great! Oh, but will pointui have any skins or applets added in? Because whenever I installed it, I never completely liked how limited the default applets were.

Remember, this is PointUI v 1.51a
PointUI v 2 (pointui.com) is the one that has a bunch of skinning abilities and installable applets.
But, I included the "old" version since it's different, and I like it more. I was disapointed with the new "remodeled" version that they made (pointui v 2), so I went back to the old one.
Sooo....Answering your question...skinning is very limited with this. It is possible, but there aren't many skins out there, since no one is really developing for the old version. They all moved on to version 2, where skinning is easy.
And the applets, they also aren't customizable, I believe. I'm considering making a ROM with PointUI v 2 cooked in, and then you will get full skinning/applet control. Maybe you'd like that more. Tell me what you think!
No, you're right. The main reason why I preferred PointUI 1.5 to 2 is really the lockscreen applet. It was very stylish. For some reason, the lock applet is exclusive to the pro version of PointUI 2. Besides, 1.5 is probably lighter than 2. So 1.5 would be the better choice for memory.

Yea. I haven't looked at 2.0 for a while. And I don't like paying for things.
But, if you'd like to test this ROM, I'm uploading it to Skydrive right now...Slow connection, but it'll go up there soon.
Download link is up there now. Still a pre-release, but you can download and try it out. (.7z compressed, so use 7zip to extract!)

I tried it, but I couldn't get it to work. Then I figured I should just try to make a working Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM, modify it, and learn how the kitchen works. Heck, I've only been "cooking" for 3 days now. I gotta learn a lot, I think. And it's tough finding a really quality guide online.
About the PointROM...I created v 1.2 now. Just some minor changes (working on removing extra crap and theming the OS). The Skydrive uploads will see day of light on every .5 versions. So 1.5 will be the next up there (around tomorrow).
Can anyone create Windows Mobile theme files??? (.tsk) I need some help with that. If anyone could find or create a PointUI theme for the Windows Mobile part of the OS, then that would be awesome. I had no luck with it. I'm also working on skinning the dialer (I might include Phone Canvas) and also replacing all of the WinMo icons so that they match PointUI. If anyone could create the .tsk theme, that'd be great.

Sure, I could do it. I have a theme maker lying around here somewhere. Could you just give me the background graphic that pointUI uses? That way I could use that as a reference. Since it's a 6.1 theme, it won't have fancy transparencies or stuff that the 6.5 themes do, just a basic gradient at most. Also, downloading and flashing now. (though that seems a waste if you're going to post a new release tomorrow...)

Well the next release shouldn't be anything major. I make minor changes so that if anything goes wrong, I can change it.
And I couldn't really find the PointUI background anywhere. I say, just use the background color from the Applications menu inside PointUI. I have that color attached. It's a solid color. Then I guess the top and bottom bars should be a lighter blue than the attached file. That would look good. And you should make them the glossy bars, not those flat ones that lots of ROM's use now. Think you can do that? That would be awesome. I could cook you a special ROM version with some of your programs cooked in or something, if you'd like.
Oh, you know what, you should try to make the background image so that there's that little blue glowing bar at the bottom. You can see it in the attached image, right at the bottom.
So can you make that work as the background? It's a pretty simple image. And anyways, the Today screen won't ever really be seen, so it's no big deal. What I care more about are the WinMo Bars theme. Make those a nice PointUI-ish blue gloss color. Use your phone and screenshots as a reference. If you need more PointUI screenshots, I've got them all on my computer.
I look forward to seeing the theme!

LZX is no problem. The most trouble about an LZX version is uploading it...my connection is slowwww. But yea, I'll make LZX, how about on the 1.5 release?
All in all, a nice ROM, there's just the problem of it being nearly stock. Many of the nice things that make WinMo a joy to use (nice SIPs, finger-friendly enhancements, task managers) aren't there. Of course, this is just an alpha build, so I'm sure all of the improvements are on the way! (also, keeping voice command is a nice touch, especially since I got a new headset)

Finger-friendly enhancements - It's PointUI!! How more friendly could you get!! And then the soft menu's are a little larger than stock. Honestly, tell me what can be improved, and I'll work on it.
Task Manager - PointUI IS a task manager. From the home screen, click on Applications and then on Currently Running. There you can go into a running program and then close it (by tapping on the Start Menu while in the app, and then clicking Force Close. How would you like that improved? (I can't change anything inside PointUI, remember)
SIP (On-Screen Keyboard) - Yea, I know. It's the default WinMo one. I'll change it sometime, possibly. Recommend a keyboard for me to cook in, then.
Voice Command - I figured I'd keep that in, especially since that dam iPhone has it (and acted like they invented it, like they do with everything).
But it seems like you're liking it so far!! V 1.5 will be coming up soon, with more complete theming. V 2.0 might be more of a full release. Tell me what you think!
Just looked at your screenshots...You're not supposed to even use the old Today Screen!! The point is that it's a PointUI ROM! That's why I did nothing with the Start Menu's size, because you will never touch the Start Menu. But yea, I like that keyboard. Give me a link or name to the keyboard.
Love your site ace...wondering whats the free ram and storage on your new rom

Love your site ace...wondering whats the free ram and storage on your new rom
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
About 22 MB Free RAM, and about 37 MB free Storage Space upon booting it up (with PointUI running).
After using the phone for a few hours (running Internet Explorer, etc), I closed all of the apps, and RAM was at about 18 MB. So, it holds up pretty well!
I'm not writing up everything about this ROM yet, since it's ever changing. Expect that storage space to increase as versions go.
And a ROM with SPB MOBILE SHEL 3.01, LIKE SONY ERICSON SXPERIA. The User flash if have a key bought or not.

Yea, I could cook in the Trial version, so that it's legal still. But for now, I'm making the PointROM real perfect.

PointUI freezes, right? That's not really "frozen", it's a bug in PointUI. When trying to scroll through a list (usually the Applications list), scrolling freezes, and no touches on the screen are registered. But, it still works by using your D-Pad. So, go up to the Return arrow with your D-Pad, and then your touchscreen will be working again.
