Hi there!
I was last week a Kaiser owner, but the phone gave me the ****s, and thus I sold it
Now, I am a very happy owner of an LG KS20. This phone is beautiful, smart, and very fast! No touchscreen bug is great!
Now, my issue is this. I'm so used to some HTC apps, I took them for granted, and now they don't work on the LG KS20!
* HTC Enlarge Start Menu
* Connection Wizard
* HTC Album [not sure, will this one work]
As well as a few others.
What to do?
I've got the HTC X-Button installed now, and it's working alright as a task manager
But, the Enlarge Start Menu is a real great one, and it won't work will it
Connection Wizard: This phone is unbranded, I'm with Three in Australia, and I can't set up the MMS/Planet 3 connections. Connection Wizard runs, soft-resets my phone... but nothing is changed! So I had to uninstall it
Any ideas?
[On an unrelated note: I'm looking for any emulators that can be run in landscape mode, using the joystick as the directions, and an on-screen buttons. Any ideas on what will? Will Picodrive do that by chance?]
Thanks!
Nothing? Would really like to enlarge the start menu. Then this phone would be perfect [once I've got GAPI support going that is ]
Given the lack of responses I don't think this is possible. Probably one of the reasons this forum does NOT support none HTC manufactured devices.

I figured as much.
It's a shame. HTC have some nice additions to Windows Mobile.
*shrugs
it works. it is installed as a service and configured to autostart.
it is just that on non HTC devices, they still don't autostart.
get the great and free Taskmgr by FdcSoft, go to the services tab, select the enlarge startmenu service and hit the "Run" button on the bottom. need to do this again after a softreset.

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!!!

Afternoon everyone. I'm a long time HTC Hermes user but have always missed the one-hand of my old Treo 650. So yesterday I picked up a used 750 ($150 not bad). It had WM5 on it so I promptly upgraded it to WM6 with the stock ATT rom.
What I didn't realize is that everything that ran on my Hermes isn't going to run on my Treo. I have two big irritations that I hope someone can clear up for me.
First is with the HTC Home Plugin. The plugin installs and runs fine (along with the HTCCustomize). However its the problem is with the Today screen item called Dialpad Lookup. If I uncheck this item then I lose button functionality, for example hitting the red button to lock and turn off the screen. The only thing I have seen for this is some registry tweaks to let you move the Dialpad Lookup up or down. Any ideas what to do about this?
Second is there is no Task Manager / X to Close instead of Hide program. I tried to install HTC Task Manager a couple times and each time had to Hard reset to defaults. I also tried SPB Pocket Plus, which is what I used on my Hermes, and every time that resulted in neverending lockups and hard resets.
What app are you using to make the X a close (OK button to minimize) and to Task Manage?
Thanks!
I use SPB Pocket Plus on Treo 750v WM6 without any problem...sorry, not much help.
Possible Answers
Hey d00d,
Just got my Treo and been playing with it a bit.
As for HTC Home i use and recommend Touch Commander which simulate the Home Screen and adds some HTC cube capabilities. it's nice though it costs money.
As for the Dial Lookup issue, What i did is Hide the Lookup (Menu --- Preferences --- Hide Lookup field) BUT you have to leave the dial lookup plugin enabled on the today Settings.
Now you will have the Red Button feature without the lookup field on the today screen.
Last thing regarding the task manager, i use tman - the best i've used so far.
You may also like Task Manager in Battery Status plugin - good as well
Hope i helped
qbout task manager
I used magic button and it is free and I think that it is the best.
task manager
I use the 1.5 version of vp3g x button which works on my wife treo. and I have oxios to keep it clean, I however haven't managed to get the htc home going like the one on my hermes
Try WKTask
I've tried all kinds of task managers over the last couple of years that I've had my 750 and the best one I've found is called WKTask. I highly recommend it because not only does it give the X in the corner, but it also gives you the equivalent of a task tray across the top of the screen which allows you to quickly switch from one application to another. It also has a nifty launcher utility. Go to the site and check it out:
http://soft.photoracer.net/docs/wktask_en.html
I am in no way associated or affiliated with the product, I just really dig it and it's free too. It may seem a little complicated at first, but it's easier than you think and worth the effort to learn the capabilities.

If you upgrade to WM6.1 it finally includes a task manager and all you have to do is hold down the "ok" button and the task manager appears.
The task manager is included since WM5 and if I remember it correct since WM2003, new is that it is available from the ok-button (I think this is palm-specific).
I use wisbar lite, not free, but easy to use and also with the buttons of all apps on top and You can configure it to close every app with the "X" instead of minimizing it.

I'm glad it works on square screen, because it's truly the most important utility on my TyTN.
HI all,
New to this forum.
I got an XDA Orbit 2 and I am trying to investigate its features. Can someone tell me how I can change the Windows mobile screen to make it more user friendly such as showing waether, missed calls etc.
I found some apps on this forum but I did not know whether I could install them on my mobile.
Possible I want apps which do not change the bootloader.
It already has touchflo installed.
Thx
with touuchflo installed you should have weather features installed.
however, if you would like to change touch flo design, you can install applications like HHC(htc home customizer) and probably Touch Settings.
You will find this apps using search feature of this forum
HI,
The today screen is like a normal windows mobile screen. So I was thinking of changing it to something more nice.
In order to open touchflo I need to slide my finger up, so basically the today screen does not show all the things in one place.
The most important thing is that anything that I install should be uninstalled easily so if it does not work I can uninstall it wo problems.
Thanks
plug-ins for Orbit 2
Hi Newera,
Not everyone will understand what you require because the touch cruise comes with the HTC home plug-in as standard and they don't realise that O2 have their own version of the 'today' screen.
I have an Orbit 2 from 02 and I have a nice working setup.
The version of the HTC Home plugin you want and which I know works with the Orbit2 is:
HTC.Kaiser.Home.Eng.0409.6Tab.Schen
Other versions of the plugin will not have a working brightness tab and the weather may not be able to download and other shortfalls but I can guarantee this one works on the Orbit 2. Just search the forums for this file and you should find a link to it.
Should you have problems finding it, send me a pm and I'll mail it to you.
Once you have the cab file you put it on your storage card and install it from there and soft reset your Xda. You can then set your tabs as you like them and adjust what appears on what remains of your today screen to your liking.
I also highly, highly recommend downloading slide to unlock:
S2U2-1.05-WM5
It's a fantastic programme and much better than the standard lock feature on the Orbit 2.
There's also a much better HTC calculator interface:
touch_calculator
Do a search and you should find them on here easily. Again, if you have problems, just let me know.

RLToday? Thats what I use. Requires some work but can produce some good results.
http://rotlaus-software.de/projects/rltoday
Getting ready to purchase 2 FUZE's. One for my wife and myself. She wants the iphone but I think the FUZE is the way to go for 2 big reasons. The FM radio is a must and the being able to watch the slingbox. I have read the wiki, noob rom basics, and this is what I am thinking.
I think upon reading i will need to
1. Hardspl the phone. (can you do this with a VISTA?)
2. Choose rom (NATF ver 2.3 seems the way to go)
a. I think his rom unlocks the fm radio no need for a cab file
b. I think it pulls up you tube from hidden att menu correct
3. Dont think I need to do anything to the radio as far as rom.
4. Patience...maybe play with phone for 2 months before trying to flash
a. Might be better off flashing from start since not used to phone any way
Anything else you think might be helpful before I purchase...
nervous and excited
Youre pretty much righton the money with everything... although speaking from personal experience dont waste any more than the first 10 mintues youd use to make sure the phone powers on with the stock ATT rom. Ive heard good things about NATFs rom...i personally use PROvens. just be sure of two things HARDSPL before flashing a GSM (not cdma) rom and also you will need to revert back to original spl and rom if you need warranty service
alright heres my 2 cents..i got mine last week and had a kaiser before and i have gone through stages of flash junkyness and from my experience with a wide variety of roms i went with Monx' RomeOS..he made pretty good kaiser roms (even tho i always stuck with L26's roms and Dutty before he left) so i noticed monx on here and his rom is off the hook..havent tried the other ones but by default ROMeOS is hooked up..you have alot of stuff in the system menus like forcehires (for forcing qvga to vga) you have alot of tweaks already in place but heres some really great programs that really open up the functionality of your fuze
and heres a link to a VERY thourough guide another xdaer set up with all the cabs he talks about
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446306
and heres some info n my setup which ive acquired through the use of my tilt and now some changes with my fuze to form what ive found to to give the fuze the most capability
resco file explorer - really good touch optimized file explorer
quickmenu - cascading type of start menu that really rocks and has alot of extra functions
aebuttons - allows you to map applications to all buttons on the fuze (like camera for the ptt)and even multiple apps for each button (1 press, 2 press, 3 presses, press and hold)
gscroll - allows you to use the front button pad as a touch screen and act as a dpad or scroll and even use your gsensor as a dpad or scrolling and EVEN add more app shortcuts to double tapping the 4 butons on the front pad (because you are TAPPING not pressing it utlizes the touch screen not the hardware press)
gyrator - good autorotation app
htorch - use flash as a light
lumos - better than default auto backlight manager
wktask - give you tabs on your top bar like on your desktop windows task bar
thumbcal - finger friendly calender (very nice)
icontact - best finger friendly contact manager
xbar - when you hold down the action button it pops up in a little
window and acts a as a task manager and has menus as well whch you can
put shortcuts in too
heres a link to my cabs
http://www.4shared.com/file/74989849/d6a4d6e4/Fuze_Cabs.html
Thanks for the tips above. It is confusing reading all the different cabs out there because the descriptions given are vague at times to what they accomplish. I saw a you tube video of a FUZE and the sluggishnish seemed to be gone. I wondered how did they do that and then got to here. I am really looking for a rom that will decrease the sluggishness and remove the hard to read grey screen. Unlocking the radio feature was a bonus that pushed me to this phone.
Also for the cabs you listed above are they in one file for all the one listed above. When i hit the link I see on file only. I thought it would be one for each.
I think today is the day I order my FUZE!!!!
that file is a zip with most of those cabs.. if u get a chance tonight ill find and up all those cabs yo my 4shared page
Thanks Paz...got my fuze yesterday. I works and I have not done anything with it. I will try to hardspl it this weekend. just trying to decide on a rom. It is a must to include the radio but I need to make a cool theme and icon look for the wife's fuze. I dont think she is digging it. I think its the grey att stock rom background.
I would say the best way to spice up her phone is to get
S2U2 (Iphone like unlock slider on the dev and hack forum)
S2P
Rotating wallpaper (24 pictures that cycle every hour)
Galarm
Custom themes are located in a few places so look around (Diamond, Dev and hack, Raph)
I have to say, you should NOT get your wife any ppc phone unless she has some sort of knowledge about the WinMo OS. Otherwise you're going to have to be tech support for her from here on out like I was with the wife's 8525. I recently got her an iPhone 3G and, after the initial setup and basic instruction, she hasn't had to ask me a single question about how to make something work and has been able to download and install the apps she wants on her own.
You can say whatever you want about the iPhone, but it is the best phone for people who want a powerful device and have no clue what the hell they're doing. It really is the consummate idiot-proof device. (No offense to my wife if all the stars aligned and she finds this on google or something)
I agree

I agree with this statement. I started out with the HTC S710, S730, and when I got my Kaiser last year, I got my girlfriend an Iphone. Why? Because it's really idiot proof, so to say. It does not crash. Does not require any real setup. She has enjoyed it from day 1 and uses it everyday without resetting for weeks! Works great with the dock (it rings from the phone, not through the damn connected speakers.. even if they are off!)
With all that said, I will never purchase an Iphone for myself.
I'd like to announce freshly baked version of FTouchSL 2.10.
The new version brings better compatibility with newest HTC Touch devices (HD, Diamond, Pro) as well as work on Samsung Omia i900 was significantly improved. Of course, we've tried to fix all bugs known at the moment.

Problems with Blackstone
I installed version 2.10 and put the data key in the folder with the program. I then set it up by enabling scrolling and disabling native scrolling. For a while it was absolutely brilliant, as brilliant as it's been on other phones I've had, like the Trinity.
But then when I went back to TF3D and scrolled around my tabs, I discovered that the weather tab froze when it went to update the forecast. Soft reset. Likewise the stocks tab, which also updates when it's activated. Soft reset. Other tabs - photos tab, programs tab, etc - had no problems and scrolled and took gestures as expected.
The problem never resolved itself, so I uninstalled FTouchSL. But guess what - those two tabs never worked at all after that. Any time I so much as visit them, Manila just freezes, and nothing short of a soft reset fixes the problem. I decided I could live without the two tabs, but due to the wierd combination of tabs I have and a kludgy relationship with the Advanced Configuration program, I've been unable to remove them.
Ultimately I had to hard reset and restore an old backup. Lost rather a bit of data, though of course that's hardly your fault.
There seems to be an incompatibility between FTouchSL and the updating function in TF3D; what it could be I have no idea.
Is the discount still valid?
