Real VGA that works! (tested on LAurentius' and beast's AKU 0.5 (v1 update)

after searching and searching for possible resource files for an ozVGA hack... i accidentally stumbled upon a VGA hack from somewhere in the forums... didnt know it will work but just tested it anyhow...and wow! first time i was able to appreciate real VGA in all its glory... no more missing icons or displays...
important!!! i am not the author of this software... i just found it and would like to share it to my current family (UNiversal).... hehe!
all credits go to the author, tobias.waldvogel in the athena forums! cheers! you made a working REAL VGA program! finally!!!!
what is good about the program:
1) you can choose 96, 128 or 192 dpi settings
2) all icons/notifications/etc can can be seen
3) texts in the today bar are all present! (signal, battery, clock, volume, etc)
4) now you can use the htc home plugin with no problem! (in REAL vga)
5) very very minor font issues
***I am not liable for hard resets! i just want to share! if you're not sure what you're doing, maybe you should wait for other people to try it first and wait for their opinion on this software
sorry for 1 link only... i cannot upload it here... tried about 4 times already..

Excellent find ! Works with my old trusted Darkforce rom. These threads are indeed a treasure trove. Keep finding excellent software.

Great software, thanks mate! Works with Midget_1990 v1.0!

Yup, confirmed working & stable in Uni after 3 days of use. HTC Home now displays better although notification counts still cut-off/partially hidden at 128 dpi. Most progs are compatible except in my case 1-calc.
Credit should be given to: tobias.waldvogel of Athena forum here at XDA-Dev on the thread pointed out above by fallenczar!

I'm interested to learn about the application of real-VGA.
Why we will be needing real-VGA where we have high resolution in PIE...?

been following the development of this app from the athena forum and this latest release is really impressive.
the original thread is vga 144. thanks to tobias.

My GOD!!!!It becomes qtek 9000 screen beautiful!!!!
Incredible work!!

First of all congratulations ranju for the nice ROM (judging from the posts in your thread)!
With RealVGA we get to use HTC Home Today plugin which doesn't display well in QVGA. A lot of today screen space is also realized as well as getting to see a lot more on the screen on other VGA-aware progs. The drawback is when non VGA-aware programs are run, the fonts (& icons) are veeery small to be read/seen.
Can't comment on games as I don't use mine for that kind of stuff, but some say that VGA games are cool in Real VGA!

can someone post the cab file here? it keeps bumming me saying the rapidshare download limit has reached
thanks in advance!

I got an error: using higher resolutions, if I would like to set alarm, got error message: "No program memory available...".
Switch back to 192dpi everything is working normally.

YES! I also got this error!
And I found some error about Windows Live, the icon of MSN Messeger are wrongly displayed.
offiline logo = online
DND logo = offline

I've just downloaded and installed this file, and let me thank you for this.
And... Here is my two cents, i just wanted to share my experiences on how programs behaved in this mode.
The icons at SPB Today plugin doesn't display.
The Task manager icon is corrupted and is hard to click on it.
I've resetted my PDA twice since i installed this and both resets required another reset since it stuck at windows logo.
When i opened VC Painter.. well, it kinda crashed and i had to reset.
I've opened Pocket Artist, it works well except the icons at the toolbar can not be seen unless you click and wait on over them.
Opera seems better this way, you really enjoy browsing in fullscreen. Well, at least whilst opera "can" open web sites as it's supposed to be. I still am struggling for using meebo.com.
Minimo, the browser that i could barely have had any surfing experiences since it drives me crazy, is worse than Opera at browsing but works at RealVGA mode, well... kinda! (It crashed again when i tried opening a website.
The dialer skin doesn't fit the screen good enough. It has a blank space at down as big as the "Hide Keypad - Menu" bar is.
In this mode, viewing photos is a feast since you can view them in their original resolutions.
Resco Audio Recorder application denies the screen res. and tries to open like it was in back. It feels like they've coded their program to fill the screen according to ratios. Looks bad.
Wohoo! Keepass looks fantastic!
Novii Remote doesn't run at this screen resolution... *sniff*
pTravelAlarm's skin looks like crap, pity...
psShutXP feels more like real,
Voice2Go behaves just like Vito Audio Notes,
There're some minor font issues when i was exploring settings...
Oh and, it drains memory!

hi dreamtheater... i also had the same problem before...
i think these are the files i used for the htc home plugin....
htc home plugin: rt HTC home 2.0
htc home plugin customizer: HHCv08b.cab
this home plugin is the one with the 6 tabs... you can enable this using the customizer... you can also change the clock skins, icons, etc.
makes your home plugin look even better...
no other requirements except that you must be in wm6 for this particular plugin i posted (and in realVGA to get correct display).... i know i read somewhere that they were able to make a Cab to make the htc home plugin run on a wm5 device...

I tried to search but seems like forever for me to find a WM5 compatible HTC home plugin. Anyone kind enough to point me some directions?

im not sure about this but it was tested on an apache running wm5...
maybe you can try it and confirm so that others can use it too

Touchflo Cube - questions

Sorry, if this doesn't belong in its own topic, place it where it needs be i guess, but I am wondering if there is a fix for the TNT cube for the contacts side. MY quick dial on HTC Home works fine, but nothing shows up on the contacts side of the cube except dead buttons and a bunch of sillhouettes.
HTC Tmobile MDA G3 with TNT.19213_Professional_Wizard and TNT_Cube__TNT.1933_1620_and_later_
any help or suggestions? Other than that, this is my first ROM and I like my MDA again thanks to TNT. Awesome ROM.

first off, i am not a proponent of bumping one's own topic but... here i go. is there a version of the cube that works with TNT and the contacts page works? I have read elsewhere that people have this same problem. Do I need to reflash, is it a bug? Pleas advise.

got the same issue...
doesnt look like there is a fix available. probably have to wait till someone fixes it

Manilla 2D in HTC Wizard

Has anyone installed the Manilla 2D in HTC Wizard running a Windows Mobile 5?
I tried installing it in mine and after the restart, the HTC Home plugin vanished altogether and there was nothing else.
On checking the Today items, there was no Touch Flo listed nor the HTC home plugin I was using earlier was listed.
A quick check in the registry showed the entries for Touch Flo (and also for the vanished HTC home) present under the Today registry entries.
Does this thing work on WM5 at all?
Am I missing something?
NOTE: I also installed the shared dll cab file.

Why don't you say it?

always the same: a junior member trys a app, has a problem and opens a new thread (!) instead of posting in the right application thread or search there. frustrating and stupid.

Snniiff i have a wizard in wm6.1 , and i can t use manilla2D

This is a very Valid Thread,
But I will move it to the Wizard WM6 forum.
WM5 don't count on it, unless Dfereira comes back from sabatical
Also made it Temp Sticky because of it's current importance and interest.
Hope you guys get it figured out.
I have a wizard to Test out what you guys can dish out.

i try this

but manilla2D don t play

This is now a Wizard thread.
Well here's what i'll be testing this weekend.
As i placed the new shared dll's into the rom i got no double file notice while using build OS.
So that means the files weren't there to begin with.
Which propalby means it's missing some registry entries to those files (besides the ones in the RGU file)
So that's the first thing to try.
After that it's comparing and comparing.
Volume did not work Start menu and Title bar did work.
Nice kitchen by the way makes a fast little rom so J.VD. Great simple Oem Pack, it's been two years since i cooked myself my own wizard.
No let's see if there's still some of the old Wizard Folk checking this forum, that have now turned cook that also want to return home.

Interesting
A moderator that has time to cook and for wizard men!!!
Hope it will be a good nice PRO try for TF2D in wizard, i think we cant do much cause the omap 195mhz so
GIVE IT A TRY is the cause of XDA isnt it?

I have decided tonight to finish why i studied Cooking.
I Will Come home to finally cook a wizard ROM, and hopefully i will get a of the SPC crew along.
But i will need a little help, i've been spoiled not needing an Ext Rom anymore on the Elves, luckily i know how to use the search function
You heard it here first.

if works i send you a hot brazilian chick as reward ;P
better then any buck on paypal

Nice, new serious topic for wizard.
Nice to see you here Noonski. i Hope porting its possible.
For my opinion : Manilla2D crash because DLL is missing or REg key is missing.

i will definitely be watching this .
hope it goes well

nice job in advance
waiting for the ROM

Really need to do some reading up first.
I'm thinking of using the Ext Rom a little bit differently.
Like move Some of the Skin files that don't need to be there.
Haven't seen that been done before
Just an idea, never tried it.
As for M2D at the moment, i would not bet on it. (don't want to set impossible standards at the moment)
That would really need Dfereira's experience for when he ported HTCHome to WinMob 5.

Maybe i can help.. If you need me PM me.

I'm also trying my best here and I'm trying some drivers from elf to see if it makes any differants.. we'll se how it goes and if I get anywhere it will also work on prophet

Love TF3D but I miss my WM Today screen

Been using TF3D on Energy Warhark ROM for my Raphael. I like TF3D now that it works (in the non-stock ROM). But - I miss today screen on WM. Specifically - I need to see my tasks list often and I also like SPB insight runing. Anyone know how to switch fast between manila and WM Today w/o tediously going to setting tab? Or better yet, a tweak for manila for tasks tab?

what you can do is find the "search" link on top and use it.

Look for Manila Detacher. There's a newer app like it in the raph software forum, but I can't remember the name. There's also the Manla Today Tab, but it may not work on that version of Manila.

Second Today is another ap.
You can configure it to run TF3D and set one of your soft keys to Second Today and you can toggle between interfaces.
I run this also in conjunction with SPB Mobile Shell, on the other soft key just to show off....

I have updated this thing using the 23070/23071 build in Ivan's Super Just Kitchen. I wanted to contribute something to the community for those who are either new to flashing their Wing, or those who don't have a regular SD card and can't do a HardSPL. It's got just the basics to get one by. www.thewingster.com is a great place to find additional apps for your phone like Office and Adobe Reader.
Below is some details regarding this latest creation.

Suggestions and tutorials are welcome... after all I am still a Noob, I promise this ROM will not set your wing on fire. Credit goes to Ivanmmj for all his hard work into the kitchen! Also credit goes out to the artists who designed the pics I used for the boot, welcomehead, and wallpaper

I am still trying to figure out how to edit the default home screen with different things. Cause IE is lamzor is the favorites...but you can't edit the favorites....I guess I will have to turn into a forum troll.

Your guess is as good as mine, I manually put in that wall paper after flashing. But that would be another thing I would like to know as well hehe

Well you can flash this one to your ROM, you just have to do the Herald Keyboard Fix found on the forums somewhere here. That's the only difference between the phones.

Good lookin out on that info man. Now I know (and knowing is half the battle). I'll have a 23081 build up later on today hehe.
UPDATE: 23081 has it's ups and downs, I am still tryin to work out some bugs (SIP switching issue, and shortcut problem). Not sure if I should just go with EZinput or still work on fingerkb... the shortcuts is a whole different problem. Time is somewhat of an issue as well. Perhaps I should try beefing up 23071, I dunno at this point...
ANOTHER UPDATE: decided against throwing 23081 up coz it's not respecting my authority! but enjoy my latest creation

I really like this ROM but when it is installed I can not get online, if I use the Glass ROM or the original I get online no problem until I install this one I am probally not doing something right

From what I notice I guess some ROM's already have carrier settings plugged into them. I've got a thread over here that should help u get back online.

I'm guessing you're talking about the t-mo settings. Thanks for confirming it works... I always wanna post just good info... since I'm on AT&T it's kinda hard for me to confirm the t-mo post. If you like this one, you'll like my 23089 I should be uploading soon.

Congrats, Gonz.
One day I am going to compile my own ROM. I want to wait though and see if my ROM ideas get created by Microsoft first..
Good luck,

hey do i need to format to fat32 and flash to sd for this update??

The thing is designed to be used through the RUU, but if you want I don't see any issue with flashing through an SD card.
Make sure you're Hard_SPL, and as long as your card is a regular Micro SD and not SDHC... have at it.
I should really throw a new release out there
