Cook a ROM for MWg Zinc II? - General Questions and Answers

Hi friends! I find that the current ROM on the MWg Zinc II is not stable at all. Is it possible for someone to cook a ROM for MWg Zinc II?

check mwg for the updated one. works fine for me. I am curious about a custom rom as well.

I've got the Zinc II, Wondering if its the same as any other devices, it hard to fine it listed in many websites or support forums
I'm looking to get a registry hack similar to the kaiser to speed up keyboard response, and to shut off LED coverage indicator.
Thanks

Moving to the Q&A forum. Also leaving a 1 month expiring re-direct. Thank you for understanding.

anyone? mine slowly runs out of memory (memory leak?), and at the end of the day it hangs already...also the screen locks / does not work after i turn it on the second time from sleep mode, i have to reset for the screen to work...very frustrating...

Did you upgrade to the latest ROM? I don't have this problem at all. Mine is running at tip top performance. If no, you can get it here:

Make sure you have more than 50% battery when doing this.

hi, yah installed already the current rom. I installed winterface 1.12, sms-chat 1.16 and icontact 0.81...these are running all the time...i also installed newsbreak, pocket cm image viewer, esmertec jbed for opera mini, garmin gps with maps (on minisdhc), fring, lexisgoo dictionary, touch response, samsung time, quickmenu, pointui and resco explorer 2008...these are the programs i installed on my former zinc/marsII with no problems..
by the way, i am using an 8gb minisdhc card with no problem at all...i replaced my ipod nano 8gb with this, although i am using my motorola s9 bt headphone because there is no standard 3.5mm hole for standard headphones...
I really hope a cooked rom would be available soon (no pressure on anyone though)....my original zinc did improve once i got its cooked rom before...
thanks for your concern, lets keep our fingers crossed...

Mwg zinc ii can finally be flashed with cook rom by I-mono-I! Go to www.mwgusers.co.cc to flash now!

Nice
All we need now are some Professional Rom Cookers to start tinkering with the newest XIPs and sys's, maybe an custom Touch screen Driver for faster response, maybe a tweak for the Keyboard to get rid of the delay

TouchFlo ROM on Kaiser?

Hi,
Does anyone know if someone is creating a TouchFlo ROM for the Kaiser? I've seen the ones developed for the Wizard and Hermes which are very cool but I doubt either of these would work on a Kaiser.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks.
First we need to bypass bootloader protections to flash unsigned code, then doing the ROM with htc home plugin & elf skinning will be a matter of minutes.
in the new ROM (with gps activated ) it seem HTC have put much of Touch\Elf.....

Can you elaborate on this. Which features are already present?
I haven't seen or used the HTC Touch yet but I haven't found anything different in the Kaiser thusfar (and my GPS is enabled as TomTom is working fine)

It all depends on the unit itself wether its sim, cid, or both unlocked. My unit is locked to UK Tmobile and wont accept any other roms such as cingular n etc. Luckily the T-Mobile in UK announced the Kaiser to be available in August. Hopefully a rom gets leaked soon so I cna bring mine to life ...O

Rom-version 1.49.172.2 Dutch:
in Settings/System/ there is an option called TouchFLO.
With it you can do the following:
(translated from Dutch) Turn sound on when horizontally and vertically sliding finger.
(for Dutchmen: Geluid bij horizontaal en verticaal verschuiven met vinger inschakelen)
Don't really think it's that fancy, and I haven't gotten in to work yet, maybe when playing an MP3
Kurgann:
Did you buy it in NL? and if so where? My supplier says they wont be available for sale until end of Sept.

Tytn II comes with TouchFlo
Yes, I got mine today and the touchflo technology is integrated. unfortunately not the cube.
Tried the cube alpha but only get black screen. so we have to wait until it is "opened" and roms can be cooked. Then I think its easier to integrate than in the hermes...
it works for me but it's far from perfect, works with the button and I have to reinitialize it after each time it's going to standby and back so I'm so surprised with the replay that it works with the finger slide.

GPS s/w (MapKing 2007) not working in WM6.1

As in topic, i've tried to flash to a couple of cooked WM 6.1.
but sad to say, my MapKing just won't load up.
got hang up & it just sit there whole day.
any solution?
can't live w/o the GPS.
You're using G10 or R12 version of MapKing? As far as Ive seen, R12 is the newer version and it takes a hell lot of memory compared to G10.
I wish Google Maps were offline
Regards,
Carty..
yes, go back to 6.0
wtf is up with ppl upgrading to 6.1 and then *****ing that some software doesnt work

do u've a solution for mi?
it's not working on my TyTN II as well as Cruise.
i'm not sure if it's with the WM6.1 or the s/w itself.
i bet u're just trying to clock more post by posting some sh|t around.
if ppl like you did more research instead of posting crap like this, the ppl like me dont need to clock more post by posting useless ****.
if you did search you might find that some ppl are having problems using gps with 6.1, not the same software but some might apply to your case, there is even someone who confirms that mapking 2007 works on 6.1
I have MK2007 and have used it with no problems using Duttys 6.1 UC ROM... didnt do anything special except run GPSTool (or QuickGPS) before hand and it picked up about 5 or 6 sats....
you gotta put more info then that. Has it worked before? Do you know the software is compatible? Are you sure you are using the right settings? COM4??? Has other software work okay on your device? Try GPStool and see if you can even pick up GPS satelittes at all.
MK just won't load up, i can't even get into the MK.
okie: here's my update.
MK 2007 doesn't seems to work, i've try the original MapKing R12 (Bundle) & it works like a charm.
did it on my TyTN II, now even SPB Clone is working.
will try out on the Cruise later.

Help me with choosing good ROM

Hi there,
Simply, I need help and advice regarding Polaris ROM's
I was looking for answer in ROM Development section many times(FAQ too), but all topics are so confusing(disorganised, confusing and uninformative) that I'm losing my sanity.
I was trying few roms(like panosha think), but unfortunately dissapointed me(bugs, unresolved issues etc.)
So what i need is quite simple in fact:
-fast, stable 6.1 or 6.5 version
-bug free or at least little bugs
-fully working radio(bluetooth, wifi, 3G and GPS)
-need default microsoft keyboard
Don't need gizmos, although nice GUI is a good point to go.
Thank you in advance.
tl;dr
Help me finding best ROM
go to htc support page scroll down to the bottom of the page, enter your phone's serial number and you will download the newest official ROM, with update utility included.
a good rom for polaris..
It's been more than 1 year that I use the rom called 3LIT3 (FULL VERSION) on both my 2 polaris... they work very well, 3LIT3 is really a fantastic / fast/ bug-free rom. I have the "3LIT3 V FULL WWE" VERSION.. and I can guarantee for this one only. I know there are the VI, the VII and the VIII versions of the same rom, but for sure number V is absolutely perfect. Everything including bluetooth, gps, external speaker, battery, wi-fi ecc ecc is working very well, without bugs...and including footprints!!
AH I FORGOT this rom is based on WM6.1 plus manila2d of course...
You got just to update the google maps cab..and your poleris will FLY!!!.
@faredino
thx for the tip this rom ist the best rom i´ve tested
i had m-amines, which is also nice but not as fast as lit3
i had pcars 6.5 rom, which is good but very slow (i think 6.5 is´nt the right thing for polaris)
and since a few days the lite3 VIII, which blew my mind...very very good work a pitty that he stopped working on it
so if you need a good stable rom take lit3 !
How about 6.5 recommendations?
So what's a good bet for WM6.5?
Was using pcarvalho's latest (24DEC09) but it has been freezing up & generally running very laggy. My Orbit 2 is going to my wife so I need something friendly as it gets whilst also reliable & quick. WM6.1 comes over too strong on the 3LIT3 ROMs...
i just tested pcars and kostas, but haven´t found a better rom then lit3, it got not the nice appearance of wm6.5, but i prefer speed and smoothnes

Tried, tested and i can confirm that.
Stable, bug free with nice gui.
Thank you.
3lit mmm, too slow for me.. too much stuff, probably many of them will never be used.
obviously you pay your many stuff with -speed!
a 400mhz processor can perform more than that, it have to, with 3lit I felt like going back to omap 201mhz ppc generation...
I have two Polaris and on both I have returned after many tries to an official 6.1 ROM, with radio updated, and tomtom7.
I think it's all what you need, a fast and crashless rom,
for me it's just all I need
Recently I have upgraded to 3LIT3 VIII FULL ITA....
...definitely my fav's ROM!!!!!!!!!
Will thank chavonbravo for the rest of... the days of my both polaris!!
If you're also using that rom, please consider a donation to the great mind of chavonbravo!
Also..anyone has changed the rom's keyboard? i think that is the only "not really perfect" issue of 3LIT3_VIII.. but it is overall GOOD anyway
Bye everybody,

Hello,
I am looking for this option to download a new rom but i can not find.

I am afraid downloads on HTC home page are no longer available. License for WM has expired some time ago.
Search on Touch Cruise ROM development page though.

[Q] VERY SLOW Raphael

Hi There,
I have HTC Touch Pro (GSM) running very slow on both windows mobile and android. about six month ago, It have no problem at all.., i can play divx/xvid smoothly, and some 3d game without a pain.but now, it only in my dream to have angrybird playable/ watching smooth divx videos.
I already hard reset, changed ROM, reformat sdcard, but have no luck. I feel everyday my raphael going slower....
how can i restore my raphael performance?
same problem here...my tp is realy slow since 2 month and duno why
same problem
Same problem here (raphael), but after 2.5y. Its look like "some ****ty switch turn on"... after hardreset also... so maybe some HW problem? Who know...
Disable manila. If you flash roms, get one without Sense. That's my advice.
Also, try getting sk tools and running Clean occasionally. Finally, try this tweak. It really helps (but only do it once).

or use stock manilla 1.0. i had this problem on my touch hd, i was using sense 2.5 which was designed for hd2. i used the stock rom again and it was lighnting quick
i have the same problem,which is the best rom for speed?
it can be a bad flash... i have been using NRG roms for a very long time, but the after the last flash, my raph was crawling... i flashed a newer version and it is all right now.
try the rom in my signature, energy roms here
when i had my raph100 it was going quite fast, not as fast as you would expect but it did have som flow atleast. i reinstalled the rom once when hard-reset wasen´t working and it made the phone fast again. sorry if someone else posted this before, i didnt read the tread

[Q] Is This Best Forum For A Memory Question?

I just got a Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2. I know, I'm late to the party.
Have a memory question: Using Task Manager - Viewing Processes I see Device.exe is/was using over 12 MB of memory. I did a soft reset and then Device.exe shows 8.85. What kind of foolishness is going on and can anything be done to prevent squandering of precious memory?
Also when I added up all the memory in processes there is a difference of about 45 MB between what the memory adds up to in processes and what Task Manager shows in Program Memory. Who stole the 45 MB?
Using Windows 6.5 with HTC Sense 2.5 and CHT(Cookies Home Tab) 1.85 which is the best theme I've ever used. Also Duttys Task Manager is a cab I couldn't do without.
I chose CHT over SPB Mobile Shell although I do miss a couple of the SPB widgets.
I had thought of an answer for you but my memory isn't what it used to be.
But seriously, try a rom without 2.5 and CHT and you'll be surprised how much memory you have. I suggest using a rom with Sense 2.1 or Rhodium Manila.
Mr. horndoctor: Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I don't/can't flash. Tried..failed..gave up.
By the way, did you belong to the HTC Touch forum? I think there was a horndoctor that was there.

Yep, that's me!
I suggest flashing back to the Sprint 6.1 shipped rom. I personally use it. Even though it doesn't have all the eye candy that other roms have it is stable and works great. You don't have to be unlocked to flash it just download it to your pc, sync with your device and click on the exe to flash it. In my opinion, there are a lot of problems with the Sprint shipped 6.5 rom.
Thanks for the insight.
Could you elaborate about what you think are some of the issues?
I've had a few Touch Pro 2's and the first 2 locked up a lot but the one I have now hasn't locked up yet (about a week).
Other then that no real problems.
I wanted the 6.1 memory manager and I got that. I went back and forth between SPB Mobile Shell and HTC Sense but with the Cookie Home Tab theme I really am very pleased with it now. I would like to have the birthday/anniversary widget that is build into MS because it is so fast but I have settled for ManilaBirthday.cab.
If you know of a similar program to ManilaBirthday but is fast I'd like to try it.
If you haven't checked out CHT you really should. Nicest most powerful theme I've ever seen and so far very stable.
By the way I read a lot of your posts from the Touch Forum and got a lot of help from you. Thanks for that too.

You're very welcome! It makes me feel good that my efforts might have helped you in any way.
The Sprint 6.5 shipped TP2 rom is based on an early build of 6.5 with Sense 2.5 that has proved to be buggy and very ram hungry. I just don't recommend it but if you are running fine on it then just go with it. You can always flash later to a different rom.
Good Luck!
