got my fuze. Now what? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

to my fellow posters,
phew, after a long time waiting, and searching; the fuze has arrived. Its a nice phone, sleek; i just wish i had the original HTC TouchFLo instead of att crap. Build quality feels a little cheap, thank god for the insurance, a relief for us whom bought a tilt when they launched with no insurance. Though i hear the deductible is steep. Had a quick time at the at&t store, when it finally got to my turn. Joseph was nice and informative. I was not given free car charger and/or case like some lucky users, though i did take a swing at it.
So its here now, so what to do now guys? What are recommended roms, and programs etc? I want this phone to do everything lol
really would like :
touch pro EURO touchflo interface(if possible)
nice browsern and all that good stuff. Lets all come together and gasp in Fuze joy! Thanks guys!

hey asad:
bro you are asking questions that are really based on individual taste. What rom is recommended could differ heavily from one user to another .. imo monx aka hung tuah's roms are pretty good. I have tried his kaiser roms they are good.
as far as changing touchflo interface you can just flash a different rom that has the euro version or wait for someone to use a att build and incorporate the euro touchpro interface etc...
I would recommend looking around and searching for various cabs. The sky is the limit !!!

I am hungry, can you please tell me what I would like to eat?
No really, that is up to you! But if you ask me, try the RomeOS 1.40 I think it works best for now!
Also maybe you should consider changing the radio for better performance!
Good luck!

this is so simple its unbelievable you didnt look this up before buying your fuze
go to the diamond forum and get tf3d configurator you can put so many themes on

Got mine today also!
I put my tilt on sale last night just in case the Fuze was out, and bought my Fuze today also. the rom is slow and sluggish I need a rom fast. The phone is cool though, a little smaller than I thought, but cool.

In my experience of trying them out over the past couple of weeks, most of them dont work on the Fuze in landscape mode. Hopefully that will change now that there are so many Fuzes out there!
I know Nisse has a couple that work on the Fuze so he is a good place to start. (I've been running his HTC Black theme since he released it and i like it a LOT better than the stock AT&T theme...)

In the Phone's settings, System Tab, Disable AGPS, go to External GPS, set the GPS program port to COM0.
Start up WLM, and your GPS will work perfectly

im using 02 blue that one is working so far but of course landscape is boring gray
and what must i do to make gps work with google maps it doesnt seem to find a satellite?
and im using romeos now

Everything one needs to do a Tilt to TYTN 2 conversion!

So far it seems that you need 3 things to turn a Tilt into a TYTN 2
1. Hard SPL
2. Kaiser Shipped ROM
3. Keyboard fix
I haven't gone about doing my conversion just yet.. but it seems that these are the only required apps?
I would appreciate it if an experianced individual could provide a confimation or correction to my thoughts.
Dont have a tilt but looks good

got a tilt, done what you posted and it's still not a tytn2 or it is?
lol....anyways, you got the steps down so flash on brother.
Thats exactly what I did. Good luck with it, and enjoy
Sounds good to me, course my Tilt ROM didn't last longer than 10 minutes past charging time...HELLO AustinSync Big ROM!
your forgot "custom fob your own front facing camera for video calling"
since AT&T screwed us over on that one.
Would u say the shipped kaiser rom is better then the att rom??

Yep, the Camera in the front, and also u gotta unlock your phone, then u pretty much have a TYTN II.........Good luck with that!
Ok so after flashing the phone... i wanna get rid of the ATT branding and replace it with my custom Terrorist branding.. anyone got any ideas?
rofl terrorist? wtf
So my Tilt comes in tomorrow! So my question is, is the Kaiser Shipped ROM the best way to go? Any other suggestions from Tilt users on the other ROMs (there does not seem to be many). Perhaps the Kaiser AKU.0.7.0 Cooked ROM?
for me personally go with Dutty's rom! They are fast, stable, lots of apps, and of course like any rom you can tweak away!
I have a tilt and i am using Dutty's, probably the best out there in my opinion

6.1 rom older dialler

Hi,
Has anyone got the old style dialer, im using duttys 6.1 which is awasome but i dont get on with the new dialer and defaul call filter, After the old one that was a blue color that if you pressed down it went to speedials and left i think went to call log (all filter).
Thanks a lot
Jason
Man, Dialers arent made the same, one thing i reliazed is that HTC dialers are slow, i hate having to press a couple of times to end call & close the dialer & still wait about a second.
I just tried Alex's Ultra clean rom wich is using HTC dialer but its tweaked nicely 4 speed or is it the rom?
The dialer that comes with Duttys rom is faster then HTC but i dont like the GUI.
I had the Imate Ultimate 9502 & the dialer is by far the fastest with great gui, now if someone can find that, would be awsome.
I would love a dialer where once i press end call it instantly closes.
The search 4 the top dialers+ tweaks continues =)
have you got a pic and the link to the cab?
Picture has been added later. But I guess he's asking the same as you do, where is the CAB?
The dialer you are asking about in the first post is in the latest ROM Dutty made.
Dont suppose anyone has the actual cab as my current duttys rom is spot on and i dont want to re rom it again as mine is just right.
Thanks
Jason

Do you still have your I-mate I was thinking of getting that phone but I thought I read that it was not going to be coming out.

Yes, I'm also looking for this dialer. It's not in the latest dutty rom. When you press right it opens the call log.
try this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=72160&d=1203744007
I installed this in dutty's latest ROM (April 16th), and it worked. Same as the original HTC dialer.
The imate was a great phone, I loved the VGA screen, the great dialer speed & looks, Keyboard was good but not great, all in all it was a joy to see imate finally coming out with a great phone, but I had to revert back to HTC cause I was dying of agony of not being able to flash & try other ROMs.
zakhir_n: I tried that dialer, still slow, back to the trusty Dutty's dialer 4 the time being.

Hell yeah and loved it. But it made a high pitches noise that not everyone could hear. I sent it in for repair and they sent me a new one with a louder high pitch sound from the screen, so I sold it. I loved the phone I am not impressed with the camera on this phone. BTW I am loving Ultimate Launch.

Future New HTC Raphael User

Hi!
I'm looking to get a Touch Pro as soon as my Orange contract is up (couple of weeks) - I see a lot of people saying that as soon as they got it, once they put in a decent ROM it all worked great.. question then is - I see lots of roms, but I can't see any "numpty" description of what each offers and why i'd want to use it?
Am I missing something really obvious ?
Thanks!
Matt.

Yes I think you do. Raphael has plenty of memory and stock rom is good enough with TF3D (which most of us agree that is very good and finger friendly). So needed changes are only for tweeking TF3D or remove some "un-usefull" applications.
There is no competitive phone out there to get something from.
With my Artemis I flashed meschle 's rom to have goodies from Touch, Iphone etc. With Raphael there is no need for this. I 'm satisfied with it "out of the box".
Maybe later when something new shows up.
Maybe Xperia UI. Are you listening xda experts?
My opinion.

I've got a New HTC Touch Pro 2 - What now?

Guy's,
I made the plunge, well, I didn't think i would get it, but won a htc off ebay! Should be delivered in 3 or so days, so long as the bloody postal strike doesn't hold it up!!!!!
Ok, What do I do now? Advice and suggestions would be welcomed.
It's going to be a standard out of the box handset. with WM 6.1 pro.
What mods/upgrading/software should I have? Should i use spb 3.5?
Can't wait to get my hands on it.
cheers.
Hi,
All your questions & mod tips are here, but you'll need to do some catch-up reading: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=479
Enjoy your new PPC!
First read the Wiki and then just spend a couple of weeks with it and exploring the TP II forum. We don't know how you will use your phone or what you expect from it so we can't recommend anything at this point. Only you know what you want the phone to do.
So educate yourself, determine what you want and then everyone here will be happy to help you get there
No probs, will do.
Expect loads of questions from me in the next few weeks.
It arrived today! I wasn't expecting it until maybe Thursday but what an awesome phone! Been playing around with it for most of the day.
Sorry guy's, I have to ask, what would you recommend I install as upgrades? What do you think I should mod it with?
I'm also going to do a bit of reading, but would love your thoughts.
Cheers.
I would first recommend upgrading to WM 6.5. Then install TouchFLO as a UI and install the Microsoft Marketplace. There are tons of apps there to customize your phone how you like! Also check out the programs here on XDA. Just look around and you will find things that fit your interests. For example, you may come across a tool that enables your phone to schedule text messages (handy if you want your girl to think you're so sweet by sending her a good morning message first thing in the morning lol works like a charm). Also, Google Maps is an excellent GPS program, but Windows Live Local has better turn by turn directions. I would recommend one or both of those.
^Very good recommendations above...WM6.5 is a must then you can customize from there...
Excellent, cheers guys.
More stuff like this please.
Also, I'm going to be using the phone for business. Is there a software program to read email better than the standard email view on the phone?
What business apps would you recommed?
I've also been advised to flash it with the latest HTC radio and NRG Photon Rom? Someone also said to use SPB 3.5?
Where do I get these programs from?
I think i've got touch flo on it, does this sound right TouchFLO 3D 2.1.38163.1?
bump anyone?

If you don´t like Manila 2.1 de select it and then you can install spb, personally I prefer touch flo than spb but that is matter of tastes.
Good luck,
Cheers for that.
Also, Is there another updated version of manilla and how do I tell which version I have? I've seen people have been talking about manila 2.5? What are your thoughts?

CHT switches question??

Hi.
Apologies if this has been asked before but I've searched for a specific answer to my problem and can't seem to find the exact answer I'm looking for.
I've had my HD2 for around 18 months and still love it, great phone. Last year I had CHT installed, one of the early versions. At some point it started to crash and cause problems etc. so I uninstalled it and forgot about it really. Anyway, I recently installed it again and after several installs and uninstalls I got version 1.7.1.2 to run with no problems. It just seems to be the most stable on my phone. I'm happy with that, it suits my needs fine. All I'm really interested in is the additional pages and quick links on the home page and the smaller clock which also displays my appointments, missed calls, weather, text etc. I'm obviously running the same version of editor side by side and I did have to update my .NET framework to 3.5 (I think).
However, there is one thing I'm missing, where has the switches gone that used to be on the original version I had. The little black and white ones for switching the Wi-Fi on, or rebooting the phone. I did find these very useful but either I'm doing something wrong or they're not on the version I have. Which seems a little strange as I'd have thought this would have been a step backwards. Or, do I have to install an additional file to have these as well? If so, could someone kindly point me to an idiots guide on how to get them please. I'm no techie but I can manage simple instructions, lol.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards.
Darren.
The first switches and notifications in CHT came with version 1.8.0. Look here for the changelog.
Aaaaahhh, now that I wasn't aware of.
Many thanks for answering my question, much appreciated.
Darren.
Hi Flatcap2010,
Just a recommendation, give a try to CHT 2.0.0 version, it works great on the HTC HD2. Also we get a good support on this one and there is some nice "crazy" guys that still developing new good stuff for it
Best regards and good look

Hi all....apologies for the late reply but I've been away working. Many thanks for your input, I'm now successfully running the latest version with no problems at all, runs brilliantly and no issues of the battery draining etc. It really does take this phone to a whole new level, absolutely fantastic!
I was due to upgrade just after Christmas but I doubt I will now. The HTC HD2 with this mod and a couple of others little tweeks still takes some beating in my eyes. It was streets ahead when it first came out and can still give a lot the newer phones a run for their money.
Thanks again to all concerned, very much appreciated.
