Hi,
I am about to purchase an AT&T Tilt and I would really like to learn how to modify this thing. I've been surfing the forums and there all these these different types of ROMs and all of that. I have a basic understanding but I just had a few questions:
1) Anyone have a generally recommended ROM? Dutty's looks like to be a popular one so far.
2) What does "radio-only" and radio in general mean in the context of the Tilt?
3) Can I Sync this thing with a Mac?
Thanks a ton for the help!
Noob myself but here is your answeres i am sure someone will correct me if i am wrong!
1. There is too many to choose from, currently i am sticking to official roms
2. Radio roms are like radio drivers and you should use the one recommended for the rom you are going to choose.
3. Of course (software required)
Dutty version 6
Me a WM noob too!
Be sure to keep a backup of your official ROM in case you want to go back to it. Use Sprite Backup that's available on the HTC CD.
There are far too many ROMs floating around. Schaps is unable to provide much support, I gather. I'm still learning myself about the others.
I have used Dutty's Full version 6, it is extremely stable and lightning fast. v 7 has too many issues, and I had to go back to v6 after installing v7 on my TyTn II, but I'm sure Dutty the Master will turn v7 into as fine a ROM as v76 in due time. Till then, I would stick to v6.
The radio essentially refers to the phone hardware drivers on the unit that handles all calling, including video and wireless, but not the software diallers.

Schaps might not be able to provide too much support - but his roms are very good. I've been using them since his first Hermes Rom. Besides, his threads are usually very active and others provide the support when he isn't able to (as with all roms).
The radio is basically the part that allows your phone to talk to the cellular network. A "radio only" rom includes only the radio upgrade and does not include any operating system. This is good if you want to upgrade the radio without having to completely re-install applications, settings etc on the phone. BUT if anything fails when flashing a radio it is easy to brick your phone. For this reason you should install hardSPL (in my signature) which will allow you to recover your phone if anything else goes wrong.
Wow thanks! Someone mentioned software dialers. What is that exactly? I'm assuming its just a front-end for dialing numbers on the phone like how they look and stuff. Am I correct?

Hey MichyPrima,
Just logged in after work and will download all the offerings tonight. I don't know if I will have time to give full feedback tonight but our cup at the 7510 forum has never been so full.
Thanks a bunch.
Report after install
I just install full 6.5 ROM.
There're some problem I found as following.
1. some setting items is not response(Power, Organize StartMenu, Backlight, Device Info, Gsensor, Keyboard layout, Languages switch, Microphone AGC, Keylock, TV out, Task Manager, VueFLO, SMS Mode)
2. sound and notification is not close after setting
3. Comm Manager doesn't go back after press back button
I will come back to report more.
as if it is WM 6.5 beta a problems is Normal Like all Roms
To me it is seems Like i Should Sell my X7510 After trying Almost all kind of Roms So i realised That it was a Bad Ever phone i Baught and Shame on HTC They not Provide Any Stable And fast Rom anf what a ATI VGA laggy you thought the 624Mhz CPU Maybe it Should be fast Enaugh at least as HD one my previews Phone, i am very disapointed and now i am stocked with Cooked Rom i cannot go back even to the official WM6.1 Rom Sorry Guys but this is the truth, Big Thanks To MichyPrima For his Great Effort.
Hi there. Thanks for providing these ROMs, it's great to have skilled folk who know what they're doing out there . Can you tell me what the 'full' ROM has that the 'light' one is missing?
Also (and I am searching the forum for this) can someone point me to an idiots guide to flashing the X7510, I've done my Universal a few times but I'm not sure about this Hard SPL thing...what is it?
Thanks all.
feedback for boht 6.5 ROMs
I try both light and full version.
Light ROM is faster. But both will hang after play for awhile.
There're many icon in setting not work.
Next I will try 6.1 ROM
MichyPrima thank for your first cook ROM for X7510
It's good start for 6.5 ROM
Thank you, Michy!
Been waiting for this. Installed on my 7510. Bugs are same as in poltep's post. So rom is not really usable but when it does work it is incredibly fast! Media player on the home screen is great w/ album art support and highly accelerated add to library feature. The whole OS seems so much faster than 6.1 and I prefer it if you could work out the bugs. Resco file explorer will not install nor will some other programs I tried. Please keep working on this as I'm sure all of us will donate generously when it is stable. And thanks again for your hard work! Is there a Wm6.5 media player upgrade or is it still the old 10.3 media player that is contained in your 6.5 rom?
Hi Michy,
Thank you for your fantastic efforts here. I am liking very much the 6.5 interface and am moving my other devices over to it. I have to echo the comments that have gone before, however. Many of the icons under settings do not respond so until that can be addressed the two 6.5 ROMs are somewhat problematic. The Chinese ROM that appeared on the forum appears not to have those problems ..... but of course its in Chinese. Alexeym is helping us with a WWE translation for that ROM so maybe that will help you go forward with your 6.5 development also?
Major install problems with 3rd party apps
Hi Michy,
Have been playing some more with the lite version of the 6.5 rom. Though unusable for issues raised in previous posts, I love the speed and usuability of media player, file explorer, etc. The biggest issue however is the inability to install programs. Total commander will install as will advanced config but Resco explorer, skype, tom tom, opera and other important progs will simply give an "install unsucessfull" error. I don't see this issue in posts about other 6.5 roms. Is there a registry fix that can enable these progs to install? I have disabled security warning and this didn't help. Thanks again for all your hard work.

Thank you!!! + feedback
Thank you Michy, The 6.5 inteface makes the advantage even better in my opinion... A lot has been captured already in the posts, but just wanted to help with my feedback... I have yet to see it (FUll version) hang on me and I was successfull installing a GPS application but unsuccessful installing iGuidance. Plese let me know if there is a work around. I'm downloading the light version as we speak and if there is any change with that version I'll let you know, otherwise assume I had the same issues.
Cheers!!!
Hi Michy
Hey Michelle first of all your 6.5 ROM runs great smooth and fast on my X7510, way much better then the stock HTC ROM.
As told above indeed under settings, the back light & power shortcut/function do not work. I also noticed that every time i enter the start menu the icons change. For example the settings icon changes each time into the icon of one of the icons of the other apz in the ROM.
Also in the home screen the compose function for sms mail etc does not work.
The advanced con fig tool does not work also but can be installed and then works. Installing Tom Tom 7 is impossible ? How to solve this.
I have reverted to your 6.1 rom. And must say I'm very impressed by it. Tho still waiting for your 6.5 to be as perfect as can be.
Greetz Ché yes named after the cuevara Che
Any new development
Hi Michy,
Your roms really set the standard and I'm waiting for the WM6.5 one to have the discussed bugs fixed so I can upgrade.
Not wanting to put you under any pressure as you already do so much for the community, but are you continuing to play with WM6.5 for the x7150? In your signature, I cant help but notice that you run WM6.1 on your own Athena and its been a while since this thread has been updated.
Have you abandoned the project? I'll move across to your 6.1 rom if thats the case
Thanks for all your work as always!
Thanks for the rom !!
is there a way to get 96 DPI settings? i have tried to install realvga96dpi without any luck.
am I doing something wrong?
Regards
Thank you
I was trying to throw my X7510...now i got windows 6.5 ..thanks for adding..
i will install it later.
Fantastic work, but can i ask you a request?
Can you convert a ROM from wwe to italian lang?
i try to make a my rom, but i failed, and when i use your "switch language", it work, but at the automatic soft reset, the phone is block on the primary screen (the bios screen...)
can you help me, or tell me the instructions for change the lang to italian?
thanks a lot.
(i'm an italian user, and i know basic english language, if you tell me in italian, with PM if you want, i prefer...)
Hello!
I am using the Kaiser for some time, but I wasn't aware of what's going on here on the forum.
My last ROM was HyperDragon. Now I see that I cannot download it anymore, so I decided to find another ROM which would work well, and do what I need.
I tried a few ROMs, but all of them had some problems. For example, I liked Solace v3.1, but it had problems with changing the volume, and other strange things. I tried Athine, but the Manilla Edition was very slow, in the Lite version I had problems to connect to Wifi...
So I am looking for an advice - Can you suggest me a cooked ROM which would have Manilla 2D (that works fast), Camera would work good, Wifi would work good, iGO 8 would work, and it would not have strange issues like controlling the volume level...
And if HyperDragon Roms are not dead, can anyone tell me where I can find it?
Thanks in advance!

Hi sir,
PdaCorner has a sweet manilla rom, also allot of the other chefs, Anryl has one also, Tpc has a sweet m2d build, I have one HERE if you want to try.
Please do not open threads without searching.
Closing thread
Peace,
Joshua
Mbarvian's Solace ROM. The best in town. Very smooth M2D. Google for Sakajati for the Hyperdragon ROM's.
Hey Guys,
I know that this has been discussed a hundred times .
But let me at first explain:
This goes out to all you chefs which are cooking the roms (I'm not capable to cook one by myself)
So what I would like to have is a Kaiser ROM with a working Touchflo3d.
I've read and searched for hours and hours and found the rom from L26, but I think this had been an really early state. Now the drivers have changed and improved.
So is there anyone out there who is able to cook a rom (no matter if 6.1 or 6.5) with working TF3D and drivers?
I found out that there is a working version in this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=465507
But it was not working with my rom (M-Opal 1.0) due to cooked M2D.
So it would give hmm a bounty of 35€ (€ not dollars) if anyone would prepare a working, fast rom with TF3D.
And I am also sure that there will be a lot of other useres who would love it.
Best regards,
Matthias

there are already tf3d roms and if your looking for one that will work flawlessly on our kaisers, not gonna happen.
Leo (L26) made a decent rom L26_KaiserTouch_V4_M3D that actually encompasses TF3d. I have not tried the others but I do love his rom even though it is not as smooth.
I wonder how it will work with 6.5 drivers. I'm going to take a shot at cooking it into josh's rom for you. We'll see how this goes.
Why should there be no interest in TF3D on a Kaiser? (@denco)
Because I've seen a lot of videos on Youtube where it is running smooth and it also seems nearly bugless.
Like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPf_gjMFBHs
or these one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDduRgWFweM&feature=related
What I want to fullfil my bounty should be:
1. Running TF3D
2. OpenGl-Drivers integrated in ROM (I think it is necessary to use TF3D)
3. The Standby bugfix should be integrated, which is located under the link in my first post.
4. Look and Feel like on the Videos (not any kind of "Tiger" or strange "Tribal" as system theme)
Optional but highly welcome: German Language
Or is it possible to install some kind of language pack? (I'm using WM since hmm 6 or 7 years but I've never seen such a thing)
I've tried the L26 ROM and it was not satifying to me because the speed was really low compared to the TF3D's on the youtube videos and it seemed very buggy.
If I'm not completely wrong, the version of TF3D from my first post is in an advanced state compared with the on from L26.
Thanks in Advance!
Would be nice to find some people who will help to increase the bounty!

Yes it can run smoothely'ish the problem encountered is lack of driver to be able to sleep device in the correct manor.
But there is a patch to solve that kind of problem or am I wrong?
Q: Whenever I try and put the device into sleep mode, it powers off instead?
A: Try disabling the today time-out. Also, make sure you installed the standby CAB right.

No there are work arounds but no real fix
Im still TF3D fan, but after many bug and slow on my Kaiser, i have to move on.. if somebody create or develop ROM with it, i will give a try..
With that standby fix Touchflo3d is disabled automatically before sleep mode. Biggest problem for me was that when the device wakes up it needs to launch touchflo again and that process was kinda slow. Sometimes it just get stuck and needed softreset.
Still, I would be curious to see how smooth tf3d would be cooked in with newest builds and drivers...Also, if I remember right 3d drivers won't work if you have super ram hack in your rom.
Whatever ;-) ...

I don't mind if there is a super-ram-hack or what else, in my opinion it should WORK
Also I think that all of you shall take a look in your money-bag if there is a possibility to make it a little more lucrative to work on such a rom.
As I also stated out that I will pay my full bounty only if it is able to run on latetest state of development - that means not that the chef has to develop touchflo3d once again but without bugs ;-) it means only that it should be able to run as good as possible at the moment.
But as I read yesterday evening, I saw that there are maybe two possibilities to get rid of the standby bug, but - forgive me - if did not looked detailed at these solutions - so I don't know how these work but maybe one of them is working better?
And when I'm right - all the roms with TF3D cooked in are with an earlier driver-version. The younger versions of the driver have improved, if I understood the development news made in the dev. and hack. section.
The TF3D-cooked-in-rom-threads are nearly all dated arround december '08 - and I read a lot of them

I am not saying that if you posted a working TF3d rom that no one would flash it, I would. But what is the effort /reward ?
What about it would make it better than my M2D rom ? Or anyone's 6.5 rom.
Enough great chefs put more than enough time into it, and could not get adequate drivers to make it smooth enough to keep as an everyday rom nor could they get by the stand by problem.
TF3D is M2D with some nice 3D touches that is all, am I missing something ? Is it head and shoulders above M2D or Neo Titanium, I don't think so. Which is why no one really cares to put in all the effort to make it work , nor is anyone really willing to spend any funds to make it work.
I am not being a contrarian or a nay sayer just for arguement sake, really With M$ coming out with cHome and Titanium, SPB out with MS 3, HTC coming out with Sense, there is a reason why people took porting TF3D as far as they could and then lost interest.
O.K. 0,5 Points for you
But I think that Sense is only for Andoid? Correct me if I'm doing wrong...
My problem is, that my Kaiser (and i think all others too) have not such a good touch screen accuracy... mine is terrible.
(yes, I cleaned out the frame and the edges...but on my bosses Kaiser the screen accuracy is also bad! - Compared to my - slow but accurate - P4350).
In my opinion the touchflo concept is one of the best solutions ever developed. But for me in person TF3D would be a nice looking (and little improved) upgrade. I'm already using M2D and I like it, but what I also like very much is for example the animated weather and the improved look and feel.
I have also tried 6.5 but with the terrible accuracy of my screen it is not so funny to use.. also it is not running such smooth as M2D and I in person think titanium is not everyones favourite choice. What i also do not like is the Honeycomb-Style... looks nice, but thats all.. O.k. the kinetic scrolling is good and thats one thing I like . But thats the only improvement I could see at WM6.5.
So whats your opinion: Is a rom with newest drivers and so on not for everydays use capable due to a lot of buggy functions? (I dont't know - I never used one ).
If I remember right, all the legendary cooks have tired TF3D and it doesnt work as it is supposed in Kaiser. Kaiser is just not made for TF3D. TF3D is more resource hungry, and our device just cant handle it.
I do believe there is a cab for TF3D available! Take a good lite 6.5 ROM with memory hack, and load it with TF3D, you will see if it will be able to handle it or not.
I had it working kinda decent with 6.5...just kept throwing drivers at it until i found a decent setup. But i was just wanting to see how it would be like you. When i get home i will look if i still have the file and send it to you. I cant even remember what all i had with it though lol. But like everyone has said its still slow with the newest drivers and such.
I cant find the file....but i will work on it this weekend.
Here is one that I had downloaded when the TF3D thread was alive. This does not have standby in it. So if you want to turn off your phone, then you need to find a stanby fix by somebody!
Hmm in my first post is another source for the TF3D, which has bigger files - there you'll find also the Audio Manager etc.
Has this thread died ?
