Memory after hard-reset..
based on: midget ROM
main memory:35.9MB
program memory:>27MB
Really, I always wanted to get productive instead of flashing my halley berry(my black universal) after every 1h or so. I was spending more time flashing and setting it up.
This ROM is actually for those people who want all the important utilities as a part of OS itself.
Some highlights of this ROM..
*no crap in "my documents": this includes all the useless pics, nonsense sounds Actually, before this ROM, whatever ROM I used to use, this was the first thing I used to do that is, delete all this crap. yay, this means no "dog bark" sound !!
*It should be clean and usable for business purposes: Clearly, we have invested so much(put more stress on "so much!") on our device. That is why, no crap
*Vista skin for WMP mobile:thanks to Xcillion. This really makes me say, WOW! Infact, this is now the default skin of the ROM. see the second screenshot
*TCPMP: yeah! It is a part of ROM now. So, you save ~1.5MB(yay!)
*no bubble-breaker
*Adobe reader pre-hacked to VGA mode.
See the difference in the first screenshot given below
*Playlist editor inbuilt to the ROM:find it in the "utilities" folder. Now, you can make/edit playlists on the go
*USB HDD:find it in the "utilities" folder
*Pocket RAR:
*no "one note mobile":see the third screenshot. This is no more(anyone used it anyway?)
*soft keys mapped to contacts and adobe reader. The left soft-key says "my contacts" and the right soft-key says "my PDFs". Sounds windows..isn't?
*some really nice and beautiful themes are built into the ROM. I m sure, everybody would like them. See the 4th, 5th and 6th screenshots.
*on the other hand, the ugly looking themes which used to be built into the ROM are gone now. Yeah no guavas and no green theme
*the default ringtone just got changed! The ringtone is soothing now. I extracted it when I had a chance to beta-test the "atom exec"(~1y ago from now). Its lovely. I m sure, all of you will like it. And don't worry, the default WM6 is still there. Just by some other name
*no htc plugin
*no pim backup:accept it! all of us have better backup tools(somebody said, spb backup?)
Just a little request after hard-reset: you gotta manually go to the file explorer>>windows>>start menu>>programs and delete the backup folder from there.
I m somehow unable to delete it
If someone can mirror it, it would be benificial for the community
THANKS TO..
Laurentius:thanks my friend

This ROM is based in Midgets, so it doesn´t have videocall.
I personally like the "Clean ROM" idea, having a customized extended ROM or my favorite apps cabs to install afterwards.
Beauty is a very discussible concept: p
seems like a nice release.
but why did you change the phone skin? the delete button still has its pink mask around it =\
and of course it would be unchangeable because its in the rom, so the images are read only.

Odd isn't. This pink portion should actually be inivisible. Actually, in photoshop, the pink(to be exact, magenta) is depicted by 255,0,255. This is not seen in WM5 ROMs. Mysteriously, this is still seen in WM6 ROMs
I ll try to come out with a path or something to overcome this. IMHO, it still looks way sexy than the O2 skin or tmobile skin, does not it?

its nice, but being unable to change it and fix the pink mask and having to live with it forever is kind of a big NO NO in rom making, IMHO of course.

a babe rom...
based on midget's....
i wanted to know....
there were some issues of Bluetooth handsfree usage with midget's roms. after a while... they do not acknowledge the commands given to the phone from the bluetooth handsfee unit. e.g. last dialed number, voice dial, hang up. etc.
is this all fixed?
Otherwise... the base rom is almost flawless.

Last dialed number: working
Hang up: working
voice dial: not installed(acutally no voice dialing app is there)
Actually, my BT handsfree is always connected with my universal, so I can confirm what is working and what is not

Nope!!
Appreciate your concern...
i'm on your rom at the moment. have been testing since released. the problem still persists.
you are right... it does work for a while but after that... it starts.
i'm using Motorola H350 Hands free. its command button (you know the one on the ear piece) is dead and not working now. but the status of being connected is still appearing on universal. To get it work, one has to re-pair it.
while in this button un-responsive status; if a call is dialed from the phone, its voice & mic are flawlessly routed to the bluetooth handsfree but the call cannot be put on hang up/mute/hold or any function that the button supports.
this does not happen in other ROMs like Jwrightmcp's, helmis, pdaviet, darkforce or default WM5.
Only Lt. Cmd Ivan's ELF ROM and Midgets all builds have this bug.
i think there is some problem with this Windows Mobile 6 Professions CE OS 5.2.1413 (Build 17913.0.3.0)
i might be wrong but all tests have been done and problem is detected.
my request is if we could get this bug fixed. the ROM would be a Mega Hit.
Its speed is great (seems like the device is overclocked)
stability is good.
more device memory
garbage date removed (dog bark, bubble breaker etc)\
* battery drains quicker but is affordable
looking forward...

Now, thats odd. My BT handsfree works fine. Are you sure that the problem is not with the handsfree?
I love the idea of a clean ROM with only the truly ubiquitous apps in it - the only problem is that nobody agrees on what those apps are.
I think I agree with pretty much everything you've chosen apart from the Adobe Reader over Pocket XPDF. However, I like your stance of functionality for business - I need my Exec to give me the functionality I require whilst approaching the reliability of a proper phone - recently, it's been a great PDA, and a shockingly bad phone. Hopefully, the latest release of ROMs will improve matters.
Cheers,
Steve.

flash the rom and post here if it works for you.
Loads fine and works good. Will test this out and let you know how it goes. Thank you for the release.
I just flashed this rom, it seems very nice. By that i mean, it is fast, doesn't take too much time to load things. Specialy my music library, every other rom i have tried took a little while to load my music library, But this rom did not take half as much time as the others.
One thing i would like to have changed or removed is the poweroff, and the reason i am asking for is because if you are listening to music and if you press the power button to save battery life it shuts down the music player.
Another beautifull thing i would like to mention about this rom is that if you are texting while listening to music, and decide to use the QWERTY keyboard it doesn't shut down the music player, which all the other roms i have tried had this issue.
One more to mention, is when i flashed this rom, it did not show me the screen for customization and everything was already customized and set for use, which would eventually reset the device which itself takes a lot of time.
So far thums up

Just flashed it.
Pros:
<1>The bluetooth device driver is working! Thanks!
<2>Very fast. After I installed the cabs I needed, the memory is about 18MB without Music and Photo tabs.
<3>Internet, email and weather works.
<4>The sound is clear and loud.
Since I am using Tmobile wing (sample of mismatch: @ is mismatched to =), I had to install the keyboard fix - AEKMap 1.3.

I will definitely search for the tweak, i clearly forgot to mention that i flashed a t-mobile wing.
But one problem i am having is the wifi connectivity, i do get a strong signal from my router but it actually doesn't connect.
I am also searching for network wizard cab, so i can check mms. If you have it handy can you post the link for it.
I found out that in the programs tab, if you click only once on a program link it opens it up. which all other roms i had tried had the problem of needing double clicking. So it definitely is another positive point.
this ROM works great. super fast and the bluetooth and wifi is working.. no bugs so far..

You can make it 12hr it by going to settings>system>regional settings>time> change style to the 1st or 2nd option.
I like the 24hr clock as it looks prettier on this theme.

It might be that the rom was not flashed properly.Try flashing the rom again.And the available program memory on this rom is 17-19mb.

As far as the wifi problem - It might be that there is a problem with the wifi gateway because it is working fine for other xda members.Try it with any other network and if it still does not work then post here.

Well, I have it but I don't have a server to host it.
On a side note you asked a question right before that thread was closed. You wanted to get rid of the Notification Bubble from an incoming SMS right?
HKEY_C_U>ControlPanel>Notifications>{A877D65B-etcetc (this is the entry for "Messaging: New Text Message") change the "Options" to 7.
The Icon will appear, it will vibrate and sound still.

I did not meant that you wont get these roms, you can download the roms from the link i gave.I will talk to microlab regarding this and he might again agree on posting his roms here on xda-developers,till then we can make a thread just for bugs and solutions.
And this is the link to the rom you wanted - http://www.mediafire.com/?mijzzrzn5jz
Please do ask Microlab if there is a fix for the Sounds and Notifications screen. It is severely garbled, and if I knew where to find the xml for it, would have given it a shot. Appreciate your help very much.

No Problem. I know you can keep changing that value. "6" vibrates, and shows the icon but doesnt ring, so on and so forth. I don't know what they all do or what the max value could be, I'm guessing somewhere between 10 and 15. you probably noticed already but thats also where you can changed what .WAV file is played for a new SMS.
I don't speak a lick of Vietnamese and I managed to register on that forum, verify registration, get myself logged in, and find the latest PDAVIET Herald release.
It's just plain ol' forum navigation. It's not that difficult. *shrug*
edit-
Someone stole the task manager from the one I'm using. haha
That actually works out better for me anyway. I prefer to use Schap's Advanced Task Manager.
edit2-
If anyone else is annoyed by the white bar that appears when you click on the start menu (or an item in the start menu) in some of the PDAVIET releases, this fix worked for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3127544&postcount=2757

I have the blue theme one that i believe is his (microlab) most current release and call me retarted but i cannot for the life of me get mms to work(on any of his roms). I downloaded the network wizard cab you posted and followed the steps and reset and still nothing. . .i can get internet to work fine which to me says that network config worked but no mms. Also on this rom threaded sms is messed up lol but if you go to advanced config and disable it the rom is otherwise sound!
Thanks again
Yeah I ran into that problem with the threaded SMS as well. I don't want to disable it so now I'm working on building some cab files so that I can stick his blue theme into a different build that has a working threaded SMS.

To translate the pdaviet page just click the button at the bottom of the page and select English(It should say Ting Vit)

Network wizard, then Aserg arcsoft, then t-mobile mms. Reset after each. Some times even if you do it it does not seem to work right away so just re-install them all again. This last build I had to do it 3 times on my friends phone before the MMS worked. Also make sure you change all the settings in the network wizard. Oh and I think it has a problem when install on the device or sd card, I think that was what finally got it to work this last time. Sorry I was a bit drunk.

Yeah, I was going to build a cab file containing all of the blue themed stuff (including phone canvas, random access, volume control, m2d, etcetera). If you know of one that has already been built, that would be even better.

love these ROM but too much networking issue for my wing
i have tried the latest 3 rom and have issue with "wifi, mms and bluetooth" that why i did post on it. and after reading forum for 1 month i left them alone.
Okay I've done alot to customize this phone and I love the end results. Just a few things bug me that I'm not sure there's a solution for. I've tried searching but didn't find anything helpful.
1. I installed Sprite Backup and even though the program works flawlessly, I've not only backed up data but restored as well, EVERY time I do a soft reset on my machine I get this error message saying something about SpriteStart.exe could not be opened. Yet I manually open it and it works. I tried their site and they say to reinstall. I've done that more than once, same issue.
2. On the screenshot attached, I really love this ROM/Theme/TF3D setup but I did all the tweaks to stop the internet push concept. I'd really like to remove any reference of it from this as well. Any ideas where in the registry I'd edit that or a CAB to do so that's already out there?
3. I also installed the inbox extender and I love it. I'm wondering if there's a way to set it into the menu in TF3D so I don't have to actually choose "Inbox" and go there to mark all messages read. It's an extra step that's kind of annoying for me.
I think that's all for now. Any help would be appreciated.

2. On the screenshot attached, I really love this ROM/Theme/TF3D setup but I did all the tweaks to stop the internet push concept. I'd really like to remove any reference of it from this as well. Any ideas where in the registry I'd edit that or a CAB to do so that's already out there?
3. I also installed the inbox extender and I love it. I'm wondering if there's a way to set it into the menu in TF3D so I don't have to actually choose "Inbox" and go there to mark all messages read. It's an extra step that's kind of annoying for me.
I think that's all for now. Any help would be appreciated.

Okay, let's see what we have here...
1. Sprite Backup still doesn't "officially" support WM 6.5. So, there might be some sort of inherint problem there at the moment (although I know of a lot of people that have it running fine on 6.5). If you're able to manually do a backup/restore fine, it sounds like you might have a scheduled or automatic backup set? If so, try disabling any scheduled backup and soft reset. Do you still get the error after that? Also, when you uninstalled it to reinstall, did you remove every instance of the program, then soft-reset, then reinstall?
2. Do you think your pages are still being pushed, or do you just want to get rid of the push page links on the internet tab within manila? If you like, and if you already disabled push internet, you can set up your push pages as just "favorites" and set the push frequency to "never".
3. This one has actually been asked many times before. Unfortunately no one has come up with a solution yet. It's not an issue where you can simply edit a manila file, rather it's buried in an .exe or .dll (to the best of my knowledge).
Let me know if any or all of that makes sense. Good luck!
May I ask what Dusk files you used? I'm also using MightyROM w/ my Verizon TP2, but I was constantly getting freezes and flashed back to just MightyROM.

It appears to be this one.
rotation
how do i get the screen to rotate horizontally without opening the keyboard?
thanks.
It is that one but with Spike's taskbar.
Thanks for the replies guys. I ended up flashing the Mighty ROM from scratch and reinstalling the theme leaving Sprite backup off. I'll just manually sync with my desktop.
The push issue, yeah I just wanted that to not show on the internet manilla. I guess I could create my 2 most used sites and set to never push on those. Thanks!!!
One other thing:
Since I'm on Verizon, I realize that my taskbar icon shows EV instead of 3G but I don't like it. If anyone has a workaround for changing it back, let me know.

Download and install Gyrator.

That network indicator is actually built into the custom taskbar you installed. If you'd prefer it showing 3G, you'll need to install a taskbar that has that instead. If I can find a good one, I'll post a link.
Regarding not using Sprite backup anymore, have you ever tried using Microsoft's My Phone, or there's also Dashwire, or PIM Backup too. All easy to use and all work great.
edit: Also, I believe it's tapres.192.dll that includes the network icons. So if you just want to change that icon, this is the file you'd need to replace/edit.
I actually have PIM Backup and use it all the time but just for my text messages. I guess I was wanting a full system backup so that when I screw it up playing in the registry like I did earlier today, I can just restore from backup and it be back to where it is right now... maybe I'm not being realistic.
And the icon is built into the taskbar? I didn't realize that. Does it matter what taskbar I use as long as it's meant for Manilla 2.1 and WM 6.5?

No, you're not being unrealistic at all. Check out My Phone or Dashwire. both can backup pictures, texts, contacts, etc. I personally use My Phone... good stuff.
If you have the taskbar you used, post it. I'm no artist (really, far from it), but I can see if I can tear apart the .dll and try to edit it. No promises that I'll succeed though.
You did want it to say 3G, right?
edit: Sorry, regarding the question about it mattering what taskbar you use. Since WM 6.1 and 6.5 have different taskbar layouts, they aren't compatible with each other. Manila versions won't matter.

Here's the taskbar. I grabbed it in the middle of one of the Dusk threads here but I can't find it now or I'd just point you to the post instead.
http://www.ppc-files.net/HTC%20Touch%20Pro/TF3D/TaskBar/
It's this one:
Spike's_ MicNeo_TaskBar_Varient_3_v2_MIGHTYMIKE_CDMA_FIX.cab
and Yes I love everything about it except that it shows EV instead of the 3G icon. I live in the stix and waited forever to sit at my house and see that little 3G on my phone so I realize it's silly but I still want it if possible. Thank you so much!

Haha, that is a funny (just a little). Seeing EV isn't quite as satisfying as seeing 3G when you're on the "BIGGEST 3G NETWORK" in the country!!!
Anyhow, after a little doing, this is what I came up with. Just install it (don't uninstall your current taskbar, this just adds to it) and then soft-reset. If it doesn't work for you, let me know.
Enjoy your 3G coverage... errr... icon.

Just installed it and it worked. The 3G icon should be in red correct? Thank you so much!
Yep, like "Big Red" (Verizon). You're welcome!

I actually use and have used SPB Backup for quite some time--and it can and does all that, and then some. All though Sprite and even MyPhone are great, I have come to rely on spb backup.
You can do full or custom backups AND restores of PIM, Emails, Documents, System Data and Storage Cards. There's also a handy little sync tool so you can keep your backup .cab's auto-magically suncconfused to your desktop(or laptop). You can also restore in three different modes: New Device, New ROM, OR standard. And there's also a backup scheduler.
However, it's not free ($24, and sometimes they offer a promo code around the holidays), and as I write this I'm also on MightyROM(11.16.09) with what seems like two files from the windows library that have problems backing up--but the backups do fully restore, and I've yet to have any issues because those two files won't release during backup. Caveat Emptor.
Hey
I have just upgraded my hd2 to the newest 1.66 official rom the other day. it was primaraly to sort out the sms' not sending bug, which seems to be fixed now! yay!
However.. Now i am experiencing a new bug! Now when i type sms the writing is so slow that after i pressed space and begin to write a new word, the letters get on the screen before the phone has made the space, so everything is in one long word Hope you understand.
Generally what i am saying is that, after the new update i experience poor performance when writing sms. Am i the only one ?
I have the same "problem", but not all the time...
If I do a softreset, it types smoothly again.
But after some time, it get's slow as before the softreset.
I haven't noticed the sms yet - but I have noticed 1.66 makes scrolling through music a lot slower....
Thats true, after some time typing goes extremely slow and nees soft reset.
If you have only 40-50 sms surely wont happen.But thats not a solution!
If you want you can try to install the last SMS Hotfix (8007_07).
The original exe will not install, but i posted a cab in the "SMS Problem" thread...
This cab will install the latest Messaging Client 1.5 2011.3631.
Everbody claim it is integrated in Rom 1.66, but Messaging Client in 1.66 is 1.5 2011.1932 ...

Could you possibly post your results after trying this out?
The last sms hotfix I installed caused the font in my inbox to become too big to fit on the screen. One more hard reset and re-installation/tweak-a-thon and I think I might lose it!
