i have taken quite a break lately, glad to see the sms/mms account problem has been solved, hopefully the palm threaded app will work right!
this rom worked a lot better for me than the HTC roms. THanks helmi_c
Wierd
as im downloading this att rom my anti-virus ( avast) say's there is a trojan virus in it. is this normal?
i was using the first cook room...but i decided to jump being that i have the tilt. i must say...this sht is fast as all hell...didnt think it could be any faster than before. one thing though....the app that scans business cards. Is it possiable to have that in a cab? thats the one thing i miss from the old rom. other than, this one feels like a winner.

Can i install this on my unbranded Kaiser ?
Well, i know i CAN, but should i ?
I noticed the OS is newer than helmi's kaiser 0.7.0, so i would like this one, if there are no problems...
thanks mc. this is another solid room.
i got a bug. while in messaging (email or text) i cannot see the pictures of the people who send the message. i can see just a little bit of it, but most of it is showing off the screen. almost as if i was using an app made for vga on a non vga device. anyone else notice this?
edit:
okay so when this happens....slide the keyboard out...then close it...and the message returns to its normal format with the pic fully viewable. any thoughts?
whoa....i just pushed the mail button on the front the phone reset itself...hmmmm

Helmi,
Any chance of you making a Dynamic + BigStorage ROM out of this?
I could install all the AT&T cabs I need, but then I also don't want PTT or HTC Task Manager... Plus, from your HTC ROMs with the same build and kernel, the Dynamic ones seem to be the most stable and quickest to me.
Thanks in advance and for what you've done up to now anyway. Really apreciate the work you put into this. Donation will soon follow (and that's not a bribe).

didn't experience this, tried to re-create by:
-hitting the mail soft key after boot from initial flash
-power-down/power-up then press mail key once today screen loads
-hard reset
-after today screen loads from reboot hit mail key
-power down/power up and then hit mail key
everytime the messaging applet open......
maybe i'm doing something wrong.
rom runs great and possibly even fixed a past issue....
i have an at&t tilt that i purchased from an at&t coporate store on the day of the US release.
i hard-spl'd the day hard-spl was released to shed that god awfull thinguhmabob at&t had on this phone that was more like TnT on Tilt.
proceeded to flash the htc ship rom and somewhere inbetween a pixel died right above the "m" in smart mobility.
the pavarotti pixel was evident on every subsequent boot as well as opening any non-white variant background page/app.
since flashing this rom that that dead pixel is johnny alive.
i know this rom fixed the dead pixel because after flashing every kaiser rom/cooked-rom on xda the dead pixel remained, um, well dead.
the the at&t rom to me felt more like a caveman trying to use a stick, on a rock, to draw a buffalo with some headless stick people dancing around doing the caveman robot.
i have experienced no issues yet but as with most self-reports, this is subjective.
Edit (oct-19-2007 1:34p cst):
after some 12 hours of use, the phone (or screen input), has become unresponsive similar to the at&t rom. unresponsive meaning; i am on the today screen and click start-settings. the transition to the settings menu is quick but once i arrive to the settings menu the screen freezes (or rather any stylus inputs are delayed by 2-3 seconds if even received). to me it seems like the device is polling something like the sd card or ptt (only roms i've experienced this on have been with ptt) but my gut could be off as i'm late for lunch and my gut is hungry.
having said this, this rom, for me, is somewhat un-usable. i have hard re-setted 3x now in attempt to correct said lag but lag wins. in between the 1st and 2nd hr's i loaded up pocket + 4.0, resco explorer 6.16, resco registry, resco ftp. did a hard reset once the device started to lag with said software installed. currently i have no apps installed and still experience extremem lag on just cooked-stock-default settings/apps. going back to htc ship.
-ds
I'm anxious to install this on my Tilt -
A couple of questions -
1) Which dialpad is it using? The same as on the original AT&T ROM, or the Eten dialer that has been packaged with the other Kaiser ROMs?
2) Any guess if TomTom 6.032 will work with this one (assuming I already had it working on my Tilt with a Kaiser ROM)?
3) Safe to assume that, since this a Tilt package, there's no need to install the keyboard remapping hack (or manually configure data connections)?
Also - I haven't seen any chatter about this in a (short) while - Do you notice any improvement on this ROM (or any other for that matter) with the tinny/distant sound of bluetooth headsets?
Thanks so much for your hard work on this!!!!!!!!!!
AMG
is this rom running significantly faster than the htc 070 rom? i mean is it worth it to jump ship again, and install everything again? or people just want this rom for the storage
i very highly doubt a signifgant change in speed because there is no signifigant change in the rom....it's probably a user opinion kind of thing....only way to prove is benchmark...but most likely nothing worth spending 1 hr of software setup blah blah

What app to use for copy/paste text and automatic keylock?
Since Xbar’s copy/paste is not working I need an alternative.
I’have tried VitoCopyPaste but then maniac's Automatic Keylock is not working.
Do you have any alternatives for these programs?
I use an app called SmartToolKit. It has various functions - copy-paste and keylocking are just some of them. Try it out...

Its author says that copy/paste in wm6 will work in version 4, I've try it and it is not working, so I have to wait for version 4.
I've tried SmartToolKit but it is changing all menu and I find it little confusing.
Thanks for answers!
I really liked SmartToolKit but does it support S730 LANDSCAPE mode?
I installed it and as soon I open the keyboard the program goes crazy! What is that.
wait for windows mobile 6.1 , there will be copy&paste

hi there....probably u r using the latest version of Smart Toolkit. the rc09 version i mean. my advice is use rc08version. its quite stable and nice. u dont get the global skinning options though. otherwise its damn good. i frankly never use my phone without smart toolkit.....its got a hibernate and taskbar option too which are pretty handy.
and yes if u use rc08 it will work in s730 landscape mode
@torentonly
Bcoz I bought VOX two weeks ago...and really missed this feature...so i searched alot for this and finally got one.....Now em just sharing this with you all, hoping that you all will get benefit from this....now its up to them, whether they use crack for it or buy it!!!

Using cracked software is a calculated risk according to me. Since cyber laws are not very strict in many countries, people get away with it. However, when free alternatives are available, why not make full use of them.
Smarttoolkit is an awesome software. just play around with it for a day or two, and you will easily get the hang of it. Also, its inbuilt task manager, cut-paste,profile manager, plugin manager, windows like start menu, set it apart. Its almost like having a new OS. I'd personally recommend downloading rco8 since rc09 has some bugs. I don't know if they have fixed it or not.
For changing appearances, you get various softwares like chome configurator(which gives the sliding panel look), and various themes free of cost.
search this forum. I am sure you will find free and in almost all cases, better alternatives for your needs.
Cheers,
Akshay

Actually its a compatibility issue. some times the device hangs and have to reboot. I also used rc08 back then. and also it was reported by most chefs back then. But may be its conflicting with certain software.
BTW I think smart toolkit is dead. its nearly one year since RC09

i have to agree with u man. but i think the conflict is not with smart toolkit but with photocontacts pro. if im not mistaken, u too run it on ur vox right?
still the functionality with photocontacts pro is so great that i run it, despite my phone losing ram and/ or hanging once in 3 days!
i am running fireburned lite rom now. find that it drains battery quite significantly. how is the mona lisa rom compared to this in terms of stability and battery use? can u get back regarding this?

These are a few non-working apps I discovered when trying to customise my TD2 on day one.
1) HTC's gprs monitor refuses to install.
2) Core player exits on installation complaining about a "problem". - NOW FIXED
3) I already mentioned Tomtom6 on another thread.
Anyone found any others?

As I've seen coreplayer showing video on the Diamond2 in one of the reviews I'd say that something has gone wrong during your customisation.
Core player 1.3 work perfectly on my Diamond 2 !!!!
A problem has occurred with player.exe
Please tell Microsoft about this problem.
That's what happens when I run the program. It installs and appears in the program list but just won't run. I can't tell you what version it was either.
Maybe I should try a different version.
After a hard reset and direct install onto the device from a cab file I can now confirm that Coreplayer 1.3 does work very well on the D2. I have amended my original post. Thanks.

There is a new updated version of Co-Pilot specifically for the Diamond2, phone technical support on 0871 6412 540 (in the UK) and ask them for the download link, I did and my Co-Pilot is working ok.
If you try and load the D1 version you wont see many of the graphics on the screen, to get round this you can try using a non HTC old version and use the cab file from that, you should be able to find one floating around somewhere. The graphics are still not correct using the old generic cab but its usable.
Thanks for the reply and I did contact them and was given a link to the Diamond 2 program and it works ok.

Can you let me know what that version is? Im running 7.7.0.134 (full version with SD card etc, not Diamond version - which I think is the same but just comes without SD card and CoPilot Central PC app) but thats been the "latest" for nearly a year. Does this "new" version support the 480x800 resolution correctly.
It runs fine, just that the onscreen keys etc appear squashed.
Be grateful if you could let me know.
I just got the latest download v7.8.0.162 from them two days ago and was told by there sales person that the only thing that does not work is the TD2 Zoom Bar.
I have tested the program and it runs very smooth
How does this compare feature-wise to the TomTom mentioned in other threads for the TD2?
Co-Pilot
The version I am running is 7.8.0.162 Data NAVTEQ.EU 07Q3. v7.1.13.1.5, my understanding is that it has a higher screen resolution than the old Diamond 1 version, the menu system is a bit different. I think this version new will also run on the Touch HD.
I was told by Co-Pilot technical support that version 8 is on the horizon and will be out later this year.

In my opinion Co-Pilot is the better choice, for example you can specify the sort of road preferences you would normally drive on for each sort of road and enter the average speed you drive at to create a user profile that is normally quite accurate, there is a better zooming facility on Co P and I usually drive with the screen zoomed out so i can see all the small roads and villages around my route.

-----------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE TO THE UPDATE: OK I didn't cook it properly, which may explain why some apps, notably Office apps, would just quit. I just uploaded a version with no recmoding, and using Modules instead of Files -- so it should be more stable.
UPDATE: with ahmedfikry doing a fine job with the 235XX branch, I decided to stick with the 282XX series, so here's a new build of 28205, with the native kernel. Still includes include XDA_UC -- for info see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3611692
-----------------------------------------------------------
esperOS is meant to be a tight, no-frills lite ROM suitable for those using SPB Mobile Shell, or those who just want us much RAM as possible to install your own cabs.
It is also brand-free, there is no 'esperOS' in the startup screens. I want it to look like a stock HTC ROM.
Please refrain from asking for additions, unless you can make a case that it is essential for phone operation
As for the stuff that's there, let me know if you find a newer version that can be cooked in -- I tried to keep all the HTC goodies.
Please report bugs.

Thanks for the ROM. Exactly the kind I am looking for.
I flashed it, but noticed that selection in Contacts list takes a press of around 2 seconds. Same thing in all other lists.
But buttons in the bottom bar (Windows, OK, X etc.) react instantly. So do Start menu list and CHome screen items.
[Update: The problem in my case was TouchFLO scrolling was enabled. I don't know if I enabled it accidentally or if it is the ROM default. Fixed by disabling it using Advanced Configuration tool.]

Hi,
Happy new Year
Burtcom i try your new rom today, what about the sleep and death problem?
What is new on the new build 28205 ?
The long-press is for some screens is a "feature" for 6.5 -- I think they did this to facilitate finger-presses, but I agree it's too long.
To be honest, I use SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 with this ROM, so I use SPBs contacts, etc, which do not suffer this problem.
As for switching themes, I just did it and it worked fine. (though it took a few seconds)

Found a fix for my long press problem -- TouchFLO scrolling was enabled. Works normally after I disabled it. I am not sure if I enabled it or if it is the ROM default.
Switching themes works for me too. So no issues there for me. @lunicell should give it another try
Thanks a lot for a clean, HTC-like ROM.
Nice and Fast...
I was looking for a fast 6.5 ROM that I could use with Mobile Shell...this works great!!
The only part I cant get to work is the Themes color changes for the Icon Bar. It always stays black :-(

Fix to the Touch Response Problem
I love that the esperos ROMs are very light, but I just can't stand the touch responsiveness in the Microsoft programs (file explorer, etc.). I installed a Kaiser Drivers CAB from TPC's CAB Downloads and it helped a bit. You can try it out if you want.
For some odd reason after installing this ROM I get constant vibration if I receive a text. I even flashed the stock ROM before flashing this ROM. I'd like to run SPBMS on this ROM and install Cabs to my liking but first I'd like to get rid of the constant vibration. The only way I can get it to stop vibrating is by turning the phone off or doing a soft reset.

No problems here
I just flashed my wifes and mine with this ROM. In fact I reverted back to an official ATT ROM first, then flashed to this ROM. I am running radio 1.71.09.01 too w/o any issues.
I tested the incoming sms, and just a single vibration- as it was setup to do.
The only issue I have is with SPB Software and Themes. I cant get the icon Bar to ever change from Black
Great ROM!!
Running:
Radio: 1.71.09.01
ROM: esperOS 28205
SW: SPB Shell 3.5, SP Keyboard, Kaiser Drivers CAB from TPC's CAB Downloads
You were absolutely correct... wrong radio. I didn't realize that the pkg I was downloading to re-flash the stock ROM included a different radio with the ROM. I had the 1.7 radio before and when I flashed back to stock it went to a 1.2 radio. I should have checked that...
Just as a side note... I've had no sleep of death issues at all!
Discalimer: While this has worked for me and many others, it may not work for you so be careful and remember to always back up your data.
Well after much searching for instructions on how to install Swype and get it working without the various errors and crashing i have decided to write up this little tutorial... 'Why do we need a tutorial?' you ask. well since my first attempt at installing Swype i have gone thorugh 2 hard resets and a new Rom.
I have also found a 'fixed' cab, after attempting to use a cab rip from the tmous version and screwing over my phone.
Some of these swype cabs are a bit buggy and can cause temporary errors in your registry that screw-up anything that is encrypted, this includes saved passwords for applications and more importantly the windows unlock password.
This may not happen in your installation but it's better to be safe than sorry and can be enabled after we have finished installing.
So before we even begin installation navigate your way to Settings > Security > Phone lock and then untick the box that says 'Prompt if phone unused for...'
Download the fixed-Swype cab if you have not done so already, i have to say thanks to whoever it was that made this, and is available here on xda-forums.
Cab:
Fixed-Swype-HTCBlackBird-3.9.10.10.5032.CAB
(No i will not put the fileup for public download, just search for it).
connect your HD2 to your computer and copy the cab over to the device into which ever folder you like.
now pick-up your phone and using your prefered file explorer navigate to the directory you just placed the cab in and open it.
During install you MUST make sure that you select to install the software to your 'Device' and NOT to the storage card.
Once the installation is complete your phone will prompt for a restart, select cancel and return to your file explorer.
Now navigate to the internal memory and then to the Windows directory in here will be a new folder named Swype, select it and then from the menu select copy.
Now go up out of the Windows directory but remaining in the internal storage navigate to Program Files.
Inside the Program Files directory paste the Swype folder.
Now perform a soft reset and swype should now be succesfully installed, to test swype open a blank message or word document, when the standard keyboard opens, click the small arrow next to the keyboard icon on the menu bar and select Swype.
Enjoy.
Great write up. Must admit i had many problems installing the v3.9 and had to hard reset to fix it. Your last steps about cancelling the restart and copying the folder is what is different.
Must admit though, i just installed the v2.0 from the Omnia and found it typed faster (this is compared to when i did have v3.9 working). Also with 3.9 the number selection when holding down a certain key hardly ever worked, works all the time with 2.0 so i just stuck with that. With a skin it looks not bad either even though 3.9 does have the better appearance etc.
may it also work for my touch pro 2 ?
Thanks in advance
There is actually a new version of Swype floating around... installing it seems to be pretty easy. And the bugs of the version which is mentioned above are solved, too. Just google for "IME_Swype_3_19_20_20_6343_0.cab" and you will find it.

I did think about doing that but after seeing the screenshot was quite unimpressed, it just looks... unfinished...

I wouldn't like to say as i only have tried this on the HD2, but as long as you back-up and are prepared to re-enter all your passwords you could always try.

thanks for the info i may have to check it out if i get a chance.
There are actually 4 versions of swype floating around for use on the HD2.
The Omnia II version: works well but keys are small and just looks too plain.
The fixxed 3.9.10.10.5032 blackbird edition: Ripped from TMOUS. Much more pleasing to the eye. Long presses do not always work. (ex: holding for numbers). It changes your phone ID to T-Mobile_Leo. This it what locks you out of your phone if you have it passworded and causes you to hard reset. Disable password before installing. It also destroys settings for email and router pass keys. It also deletes passwords for installed applications like Resco and SPB. Also had to run through internet connection setup again. And who knows what else.
Another version of 3.9.10.10.5032 by LordYuz: This has been fixxed to not change your phone ID. Won't destroy your passwords or lock you out of your phone. Long presses still do not work well.
IME_Swype_3_19_20_20_6343_0: Also ripped from new TMOUS HD2. Again this version changes your phone ID and will cause damage as stated above. Not sure if long presses are fixxed with this version or not. Hoping LordYuz gets his hands on this version and fixxes it too.

I was of the same opinion but maybe its in my head but im sure it works better. It just seems to respond quicker, flow a bit better.
I also installed the Lessro skin, looks much better, better than the stock 3.9 in my opinion, dont even notice the keys appearing smaller and at the end of the day its a straight install, no special instructions required at all and the long key presses actually work so its practicality vs appearance..........i know what i prefer..............thats until of course they actually release a proper fully working 3.9 with all features working properly.

where can i get the omnia version? i want to switch because theres a problem with the swype i have, it would ask for double confirmation of one word even when nothing is checked to ask for confirmation.

Refer to my post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=684198&page=2 post #12
whilst v2.0 (omnia version) is floating around everywhere (google easily finds it), this is the newer released v3.9 by LordYuz which fixes the previous 3.9. works great. It is larger to install but go into the swype folder in the Windows directory, del the tutorial, its almost 10mb alone to save space
I used almost all of them including the fixed version ended up hard reseting twice,until I came across swype V.2 which I am enjoying it now a lot.
I have version 6343 with the Eleganicia ROM on WM 6.5.5 base. It works perfectly with long press, but the allignment is off due to the bigger taskbar. Any ideas on how to adjust it?

LordYuz updated his Swype version to the current TMOUS Swype rip.
Works perfect with all fixes and it doesnt change the model id of your phone

You probably used this version 3.9.10.10.5032.
Are you sure you tried the newest being Swype 3.19.20.20.6343.
Im using this no problem in terms of changing the phone ID, passwords etc and others have commented the same.
anyone has an ideea how to have romanian language?
So far, Swype is only 5 languages... to implement any other is not an easy job. Hopefully Swype will officially make an offer soon, with more languages. I think many people would buy it if the price is reasonable.

The omnia version does not lag when using htc messaging's conversation mode (with +50 message in a conversation). I installed the new stock ROM and this new swype version fixes the long press key problem, but it still lags pretty bad. My first question is, how do you check the swype version on the HD2? Secondly, does the newest swype version fix the lag problem?

Agreed, when i used to use the 2.0 (omnia version), it was simple and fast, just didnt look as good without a skin and the keys were a bit smaller.
Although in saying that, i have just flashed with a new aftermarket ROM which has the omnia swype already cooked in, v2.0 and it runs sweet.
Few days prior when i ran the latest swype i didnt have any lag on a stock 1.48 rom not sure why you got a lag problem. I also have hundreds of sms's but it worked good for me, i liked the new version as it just seemed built for our phones, larger keys, sound and vibration feedback, long key presses and even deleting words holding the backspace key down erased words etc. Overall very nice.
To check swype version, go to settings, personal, input and when you select swype, there is an about button top left. tells you there.
I have 4 questions...basically how to reset swype and how to guess which version is running.
QUESTIONS:
1.
how can I know which swype version i am running? from which menu? or settings or where?
2. How to install a dictionary, for example ITALIAN Dictionary? (I have the Italian cab, but installation does not work)
I have two HD. The old one HTC-HD2, NOT T-mobile (running an old 6.5.3 cooked rom) has a modified swype in which sometimes (50% of times) long pressing does NOT result in a number to be typed. But it has ITALIAN language.
My new HD2 t-mobile has probably a omnia version (smaller keys) and long press ALWAYS work. Unfortunately it only has only ENG and SPANISH dictionaries, NOT ITALIAN. I have tried to install Italian cab (following a thread here) but it is NOT recognized as a legitimate dictionary.
3.
How to reset swype? In fact after 3 or more months, the OLD HD2 has this problem: I have accidentally hit od and i3 and press space. these 2 mistyped words are now part of the ENGLISH dictionary, right? then what happens, every time i type OF I get OD (as default choice) and same for IF: I get i3...so I wish to reset the internal dictionary. How to do it?
4.
The NON-omnia swype, in the 3rd screen (click 123-SYM key 3 times), has an option "SELECT ALL", The Ommia-version of swype does NOT have this option. Is there a way to add in omnia-version of swype?
5.
The english dict has this word TYPO. Each time I swype TO the system ALWAYS enter TYPO...how to correct this behaviour? I wish to eliminate TYPO from dictionary. there are instructions on how to do. but these instructions do not work...
Thanks and waiting
Saulo
I have tried to turn back to defaults, under options, but no improvements...if someone knows how to reset to original settings, I would really appreciate...
Thanks
Saulo
