I am downloading it now and will post what I find...
Looks like Sense 2.5
The image in the download shows Windows mobile 21889.5.0.87
AND
Manila 2.5.20121324.1
Sense 2.5, No 6.5.3, no Footprints
Just loaded the ROM, a little glitchy (veeerrry slow) on the bootup (i.e. calibration screen)
Confirmed:
Sense 2.5, no WM6.5.3 , no Footprints tab.
I'll post more if I see anything else
Sprint Touch Pro 2 Update is AMAZING!!!!
I just flashed the new ROM on my Sprint Touch Pro 2. It takes a little bit time to boot up but it's amazing!!!
Confirm:
-Sense 2.5
-WM 6.5 (not 6.5.3)
-No Footprints tab
-No enhanced landscape mode for Music and Photos (it does have full landscape support of course, just not the nice 'jukebox' look I have seen on some ROMs
No HTC Task Manager??? No longer in the upper right corner is the little triangle that brings the list of currently running apps.
Just loaded the new ROM and so far everything is very smooth.
Lots of extra's come preinstalled, the chef's will fix that

Anyone know of anyone hosting this rom/image yet. I'm only getting 18kb/sec from HTC's website and i'm too impatient to wait 2 and a half hours.
yea +1 for a mirror please. Im dying over here I was at 98 percent and got an error. now a 5 hour wait.
Fast Mirror for the Image.
http://leetfx.com/HTC Touch PRO2 MR1.exe
I just downloaded it from there and flashed my device. I am still in the Orange Screen ( now about 10 minutes.)
credit the fast link to Nanoware:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=114747&page=9
OK! I reset the device by removing the battery after a 25 minute wait on the Orange screen and now the device is functioning well...
Thank you ronin for Fast Mirror
Direct from HTC website is currently approximating ETA of 8 hours 41 minutes. Sheesh!
Thanks to ronin and Nanoware the mirror says 45 minutes remaining!
Much appreciated!!!

if anyone wants the "traditional" task manager aka HTC Taskmanager, Here is the cab....It works perfectly, i uninstalled it because i didn't like to see that after a while my memory is constantly at 80% with nothing opened. the phone is still responsive but i guess psychologically it makes me want to reboot! or clean ram.
So out of sight out of mind, which is probably why HTC left it out.
Of course they forgot to keep the 2016 fix in the new ROM as far as fixing the old messages that came in as 2016. So once you sync with MyPhone all the old 2016 timestamped SMS messages return. And of course they locked their 2016 SMS hotfix to only install on the old ROM.
Luckily as far as new SMS messages go, it works fine. So, not a big deal considering they are 2½ month old messages. It's just an annoyance considering they took 6 months to give us the update.

What is the Radio version?
Was it kept the same? Or updated?
Thanks.
Thanks for the mirror link. I started this at 10 AM and was only half way done at 2:30 PM
Huh, guess I got lucky - saw it last night on Pocketnow and hit up the HTC link.
Had the file in 18 seconds.
I like the eye-candy - going to drop my TP2 as soon as my corporate IT picks up the HD2, which unfortunately takes a few weeks.
But this will tide me over nicely till then.
Mirror Savior!
I was bout ready to cry when I found this mirror Finally! Two attempts and failure at 80% when the server reset on me...terrible.
This really is great news. I'm hoping now someone can get me the working Sprint Picturemail app...
Just some FYI for those having problems flashing. These are my experiences.
1. Make sure you don't have a ROM image file on the root of your SD card. Flash installer will give disconnected error and phone will continue to flash, but with the ROM image file from your SD card.
2. Also, look out for it windows installing the HTC USB drivers. You will get the disconnected error again and phone will stick on the rainbow page with SPL info. Just wait for drivers to install, soft reset your phone and try again.

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

Hello everyone, It is time for me to finally make a contribution to this forum.
This is my first rom, and I have been working on it for way too many hours making sure that everything I use works. However I don't use everything and just haven't had time to make sure.
This is where I hope you will point out my mistakes so that I can fix them.
Notes:
CE OS shows 318 build because I used that nb0 (I couldn't find a bigger one)
Memory at startup is about 27-29mb free (with voice command enabled by default)
Also the storage memory, I synced my contacts and took some screenshots (informative ones) which is why it shows that number. You should get about 45mb before you sync 198contacts/caller id pictures, and not to mention about a dozen .bmp screenshots
The screenshots are edited obviously, to fit all of the icons

By the way, I'm thinking of adding fring and replace the explorer with the one duty made.
What I will not add for sure because it can run standalone off of a card is :
TaskManager2.9; PocketXpdf; Google Maps 2 (they actually update); TCPMP; ClearTemp;Backup SMS.
reserved as well just in case (for fixes and files)
Will try it out, Thanks for your work.
Thanks S.V.I.
Downloading now, will flash later today and post accordingly
Have a good one
Nice Job, The only bug so far is that it took 6 soft resets to get it to recognize the Data AT&T Network.
1)Hangs a bit when adding an appointment, Newer Build does not happen
So at this time 29 people downloaded. I hope to get more feedback but I don't expect it from anyone until about 24hours with this rom.
Pumpiron579: could it have been a bad flash? or perhaps a corrupted archive?
I don't have that issue at all I set up network wizard, let it reset and it works immediately. strange that you had to reset so much. I hope that everything works now?
Thanx for downloading and trying
I don't know why that happened. That was a first for me. See if anybody else has that specific problem. If not, it was just something with my flash ?? Everything works great know. Been using it for 5 hours.
I needed three soft resets to get the phone to start up, froze on splash screen - after three resets, its all good........
Will update this post as soon as I use it a bit more

So far, so good - battery is at 100% fully charged, will use for a bit and update some more.
I did not hard reset after flash, so that may have been my issue.
Nice rom so far - will continue to update
3 soft resets? strange. I will upload a different upgrade utility. se if that is solved. Mine does not do that. I did a hard reset after flashing without my sd card.
It may just be that the thing may have become corrupted when uploading/downloading/compressing. I will compress it less next time.
Working on fixes for things that I have experienced. will probably upload again tomorrow late night. I really need more feedback other than that issue.
How is the battery? Is the pBar working for you? camera, mms, Live office? everything good?

yes, Grinminded guided me in a couple of areas.
I plan to get rid of live and replace it with fring (all in one instant messenger with skype capabilities) I have used it before and have to say that it works, but has a flaw: while a message is coming through, it freezes, so you can't type anymore. the result may be a garbled instant message if you are not carefull. You guys think it is a good idea or not?
also, i need to get rid of menu animation in the registry to make it work a little bit faster (you can fix that in the reg your self for now, before I upload. sorry for the wait.)
I'm also about to add some battery fixes so you may have to wait for that as well.
I have to catch up with a lot of work at the moment. if you have suggestions, please post them. I will work on it as soon as I can.
happy flashing
Hey SVI,
I've read a number of your posts in a few threads and must say I'm really looking forward to trying this. I think our ROM flavors are very similar. I've DLed your ROM, but haven't had a chance to install it yet, since I'm on the road right now. As far as replacing Live w/ Fring, I'm kind of the mindset that Live tends to be a little more 'universal' right now and working pretty flawlessly. Fring can always be added by cab. Just my 2 cents. Thanks very much for all your hard work.

I would keep live messenger. 2 reasons I love this rom, 1) messenger, 2) M$ VC. when a rom does not have them cooked in, it takes up a lot of room installing them into the main memory. I use my messenger a lot.

I was working on this rom last night and decided to try out the "Live" and beat the $#!* out of it. The oem package that I have, is not very rock solid. I took the package out, and the performance improved. It runs in the background weather you like it or not. A far as messenger is concerned, I'm not sure yet. MS is letting people download Live Mobile in standard and pro. maybe they have updated and fixed some issues. I have also been working on the graphics for this monster (it's big) so not everything is black and white; originally I turned everything Grey to save space. I added some Reg tweaks having to deal with caches. the result is loss of ram (about 2mb). Will keep you posted, and probably update another version tomorrow.

you will lose all of the data that is stored on the phone itself, what is stored on the memory card will not be erased.
As for the programs you will have to reinstall them and co pilot remember to deactivate this etc before upgrading all in the page when you download the rom from o2.
Also it is a rom update, from 6.0 to 6.1, the improvements are minimal apart from the speed improvements which should make it worth it for you to do if you want to spend the time reconfiguring it that is.
Hope that helps
You should NOT upgrade.
I did, and now I have only problems which I didn't have while on 6.0. You can find my posts in this forum.
On the other hand, if you have problems now, try upgrading.
But upgrade was, IMHO, my worst mistake.
yeh but the difference is that your upgrade is the htc leaked rom that appeared on here??? htc still havent realeased the full 6.1 upgrade for the polaris, if they have then it slipped by me.
The one the person is talking about is the o2 6.1 upgrade which i have been running for the last month and had no problems...yet but thats the same with anything it can always happen.

There are a couple of advantages to updating. You can easily google or wikipedia for details on how WM6.1 has changed. What's not mentioned is the compatibility you get with the newer HTC software. What I did was install the new rom, delete Opera 8.65, and install the Opera 9.5, the new HTC Album, new HTC Audio Manager, and new HTC Youtube app. Its like I have a new phone! But w/o many of the instabilities and bugs that cooked ROMS offer. Furthermore, it definitely cured my Xperia upgrade desires.
Worth noting is that yes, you will lose all information on the phone. So either move stuff to your storage card, or back it up on the PC. (Both of which you should be doing anyhow). Old text messages, and call history can be backed-up and recovered using the Sprite Backup that was included on your original CDs. In fact, I highly suggest making a complete backup using Sprite so that you can easily revert to your old ROM and restore your previous files/settings w/o any hassle if you have any issues with WM6.1.
Known Bugs for the official WM6.1:
-Touch scrolling doesn't work well in the Programs Folder accessed from HTC Home
-The music tab in HTC Home cannot be enabled by registry edits
Solution:
-Use either the Start Menu Programs folder or replace the Programs Folder with something like TouchLaunch
-Either don't use the Music Tab a la original configuration or install the latest copy of HTC Home by Schen w/o the brightness fix
I wish I had never upgraded to WM 6.1, with WM 6.0 my Orbit 2 worked perfectly well, never froze and Bluetooth worked with my Parrot hands free even to the point that the CoPilot voice came out of the speakers. Since upgrading I have experienced a number of freezes, the Bluetooth connects when it wants to and even when connected half the time it will not transfer a call, sometimes placing a call 5 minutes after it was dialled. I have been looking for an official O2 WM 6.0 ROM to downgrade to see if that cures the problems because I cant see any improvement in speed and most of the other "features" of 6.1 are of no real use, the threaded SMS being one I find most annoying.
@ chris10230
My signature says "Official" WWE ROM. Yea, from HTC site, when it went public! So no beta or leaked. You must have missed us yelling "New ROM is out". But that's no big deal.
@ Mace
Downgrading to WWE 6.0 did not solve same problems as your's that I (still) have. So I think we're stuck. Hopefully something will go seriously wrong with my Polaris, so I'll replace it while still under guarantee...
@ both of you, find more here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=411883. Please read posts from page 13... posts prior to that are just guessing or talking about problems with download/validation of device serial number...

I had upgraded to 6.1 official and also various cooked. but nothing beats 6.0 - I have 62MB free memory even after installing all my required prog's have even got SPB shell and Greatbal's manila theme - best of all world's
Am now on Panosha's Butterfly and enjoying the peace, tranquility
6.1 - give's you memory leak's, battery drain and most important eats most of the available memory due to all the new features like M2D, M3d, 3d Drivers etc...
Now if only I could figure out if Manila is installable on v6 then I have everything I need !
Hi ladies and gentlemen
Most importantly, does anyone have new ROM to recommend? cooked or stock, whatever as long as stable, i.e. it could pick-up incoming call without HANGING.
BTW, is this P552w codename "Galaxy Mini2". Found allot of 'thai / india" site talking about it but don't understand.
currently using ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509548
Was OK to begin with then same problems appear later on, i.e. can't pick-up incoming call. The stupid ASUS P552w HANGS.
stock V5.4's radio is sucking power, hence life short, then Asus release V5.12 with upgraded radio firmware/protocol and solve the battery short life-span problem, but daily usage stability is extremely bad. Nearly everyday have to soft-reset.
backlight flicker and is unstable. Checked 4 other units from the shop, all same problems.
HK Asus Service Centre changed the screen for me in 24hours, was fine then problems occurs but not as much anymore. Found a permanent BLUE dot but dissapppeared just before I took it in for repair - dam !!!
Mapking's GPS to identify current position takes 3 mins to lock-on is it Mapking of this phone?
HTC Home version 2.1.1.005.772 for today installed OK, but does not work - any good advice??
SCLPC++ 3D version 0-051 Cube 4-sides installed OK, but does not work - any good advice ??
FTouchFLO 1.4.1 installed OK, but screen calibration does not start at all, then force RUN - HANGS - any good advice??
FTouchFLOR configurator installed OK, operates well, but no effect, cube does not pop up.
Overclocking does not work from XPUScaler, HomeScreen, 9000 Turbo, freeclock10d, speed v11, tornado power control. Any good advice???
Thanks to all in advance.
Update ROM again from http://all-cooked.blogspot.com/
Yesterday used the 21502 version - it does not have Asus Today and no Asus GLIDE. Even faster response due to less items. Tested allot of 3rd party software on it, many wrong settings done, hence
This morning update to 21231_WM7_titanium, matching with HomeScreen ++ UI Clock as today and clone HTC cube by SCLPC++ , launching via left soft key. Haven't found application to allow sweep up to trigger the cube to start. Also does not have Asus Today and Asus GLIDE.
FTouchFlo seems not compatible.
Anyway have overclocking software to recommend?
Anyone how to enable HTC Home version 2 on this P552w ????
Anyone have clone HTC Home to recommend?
Thanks in advance.
Asus GLIDE soul dead, vampired by HTC ~~~~~~
feel like an idiot now, but what the heck, report for sharing
original HTC Home version 2 working from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=322439
well well well .....
original HTC Cube working partially from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336482
problem now is touch_screen too sensitive, can't scroll, due to FTouchFlo. Haven't found a suitable / matching setting yet.
original CUBE is able to appear via flick up, but very difficult due to wrong screen sensitivity. CUBE also closed down, but does not flip left and right, probably due to sensitivity issue I guess.....
both not full-proof yet, some missing links / bug where icon taps not dissappearing or whatever.
most probably not the software, but me
installed and uninstalled countless stuffs and times, many simpler buttons and link not working already, hence probably registry screwed up badly by me.
Plan to revert to ROM of 21502 version - it does not have Asus Today and no Asus GLIDE. And no msg appear after every reboot saying read the mort something. No many other background themes wasting space and file search time.

ROM 21502 has a bug, outlook email and sms does not work
reverted to 21501 since 11th July.
But ROM 21501 has another bug, Alarm not showing saturday - hahahahahaha
anyway, all in good fun I suppose.
Still can't get HTC Cube to work properly. Entire touch screen becomes too sensitive and every single apps open with the slightest of slide up.
Cube is extremely difficult to launch, 1 in every 50 of so
Saturday not showing in alarm is not ROM bug, is SPB mobile shell bug. Happens on ELF Onyx 5 beta 44 as well.

This cab fixes the problem.
Second file is a registry key which fixes right soft key on today screen (it's not connected to CommMgr)
Hi ABN30, wonderful, thanks in advance, downloading and will report back later. And future replies of your rom will be made to your original rom release posts.

Started using ABM30's 1st August release of 23016 for P552w. Nice Win7 spalsh start up, no more mortscript click OK every turn-on, everything else seems fine.
I still have unstable issue, I start to suspect it's the hardware. I used to keep "turbo" for CPU, now reverted back to "automatic" and seems to have more stability.
update more later.
Conclude ABM30 28011 MegaNIGHT ROM perfectly stable
Hi guys,
Just for sharing, incase someone wants to know if there was ever a conclusion to this topic's title. Yes, finally a perfect no bug stable rom found for incoming calls and others..... at least for me anyway.
Thanks to ABM30's release of CE5.2.28011 MegaNIGHT with Manila2D. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524607
Hi guys
For all the old elfin owners,
Im presenting my own cooked rom atlast.as im not a software professional not knowing ABC of software,found it very difficult to build a rom initially.But thanks to the XDA and its members could manage to build a rom ,though I build it few months back I tried to make it even more stable and less heavy,finally im releasing for u guys,plz test it and give me the suggestions for further improvements.
I have to give credit to many members of XDA people without them I could not do this.Specially to Airxterme for his OS Kitchen because though I tried with other kitchens I was a failure,finally with OS kitchen I succeeded,than to MIKY I followed many of his tweaks for my rom.Also there are many other people who helped me in the process.thanks for all the guys out there.

I've tried it, looks awesome, I'm really enjoying it, finally I've found the rom for me . Very good for a first build, way better then Onix IMO. At least it's bug free, so far I've seen only one thing you MAY consider a bug: When you go to settings in the Home screen and start pressing button down to go lower (there are two more options), you don't see where the cursor (selected rectangle) is going, you only know you're down, you must use the touch pad to scroll down. Hope you understood me, will report more in the future as I'm done with rom upgrades for a long time
Thank you very much,,

EDIT: Shut down screen is NOT cool!

ur welcome.
highlighted area (rectangle)?? u mean in the start menu,it will not move,u have to scroll the start menu then have to select the icon u want to open than that icon will be highlighted.
Well, sorry for the bad news but... I replaced it (now I'm using Mikey's rom and I can say it's really good so far). Main reason is: once after turned on, I couldn't turn off wireless... (please consider and fix that). Sorry but that's major, you need more work on it. Cheers m8.
i am really excited about your new rom and i shall download and install it in the evening. Will soon give you feedback.
one issue if i may ask for your help is that after installing hspl 3.10 and custom roms the screen alignment of my elfin goes out very frequently. I have to realign my screen repeatedly rendering the phone useless in any emergency. Have you heard of this issue earlier and is there any solution. Thanks.

hi,
If u have tapped accuratly over the + mark the issues will be solved usually.but sometimes it may repeat 2_3 times,I too experienced it,and even after accurate tapping if it happenes repeatedly ,(if the device is old )than the touch sensation of screen might be the reason.
New Rom
Congrats. A welcome development.
fast loading - smooth operation. Quite professional.
Comm manager switches not working as mentioned by HipHopBlond. This problem solved by installing HTC CommManager 2.9.F.1.WAlien.cab. Now the switches work. I am on 29021 build - stable. Of course, as discussed everywhere, fast battery drain. Overall - Good.
Thanks for breaking the jinx of no rom developments for a long time.

anyone tested?? any advises??
I tried the ELF model, when starting windows I had a problem with wifi involved. Nice work but since I have a rom ELF model with a little frame and Roma. It would be nice if they made a light version for ELF users
gud work dude

Hi,
My second response. I started with 29021 and subsequently the other 2 versions and I am back in 29021. Like I said earlier, comm Manager, seems to be the only hassle so far in my testing.Last time I had suggested the comm Manager whitealien which you rightly pointed out that BT was not functioning. Now I am using comm manager-op_2.7.2.8 and all including BT are working. One more thing, Youtube (I use dsixda_HTCYoutube) loads but video cannot be played. Any suggestions- I tried both on Edge and wifi. In all other roms I have used this far, youtube was functional.
Nevertheless, your rom is quite professsional for a first try. Keep it up, friend and roll out more developments. I am a ELFIN fanatic and no matter how many other mobiles I may own, ELfin continues to be my personal favourite. Thanks for effort in keeping this forum alive and kicking.
