Hermes Touchflo: anybody willing to give a proper roundup? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Hi,
i was reading through the posts in this forum and over at 4winmobile.com regarding the porting of Touchflo and all the apps unique to Wizard.
What I still don't get is this:
Is there a "working" CAB already out now? So that I would just need to install that CAB to have Touchflo?
If there is, which would be the best ROM to go with it.
Are there any complete Roms, that have Touchflo already enabled?
How stable is the whole thing anyway?
Maybe somebody who is really into this can give us all an update/ walkthrough on this topic, since information on it is widely scattered over several posts at the moment.
Thanks for your efforts,
trial

roundup... touchFLO is currently only buttonFLO on the hermes.

and at SchapsROM it is only Buttonflo with Blackscreen...

so, there is no proper ROM avaible, that has at least touchButton installed by default?
What about the other questions I asked?
anybody?
thx

"ButtonFLO" is known to work well with blackmajik and most latest roms.
So that I would just need to install that CAB to have Touchflo?

There is no need to install a cab to assign the button. Just set any button to run the app.

Yes, there is some rom flying around. black majik + "ButtonFLO" but you have to assign the button. The steps to make it function are in there. Just follow.

TouchFLO was not meant/made for hermes but for HTC Touch therefore it doesnt run perfectly but some people at 4winmobile.com are still working on making it better.

There's a Black Majik ROM that was re-cooked with the added files in Windows over at 4winmobile. I think Slueth? cooked it but not 100% sure. I'm actually using it right now, but I didn't add the ButtonFlo CAB cause the first time I used it, it worked for a little, but as you add apps it acts weird, so, I'm using just the ROM and it's absolutely awesome! Super stable, etc!

guys, thanks for all your replies!
will continue my search with your infos now, and add to this post, as i have more info myself.

Questions after upgrading to WM6 - Help...

Ok, I have upgraded my Hermes to WM6 using the ROM on the wiki site.
I have installed all my apps and everything was looking great. I then noticed the Extended ROM and half a dozen cab files. So I have installed all of these as assumed they were some sort of patches.
I carried on installing my apps but now after a reboot the SIM PIN Lock entry screen looks a really basic (non 3d) button version and the keypad that should be shown when pressing the green call button isn't displayed I just get a white screen.
I have installed the following apps:-
eWallet 5
Tomtom 6
PocketBreeze 5.2
Phone Alarm + VistaMedia skin
Any ideas on what has happened?
Do I need to re-flash my phone?
Help..
Thanks

Which version have you upgraded to?? If it is v0.20.x (thats 0.20.0 or 0.20.1) this is a known issue, seriously recommend reading the thread concerned with the ROM you are flashing before going ahead (the link for the thread is in the table aswell).

Yes it was the Vanilla version. I have done the wrong one?

The best thing to do is to is to perform a 'Hard Reset' which will reset your device back to the same point as when the rom was flashed, so you will need to reinstall everything. Suggest you install the same things again but dont install the skin....this might be incompatible with WM6 (since nearly all skins are designed for use in WM5).
BTW, i would take some time to read through the wiki and familiarise yourself with the various reset types and other literature on ROM upgrades, the knowledge in these pages will hold you in good stead for the future sir

Just one other question. Should I have ran all the CAB's from the Extended ROM?

Not really....the best thing you can do is to leave the ext_rom alone and just manually configure your MMS and WAP settings by hand. The ext_rom (again) contains cab installers that are designed for WM5.....while most should work in WM6 there are some that dont. ext_rom is something i havent used for ages in XDA-Live (v0.1 and now 0.2) and I dont miss it.
Just install the apps you were running (phonealarm and others). The ext_rom doesnt do much except run carrier based stuff (like themes and automatic settings).

Looking for the Enterprise files to test with.......

I have a HTC Wizard running WM6 and I am having a big issue with L2TP/IPSec VPN not working. I have it partially working using the 5.2.318 ROM as a base, however this is now quite old and I would prefer to run the 5.2.1413 ROM that is out there, however I have not really had any sucess with this ROM and L2TP/IPSec.
I would be grateful if someone could post the Enterprise files from a Hermes 5.2.1413 ROM (ipsec.dll, ipsecsvc.dll, l2tp.dll, scard.dll & winscard.dll) so I could test these.
Thanks
Andy
here you go. i still would like to know if you get this working. back to the wizard forums for me...

Thanks for these. I assume they are from your Hermes? What base ROM version are you running?
The files are exactly the same as the Wizard 5.2.318 files I have (whicah are also the same size as the ones from the HTC Wing). I'll give it a shot but I have a feeling there is something else that isn't quite right - maybe a Wizard specific driver that these .DLLs can't interface with, or something....
Thanks

Tried, but didn't find the cabs. Do you have a link?
Must admit just did a search myself for this version of task manager and no cabs are coming up. Seems its cooked into various roms.
Stick around; someone will come along in a minute and post it up.

The only one I have is Task_Manager_2_0_30487_2. If u decide u want it...here it is.

Thanks, but that's the version I'm using right now. I like the improvement of the graphics in the newer build
I am also looking for the new Task Manager 2.0.31249.1 cab (searched all over the place, but can't find it anywhere). I have only seen it cooked into Schaps 4.30 ROMs. Maybe we should hit him up and ask if he has it in a cab?

When i plug it to the pc an try to connect with the tomtom software, it shows me, that the maps etc are still on the storage card. But i cannot launch the navigation. Also when i use the gprs buton on the left side a strange page comes and somewhere stands, that there is no fix..or something? Whats a fix?

1. find it here,there is some text and a pic
2.settings>today>themes
3.you have to find tom tom installation (cab or exe)...i think there is a file in the wiki(slick my signature) because when you flashed the rom,all that was included in the original one was replaced or deleted
install it and it'll work
also,now that you have to download it anyway, i'd suggest you trying iGO6 iGO8,it's great and much smarter and less annoying than tomtom

Thnx for sharing there m8, exidently deleted my my meschle rom folder on my pc.

Missing important file..
There was a .cab file posted by meschel in his original post which enabled 'messege sent' notification when sending a txt.
The rom's have not got this feature as standard and need this .cab file to fix it.
Its looking really hard to find as people only have the roms and not the extra .cab file he posted too..
Anyone have it?

WM 6.5 to 6.5.1

Hi guys,
I'm using the new stock rom from HTC win WM6.5 WWE
because, i didnt find the right cooked rom for me here yet.
So my question is, is there a way for update the WM 6.5 to the version 6.5.1
which is more finger friendly, because i'm sick sometimes with trying to touch the right link, or a letter for example..
regards,
patzkata
There's no official HTC 6.5.1 ROM, if that's what you're asking. There are plenty of 6.5.1 ROMs cooked up by the chefs here though.
Thread moved (not related to ROM development).
Thanks

I've tried a several cooked roms, but neither of them likes to me.
there are a lot of bugs in them, or stuff that annoy me,
I already wrote that I didt find the right rom for me, so I'm stuck on the Official.
So the question is simple I think. Is it possible or not to make just an upgrade.
the 2 systems are with one base, I i think that it must be some kind of "hot Fix"
Am I right?

Not really, 6.5.1 is majorly different to 6.5, most of the Core OS files will have changed. 6.5.1 is also beta still, and changing weekly, you'll just have to keep trying custom cooked releases (or learn to cook).
Dave
thanks,
this answer my question ..
I guess I have to wait
