It sounds like you are looking for everyone to do the work for you.
As previously stated, the sticky threads are where to start.
The search function also works flawlessly.
It would take an hour to look up all the things you listed and repost the links here.
Modding your device is a work in progress my friend, your work in progress

Thx,
Yes Its True I joined XDA @ 2008. but i did not use it.
I started using when i purchase HTC S710 and i was quite Happy with all the stuff available here.
I recently Purchase Xperia and i was really Dream abt it; since 1 Yr.
finally i get it . but i wanted to know right Apps to install because thre are several Version.
I myself Change the ROM to R3A UK Version ; priore to that i install WM 6.5 but i was not happy with it because lot of Bugs.
so i delete and Use the Original latest ROM available but still its missing lot of SW
Video, Radio( I install HTC Radio and its work fine), ... several apps missing ..
so i was requested to Post all apps available wiich was tested to run with XPeria.
The main issue is after i install TF3D Beta3 ; there is still some bugs ..
iknow XDA ppl are working hard to release the better one.
I really Appreciated,
but in Beta3 of TF3d i found we need to press harder in order to access floating menu , and its take time to load the apps.

For apps and stuff I go to IPmart. You can find everything you want!

@mspl
First, try Jack's medium or full 6.1 ROM for a couple of days. Than you'll decide what you still miss.

for gods sake, why no one is helping me-how can I tweak the GPS-please someone help

Hey Guys
I am using the following
Radio: 4.49
Rom: WWE 6.5
Operator: T Mobile
I have advanced config, and I saw a thread about tweaking the gps, please can someone explain to me in detail how to do that. Under GPS in advanced config it was mentioned to set log file to No logging , but everytime i chose no logging when i restart the device it goes back to \windows\GPSlogFile.txt
it was also mentioned to delete the old and current log file how can I do that.
Are those tweaks applicable to win mobile 6.5

Look for the Cabs,Tips,Tweaks etc thread stickied at the top of this section

I really feel annoyed by when people tell me look at this or that thread when from my post you can tell that I already did that. I tried to follow the instruction on the tweaks, cabs thread, but got stuck, so please why in this forum specifically every time I ask a question I get these insulting replies.
I think I will abandon my dam HTC TOUCH pro2 and go back to HTC TOUCH HD forum since at least there I get answers. I am really pissed now.
For gods sake respect that we are at least trying to learn, and stop being rude to us, by showing us that we are stupid

I don't know what to tell you. When i got it it took a lot to get a lock so i updated the radio from the official site, installed SeaSGEE (do a search), downloaded the content, used the gps registry tweak ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Rhodium/GPS Tweaks ) and the lock is under 2 minutes (although i believe the lock time is horrible compared with the samsung omnia which was 15 seconds).
Hope it helps.

As far as I can tell .. transcriber and letter recognizer do not come with 6.5 anymore they took it out I Loved it .. but I guess noone used it. )
I have tried installing it .. on 6.5 with NO LUCK ;( If you find a way message me too !
Just found this : http://pocketnow.com/thought/goodbye-transcriber
Handwriting recognition has always been a feature of Windows Mobile that went unrivaled by most other smartphone operating systems. Admittedly, most people either didn't use the feature or didn't know that it existed. About a year ago, we did a tutorial on how to use the features of Transcriber to get fantastic handwriting recognition.
The upcoming HTC HD2 has a capacitive screen, meaning that traditional styli cannot be used with the device. Because of this, HTC has stripped out the Transcriber option, as seen below from the HD2 ROM. Also of note is that there is now only one keyboard option, which is HTC's Touch keyboard. Gone is the small stylus keyboard that we've come to know for many generations of Windows Mobile.
With Transcriber gone, will you miss it?

You don't need to take it personal and get upset.
You should at least consider that the issues you're asking about are not common....so the number of people who know or care about the answer is small. If they were common issues then you'd find many other posts stating the same problem. Do you?
If you've followed the suggestions and the suggestions don't work for you, then what more can anyone say? How much time are people supposed to devote to troubleshooting a problem that only you have?
If you scan down the list of threads, those threads that have 0 responses are either questions that are odd/unique/unknown or have been answered so often that there's a sticky with the answer at the top of the forum...which indicates that the poster isn't even trying to help themselves.
BTW: If I had the answer to your technical issues I'd offer it, but I don't.

If I read the site you linked to correctly, L3V5Y says the transcriber is a registry setting, but is still in the OS. Anyone know what registry setting would enable it?
I just checked my Tilt2 and it still has transcriber. If you click on the Keyboard icon, it brings up the options. Go to other input methods, and transcriber is one of them. I don't know of any custom roms that have the transcriber, but my Tilt2 rom has it. I haven't flashed anything to my Tilt2 yet, but will be doing so soon. I have flashed a lot of roms to my old Tilt and Fuze, but am really looking to get a stock ATT rom with the BS bloat taken out. I have yet to look at Da_g's, but will be doing so shortly.
And, by the way, I've been a member for about three years, but my post count is low because I do search for things. when I have asked a question, I typically have gotten great responses. The "go search" people are usually smug people with no knowledge, but have seen others write it, so they do too.

My GPS wakes up in <10s in clear skies when it's been on somewhat recently, perhaps 1 minute if it's got stale data.
If your GPS takes forever to warm up, there's something wrong with it. As for the registry entries, you're probably just doing it wrong. Besides, there's zero need for it anyway.

What ver of Mobile you have 6.1 ??
In Mobile 6.5 - If I goto Keyboard icon, it brings up the options. I have NO "other input methods "
sad to say .. But true
--------------------------------------edit
Ok .. I am a dumbass I installed Transcriber .. and true it does not give you the option of choosing it from the optons menu ..
However if you find transcriber.exe in the windows dir .. you can run it and it does work !
So I made a link and added it to the startup dir in windows and it works just fine now
Just a warning .. if you change to the full or compact qwerty it closes transcriber and you will have to restart it to make it work again :/

My Tilt 2 (6.5) offers Transcriber, Keyboard, Letter Recognizer, and Block Recognizer. Sorry your ROM is crippled.

I have a tilt2 and both transcriber and letter recognizer (my favorite) are enabled and the tilt 2 does use wm 6.5. i went back to the stock rom after flashing the energy rom because it didn't have it, i just prefer features over speed. i vow not to flash another rom unless it has full handwriting recognition, i for one use it a lot more than the keyboard.

Hi hykhleif
I think that you have misunderstood the ethos of this forum. This is a developers forum not a users forum. There is a "Questons and Answers" section in the General section of the forum which you'll see at the top of the main forum page. You may get more detailed help by posting questions there.
I think that if you want "user" advice generally this is potentially not the best place to look but a forum on the HTC website. I think that www.expansys.com has some good user forums as well.
I hope you get your device working to your satisfaction.
Best wishes

Mods,
Not that I am a religious freak or anything like that, not that I object to those who choose to believe in that sort of stuff...
For the record I would like to convey my objection to the tone err attitude err approach err demanding nature of the comments err are we here on this planet to serve this person err is he a reincarnated faro? I move that this thread be removed and our faro friend be given some lessons/guidance on how to communicate in a none aggressive (or pigheaded) way...
We all get frustrated... we all have people in our lives that represent a challenge... our girlfriends/boyfriends all get headaches from time to time... so lets keep a lid on the aggressive nature particularly in this our very fine forum...
PATIENTS is a VIRTUE.

simply i apologize to my tone, i was not aggressive but frustrated.

Brand new to WM and I need help please

Hi guys,
I have recently just purchased AT&T Tilt 2 and it is my first HTC as well as my first WM phone. Prior to this purchase, I have been using kids phone like sony ericsson walkman and stuff like that. I was wondering, what are some apps that is a MUST HAVE for the rhodium? What apps can I download to make my tilt 2 run more smoothly? What can i do to make it run more smoothly? Also, What is HARD SPL? and what is flashing?
Thanks in advance for all inputs!!
I cant wait till i get my tilt 2, delivery should take about a week.
Cheers

Welcome to the windows party!
How do you know if you need to speed it up if you don't even have it yet! At least experience it first hand...
HardSPL is a tool that allows you to flash ROMs to your phone that AT&T didn't supply (Such as a ROM direct from HTC, or a custom rom written by one of the great people here at XDA). Without HardSPL, the only ROM that you can apply to your Tilt2 would be from AT&T.
Must have apps depend on your interests. Some people might like a certain app while others could care less for it. There is a lot out there, and thankfully there is now the App Store that you can browse apps yourself and see what is out there. Look through different roms as well and see the apps that people include there. And feel free to search to your hearts content, using the site and using google. There is a lot of information out there.
As for just getting started here, visit the WIKI page for the Rhodium over at wiki.xda-developers.com as it is a great getting started site. Also tilt2.blownfuze.org is a nice place to get started as well with your new phone.
Jason

hi myrandex, thank you very much for the reply. I have been obsessed over this phone for a few months now and finally saved enough money to purchase one. So i have been reading a little bit about this phone and noticed a general consensus about it having lags and stuff so thats why i asked about apps to make it more smooth.
Sorry as I am complete new and ignorant to WM ... but is the benefit of flashing ROMs to your phone and what exactly does it do? and what is the difference between flashing ROMs and the ROMs that AT&T supplied?
And as for the apps, i know their are tons of apps out there suited for different people and different needs. But i was wondering if there is some apps that are generally appreciated by rhodium users and are considered a 'must haves' for every rhodium user. I remember reader about some apps that allows you to run your rhodium with lesser lag? Im not too sure.
And again, thank you very much for the inputs!
I am very happy and excited to join the WM community hehe. Just cant wait to get my hands on my tilt 2.
Cheers

I am just like you...
you could start here for the basics....
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=FAQ
gives a lot of info...
then in the ROM development thread.. start with the one for the noobs.. its a sticky..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
try and get as much info from here as possible.. then do your flashing..
good luck..

i too am new to WM, but i would say get use to your phone first before flashing. Once you flash, there might be bugs on the ROM that the chef (person who created the ROM) created and will need updates. Some ROM might clash with some apps and vice versa.
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/
Awesome site to find apps.
I suggest the following thread for software you should get: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550973&highlight=facebook&page=1

Just got my HTC Tilt 2 and need some help!

Okay so for Christmas I got the HTC Tilt 2 with WM6.5 on the AT&T network. Its a great phone but I want to make it better. Through some google searches and what not I found this site and knew i had to join anyway....
Okay so one think I am desperately looking for is a flash player, mainly so I can watch youtube videos. I tried Adobe Flash Lite but it didnt work and the youtube mobile app didn't work either. So anyway know of any good flash player?
Another thing is this is my first smart phone my last phone (some samsung thing) could barely call and text people so im still learning the ropes with this thing and have therefore never edited anything on my phone. So a basic description of like what exactly a ROM is and Flashing a ROM. Also is a skin for TF3D just a skin or is it like I guess what you call a ROM? Then the Radio I am almost sure when it says "Flash a Radio" its not talking about the FM AM kind is it?
Also I have seen some pretty sweet skins but I dont plan on changing my skin every week so I am looking for just an amazing skin! So if you know any sleek, modern, colorful, simplistic, clean skins a quick link would be great!
Bah! While I am asking all these questions can someone please explain why the HTC Tilt 2 (or any HTC phone for that matter) fall under the "Rhodium" category and what relation does it have to the phone.
Again just trying to familiarize myself with what I am doing before i do this so called "Flashing".
Also any basic info that may help a person like me.
Again thanks in advanced for the help looking forward to being more part of this community!

Congrats on getting the device. You'll either love it or hate it...
Re: Flash player
The new Pocket IE browser supports built in flash. I recall there's another browser that does as well, but I can't remember. Skyfire? Someone else should be able to come up with the name...
Re: definition of ROM and Radio
Suggest you to read about them in the wiki. ROM is your device's firmware. Radio is the software that controls your cellular reception and GPS.
Skin for TF3D does not equal ROM. Essentially it's a theme. Before installing themes, make sure the theme is made for your version of manila. But if it's a cab file, you can simply uninstall to reverse any changes.
Re: the name of your device
The Tilt2 is the same as HTC Touch Pro2. Rhodium is HTC's code name for this family of devices. The "Tilt" name is just AT&T's branding.

So, I got this phone back in September. This was also my first smartphone. I read and read through all the tutorials here on ROMs, radios, flashing, and registry tweaks. The answers to the majority of your questions are in the FAQs/XDA-Wiki.
HTC YouTube App: I think there's a fix available here on XDA. I think itt has something to do with editting the connection settings. You might want to search for that using the search function of the forum.
ROM (flashing): think of it as like upgrading your PC from XP to Vista or Vista to 7.
TF3D (aka Manila or Sense): a UI (user interface) it's sort of a skin on top of Windows Mobile. Since WM is old and appearance hasn't improved that much, HTC implemented this UI to cover up some flaws of WM.
Radio-ROM: No, that's not the FM Radio. It's a software thing that handles the phone capabilities of the phone (the Tilt2 is a PDA/phone).
(Changing) Themes: There's a lot of themes out there to suit our personalities! Go look! Besides, when you get addicted to flashing, you'll get used to changing things and setting things up over and over again!
Rhodium: (I just completed a Chemistry course; I never knew this was an element on the Periodic Table!) HTC code name of the Touch Pro2 and Tilt2.
Feel free to PM me if you need any help. Like I said, it's also my first smartphone, and I would have to say I learned a lot since I first got it (pretty recently). So I would know what you're experiencing right now.

Yes, Skyfire has full flash support and is very fast because everything goes through SkyfireLab servers. However, video playback quality will be horrible (especially YouTube!).
I just remembered, if you go to m.youtube.com in Opera Mobile Browser and you press on a video, the video will play in the HTC Video Player. So, it's not really playing in the browser; it's like you're downloading the video into your Tilt2.

Ah ok cool. Yea I have skyfire I forgot it did flash but the resolution is a bit fuzzy. Pretty sure I will love it just as soon as I figure out what in the world im doing! Since I love customizing and tweaking things which is the main reason I didnt go with an iPhone that and the full QWERTY keyboard.
I guess I shall read the wiki/faq

Welcome to forums
You had a great gift for Xmas!!
I assume you still have the stock ROM, which I personally think it´s crap...
I would recommend to install a cooked ROM from this great site!
Onalmost any cooked ROM you have the youtube app so you can see videos
Have a deep read on the Rhodium Wiki so you start to familiarize with all that you can do
Good luck and don´t forget to vote!

Yea love the phone but yes I still have the Stock ROM (hey I know what I am talking about now!) yes it is crap. Not liking the fact that it constantly stays at 74% RAM.
Oh you just reminded me abotu another question of mine.
How do I get rid of all the freakin trail ware that came pre-loaded on this phone! I think I read in multiple places most good ROMS should get rid of that.

LOL I think every ROM here gets rid of that crapware!

Ok good because it keeps me up at night just knowing that its on my phone >
Ok cool just read the Wiki found a list of ROMs that look great > just 2 possible more questions
1) Ok so it says I should back up my phone completely before flashing which makes sense. But to where? I have my conacts and stuff on Microsoft MyPhone but Im pretty sure my apps and everything else isnt on there. Do i Just copy all the phones files and paste them somewhere on my computer?
2) Just incase something goes horribly wrong is there a Hard Reset on the phone that No matter what the phone will go back to factory reset. Even after flashing?

There is a YouTube app included on the Tilt 2. It is hidden from the Start Menu by default. If you open File Manager and browse to the Windows directory, you will find YouTube there. Once you launch it for the first time, it should also be referenced in the Start Menu, or at least in the "All Programs" list option in the TF3D Programs tab. If not, you can easily COPY the youtube.lnk file from the Windows directory to Windows\Start Meny\Programs and it will show up.
The app is clean and tight, and supports the native controls of the phone (eg, the volume rocker controls volume).

I cant seem to find it I browsed the programs list and there was no YouTube Program unless its called something else.
Anyway as posted abotu still have 2 questions:
1) Ok so it says I should back up my phone completely before flashing which makes sense. But to where? I have my conacts and stuff on Microsoft MyPhone but Im pretty sure my apps and everything else isnt on there. Do i Just copy all the phones files and paste them somewhere on my computer?

1. If you have the .cabs of your apps, save them onto your PC (I have a designated folder for all my cabs, worth over 400MB!). After you flash, you're going to have to re-install them (automatically or manually, depending on if you use Sashimi, Sprite, Seven, or UC_setup [UC is only possible if it is supported by the ROM]).
2. If you flashed, your stock ROM has been overwritten, so if you hard reset, it will flash to the factory defaults that is in the flashed ROM. To go back to stock, you will need to flash back to the stock ROM, which you should find in the link posted in the above post.

Oh ok thanks for all the answers appriciate it I think I might do it this weekend if i get the time.

First off, welcome.
Next before you do ANYTHING read then re-read any and all wiki's and tutorials on the Rhodium. Learn your device inside and out FIRST before attempting to make tweaks or rom changes. If you don't read then re-read, your Christmas present can become a pretty paperweight -aka- bricking your device.
pIE and Skyfire both have Flash capabilities.
The Rhodium IS cpabale of being used as a radio, but you need to install the right cab file...again read.
That being said, a radio usually refers to the part of the phone that receives a signal so you can use it as a phone. Don't mess with THAT radio until you have read and re-read the wiki's and tutorials.
Flashing a rom means to change your operating system to a "cooked" one...one made using a windows mobile base, but specially tweaked by someone here at xda. These cooked roms cannot be flashed without first unlocking your phone. Again READ or you can brick it. Also know that flashing a cooked rom has the potential to void any warranty you have...so back up your stock rom before attempting a rom flash. It is also good to have this back up in the event that you don't like a cooked rom you have installed.
There is a great thread that lists cab files to some really good applications, which will customize your device even more. You can also create your own ringtones, and tweak the device. Again, before any major installations or registry tweaks I strongly urge you to learn all you can first, by reading the wiki's and tutorials.
I have been with xda since my wizard came out a few years ago, and I have seen far too many eager "noobs" brick their devices.
I have only had my rhodium for a month. I am still learning my device. I still have a stock rom because I am not yet comfortable with my knowledge of the Rhodium. The stock rom blows by comparison to the cooked roms, but until I am comfortable with my device, I am happy to remain stock until I learn all I need to.
Once you learn your device, you will need to join Flashers Anonymous...because like most of us here, our phones become really fun toys with pretty much unlimited possiblities...so again, welcome...and read, read, read.

HTC Sense

Is there a way to use the htc sense feature without the touchflo3d theme? That theme takes up so much memory and I want to change it but I don't want to lose my htc sense functionality. HELP PLEASE!
I would prefer if I could do it without changing ROMs bc i'm not an expert when it comes to that but if that is the case than can u tell me something easiest one to install and some instructions or just point me to a page with instructions!

What are you even asking here?... what feature do you want 'out of' touchflo that you dont want the actual "touchflo/manilla/sense interface running..... What you're asking just doesn't make sense. You'll have to reword it cause basically from what it sounds like the answer is no..
It's like asking can I take in a breath of air without actually inhaling. (people don't make sarcastic comments about how you can somehow breath without inhaling )
Give a little more info... what phone you have, what you are running on it (stock rom etc etc)
all that good stuff and maybe we can help you out here.
You MIGHT want to try a different interface that isnt as big of a memory hog like pointui or spb mobile shell. Each of those has themes that can mimic sense

No, no, the correct statement is that one can SMOKE (grass) without inhaling...

OK, I'm equally confused as to what you are asking, but if you want a response you need to provide details on exactly what version of software you are using, and which device and WM version you have.

LOL... I'm sorry for the confusion!
I have the HTC Tilt 2
Running stock rom
But I did a little reading and I see that htc sense is actually a part of touchflo 3d so I guess u can't do what i'm asking...
I was basically asking can u get the facebook integration without using the touchflo 3d, i used the spb shell it's not the same it didn't really sync(show statuses, change pictures automatically, or show updates) it just let u use a profile pic as a contact picture.
On another note: As I was reading I came across a lot of people talking about this twitter app that's suppose to be apart of htc sense called "peep" but it isn't on my phone, is it only on certain phones... what's the deal with it?

From what I've seen and read, the AT$T Tilt 2 does not have the Sense 2.5 UI enhancement, just regular TouchFlo3D. The Twitter app is part of the Sense enhancement.

oh ok... so is there a way to get the enhancements?
I will look into seeing if i can find it but if anyone already knows how please share.
As i said i'm fairly new at all this so please excuse my ignorance of certain things

Yep you have to flash a new rom with sense 2.5 in it... go into the rom section and read the sticky threads at the top. They dumb it down so a monkey can do it.
