Hello all,
I don't know whether this has been discussed before or not as I haven't been able to find it. I'm wondering if it's possible to install the Orange Today menu? I'm using the Indra AKU3.2 ROM and I wanted to install only the today screen app from the Orange ROM. If this has been discussed could someone just point it out to me? Thanks.
P.S. Could someone also give me the link to the FTP site? I can never find it. Thanks!
Orange menu
The orange menu is nice application but it has very limited configuration possibilities.
I have seen already some post regarding this. However no one were able to find a way to further to improve it.

Hey there. Thanks for the cab file. It's really nice. Though it looks better on the smaller sets rather than the Universal. But thanks.
P.S. Sorry for the late reply. Didn't receive a notification of reply. I just stumbled on the thread from my cp. Cheers.
Screen shots please.

sorry about this random post but the Orange menu dont work in Crossbow ROM? I find that Orange menu saves a lot of memory! It truly makes Universal more of a phone than a computer. Because i was recently wondering... I wanted a phone and not a computer... and really i could have made my laptop a phone too by buying those quad band pcmcia cards. But I want the Universal to have more "phone" features than other "computer" features.

To start off, the Universal is a makeshift computer. Not a phone. If you're looking for more phone then you should get the smaller PDAs or a P990 or something. The fact is that the Universal will never be more phone than computer. It's just the way it's been built and well the reason it's been built. Either way I've tried the Orange menu on my Universal. I have the AKU 3.5 ROM by Helmi_c and it's working fine ... though I'm not using it much now.. Have found a new arangement for my Universal: Wisbar Advance 2, SPB Pocket Plus and SPB Diary.
Btw, Sorry for the delay in putting up the screenshots... Also sorry for them being small but there's a restriction on the size of the file and so I had to keep them small. The last one is with the Orange theme that comes with the menu.
I stumbled across this in the Universal WM6 Forum.
I can't take credit for it, Szilamer is the creator of this neat little fix.
See the original thread here.
I simply modified his cab file to include the signed dll (so it will auto start on our Hermes) and added the settings for button size and location.
You need to install both Cab files and then restart your device.
This will be embedded into WMXL v0.30 but I didn't think it was right to make you guys wait once we got it working properly.
Enjoy....
Finally!!Great work, like always..
wiki updated.
(lol like a hawk!)
Hey, thanks for scouting this solution out for us, man!
Good luck tomorrow on the house transaction. Always lots of fun, those.
Best regards
Ben
EDIT: Not just scouting it out but getting Szilamer to tweak it for the Hermes!
sweet! Does the job perfectly
Excellent! I've been looking forward to this. It works like a charm

I think you and I were on that thread at the same time. Excellent you got it to auto start.
Good luck with closing and hope all goes well. Right after they give you the keys, run
Thank you it works great in LVSW Rom, only that it appear over the old wireless manager link.. great job.
great work
thank you very much
only that it appear over the old wireless manager link.. great job.
if you know how to move it to left side,so be cool
The placement is by design (the link it covers does not currently work in WM6).
If you really want to move it then read the original thread, it explains what registry keys to change.

After install the 2 cabs, reset, having fun turning on & off wifi, I'm experiencing a weird problem. The phone felt into deep coma if I turned on Wifi then put it on standby using the power button, the only way I can turn it back on is do a reset. I remove the cab and the problem is gone. I tested it several times already. Anyone else have this problem?
btw, I'm using the LVSW Edition (2007-03-20).

Same ROM, exact same problem... soft reset only solution.
If not a problem on ROMs other than 320LVSW, maybe conflicts with new 'wireless manager' bubble?
Cheers
Same problem on Black v1.2

I changed the xpos to 7 in the registry and it's now on the left side of the bubble.
So this was the reason for hermes freezing on LVSW (20-3-2007).
I removed cab.
I have thought that it was the reason of the rom.
Thank you, Passenger!
By the way...the best position for me was x=6.
Freezes
Hmm, that's strange.. It's working great with suspends on Universal.
Does everybody have this problem with freezes ?
(Even with WMXL version?)
Anyway there is one more method to switch on/off wifi .. (with the help of ossvcs.dll)
Hey guys,
I think we have now have finger flo on the hermes and trinity!!!
a friend of mine has sent me a modified touch.dll which works with finger flow, he has modified it for the trinity and hermes but cannot create a cab.
he is using a wizard and here is a video of it working, but he also has it working on trinity:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=NGRGZzIHm...elated&search=
the modified touch.dll is attached, could someone look into creating a CAB as i am not to hot at doing this yet!!!
I really hope this is the answer to the touch flo thing!!
TouchFlo on 8525
Do you think this will work on my Cingular 8525?
Thanks
Hmmm...added the touch.dll to jj's and bepe's alpha cab and it doesn't work I'm afraid to say - it disabled the touch screen completely...I may have done something wrong but the fact that the touch screen stopped working suggested that the original touch.dll was overwritten by this one..
Smiffy...
yep, touch screen is deactivated completely now...lol and i stupid forgot to backup the original touch.dll.......
anyone got a backup?

Did you SR after applying the new DLL?
Yes I did do a SR
The original touch.dll is in ROM so if you can use the keyboard and buttons to get rid of the new one (I managed to navigate to add\remove and uninstall my cab) the old one will re-appear and start working again no HR needed
Smiffy.
btw it somehow changed my htc home plugin...from 4 buttons to 3......lol

Dang. Got my hopes up to have them shot down. Hopefully someone can get this working because I have no idea how to. What did your friend do to modify the DLL?
Hey guys, i am no programmer, i have a friend who has got this working on the trinity with this dll, that is all i know!!!
i was hoping someone could look at it as i have no clue, all i do know is that it works on the trinity, and if it does it WILL work on the hermes!!

the wizard touchdll isnt compatible with the Hermes touch screen different hardware.. already tried
So, more of the same, which is nothing. I for one am not really waiting for it. I don't think its worth it.
Though it is funny to see threads like "TouchFLO working finally" and in it, some people got ButtonFLO working...kinda...sometimes.
And now "Touch Flow working with Fingers" and it doesn't.
Next will be "Really, its working now!" and yet it won't.
Thanks for the unintentional comedy...
The key thing here is that if you cook a rom with the touch.dll rom included, does the digitizer work once FWUPDATE runs? (screen cal). As we've seen so far with other dll's, when one is cooked in, it won't pass the second splash screen (IPL/SPL view).
If it will pass this test - then it is almost certain to work - assuming the edits to it won't affect any other applications that will need to hook it.
I can't play until tomorrow, but i'd be curious if anyone tries to cook it in.

I would suggest that nobody *cough* bennec83 *cough* raises any more "TouchFLO is working..." threads until, well, touchflo is working

The guy who gave me this dll has it working on trinity, he in fact was the fisrt person to get it working well and release it into A ROM of any kind, i think it was Wizard (or trinity cant remember), he told me that this is the dll he used, he cooked it into a ROM AND he has it working, He has released the ROM but it is in full italian.
but he is Italian, it is very hard for my to communicate with him as i am having to learn italian at the same time!!!
From what i gathered from conversation, is the following:
1) He modified this for Trinity/hermes
2) he cooked it into an italian ROM and it worked
3) he cannot create a CAB for it
4) he asked me if i could get it tested over here, so i have.
also it aint like i have been posting daily about this touch flo thing, but if someone PM's me and tells me that this is the answer to everything, which it possible could be as it works for trinity, i thought id take some time out from celibrating my brithday and post it for everyone to get into.
I dont believe him to be a liar, i asked him to work on this AGES ago, and he last night posted this to my via PM.
I dnt get wat the big deal is, you lot need to stop having a go, I AM NO PROGRAMMER, but i can network with people, i had this new dll before anyone else and im getting **** for putting it into the public eye for the clever computer people to test and to see if we can help get this working, kinda a colaboration between us and my Italian friend!!
There is no point in him posting here, he speaks no english!!!
If this is the kind of childish response i get from supposed adults about a new file, i dont know what im supposed to do when someone sends me a file that i can do nothing with.
Maybe next time i souldnt bother releasing anything on this site, kitchens, instruction manuals, new files that no-one else managed to get, because everyone is so ungreatful, you know if i had time so sit at my computer all day and learn to cade, i would fix this thing myself, or atleast try.
Hi,
I bought an HTC p3600 last week and upgraded it WM6 for no obvious reason at the time. I tried over 6 different ROMs, and no offense to the beloved cookers, i couldn't stand the bugs, so I downgraded to WM5 again. The only things I'm missing from WM6 are the task manager menu on the top right of today menu (xBotton), which was extremly handy, the lovely big TouchPad and KeyPad, keyboards which Bepe has put in his ROMs, which are very good for writing messages with one hand, and the quick search in emails, while you typed your search string while in the inbox or any other folders. The last but the least is of coures, HTC home which is so good looking and handy.
Now is there anyway i could install these on WM5? I need cracked versions of course, as i'm leaving in Iran and due to lovely embargos getting worse every day I have no means to pay for stuff. So pls comment.

Try using the Dopod WM6 ROM or search this forum for the cab files you want.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319125&highlight=task+manager
Here is one task manager, i used search-> advanced search to find this

Use the advanced search function of the forum and your find all you need - you seem to be very familiar with searching so I wont explain that too!!
i turn from 5 to 6 too, nothing changed but good looking.
what is the bugs some people always saying? can someone give me a example?

One example is that ActiveSync was loosing it's connections in one of the cooked ROM's. That's not a problem if you use it only as phone but not handy when you sync mail from Outlook etc.
It's a big bug, but within a day it was fixed in that ROM and I could choose to use other ROM too.
The forum is called XDA Developers and that means bugs, but lastest developments too. You can't ask a bug free ROM incl. the lastest software. If you want that bug free ROM, maybe you consider an official build or consider another sort of phone like a Nokia 3310.
OR
Define your most important feautures and select one which has those features working. Report the bugs in the other features, but don't complain about them.

I did installed successfully, without any trick or crack the HTC X-Button 1.5 onto my wm5 official Qtek ROM on my Wizard.
So you can definitely have it on your wm5 ROM, just try to find the cab on the forum, it is somewhere there.
If you don't find it PM me, I will upload it for you.
To the attention of Eqbal
Hey dude, got your PM.
As requested, find herewith the X-button 1.5 that I'm using on my wm5 wizard.
Enjoy!

[REQ] Custom ROM without HTC volume control
Hello,
Does anyone have the time or inclination to make a ROM without the volume control? I only ask because I've so far found no way of disabling the program.
Basically I've discovered that the standard WM dialer is more responsive and more intuitive than the Diamond one while using about 8MB less memory. The problem is, the in-call volume won't work unless the HTCVolumeControl can be disabled or removed.
I'm going to follow up this request with a noob question - how easy is it to take an existing cooked ROM and remove applications?
Many thanks
Cooking a ROM without Volume control is easy. Just remove the DIAMOND Volume Control from your kitchen.
Many thanks for the reply! I don't currently have a kitchen.
If I were to find a chef who is willing to let others alter their work, how long would it take a novice to achieve?
Try VIC's ROM for example. Also take a look at: Cooking Guides for Ultimate Noobs.
Thanks again. I've had a look at VIC's ROM, looks good. I'll have a look at that guide when I have some spare time.
How much time would you guess it would take to do the job? I'm a complete noob but fairly quick learner.
Isn't there an option to disable this in one of the tweak progs, either schaps adv. config or diamond tweak, I'm sure one of the two can do this.

This option does exist in Diamond Tweak but it doesn't work.
I've searched the forum and found a manual method that involves stopping a service called HTCVolume, however that service doesn't appear to exist in the latest ROMs. HTC must have changed something which would also explain Diamond Tweak not working.

For me, the 8MB free came when using the standard WM dialer rather than the HTC one. It's not as pretty but it does match my altered windows colour scheme. I'd rather have a phone that works properly than one that just looks nice - which is why I'm not using TouchFlo 3D either.
I would guess I'm getting an additional 1 or 2 MB with the volume control also gone.

Seems the DLL?? messes up the font of the USB PopUp and SIP Selection screen Will try to cook a ROM without the VolumeControl to see if you can disable it without causing trouble to the fonts on the device..
I'm already using a ROM without the HTC Volume Control, Panosha Simple 1.1, so I don't need this cab anymore. It was invaluable before I switched ROMs!
I can confirm that the SIP selection text is already broken, without installing this cab. HTC must have relied on their dialer dll for the fonts on these other menu screens.

Not had that problem, except for the one time mentioned above which was caused by SKTools.
It's a very plain ROM - no Manila, Opera or even MMS! However, it suited my needs and I was able to track down all of the cabs I needed eventually.
