I would like to dump the latest stock ROM released by sprint so that I can take the touchflo and cube settings from that ROM and imprort them to a cooked ROM that I prefer to use, though does not support the cube. I have looked around for a 'How to' to do this but found nothing specific for this phone. If someone could point me in the right direction, what software I need, etc., I would really appreciate it. THanks in advance!
Also, if you have better suggestions on how to get the cube working with TOuchflo3 on a cooked ROM, please let me know.

what exactly do you mean? what "stuff" came on your alltel touch? obviously, flashing also comes with the effects of a hard reset. you might try blee's vogue kitchen to get it just how you want it, seeing as how virtually the only benefit of 6.1 pro edition is threaded sms.
if you want that that badly (threaded txt), take a look at these threads:
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6800-xv6800/90614-palm-threaded-sms-wm6.html -palm threaded sms
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=17410 -method to move keyboard to desired location...no longer have to have kb covering input area.
currently using the WM 6.1 w/Sprint version and "so far" all is well. sat nav software (connected to GPS Receiver) is working, office mobile works, windows live and WM 6.1 threaded SMS is also working. native touch keyboard/keypad is working, but i'm using Resco's keyboard w the iSkin. thanks to those at PPCGeeks for the making this available to the Sprint Touch owners.
So far, so good here as well. I have found a few annoyances, but I don't think they are WM6.1 related, I think they relate to additional programs that were pre-installed with the rom. I'm going to try and use the clean WM6.1 rom, along with BLEE0125’s kitchen to get only what I want, we'll see how that turns out.
Otherwise, I haven't noticed anything that would keep me from continuing to use WM6.1
3 cheers for No2Chem
EDIT: I guess it would help to mention all the additional programs were due to the use of JD's 6.1 Fury rom, not No2Chem's rom directly (sorry if any confusion) - But I've since then, went back, now using No2Chem's clean rom with a touch of my own flavoring. Everything is great now!
Wolf,
I just installed No2Chem's ROM and it is very stable, with only minor adjustments needed. I would be very interested in your cleaned up ROM... The more junk OUT the better. I'm tempted to play with the Kitchen myself... I need to study how the kitchen works. Blee gave a nice tutorial, but there is obviously more to learn...

I would give this a try but considering I have a Telus Touch, there is no stock rom that I can go back to if I am not satisfied. Apparently, the rom flasher won't backup the existing rom. Does anybody know how to backup the rom on a cdma touch? Thanks!

Can someone please tell me a good rom that will work on my ALLTEL CDMA TOUCH? Ive seen all kinds of roms on here but dont know which one will work if any. The main thing i want is WM 6.1 upgrade, and the main reason for that is the new internet explorer offered with it with the zoom capabilities and new media stuff. Can someone please list a couple even one really good rom in there opinion. Again its for the ALLTEL CDMA TOUCH.
I have the same question for the Verizon Touch. Although I am certainly willing to wait for the Rev A and GPS enabled ROM... I figured I would get some experience with these others first.

dcd's rom is a good place to start. you will either have to implement the alltel customizations yourself or wait a few days until he gets the alltel version (and the others for that matter) back up, but its there, he made one

also, all the roms (that dont include radio's) will work for any carrier. the only things that might be added/missing/out of wack would be different proprietary media applications such as sprint tv or the ce os build may be slightly different. so basically it would be a littler nicer for you guys to wait for dcd to get his roms hosted somewhere again, but if you would like to try 6.1 in the mean-time, just download the kitchen, click buildnb.bat, select the components you want included in the rom, hit the little "play" button, wait, and flash away!
feel free to ask more questions and good luck!

EDIT: and ppcgeeks.com has about 1000 custom roms, so i would really recommend looking there, there are some really great ones there.

also, this isnt for 6.1, but if you decided you are just going to wait for dcd to get an alltel version posted, you might do this in the meantime just to keep things running smoother and everything:

could you post a link to the dcd roms you were talking about? ive probably passed them up but havent found them. By the way theres a rev a rom thats for alltel listed on the first page. It works for verizon from what ive read but ask a senior member first. its got some minor cool tweaks besides rev a too.
also maybe post a link to a good 1 without the "radio" like u said?
Thanks Jim,

Hi,
please help an HD newbie...
I like the standard TouchFlo on my, more or less, still standard HD but would simply like a plain black background on all the Tabs/Pages or whatever (The home/weather/ music etc ).
Can anyone give me a simple cab or something equally straighforward to do this?
Also, I have a different contacts program running (funcontacts) It is called fine when I call it from contacts via phone etc but NOT from the People tab, All People button. How do I get my HD to do this please.
Any help much appreciated!

The cab below should give you the same background image across all TouchFLO tabs. Install it and soft-reset. As far as I know you cannot re-map the "All People" softkey from the People tab...
Thanks
Thanks CW,
Going out for an hour but I'll try when I get back. Thanks again,

Thanks CW but I'm afraid it only partially worked. All the tab screens went black but the ino at the top of each went really weird and cr*ppy!
Anymore ideas anyone please.

I should have looked earlier at what rom you are running. You have quite an older version of TouchFLO in your rom. The cab I posted was intended for a much newer one. That's why it didn't work as I described it would. You could look into Maxycy's software to customize your TouchFLO. Other than that, I don't know what else still supports the older version.
Stupid question?
Why is it an old ROM in a brand new phone?
Shouldn't it be bang up to date? I had to wait for delivery because they were waiting for 'new' phones!
Am I just stupid?

No, HTC / the vendor is. Said you had a 1.19.xxxx rom when they have up to 1.59.xxxx released now. You should look into updating it. Are you interested in custom roms? If not, you should still look into updating to the latest official rom
in fact even the most recent stock roms (provided by operator) are often outdated compared to the roms you can find here (@xda)
they are mostly based:
newer builds of wm6.1 or wm6.5beta
some parts from other (newer) devices
optimzed and customized by the authors
i suggest you to read the hd section to see what u can do with your phone
Will do guys, thanks.
BTW, got my black screen on all tabs! Just had to do a bit of work and use Manila Editor. I will take a look at custom ROMs but they scare me
Maybe I'll pluck up the courage, just worried I'll brick my device!
Thanks again.

Flashing is easy if you are well informed beforehand. Just do the research before you flash. Read the Wiki and my guide on flashing roms. Links are in my signature.
I just got my T-mobile Dash and I read around this message board and see all the cool stuff you guys do. Im not completely stupid (at least in dont think lol) cause I flashed phones before, some which turned out good, and some ive bricked (lol)
Anyways what Im getting at is a i want a cool home screen like you guys got. I think you guys are using "Chome" if im not mistaken? Where can I get it? Is there a specific one I need to get? Do I need to flash my phone or is it just like a .cab file that I install on my phone? What stuff do you guys recommend I get to just get me started on making a cool home screen? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Again

All the 6.5roms have Chome. and they are very customizable. You will need to flash your phone if you want the full package. Check the sticky and make sure you do an application lock prior to flashing.. I personally recommend ookba's 3vo rom and edit everything with Roloracer's titanium filechanger. I also recommend you search this forum for the icon and background thread for some cool backgrounds for your phone. image size for backgrounds are 320x240
RE:
Hey I looked and searched around for the ookba 3vo rom and had no luck. Is It just a rom that flashes me to windows 6.5? Can the dash have windows 6.5 on it? are there any other things or steps I need to Do before flashing the phone? Do I need a program to flash the phone or is it just like a ROM you would download from T-mobile, hook up the phone with usb, an let the install do the rest? Please help. Thanks man.

you dont have to look very far, the rom is 3rd from the top of the list!

Very true. 3volution series rom's are the biggest thing since sliced bread here in the dash world. Let me answer a few questions for the thread starter.
Is It just a rom that flashes me to windows 6.5? Can the dash have windows 6.5 on it?

It is the rom itself that will flash you to WM6.5 using the fore mentioned thread will directly link you to ookba's 3vo rom for the dash. Additionally check the Sticky out. (the very first post) it has a list of everything im linking you too.
Do I need a program to flash the phone or is it just like a ROM you would download from T-mobile, hook up the phone with usb, an let the install do the rest?

You don't really need a "program" everything will come in the files downloaded from the 3vo rom thread. The one thing you will need to do is download and install an SDA application unlock found here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355789
After that's done check out this thread on flashing for the Dash, its a little outdated but everything is the same. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415225

I've been looking all over XDA and the Internet for this one. There's mods for it, custom ROMs that use it, and even a utility to tweak it. But as many times as I can find it referenced, I can't find a TouchFlo 3D 2 panel for the Xperia. I am running this TF3D for the Xperia (thanks itje) as well as the extra Cab that turns it into a panel, and the workaround that makes it have an acceptable landscape version. Now, I've clearly missed something, because many other people seem to have this on their X1's with no problem. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Also, I am not interested in a ROM version. If that is all there is, then please tell me about it, but I would much rather have it in a cab file if that does even exist.

this will more than likely get ya the same stuff though...to be honest with ya, you should take the plunge and flash a rom!
there are plenty that arent buggy and very stable
Thanks for the help. I had (as I thought) overlooked the obvious. Fixed up now, and couldn't be happier. And to your second thought, I have tried flashing ROMs in the past. Not difficult and relatively safe as long as instructions are followed. Frankly though, I think I'm one of the few who actually likes the original stuff. Reset it all to factory and updated to R3A, now I'm set. As it is, I needed it back factory to take advantage of the warranty; need a new one because of some pretty bad case cracking. Everyone seems to be familiar with that one.
Anyway, thanks for your help.
