Cody and myself have repeatedly stated to NOT ask questions about the ROM or problems here - this thread is for fixes and fixes only

Any and all questions and problems can and will be addressed is the actual thread for NFSFANs ROM Here

The more people keep ignoring the request NOT to ask questions in this thread, the more useless this thread becomes to those looking for a repository of fixes in one place rather than having to dig through the 600+ pages on the ROMs page itself thus turning this thread into something akin to the overcrowded thread there

How To Unlock Your Phone
And Flash A Custom Rom
And Relock Your Vogue
(Following was written by: Detroit_Doug)
First go here and
READ the hell outta it until you have it step by step.
(BTW use the 2.31 unlocker regardless about the GPS thing)
OK, now that you've read that (happy dance time)
Download the 2.31 Unlocker and NFSFANs WinMO 6.5 ROM.
And make sure to download one of the DCD Carrier cabs here
and copy it to your SD card as you may need this after the flashing is done.
(will get back to this tasty morsel later)
OK, now you have an Unlocker and a ROM - now what, hmmmm
Use WinRAR and extract both the files into separate folders,
Press and hold the Power button+Camera Button and Stylus in the reset hole
until the 3 color screen comes up and it says serial,
now plug in your cable and it should change to USB.
Can you taste the rainbow and it is over the land of USB??
Great, now go into the Unlocker folder you created
and doubleclick on the RomUpdateUtility.exe
(going to be called RUU.exe from this point on).
Follow the steps on the desktop monitor.
(You might get some errors about sleep4.exe - dont worry about it)
Just keep hitting enter and it will go away after the 4th or so time.
At some point the program is going to tell you to disconnect the phone,
sounds scary doesn't it, losing the connection and all - dont be,
be a brave little soldier and disconnect it and count to 10,
cant do that, get some help in getting there,
its really that important LOL once you (or your friend)
gets to 10 plug it back in, does it say USB again? good!!
happy dance AFTER you hit a key on the keyboard per the on screen directions.
It's going to eventually reboot, let it and it will be unlocked,
let it start up and do its thing, when its done - go ahead and go back into bootloader mode again
(remember power+camera+stylus twister move you did earlier, its back to that again)
with the cable disconnected and it had better say SERIAL again..
now go ahead and plug in the cable and it should change to USB.
Now go into the ROM folder and double click the RUU.exe here ...
and follow the directions that come up on the screen...
Once its done and the phone reboots, wait...
wait some more..
still keep waiting..
no not yet ...
stop touching it..
it wont help pacing..
just be patient...
oh look an Orange screen,
ok here comes some fun.
Follow the drections to go through the setup,
don't worry about it being too accurate and all as it is about to be erased anyway...
let the autorun happen once windows starts and it will reboot on its own again.
- Yes it really IS a smartphone isn't it. LOL -
OK, as it is booting up again when there is a black screen
- press and hold the red button+green button+stylus in reset hole (known as a Hard reset)
until the screen turns gray - follow the directions again
(save you some time "press the Enter key" thats the big silver button in the center of the buttons LOL)
and when the progress bar moves all the way to the right, press the call key (the green one).
Again, it will restart (told you it was smart) and now go ahead and do the setup
and customizations and do them right this time as your hanging onto them this time
(sounds weird but if you dont hard reset after flashing it,
flying monkeys will swoop in and take your phone and your little dog toto too)
OK, now remember that DCD Carrier Cab, you do, fantastic ..
so to the storage card where you copied it to - you didn't forget that step did you???
good I knew my faith in you would pay off, tap on it and run it.
It will install all the Carrier goodies to make your life easy,
and your sex life better and even improve that certain area of a ..
wait sorry wrong channel again....
just go ahead and tap it, run it and reboot.
**Note from Codybear**
I personally go through the RUU.EXE flash process 2-3 times each time I flash a new rom.
I flash it, and then let customizations run,
and then flash again, let customization run again,
then you guessed it, flash again and customizations run once again.
It's a tad bit lengthy, but due to this process,
I usually don't have any problems that most people do with any roms.
Not sure why it makes a difference, but it does.
**Important**
As pointed out to me by Aaronpoweruser,
I forgot to mention that before flashing this rom,
upgrade your radio to a 3.xx.xx version!!
(It doesn't need to be the latest and greatest version available)
Note on Radio Upgrading By Doug:
"An upgrade is not needed - it can help depending on your carrier,
but its based on a carrier by carrier exceptions.
I'm on Sprint with the 3.42.30 radio with no issues whatsoever
where upgrading to 3.42.50 on some carriers can create problems."
To Get Back To Your Original (Stock) Rom:
It is quite simple.
All you do is go to the htc.com website,
click support,
Click dropdown menu to find your device,
in my case it's: HTC Touch™ (Alltel)
Then click download for the rom upgrade.
and then run the ruu.exe just like you did with the custom rom.
To Flash From MicroSd Card:
(Written By DetroitDoug)
Yes it has to be 2GB or less and formatted FAT32
I always find my original 512MB works perfect for flashing from
as to how to get it to your card...
Extract the ROM you want to use
Find the largest *.NBH file and copy it to your desktop
at the desktop rename it to VOGUIMG.NBH (I believe the caps in naming is important)
Copy that file to the root of your formatted FAT32 2GB or less SD Card
enter bootloader mode and it should go from there.

Titanium Weather step by step fix for NFSFANs V10 ROM (Stock Weather Panel)
(This has been reported to work with other versions of Nfsfan's roms,
and some other versions of Weather panel.
No harm to try, you can always reinstall the original panel again.)
- Download the file as offered HERE
- Extract the zip file to desktop
- Copy the TitaniumWeather.mscr file to your phone (storage card or where ever)
- Click on Start Go into settings>today and under the 2nd tab (ITEMS) disable "Windows Default" (6.5 Interface AKA CHome)
- Use Total Commander to copy from location you saved the file to to the root of \Windows - overwrite if needed or if you are having issues coping it over rename the original file(TitaniumWeather.mscr) to titaniumweather.bak and then copy it over
- Go to settings>today and enable Windows Default (6.5 Interface)
- Go to Weather Tab and in lower right click on Setup
- Select 2nd option (Run full update and exit)
- Wait for full update to occur and scroll through pages all icons should have appeared again (although I had to run the full update twice)
May need to start IE or Opera or whatever browser you use to gain an internet connection first to perform update if you already dont have the option to "connect to the internet automatically" set in your options before attempting the update
(Thanks to 4Thought for this) If your in Canada or other locations just enter in your location code directly in this format: NAM|**|**|****** replacing the * with your location in the SETUP options (Setup>Option 3 (Forcast options/setup) > Option 1 (Zip or Location Code)
an example would be NAM|CA|ON|OSHAWA for Oshawa Canada or NAM|CA|AB|EDMONTON for Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
Or if that doesn't work,
Try this File
Download this file,
Turn Off Titanium (Start>Settings>Today, click Items tab, Uncheck Windows Default, press ok)
Copy file to Windows directory, overwrite if asked.
Turn On Titanium(same steps, just re-check Windows Default)
Then you're good to go.

I also recommend researching either Sashimi or User Customization.
Or better yet, both. They are extremely helpful.
There are more threads out there for User Customization,
But the Sashimi Link is to the "Home" Website.
Other Walkthroughs:
As Reported by mnherky:
"I'm having a problem when i set up active sync to my work exchange server. they require that i have 4 digit pin to unlock the phone. when the phone starts it looks like it is trying to go to the keypad to unlock but only the top bar shows up, the rest of the screen is blank. the only extra thing i install was the touch pal keyboard.
thanks for the help and ROM"
Common fix: "Try not setting up the PIN. Many people have reported problems using a PIN with the new lock screen."
His fix: "It's required by my company in order to set up active sync.
If anyone else is having this issue switching to classic [display] seems to have fixed all the issues.
kind of looks ugly but it works."
Turn GPS On:
(6.1 and 6.5 Compatible)

then go to menu, click use gps.

NFSFAN Dialers
(Written By Jmitr)
NFSFAN has 2 different ROM’s available for our Vogues.
1. Windows Mobile 6.1
2. Windows Mobile 6.5
Both of these ROMS use different dialers, these are listed below:
1. WM 6.1 ROMS GSM Dialer
This dialer is one of the newer ones available.
It features slide to anwser/ignore and other features.
To go into this dialer first I have to list the issues
with GSM dialers on CDMA phones.
• 911 and number codes usually do not work
• Data sessions. In most gsm dialers the data is always active. This causes quite a battery drain
NFSFAN has managed to fix these problems to an extent.
911 works, phone codes cannot be directly dialed but are
found in a folder under systems.
The data is NOT always active,
however the data arrows are “broken” or greyed out.
2. WM 6.5 CDMA Dialer
This is basically the same as the stock dialer that came with your phone.
It may not be “as pretty” as the gsm dialer,
but everything works just like stock.
This is the reason that you will no longer find the
phone codes folder in the 6.5 ROM as there is no need for it.
It is possible to skin a dialer and add colour etc.
This changes the appearance of the dialer
without actually installing a different dialer.
Some people have installed newer dialers in the 6.5 ROM as well.
Just remember the issues with gsm when you do.
You may find your battery depletes quickly (data issue)
or 911 doesn’t work (BAD if you figure that out when you need it!!)
Phone codes Walkthrough
(Written By Jmitr)
• ##778 = ..\Windows\EPST.exe ##778
View/edit phone provisioning (you'll need your phone specific MSL to edit)
Always keep a record of your phone's ESN, MSID, Security, EPST, and M. IP settings in case a flash reprograms your phone.
Run the EPST utility by:
1. Typing ##778 into the dialer Or from the ..\Windows directory you can also directly execute EPST.exe or EPST.lnk
2. If EPST.exe quickly loads and exits, then try a few more times before resetting your phone and trying again.
3. Select VIEW and then record your info. On most versions, the A-Key is blank and will not be displayed. If your phone fails to authenicate with your provider, you will need to call your providers technical support line to get a new A-key. The A-key is not reuseable.
To edit your EPST if you have lost security and data connections:
NOTE: The Verizon MSL is 000000 (six zeros) - you don't need to run getspl.exe for a Verizon phone, skip to step 6.
1. First follow these steps to obtain your phone's MSL unlocking code
2. Obtain getspl.exe
3. execute that on your Titan

• #33284 (debug) = ..\Windows\FieldTrial.exe
Field Trial shows your signal strength in dbm and channel info
What the numbers mean:
Signal strength is a number ranging from roughly -50 to -105 (your phone may show as a positive number). Closer to zero means a better signal, i.e. -
50 (roughly full signal) to -105 (roughly no signal.)
• #3424(diag)
= ..\Windows\DMRouter.exe /DIAG
Diagnostic Mode, required to repair, or configure the Operator service related programs
• #38278 (fuart)= ..\Windows\Fuart.exe Fuart
Enable or Disable Fast UART mode. Resets device after choosing.
A UART is a serial to parallel data converter. I would assume the Vogue uses this mode for serial connections to a PC (USB ect). Because HTC uses this connector for headphones etc it may also affect these.
For Sprint, there's an extra # at the end instead of pressing Send. (ex. ##778#)
If anyone has any additional information please pm JMITR and I will add it to the FAQ.[/QUOTE]

Texts Keep Showing That They're Unread When They're Really Not??? Check This Link Out!!
Coming Soon/Working On:
~I have all DCD Carrier Cabs, but still finding all MMS Cabs, I need the following mms cabs, if you have them or can send me a link to them I'd appreciate it: lusacell, cricket, tnz, uscc, telus, sprint, qwest, bell, appalachain.
*Cabs to remove unused keyboards from sip list.
*Working on mortscript coding to get the opera panel to look into the two different known spots for the bookmark file.
*Change Raphael Bookmarks text in the opera panel, submit me some ideas to change it to, i'll be making cabs!
*Trying to figure out how to launch opera mini using mortscript, it's possible,
just might take a little while if someone doesn't already have the fix someone.
*Trying to fix async killer cab,or find a better one.
~Also I'm going to be working on getting this launcher panel I have seen,
It allows up to 18 programs and I want to make sure it is fully compatible with the other panels!
~Softkey registry locations so you can change them on all panels, and maybe eventually make a user friendly program.
*Will note 6.1 compatible cabs/information in this faq in attempt to hold off 6.1 users till they finally upgrade to 6.5.
*Attempt to make this list smaller, it's growing faster than I can do everything.
*Look into custom fonts, write walkthrough.
*Gps For Carriers Section
*=Going to try and get these done this weekend.
And there's more that are not listed here.
~Mortscript to start a data connection and run Lastfm program, then when you close last fm, it shuts off the data connection.
~Waiting on registry info to get twitter panel working
~Problem told to me in PM(Just my personal note to remind myself)
NOW WORKING ON/HOPE TO HAVE DONE IN THE NEXT DAY OR TWO:
Working on making the mortscript file to make it look into two diff locations with the already given code,
async fix,
then opera mini thing with opera panel,
then the keyboard cleanup thing.
This Summer:
Going to build these programs:
1. Pill Identifier that uses drugs.com's pill identifier information,
and will relay all their information to the phone in a mobile friendly format.
2. They have facebook sync programs to sync pictures,
I'm going to try and see if it's possible to sync friend's pictures from myspace.
I really have to update this. hahahaha

I know it!
There are already some out that are showing alot of potential.
I'm personally going to work on some titanium ones here in the near future.
But have a few other things I want to do before I play with titanium.
Edit:
i have a bunch of themes but have to edit the titanium cpr info within the cabs,
they overwrite the existing cpr's and it erases certain panels.
Edit:
@ryudo423 down below,
thank you.
There were others that helped out with bits and pieces.
I just wanted to give back to this community,
and didn't know where to start,
and I love nfsfan's roms,
so I said why not since he has 10982750913745714 million pages of posts in his rom thread.
Wow codybear this is just awsome thanx a ton.i'm sure it's going to help many people.u rock!
Will the fix cab work for the updated version of Titanium Weather ("Showaco's Titanium Weather v3.1 Ported to QVGA as v3.1.2 by mnemonique")?

Hi fellows,
Well, it seems that the work is done! CREDITS to HELLONASTY and ERVIUS!!!!
We would like to invite you to try our new rom MARY 3.3.1 Super Lite, based on the latest available English language Operating System (WM6 5.2.1933 Build 18533.0.7.0)
80MB storage!
Aprox. 30MB free RAM!
This rom is so light, that if you leave your pda in the wind, it will fly away!
MARY 3.3SL - TO BE FLASHED ON WINDOWS XP: http://rapidshare.com/files/66073071/ROM_MARY_V3_3_SL.rar
MARY 3.3SL - TO BE FLASHED ON WINDOWS VISTA: http://rapidshare.com/files/66128715/ROM_MARY_V_3_3_SL_vista.rar
MARY 3.3.1SL - TO BE FLASHED ON WINDOWS XP: http://rapidshare.com/files/66603150/ROM_MARY_v_3_3_1_SL.rar (01.11.2007)
MARY 3.3.1SL - TO BE FLASHED ON WINDOWS VISTA: http://rapidshare.com/files/66770044/ROM_MARY_V_3_3_1_SL_vista.rar (01.11.2007)
Pros: HIGHEST STORAGE 80MB, A LOT OF FREE RAM AND SPEED!!!!
Cons: It's up to you to let us know about it...don't forget to give us your feedback! Only like that we can improve the quality!
Changelog 3.3SL: Complete clean ROM! Nothing more to add...she's completely naked !!!!!!
Changelog 3.3.1SL (01.11.2007):
FLASH THIS ROM WITH THE MEMORY CARD INSERTED!!!!
-Complete clean ROM! Even more naked !!!!!!
-Even faster than previous release
-Working Smart Dialing
-Configurable MMS
-Colors and themes now corrected
-Windows Media Player, now fully functional
-Removed some useless files and folders (Battery Status Folder still inside...to be corrected on a previous release. If you install Battery Status-see link bellow-then the software will use that folder, so, only for those who don't install this application, this folder would be useless. Anyway, I suggest you install it)
-Smother speed
-Other small optimizations
-To enable the "H" icon for HSDPA, please install Schap's Advanced Config Tool (find the link bellow). However, even if you don't see the icon, HSDPA will be enabled if you activate it in Connections Settings.
This time, I propose to make something focused essentially on speed, stability, memory and storage rather than spending time with aesthetics.
So, inside you'll find basically only the Operating System, with its' basic functionalities. All the rest, you can install by yourself, according to your needs.
It doesn't make sense to fill storage, with applications that you will never need.
Concerning the aesthetics, there are a lot of themes out there...it's just a matter of searching!
I also want to share with you, the best way to make your updates of firmware, as most of the bugs that we find, are the result of a bad-flash. Most of the times, of you re-flash, the bugs disappear.
To avoid this, this is how I flash my roms:
1. Hard Reset your device, pressing OK at the end
2. Before it starts rebooting, make another Hard Reset, but now don't press the OK button. Instead, remove the battery!
3. Wait 1 minute. While you wait, remove the storage card and the SIM card as well
4. Put the battery inside the pda again.
5. Press the buttons Camera + Power + Reset (with the pen, on the bottom of the pda) until you see the screen with color strips
6. Insert usb cable
7. Start flashing the device, as you always do.
8. As soon as it reaches 100% on the screen of the pda, it becomes black for a couple of seconds. Then, make a hard-reset, and press ok.
9. Make another hard reset, but now, but now don't press the OK button. Instead, remove the battery!
10. Wait 1 minute
11. Re-insert the battery, memory card and SIM card
12. With the pen, press the reset button on the bottom of the pda until it starts.
13. Have FUN!!
P.S - I WON'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THAT RESULT ON USING THIS ROM OR FLASHING PROCESS. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
If you still have problems flashing, I advise you to see this page: http://www.trinityguides.info/
For those who loose their WIFI settings after a softreset, please follow these instructions (thank's dta1974):
[!] For prevent password and account dissapearing u should (you should make this procedure immediately after first soft reset ):
1. Set up your connection settings
2. Open IExplorer / Set up Internet connection / Open some internet page
3. Click Disconnect button to close internet connection
4. Hold power button and turn off your phone
5. Power on your phone.
After that procedure your password wont disapear. I think that you should repeat the same for mail account (set up mail account / try to send or recieve your mail / hold disconnect button / turn off your phone)
We hope that this meets to your expectations!!!

Give some coins to the homeless guys you find on the way to work or school !!!!

No, it won't be inside the rom. However, there will be links to the most popular softwares (cab). In this case, each one of us can install only what we need
This is the idea behind: have a system looking exactly how you like, and not how the cookers like. Have the software you think it's important, and not the software that the cooker thinks is important.
Bye
P.S- Does anyone have Microsoft Office splitted in cabs: one cab for Word, another for Powerpoint, another for Excel and another for One Note?
Having this, we can install only the office applications that we need!! If anyone has it, please post the links.

hmmmmmmm, as Homer would say
waiting with bated breath! This sound very interesting!!!
But just how lite is lite?
Nice one, would be cool if *someone* made a GUI to automagically download new base roms, packages(from a central repository). You would download the GUI, select base, packages, mui files(?), press 'Cook', flash(SD Card method allowed).

Just to inform that there is already a ROM like that from Sammy Deluxe:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324804
Of course if this is what the cook want, then it's great to have a nice and clean ROM , but then again, we cannot complaint if the cooker make HIS ROM with a lot of apps.
I hope this release can be the best of all, after all it is made by a PORTUGUESE 'dude'

Hi,
That's the difference between previous roms and this one: the previous roms were roms made for the cooker, and then he shared it with us.
This rom, is not about what the cooker likes, but instead, about making it 99% customizable.
That's the magic word: CUSTOMIZABLE
Bye
RELEASED!!!!
See first post!!!
HAVE FUN!!!
Some tips to cookers to obtain this free storage?
Nice, will try asap.
Has anyone read my previous post? I can provide storage&bandwidth if anyone's willing to create that 1-click kitchen Í described(it could support various rom&pkg repositories, I'd host one for sure).
Dia Duit ROM v1.7.0 final is out
for keyboards installation see bottom keyboard note
for latest news/changes take a look here
DOWNLOAD :
thanks to myself for original mirror: jump
MAIN FEATURES :
Based on latest 2.11.70.1 (from Orange, removed Orange stuffs)
Diamond Manila TF3D 2.1 + new driver set from Topaz, ported some basic Leo packages, etc...
LZX compressed rom... 130Mb free main space after fresh installation
Removed the annoying Ms welcome & manual screen calibration after every upgrade/flash/hard-reset, now is pre-configured so don't take care anymore
sUC (aka suiller's UC) is included (detailed sUC review/instructions) with it of course all Dia Duit features: speed profile selection, automatic backup (favourite manila people too), gps profile selection, planned auto-reboot, ramdisk, mobile upx (upxlist.txt), personal tweaking (by reg files now) + all the "safe" battery/speed tweaks I collected in several years, 3/4 rows selection, mail + attachments & documents moved to "Internal Storage", etc... note: the rom is fully UC/UC2 compliant too
Modded smooth violet buttons in keypad, commmanager, calculator & usbtopc applications, menu enhance
Connection Setup is NOT included, you can find 3 versions in extra cab repository (at top page): 1st from 2.00 rom (China included), 2nd from 2.03 (China NOT present) & the 3rd is the Topaz porting; install one of them like a standard cab (put always in your CAB folder); if you install/uninstall separately remember to restart to see changes
Steps to proceed with this ROM installation (only 1st time) :
before flash read here carefully all news related to sUC (because is included & active)
download latest rom from one of the mirror specified at top page and look in my signature for a fast upgrade procedure
after rom installation sUC will start asking you: configure general speed & GPS profiles; remove ActiveSync time change queue (stop popup every 5 min); left/right softkey configuration; CAB & CABi + REG + EXE + CPY installation/execution (as mentioned above) + upx compression phase, then choose backup method & eventually load a restore, restore previous saved Start Menu and for finish reboot to apply changes
then you can re-organize shortcuts in your "\windows\Start Menu" directory to fit your needs, then run the script "backupStartMenu", this will make a copy of your "final" start menu directory, useful to preserve your original Start Menu structure (in this way it can be restored automatically on next flash)
the last important folder (always under "Backup and Restore" directory) is "pimbackup", under this directory will be saved automatic pim backups during night (contacts/sms/call logs/et cetera)
some notes to know :
I don't like to get out every time the stylus, in my way the phone should be easily used with just one hand, so this rom is designed, where possible, to be used just with fingers: vertical bar is fatter, icons are more spaced & system font is bigger
pimbackup is enabled to make scheduled (automatic) backups every day at 4.00AM, remember for 1st to make a restore at 1st installation (a menu will presented at 2nd boot for this)
to speed up a bit the whole system & get off ActiveSync popping up every 5 minutes answer "OK" when asking to remove ActiveSync time change queue (of course ActiveSync will work normally when connected trough usb cable) & remember also to disable automatic checks (from AS application select Menu, then Schedule & put both to Manual, close tapping X & launch recover ram script... this will close automatically AS & will clean the queue)
about upx compression only exe files coming from cab installation can be compressed, existing exe files (cooked in the rom) can't be touched
I strongly suggest to upgrade your radio version too (I'm currently using 1.13.25.24, anyway find your best), 03 & 05 are really outdated, if you don't know where find new/good/tested radios download always at CAB repository (at top page or in my signature)
DO NOT remove the (automatic created) hibernation file "SwapImgDoNotRemove" because it's a copy of your cache, NOR remove files inside Ramdisk (the original cache) & neither remove MAIL folder under "Internal Storage\Backup and Restore" because from V05 mails are stored there
CAB installation is made seeking alphabetic sort, so keep it in mind when installing cabs that need a specific sequence
keep in mind that many cabs to work properly need to be installed into main memory (so not CABi)
CABi installation isn't perfect & doesn't work with languages different from ENG/USA, it work at 100% with simple cabs such as games, sometimes it fails on complex cab (license accept & various boring confirmation... such as iGO)
to restore the boot image (splash) to the original one (all black) simply download & install this package
special keyboard note: there is ONLY ms-keyboard as default, this because any keyboard set takes a lot of memory & registry becomes fatter, so install just the one you prefer (look always at repository below or in my signature)... so for example you can choose between FingerKeybd (very nice, download from XDA & here a simple guide to restore automatically after every flash) or Rhodium_EzInput (add Rhodium_EzEngine to have also T9 support... this T9 library works also with FingerKeybd) & above all remember that must installed during 1st setup, so don't install manually but copy your cabs in the CAB folder
WHY ALL THIS PROCEDURE?? in few words... I was very tired to re-install everything from scratch after a new installation/flash... so I thought about an easy way to have a fast & real "restore" after every flash
bye,
davide
ps: dia duit in gaelic means "good day"
Hm, this looks very interesting !
Looking forward to test your ROM !
it does look intresting. 1.96, optimized png and wav, and new drivers is what im looking forward to. TF3D version sticks out though, 1.2.345 is current, i thought maybe a newer version whould be included.
On your site : ROM_Diat_Duit_v01.diamimg.nbh - size: 82Mb
It's for test and it's : V1.96.710 ??
Thx for you futur rom ;-)
Seems interesting,but i didn't understand a thing:i can install my cabs in the "old way" too?
I explain:i usually flash the rom and then install all programs...can i do this with your rom or not?

no no that version isn't "newer"... that version is different because isn't native for diamond but it was adapted (from raphael if I remember well) but has some (small) bugs, the last one for diamond is 1.1.34575..., anyway there is no need to use the adapted one ver 1.2 because benchmarks speak clearly, there aren't significant speed improvements

well, opera wasn't included for 2 reasons, the 1st one because many don't like it, they prefer skyfire for example, the 2nd because the version included in this original rom was a bit outdated, so you can download from here the latest beta version of Opera mobile, I'm using it from 2 days and it works very well

Hi,

nice addons and feels very fast.

HI,
what is a "Microsoft null Ethernet Miniport Driver"?
The word "null" sound a bit strange..
what do you mean for "close in the normal way" ?
thank you,
davide
Hello,
I'vejust installed it and everything is working fine... And quick!
Gratulations for your work!
I've noticed that the icons from some programs are being showed more then once.
I'll continue testing it and give you more feedback.
it's a virtual driver, it can be used by the system for network emulations, like for ex vpn

update (!!!new!!!):
The weather-bug is solved!!! Now every i780-user could use weather information in the "windows-default"/"Titanium" plugin in. Remember, it only works with wm6.5. The problem was the resolution in the used cpr-file. i modified the Titanium_320x320.cpr and now the weather plugin runs!
Just follow the steps, and you will have a really nice weather plugin in the standard wm6.5 today panel:
1. flash a wm6.5 rom on your i780
2. be sure to be able to use wifi or grps, because the weather plugin needs data from the net
3. Disable Titanium (windows default plugin) in Settings -> Today -> Items
3. Install Showaco's Titanium Weather - QVGA Version - by mnemonique v3.a (link below)
4. overwrite the existing Titanium_320x320.cpr (\windows) with my modified file (link below)
5. soft reset the device.
6. enable the Titanium
7. Scroll up to titanium weather v3 in Today's Panel and on the panel to start Setup or
8. Select/Click Setup in right soft key.
9. Highlight 3) Configure Forecast Options/Setup, Click OK
10. Configure Zip or Location Code | Temperature Units
info: find your location code in the txt-file below, f.e.:
City Name = "Bremen, DE" Location = "EUR|DE|GM005|BREMEN" Country = "Germany"
then the location code to be entered is: EUR|DE|GM005|BREMEN
11. after you've configure the settings, Select Cancel in right soft key to display Main Menu
12. Highlight 2) Run Full Update and exit
have fun, regards dennito
2be?olved:
Here i´ll place community questions about the Titanium-Plugin (especially i780 related), which you post me and couldn´t be answered yet - may be you know the solution? I´ll post the solution and the publisher name after you post me the answer via PM.
1. everytime i got a voicemail-notification (via sms from my mailbox), the voicemail-panel doesn´t show anything, still "no new voicemails", what to do? (asked by dennito)
Hint-list:
1. Wrong picture-Path:
there is no registry part editable but a very simple way to make your pictures on the storage card visible in the today panel.
solution: just rename your existing folder on the storagecard where the fotos are in f.e.: from "my pictures" to "pictures" - or create a new folder "pictures" on the storage card and put your picture files in there. that´s all - now all your photos will be shown in the today panel - have fun!
Needfull-Things4W6.5:
I think it´s time to expand this thread, i offer a small bundle (see zip file below) of needfull things to make the daily usage with the wm6.5 rom´s a little bit more easy/comfortable. The offered programs i am using day4day are:
1. autolock: this tool locks the todayscreen automatically if you press the power-button once
2. a jpg-file in 320x320 realllllly nice for the daily background (thx mascian)
3. comm manager: the ported htc-comm manager to expand the (bad) build in connection manager
4. honeycomb startmenue: the selection style in the start menue will look a bit smarter (thx mascian)
5. ibattery: a really nice battery indicator
6. soft-reset: just a small tool to make a reset without anything more
7. SRS-WOWHD: amazing tool (wm6.5 modified), which will really upgrade your sound-quality! important to know:first install the cab, second you have to install the driver with f.e. resco file explorer, the standard file explorer from windows won´t allow the registry installation - after install, reset, then modify it as you like it in start->settings->system!
8. resco file explorer (trial): very good (touchable) file explorer
9. FingerSuite: very usefull app which replaces standard menu and messagebox for our windows mobile devices - top! link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459125
10. Titanium Customizer: simple but usefull app to arrange the panels in the wm6.5-today-plug; link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497232
have fun!

As reported by pocketnow.com, you can always count on xda developers.
Note that this only allow you to add remove item, not customized the picture album folder and weather etc.
Continuing our reports of the "Windows Mobile 6.5 isn't even out yet but..." XDA Developers wrote an application called Titanizer, based on early leaks, that will allow users to customize the Home Screen of the upcoming Operating System, called Titanium.
Titanizer requires Flash 7 installed and once executed (needs no installation) can be used to disable or move around tabs in the Titanium interface the same way it was possible to customize TouchFLO 3D tabs.
1. post updated
would be nice to get some feedback, how it´ll work for everyone
Dear dennito,
for me the weather update works after following your description. I'm using krizky82's WM 6.5 ROM. Just installed the weather plugin, so will report back later if I can see any bug.
Thanks for your fix on titanium weather,
Best regards,

I am also runing krizky82's ROM but I couldn't overwrite the file in the windows directory. What is wrong??
This is 96dpi right? Is it possible to have a 128dpi WM6.5 ROM for i780?
Try this (as attached), it looks much better on 96dpi, just replace this file in "\Windows" directory

Here is the official thread for these ROMs;
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=75310&view=findpost&p=1900015
Here is Dynamites previous version ROM release thread;
http://3ppc.net/forum/showthread.php?p=95796
Initial Solution
Alright, a kind member of "htcgeeks forum" mzel has pointed me in the right direction of how to obtain a 4pda account.
Best method is to copy and paste small selections of text at a time into for example google translator. So just copy box titles for example to find out which box to type in login name and which is password, etc..
When accessing the create account page I made sure I was in the original Russian version of the website, not translated.
The 'Capthca' authentication test is actually a mathmatical equation. If you look very carefully in the middle of the box you will see what looks like 2 sets of 2 digit numbers. Something like this; sfakdhffdf33dskfjkf44ksdfkd ignore all those other numbers around the box they are just background noise.
In this example you take the 33 and 44 and then add them together. The answer to the 'Capthca' question would be 77. Each time the numbers will be different but you just follow this same method.
Once you have created your account and been through the email verification you can download the files straight away.
The A02 ROMs have an 8MB pagepool which is a lot more than LennySh ROMs. You might like to try different pagepool sizes to find the best for your liking. Here is a pagepool editor that is already setup to work with these A02 Roms:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4780661#post4780661
Also, the A02 RTM Rom is like a "Stock Dell Edition" as LennySh would say. The OS version is 5.2.19965 build 19965.1.2.3 This is quite nice because LennySh stopped creating "Stock Dell Edition" well before this version. Makes things a little cleaner for those users like me who wish to add their own program choices via UC to custom our install.
Cheers,
Dan

I sent a PM to Dynamite on 4pda to show my respect and thank him for supplying us with these great ROMs.
Someone else might like to make some more mirrors?
Please, comment on your experiences.
update the graphic driver??
Hey DKing,
I translated this info from Dynamite on 4pda.
Quote:
Since Roma Series A02 and then built a modified driver illumination with low minimum level of brightness, fix loss of contrast of the screen, fix the bug with drawing of cascading menus from DKing
Since Roma Series A05 integrated bugfixed driver graphics accelerator, allowing the gradient menu are displayed correctly.
Here is change log for A02 v7.0 RTM:
Quote:
1. Fixed an issue with drawing of menus (no gradient) of Dking
2. Fixed an issue with the contrast
3. off clock display in the taskbar
4. Modified wood backlight Dking
5. Bluetooth Explorer (BTFTP)
6. Print via Bluetooth (BTPP)
7. Outlook Enhancement
8. ModemIS
Here is change log for A02 v8.0 RTM:
Quote:
1. .NET CF 3.5
2. Bluetooth Security
Here is change log for A02 v8.0 TOUCH:
Quote:
1. Aximsite WirelessPower (instead of the standard WirelessPower)
2. Bluetooth Explorer (BTFTP)
3. EnlargeStartMenu
4. FTouchFlo
5. ModemIS
6. Outlook Enhancement
7. WkTask (instead of the standard launcher Home)
8. Print via Bluetooth (BTPP)
9. SoftKeyApplet
10. x50Mix
11. Bluetooth Security
So does that mean we could easily add your graphic driver to his A02 V8.0 English ROMs? (The A05 is Russian).

Dan.
Information about A02 V8.0 Touch ROM
Translated from official site
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=75310&st=520&p=1900015&#entry1900015
FTouchFlo, WkTask disabled by default.
(When ROM first installed you will need to manually enable these)
FTouchFlo before calibration screen unforgettable off.
(X51v will lock up if you run 'screen alignment' program with FTouchFlo enabled. You have to disable FTouchFlo before running 'screen alignment' program. If your X51v does lock up then a normal reset will free it back up.)
In a few words about FTouchFlo, TOOLS adds touch scrolling in all programs and menus, if the program does not require touch scrolling, in settings FTouchFlo can make this program a list of programs that will not work scrolling.
(Can create a list of programs where FTouchFlo will not interfere)
With strokes can quickly launch any 4 programs installed by the user.
Stroke default:
left to right - PIE
right to left - Messaging
top-down - WMP
bottom-up - x50Mix
(I have tried this and it does work. You can change what programs are activated by what movement)
EnlargeStartMenu - increased menus and the Start menu, ie It is possible to dispense almost without using the stylus.
(You can enable or disable large fonts for Start Menu and internal Program Menus, similar effect to WM6.5 in a way)

I think yes, it's possible and should be quite easy. But I think it's almost unneeded, because those ROMs already have GWES fixed that allows OS to work with buggy driver properly. So to have some useful effect (in stability), we should find and embed there original (non-patched) GWES, then use fixed video driver.
This just in...
Here is message I just received from Dynamite:
Quote:
Thank you for using my ROMs and thanks for mirrors
But I have to disappoint: the work on the new ROMs turned off because of outdated drivers, which in fact has not been updated since WM5.
Partly solve this problem is possible if you can find a Board Support Package (containing the source code drivers, and so the hardware-dependent software) for the X51v, but it is practically impossible
That level of help is way out of my league.
Problems with WiFi?
I don't know if anyone has problems with WiFi with these ROMs or not. I had a problem getting a connection but found a solution.
I installed the attached cab file WiFiService.CAB
Performed a normal/soft reset.
Then WiFi connected no problem.
Maybe might help anyone else who notices a problem with WiFi.
This only works for Dynamite A02 WM6.1 ROM!!!
Ok everyone,
I have now tested enough Pagepool sizes with Dynamites A02 ROM to make a suggestion.
*Try setting a custom Pagepool of 4MB*
I tried 8MB, 6MB, 5MB, 4.8MB, 4MB, 3MB. Trust me 4MB is the best option!!!
Performance will not really show up synthetically, ie; SKTools benchmarking.
*But in real world usage it becomes apparent*
I can guarantee that the X51v will feel 2x more responsive and faster!!!
I noticed 3D and software gaming ran smooth even in huge action sequences.
Screen tap response is stellar and you go through menus and file exploring quick as lightning.
File scrolling long lists like Windows folder is nice and smooth and I have not had problems with screen taps registering as double taps.
Hand writing in Notes was fluid and felt accurate/natural. Scrolling while viewing PDF files doubled in performance!!!
Also you will go from 28MB free up to 32MB free which is same free RAM as the older Football A07.
*So give it a go and tell me if you agree!*
This maybe the final ultimate WM6.1 we will see on our X51v?
Pagepool editor
It's pretty easy to do once you get use to it.
Here is a tool that can help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=536024
Here are instructions;
1.) Click "Load ROM"
2.) Select the Dynamite A02 WM6.1 .nb0 file
3.) Select the Dell X51v WM6.1 A02 (Dynamite) ROM from the list
4.) Select the 4MB pagepool size from the drop down box
5.) Click the CheckBox "Generate CRC File"
6.) Click "Run!"
7.) After the program has run, Click "OK" in the popup dialog box, then click "Exit"
8.) Transfer the updated files to your (FAT32 formatted) SD card, and flash your device
Simple as that!
Want to try alternate Bluetooth Stack?
I have made some slight modifications to the original Widcomm/Broadcom Bluetooth Stack that is from here:
http://www.mobilitysite.com/boards/...widcomm-axim-x50v-x51v-state-development.html
What I have done is modify it so that it intergrates perfectly with this Dynamite A02 ROM. It is not intended to be
used on any other ROM, so if you attempt to use on another ROM and notice problems/errors that is why.
If you want to try this out then here are the instructions;
1. Download the .zip file with 3x .cab files (would not attach to this xda post for some reason) can be found here;
http://forum.htcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=19569&postcount=80 or http://www.mediafire.com/?mgcmbxmez5i
2. Install the AWirelessPower_v101.cab
3. Install the BTSpeedSwitch.cab
4. Install the BBluetoothStack_v05.cab
5. It will ask to reset when completed, just click ok.
6. After reboot just turn the bluetooth on and off once by using the *taskbar tray icon* only, not hardware button.
This is just to activate the change to new Bluetooth Stack.
Need help? Follow these instructions.
01. Click on *taskbar tray icon* and select 'Bluetooth Manager'.
02. Select 'Menu' and then 'Paired Devices'.
03. Click 'Add' button.
04. Now click button to the right of the 'Device' box.
05. Your Bluetooth equipment should appear, select it's icon.
06. Now you should be able to enter a 'Passkey'.
07. Use a four digit number and press 'return' on the onscreen keyboard.
08. For example; If connecting with PC your PC should have a window pop up.
09. Enter the same four digit number into PC pop up window box.
10. It may take a couple of different trys to get that done.
11. Now if we have our devices paired we can click 'ok' to close.
12. Back at 'Bluetooth Manager' main screen click 'New'
13. Best method to create a connection between Bluetooth equipment is to let the X51v explore the bluetooth
device itself!!!
14. Select 'Explore a Bluetooth device' option.
15. Click on the paired device icon that we made earlier.
16. The X51v should now be searching the device for capabilities.
17. You can choose to have security turned off or on, I turn it off myself for a2dp, but if using bluetooth to share
an internet connection or transfering files then you may want to use the security encryption.
18. Sometimes it won't explore the device on first attempt, so just click the 'Back' button and then click on the paired device again.
19. Ok, now you should have a list of services to choose from.
20. For this example, I am clicking on 'A2dp SNK Service'.
21. Now you should be back at the 'Bluetooth Manager' main screen.
22. You should now have an icon for the connection we have just made.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
23. All we do to activate the connection from now on is just hold the stylus down on the icon we have made and
select 'Connect'. Makes it easy to get connection, now that we have done all the hard work.
24. You can click the 'Active Connections' tab to see connections that are currently turned on.
25. Hold stylus down on the icon we made and select 'Status' from the drop down menu. Here you can see signal
strength and data transfered.
26. To close a connection hold down stylus on the icon we made and select 'Disconnect' or you could press the
X51v wireless hardware button to turn Bluetooth off from the 'wireless Power' aplet.
Notes;
To use with UC sdconfig installation you need to modify your sdconfig.txt file to look like this:
LOCK: Disabled
HIDE:Enabled
CAB: \SD Card\AWirelessPower_v101.cab
CAB: \SD Card\BTSpeedSwitch.cab
CAB: \SD Card\BBluetoothStack_v05.cab
HIDE: Disabled
LOCK:Enabled
Of course you may already have other .cabs listed as well, just make sure you put these ones at the end of the
list in this order because of the 'reset after installation' built into bluetooth stack installation .cab file.
Also this line at the top of the sdconfig.txt file;
HIDE:Enabled
And this line the bottom of the sdconfig.txt file;
HIDE: Disabled
Are very important. This is also because of the 'reset after installation' window at the end of the bluetooth stack
installation. If the UC install window is not 'hidden' then you will not be able to see the 'reset' window or click on it.
Also, you don't need to add 'RST: Reset' at the very bottom of the sdconfig.txt file as it would now be redundant.
Extra Tool;
The included BTSpeedSwitch.cab it is just a speed switcher for the bluetooth if you wanted to slow the
connection down to 460800bps. Only needed for troubleshooting purposes if you had an unstable connection.
Which I have never had with this Bluetooth Setup.
*All program icons of these Bluetooth installations can be found in the menu Start/Programs/WirelessPower*
***Note that 'Bluetooth Explorer' is part of Microsoft Bluetooth Stack and not Broadcom Bluetooth Stack***

Others and myself have noticed certain bugs and quirks with Makuu's 6.1 A09 523F, some are even noted on the official thread. It is possible for some users not to have picked up on these bug and quirks yet, due to everyone using their device for different purposes. But they are there and have not or can't be solved without recooking the ROM. There is no point working from a buggy base if you have another slightly older bugless base to work from.
At the moment their are no known bugs or quirks with Dynamites A02 RTM ROM. This is why others and myself are tweaking this ROM to create the perfect WM6.1 setup. Don't be fooled by this thread, this is my secondary thread I use to report to another audience. All communication I have with the community regarding Dynamites A02 ROMs are done on another forum elsewhere.
Unless another newer WM6.1 ROM with no bugs or quirks is released then Dynamites A02 RTM ROM should become the perfect WM6.1 ROM. We have already got the performance up on it and is fast enough to play games with no frame drops while sending audio output via a2dp over bluetooth.
Sorry no offense against you or this thread, only wanted to know if this ROM has advantages over the newer makuu release.. Thank you for the explanation!
No worries.
All cool... Sorry if I come across aggressive, I just don't get much luv here on xda. So yeah, I feel like I'm always having to defend myself. Maybe if there was a 'Thanks' system here then people would see that there are some that do know what they speak instead of us all being cowboys. But hey, I cut my teeth here, so I will continue to post here.
Cheers.
Dynamite A02 v8.0 RTM ROM with 4MB pagepool
Due to fact that I am relatively sure 4MB is best pagepool size for this ROM and that some users are requesting an already changed ROM to be uploaded.
Please find attached a Dynamite A02 v8.0 RTM ROM with 4MB pagepool.

Please if anyone would like to add and post some mirrors that would be appreciated.

Wow, your first post!
Anyhow, usually it would be nice to have more/clearer details of your question, or a screenshot showing what you are refering too.
Ok, I think you are refering to the 'softkeys' at the bottom of the screen. The issue you have is nothing to do with this ROM at all and cannot be modified directly in this ROM so either you have modified the registry or you are using a 3rd party software which has caused this problem.
To solve this problem I suggest a utility called "Softkeys Control Panel Applet".
With this utility you can change them to whatever you want.
http://www.dotfred.net/SoftkeyAppletEx.htm
Cheers.
(How did you know it was my first post? Is there some big red number somewhere??) Yes, I'm mostly a reader, not a poster.
Anyway, the 'softkeys' usually have "calendar" on the left and "contacts" on the right, so I don't know why mine has "contacts" on both sides. This was after the fresh ROM flash. I'll look into the applet.
Thanks. (And a great, BIG thanks to all of you super-brains who like to dig into this stuff and make it great for the rest of us.)

I have been working on this little mortscript for a while now, constantly updating as I find more things to add. It has been one of my most valuable and timesaving tools which I cook into all of my ROMs. It allows a user to backup many items which you would have to input and change manually upon first boot. This saves me a LOT of time as I flash a new ROM just about daily. It also has the ability to autorestore all items if cooked into the ROM. I am not a programmer, so if anyone is interested in turning this into an actual program rather than mortscript please let me know Also, I am no mortscript wizard, so if anyone would like to have at the original to make it better go for it This software will create a folder in root of Storage Card named "Phone Backup", so it may not work if you do not have a Storage Card (does not support localization currently). Also, take note that although I use this quite frequently I do not guarantee it to work fully for you. I will try to work with you to find solutions when possible.
Without the help of Noonski, and many others this script could not exist. So thank you very much
You might be thinking "What do I need this for if I can use SASHIMI or UC or any of the other available autoconfig programs?". This app is not meant to be a replacement for any of these programs, rather it will work hand-in-hand with most of these to backup and restore items easily that you might not think about. It will also autoload manila in 6.5 ROMs and load your prefered wallpaper, weather, program tab preferences, and much more.

Cab and OEM attached below. OEM is for Visual kitchen, Legacy package can be provided upon request. Mortscipt 4.2 or newer may be required although it does use a mortrunner which should be able to run the file just fine as far as I know.If you find this software useful, consider a donation to motivate the author to improve it

All Previous Changelogs(most recent will be in post #1)
UPDATE: 10-22-09 FlashBack 0.6
-Added program tab backup and autorestore
-Added MySpace profile(Microsoft MySpace)
-Added some more Game and Software items
-Added Zensor autorestore and autoload(autoload still needs some work)
UPDATE: 8-27-09 FlashBack 0.5
Uploading latest package from my kitchen. I will put together a cab soon, but for now you can use the flashback script from the package and overwrite original
Changelog:
Made some minor modifications as well as some optimization to reduce errors when restoring.
-Added Wifi Locations backup under software
-Added double check for manila autorestore. This way if you have non manila ROM It will not try to load manila.
For this to work correctly you need to add the following lines to your manila app.reg:
Code:
;FlashBack support
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\FlashBack]
"ManilaExists"=dword:1
NOTE: Make sure to disable weather restore or delete the database when switching manila builds
Still taking further requests and hoping for some help from the real mort pros
UPDATE: 8-3-09
-Some fixes for missed lines
-Fixed G-Alarm(misspelled something causing no backup)
-added Facebook backup(not fully tested)
-added world clock cities
-Changed backup of manila files to use INI
-If you have cooked an older version into your ROM, be sure to use the newest FlashBack to backup Manila data again. The new AutoRestore script relies on the new INI files.
-Any more software requests?
UPDATE: Huge update.
Added:
-more personal settings(Buttons)
-Tools*
-Manila Wallpaper and Weather(tested .png and .jpg wallpapers)
-Made a package which will restore all saved settings when cooked into ROM.
-Added option to Auto restore. Auto is enabled by default. Look under tools.
-Added support for some builds of Opera
-Added option to Auto load Manila after Flash as oposed to "Windows Default" AKA Titanium. I prefer Manila, so if you enable the option and its cooked in you can have it right after flash.
-Prepared for adding program registrations
Check it out and let me know if it is all working for you. Please note that I will not be held responsible for any loss of data(should that somehow occur, but dont know how it would). Attaching Visual Package and cab. Legacy package will come soon. Edit: Legacy is here, but not sure if it works as I dont use legacy. Please report back for others.

EDIT: The "RestoreAll" mortscrpt in packages has an extra quotation mark on line 29. Remove the first one before cooking. Should look like this:
Code:
regwritedword("HKLM","Software\FlashBack","Finished",1)
as opposed to this:
Code:
regwritedword([B]"[/B]"HKLM","Software\FlashBack","Finished",1)
This is not a needed step, but it is to double check that Restoreall does not run more than once. There is provision in the script for it to delete the link from startup as well.
Another note: Some features still need some more work to function properly. This is all trial and error as I have to find all the appropriate keys for each item. Some have more than one key which needs backed up. Thanks for trying FlashBack
UPDATE: 7-27-09
After some more work with mortscript(and some help from Noonski, thanks bud) I have put together another backup script which backs up personal info such as :
-Bluetooth Partners
-Wifi Networks
-Owner Info
-Volume
-Rings and Alerts
-Backlight settings
It is still a work in progress, but figured I would put it out there for testing and also feedback on what else to add. Noonski showed me the command lines needed to export and import reg, so now it is just a matter of adding the correct keys. I am learning as I go, so bear with me here. Feel free to test this script and add feedback here. If you are skilled with mortscript feel free to take what I have and make it better. Here is the zip with a cab(which has the script, an exe with icon and dotfred's taskmanager to import the keys). I also included the script and exe to make it easier for others to add or change things. Thanks for trying it By the way I call it Flash Back because I flash so manyt ROMs and I just want my info back in an easy way
Information for cooks (required reading)
Sorry I dont have time right now to add all info, but I will try to add the most important stuff real quick.
-The OEM package will install all files to \Windows folder.
-If you use DotFred taskmanager(known as FDCTaskmanager as well) you will want to have a closer look at this package because the .exe file is already included but renamed to df_taskmgr.exe. You can just edit the app.dat file to add your own shortcut to start menu.
-You can also edit the location of FlashBack shortcut in the app.dat. All updates are taken directly from my kitchen, and I install my shortcut to start menu\programs\Tools\Backup.
-There will be a shortcut created in startup folder during cooking
-Autorestore will only run on BootCount=2(to avoid issues with initial customization) and will do a check of reg to make sure it has not already run. There is also a line to delete the shortcut from startup when complete.
-Basically all you need to do as a cook is to include the package that I have provided. I used to have a double check to ensure that manila was present using additional reg key(you will see above in changelog), but have removed the line from the script so it should not be needed. It will check for existence of manila.exe instead.
Known bugs and issues:
Has Email been incorporated into this, or planned for a future release? I'm addicted to flashing, but I need email access, and it's rather annoying to set up 3 accounts every week. Thanks in advance, this sounds like a very useful program.
Nice job!
great, thank you! that is what i was waiting for!
will test it asap and report my opinion.
It's nice to have this application.
can educate on how to correctly install?
I got the error message below
There is no application associated with "FlashBack". Run the application first, then open this file from within the application

Install to device. What language is the ROM? Currently only works on WWE.
re: Email~ I hope to use an xml writer like Makisu(comes w/ SASHIMI). Will be looking into it when I get some time. Same will be needed for Wifi I think.
Until now, i've been SASHIMI-ING everything including reg keys. this is definately a wonderful addition to SASHIMI.
one problem tho... I just tried to backup some settings and it didn't put anything in the Phone Backup dir (working with a Blackstone on Topix 3.1.1 ROM).

i'm using tess v3.6 topaz wwe...
HAving an error after installing... Says it's unable to create the director "/Storage Card/Phone"
Thats prob because my "Storage Card" is named "Internal Storage"
Is there a way to correct this on my end or is it something you have to change in the script?
UPDATE**
Hope this is ok with the dev, if not - my appologies.
I edited the script myself to make it work with "Internal Storage" as opposed to "Storage Card"
If anyone else has this issue just install from the cab as normal, then copy the Flashback.MSCR file from the attached .zip in this post to your device Windows directory and select yes when prompted to replace the existing file. Should work after that.

Definitely ok. This is as open source as open source can be. There is a lot to be done still, so any help is gladly taken
I will try to get into the details this weekend for cooks and enthusiastic folks who would like to add/change things. Does anyone know of an easy way to add localization? ie if storage card is named as something else, I know some things can use code like %Storage% or something. I would have added something so you could select directories, but the AutoRestore relies on using Storage Card for now. Maybe as I figure mnore out I will do a rewrite and clean it up. There is a lot of repeated entries that I should be able to eliminate with variables. I also still need to add xml restore son nI can get more included.
Well, it created the directory by itself, and it also backed up some files.. like the wallpaper and such, but it didn't post reg keys for some reason. that's the only problem i can see right now.
other than that, wonderful idea, wonderful mechanism. thank you so much

it uses .ini for some manila settings rather than exporting entire reg key (taskmanager wont export value or I cant figure it out)

Well, same problem on my phone it creats folders "phone backup/reg keys" but doesn';t save anything in them and I only tried to backup owner info, rings and alerts and also thumbcal & resco settings. I'm running the latest ver. of MortScript I think it's v. 4.3 b. maybe your scripts were written for the last stable version 4.2.

I have updated first post with Taskmanager package. I had thought it was included in the original package, but after downloading it myself and looking I see its not there. df_taskmgr.exe is a required file and I have added the package to post 1. Have also updated the cab file.
Thanks for the feedback, otherwise I would not have found it.
