With activesync browse in your \windows directory and remove touch.dll file.
then reset
Have you added touchflo with a .cab or cooking your rom?
My first solution is good only in case of .cab, if you have cooked your rom, you must rebuild the rom and flash it
Unfortunately I can't browse with activesync, its asks me to unlock the phone.
I installed it from a .cab file.
Unfortunately I had exactly the same problem after hours of tweaking the phone to make it almost perfect. I had to reinstall the ROM again, won't make that make mistake again. Sorry I don't know of a way around this problem.
Yep, I have had to resort to reflashing my phone, fortunately I had backed up my contacts recently, not my photos though - I had some good ones which I'm gutted I lost. The upside is I now have the HTC cube!!
Thanks for your responses!!
i have a custom rom with a 3.42 radio and wm 6.1
if i upgrade my phone to windows mobile 6.5 will i still have my custom rom or would it be all new just like when you flash a new rom?

The only way you would be able to upgrade to WinMO 6.5 would be to flash the phone just like when you flash a custom ROM now
WinMO 6.5 is not an installable app/upgrade like upgrading an application on your phone its the operating system itself
Right now and there are very few ROMS out there for WinMO 6.5 and none for the Vogue at all (Im assuming you have a Vogue as this is where you posted) soon there will be one as there are people working on it currently but what is there is EXTREMELY buggy and almost non-functional for the fact its on a phone and a phone should be able to be used after all LOL
Keep with the Custom ROMS for now and wait, the desire for it has been spoken and the Chefs are a cookin LOL

NFSFan has confirmed that those WM 6.5 ROMS are FAKE. Even if they were real, there would be no point of using them...
The builds are fake indeed. However they do contain a few components of 6.5. None which are worth upgrading for.

Really? What components do they have? Anything from a new today screen or Internet Explorer (like rumored)?
Kinetic scroll (give up TouchFLO and Manila2D), new IE build that supports kinetic scroll. The today screens being posted are fake. They are actually from a smartphone, called HTC Juno. Some asian dude took it out of the Juno, resized the images, and re-arranged the tabs to make it look like the new today screen.
flashing on Vouge
I know this may sound tedious but i have no idea on how to flash any ROM onto my Vouge. Can someone please help. I would love to try out several ROMs and see which one would work best for me.
Thanks in advance
Hey, here is one really good one

Basically here are the steps
Download the 2.31 unlocker
Download the ROM you want to use (my personal preference is this one for a TF2D style or this one for a WinMO 6.5 style interface that has TF2D included to switch back and for - both very stable, fast and clean and the thread is very active for help (especially if your on Verizon or Bell which can have issues)
from there, use WinRAR to extract each file into separate folders
then Put your phone in bootloader mode (press and hold power+camera+stylus in reset until 3-color screen comes up)
At this point at the bottom of the screen it will say Serial, plug it into the USB cable or cradle and it should change to USB
Start the exe in the 2.31 and follow the directions (you may get some errors about sleep4.exe just click on OK as it keeps occuring its a XP/Windows7 64 bit issue if that is what your using)
At the point where it tell you to disconect, unplug the phone from the USB cable and wait (count to 10 or something) then plug it back in, it should have went from USB to SERIAL and now back to USB at that point go ahead and hit any key on your PC and it should continue along
once complete, reboot, allow it to do its thing then reboot and go back into bootloader again during reboot you should see coke 2.31 in the upper left if so your ready to go
plug it into your USB/Cradle again and then go into the ROM folder you extracted the ROM into
Once the screen on your phone says USB again go to the folder and double click on the RomUpdateUtility.exe file and follow the directions again, it may take some time so be paitent
once the phone flashes and reboots, let it run and do its thing to the and reboot itself then (and here is an important step for stability) once it starts up do a hard reset (red+green+stylus in reset hole) hit the enter button (center of D-Pad) it will reflash the phone and then red key (send) when prompted
then go thought the setup again, this time you can actually set things up as your keeping them this time and once things are done and your at the start screen on your phone power off (not reset) the phone and then start it up again - seems doing it this way takes care of alot of little issues that will come up before they can happen
Depending on your carrier be sure to have one of the DCD Carrier Cabs as well especially for the 6.5 ROM as it is a generic ROM and some have reported needing to run the DCD Carrier Cab for the service they use to get on the internet and use GPS and the like

Everything is working smoothly and better than I thought it would have (i flashed the 6.5 ROM). Thanks to you Detroit Doug or I don't think I would have been able to do it without your instructions. I however do have one more question....i'm having issues syncing the device with my PC now. Any idea on what that could be???
re: Thanks
I've done several resets but to no avail am i able to connect via active sync???
OK maybe i lied about everything working properly and wonderful....so on top of not being able to connect to my PC via activesync I also am not able to connect to the internet on my device, i've downloaded and installed the NFSFAN Sprint GPS Registry but still its a no go... Did i do something wrong completely????? still
I fixed the internet problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
....somehow magically i'm now able to connect via activesync. I guess the device just needed time to adjust. Thanks for the help, and i do apologize for the numerous newbie questions.

The best is NFSFAN's Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM. You can find it on another thread in this forum right here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432487
Don’t even bother with anything else. I am running this. It is fast, stable and very close to the stock WM 6.5 (I have downloaded the device emulator image from Microsoft’s website for software development purposes). The extras that are in there are useful.

Hi Experts,
Would like to check whether anyone out there have ever encounter such problem?
I receive a rude shock this morning when I power on my 1 week old HTC HD which reads below:
"This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers.
To obtain a newer release or further information, please revisit the web site that you used to obtain your current beta release."
I've flashed it with Dutty's Rom v1.8 and many other software which I use to have on my previous PDA. I son't think its coming from the ROM but maybe the software i installed. I remember the last few ones was Resco Explorer, Resco Pro viewer, FTP CLient...etc.
I tried many ways but just cannot seem to get rid of this screen as it appears right after any reset. So I decided to hard reset the phone but after going thru the procedure of holding the Vol up/down and power button, it just reboot like after a soft reset...and YES, it went back to the same screen!
Another thing, I couldn't get the phone to sync with my PC too.
What when wrong and what other method can I try? Any kind soul's advice will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers and thanks in advance.
put your phone on bootloader mode(tricolour screen),then connect your usb cable,on your tricolour screen it should show you USB,when you see it on the screen(on your phone)then you can flashing rom.
Hope this help

Thanks for the advice, you are right. Its the Time Bomb for Dutty's ROM v1.8.
Just manage to get the new ROM and flash it. Have to re-install the bunch of softwares i did earlier as i didn't read carefully that there's a time bomb.
Thanks again for the advice.
Cheers
yes it's a problem with the OS version used unknown by the cooker. It has been corrected. It is mentioned the Dutty 1.8 thread. Since Dutty 1.9 is out seems good time for an upgrade.
you have to put the CAB file on your memory card,when you flashing the new rom,you have to install all software back your phone
Can you be a bit more specific
Hi
Can you please do a little step by step thing. I am having this problem. What do i do once i am in tricolour screen after USB is displayed at bottom of screen.
Thanks in advance
Hi experts,
I have a touch pro2, it was not displaying Chinese fonts so I installed fontpatch.cab. Now the phone hangs as soon as I start it. Soft reset is not working . I am not able to do anything on it. Please help me.
Regards,
Sumanth
try if you can still connect the phone to your computer using ActiveSync and remove the program you just installed using ActiveSync. if that didn't work, i guess hard-resetting the device is the way to fix it.

The only references I could find to that cab were all for the version that was written for WM 5.0, so I'm guessing that it's incompatible w/6.1 and up.
And yes, if you can't get past the bootup screen to be able to remove the program, you might have no other option than a hard-reset at this point.
Thank u
Thanks guys for your reply. I did hard reset and installed the cab file on this thread: 450574
Now phone is fine and I am able to see these fonts also
I just successfully rooted my HTC Desire HD and flashed the android revolution HD 6.3.1. (Thanks to the author)
However, after booting, I no longer have the HTC start up sound. I have checked a few threads about this with no success. There are many threads on disabling the start up sound, but nothing that provides a fix for my siuation.
Another site recommended going into the media file and do as follows:
media/notifications/bootanimation and rename the andoid_audio.mp3
My situation is...... after notifications, there is no bootanimation or android_audio.mp3
Has the rom flash deleted this file? Is it located somewhere else? I used both my PC and file manager extensively to locate this but I cannot.
I am hoping that someone else has had this same problem and a solution or if anyone might know how I can fix this missing file.
Hoping patiently

We rom devs usually move the respective files to /data/data. If it's there, and bootanimation/sound is not activated at boot, it means there's a missing symlink/improperly mounted ext partition. Ask your dev how to proceed, as the symlinks are usually different for each rom
I flashed android revolution HD 6.3.1
Would you be able to direct me to the proper location to report my problem?
@ Raymond Ebertt
The ARHD is for Desire HD and such , not for HTC DESIRE !! Ask Mike about your problem this is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840040
My friend why dont u install the stock rooted 3.12.405.1 rom that was posted a few days ago. Ive tried arhd and the stock one feels way smoother. Im on it currently nd it has the stock boot stuff.
@mitzap... My phone is the HTC Desire HD, however, I will follow your suggestion and ask Mike at that thread this evening after work.
Thanks
I tried your suggestion and all my HTC Desire HD does is open the HTC home screen, closes, opens again, and does so for several minutes. No success on that one.....
Raymond, you had better open your issue on the DHD forum. When I answered your query, I was under the impression that your device is a Desire.
Problem fixed. Thanks all for suggestions
