I am getting ready for people to flame me but i am going to ask this anyway, where has the site that hosted the black ROMS? i need the 3G dialer Jasjamming has released. Is it possible someone has it and could post a link up here.
There is something wrong with the shadow site
http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/portal.php
can someone please tell me what the problem is!! when i try to log in i get told i need to download and install a piece of software which i have done but i still cant get into the site, i cant even ask a moderator from that site to help coz i cant see the site!!!
Help & thanks in advance
Its possible it might be on the official black site:
http://wmblack.info
but prolly not a good idea to post the dialer on here as jj has requested mirrors arent used.
The 3G dialer isnt a mirror of the 2G dialer (its the same as black dymond for now)

thanks for the advice, can you tell me how i can get to the site mentioned on my previous post? i dnt know how im ment to configure that zend software (also i dont think i hav a webserver(?!?) and im guessing you will know what to do!!
thanks again
P.S. your guides have saved my skin so many times!! (Got my first TYTN recently, ur guide helped me get rid of WM5!!) good work
dude...dont worry about the zend thing....the forum is down and it is a message for the web administrator...the zend engine is part of php.
The site is back up now
Here's the dialer that JJ posted earlier...
"Black Shadow Video Dial CONFIGURATION
For those of you who want Video Dial Capabilities on your Black Shadows you need to install the following:
BACKUP FIRST!!!!!
1. Install Part1.CAB then Soft Reset
2. Install Part2.CAB DONT Soft Reset (press cancel after it is installed --> then go to the next step)
3. Install Part3.CAB then Soft Reset
YOU MUST FOLLOW THE ABOVE EXACTLY TO THE LETTER OTHERWISE IT WONT WORK.
> DOWNLOAD HERE <
Once the above procedure is completed, it takes around 2mb of storage space.
This video dialer is the one found on Black Dymond 3.5 and the benefit is that I have made it compatable with
zombie skins. You can customize your dialer skins by visiting: http://www.zombienexus.net/portal/GL_Display.asp?SEC=3&EntryID=513
(Note: uninstalling the zombie skins may cause your video button to dissapear therefore to change your zombie skin, just reinstall another)
Once you have successfuly installed the 3g Video DIaler, the "3G Video Dialer" functionality
in Pimp my Black v0.2 works, hence you can enable and disable the 3g Video Dialer (but the non-video dialer
is the basic WM6 one)
Apologies for taking long on this, I was actually trying to port a dialer that matches the current NON-VIDEO one in the Shadow.
This was unsuccessful due to complication with incompatable DLL's for video telephony etc.
NOTE: Once you have completed this procedure you will permanently lose (well until you HR) the DEFAULT SHADOW big-button dialer in your PPC.
Thanks and Best Regards
JJ"

thanks guys, i thought there was something wrong with my comp, it did say on the link last night that new software was needed n i jus assumed is was needed by me. anyway it works now.
also to ronfin44 thanks for the links and install instructions, i didnt realize it got rid of the big button dialer, do you think there is any way to just add a another button to the dialer and shrink the font size of the number output?
thanks again
i wonder if someone could edit the retouched wizard dialer available on this site?
megaupload is not working here.. can you please upload at rapidshare?
Here ya go. Try this link. It's the origianl thread JJ posted for it at win4mobile.
http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/hermes-black-rom-support/9975-video-dialer-4-shadow.html
just realized this is one app i cant use. anybody knows how i would be able to uninstall this? will deleting the .cab files uninstall it?
thanks
Seriously guy, you need to start reading more before trying stuff like this.
Why can't you not install the files? What error are you getting?
Secondly, and you may not know this but those *.cabs you are installing do change a number of items in your registry. You could try to just let it be, but you could have some unseen problems.
So, if you ran them and got half-way then you might want to finish the installation properly. However if you do not want to do that and want to go back to the way you were before, then you will have to do a Hard Reset.
ADDED EDIT: So to answer your question, no, deleting the *.cabs will change nothing.

Found this on Orange UK website. Enjoy
http://www.orange.co.uk/diamond/RUU...igned_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe
thanks man any info about the orange tf3d with analogue clock on this rom?
This is out of box from HTC . No orange customisation. I believe this will allow Orange customers to upgrade without the HardSPL stuff

What are the benefits of this software update for my phone?
The software upgrade for your HTC Touch Diamond improves performance, stability and battery life.
How do I download the latest software update?
Before you upgrade to the latest version of ROM software, please ensure that:
you have backed up all of your personal data
while performing the ROM Update, all of your data and settings will be erased from your phone. It is necessary to back up all of your personal data (contacts, appointments, tasks) using Active Sync.
it is suggested that you save content such as music, ringtones, pictures onto you laptop or memory card.
your PC is running Windows® 98, 2000, XP or vista. Your battery has 50% or more charge.
Note: be aware that you cannot use your phone during the installation and you will not be connected to the network.
You will need to reconfigure your E mail settings once updated.
Windows installation instructions:
connect the device to your PC using your USB cable. An activesync pop up should indicate that you are connected. Do not remove this cable during the installation process.
click on the ROM link below and choose to save the file to your PC
Once download is complete double-click the file and follow all instructions in the installation wizard that will appear on screen. If the current and new ROM are the same version you can still re-install, this can often cures problems.
you can save the ROM to a file on your PC for reinstalling later or to upgrade several phones from one download.
once the installation begins you will see the install shield and integrity testing complete before the upgrade starts
when the ROM upgrade begins your phone will display a red,
green and blue (bootloader) screen, a progression bar will appear on
your PC and the phone will show progress towards 100%.
once installed your phone will install the ROM and restart.
Anyone tested this version yet?
deleted wrong info given
anyone tried the new rom update yet?
pls let me know if there are any problems or bugs etc??
cheers

I put this version on my phone from htc with hardspl and I have had no problems at all
Do you know if this update will reset the hard spl and radio versions?
Or is it just the rom update. If so, how would I restore my original SPL so that Orange wouldn't know I've tinkered with it?!
My phone has a fault you see and I think I will need to have it replaced.
Thanks
PS, I've installed the Orange ROM. There are no orange customisations at all.
It's like a very basic version of the unofficial 1.93 roms doing the rounds here.
It's good for those that have an old Oraneg rom and don't wanna risk a cooked rom on here, but if you've already got a new rom such as swiftbl or dutty etc, I wouldn't bother with the orange rom.
In fact I'm gonna install a new rom from here and not bother with the boring Orange one!
Thanks for that dude,
However i must say, i have been waiting for this rom from orange for about 2 months now, and all thy can do is supply a rom which has been on this fourm for over a month now. 1.93.405.1. what happend to orange TV and other things...
well all i can say is "shame on you ORANGE UK"
No complants here, this ROM is fast as hell and has no Orange customisation. Just what I wanted.
Happy days.
Battery Life?
Is it any better? Does the phone still heat up like a griddle when its used?

All,
Due to good success in the Blue Angel section, I have decided to open a Questions and Answers thread on this section of the forum as well. This will be good to keep the number of new threads with questions down to a minimum, which will make new threads essentially for people that are contributing to the Vogue in any way. This includes but is not limited to people that are providing
*New Roms and Kitchens
*Programs and Apps
*Fixes
*Skins
*Tips and Tricks
However, I have a life (and so do most of you), which is why I would like to request the help from other Seniors (or anyone who knows the answer really ) to monitor the thread as well. This will have the added side effect of creating an ever self updating knowledge base that will far extend the content of the Wiki. This will in turn save us from having to answer the same question 37000 times...
Without further ado, lets go for it!

GOOD IDEA!
Hi there Gents any input
Barogi awesome so far for v2; media player not staying in full screen mode though, and manila home weather under clock wont update when you push update now also getting error message for manila home on reboot
Great idea for a faq page!
I have been using a NFSfan rom on my bell vogue for a while, and it crapped out today for some reason. Rather than put another WM build on it, I wanted to change to Android.
I have looked through many pages in here, but I can't find a simple tutorial on switch from a custom WM build to a Android build. I prefer to use the NAND method so that I don't ever have to see WM again...
Can someone create or point me towards a step-by-step guide for installing Android? Keep in mind that I have absolutely no Android experience, and that my custom ROM is completely messed up, so would it make for sense to flash the a manf build and upgrade from there?
Thanks

As far as WMP, Barogi will have to look into it since it is his rom.
One last thing, please do not double post. Thanks for understanding...
I have a question:
I recently flashed the Bell rom with the latest radio (I couldn't get the radio only nbh to apply properly), and then subsequently flashed with the latest NagROM rom (which is awesome btw).
Now of course, at startup i have the nice HTC screen with the rom version etc, followed by an AWFUL blue BELL screen (and then the nice orange wm6.5 screen).
Is it possible to change the blue BELL screen? And if so how?

There was a cab to change that somewhere around here in this section of the forum. Alternatively, you can flash NFSFan's rom (which will get rid of it), or you can try mine as well and then reflash Nag's rom.

Question from mac+htc
mac+htc said:
Hey everyone,
So I was running NSFANS 6.5 ROM on my device (Amazing ROM btw) But I needed to revert back to the stock rom. I used the VZW updater to go back to the stock rom and I changed the esn on line. When I dialed the *228 and choose option 1 I got a failed message. So I called customer support and he walked me through a manual programing. Well that got voice working but when I went to use the data it wouldn't work. I made sure all the network settings were right, and I still couldn't connect. Well then I hard reset the device and now I am back to square 1. No voice no data. Is this something from NSFANS rom that is messing the phone up? I don't want to call again because their tech support takes forever and I am afraid they are just going to tell me to take the phone into the store. Thanks in advance!

Why did you change the E$N? Where you using the device in a different carrier?
Back to your problem. Your EPST settings should survive a hard reset as those are parameters that are not stored in Windows (afaik). It really makes not difference which rom you are using (at least for Voice and SMS).
Lets focus on your main phone's capabilities first. If your EPST settings truly got lost, you will need to get them from Verizon again. The main ones are the MSD and MIN. Make sure that you write them down this time as you will need them again if they go bye bye.
As for your internet, you will probably need to set the correct username in the phone's programming as well (also info that you will need from Verizon, but it should be something like [email protected] or something like that)
Do that and let me know if this works. They will have to program this for you this time, but once you have the values that I mentioned before, you will be able to do it yourself.

Try to get Barogi's latest "lite" rom. Also, you can't go wrong with vin's 28014 or NFSFan's rom. I would recommend mine, but I think they might be a little heavy for what you want. Good luck.
i checked out NSFSfan. It was nice, but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much for what I want. Ill check out the other you suggested before i just flash back to stock rom

Try to avoid stock if you can... it has a bad tendency of being too heavy on the extra apps.
I checked out just SS's of both. Both look awesome, but theres something about the simple look ( or im just used to it since my 8125 ) of the stock look. I would like to have the look but the added memory of a cooked rom.
With NSFSfans, could you remove the today screen plug ins to get back to a more stock look?
Im runnin 2.1 android eclair at the moment, and im barley pulling a full day battery with no data/bluetooth. With the old winmo, I was getting 2.5 days-3days. Thats another main concern for me.

Busy day today
Anyways, I decided to discontinue 25005 since it had a graphical bug, which after spending several hours looking for answers, I couldn't fix...
So, here is the newest build (yes, even newer than 25005)
Build log is pretty much the same as 25005 but with a few exceptions
*Increased pagepool size to 18 MB!
*New Build 25005 (no clue about which COM branch it belongs to, so please don't ask )
*Added Bing
*MSN Widgets are Back
*Removed Opera since there is a newer version out there (with Flash support!). I haven't gotten the cab, so I will let you all install it and let me know
*Internet Sharing Added
*FaceBook Mobile is Back!
*Added QuickGPS (for faster lockons... or so I hear)
*Dialer Lag is gone!!!
*The only extra that I don't like (and I did not put in) was haptic feedback when touching the start menu. If anyone knows how to get rid of this... please.
Click to expand...

Removed
*Showcase
*Mega dialer (simply left stock). Probably will try to use the GSM dialer from NFS's thread.
*Added Arcsoft MMS to UC Folder
*Added Netfront Concept 4 (latest one) to UC (replace with your choice of browser if you like something else). I find Opera very hard to use without an accelerometer and a scroll wheel, so I decided not to cook it in.
*Updated GoogleMaps to the latest publicly available
*I added a pretty cool looking theme for 6.5 but it was the cause for my funny looking icons and scrollbars, so use at your own risk.

[highlight]Installation Notes:[/highlight]
[highlight]Your device must be unlocked for this to work. If you don't know how to unlock it, there is a link on my signature with a guide on how to do this.

It should as long as you install the Verizon provisioning cab over top NFSFan's roms are built for Bell by default but they run fine on other carriers. I'm not sure if there is something special about MetroPCS that would cause issues but I think you should be fine.

If you got my 25005, there is a fix for it (you have to edit the registry in a couple of places), which I posted on that thread (it is related to Showcase and it was driving me nuts too ). My advise would be to go with 28230. It seems a bit more stable...

Well, it is Friday, in Miami with no moon at all
I've got it up and running this afternoon. Here's s couple of thoughts & questions:
#1) I couldn't get your included ROMUpdateUtility.exe to run on Vista. I just dropped the nbh file in a folder from another rom and it flashed fine. I may have had a corrupted download, but it all extracted fine.
#2) CM Internet Sharing and ICS Control, are these useful on a phone without wifi? I'm curious to know how they can be used.
#3) I'm an EzInput bigot. I still think you should add it
#4) You have a lot of config utils included. Not sure how easy it is to do when cooking, but you might want to throw those in the Tools folder in the start menu. I doubt 90% of users would touch those.
Good job, thanks for cooking these for us.
Is anyone else having marketplace problems in this build? Seems to be slower when running, and I've had several "server" errors..

I am getting intermittent networking issues on Bell for the last 24hrs. I was blaming it on the ISP...maybe its a problem with 28230
Hey everyone!
Didn't find thread anywhere about this (just a lot of mentions in other threads).
Problem is:
Any exotic DZ (Asian and Scandinavian reported) does not work properly without Sense.
Capacitive buttons vibrate normally when pressed but no action whatsoever. (not in the apps neither in launcher).
ROM's reported to have this problem (as far as I know):
HTC Vision stock (by Modaco) (I can confirm)
CM RC 6.1
And generally speaking any ROM without sense.
Could we gather all these problems here, with mention what version of DZ and which ROM?
Also if someone knows a way to get them working it would be appreciated to post it here so everyone would know.
UPDATE:
with more research I found this in VillainROM topic:
redglasses designed some help:

(link contains update-vision-keypad-for-desirez.zip)
LINK to the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9353194#post9353194
(says that it is designed to work with CM)
Any one know more, does this work with any ROM?
UPDATE1:
The update-vision-keypad-for-desirez-signed.zip is compatible with any ROM! (thanks to redglasse for it)
This came to be pretty obvious after opening it and checking what it does
So just flash it after your new rom.
UPDATE2:
It really does not have anything to do with Sense. Only that the right keymap and keychar files are only shipped in roms with Sense!
(Asia and special European countries get only Sense versions)
Link to files pulled from Finnish (Scandinavian keymap) DZ:
DO NOT FLASH THE FILE BELOW, IT IS NOT IN FLASHABLE FORMAT!

(I think that Redglasses is missing some keymaps, so every one of them is in the link above)
UPDATE 3
Seems to me that there is still problem that special Scandinavian characters type as CAPITALIZED every time. Is there any one out there that has some knowledge about them?
With Hexedit I can't locate the chars at keychar files. But in keylayout files they are named as func_number. So I presume that even when they are binded as some special characters they still work via some functions? Could anyone look into this or have some knowledge where those functions are?
UPDATE 4
Hey all!
HOW TO FIX YOUR CAP BUTTONS AND KEYLAYOUTS + CAPITALIZED SCANDIS!!!
In theory should work in every ROM.
1. Perform NANDROID backup! (I'm not responsible for any damaged devices etc blah blah...)
2. Download this fix from redglasses http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Z13DE4QE
3. Apply it from clockwork recovery
4. If you have capitalized Scandinavian keys!!! Download this file modded by me:
http://www.filedropper.com/vision-keypad-norkcm
5. Connect your device with usb debugging on
6. type this to cmd prompt:
Code:
adb remount
adb push \(PATH TO DOWNLOADED FILE HERE) /system/usr/keychars/vision-keypad-nor.kcm.bin
7. reboot your device to remount system as it should be
8. profit
Thanks to Redglasses for the original fix, I would appreciate if someone backed my fixed vision-keypad-nor.kcm.bin into his update.zip
****LINK FIXED!

And the instructions where that redglasse did this and it should be flashed on top of the rom.

If the buttons vibrate, they are being picked up.
Can you do an 'adb logcat' and show what it says.
This should help the devs. And give me something to read.
All you need to do is plug your phone in, open a command prompt (have adb working) and type 'adb logcat'. Press a button, wait for a reaction and press CTRL-C (on the PC). Copy / Paste the log into a post. The shorter the better.
EDIT - that zip could be flashed on any ROM. Make a nandroid first though.
I guess that there is no need for logcat. Just that the roms missed the files in ZIP. Keymap and Keychar files in fact. I could post all of them somewhere (zip seemed to miss one or two keymaps).
This is just a bit specific issue, to my knowledge this is 2nd QWERTY Android phone getting worldwide attention, so community is not aware of the fact that all the roms need bit of a "compatibility" to include every phone.
So I got it working with that ZIP and G2 rom. (almost)
I just left wondering when the device chooses the keymap and keychar to use? Is it on the first boot up after the flash or every boot up? So if I make any changes are they applied in every boot up?
Anyways these should be bakes in to ROMS.
And why I said that it works almost is that my Å Ö Ä buttons always type with CAPITALS. No matter if i press shift or no. And I still can chose the special letters from a or o with long press and touchscreen. So is it problem with these files or somewhere else?
I'll upload my own files pushed from Scandinavian DZ when I find some free host
So in this link U can find the files pulled from my own DZ sense rom before any hassle:

I only have this problem when I run Cyanogenmod. LauncherPro+ works nicely on Sense ROMs. I'm guessing it's some keyboard layout thing that is different.
Sendt with a HW Keyboard from my Desire Z, woop!

As I stated in the update it is due the versions of the roms, not really the sense itself. (the ROMs that include every keymap also include Sense )
TheDeadCpu said:
Well, I'm guessing (aka not sure) that taking the Scandinavian/UK keymap files and using them in the ROM would solve it.

Instead of Scandinavian/UK just put every one of the files. They are 1Kb each and in total like 22Kb. See previous posts for a link to d/l my files
Yeah, seems to me that would be the case. (I'm almost 100% sure about that) Just make everyone use them!!!!
And make a guide/wiki article or something to be found via google by noobs like me

Okay i got i working by installing the first zip..
Yeah, the second zip is no flash, I'll make a point to it at first post.
I just took them out because redglasses zip seemed to miss some so if ayone wanted to push my files into same zip.
Btw is there anyone out here who could help / knew why all the special chars in Scandinavian keyboard are capitalized?

I tried flashing this with CM7 build6, yet my buttons do not work even after doing this. This is on Gingerbread. Should I try flashing again?
Same problem as you ilifin. Flashed, but when pushing the capacative buttons the phone doesnt even vibrate.
All works for me if I mount /system in clockwork recovery before installing this patch. Some kind guy told that in one of parallel threads
Mounting /system in recovery before patching solved it. Thanks a bunch!
Does someone still have the fix as a zip? The megaupload no longer works and I desperately need it. Pretty Please?
