TouchFlo 3D above 1.1 - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

Hi there
It seems there a TouchFlo 2.1 and 2.0 etc.
I have the stock 1.1 one.
Is it a good idea to upgrade?
Whats the difference between them?
I search but I cant find any particular links to an installable file.

Custom ROMs are a lot better, and TF3D2+ is a lot better than 1.1, it looks better and there is more HTC made parts of WM, like texting, calender etc.
(I'm assuming since you have TF3D1 that you are using a stock ROM, so if that's the case and haven't used one before read the sticky's.)

But the TF3D2+ aren`t 100% ported to VGA resolution and there are few bugs mainly in landscape orientation... So it`s up to you to choose to try something new and better looking or stick to the older TF3D1 which is bug free(or at least it should be).

Thanks for the replies so far, no i've used a few other cooked roms and all, in reply to donald-c.
I was just wondering if it was possible to get a stand-alone install of such TF3D 2.0 or 2.1 to install on the stock rom?

TF3D Screen Rotation

Hello,
I see, when people make TF3D Themes, that they have it in landscape. Looks beautiful in Landscape.
But thats the problem.... I CAN'T make it go to landscape!!!!!
I have used the following programs:
ScreenRotate
Flip-It
Gyrator2
Among a few others.
If anyone can provide me a .CAB for a GOOD sreen rotation app for Touch Flow 3D with instructions on how to set it and make it work would be great, if not, just help me set the apps already made if it works for you.
BUMP!
Works when Touch Flow 3D is disabled, nothing flips Touch Flow 3D to landscape mode.
How do you guys do it?
TF3D Landscape
there are special ROM's included TF3D with Landscape Mode.
If you want TF3D Landscape you have to flash another ROM.
I want the ORIGINAL ROM though. Preferably with Russian Language.
I have the original ROM from HTC with FULL Russian.
Anywhere to get it with TF3D Landscape???
Or any GOOD ROMS out?
Your Help is Much Appreciated.
Manila landscape is not possible for your original ROM.
Plenty of very good custom ROMs are available though, which are a lot better than your custom ROM. However for non WWE languages applied to ROMs with the latest manila version you need wait a little longer. I believe people are working on it as we speak.
For more information check the ROM section, as from which all this information was already available on the first place.

If you like the original rom and want a very original feel with more smoothness/speed and a couple more features as well as many bug fixes look at Dutty's 3.0 Final Release rom.
Use ChangeScreen.

(Post to short)
Use HD Tweak to enable landscape then assign your call key to rotate in buttons part of settings.But you cant rotate on original roms only Manila V3 roms. If old manila rotates it goes all messed up then reverts back to portrait

Does anyone have the files needed to use the latest version of the blackstone camera?

as i'm still using a 6.1 based release as I find it quicker and more responsive, I don't have the latest camera software installed.
As I use the camera quite a bit I was wondering if it would be possible to get the updated version from someone so I can upgrade the software version on the 3.9XT dutty rom that I use as i see that more recent roms come with later versions of the software.
Many thanks

I dont think so you can upgrade it by using cab but anyway have look at this video it showes video performance in Leo ROM amazing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzDgTh0WOgY
You can upgrage the camera by cab, as i have cabs for the original blackstone and topaz camera right here that can be installed and work just fine. Unfortunately, though, I don't have access to the latest versions of the camera that come with some of the later roms.
The video on the leo rom is certainly an improvement, but it is still pretty rubbish compared with my 3 and a half year old N95 when it comes to video recording, so HTC are a long way behind in this regard

Sense 2.5?

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or not, but I cannot find a ROM that has Sense 2.5 running nearly as smooth as 2.1, which is a real shame because I like the look and feel of 2.5 a lot. I've tried a large number of ROMs. I've done hard resets afterwards, and flashed back to the stock ROM beforehand, and after a few hours 2.5 will run slow coming from the home page, but scrolling and what not from there will be fine afterwards.
What has other people's experiences been with 2.5? I'd really like to get it to run as well as 2.1 does, but I understand it was made for a device that had a 1GHZ processor in it, too.
Thanks
I think a lot of us are in the same boat as you. Sense 2.5 is simply just not made for our devices.
theres alot of dependencies. and it doesnt agree with the keyboard. and it was made for the 1ghz proc. i wouldnt say its bad though. it seems most people wont opt into for the cfc compressed version though. cfc did wonders for 1.3 and 2.1.
Opt into? Are there ROMs that have a CRC compressed version, or is it just no one's done it?
Sorry, I don't know much about developing stuff like that.
I´m sure that great Chefs here will eventually have a smooth stable version
The fastest iteration of a 2.5 ROM I've played around with is Cell Pro Lite V1. It runs 2.5 and most everything really fast, but I can't get Swype to work on that ROM, and I love that input method. Always a compromise.

Fast Rom

Hi All,
Sorry for creating a new thread but I've been constantly tweaking and upgrading my touch diamond and tbh I'm not happy. I have tried countless roms and I have yet to find a fluid one which does not frustrate me. Sense 2.5 is unusable, I don't understand how anyone can use it; you guys must have a lot of patient. I have gone for Gen Y 6.1 with Sense 2.1. I have heard that WM6.1 runs slightly faster and I use the recommended radio. Yes this rom is faster than most others I have tried but it's still not fast enough. It's a clean flash with mtty and I have changed the file system cache yada yada yada but it's still pretty laggy. I'm posting to ask peoples opinions on the fastest roms and I don't mean ones that are simply "usable". I am still unsure with the speed difference between TF3D compared to sense and I have yet to try Titanium, maybe titanium is the way froward? What are the fastest combinations (eg win6.1 with what etc..).
Any advice would be great,
Thanks in advance.
in my opinion these are the fast and stable combo you could try
WM 6.1 + sense 2.5 => GenY roms are great, programs mems are usually about 65% used but it's kinda not "smooth" enough when sliding the tabs :|
WM 6.5 + sense 2.1 => DonSalari roms , really fast but heavily tweak and some kind of stuffs i must install the invidual packages while other roms have them natively
WM 6.1 + sense 2.1 => best performance for daily use ! compared with TF3D 2.1 , sense 2.1 is more eyed-candy and get the better ram usage the TF3D 2.1 is always about 80% when you have used the music tab, picture tab. While in sense 2.1 it's about 65% used
so enough ? i'm on the way finding a best combo 6.5 + sense 2.1 with stock stuffs and best perfomance. and you may like a 6.1+ sense 2.1 combo ftw ) sorry for my english isn't good enough
i think the PP you can set to 10mb for best perfomance , 8mb by default is really turning me on when using sense 2.5
I've switched to 6.5 and titanium because I couldn't find a rom which had decent perfromance without bugs. It's a BSB rom and so far not had any issues with it. Sense 2.5 has about a second added every time you switch tabs. It looks pretty but it's just too slow.
Just switched to BSB Titanium 6.5 and it seems so much faster. I've only had a quick play but it seems very responsive. I just need to get used to the titanium UI, haven't got a clue where anything is, lol. Is there any way to get the task manager in the top menu like the other versions because I keep losing my apps =s

You should find a shortcut to a program called CHome editor. You can use this to make new panels. It's not the most inuitive app but it's what we have. You can use it to create a panel with a shortcut to the built-in task manager. I'm not aware of how you'd use the old top corner style task manager but if you get this to work, you might like it even more.

[Q] Which ROM would you recommend

Hey, hope there aren't a lot of threads with the same question but i didn't find one.
I will root my Desire the next days and then want to update to a custom rom.
There are some things i really need:
1. A2SD (that i can store any apps on the SD card)
2. Stable (NO bugs)
3. Sense (maybe normal sense, but might be also a port from the desire HD/Z)
4. Fast-Browser WITH Flash
5. (not so important) a Rom which is not overloaded and themed, i like the way sense looks, with all it's fonts and pictures.
Would ne great if someone could tell my what rom he would suggest for me and my needs.
Thanks
iNsertCoin HD/Z Port 1.9.5
in the video the menu seems to be a bit laggy. and the equalizer doesnt work. not that i need it but i dont like roms where something doesnt work... why would you recommend this to me?

One more voice for "iNsertCoin HD/Z Port". I am still using older version "1.8f".. No FCs, very nice and smooth. No lags for me.
Cool sense Cool Z v6 (i can't get V7 to work properly(its still in beta))
The HD roms from my pov, the fonts too small for my old eyes

I have been using the REMIxHD and it all seems to work very well, very fluid lag free flash works standard browser so might give dolphin ago. But then again when I got the LG GT540 on 2.1 thought it was good at the time.
I am using standard leedroid 2.3d. Working great for me and fits into your criteria.

The phone runs an older verison of the ROM in the video, which was laggy. EQ does not work, desire lacks of hardware.
I think you should go with a 2.2 Froyo ROM such as LeeDroid and not the HD/Z ports or Gingerbread.
I used to have RCMIXHD 3.0 A2SD and had a great experience with it. Surprisingly fast.
If Sense is not a priority for you, I'd recommend Oxygen or MIUI XJ, way smoother than any Sense HD port.
I used to love sense too. Sense is lovely.
These days though I realise that it's just eye candy - free yourself and get rid of it.
Go for Redux 1.0.2 (Gingerbread) which is the fastest smoothest ROM I've used (and I've used a lot).
Launcherpro has some god damn accurate Sense style widgets built in, and you can easily mod its dock to look the same as the sense dock, so you can have the sense look and feel, whilst still being able to use all the free space that sense usually takes up
This is what I'm currently running and I'm really happy with it.
free yourself and get rid of it.

I had a HTC hero before and used Android without sense, but the audio player for example sucks ...
i think i will stick to froyo and sense until the official gingerbread+sense comes out and someone has rooted it and created a custom rom.
Or is there anything in gingerbread that ist better than in froyo?

Actually i think LeeDroid is overloaded. The pictures i've seen are full with custom logos, fonts, etc, etc.
I Just want the original sense/sense HD style.
What ROM would you recommend? What about the Rooted Stock Roms?
And another question: Does slowing down the CPU when screen ist of (what is possible in some ROM's) really help for more battery life? I'm not really convinced and afraid of destroying anything on my loved HTC Desire..

There is nothing like that in LeeDroid. i think you are getting a wallpaper
confused with the os. or maybe you saw a boot animation and got it
confused either way it is "stock" sense with tweaks and it runs very
nicely. I swear by it anyway and put it on all my friends desires.
I went to HD roms but they either start running slow or take
too long to open things like the music player, this all bugged me so i
ditched it. I got the feeling that it wasnt designed for this hardware.
It might be good by now but who knows.
With leedroid i set the cpu scaling to "smartass" so it dips when nothing
is happening or the screens off and rises back to the top when in use.
"ondemand" does the same i believe but each governor has its advantages.
This all helps battery life but i cant say how much because ive been
running it for so long i dont notice.
Leedroid also has an intergrated fix for the charge issue with sense roms where
the battery is never at 100% when you take it off charge.
Try StarBurst lite is what you are looking for,
its Stock Sense with simple D2Ext. Kernel is LeeDroid 2.3 from snq - major Battery saver.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=916417
or try dsixda's Kitchen and cook your own Stock ROM with A2SD and just flash snq's Kernel.

Im using coolexe hd version 7,got a2sd sending apps to memory card. Batterys good,pretty much the same,but this is dependant on the amount of apps and things you get id say, The hd sense is much better in my opinion,more customization. Htc.com onboard but only some things work,lovely rom though id take that one a go,insertcoins good also,ive tried aurax also.all good.try them all mate,once you know the score test as many as u want!
A simple, stable gingerbread would be Oxygen 2.0.1.
A feature rich, fully customiseable alternative is the Cyanogen ROM (link in signature).
Choose whatever suits your needs.
I found this topic that is what I want to know. I hope it is not wrong to revive this thread.
I would like to root my Desire soon and update it to a custom rom.
There are some things i need:
1. Stable (NO MAJOR bugs -calls, sms, wi-fi, camera and basic functions should be working with no problems)
2. Android 2.3.4 or 2.3.5
3. A2SD (so i can store any apps on the SD card)
Would like to have, but not a must: Only if it works without laggs and buggs.
4. Sense 3.0 or 3.5 (for example like one from the desire HD)
I have htc Desire with official 2.3.3 Android (that I instaled from htc website) and is not rooted yet. I want to root and instal one of the newest android on my phone.
Therefore I would ask for some help, to help me choose the right one for me. I'm considering one of those:

Would be great if someone could tell me which rom would you suggest for me. One of those 3 or perhaps one I misslooked.
I'm sorry for my spelling mistakes...
I'm grateful for any help or suggestion I might get.
Just installed Runnymede AIO V4.0 Special Edition, runs really smooth.
Before i switched to CM7, i used Insert coin and it was really really fast and was stable only reason i switched to CM7 was due to better themes and more settings
This is all really helpful, thanks so much to all you guys for doing this!!
My quick question on this, any of the roms that pretty much emulate a standard experience, e.g. the Starburst, plus app2sd functionality, any of these also support ad hoc wifi?
I believe there are ways of custom installing it, though are there (simple) roms out there which include it already?
