Awesome rom
Stable and all included
Nice work
I cannot unlock Ext flash with this rom, it was accesable on Dutty's rom
Hi Chamelion any possibility to put a link for this rom, in another friendly site like megaupload, I also don't like rapidshare at all. Thanks
So far great ROM..
Thanks for not including cyberon vc it makes it much easier to get ms vc going.
Everything else seems to work just fine, but voice dialling ain't working (Error opening the short cut). This same happened with lvsw's version (and with Black 3.0).
How do I fix this?
[edit]
Never mind, just installed Cyberion Voice Dialer.cab

got an even friendlier site called zimuhost.getmyip.com
there's a high speed HTTP mirror posted in the forum that the original posters link links to. i'm anti rapidshare, hence me starting up the file hosting thing!
I found another problem, that I never had before When I change anything via control panel Today, then nothing really happend, only after SR.This is odd, because if I want to use SPB products, then I must SR device each time, I make any changes. Till now I did not read or search on forum about this problem (or if somebody actually have same problem as I), I going to flash device again only if problem did not dissapear, then I start looking for answers.
PS: with original LVSW last version this problem was not.
/update\
now I find some posts about this prob here till now, no sollution.
For those of you who want ms vc over headset.
Its probably best to not have the headset paired so unpair it and just add it after all the steps.
1.) Install MS VC 1.6
2.) Install attached .cab
3.) In programs launch BT Voice Command Config
4.) Check enable
5.) Click save
6.) Click Exit
7.) Turn off phone
8.) Turn on phone
9.) Pair bt headset
I take no credit for this program it was done by XCSdM and later modified by ZaJules..
This works perfect for me no other tricks or reg edits zilch, nada, nothing. You might want to set voice command to button 5 though.
Is the x-button works like it should with elf version? I mean does the exclusive click working & what build is in this ROM version? thanks in advance
today not refreshing only after SR
For those who have problem with Today settings, this is reply and solution from LegolasTheElf copied from his forum - thank you
"It's looking like that today screen issue is caused by the X-Button. To remove it, go to the Remove Programs settings applet and remove it. Because of the way this ROM is built, you can remove my additions I'm actually going to be building my ROM's in a different way than anyone else--by using mostly CABs to do the customization rather than imbedding into the ROM itself. IMHO, this is a better design as it allows people to customize their device, and reclaim storage space if they don't like the items I've included in the ROM "

That´s exactly what I´ve tried today and so far so good.... it´s a pity as I liked the new version of x button!! Maybe our great chefs can find a solution at some point...
Sorry. I have got a little problem.
Can I make the Windows Live Search bar for "Transparency" background from today screen?

u can't ..my way of doing it is to uninstall the apps, go to settings/remove programs ..and then install the one here http://rapidshare.com/files/32749891/WLM.rar.html
or another way, is to use sleuth developers variation of this LVSW ROM.. (it is pre-installed with the transparent windows live search bar)

Well, I WAS going to wait for a newer 1774x rom, but, given the fact that this ROM is working so well, I see no reason not to continue to use 17913 to cook my ROM..
So, hang tight for some new Elfishness in the coming days
Hi all..!
This Thread,we will talk about the softwares you want update in next V3 B&B
You write the softwares you want in V3.I will update it in V3 B&B
Thanks all..!
Tom
Let me have the pleasure of being the first to thank you and to request that you include the voip you previously posted. It works great.
I also think that adding the utility Shaun33 created in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=303493&highlight=sipgate
is a nice idea to include. There is no other way to configure the SIP settings other than creating an XML file, making it a cab and installing it. So this should complete everything needed to be able to use voip on WM6.
May I also suggest that we keep it simple as well, I mean not to overcrowd this little bugger with so many things after all.
Many thanks in advance and I look forward to seeing this ROM being cooked, I'm actually getting a little hungry
Cheers.

Hey Tom,
I think many of us would appreciate bug fixes before app additions.
I got this installed on my XDA Orbit today and works nicley but a few bugs. Such as When i turn wi-fi on, it comes on, but wont load any webpages, and acts like theres no connection, but its fully connected to my wifi at home.
Also the message alert pop up doesnt match the cool sleek design, its the old white and blue colors and looks horrible.
Maybe you should have a proper bugs thread and get these cleaned up before adding apps?
Thanks!
Had this idea to enhance the sleekness of the interface, not sure if you can incorporate this:How about changing the background in settings - programs to touch black and with white fonts?:. Or even if its possible assign the background image?... This would be all new
Tom, very cool I'm sure no matter how you cook this it'll taste good at the end
Cheers.
Hi Tom,
I've been following this thread since the beginning, the only thing that I miss is my native language support. I have a German HTC P3300 and would be happy to use it in that language, I don't even mind if the other addons are in English.
Apart from that, my critical apps are Wisbar Advance, SPB Mobile Shell and SPB Diary. But since those are all commercial apps it wouldn't be wise to include them.
How about a tutorial how to add custom apps or creating the ROM?

One thing I hate is always to reinstall all the apps I want on a new Rom.
Is it possible to make 1 cabfile for all the apps I want and put it in fe an extended rom? So after putting a new rom on my device it will install all the apps I wanted automatically? But I think if this works, the next problem will that I still need to register all the apps manually, or is there way to do this automatically too?
Cheers
Tom, thanks for all your good work sofar, great job.
When you ask 100 people which program's they like to include in the ROM, you probably will get also 100 different replies. So I second the idea of assembling a barebone ROM (so without one single extra program but hopefully with as less bugs as possible), and a tutorial so that everybody can cook their own unique personal ROM.
I would love a Reg Editor
international
Very good Tom !!
Like I said in the different thread I am ready to translate in french as you which ...
yep, like someone suggested above..make a barebone rom and at all the new faitures with extra cab files. I installed the first rom..then installed all my applications..then installed the second rom..yet again installed all my application etc.
so with every new rom, i can start all over again.
Just make a bare rom with just the essentials and let everybody make a wishlist
and let them choose the cabfiles they like to install.
looks more professional then
btw..great rom ..maybe now i keep my artemis instead of my daily hunt for the exclusiv benq p51 with sdcart, a full keyboard and 320*240 res.
Tom, in your new build can you remove the values from the 1 and 2 keys in HKLM/Comm/RTC/AdapterTypes leaving the keys in place that is please? This seems to have cleared out some issues in regards to voip as Sleuth255 has stated especially if they haven't been set in the first place.
Thanks.

Hi Tom, First of all Thank You for giving us Great ROMs.
-Some people like the V3 will be loaded with all the goodies.
-Some people don't, i hope you will be release the Vanilla version (No body Fat version). if you not going to release the Vanilla version, how do i uninstall the extra software.
I'm M700 user. in V2 I have an issue with appointment schedule.. its keep repeating itself. after i check over and over again.. its nothing to do with the reminder setup. probably a minor bug.
Other than that your ROM is completely THE BEST! M700 work flawlessly!
Thanks for evrything.
Hi TOM! Cobalt78 is right, why can't we translate it in french too. I got some files but I don't really know how to do it. If somebody can help me. I got some french files like PPC_FRA_GSM_VGA_VR.BIN but I don't know which one to use for translation.
Hi,
I bought an HTC p3600 last week and upgraded it WM6 for no obvious reason at the time. I tried over 6 different ROMs, and no offense to the beloved cookers, i couldn't stand the bugs, so I downgraded to WM5 again. The only things I'm missing from WM6 are the task manager menu on the top right of today menu (xBotton), which was extremly handy, the lovely big TouchPad and KeyPad, keyboards which Bepe has put in his ROMs, which are very good for writing messages with one hand, and the quick search in emails, while you typed your search string while in the inbox or any other folders. The last but the least is of coures, HTC home which is so good looking and handy.
Now is there anyway i could install these on WM5? I need cracked versions of course, as i'm leaving in Iran and due to lovely embargos getting worse every day I have no means to pay for stuff. So pls comment.

Try using the Dopod WM6 ROM or search this forum for the cab files you want.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319125&highlight=task+manager
Here is one task manager, i used search-> advanced search to find this
edit: here is the newest one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329922&highlight=new+taskmanager
Use the advanced search function of the forum and your find all you need - you seem to be very familiar with searching so I wont explain that too!!
i turn from 5 to 6 too, nothing changed but good looking.
what is the bugs some people always saying? can someone give me a example?

One example is that ActiveSync was loosing it's connections in one of the cooked ROM's. That's not a problem if you use it only as phone but not handy when you sync mail from Outlook etc.
It's a big bug, but within a day it was fixed in that ROM and I could choose to use other ROM too.
The forum is called XDA Developers and that means bugs, but lastest developments too. You can't ask a bug free ROM incl. the lastest software. If you want that bug free ROM, maybe you consider an official build or consider another sort of phone like a Nokia 3310.
OR
Define your most important feautures and select one which has those features working. Report the bugs in the other features, but don't complain about them.

I did installed successfully, without any trick or crack the HTC X-Button 1.5 onto my wm5 official Qtek ROM on my Wizard.
So you can definitely have it on your wm5 ROM, just try to find the cab on the forum, it is somewhere there.
If you don't find it PM me, I will upload it for you.
To the attention of Eqbal
Hey dude, got your PM.
As requested, find herewith the X-button 1.5 that I'm using on my wm5 wizard.
Enjoy!

Hello
Ive just got the HTC Touch and its the first time I use a WM phone.
I feel there are many options missing and I'd love some help from you guys. this is my first post.
First is there a way we can create a shortcut that directly starts a new SMS msg to send ?
How do I make some programs start automatically as windows starts ?
The built-in calculator is the ugliest thing ever, i want an easy to use calc and not scientific , not necessarily loaded with options. I used calcium for N95 i loved it it was just perfect and straight to the point. ( http://www.mtvoid.com/calcium/ )
what a good registry editor for WM ?
......eum , ill add more questions later
hope u guys can help
edit: Also how can i add more profiles ? like beep once and such ?

Hi
First of all, welcome!
Then please READ here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elf
or here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elfin
depending on your device
Good luck,
Welcome to xda
Firstly we have a Q&A section here on xda. if you have questions, please post them there.
Secondly:
As orb has already stated just about anything you can ever imagine can be found in the wiki, as he included some links to get you started.
Thirdly (Yes i'm getting somewhere keep reading )
Shortcuts can be created to create new sms's
you will need to know how to make .lnk files which are simply pure text files containing a path, read on here.
To make programs start up with windows a link to the program needs to be placed in the windows\start up\ folder
Try total commander for a registry editor\ advanced file explorer
For programs check freeware websites such as these.
HTC Tasks - an application using the Sense SDK to manage your Outlook tasks
I always wondered why my HD2 did not come with a replacment app for the stock tasks application, especially since Sense replaces almost everything. Anyway, I downloaded eboelzner's Sense SDK and startet writing this little app today.
Requirements:
Windows Phone 6.x
.netCF 3.5
(W|Q)VGA device
Current features (very basic):
Add Task
Localization (English, German, Spanish; auto-detect language)
Sense UI
change task status
change importance
change subject
Future Features:
Settings
Change other task properties (description, due date, etc.)
maybe other languages
images showing importance
Localization:
Oh and I would be glad if someone could take a look at my Spanish localization and tell me if something's wrong (my grammar is miserable and I'm not familiar with the Spanish techno-babble) and maybe somebody wants to translate this into other languages as well. So please contact me via PM if you are interested in helping me.
Download:
not yet available
Excellent! Sounds very promising. I also wondered why the Tasks had been left untouched by HTC....

More than 4 years here and don't know how to PM... So here I am, ready to check the traslation. Spanish is my native language
Got your PM and thank you. I will send you the localization files before I upload the app, ok?
Looks good. But arent there already apps like this one? Ptasks etc.
Always good with alternatives tho
In my opinion pTasks is not very fingerfriedly, which is pretty important if you have a device with capacitive touchscreen.

HTC Task sounds great. I use the WinMo-Task every day... it works very good but its so ugly.
A question: Do you want the important tasks to be colored?
I encountered a really strange bug. When I change the tasks StartDate and Update the task (Task.Update()) I get a Win32 Exception. Has any other .NET CF developer an idea what could be causing this?
edit: found out what the problem was. StartDate has (logically) be before DateCompleted.
Makes me wish I knew more about coding. I'm useless when it comes to that kind of thing...
This is really great! Thanks for your efforts.
I don't know if you'd be interested in this or not, but I'd love to see an app like this that can be used as a tab in Sense.
Thanks again!

same here i would love to see it as a tab but what you are creating should do fine for me.
Hi,
looks very promising and I'm looking forward to the first available version to give it a try.
bye
Sven
I'd like to see command line support to use it with Advanced Home Tab (Cookies Home Tab addon) to have directly access to a task.
Looks great!
I will do the translation to Dutch if you want?
Joris
Just to inform you: Advanced Home Tab for CHT adds the possibility to show tasks in the calendar-panel in home tab, too! You have simply to swype it to the right to show your tasks and swype to the left to go back to the appointments!
There are other programs here (ptasks and tasks manila) but the development on both of those has stopped. So hopefully you can finish off your vision before you get too busy working on something else.
You might consider making an actual tasks tab for Sense UI. That's what I've been looking for. Being integrated with Sense means I don't have to start up another application. Just a suggestion.
I'm looking forward to testing this out.
Nice work. If want, Im offer translating to Czech.
Looks very nice. I can translate this to Romanian.
