Ooo, very cool - I wonder if my Orange branded device will work with that or if I'll have to go down the unlock route to use a cooked ROM instead?
Does anyone know if this gives us TF3D 2.5?

Great - thanks for posting. Im running my backups now.
Question - would a full spb backup restore from 6.1 restore to 6.5? I've never done this before!

Double post - deleted.

Yeah, I'm really curious about this as well.

Its TF3D 2.1 (with weather on the homepage)
I used PIM Backup which seemed to handle contacts/sms/calender stuff ok.
Phone decided to hang for a bit once it'd completed the restore but a swift reboot sorted that out.
Now the fun job of re-applying apps/config etc!
Pretty painless flash and seems to work ok - slightly more sluggish than WM 6.1 but hopefully re-applying config tweaks will sort that out.

have u checked the animations !!! in .38 u will see no animation effects
.38 is animated while scrolling sms messages, I havent noticed that before but the overal performance felt slower than the stock TF3D so i already gave my device a hard reset again.
I extracted the O2 Manila one, checked on my device it works, please check if it works on other devices to..

Thanks all for this great collection- one quick question though. Can all of the manila versions coexist? Has anyone tried this? I will definitely give it a go....
Yes and No... Some can coexisting together but others will make your Manila action slow as hell.
Great work people.
Could you point me in the direction of any stock ROMs, so I can do my own extracts too?
I tried some, and can't wait to see some edited versions Specially the Orange one looks nice, and has a slightly different layout on some tabs. Unfortunately, some tabs/features won't work when you're not using an Orange network.

Still sticking with you and Stylez's 1.5 but, as stated, thanks for keeping on keeping on for those who need it. Kudos (not the granola bar)
Hey RickWyatt thank you for the rom. Quick question: What happened to the menu animations? You know, like when you're in file explorer, you press the 2nd softkey, and the menu slides up? Where did it go? How do I get it back?
Also, Ive noticed that the Office mobile panel has the office logo. So, my other question is, how do I change the icon of a panel? For example, I want to change the colorless Windows Media player icon to something else. please see below:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE]
Animate from 0 to 6
to chang the icon use chome config hope this helps
Just an opinion, but maybe you guys should offer two version of the ROM, one with the patched SPL in it and one without. Not everybody wants a non-stock SPL on their phone, especially for warranty issues
So... what software is in this ROM? What Java version?

Do you mean your screen goes white when it times out naturally? If so, I had the same problem when I installed Windows Live. Uninstalling it fixed the white screen issue. But I only had this problem with the Rose ROM...never had it with 6.1.
Edit: I'm referring to the menu animations that are unique to the Rose Rom. The animations you pointed me to are already available in a regular 6.1 Rom via settings>Acessibility... I'm talking about the way the menu slides up when you're in for example, file explorer or Wmp. I miss that. I think it's still in the older Roms..
I enabled animations in my original 1.3 ROM because I think they're neat.I dont know why these guys disabled them... I forget what the registry entry is right now, but it's somewhere in HKLM/System/GDI or something.... Under GDI anyway.

So have you found out how to get them back? I don't want to flash my phone again...
Edit: I ended up flashing my Dash back to NRGZ28's original rom.
Edit2: The registry values are exactly tthe same..
Edit3: I flashed back to this rom.. It's better than the NRGZ28's original in terms of usability.. But I still want the eye candy. If anyone finds out how to get back the animations, please tell me!

Hi, I'm new to all of this, where should I start?

So basically, I'm a noob to all of this upgrading and ROM stuff, is there anywhere i can go to get started; or like a step-to-step guide on how get WM 6.5.1 on my HTC Touch (with Bell)?
EDIT: Thanks guys, I can't believe i have WM 6.5.1 running on my phone now!

use the newest basefiles. (111609) i think?
use that default.txt.
what does your error message say?
did you change the panels?

Yes, I did change the panels. There is no error message but after launching HaRet, it starts going through all the initialization and it stops, as if it was waiting for input "\#". I tried 1 2 and 3 for the panels and I think that 2 is the one that worked (no more flashing white screen).
I will give 111609 a shot and see if that works. Thanks for the suggestion.
Nevermind, I got it running....
I just forgot to rename the rootfs.... silly me
Thanks for the help though!

Be prepared for a lot of tweaking and backup your contacts with activesync or if your not a power user just install a program called pim backup so you can backup everything to your storage card incase you need to restore it all back if you have to format your phone (which is common with windows 6.5+) Getting windows 6.1 with spb mobile 3.5 would most likely be the best stable combo in my opinion

Manilla 2.5/2.6

Can someone please post a guide to installing TouchFLO 3D 2.5 or 2.6 on a "clean" rom I have Miri's standard 28011 rom and have customized alot in 4 days and do not want to reinstall just to play with TouchFLO 3D. is there a cab or files to copy to do it, or is there a way to dump my current rom 100% and restore it later.
help us, please!
AFAIK nobody has gotten this working for the HD and generally if you want manila you need to flash to a rom with manila cooked in. (I believe it is possible, but as I say I haven't seen it for the HD).
You can use an app like Sprite Backup to do a complete backup of your rom and all settings and if you do want to return to your old rom, just flash back and restore the backup and all is back to as it was.
Thanks for your answer.
I don't know exactly what was FireSokar searching for.
New roms with wm 6.5 are too slow to use HD in daily jobs.
So I must return to an old wm 6.1 ita rom ...

I don't need wm 6.5 and htc messaging, new notifications, tweet, footprints and beautiful but slooooow phone and turbo battery shutdown.
I need only an ITA fast phone and longlife battery.

I would like to back-up my current rom for just in case. plus i like my settings right now becuase i get full 3g with my tzones package .... how can i go about backing up my current rom?
also in yalls personal experience whats the best cooked rom out there?
also could i get weather to show on my today screen with my current WM6.1 running touchflo 3d 2.1?
any other cool stuff/tips/tricks for this phone i should know about?

I would use SPB Backup. It will backup all your contacts, settings, programs, etc... It even will allow you to restore all this when you upgrade to different roms. There is a setting for Rom upgrade mode.

Can't really say there is one rom that is better than the rest. You are just going to have to see which is best for you. Personally, I've tried Energy rom, Valkyrie, Josh's perfect black, athine, itje's, and a few others, but they all had there ups and downs. sense 2.1 is the fastest out there though, and the most stable. The 2.5 is pretty cool, but too slow for my taste.

and thinking ill probably try it out soon....
what does the WWE stand for?
World Wide English.
SPB backups will not back up your rom per se I dont think. They will back up all the stuff that you put on your rom since you got the phone though.
There is a way to back up the stock rom but it involves some specialized tools that are available in the rom section. To restore your phone to what it is today after installing a cooked rom you would have to flash back the factory rom then restore your backup from SPB or sprite.
^^^ Thanks!!!
Downloading EnergyROM "Phoenix 2" right now...
gonna do some researching in the rom section to try and find away to backup my full rom. because i really love the fact of having full 3g internet with only my tzones package... hopefully someone can chime in about backing up my rom.

SPB Backup will only backup your programs, data, music, etc, but NOT the rom itself. Really, all you need to do is backup your data, and that way, you can just reload the default rom if you need to, then restore your data after that.
SPB is not free though....Microsoft has a free program that also works well called myphone.
Oh, and btw, I just flashed that same Rom (EnergyROM Phoenix 2) and lovin it.
Backup of Rom...
Did a little searching, and did come across this. I personally haven't tried it, but it sounds like it should work.
