Official HTC Touch Pro 2 ROM - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I see from the HTC website that a new ROM is available :
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=717&news_id=300
Has anyone got a download of this, as my TP2 is Vodafone branded!
Thanks

Cheers! Downloading just now! Will let you know how it goes!

Me Too!!
I'd love to get my hands on this too!! Mine is T-Mobile branded and the serial gets rejected.
EDIT: The new ROM has been posted here but you still can not download if you do not have a premium account with RapidShare.

Think there must be a lot of people downloading. Im crawling at 23kbps - normally get about 350. It's dropped a lot in the last half hour.

Liking it so far. Icons are updated, but homescreen isn't really changed. Weather affects the whole homescreen, so when going back to it, just now the whole screen is rainingv - quite nice. Settings menu is much better. When going into settings for the today screen, HTC Sense is listed, but the homescreen doesn't match that of the pictures of the Leo, with the contacts and favourites on the home screen.
Nice so far.
(There is a radio app)

Does it have manila 2.5 or 2.1?

I managed to download it on the rapidshare link.
I have the TMO US version, do you know if I will have problem with the keybord layout after installing it?
Anybody with the TMo version installed it yet?

Just installed the (non-branded) upgrade, and i can see there's no manila 2.5... It's just the 2.1version!!!!!!!!!
Personnaly, i don't get it, what can be the reason not to provide tp2 users with it... seriously, i think manila 2.1 has no use at all.
Well i just spent 2hours setting & sync-ing my phone right... for nothing
BTW be carefull with the "myphone" service: i've lost near 1/3rd of my text messages because of it

Yeah, I don't understand why they didn't upgrade to 2.5. Is anyone else having trouble using the facebook integration? I can use the facebook app fine, but cannot login to facebook to link contacts to their facebook. I get a Input error - connection failed.

WM 6.5 Update
Hi, my ROM version is 1.19.401.1 and apparently the update is not suitable for me. Can anyone explain/help me with this? I've already sent a message to HTC trough their web page but still no answer.
Many thanks in advance,

Already a sticky there in "ROM development".

What was the name of this app?

I lost this .cab for this app I got from one of Custels threads but for the life of me I cant find it again. I think it was called O2 or something that allowed you to have shortcuts on the Todays screen with tabs and I think it allowed you to end running programs also.
Anyone know where i can find it or whats its called?
Thanks

Sounds like O2 plus
Thanks for the quick reply but I dont believe thats it. The program allowed you to have app shortcuts for whatever you had loaded on your phone. It also allowed you to have these shortcuts seperated by tabs. choice of large or small shortcuts etc etc. The close software function was on the lower right corner and looked like a white ball and when you clicked on it it gave you the close apps or configuration options. Hope thats a bit more clear.
Does it look the third bit of the screen in this post?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1259295#post1259295
If so - that's O2 plus
If it is -- there's a download of the CAB later on in that thread - about 2 pages on
may be iLuncher?
O2Plusv2.3
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=37720&d=1177340400
I think this is o2 plus, if you can wait till later I have a cab for version 2.3 which I use, it also allows profiles etc on today screen.
I do believe you are talking about SPB pocket plus.
This may be the one.
It was o2 plus... Thanks a million guys!

New to HD HELP!

Hi,
please help an HD newbie...
I like the standard TouchFlo on my, more or less, still standard HD but would simply like a plain black background on all the Tabs/Pages or whatever (The home/weather/ music etc ).
Can anyone give me a simple cab or something equally straighforward to do this?
Also, I have a different contacts program running (funcontacts) It is called fine when I call it from contacts via phone etc but NOT from the People tab, All People button. How do I get my HD to do this please.
Any help much appreciated!

The cab below should give you the same background image across all TouchFLO tabs. Install it and soft-reset. As far as I know you cannot re-map the "All People" softkey from the People tab...
Thanks
Thanks CW,
Going out for an hour but I'll try when I get back. Thanks again,
Scott
No Go
Thanks CW but I'm afraid it only partially worked. All the tab screens went black but the ino at the top of each went really weird and cr*ppy!
Anymore ideas anyone please.

I should have looked earlier at what rom you are running. You have quite an older version of TouchFLO in your rom. The cab I posted was intended for a much newer one. That's why it didn't work as I described it would. You could look into Maxycy's software to customize your TouchFLO. Other than that, I don't know what else still supports the older version.
Stupid question?
Why is it an old ROM in a brand new phone?
Shouldn't it be bang up to date? I had to wait for delivery because they were waiting for 'new' phones!
Am I just stupid?

No, HTC / the vendor is. Said you had a 1.19.xxxx rom when they have up to 1.59.xxxx released now. You should look into updating it. Are you interested in custom roms? If not, you should still look into updating to the latest official rom
in fact even the most recent stock roms (provided by operator) are often outdated compared to the roms you can find here (@xda)
they are mostly based:
newer builds of wm6.1 or wm6.5beta
some parts from other (newer) devices
optimzed and customized by the authors
i suggest you to read the hd section to see what u can do with your phone
Will do guys, thanks.
BTW, got my black screen on all tabs! Just had to do a bit of work and use Manila Editor. I will take a look at custom ROMs but they scare me
Maybe I'll pluck up the courage, just worried I'll brick my device!
Thanks again.

Flashing is easy if you are well informed beforehand. Just do the research before you flash. Read the Wiki and my guide on flashing roms. Links are in my signature.

Manila 2.1?

Excuse me, but I can't help wondering, what's the difference between manila 2.0 and manila 2.1. I'm using Dutty's 3.3 and it says 2.0. But I thought that Dutty was using the latest one, so I'm wondering what's 2.1.
manila 2.1 latest build
seems 2.0 is better than 2.1
2.1 have minor issue regards sending sms
Besides the sms issue, are there other differences? ^^
afaik there are more slots in the start tab for more program shortcuts.
am curious to know if there are other differences other than what has already been mentioned...
does nobody know?! It cant be just that HTC decided to take V2.0 and put in an SMS bug just for us!
is there performance/speed improvements? something like that?
i work with the 2.1 manila,work fine just sms issue like sayd before,bud the tmobile theme is very nice,graphics are beautifull...
just look HERE to see manila 2.1 theme t mobile original,wallpaper is mine and tabs are changed bud top curtain ,clock,5day wheater,mail icons etc are standard tmobile theme(unchanged),much nicer then before a think.
Can you tell me where did you get the top bar icons from? Thanks

What exactly is the sms issue?
Does 2.1 have the new contact sheet etc... or is that still 2.0?

the only difference that has been noticed so far is more icons in the programs tab. (30)
the SMS bug is a problem that many (but not all) people are having where the manila texting interface will allow the person to send a text message but not reply after a new message has been recieved.
A number of causes have been identified -
+ at the beginning of the number
GSM preferred setting
and which mobile network you use.
the actual cause has not yet been identified and nobody has yet been able to fix it.

Thanks for the taskbar
I have the same bug in my kitchen rom ! How to fix this bug ? Thanks
Are threre any differences in functionality, new features something like that betwet 2.0 and 2.1 versions of Manila?
Honestly befor few days i flash my device with latest ENERGY room WM 6.5 the room is with manila 2.1 and i don`t know why all peoples claim that have problem with the SMS
but i can tell you that I DON`T HAVE ANY PROBLEM with the MANILA.. SMS or anything else also the room work like a charm and is very fast
I use this latest room from around one week AND I DONT HAVE WORD`s is faster than many other room`s ive been tried and WM 6.1 also
Maybe position right now is that the latest ENERGY room 6.5 is the best avalible coocked room till now!
I don`t have any BUG`s with the room also like i say is more than fast..
The battery is good enoght i dont see my battery to dry faster..
I don`t know why many peoples complain about alot problems and bugs..
Also in the Keyboard the Space work everytime im using it
I don`t know what is the diference because i never try manila 2.0 i write you to let you know that is not true about 2.1 manila that is full with bugs..

congratulation! you have a fully working manila 2.1. consider yourself lucky. now go buy yourself a beer.
i, on the other hand (along with quite a number of people), aren't so lucky. manila 2.1 refuse to work properly when we put it in our device. mind you, the sms bug is very real.
and please don't suggest hard reset, soft reset, reflash and so forth. i've did it all and still got bitten by the sms bug. all ROMs that runs on manila 2.1 that i've tried gets me the sms bug. and i've tried more than i could count.
so i just avoid ROMs that has manila 2.1. works wonders so far for me
This is very strange not only with the new manila im talking for the whole apps tweaks and etc.. on the same time ALL peoples here have the same Device but the real answer maybe is NO they are not the same..
Many peoples have problems with some app that other peoples run without a problem!
This is strange and i think we don`t know and explore everything in the WM room`s YET
Like i say yes maybe im Lucky because i don`t have any BUGs on my device..
But we must to think why this heppaning Always when something heppand have a REASON nothing heppand without a reason!
This mean we have alot to learn for WM in the future

Appointment: Where are my categories?! (new official rom HTC Sense 2.5)

Hello,
I noticed that when I create a new appointment with the HTC Sense UI I do not see my categories, but I see default one instead (None, Business, Holiday, ...). However I do see the correct categorie if I display the detail of an appointement I created with Outlook.
Am I the only one experiencing this behaviour? As you can guess this is really annoying for anyone using categories with appointments.
Thank you,
Same here; that's more than an annoyance.
Any way to replace the new appointment link in the sense UI to the win mo one?
This lack of categories really get on my nerves.
I just can't understand why it is not working; this is a professionnal device for *** sake!
Maybe this "official" ROM isn't so official (or final) as we're led to believe.
Actually it might as well be the official one, because I did download mine from the T-Mobile website and I have a hell of alot problems..... Idk about categories, but once I get in my messages if I wanna go back the phone freezes, sometimes the phone just freezes out of nowhere and the only way to fix it is soft reset. I hate the new software, now im looking to go back to 6.1 or a cooked one. Also my phone is really slow, it takes it about 10 mins after a restart to show me the little quick menu (top to the right)... so idk what the hell is wrong with them but i dont like it....

Is that the one with Sense 2.5 (with the three quick-links on the home page), or the "normal" WM6.5, without the quick-links?

Just uninstall the apps you installed one by one till it comes back up. If that doesnt work there is always a hard reset
