All,
Sorry for the delay on this one, but I have had a few things going on as well. In any case,
ENJOY IT!!!!!!
[highlight]Note: This is a UC Rom. When the zip is decompressed, you will see a folder called XDA-UC that has a bunch of cabs inside. Place that folder (and all of its contents in the root of your Storage Card. Right after the initial boot is done, soft reset the device. When it starts up again, UC will start by itself saying that it will install all the contents in the UC folder. Be patient since it will seem as if the device weren't doing anything. When its done, it will ask you if you want to reset it. The whole installation of cabs takes between 5 and 7 minutes (because of Manila)[/highlight]
changelog:
*Brand New Build 21887. [highlight]Keep in mind that this is the old style of bottom and top bars and with less new stuff. However this is more stable.[/highlight]
*Added the missing Phone Codes folder from 28205
*Dialer no longer has the issue of the "side bar".
*Still cannot include ezinput (looking for a solution)
*Included Hero Style Titanium found here. It is located in the UC folder, so if you don't want it, simply erase all the files that have the name CHero or Hero on them. (thanks chriscsh)
*Removed Rhodium notification enhancements because of some graphical glitches with the rom.
*Skinned top bar (nice looking icons at last )
Post some feedback and Enjoy it!
I cannot put pictures right now, but might do it some other time.
*Manila Home Tab Weather does not work out of the box. First, set up the weather in M2D's weather tab (choose your city), then install the attached cab, and finally Soft Reset. (thanks codf4ther)
First Post mine ftw
Downloading now, looking forward to a try, thanks!!
Egzthunder- Is there anyway you can put the Hero Style Titanium on Build 28205? I'm really liking the newer builds with the start menu on the bottom bar.
Thanks

I will save you some work. Install the cab in this post first and use all the cabs that have either Hero or CHero from the UC folder in this rom. I honestly did not like it all too much, which is why I might not make another build with it. It has potential though, I just don't think it's worth it.

Maybe you are going about it the wrong way by trying to integrate a cab. vin made a post here saying that there are two OEMs required to get it working:
Package_Mega_Shared Modules (for keyboard )
Package_Mega_Touch_Options (for Manila slyder)
I'm not sure where to tell you get those bundles, but they might be in the upload that vin made here.
I am having the issue of tap here to launch TF etc....
I remember this happening to folks who installed the cdma weather fix before setting up in weather tab, however I have not loaded it yet and am seeing this issue...
Should I install the fix .cab and see if it fixes itself? Or did I possibly install the manilla .cabs in the wrong order? If there is a right order??
Thanks!
I am having the same issue, Tap for Touchflo hangs... Tried two (2) different versions of 2d.

You mean you are not using the xda-uc folder that is in the zip file? When you uncompress the zip, you will see a folder called xda-uc which you have to place in the root of your storage card. After your first boot, reset the device and UC will launch by itself. There is no need to manually install anything.

See above post. I will update the main post to reflect the fact that this is a UC rom, which I forgot to write.

Thanks man, I appreciate it. I'm going to install tomorrow and see how it works for me.
Followed your folder instructions, just wasn't patient enough, it installed properly, testing it now. Thanks for your work!
stable is first thing we need for a cell phone. five stars
Thanks for the tip thunder, I extracted the cabs and was installing them individually. Can't wait to finish my work and get working on this : )
This build is QUICK!!!
I've been running this rom for about 24 hours now and very impressed. I have installed the ezinput cabs and they seem to be working. The rom is fast, responsive and stable. I have not found anything not functioning. My only negative thus far is the top notification bar when you have missed calls or messages is very small, making it hard to tap with my big fingers. Yes it must be running REALLY well if that's my only complaint after 24 hours. I can't evaluate battery life yet because constant installing and tinkering isnt the proper way to test, but i will report back.
any screenshots???

Thanks!
I always feel like such an outsider way out here in AT&T land! Thanks for the special attention. Downloading now!
Here's where I get to show my stupidity!
All the other ROM I have flashed have come with a utility to run the process. I tried replacing a previous rar file with this one and running the utility I had, but it changed nothing. I have read all the guides, the step by steps, etc, but the info seems to be for full packetsm not how to insert a new rar. I am dense. I am uneducated, I am sorry!
Thanks Shodowmite. It's good to have someone taking care of us ATT dudes.
What is the difference with other ROM ?
Is there something specific for AT&T ?
Sorry if the question is stupid, but I don't know AT&T particularities... ;-)

ok, have you flashed hard-spl on your phone before? If not, search for it and flash it! Next, you need winrar or some other file extraction program to extract the rar file (a compressed folder) to get the files out. Then you'll find the installer files inside, you run the exe... Hope this helps.

Mainly the big thing is this includes by default the sms/mms and data/proxy settings for cingular/att's network. You can use this rom with another carrier, but you'll need to delete those settings or install you own over top of them.
It's the little things
Thanks for the patience with my idiocy. I got WinRar and am flashing now.

We all have to learn at some point, I was no better when I started long ago... Don't worry about it and just learn at your own pace... Hope you like the rom!
I've updated to Shadowmite 1.1, while this is still a "beta" if you will, it's perfectly stable and appears good. Use this one if you want the HTC Home Plugin available... I've also removed windows live and streaming media in this version:
http://rapidshare.com/files/43857196/Shadowmite_1.1_beta_0.rar.html
Thanks. Good job. Downloading.
Ive had it running for a few days now and have noticed marked improvement on battery life. My only challenge has been running out of program memory during IE sessions. I run MemMaid and clean up, then I can go again, but I'm wondering if I have something set wrong.
Hmm, not sure, but I will be releasing another version maybe tomorrow with a increased available program memory using a 4mb pagepool instead of the stock 6mb.
Slightly off topic but is there a way / application to load apps & information in one go after flashing a new rom or is installing all the cabs one by one the only way.
Thanks in advance
S
Well, dunno if it helps much, but my HTCustom app, which is in my roms has a CABS button which allows you to choose a folder and it starts all cabs in it to be installed for you... but it needs human interaction.
In other news, the rom is ready and uploading now...
Version 1.1 is posted, now with 4mb pagepool, should increase your program memory a little and make it perform a little more quickly. I think this is about perfect now, let me know!
Nice ROM, but...

Hi, A very nice looking ROM - for which... thanks!
BUT... I keep getting... "An unhandled error has occured in the shell. Attempting to restart the shell [ok]". Soon as I hit the OK, phone reboots.
Now, to help u diagnose... I have installed NOTHING on top of your ROM. Only change I made from stock is I removed your Cingular settings .cab and installed the standard HTC ones for my UK Vodaphone network. (Actually, I was getting this error BEFORE I even removed the Cingular .cab)
Only other thing I can say is, I also unchecked the BatteryStatus plugin from the Today items (as I don't like it or need it... or do I, with this ROM? Maybe I will re-enable it a while...)
That's all. I'll try and stick with this ROM as it's the kind of thing I've been working on for myself... nice, clean and tight... but I've had no time recently to develop ROMs so it's easier for me to run with your work and let you do the head scratching!! Still, a nice effort so far - thanks again!
Moz.
Weird, I've never seen that error. I hate to say it, but could you start with the rom freshly flashed and tell me anything I can do to cause this to occur? Or is it random? I do run the battery status plugin on mine (very useful info, especially the current draw) but I've just removed it to see if I can get the error.
Let me know if you have any procedure I can try to get this error.
Also, you removed the cing.cab and then installed yours and ran it? That should be fine as the only cingular branding is that cab being ran after the welcome.
Fixed it... I think!
Ok, so it seems to be your 1.51 version of the HTC X-Button task manager. I always set the "End progs by tapping X" (not the default tap-and-hold option..) The previously mentioned error only ever happens when I'm tapping X to close down something or other... So, I installed my own .cab of this app (v1.5 build 29196) and all is now fine!
I'll probably do a fresh flash of your Rom tomorrow (its 2am now here) just to be sure, but I think I'm right in saying that your implementation of the x-button app in rom does not give the x-button icon in /start/settings/system... (i now have this by virtue of my reinstalling the app...) I think this icon *is* needed because if you choose to turn off the x-button "shortcut" thingy in the today screen there would otherwise be no way to get back to the x-button option settings.
Hope this helps...
Moz.
a-ha, I got the error now myself, but only if set to close app on clicking the X and furthermore then closing a system app that is running from shell32.exe. For some reason my entries of immune apps aren't being taken as immune. I'll look into this. Good catch!
The program however is in settings, system and is listed as task manager...
Ok, here is the fix, just install this cab (reg entries only) and it'll be working after the next soft reset... I'll figure out why this didn't work from the main hive before the next release.
Here's a new ROM for the Excalibur cooked on the new 20282 core and the system partition from the newest HTC smartphone, the S740 "Rose".
This is a WWE (world wide English) only ROM.
Applications included in this ROM are:
- HTC Album
- Tegic T9 with English available
- TMobile Dash keyboard layout file by default
- Adobe Reader LE
- HTC Audio Manager
- Automatic GPRS settings application
- Windows Live
- Windows Live Messenger
- HTC Streaming Media
- Office Mobile
- HTC Weather
- The new HTC dialer application
- HTC CommManager
- This ROM is "UC" (user customization) capable!
- Chome Configurator
- So much more...
This ROM includes the new sliding panels from HTC, which open up a world of opportunities for customization.
INSTRUCTIONS for flashing:
1. Run the downloaded exe. It should automatically unpack and present a black command prompt window.
2. Make sure you remove your storage card from the phone before the next steps.
3 .Follow the instructions in the black window. Do NOT reboot when the SDA unlocker tells you to reboot the phone. It's not necessary.
4. You might get a prompt asking you if you want to run the spl program. Just say yes. At that point you should get a white screen.
5. If for any reason you're not seeing a white screen, you did something wrong and you need to try again.
6. Flash the ROM following the instructions in the flashing utility.
You can expect the phone to be "stuck" on the HTC logo for about 2 1/2 minutes the first time. After that, it should only take about 40-45 seconds for the phone to reboot.
INSTRUCTIONS for recovery in case something goes wrong:
Turn your phone completely off. Pushing the camera button in, plug in your usb cable. The tricolor, bootloader screen will come up and you can flash your regular OEM ROM which can be downloaded from one of the stickies.
I recommend flashing the modified bootloader made by jockeyw2001. It's attached to this post.
What it does is, it CID unlocks your phone, so you don't have to use the softSPL everytime you want to flash a ROM. It also makes recovery from a bad flash much easier, where you dont have to hunt for your original manufacturer's ROM to load in order to resurect the phone.[/CENTER]

time to test it out :O
Cool...
I'll wait for teh superlite before I test it though.
many thanks for this...
Appreciate it.
If you guys/gals find any bugs, NOW is the time to report them, before I release the next version... Thanks.
Nice rom, it seems really fast man. Thanks for this once again.
USA t9 on ROM seem to have problems? here's the solution:

Thanks for putting this out! The ROM does seem a bit quicker and I'm not seeing any bugs.
Wow, I'm still running Rick's Kavana Remake V18... I've been waiting until most of the bugs have been worked out, but now that you mention a superlite version tempts me even more. Keep up the good work man!

Hmm interesting. I installed that cab over 1.4 and the tab key DID behave like it's supposed to. I will make sure to integrate this fix in the next release (including the lite release).
I went to find the t9 file mainly because there was no predictive text showing up for me after I flashed this ROM twice. No matter the cause, this seemed to fix it up. One other thing though, the ROM doesn't seem to make any changes when I add the cpr entry to make it show the day of the week, is there something I'm doing wrong?
Last 'problem' is whenever I choose Chome slim, I never have gotten a slim programs list like I see in your screens. Does my phone hate me?
Thanks for your work by the way

Hmmm I never use predictive text, so I guess I never noticed that anomaly. The cab should fix it though...
These new ROMs have a different system for editing CPR files. The CPR file is actually declared in the home.xml file found in application data/home. You have to edit one of those files, declare a custom cpr file and then go drop that file in the \windows directory. OR, you could just edit the HTC cpr file that are already in the windows directory.
Again, with the slim panels, you have to make sure the OS knows about them. THe easiest way is to rename the slim CPRs to the HTC cprs and just overwrite the htc cprs in \windows.
is there any way to set the directory in HTC Audio Manager?
Superlite?! Inquiring minds want to know.

Think, it's the last my work for Diamond. Going to change device. So, thank for everybody for help & good community.
Also, thanks for donations. It's the good indication, that somebody like "Nataly".
Hope, this project will live own life. I haven't any negative opinion about any "forks" or new projects, "Nataly"'s based.
Good luck for everybody!

ATTENTION!
Taked out files:
ConnectionSetup's provizion.zip - base of providers.
Part of Opera broser - Opera_addon.
Not see the reason to keep about 4M of "dead cargo" in the ROM.
Now - possible to keep it at the Internal Storage.
Mark CAB files in Internal Storage/_Install as READ-ONLY! or you can loose them after install the ROM or hard reset.
And don't forget to make HardReset after install.

Info below - for cookers only! You will need hardreset after it! Because your notification system will be damaged. Do it without reboot & don't forget disconnect the PC cable after copy mxip.notify.vol
A:
You need to add your app to M$ event system. (event "wokeup" - is one of standards)
Standard file of notifications - sys/shell/mxip.notify.vol
Steps:
Copy mxip.notify.vol to the \temp, for example. (at the device)
Open it by dbExplorer .
As Type: "external database volume"
Path for "external volume file" now: \temp\mxip.notify.vol
You will see 1 type db ~ 8-10 strings (don't remember exactly)
Make backup of selected database.
Then open \mxip.notify.vol (working file)
Make restore db from backup (erase?-yes)
We have the standard (clean) events system for editing now.
Use FDC taskmanager (included in "Nalaly") for it.
Open the "notifications" bookmark.
You can delete:
ceipui.exe strings,
one of repllog.exe (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...3&postcount=81)
And can add own string, of course.
I did 2 scripts for events: "wokeup" & "net shutdows"
You limited by your fantasy only.
Next step - make backup again, after changes (the working db - DB_notify_events)
As selected db also.
Then open again "non touched" \temp\mxip.notify.vol
Restore the last backup to it.
We have edited mxip.notify.vol for kitchen now.
Fuu-uh.
Interesting...hope there's good support . Will check it out.
the down and let me just say that it is super, super fast.
Congratulations and thank you for your work
will check it out & report any bugs in the next couple of days
I've only had my Diamond for a month. Have been using Dutty ROMs the whole time but since he is stopping with them I thought I'd look around at soemthing else.
I was reading your other thread last night and was going to start playing with that kitchen, but I might just have to give this a try!
I've flashed it and testing now.
First thing is, no matter how many times I run connection setup, it never works. It appears to work, then does a soft reset. But when I check Connectins > Connections > Advanced, there are no connections setup.
I am with Australia > Telstra. I have never had this problem with other ROMs.
The one that pops up automatically, seems to keep appearing after every soft reset. Yet every time it doesn't create any settings.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Connection Setup but still nothing.
I'll have to go back to Dutty until this is fixed which is a shame as this ROM is VERY fast! Great work, I'll stick around, hopefully I can help find more bugs and get this ROM running sweet
Thanks for info, I'll fix it.
this rom is the fastest i've ever tried! keep up the good work! im waiting for the connection setup bug to be fixed
Pity, but connection setup didn't want to work normally outside the ROM.
But not the huge basefile (provision.zip)
So, I did rebuild the ROM & distributive at all.
Uploading now.
Excellent, I'll flash as soon as it's uploaded!
Thanks
Thanks for attentive look!
Your help is important to me: difficult to work without mistakes at all.
.....done, - see the first post.
I've been using this ROM for a week now, I can recommend it to everyone.
It's fast and has no bugs to me (I use a version without Connection Setup).
Furthermore it's a good idea from mondilv to leave the Opera and keyboard out (at least in my version they're out...) so everyone can install it's own version of these programs.

..does this rom include office (excel, winword..)?
Yes, just those two are included from the Office pack
I gave it a try and it really is good, very fast and fluid manila..
The only thing I missed was HTC keyboard, but because it is a light rom, I can understand that... so far, the rom works as it should..41% program memory used on first boot, and 144 mb of ram for storage...lots of reserve, just as i like.
Thumbs up, chef...thanks mondilv

Sure, Opera part & provision.zip are included inside the ROM.
It's possible to use like ordinary rom. (google maps can install later, as simple cab file).
Sdconfig still works, of course.
I didn't include EzInput & XT9_IME packages (htc keyboard) in the repository. I'm not sure, that is the best choice.
Can find more interesting & lightweight "models".
Ok guys, so this is my new thread. I will keep information, screenshots, and files updated here.
IT WORKS!! I've been disassembling and reassembling this cab file for a while now. I finally got it pretty stable. I removed some files that are not needed and added the appropriate files to work on the Excalibur. I tweaked shellres.dll so the Storage Card issue is gone! I also tweaked and reinserted the appropriate CPR files. I replaced the thin looking top bar icons in the original tshres.dll to the 96dpi icons. MUCH BETTER! If you are using Kavana's ROM, disable ClockOnTop as it doesn't display properly. The program seems to uninstall just fine as well if you're worried about that.
Version info:
Version 1.70 works on WM6.5 based WWE ROMS
Version 1.6c works on Kavana and Rose based WWE ROMS
NOTE: PLEASE TEST AT YOUR OWN RISK. THIS APP WILL WORK ON MOST WM6.1 WWE (World Wide English) ROMS. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BRICK YOUR PHONE OR LOSE DATA. ALL PHONES AND ROMS ARE DIFFERENT AND UNKNOWN CONDITIONS MAY OCCUR (you may lose data). Thanks to lukybandit for the original post and enyone else who contributed.
Directions:
- For WM6.5, run 3VO_96DPI_WM65_v1.70.cab or (1.6c for WM6.1)
- Reboot when it asks
- With 1.6c, if your topbar icons appear as white blocks, try running OOK_96DPI_WM61_Patch.cab (and reboot after install)
- Important: Do not run OOK_96DPI_WM61_Patch.cab if your top bar icons appear fine
- To uninstall, go to Remove Programs and uninstall it then REBOOT
- **Note: If upgrading from a previous version, uninstall it first, REBOOT, then install the new version
If you have custom CPR files in the \Windows directory, back them up. This app installed modified CPR files in the \Windows directory to accomodate for the increased screen size and resolution.
Screenshots below:
UPDATE: 1/17/2009, 10:45PM PST, 1.5b works great on ROSE based ROMS! Fixed background misalignment. Note that background image should be 320x240 or so in size. I edited CPR files in \Windows to fix this. If you have a custom CPR file (due to a weather program or something), back it up and then edit the first line and use these values, <Image ID="Background" Opacity="1.0" Top="-17" Width="320" Height="213"/>. Still have the Comm Manager bug in Rose ROMS, working on it.
UPDATE: 1/18/2009, 12:40PM PST, 1.52b for Kavana and 1.53b for ROSE. Fixed some font issues and resized the Rinku topbar icons to fit 96dpi.
UPDATE: 2/21/2009, 10:20PM PST, 1.54 for ROSE ROMS uploaded. Fixed some call screen background problems.
UPDATE: 2/22/2009, 6:30PM PST, 1.55 for ROSE ROMS uploaded. Fixed Opera Mini font problem and adjusted other font sizes. 1.53 for Kavana WM61 ROMS uploaded and also fixed Opera Mini fonts (good find, fliparsenal).
UPDATE: 5/8/2009, 6:20PM PST, 1.6 for ALL WM6.1 ROMS. Comm Manager still not pretty but working on it.
UPDATE: 5/9/2009, 10:20PM PST, 1.6c for ALL WM6.1 ROMS. Updated InnerCircle DLL for 96dpi icon. Comm Manager NOW works in 1.6c (screenshot below) except for the "settings" soft key. To access settings, use settings/connection menu. Should be fixed by next release.
UPDATE: 5/12/2009, 10:50PM PST, 1.6c still for ALL WM6.1 ROMS. Uploaded OOK_96DPI_WM61_Patch.cab for ROMs that have a problem reading the bitmap resource from the DLLs. This works on Kavana's China ROMs and other ROMS not yet tested on. Please test.
UPDATE: 6/14/2009, 1:45PM PST, 1.70 up for testing on WM6.5. It may have bugs as I kinda slapped it together due to overwhelming requests! Please test and report bugs.
Files:
3VO_96DPI_WM65_v1.70.zip
OOK_96DPI_WM61_v1.6c.zip - With new updated Comm Manager (please test)
OOK_96DPI_WM61_Patch.cab - Patch for China and other ROMs
Please continue bug testing and post your results.
i installed teh 1.55 for rose roms and its really weird now. first i uninstalled 1.53, rebooted, ran the new dpi file, let it go to homescreen, then installed new 1.55. then rebooted. now all my home screen layouts have missing topbar icons when i navigate away from teh home screen. and the in-call screen is not fixed. WORST part is: the 1.55 dpi fix doesnt appear in my remove prgrams OR sktool installed programs for me to uninstall

Thats bizzare. I am running 1.55 on my Dash right now and no problems. And it appears in the Remove Programs list. Not sure what happened. Are you sure you didn't run the Kavana one by accident? Reboot the phone, run the installer again without running dpi.ccs. It should then appear in remove programs. Then try to remove it as needed.
Also, did you reboot after you uninstalled 1.53? Very important.

if you have any of the rose roms celecmd should be included. its called command processor in start menu
run dpi.css and it wont do anything it lookslike but it did.
the only thing now is the wallpaper fix, it doesnt stretch all the way to the bottom of the screen, not a big deal

Hmmmmmm, thought I fixed that. Can you post a screenshot?
Everything is good, i like it but I cant get the commanager to appear. It just loads but never comes thru. Also, Windows Media isn't Stretched...
It looks great, but now it's a little slow my dash freezes in the when I access picture & videos. When I try to close then in task manager they will not close. I have to turn off the phone. Also the jogger started dancing around on its own. again I had to soft reset to clear up the problem. These are all issues I did not have on the Rose Rom ( Ricky & Stylez ver )
oh i think its cause i need to edit the .cpr..thing is i cant find it in the windows directory. which files? all i see are the .cpl
I installed the Rose Rom version and everything works great, except that my windows start menu icon does not look like the one in the picture. The icons in my start menu are also a little grainy now and I had to increase my default font size through Accessibility in the settings menu to make the text messages and contacts list larger and readable.
Does anyone know of an easy font changer program to increase font size and pick a different font?
hey i just installed it now...i am having the same problem as when you first came out with it...after i installed it the nrg weather program icons do not work...as i figured since they weren't made for this...i am using kavana's rom 080408 if that's correct...anyways i am being lazy but i thought you guys will know what weather program works with it..thanks
nrgs mini weather works fine, usually i have to reinstall it aftere installing the 96dpi. try that.
@fliparsenal....thanks
i feel like an idiot...
anyone can help me wit editing the cpr files so i can fix the wallpaper issue?

Installation Notes:
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. Also, this is only for the HTC Vogue - which is a CDMA device (no SIM card). It will NOT work for any device that doesn't fall under this. Not sure if you have a Vogue? Go to the WIKI and find out. I am not responsible for damage to your device (not that anything should happen, but legal disclaimers are meant for the "what ifs" )
Drop the XDA_UC folder located in the rar file onto the root of your SD card. Flash and soft reset. The UC process will start upon second boot. You can add/remove any cabs that you want to (or not want) so that the system will install them automatically.
CDMA Weather Fix:
Select the weather in your city in the Manila tab prior to installing this fix. Once it is selected, install and soft reset.

Go here (thanks codf4ther!)
Please enjoy and if you like it and feel like buying me coffee... I will gladly accept it

Good rom, sped is very good, and stable. Minor problems with menus when trying to add programs to Manilla Launcher.GPS is FAST!! The fastest I've seen. Been running for 1/2 day and no real problems. Kudos Dude!
Great ROM, performance is one of the best, it is a good idea for the power users to customize and choose the needed apps for themselves (even though this ROM already has lots of nice apps preinstalled), but for lazy people like me, it is a bit work to install lots of things (like the input methods) and the HTC 2DManila, etc. Still customizing the ROM and testing, but so far, very impressive. Thanks!
btw, BT PAN is not working for this version. In imported the registry entry I exported from NFSFAN's ROM and it worked again.

Glad you like it. I have tried adding and removing programs from the launcher and have had no issues whatsoever (speed-wise, that is). Can you elaborate on the menus issue a bit to see if I can reproduce it?

Is that the cab that you posted in LMiller's thread? If so (and with your permission, that is) I would like to include it in my UC folder.

Well, I will see if I can cook EzInput (or at least drop it in the UC folder) since I changed something in the shared modules and I think that may be the reason why it is working now. M2D does not have to be manually installed. It will do it by itself upon second boot. In fact, you do not need to install anything in the UC folder at all, it will all install itself as long as you put the XDA_UC folder in the root of the SD card as per my instructions.
Hey Egzthunder,
By mega dialer fixed do you mean you got rid of that annoying scrollbar???
I keep going back to NFSFAN's V1.00 due to the dialer, I don't like the standard wm dialer, but I also can't stand the stupid scrollbar that appears with the others in 6.5.X builds................this thing is primarily a phone after all!!!!!!!!! ((at least I use it at that now and then)
Thanks,

Soooooo..........???????
What's the secret???
Since NFS, WDM, and Vin stopped development I've started experimenting again, that may include my own ROMs (did that until I tried NFSFAN's Bell Rom back in the early 6.1 days and figured I couldn't beat the big boys).
Great work on both your ROM's by the way, but I wouldn't mind trying the fix on my own concoction (is that a word????) as well!!!!!!!
Thanks guys,
Jason (also a confirmed ORD!!!!!!)
EDIT: Dang, quoted the wrong reply!!!! I'm talking bout the scroll bar dialer fix

Is anyone aware of a .cab (or something) to restore the Block Recognizer if it wasn't included in a cooked ROM?
Thanks!

I believe there is one (I can't recall where though). Do a search on the site (or Google) and it should come out. If I can find it, I will post it.
help yourself to my bubble breaker and solitaire oem if you need it
