Ok i tried ricky rose rom, dang thing keeps randomly shutting off and i have to use a power cord to restart the phone so here is my question.
anyone know of a simple rom that allows for texting, mms, sms, good camera options, and chome settings? would like it to also do bluetooth well. other then that i want a very simple vanilla rom.
thanks cause i dont have time to try all of them so any points in the right direction would help alot.
There really isn't that many to try the best bet is to set a day and try them all find the ROM that suites your needs.
Regards resets that will be your battery "based on that the only other users in thread with same problem was battery"
If i was to recommend a ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5316523&postcount=2
Thanks ill try that one i tried one of rick remakes of a 6.1 but didnt like some of the homescreen bars. have any idea how to edit them? i would like to remove from say the message bar the email stuff and/or remake a bar to show only messages, mms, missed calls and voice mail with the counters when its minimized if i could figure that out i would have a minimal screen and would suit me perfectly.
yah i was thinking it might be battery to gona find out by buying a new bigger battery off ebay
If looking for a battery find the simplo 1550 they aren't cheap but will provide days of joy and last far longer than any other generic battery.
I'm very minimal myslef but never found an issue with messaging as all on one bar in Kavana Ricky Remade then i only have programs/my favs and settings panel keeps RAM free, but then i use SmartToolKit and folders to make it easy "mind you it's been more pimped so the gf doesn't ask silly q's of how to work it"
lol ill keep a eye out on that battery is it a big battery or just a larger amp one? i did have troubles with smarttool once so dont like it all i need is celetask and chome just wish chome would allow me to edit some of the bars in my case id love the clock on main screen as main bar with messages displayed in it for normal txt messages where i click the clock and it takes me to inbox ... would be nice to also have the missed calls counter there to...
btw any idea of other java options can be setup? i would prefer java thats on my old behold instead of the one here, it seems the one here has a input error with a program i use for my check book, worked flawless on my behold but now with this java it adds a 0 for some dam reason...

regarding the panels , check out the chome configurator thread on the sticky, theres also threads about custom panels and stuff. Search.
but like Stylez mentioned, Rickwyatt's V24 vanilla with a pagepool mod was my fave for a long time, and I also recommend oOkBa's 6.5 rom , to me it was a very good rom, I used it for the last 6 months that I had my dash.
do you know of any place that sells that battery i did a quick search but came up with nothing so far...

Yes, I've finally gotten around to looking into this whole cab making malarkey and while this is an existing one customised to fit my needs, it's a good learning curve
It's the palm threaded SMS app and it just plain rocks - really
So anyway, I've tested this on WM6 (Black 4) and it really works. Everything is already set up in this for using with T-Mobile and MMS works too! It integrates nicely with the HTC homescreen and includes a custom alert tone (hope you like it! )
Just to make sure the install goes OK, please use the task manager to stop the messaging \ poutlook \ tmail processes before you run the cab as I believe this could cause problems.
You will lose your existing SMS and MMS messages in the standard messaging app so if you want to keep them, use PIMBackup first
It's a fantastic app and I recommend giving it ago and if you're on T-Mob, I've just made it a little easier for you
Cheers,
Smiffy.

Good point! Nice work on the cab Lord but some reassurance would be fantastic
Service provider?
Have installed it and its quality. I can't send mms though. In the settings its set to cingular. I've got the tmob settings bar the centre number any ideas?
screen shot
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/10/18/treo-750v-threaded-sms-mms-app-hacked-for-all/
looks like that
I'm looking at it now - I did test it on mine first but I think it probably kept the registry settings when I uninstalled it and re-installed it.
As for uninstalling...on my T-Mobile UK MDA Vario II, it uninstalled perfectly and everything reverted to the standard messaging app...BUT, as with anything like this, please don't just take the poster's word for it - use PIMBackup and and back it all up first!! It will most likely work OK, but...sh*t happens ;-)
Smiffy.
Thanks man. Your word is always good enough
OK, there were 2 places in the registry where the MMS settings were stored and I only changed 1 but it's sorted now (tested 3 times ;-)
And no, my word isn't good enough ;-) Back it up!! :-D
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Fixed and fantastic
Think this will quite possibly be the first cab i'll install after future flashes. Intelligent fuctionality.
Cheers Lordsmiff nice work
Forgot to say that when i uninstalled first version my old sms and mms were still there. When i reinstalled the new ones reappeared. Like lordsmiff says back up just in case but it didnt completely remove messages only temporarily when using the app.
You're right, it doesn't remove the old messages, it just uses a different message store but, at the risk of repeating myself ;-) back it up anyway
Which reminds me - if you want to reflash your device and then get all your threaded SMS messages back, you need to backup a file in the Windows folder called "PalmMsgV001" and also a folder in Windows called "MMS"
The file has all the text messages and stuff in and the folder has all the images etc from MMS messages in (I found that out the hard way )
Copy those two to your storage card and then back after a reflash to have everything back in threads
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Moved to rapidshare at mod's request
Anyone have any ideas where better to put it as I know some people (myself included) can't get them during working hours...damn those proxys
Cheers,

Is it possible to install this threaded sms cab then alter the network settings by installing one of the available operator cabs or does the setting need to be entered manually?
Thanks.
i havent looked at lordsmiff's version... but if its anything like the ones i posted there is a possible issue of mms not working if you enter the settings manually... but his could be different...
There's not much chance of it being too different - it's based on your cab
If you want me to mod it for your provider, I can do that for you
Just PM me the connection details and I'll see what I can do
Cheers,
Smiffy.
i had another thought if you wanted to run with the idea.. i go back to work today so my time is going to be limited again.
The original version where based on the sprint connections, when i extracted all the files from the cingular treo rom and dumped the registry i compared them, i noticed all the reg settings were pretty much the same except for 2 lines and of course all the provider settings. But im thinking that if we left out the hard coded provider settings and allow the user to enter them manually that this may stop the "sometimes" apparent connection issues with MMS. So basically have a generic threaded cab with no provider settings hard coded at all... and if someone wanted to feel ambitious enough they could make cabs with just the hard coded reg settings for different providers (not the whole app)..
Hi!
Sounds great! Can it also be used for a other provider ? If yes; how do I know my settings ?
Does it show a alerts and integrates it good in the HTC Home Screen ?

I really love this app and would like to go back to it. MMS has always worked for me when using shogunmarks version but I think its limited to 300k.
Since your offering lord would you make one for AT&T?
I linked the settings I would have just posted them here but didn't want to miss something so I linked the main page for you.

One thing everyone should know when using this app is if you use any kind of app that closes programs like HTC Task Manager for example you need to add the Palm Threaded app to the exclusive list so it does NOT close when pressing x.
What happens a lot of times is most people write their txt msg and just click the x but with the threaded you have to wait until the msg is actually sent.
So the app should be running most of the time..
Hi,
What about the new sms notify; does it show an alerts and integrates it good in the HTC Home Screen ?
Xivius
Let me start by saying that Ive been creeping in the corners of these forums for a bit, and frankly, you guys are AMAZING. I purchased an ATT 8525 in June, and Id be lying if I didn't say reading these forums has solved about 90% of my issues. Needless to say, now I'm starting to feel brave... Ive read the wiki, Ive tried googling, I need some help.
(Please, if this IS somewhere, just point me in that direction, Ive gotten by OK with no direct interference)
Im starting to feel brave enough to tweak registry and change ROMS, even tried a couple here on the forums... but I don't seem to have any luck finding what Im looking for, and I was COMPLETELY puzzled by self cooking.
Heres what I'm looking for...
BAREBONES WM6. (I don't want ANY of what ships with WM6 besides the phone functions (Camera, Calender, Text, Phone, WiFi) Even the default sounds, I want all gone, I realize I can delete afterwards if needed. I used XDASUPPER_CLEAN3 And I can say its VERY close, It just did a few things Im not so happy with, primarily added a Video call button to my dialer (Which I wont use) and showed me connect to the UMTS ATT&T Network or showing No connection to network, but still dialing out. I live in Vegas, 3G is everywhere, what SHOULD I be connecting to? And it added an awkward white triangle to the very top of my today screen,
I also don't use the outlook features of the phone, So I want to remove all traces of EMAIL From the device. (Not sure if a reg tweak exists for this or what?)
The long and short of it. I use my ATT 8525 for
Text/Picture Messaging
Picture Taking
Scheduling with Calender
Contact Storage
Beaming Data
Silly Games
And a phone (w blue tooth headset)
Off the top of my head at 230 that sounds like everything, anything on the device that isn't related to those is wasted space.... Please any advice or help would be GREATLY appreciated.
ROM's
Check out K's Rom..I use it and it's pretty sick. Read the description and see if it suits your needs. Some functions have been disabled and others tweaked..to include Expanded memory. It also includes some helpful tools.
Also, the use of Ftouchflo is highly recommended.
Hope this helps some.

Have to agree with this one. The fastest WM6 ROM around at the moment.
I use Pandora's Build it YOUR way setup. I can customize what is installed and what's not.

MUCH Thanks
Alright folks, it looks like you've hit me with some great suggestions! Im currently using Pandora Naked. Just a few things, I couldnt get Pandora 6 to flash at all, but Pandora 5 went on without a hitch. I cant seem to figure out WHAT is different about the installation. But I dont see any notes on what features may or may not be different between the two roms themselves...
Also, I ran into a situation where I could not for the life of me get Pandora YOUR way to cooperate on installing the rom, I realize Naked + and add ons I want is an alternative, but still Unsure on what causes the installation to give me a "Corrupt Image" error.
One other SMALL item, is that strange white triangle at the top of the today screen, I cant figure out what it is, where it came from, or how to get rid of it. Beyond that, all is fantastic! Thanks again everyone!
that strange white triangle is the roaming indicator. Mostly it indicates you are off your home network.
Sometimes you will get it if you flash a rom from a network thats not your own.
I have seen a few other posts about people with it stuck on. Try doing a search
Anyone know something good, i want to be able to see it on the today screen or if not its ok too. As long as it shows me the time, date, and appointment. Something like i saw somewhere on this board, i've heard of facade but is there anything else?
link to the image -
if its not viewable this is the direct link: http://img519.imageshack.us/my.php?image=40944433yu3.png
so something like that is good, any suggestions? Thanks, preferably something free.
I typically use the appointment program that comes with the phone. The stock one...

@jdoggraz
You mean the stock one with 6.1 sliding panels??
Either way, does it show the TASKS on today screen? If not, how do u manage it?
I use Papyrus, but it doesnt have a today plugin
Original Poster, Facade is good, and if u can tweak it, u can show just what you need. I was a huge fan, until the sliding panels came along...
Cheers
Quick answer, you cant have that kind of plugin on 6.1
You only can on 6.0 or below
Yeah thought so too
Facade and other today screen plugin people might be cursing microsoft for bringing up such a panel thing..
That said, how come no one ever designed anything that can display tasks on a sliding panel...
Wishful thinking...
I'm loving NFSFAN's new Bell ROM, but i'm not crazy about the slide to answer on the phone canvas.
I'm looking for a way to replace the slide to answer / ignore with buttons instead of a slider while keeping everything else the same.
I've researched different skins for this dialer (there are some cool looking ones out there!!) but none of these change the slider.
Any help would be appreciated.
This one works for me; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429179. There is also a black version somewhere Google 'Black Minimal Dialer'
I've now been using NFSFAN's ROM for a few days now.
Must say i've gotten quite used to the dialer. I like all of the other features. Especially the "in call curtain". While i'm still not in love with slide to answer I understand the concept of why it was created. If I want to press a button that's what the hardware key is for!!
I wasn't really looking for a new dialer, but i've learnt the slide is an integral part of the package.
Thanks for the response anyways. You were the only one to do so. (everyone else was probably busy shaking their heads!!!)
now mine might sound like a really stupid question, but can I install the opal's slide to answer dialer on my sprint htc vogue ? are all the ## codes working for you on your phone ?
Yes, everything works (911 etc)
In NFSFAN's words, the data connection is not active during a call, it just breaks the data errors.
The dialer is included in his ROM, i'm not really sure if the same one is found anywhere in CAB format. A quick google search for "opal slide to answer CDMA" should yield some results for you.

thanks jmitr for your patient answer and the links to the solutions.. really really appreciate your patience and yes I just installed it and working fine now.. love the new dialer...
i spoke too sooon... i installed the complete cab by mbarvian and then tried juggaloo's cab but it was for VGA graphics, i tried mbarvian and conflippers cab but that messed up everything...
just mbarvians cab - didn't display the incall screen properly.... it was all greyed out...
now i can't find a single good cab which displays everything like it should... i don't want to do any more trial and error and find out... please help me on this ...
i dont mind not having the canvas - atleast i get a bigger picture on caller screen and thats all i want right now...
I know s2u2 has a large picture to answer the phone with.
I don't use it anymore, I found it drained my battery too fast. With NFSFAN's rom and the opal dialer it isn't really needed anyways.
Sorry none of the links led to anything fruitful, my only experience with this dialer is in the custom ROM. Must say it has grown on me though!!

I had trouble getting the dialer to work initially also. It seemed to be tied to the rom build that something changed after the 20XXX rom build was released. If I used anything earlier it wouldn't work. If your on a stock rom that may be part of the issue. Not sure, but just my experience in fixing the issue.
It is tied to a shell component.

Hey thanks for the reply NFSFAN, the slide to answer was the only part of your ROM that I didn't really like......at first. I couldn't imagine going back to the old dialer now.
It is good to learn what's possible and what's not though, thanks again for the answer.

Codes don't work for me on the verizon beta rom. Is it just me or do you have to use the folder rather than the dialer?
I would like to know if there is a registry or app that turns off the keyboard backlight.
The idea is save battery life during the day or while reading a big text. I already use the Lowlight to reduce the light intensity but the keyb light many times is useless.
I already teste some regs mentioned for others phones but didn't work in the nrg rose (QKeybTimeout and QKeyb another thing...).
I noticed that the keyb light turns off while browsing a big email in the native wm mail. I think it's possible to find a reg monitoring this function, but i don't know about any wm 6.1 reg monitor like ceregspy for ppc.
thanks for the help
go to power management in settings and you can lower the time that it's lit up

go to HKCU\ControlPanel\KeypadBacklight and change your registry settings to look like this.

i'll make a cab, so if you don't like it you can uninstall it.

It's worth a try to create the reg, just been searchin and seems a common question on many phones that no one answers
haha well i have nothing going on at the moment, so i'll make a small effort to figure it out. no promises though people.
EDIT well after some searching i would like to think i've narrowed it down to the HTCUtil.dll and/or the keybddr.dll that controls how long the keypad lights are on. but i have no way of telling for sure, just a guess.
So anybody? make a cab that has a simple icon like light config, lets make it so all power on keyboard is off during the day.
or something. ?
