Managed to get Touch Flo working tonight (between 5&6am), i am using Shadow as ROM, the steps i completed are as follows:
Install Instructions
1) install touchflo and softreset
2) Delete the bio.lnk in Windows/startup
3) Delete the reg file in HKLM/Software/HTC/Biotouch/Biotouch ver
4) Map Touchflo to any free button
5) Softreset
6) Start touchflo, then go to Windows folder and start Biotouch.exe
(These are exactly the steps i took, i dont know anything else, these just worked for me and i posted them in the hope they might work for someone else!!)
Usage Instructions
1) Press the hardware button you specified to start toughflo
2) Press the hardware button you specified to rotate the cube
3) Press the red call end button to stop it and get back to the main screen
If there are any hangs, uninstall TouchFlo and start again
There are 2 irritating things (very minor!!!)
1) Cant be used with finger like real touchflo i.e. cannot drag finger up to launch or down to exit (yet!!)
2) The hardware button rotates the screen as well as starting touchflo, this might not sould like much but, for example, if the last screen you were looking at was the Music/Photos/Videos page and you pressed the red call end button to get out of TouchFlo, and you want to go back to the Music/Photos/Videos page, you will press the hardware button to start TouchFlo, but at the same time as starting it, it also rotates the screen so it is on the page after the last page you were using, resulting in needing to press the hardware button once to start TouchFlo and twice more to get back to the screen you left off at.
As i said these are minor but this should work for now untill it is properly sorted out
Enjoy
Regards
hey
i will mod my cab and release a beta once i confirm its working.
thanks again
Awesome work guys, all of you cannot be thanked enough. It's a thankless job sometimes, but this ain't one of them! Keep it up

i have done no modification to your alpha cab, i followed some instructions i found on your other site and they didnt work for me, black screens, massively slowed down Shadow, so i did it slightly differently and it worked first time, nice and fast and everything seems to be working!!!
As i said i am using your Shadow rom, no mods, my own software installed thru cabs, and using the instructions detailed above
I must say thanks to you for releasing the alpha for me to play with!!!
Thanks again JJ
P.S. is it ok to PM you i have afew questions that are off topic here!!

OK, this all sounds promising, but are you saying that you still cannot use your finger to do anything? That everything still needs to be done via buttons? Can you use your finger to scroll thru lists? Its progress that it is working at least, but isn't being able to use your finger the whole point? Or perhaps I'm misunderstanding you.

Dude,
First Point: it is 6:36am i have been messing with this thing since 4am, i have a disertation to research and im taking time out to do this, everyone on almost every forum(Trinity, Wizard, Hermes, other sites etc etc) wants this working, and we have it!!!
Second Point: This is an ALPHA RELEASE that basically means it only works sometimes, i have sat here installed checked it works, flashed my f'ing phone with the Shadow ROM, so there was nothing there that could possible help this work and installed it again.
Third Point: Yes the idea is that you use your finger for everything, but as the second point states this is an ALPHA, later releases will have this im surebut for now i appologise for not sorting that but im tired, y dont you try and get it working with your finger? (that wasnt ment to sound perverse but it does!!!)
i keep getting the black screen no graphics? please help ?

i think the thing you will find with this is the fact that this is deoendant on the ROM used too!! i cannot provide support for this i dont really know the ins and outs of it, i just posted what i did to get it to work!!!
the official link for problems and developing is here:
http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/htc-hermes/10127-touchflo-alpha-testing-discussion.html
if you read this it seems that the functionality of this is very dependant on the ROM

i just got it to work with Black Shadow.. but a few hours ago i installed Shap's rom and i installed touch flo and it worked perfectly, i didn't had to delete any keys or go into /windows folder or any of that stuff with schap's rom
another thing* for those of you having problems, try installing the audiomanager today plug in to see if you get different results, i have noticed that whenever the plugin is not in the today screen the cube seems to not work*
I assume this only works on a Mobile 6 Rom, and not on Mobile 4 (WM2003SE)

not even microsofts releases have this many problems this is a joke
Hey guys,
I am still very new customizing my touch pro 2. I would like to know how to edit the android start up text. Mostly for the ability to overclock but also I would like to become more familiar with this os.
I have really had issues with my device running on Windows Mobile and would love to keep Android . Any help at all would be much appreciated (even if you make me look like a fool). I love this phone, But I have exchanged it many times due to it being sluggish and totally unusable. If I can't figure this out I will be selling my brand new phone and getting a Nexus One in the hopes that the combination of android and a stupid fast cpu will make me happy.
To all of the people who are working so very hard getting android fully functional. Thank You. Thank you for all your help guys I know your time is better spent not answering my stupid questions. Rich
A few things, you can visit the thread here and read the first 2-3 posts for an overview:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=627997
You can also go the the new Portal site Reefermatness put up, there is a section that covers the startup.txt and explains all the various options, including the overclocking.
(FAQ section - way down towards the bottom)

Thank you
Thanks for your reply. I had searched everywhere and been reading everything.
the only thing i didn't do was actually look at the files android created on my sd card lol.
Found it
So I tried the overclock command and it didn't work ? what could i be doing wrong. Thank you

We need more details. Kinda hard to tell what exactly went wrong w/out details. Lol.
As far as overclocking go, what file manager did u use to make the edits? I found the easiest one to use for editing start up txts is gool ol File Explorer. I had issues using total commander. First, u have to make sure the spacing is right, when u enter in the edit. Its real picky and will trow out the previous or following command line in the txt, if its not spaced right. Plus the edit has to come b4 that phykeyboard command. That's probaly mispelled but u should know what I mean. Then u have to make sure that once ur done with the edit, it stays as a Txt file. Its gonna ask u to save and if u want to save it as a Doc., say No. That keeps it in its original format of startup txt. If u save as a doc. , then it definitely won't wrk.
If u still having issues, juss let me know. Or look a few pages back from the last, on the android rhodium thread. I had uploaded my overclocked startup txt there. All u would have to do is make a copy of ur original unedited startup txt(to hve juss in case), then delete that startup txt in ur andboot folder. Then download my overclocked one in there. It'll overclock u to 787MHz. ;-) make sure to read the notes on it though. So u will know the in and outs of it and what to do if issues arise. Its real easy once u get the hang of it. Try it out..let me know how it goes.

demandarin is right, and just like Johnny-5, we need more input!
It is important the 'set cmdline' line is all on a single line. All the options are listed with a single space between each option, and a double quote starting and ending the complete options list.
In the FAQ, it may appear that this line wraps or is two lines, but that is side-effect of the html page and narrow views/screen resolution.
I do all my editing with a vim editor...
Demandarin,
When I edited my startup.txt I just used file explorer. I put the oc line as the last line before the keyboard entry. It must be my spacing that is giving me problems.
I have looked through a ton of your posts, lol.I cannot find your startup.txt copy anywhere could you post it for me?
Also, I just noticed that when in android I cannot make outgoing calls, is there a fix for that ?
I tried to reply to you yesterday while i was at work using the onscreen keyboard but it kept correcting me with the wrong words how do I turn it off.
sorry for the format of my post I am running late and wanted to get back to you as soon as I could. Thank You

Yeah, u juss have to keep practicing at it. I usually put it somewhere in the middle to be on the safe side. Ill post my startup txt shortly in the main thread, so look for it after u see this post.
As far as ur outgoing calls not wrking, not sure. What device do u have? Is ur internet , incoming, and data wrkn though? If none are wrkn, then u probaly have to manually enter in ur carrier APN settings, which can b found on first page, thru link, of the rhodium android cab thread. Click on the download button. A whole slew of info and troubleshooting tips in there. If ur apn settings already in there, and other stuff wrks, then id say just delete ur data img. In the andboot folder in ur sd card.
You should keep trying the edit though, so u can have it downpacked. I couldn't get it right at first either..lol. tried a million times , kept getting errors. Then I finally got it. U know u got it when ur Android boots up without giving u errors that this or that is not a commandline. Ima boot back into windows now to post that in the rhodium android cab thread for ya.

No, not that I know of or have noticed. The only thing is that if u let the phone go to sleep, in android, it doesn't like to wake up a lot of times. My solution for that is go into Android settings. Then go to display. Scroll down to screen timeout. By default its set to 1 minute. I put it at the max at 30 mins. So the phone won't go to sleep or timeout for at least that long. Everytime the phone is touched, whenever, it resets that timer. I also went into spareparts. Scroll dwn to end button behavior. Change it to "Home" only. Instead of sleep. I get about 6-7hrs off da charger with really, really heavy android use. When I boot into android, I'm on it. Lol. Plus another tip is if u leave it on the charger and use it, it won't fall asleep. Even if u put it to. Its still technically running although the screen is off.
As always, use at own risk. Juss like with any other program or anything u dwnload. I haven't had no problems other than what was stated. To me, the difference in everyday performance is greatly enhanced. The builds work perfectly fine without the overclocking. With the overclocking, it makes everything faster and smoother and a ton less lag. Try it and determine for urself. ;-)

Just got home from work. A little tired and a little drunk lol. thank you so much for your help. I will try to change the startup.txt in the morning when I can focus.
A few questions;
Have you tried the battery fix at all?
I see you have increased your clock speed. how do you like it ? does it still have the sleep problems?
What other things can you change in the startup.txt file?
Thanks and good night.one more beer and its bedtime.
Demandaron,
Dude it totally Works. Thank you. Also I can confirm that setting the sleep mode to 2 works perfectly as a fix for the phone not wanting to wake up.
Edit: So this thing is awesome,everything is faster even web load times.
More questions:
Is there anything else i can use to enter text other than the tapatalk app? It keeps incorrectly correcting my words lol
How can i backup my settings/apps?
Random thing happened. I was using the slide out keyboard and all the sudden my tp2 goes dark like its sleeping (also it was plugged in). I had to pull the battery to get it to boot again.

No problem. I tried to reply to ur pm but I don't think it went thru. Xda havin issues or somethin..lol. I called n left u a voicemail.
As far as backing up ur settings, in Android settings, there's a place to check off backup settings. I'm not sure which one its under. Or if u trying to back up apps or whateva, use Astro explorer or titanium backup.
I think that pmem setting or battery edit for startup txt causes ur device not to charge when on the charger. I've read of that happening with a few people. Dats y I don't use it. 6ve never had my battery die not once while booted in Android.
With the keyboard thing, I think its a manufacturer thing or error. Me and several others noticed, in windows mobile, that if u open the keyboard to fast/hard or let it close too fast/hard..then it'll reboot or whateva. Something about maybe the battery contacts comin off for that split second. A simple fix for that is to wedge a piece of paper in between ur battery and battery cover. So it'll keep the battery pressed down and the power contact stays made. Regardless or keyboard or not. That's what I heard on that issue. I juss make sure to close the keyboard easily instead of letting it slam shut

Demandrin, I'm working on almost 6 hours with our set of mods. All I have turned off is wifi. When my battery gets too low I am going to switch to my backup batt and try no wifi and no 3g and see where that gets me. I'll keep you posted.
I need to find a set of apps or an app that turns on/off wifi,3g,Gps

We aren't going to see Android on NAND for awhile. The developers are more concerned with getting basic hardware features working than with modifying the Polaris/Kaiser/Vogue Android bootloader. It's completely doable once the bootloader is modified for the Rhodium (and its variants), but it's not a priority to get it working at this time.
Yea, I think getting something like sound working is a little more important than getting it to boot natively.

But dude they been working on the vogue since 2008
sound wont work on the Rhodium for a while, everything SHOULD work, but theres something in particular thats stopping us from initializing one of the media processors. We need to decompile the Windows wavedev.dll to see what information is missing. I am one thats on this impossible mission lol
Now that busybox is running, NAND & a custom recovery image are my 2 biggest wants on this phone. With those tools, the possibilities for customization are basically endless.
Even when all work is done on this build, I still want it as a cab install I dont want my tilt 2 to be Android only. I love the fact that i can dual boot. The best of both worlds. plus i heard android runs faster off the sd card because of higher data transfer rates. Although i think its faster than what the processor is use to, in a sense. My next device will be an Android only OS. For now, with the Tilt 2, I will be dual booting. An android only device cant do that(windows) so we kind of got the upper hand on them. I can use the universally known WIndows mobile or Android. You cant beat that.
I wouldn't mind a nand flash now as tbf I never have my phone on load so sound doesn't bother me. Also I use android 100% of the time so having to reboot into winmo is a pain

i see what you're saying. I use Android about 75% of the time. Still have to go back into windows to use my cam.
Actually u dont have to reboot into winmo, just install the Gene Y dual boot, if u havent already. An easier and faster way to get into Android if the phone is reseted or just powering up.
hey dude named dzo confirmed a vogue build running on his tilt so my question is how safe is it o an 2.2 if app sound work y dont nothing else im ah noob so be easy plz jus a tp2/android junkie

make sure its in silent mode with the vibrate checked off. also go to ur sms. press menu. there, u can set up ur txts to go off on vibrate also.
Man... I just bought the Touch Pro 2 because I figured I could root Android on it, because I have my Tilt rooted with Myn's Warm Donut Android 1.6, and it is SO much better than Windows Mobile. It's faster, sleeker, and just has such a nicer feel to it, not to mention the ability to sync everything from g-mail, and an insanely accurate voice command system... grrrr.
Me want NAND!
I installed the new Tilt 2 ROM 5.2.21887 (Aug 30/2010) I HATE IT
I'm a nuvee about ROMs.
I have this file HTCTilt2ATTOriginalShipROM.exe can I *just* run it like I did with the new ROM to go back to the orinal shipped ROM?
I called HTC they said NO. Idon't believe them.
if im right you can install ANY rom after you used HardSPL:

yes. you will be able to.

You don't need to HardSPL to flash an official ROM (for your specific carrier). The original shipped ROM will flash fine.

My only hesitation is becasue de guy at HTC said NO!. (What does he know!)
Summary:
I had original tllt2 ROM.
I just ran the new Updated ROM. no HardSPL (I don't even know what's that)
I don't like the new ROM (only good thing is Videos run smoother)
I had the original ROM file .
Question: RUNning this file is the same as Flashing? (Sorry I'm really noobie)

Fortunatelly I have a file HTCTilt2ATTOriginalShipROM.exe I don't remember how I got it (maybe HTC) but I'm sure is the original.
The only question is that the original ROM was about 8/09 and I believe it was a fix patch on 12/09. I bought my Tilt2 on 4/10 so I don't know if I have to install the patch plus I don't know what kind of patch it was.
Thanks for your help.

Just curious, what didn't you like about the new ROM? I DLd id today and was thinking about installing it. I've had an issue lately where the time gets thrown off, doesn't seem to sunc properly, and I thought this new ROM might address that issue.

Read the oter posts about the new tilt 2 rom.. there is a couple things that suck. I dont like that it dont have the mini task mannager at the top right where it tells u how much memory is free and beable to close app without haven to open the task manager. It dont have arc messaging client, it has HTC message client, and i dont like how it runs, its really slow. the rom itself is fast, it dont show notifications on the home screen , u have to click on the top taskbar to see if u have a missed call and what ever, also the first thing u need to do is install .net 3.0 before u don anything then u need to do a registry edit to get .net to work right.. There is some other things i dont like about it, thats y im not usen it.. wildchild has made a nice update of this new rom, that fixed alot of things that werent right.. but read the form here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737168 then ull get a better view on this about this rom, whether u want it or not. But the best way to deside if u like it or not is to flash it and try it. Make sure u have the original rom just incase u dont like it. If u dont i have a copy and could upload to hotfile or somethin

Just curious, what didn't you like about the new ROM? I DLd id today and was thinking about installing it. I've had an issue lately where the time gets thrown off, doesn't seem to sunc properly, and I thought this new ROM might address that issue.

1-Besides the above items let me add that the deal breaker for me was they reduced the text input keyboard from 6 or 7 to just 3. No more letter recognition, or handwriting or my preferred method, block recognition. I know is not popular, but I love it becuse it's almost impossible to mistype, it the faster way for me, I use my finger or the stylus and the big plus is it doesn't cover the screen! and I don't even have to look at the screen! The current keyboard covers more than half of the scree and in landscape mode it cover almost all the scree, just one line visible at the top. But the worst thing is that even if I am using the hardware keyboaard it pops over and over again.
2- HTCalbum.exe is just useless. in the Photo and Video tab, if I press "album" to change the albums or to see the grid, it opens the grid view for 1 or 2 seconds and returns to swipe view. If I'm quick enough to press the album key it shows the list of albums but it freezes for a while and returns back again to the swipe mode. The I get an error message from Microsoft with a link to report the error when I press the it asks for Wifi connection. And even if I exit the error message keeps poping up
Internet is definitely slower.
I couldn't find a way to add programs to the WM6 Star menu icons and Sense only allows 9.
How you can see the list of ALL PROGRAMS??
On the good side FM reception is a lot better
The one thing that is noticible better is that finally the the video play is very smooth (sigh) I'm going to miss that because I moving back to the original ROM.

Have you tried re flashing or restored a backup?
Dude you posted like 6 minutes ago, don't bump. When someone knows they'll reply, and this is in the wrong section.
well im limited to where i can post >< so i just thought i will do it here
anyway i did a full wipe 3 times or so i connected the phone to laptop and formatted also the hard drive via laptop to make it totaly empty and reflashed again and it still turns right off after the startup i dont know what im doing wrong i do exactly as they say on juggernaut section
1. MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP! well i didnt did this i dont rely on backups><
2. Download rom.zip and place on sdcard i did
3. Boot into clockwork recovery i did
4. Choose to flash zip (choose appropriate sdcard location) did this
5. Once zip has finished installation, reboot did this aswell
6. Now wait a minimum of 10 minutes (I know you're excited but don't touch anything!) did this aswell
7. Reboot Fails
8. Now you are free to enjoy the unstoppable JUGGERNAUT! im not enjoying

If you can't follow the instructions, you shouldn't flashing ROMs.
No offense, but seriously, it doesn't say that for funsies, we really mean it for times like this.
Now... when you boot into CWM what version does it say up top. Also, did you check the md5 when you downloaded it?

Nope. You need to read. You should know what phone you bought or who your provider is.

Well if he stated that villain rom is working for him does that mean his version is closer to the skyrocketing version? What is you phone model in settings>about phone.?

This made me LOL.
The only person who can get a Tmo SGSII ROM to boot on an International SGSII is Chuck Norris. I can tell you are not Chuck Norris because of your Thanks count. Chuck Norris' Thanks count is so high that only government supercomputers have the resources to display such a high number. The rest of us just get rerouted to a 404 error page and then our computers start smoking before the blue screen of death appears and our motherboards melt. I went through 4 computers before I learned this, now I have to write to my congressman in order to get the real number. Even then, by the time I get the number I have to add atleast another 150,000 Thanks to that to get the real number, because Walker Texas Ranger is in syndication and even when you thank the fictional version of Chuck Norris when he rescues little white kids from Mexican drug smugglers, his Thanks count goes up. Its very frustrating.
Either way, now you know. Flash International SGSII ROMs on your device and you should be ok.

You would need to check the thread for the international version. Since I only have the T-Mobile version (and I am a Noob), I see no need to look at the other version's ROMs. I don't want to get tempted by another ROM and have a brainfart and think it will work on my phone.
