Cooked ROM for HTC Asia? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

I have an HTC Touch Pro2 running the excellent Rhodium_S2_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.07.707.1 ROM. I would have posted the link to this but the board says "new users are not permitted to post outside links in their messages". As it's an internal link to this website, I'm not sure what the problem is. Anyway, just append showthread.php?t=631563 to the end of the URL of this board.
I really like it because I'm a native English speaker living in China, and it's tailor-made for my exact situation. I bought a dual touch/keyboard phone specifically so I could handwrite Chinese characters. If I see an unfamiliar character, the only way to look it up in the dictionary is to write it - there is no way to know its pronunciation so you can type it with the keyboard. I just can't stand soft keyboards for writing English so I needed a real one. However, there are a few performance issues (slowness), as well as some lockups. Sometimes, manila.exe or services.exe will consume 100% CPU and when this happens, using task manager v3.3 and clicking "CPU" will lock up the phone.
Are there any cooked ROMs based on this distribution?

You can try English Rom + a Chinese Support Cab.

You can download the Chinese Support Cab here:

Yeah, that's not what I'm talking about. So, there are no cooked roms of the stock Rhodium_S2_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.07.707.1? A pity, everyone commented that it was really nice, for a stock rom.

there is chinese website imitating xda,the link is:

It's solely in Chinese language,they have guys doing cooked roms,if you cannot read chinese,then you can ask chinese firend to help you find the roms.

Don't take so seriously to write in English, Japanese member.
It is just a tool for communication.

Hi, wydeload
Sasaki933's ROM is here;
http://www.megaupload.com/en/?d=QIA1V73K
Be careful because it's alfa~beta version.
He send his Hermes to HTC japan for repair.
He said slide was loosen.
Then hermes is not on his hand now and he can not check the ROM works properly or not.
But no major problem has been reported yet scince it was uploaded.
Try it at your own risk!
My X01HT became a brick because of other experiments.
The report is waited for because it is not possible to try to our
regret.
X01HT Came Back!!!
Hello
At last my X01HT came back from repair.
Because I check the latest edition of the ROM who made it so far from now on, please wait for a while till then.
Congratulations!
This day was waited for.
However, it takes care about the brick.
Welcome back, sasaki933!
We hope to share good time with you.
If you want other test, I will test anything as possible as I can with pleasure.

Pinyin with hardware keyboard support needed

I want to be able to input Simplified Chinese - but I don't want an entirely Chinese OS. After some searching I've found these (I'm not sure if I remember the names correctly):
CE-Star - doesn't work well at all. For me, at least.
"Ask China_FEPNo5" - mysterious thing, but it does let me input everything using stylus. No predictive input. (EDIT: I think the credit goes to asukal)
PlumSIP No. 5 - takes a lot of space on the screen, but no hardware keyboard support.
There should be something built-in in the Chinese ROMs, and a lot of cooks starting with Dopod ROMs must have stripped it down - so can anyone give me an idea of where to search?
http://bbs.pcmag.com.cn/viewthread.php?tid=33915&extra=page=1
Thank you. This forum required a registration to view, and I found a discussion of yet another ROM build. However, download links simply do not work.
What I hoped for would be some information about where is the IME itself stored in ROM... now I can only compare that and the stock one, but there are too many differences, I'm afraid.

Problem with Honk Kong World-Wide English (WWE): easy install, Courtesy ChunkyMonkey

I installed this ROM referenced above (from here) and i have two questions:
1) is there an add on to allow the network wizard to config for Tmobile (US)?
2) I have some text input problems and I'm wondering if they are because this ROM is for Asia
* in notes and text messaging (maybe other places), the ALT symbols that show up do not correspond with the indicated symbol on the keyboard
* occasionally it reverts to UPPERcase automatically, as if the normal mode was CAPS-LOCK ON.
thanks

Basically mate, don't bother with any of the roms on that thread. When 6.1 first started to appear on hermes there was a rush of separate threads with links to different versions appearing around and about. I just colleted them into a single thread.
It's really old now and probably should be deleted.
The network config app you want is by schap's and you'll find it attached to lots of threads in this and other forums on xda-dev.
The text problems are probably because, although a WWE rom, it's for the Honk Kong market so yes, designed for use in Asia.
There are much better rom options in this forum, so reflashding with a much mofre recent one would be my advice.
which clean and stable ROM would you recommend? touchflo interface would be nice, even if i have to add it later.
thanks

Ah, now there's a question and a half. I use one I cooked but it's got loads of my own stuff cooked into it with paid-for software so I can't give it out.
It's actually based on an older, WM6 ROM (Pandora 6) from matt_kr's kitchen but heavily edited. It's very stable but doesn't have the stuff you'd want. One good way for a noob to to get an idea of which roms are already popular just at a glance is by looking at how long some rom threads become.

[Q] Cooked ROMs for TP2 With Different Keyboards (Original vs. Verizon vs. Sprint)

I have seen some wonderful cooked ROMs for TP2 devices in these forums and elsewhere, many of which with excellent appearance, performance and functionalities. Some cooks are even thoughtful enough to make both GSM and CDMA versions. However, my use of such has stumbled on the following very significant obstacle: the physical keyboard (aka "the main reason why people purchase this device in the first place").
I have identified at least three types of keyboard on TP2 devices depending on whether they are directly supplied by HTC or if they come from carriers such as Verizon or Sprint. Not only do the carrier devices not have a Ctrl key like the original one does, but they also differ regarding other key mappings. There are also differences between the keyboards in Verizon and Sprint phones as to the location of the comma, underline, other punctuation marks, special characters, and functions.
As I own a Sprint Version device, most ROMs I install tend to jumble up the functioning of the keyboards so that I end up pressing one key and getting a different symbol in response. Therefore, I am now using the WM 6.5 update issued by Verizon March 19th 2010, having upgraded Windows Mobile Office and Windows Live through the Microsoft Marketplace service.
I wish I could upgrade do WM 6.5.3 and also take advantage of some goodies provided in cooked ROMS, such as crapware removal, upgraded versions of pre-installed apps, improved interface, etc., but I don't want to scramble my keyboard. I also do not want to have to install keymapping software, for I am Brazilian and already use AEKmap to generate the special characters in the Portuguese language (á, à, ã, é, ê, ç, etc.), so i dont want do complicate matters in that department.
Anyone know where I can find good Sprint-keyboard-friendly customized ROMs? Or, perhaps, some other way of dealing with this issue?
Thx in advance.
Energy ROM has a function in Start>Tools called "Carrier Provisioning" which will automatically remap the keyboard for your TP2 version. Other cooks may have similar solutions.
But I'm not sure how you will get the Brazilian characters you're looking for. There is a Rhodium Keyboard Controller CAB (below) that works really well to remap keys, but I don't know if/how you can get the Brazilian characters.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554240
You're in the wrong forum to ask about Verizon/Sprint phones, since they're CDMA and this forum is about GSM ROMs. Check out either the Rhodium CDMA sub-forum, or (probably better) ppcgeeks.com which tends to have much better coverage for CDMA devices.

Thx for your response.
If there is such a function, I believe it would most definitely help me out. The Energy ROMs are precisely what I had in mind. Is this a new addition? I was reading the Energy forums and October last year there were still issues with Sprint phones.
Regarding the special characters I need, AEKmap works just fine. I just didn't wanto to have to include extra settings (create a third keyboard layout) to correct any jumbling from the ROM.

Given that I was not referring to a GSM x CDMA issue (I originally mentioned that this has already been addressed by developers), I though that the ROM forum would be the best choice.

I might have got it wrong. But I thought you have a Sprint phone (i.e. a CDMA TP2) and you want to get the keyboard working properly on it ? If so, then that's a CDMA ROM issue.
Not trying to be unhelpful here, quite the opposite - I'm suggesting you'd get much better help if you went to ppcgeeks.com and asked on this, because there would be a lot more people with CDMA TP2s there.

[Q] DHD revolution & Leedroid ROM's default language

pls help to confirm me that the ONLY language the revolution & Leedroid supports is english with original ROM? i really need a chinese enabled one.
and the purpose i turn to customed ROM is for battery time extending, so kindly brief me the advantages for these two, especially in battery juice saving, thanks
any one help
Try MIUI roms...they are all chinese
I'm using Android Revolution and I can say that it supports Chinese, in fact in 3.1 it supports 3 kinds of chinese (don't know what the difference is, i suspect traditional, simplified and no clue about the 3rd one). As 3.2 is just out, I guess it should also have chinese
good luck with it.
thanks, i think revolution and leedorid are from official ROM, sure they get htc sense UI, which i like, so the optional MIUI i will pass.
i slip to tell, they supports chinese means also they can key in with chinese characters as above Dxue to say, with your explanations i will explore through the forum thread to find out

Android revolution supports chinese input as well , would be weird if it shows chinese but you cannot type it . there are 4 ways to input chinese characters, pingying, writing, with the 5 strokes and another I don't recognize.
(I'm a dutch chinese guy, so I use it sparely, but my chinese really sucks ).
don't know it this answered your question or not. if you need more info just ask
