October 3rd, 2010:
Version 7.0 Changes from 6.0:
-Switched to Office Mobile 2010
-Added Titanium theme "Windows Mobile 7" by Dan.
++++This removes "Phone / Voicemail / Text Messages" items from the Titanium Home Screen - replaced with Notifications.
++++To make a phone call, you can choose Phone from the Start Menu or the Notifications Pane, or press the green hardware button on the phone itself.
-Removed Titanium Customizer
-Added CHome Editor
-Added Titanium plugins (these can be individually disabled using CHome Editor):
++++Comm Manager
++++Titanium Weather (was added / removed in the past, but if you don't want it you can Disable it!)
++++Notifications (missed call, voice mail, sms, email) - this replaces the TEXT, PHONE, and VOICEMAIL items in this theme. Select any of these to compose new text, make a call, etc...
++++Facebook / Facebook IM
++++Favorite People contact shortcuts (customizable / can rename appearance on Titanium)
++++Application Shortcuts (note some applications shown by default were not included and may be added to a future build)
++++Office Mobile 2010 Shortcuts (note: Office Communicator not included)
-Added HTC Audio Manager
-Added MortScript
-Added IETools
-Added SQLCE3.0
-Added System files needed for Voice Command (some apps can now take advantage of Voice Commands).
-Switched to more plugin-compatible version of HTC Jade Album
-"Conneting" Data notification disabled by defalut.
-Added MINLA 2D interface: note: I know practically nothing about Manila - I got it to work, my city was already in the weather databse, I don't know how to add cities, etc... don't ask me, I can't help you! For help, visit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554857
++++To enable Manila2D, Click Start > Settings > Home Screen, move right to ITEMS, and Select TouchFLO (note, the TouchFlo cube is NOT included with this build).
-Added many more programs to NVogue Care Pack:
++++Swype for Vogue (install 1st)
++++Swype for Vogue QVGA Theme (install 2nd) - must be installed.
++++Microsoft MyPhone latest
++++Opera Mobile (small, very fast, but sends your info to Opera proxy for processing) latest
++++Opera Mini (Forces your phone to do the work that Opera Mini's proxy would do, but protects your privacy) latest
++++Google Maps latest
Most impressive about NuVogue 7.0? Even with all of these new features (Titanium Plugins, Manila2D, etc...) the phone still boots EXTREMELY qickly. The "First Boot after flash" will take a little longer, but once everything is properly installed and you're using the phone day-to-day, NuVogue 7.0 is still extremely fast and stable!
As with 6.0 - to free up space on your device, you can delete the entire folder for the NuVogue Care Pack - it will warn you that these are system files, but will cause no problems if deleted.
>>>DIRECT DOWNLOAD 7.0<<<note - this bad boy is whopping 92.3MB!

September 19th, 2010:
Version 6.0 Changes from 5.0:
-Back to Glossy 1 column 6-Button COMM Manager from earliest builds of NuVogue.
-Added latest Facebook client.
-Added Pocket Uno to Games.
-Added HTC Performance (Start\Settings\System\Performance) supposedly compatible with HTC Vogue.
++Allows changes CPU clock speed from 400Mhz-constant to 300-520Mhz-dynamic (not responsible for any damage that may result from use). Can also overclock to 624 Mhz, but I do not suggest this.
-INTRODUCING THE NuVogue Care Pack!!!: CAB files that cause problems or when "pre-installed" or that some users may have no need for - but saved in the phone's "NuVogue Care Pack" directory so you can install them with no need to download! PLEASE feel free to suggest future additions to the Care Pack! This is to save you time with repeated downloads from your phone!
+++HTC Touc Input CAB - EZ Input SIP (better keyboard than the one cooked in to the build).
+++Windows Live Client for Windows Mobile (latest version).
+++Windows Mobile Marketplace Bootstrap (installs the small file which will donwnload the latest Windows Mobile Marketplace).
++++WinMoSquare - latest beta version of Touchality's Foursquare client for Windows Mobile.
NOTE: Once you have the CABs installed or if don't want to install ANY of these, you can simply delete the entire folder from the root of the phone. It will warn you that these are considered "system files" but it will cause no problems, stability issues, or errors when starting the phone. You are free to delete the folder to free up space on your phone!
---FYI from 5.0 - with SmartDialer added, it will auto-complete email addresses in the default or Windows Live for Windows Mobile Phone E-Mail clients.

September 8th, 2010:
Version 5.0 Changes:
-Included EZInput SIP. THANKS LMILLER!!! (note, I still recommend the slightly updated version from the URL above)
-Added SmartDialer
-Back to 6-Button COMM Manager from Diamond (no wifi in the device, no need for 10-button). (this will change probably back to the one from 1.0-3.0 in a future build).
-Removed HTC GPS Routing Tool
I have been experimenting with adding BatteryStatus / HomeScreen Plus Plus, but since I use Titanium and not Manila it doesn't seem to work too well - and have no ability to overclock (which is why I wanted the software in the first place). I have removed it from 5.0 but am considering it for future builds.

Version 2.0 Screen Shots:
__________
June 27th, 2010, NuVogue 1.0
This ROM is speedy, has the purportedly revised version of Internet Explorer, but most importantly is EXTREMELY stable. Reboots seem optional, and I haven't had a single freeze with this build - with a previous ROM I was using, it would seem stable until I used Task Manager to endtask a few things - that would cause it to freeze. I haven't been able to make this freeze yet!
NuVogue1.0
WM Build 28014
Built with PPCk-BuildOS.
Special thanks to JustPCTech for his support and the contribution of the SMS 2016 Timestamp fix.
Also, thanks to PPCKitchen.org user Mattsm for support and advice!
To install, follow the instructions in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592964
This ROM is CARRIER GENERIC, so don't forget to install your carrier CAB or else data won't work. ( Downloads: http://winbreak.com/winmo/voguegoodies/ ).
Includes SMS 2016 Timestamp Fix
Does NOT include Manila, if you wish to install it, you can choose your favorite flavor. Rumor is the one at the following URL is good:
http://www.bytetips.com/manila-3d-for-qvga-device/
I cannot confirm the reliability of the above linked program since I don't use Manila (thus the reason I have not included it with my build). The rest of the build is as follows.
Default Vogue 8-Button Comm Manager
Total Commander File Manager for Registry Editing
HTC Vogue Camera / HTC Album 2.5
.NET CF 3.5
Dialer from HTC Diamond
Default HTC Touch Keyboard, but if you install your own, I have included SIP Changer.
HTC Task Manager 2.1 & XButton
Titanium Customizer
Windows 6.5 Widgets (Weather, MSN Money, Live Search)
Long End Keypress - Hold END to Toggle things like Airplane Mode, to Lock The Phone, etc...).
Adobe PDF
Office Mobile / OneNote Mobile (I chose this older version intentionally because if you have purchased Office Mobile 2010 from the Mobile Marketplace, it will do an in-place upgrade with no errors).
Games (just because): Kevtris, Pocket Sand, Pocket Snake, Frogger, Bubblebreaker & Solitaire.

Thanks for your interest!
-NuAngel
Congrats on the release! Why did you choose such an old build, if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks!
Well, in my head, the build number was higher, so I figured it was newer. It wasn't until after I was tinkering with different builds that I learned a little bit more of how the numbering system worked.
Still, the more I tinkered with different build numbers, flashing some basically "naked" ROMs on to my phone, just to play with them for a day at a time or so, the more I really started to like this one.
Simply put, STABILITY was my biggest issue, and this build seems to have it!
I just hope others tinker with it for a little while, I don't expect to be the new chef around here, 1.0 might be my only release! But I thought I'd toss it out there to see if anyone was interested.
NuAngel
Okay Start
This is a nice start. However, some annoyances:
Did you notice the quick menu where the clock is? It isn't accessible.
The dialer is not aligned when I type in some numbers.
Have you've tried other HTC Applications?
HTC Calculator, HTC Album has better scrolling by the way. Perhaps you would love that, etc.
I hope you have not given up. Are you going to progress on this build?
Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it! Yeah, I noticed a few problems with the dialer as I was using it - unfortunate, because it's my favorite for ease of 'redialing' someone after a disconnect. Which happens between my girlfriend and I alot!
Also, with the quick menu, I noticed the problem (as seen in the first screenshot) - but don't know how to go about fixing it, yet. I'll look in to alternate albums and the like, and adding calculator.
I did want to update the thread and say that yesterday was my first reboot in 8 days!
NuAngel
Prowess,
Thanks again for the feedback - I have released a version 2.0 if you're intersted in checking it out. I kept the album that I have because I actually really like it. But other than that, I took quite a few suggestions that you made, you can see the change log for 2.0 above.
NuAngel
Nice ROM!
Flashed v2.0 yesterday and so far, so good. Keep up the good work!
Dial-bug
Very clean.
What I've done is I went to dial in my voice-mail. So I pressed the send key (green button) to open dial-pad. Pressed and hold 1 to get to voice-mail. It says to enter password, but I couldn't hear it well so I went to switch off dial-pad to get to speakers and turned them on. But I wasn't able to get there because twice, I've tried and froze, only the woman kept on saying 'please enter password' until it hung up. Tried getting back but the only option was the reset bottom button.
I've tried too many ROMS and was thinking that one day I will take in the knowledge to create one myself. Thanks for the inspiration,
Hey, Prowess! You're absolutely right, no ROM may ever be exactly what you're looking for until you decide to do your own. I look forward to trying to what you'll be releasing!
What's interesting was I tried to mimmick your problem - I could switch the speakerphone off and on a few times on different phone calls. However, one time, I was able to freeze up the phone when I tried to hide the dial pad, but I have succesfully hidden it multiple times to use the swap or speakerphone or other buttons (as seen in the screenshot above). Very strange.
Overall, the fastest way to switch the speaker off and on is to click the menu icon at the bottom right of the screen (to the left of the "X") then press up a few times to turn speakerphone on.
I'll keep tinkering to see what happens with this problem... I certainly haven't settled on a particular dialer. I appreciate the feedback!
NuAngel
Nice, and very fast boot. Some issues I like addressed next go is the dialer. love the big dial buttons. But it over laps your contacts that it tries to match the number with. And hard to see the number you are dialing in the top right hand corner. Especially at night. because it's dark blue. I would suggest white. But my biggest thing is the Keyboard. Would love to see a nicer one besides the defaults But besides that. A great fast bootable ROM. Thanks for the hard work man
Been trying to find out what keyboard was used in the Baroqi44's release. I'd LOVE to add that keyboard, but have no idea what it was. Any keyboard suggestions?
I've been tinkering with other dialers, but haven't found a good 'different' one - considering going back to the default Vogue dialer.
Currently I'm running Android and beta testing some software for a Germany company, so I have sort of put this project on a short hiatus, but I will be back to it soon.
Thanks for your feedback, ern88, and I'm glad you enjoy the boot speed! Thanks hope you enjoy the stability, too!
NuAngel
Hey NuAngel,
I haven't had any stability issues to report. Runs great. I am just impressed how fast it boots from start up. Hopefully future builders will take some pointers on what you have done in the aspects. ABout the keyboard, too bad you couldn't use something modeled after an apple iphone keyboard. But anything besides stock would be great. Thanks again
Updated with v. 3.0! Also, added a new SIP for download here:

Sent you a PM
Hello,
Just tried out the 3.0 ROM tonight, it looks pretty sharp. I have a few quick questions and comments.
Do Sprint customers need to install the mmssprint.cab Sprint MMS settings fix?
Is there a way to access the Block Recognizer input? (I was a Palm user for many years.)
Thanks for the feedback!
You should still use the mmssprint.cab file (If you need it, I have it hosted on my web page) for Sprint. If you don't install it, the only difference I've noticed, so far, is that when you get an SMS message, it will just be some garbled text with a link you can click in to take you the the sprint page - instead of "click to view" showing up as it does when you have the patch installed. Either way, you can still click the link and go to the web address, so I actually don't even bother installing it half of the time, on my own phone.
As far as block recognizer, it was removed from HTC products in Windows Mobile 6.5, from everything I've read. I don't know how to get it back, but after reading a large chunk of another thread, I found this post, where the user offers links to a couple of 3rd party programs that may work for you, and this post which has the WM6.1 "Block recog.cab" file which may or may not work for Touch 6.5 ROMs. Sorry I can't be of more help with that! I'll try to see if I can add it to any future releases, if I get another working phone in the near future.
NuAngel
Thanks to Does_It_Matter, this project will be back on track shortly. Stay tuned!
NuAngel
Installed this ROM, and it is very stable. It doesn't freeze up as often as other ROMS.
My only preferences, and perhaps you can help with, would be
-to revert back to the stock taskbar on the top, which allowed easy switching of programs
-be able to customize where camera photos are stored, etc. (perhaps it has this function, but I am unable to find it)
The biggest issue (and only one really, congrats!) is that I am having issues with the swype keyboard on your ROM. I've tested it with others, but Nuvogue seems very delayed and gives double suggestions (above the typing area, and also within a box). I'm not sure if this is an issue with the keyboard or the ROM, but it's the only thing that is preventing me from making this my permanent ROM.
btw, I really appreciate the late nights put into making these ROMs, and thank you for making such a stable one.
I'll try cooking Swype directly in a future build to see if it solves your problem. I, myself, prefer the EZKeyboard I point to in the original post - it's my favorite for Windows Mobile.
I sincerely appreciate your feedback, I'm doing a LOT of work to make 4.0 a big release, so I really hope it has everything you like and then some! As always, my biggest personal goal is increased stability, above all features. I hate rebooting my phone: you should, too! Once 4.0 is released, I look forward to your feedback about how Swype works for you, as well.
NuAngel
Just wanted to update everyone on the bad news that makes 4.0 a bit more lack luster than I really wanted.
First, I wanted to make a different build of WM6.1 style with the Start Menu on the TOP of the screen - but I can't get a stable enough build for all the things I want to do, and since Stability is my primary objective, it was sad.
Second, I am unable to cook in ANY new keyboards (SIPs), so I cannot add EZInput or Swype - and my research has shown that Swype is not very compatible with this particular build of Windows Mobile, very sorry!
Tip: for easy task switching, go to SETTINGS, then PERSONAL, then BUTTONS and assign the Camera Button to launch Task Manager instead of the camera... how often do you use camera that it's not just easier to go into the Start Menu, when you could make that button your Task Manager shortcut! Very easy!

hmm, installed, ran htc custom 1.8, tweaked very little (turned off sim contacts, moved pie cache to the sd card, turn on d-pad navigation for pie) restarted, and got the super long restart hang.
Just did the second SR, and still getting the re-boot hang
EDIT -- finally on the 4th SR I came back up ... I now turned of the PIE cache to SD card, thinking that may be my problem... all is ok at the moment.
did thanks

pocket cm and pocket keyboard are both awsome. is it just me or is this rom a lilttle on the slow side. i have been using 3.0 since release i tried 3.6 and it was great work, but it left a bad taste in my mouth on account of the slowness, this one is not as bad as 3.6 but i think a bit slower then 3.0
Keyboard lock in phone app
Hey vp3g,
great rom as usual - one question. If the phone app keyboard lock is fixed in the "official" ROM why doesn't it carry over into your ROM?
thanks
v3.0 vs 3.61?
I have read previous questions and answers comparing 3.0 to 3.6 If I am happy with v3.0 (which I am ) what is to be gained by upgrading to this newest version? Besides being able to more easily delete unwanted cab programs?
Thanks for all the great work;
Stephan Howard-Cooper
Love the new version so far, just installed it and played with it earlier. One thing that I did notice was different was the addition of the HTC Smart Dialing for WM. It makes the dialer seem a bit quicker, and it adds some good features. I think you might of left that bit of info out of the original post, vp3g. I saw no references to this addition.
As always, it works great.. no hangs on SR's. Keep up the good work

Not fixed in the "official" 3.61, AFAIK...
I just noticed I dont have a midlet manager.. I installed the "full" version also, and nothing appears in my Programs dir. Downloading a .jar/.jad file does not start up any java engine either. Are you sure its cooked in?
Is there a way to install it without another HR?

hmm - i am running 5.2.1620 18125.0.4.2 - at&t 3.61.502.1 currently and it is the only wm6 ROM that doesn't lock the numeric keys ...

One thing that I did notice was different was the addition of the HTC Smart Dialing for WM. It makes the dialer seem a bit quicker, and it adds some good features. I think you might of left that bit of info out of the original post, vp3g. I saw no references to this addition.

Well, that's technically an added benefit to having been able to use Sleuth's newly updated PTTFix for WM6 (which is referenced, btw). Previously I had to cook PTT completely out of the ROM, which killed the Smart Dialing because it's all wired together. With this release PTT is cooked, then negated by PTTFix. Which is why if you want PTT support you just simply remove PTTFix (and also why PTT_Reassign.cab and PTT_Enable.cab shouldn't be installed on this version).
End result is that I didn't know how to explain the foregoing concisely in the OP.

2.03.401.3
"STOCK" ROMS
I used to love the "original" official rom released by HTC since I've got my jewel...HTC development team is releasing really great roms I think. All the tweaks I need/like to apply to the roms I run on my diamond are very often just some reg. mods (i.e. wich ones available in programs like Advanced Config ade by Shaps or other ones that are very easy to find searching a little on this awesome forum) and, very often, theese reg tweaks are not good for everyone. Moreover, I don't think that the last OS or SYS is really required for a good rom, or, maybe, just not for the rom that I need.
CLEAN&NAKED
Anyway, like everything good, there's also a "dark side": in this case the "dark side" is that theese roms are full of (not always and not for all, but often for a lot persons) totally unuseful apps wich stay resident in memory even if, maybe, never used by the user. Moreover, I don't like to have installed in memory also the apps that I need and use because in this way I'm not able to update them when a new (maybe better/different) version is released.
So what I need/like/did -and want to share- is the rom that is currently running on my device, BASED ON LAST OFFICIAL DIAMOND ROM, SO "STOCK", BUT CLEAN&NAKED to allow me to update every single software I/the user want to use.
WHAT I'VE DONE:
Clean:
-Removed ULDR partition (3mb more storage memory);
-Patch the nk.exe (full kernel mode);
-Removed FWUpdates, Autoupdates, Play Show, Error Reporting, Catalog, CommonNonEA, Welcome Center, Ceipui.exe, SQM, IPSECVPN, Enterprise, all guide pages, all sample music/images/ringtones/ecc...
Undressed:
-Removed Manila, PhoneCanvas, Video Telephony, YouTube, Opera, Album, Audiomanager, Audiobooster, Java, GoogleMaps, Volume Control, USBtoPCpopup, EZ Imput, MP3 Trimmer, GSen Calibrator, Full Screen Player, Streaming Media, Task Manager, ConnectionSetup, LongPress endkey, Games (labirynth too), FM Radio, Office, One Note, Adobe PDF, Arcsoft MMS, Quick GPS, Voice Speed Dial, Voice Recorder, ZIP Manager, RSS Hub, Internet Sharing (just the app, all the .dll are there), SQLCEMobile, Transcriber, Windows Live/Windows Live Messenger.
FewLITTLEchanges*:
-Patched the NK.exe to allow the user to change the PagePool...currently is setting to 10mb, now you can easly change it with PagePoolPatcher;
-Updated NETCF to the 3.5 one;
-Changed the battery icon with one with also a % indicator;
-"Updated" FExplorer thanks to "FExplorer Extension";
-Skinned WMP with the diamond look one;
-Activated all camera modes (gps, sport, ecc..);
-4 icons in a row for programs and settings;
-Replaced Gwes with one taken by a >21xxx to allow:
-Rhodium Menu Replacement to work (included).
*theese changes are made just because I think that are all appreciated or (i.e. in case of Rhodium Menu) not available if not cooked in. Infact, even if it working on this "old" XIP build if cooked in, it cant work if installed via cab.
PS: I've not included also the notification manager 'cause it's still a little faulty/not really useful to me/too big in rom (1.7mb) facing of his REAL utility.
A VERY BIG THANK YOU GOES TO:
-ERVIUS for his visual kitchen - without it I couldn't remove the uldr and patch the nk.exe (cert and PP)
-DA_G & AMEET for their guides
-SWTOS for his vanilla roms - without his work maybe I've never flashed (and learn "how to" build) a naked rom
-PANOSHA for his open roms - I've learned A LOT dumping his roms
-WHO MADE THE THINGS I'VE ADDED - (i.e. Rhodium menu, battery icon, FExplorerExt)
-ALL THE PEOPLE WHO MADE A CAB AND SHARE IT WITH THE COMMUNITY - Without cab files...naked roms will be totally useless!!!
-THIS GREAT COMMUNITY and all the people I can't remember now...

Great! :-D
That is EXACTELY what i was ever looking for!!!
I will keep my actual rom for a while (since it's working great) and then try this one as soon as xboxmod releases a final and stable version of manila rhodium.
Great job man, thankyou for sharing your work.
You're welcome.
Hope you like it.

Again, i completely agree with those changes!!!
Are you going to become one of my preferred chefs along with Shaks, Suiller and Carburano?
A lot of people have been asking for a ROM like this.
May have to give it a shot
Thank you
Great, great release.
I started learning how to cook about a month ago cause i wanted a rom like this, but mine was always a little instable; now, before "finishing my studies", there it is!
Downloading and testing imediately!
thanks a lot!
Thank you, this is what I've been looking for.
does scrollwheel work on this one? how's bluetooth?
this looks like it could be interesting. be nice if there where a list of cabs for those converting from a "stacked" rom as it where.

Click to expand...

ScrollWheel works flawlessy in any rom. All you've to do is set the right keys in your registry.
Bluetooth works right because I've left into the rom all necessaries libraries/executables for it. I think that voip,bluetooth...connectivity in general is integral part of the system.
PS: if you want to set easy the keys for the wheel...just install shap's advanced configuration tool, open, go to the appropriate tab, then choose/add programs where you want to use the wheel.
Cheers.

only thing i have noticed is that after installing this rom,
is if i go into file explorer and use the right soft key "menu" it does nothing just flashes when its pressed. and if i go into phone the menu key does nothing aswell
maybe i am missing something to do with the comments in the first post about "rodium menu replacement"
Oh my god..I'm really sorry!
I've uploaded a version with the fingermenu template (a bmp image) with the wrong name!
I'll fix and reupload it as soon as possible!!!
EDIT: recooked, refalshed (it's all ok now), and reuploading...

3g does work if but youll need a 3g dialer. i didnt see it as an important feature as most people dont seem to use it. there are plenty of 3g dialers out there and most of the good ones youll find here on the forums or you could search on google

Home 2.0 - sweetest yet... man you have really blown it off the chart. I am thinking this is gonna be my new favorite. So far I haven't found a bug. I will mention that I had to flash the stripped ROM before I could flash yours. I am missing the calculator, would really like to see one with stat functions and basic algebra stuff, but even a 4 function would be welcome if it is skinned consistently.
Excellent work I'll keep you updated on my tour.
Flash complete.
Sync with Vista - complete. Napster download - good.
WIFI Scan & Connect -good.
Bluetooth a. iniate/deactivate from cp - good. b. initiate/deactivate from comm mngr - good. c. Connect to BT Headset - good. Stereo Quality - good.
Waking up. Turning on the device takes kinda longer than I'm used to.
Didn't notice a MMS app or device update (although CRC's shows in the remove programs applet).
Will look more tomorrow... so far .... Awesome!

Hi!
I have just installed the home ROM, as I'm looking for a fast and stable Manila2D alternative. Here's my first, quick opinion (as compared to Manila2D)
Pros (as compared with M2D):
+ Looks cooool, works VERY fast and smooth even though free memory usually is below 10MB.
+ On today screen you see all today's and tomorrow's appointments
+ There is a Task-applet
+ Home2 won't kill itself all the time
Cons
- Home2 (free edition) isn't sufficiently customizable. I.e. you can't add own cities to the world applet. Berlin isn't even included in the city list, so it's of no use for a german user.
- Free memory is too low to start some programs (i.e. YouTube). No easy way to exit Home2 to free up memory, though.
Will check for more later
Christina
Alsoloaded the home edition and love the gui, but have had a couple of issues coming out of s2u2 and gui not loading, needing to hard reset.
could you leave S2U2 out of the next release or at least having the option of uninstalling it if not required.
Other than that and the high memory usage i think its great, far nicer than Manilla and no other issues at present.
Keep up the good work
Love the Titanium and would prefer with S2U2. Too bad it freeze upon installing Arcsoft MMS v5. The NetWiz isn't stable, sometimes it didn't configure MMS well in the messaging drop-down. The MMS will go missing after a few MMS attemp. Do you have any idea where I went wrong.
And still I couldn't fine any suitable 3G dialer that can work with the Titanium.

I was considering adding s2u2 into my next titanium edition. Thought id start off with somthing quite basic and build on it based on the feedback i get. Youll definately see it in my next release.
As for arcsoft mms v5 ive read about people having alot problems in 6.5. I dont tend to use mms myself but decided to add it as its a feature that can be quite handy. Ill experiment more with it when building my next release and see if i can get it working to a worthwhile standard
Caution (beta time bomb)
Hi
Like the ROM very much, but there's a bit of a partystopper included: The ROM will lock itself on a certain date. Don't know exactly when, but it's some day before July 28th. I've changed the date to +4 months (to check whether a certain program has a trial period or not) and the phone was instantly and irreversibly locked: Everything was down, phone, WLAN, OS, USB. Hard resets wouldn't help, Activesync wouldn't connect. Nothing but this message on the screen:
"This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers...."
You have to reflash (via SD-card) to get the phone running again. This seems to be a common "feature" of many Beta-WM versions, as used in this ROM (i.e. read here about this too). Will have to find another ROM that won't expire...

If you do include it, could you make the option of uninstalling as I find it uses a lot of memory and when theres not a lot already its nice to save where possible.
The default screen lock is quite good on these new versions, especial;ly with your background wallpaper.
Look forward to trying your next1

SORRY FOLKS BUT AS MY DIAMOND HAS DIED AND I'M UPGRADING SHORTLY I'LL BE UNABLE TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THIS ROM. MORE INFO: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6115263&postcount=205
Thanks to the following
Evirus – for the visual Kitchen
l3v5y – for the Kitchen and base rom (and for help and advice.)
the_scotsman – for giving me the bug (lol) and for help and advice
Badwolve1 – for help and advice
Amarullz – for themes, and all the hard work modding Sense and loads of other Apps so we can use them.
awran5 – for kitchen help and packages
The point of the forums is to help others and share our work. The above are positive examples to all.
POINTS TO NOTE!!!!
This is a test rom using 6.5.X so I can see how well Sense actually runs and how much free RAM I can get.
I’ll try to respond to posts as soon as I can but with working full time and having 5 kids, my ‘XDA TIME’ is a little limited.
I’ll apologise now for slow responses and I promise I’ll get back to everyone as soon as I can
I’m not aiming to release new builds every day; I’ll try to bug fix in batches.
I’ve put this together for my personal use so I’ve removed just about everything from the rom.
Please don’t ask me to ‘add this’ or ‘add that’. Everything people are likely to want is available in cab form with a bit of looking.
I STRONGLY ADVISE MITTY AND HARD RESET WHEN FLASHING

PLEASE NOTE SOME PEOPLE ARE HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE INITIAL SETUP OF THIS ROM. PLEASE SKIP THE SETUP OPTIONS WHERE THE ROM ASKS YOU TO SET DATE AND TIME / PIN. SET THEM ONCE THE ROM HAS FINISHED SECOND BOOT.
EMAIL ISSUE FIX
Go the following Key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Inbox\Templates\IPM\Note]
Change the following value from:
"Read"="\\Windows\\HTC_read_note.htm"
TO:
"Read"="\\Windows\\read_note.htm"
change Compose to:
"Compose" = \\Windows\compose_note.htm"
Internet sharing link in Start Menu not working (removed the software but the link won't go!!)
Sounds & Display issue in manila settings
problem can be fixed... do this:
1. Go to the settings tab in Sense, and press the "Menu" button at bottom right of screen, then choose "All settings" (this opens the Windows Mobile 6.5 Settings folder)
2. Open the Sounds & Notifications control panel, switch to the "Notifications" tab, and hit "OK".
Now you'll find the Sounds & Display option in Sense works fine.
sense sometimes does not boot on soft reset. go to settings, disable sensethen soft reset and re-enable sense.
sms does not work via sense. use all messages to use the windows sms.
reigional settings messed up (will look at this asap)

no rush, i'm still working on it. all feedback is most welcome
This ROM looks really nice, and if I was going to cook something I'd have also tried l3v5y's base ROM and Manila 2.5.
Flashed and will try it over the next few days.
Two little (minor) problems:
- Found it hard to set the date to 24 January 2010. It wouldn't "stick" the first few times I tried. Eventually it "stuck" when I first changed it to 23 January 2010, and then moved forward one day
- The connection wizard thing assumed I'm on T-Mobile (not, on Virgin Mobile), but since I think they use the same network, its probably not an issue - but other ROMs have offered me the choice of Virgin Mobile.
Other than that, it looks beautiful, and its all working OK, and I've synced with my Exchange Server, Facebook etc.
Thanks!

no probs, thanks for the feedback. i've never had that issue cos the date and time syncs through device centre on my pc.. have you tried that?
i'm uploading a slightly ammended version that gives more free ram. the look and feel is the same but it might not be to everyones taste.
No settings
Has anyone noticed that the settings icon doesn't come up in the start menu and therefore you can't change the settings? This is a seroius problem and needs to be fixed!

i'm averaging the 26 without issue. but remember your applications don't close with the 'X' so you will need to shut them down mannually using the task manager or the Ram will drop..
to give you an idea went out the other day for a drive about 60 mins of tomtom use plus music, didn't use all the ram.

I'm in favour of this. Getting Windows Mobile 6.5 and Manila 2.5 to work together on our Diamonds is always going to be about compromise. I'd rather lose a few seldom used features in order to gain more RAM.

XT9 predictive text
Hi,
This is a fantastic ROM. just enough RAM free to make it quite usable.
Maybe add something like Ramsweeper as a 1 click option to close all those programs we forget to exit properly...
I'm having problems with the XT9 predictive text. It just doesn't seem to work at all - as if there's a crossed mapping somewhere in the works. Anyone else see this? Hit a and A pops up above, but in the predictive area it's z, q comes up as a, t - k, s - c. other letters such as all of the bottom row don't bring up anything.
Any ideas?
Cheers again for the great ROM.
Welcome to XevRev Vogue Series!
If you have never flashed a custom ROM onto your phone before, you must unlock your phone! Instructions can be found here!
This is for CDMA based Touch (Vogue) phones! GSM phones (this means your Touch has a SIM card) are not compatible and flashing this ROM onto a GSM could render your phone permanently disabled!
This is the first release of XevRev, based on WM6.5 28014 and 21889 with XPR compression. You will notice the similarities to NuVogue because NuAngel and I are real-life friends who share our knowledge on cooking.
The basic methodology of my ROM's is to create a suitable "OEM" replacement ROM. That means there will be a focus on stability, usability and ease of use; along with an "out-of-box" experience that should require no major adjustment once flashed. This also means that the ROM will feature a very trim set of "stock" applications. I want to enjoy using my phone, and any tweak or change I make needs to make my experience more enjoyable and simple.
One of the main points of XevRev's core builds will be the focus on SenseUI. 1.0 will utilize the same SenseUI 2.0.2016.3224 packages found in NuVogue 8. There will be no focus on Titanium due to the ridiculous amount of tweaking and (imo) "garbage" applications required to make it work flawlessly with little hassle.
XevRev will only be released with carrier specific builds. I have developed XevRev with Verizon in mind, but I would hope that the other builds are just as stable and capable. The main reason for a focus on carrier specific builds is that it seems to get programming/roaming update working (at least on Verizon). This means you can program your phone without flashing back to a stock carrier ROM like some people have had to, or manually updating PRL files. It also means you won't have to update your PRL after using some REALLY old carrier cabs (which just REALLY ticked me off).
I will now explain how XevRev development will move forward for the short term. XevRev will not be developed like many roms, and will not receive a "major" release every build (example with NuVogue 1,2,3, etc). Instead, it will receive minor updates addressing issues with the current software, then major releases that add new features.
1.0 series
This series will focus on getting the basics right. There will be ZERO focus on GPS features in 1.0 because of my inability to test them because of letting Verizon's customizations run. *edit* 1/21/11 - I have obtained my new XV6900.
What is on the XevRev 1.0 to-do list:
Adding MightyMike and Juggalo_x's tethering fix to beta 2! TOP PRIORITY!
Setting the following registry values to be default out-of-box:
Getting nueSIPDefault or another SIP Default software to make Swype primary keyboard.
Disabling WM built in word suggestion.
Disabling Swype's built-in auto suggestion.
Removing Music tab from SenseUI
Removing Programs tab from SenseUI
Removing Wi-Fi options from com manager.
Finding a fresher default sound system to drop in.
Finding the "Verizon Train" sound effect for messaging. This is only for myself and not for the main build, just so I can bug my buddy to hell and back with it! lol Found it on my new Touch Pro2. Muhuhahaha!
Making Opera the browser that will load from SenseUI Home screen.
Making about:blank he default page that will load from SenseUI Internet screen.
Replacing Earth with Opera logo in SenseUI Internet Screen.
Possibly replacing HTC Mega theme with a different theme.
Possibly cooking in SBP Time (demo).
Possibly replacing ArcSoft Messaging client with another SMS client.
Possibly removing nuePerformance.
Possibly add an auto home screen lock that doesn't completely @#$% me off.
Possibly add in EZ Input. ADDED IN 1.0 BETA 2!
Possibly remove Total Commander since it is a power user feature.
Fixing the weather update on the home screen. COMING IN 1.0 FINAL.
Remove any modules that are not doing anything at all!
What is on the XevRev 2.0 to-do list:
Porting CDMA Phone Canvas to QVGA.
Making Youtube app function.
More to come...
XevRev 1.0 features!
System
XPR compressed ROM. This is the best compression to use on Vogue, and provides faster loading and better loading performance then no compression at all, and faster overall speed vs LZX.
SenseUI 2.0.2016.3224 based mostly on Mega Ext TMO_UK_1.33.110.2 package, along with crazy4tricks's Manila SenseUI 2.0.2016.3224 package.
HTC Default M2D theme.
HTC Vogue Dialer with working program codes on Verizon Wireless (*228 PRL update and phone programing should work 100%).
xTask 2.3b4, with task icons pre-disabled. I picked this task manager for ease of use.
nuePerformance - for boot benchmarking.
nueSIPDefault - for setting SIP input to a different keyboard during boot.
ArcSoft Messaging 5.2.2.64
Imaging
HTC Vogue Camera app from PPCk (if anyone has anything newer that works, please let me know!).
HTC Album 3.0.1918.2223.
Input
Swype Keyboard 3.9.22.22(apparently) with Baly23's Touch like skin cooked in. Original WVGA Swype theme has been removed to save space! Keyboard loads much faster then when installing manually, but may still be too laggy for some (looking for feedback). Please donate to Baly23 for this wonderful QVGA skin!
EZ Touch Input from HTC Mega! This package shouldn't be as buggy as the old one found in PPCK. I have discovered no bugs with it.

Noticeable things you will find missing from this ROM
Codes folder - I have removed this from my dev builds, because for whatever reason, it would prevent my phone from receiving PRL updates from Verzion's *228.
Gobs of games - Seriously, how often do you play these things? I drive around to places, I don't take a bus. If I did, I would take my Nintendo DS instead of playing on my Vogue.
Carepackages *poke's NuAngel* - Takes too much space up in the rom, plan and simple. You can delete it, but the space is never freed up.
Crappy default themes from PPCK - Seriously, how old is some of this stuff? I want my phone to feel fresh, not dated. Replacing the default theme is a high priority.
SenseUI themes found here - Many of these themes are based on the dated look of Sense 1.0, and they are just ugly. Instead look in this thread for Sense 2.0 themes. Unsure how many are optimized for QVGA.
Manila 2D Customizer (M2DC) 0.29.235. This is not compatible with this build of Manila 2D 2.0.

Changes between 1.0b1 and 1.0b2
Added Build #81+
-Added MightyMike and Juggalo_x's tethering fix. I'd rather be safe then sorry. Not sure how well this fix still works.
-Added aGPS Confirmation package from HTC Mega. I don't know why I forgot this. Please test GPS features and give feedback!
-Added EZ Touch package from HTC Mega, seems to be working great! Perhaps this will fix whatever bug people talked about with the PPCK package found in NuVogue. If you want this as the default SIP, remember to set it in nueSIP!

If any links are dead or do not work, please private message me and I will fix them! All link to new domain name now.
If you want another carrier other then the ones listed above, simply request it and I will build both flavors for that carrier. I may release a generic one in the future after beta testing is completed.
Have fun and good night everyone!
I look forward to everyone's input. Development of XevRev started 09/24/2010, it was almost to the point of release in early November, but I've been busy with my new job! I hope everyone enjoys the fruits of my efforts.
I am considering a Paypal donation link, but I'll leave that for another day, along with the first screenshots.
Are both 28014 and 21889 equally stable? I know that 28014 is 6.5.3 and 21889 is 6.5 but was just wondering if they are equally stable lol.
Bell #80 doesn't work...please.

my testing with 21889 has been that it's as stable as the 28014 build. i would like feedback on 21889 to see if others find it stable.
The manila packages I'm using are from the HTC Mega, and that ran on 21889 which is why I thought to try it. SenseUI feels much faster with this build, but it's not as thumb friendly with task managers and hitting the start button. My new Touch Pro2 uses 21887. so I'm wagering that the builds in that series are stable.
As for build 80, I will fix it when I get home later. Is the link wrong or is the file corrupted somehow?
*edit* Fixed those links. Should be good to go.
I am uploading Beta 2 builds tonight. In addition to the builds I have previously done, I will be adding South Cellular. My upload speed is currently crap, so I may have to upload the rest in the morning after I get access to a cable connect.
I have uploaded pics from the beta 2 Verizon builds. I couldn't snap pics of Swype and Touch Input for whatever reason.
Beta 2 will add what has been listed above previously, I think the biggest is a much newer EZ Touch package then what everyone was used to in NuVogue, in addition to the aGPS prompt (GPS should work fine after this on all GPS enabled phones). I also added the tethering fix just in case, I need to do some file checks to see if the default PPCK files are already hacked or not (or I might just as in the IRC chatroom when I have time).
I'll make sure the uploads and links are posted (correctly) before I head to work tomorrow afternoon (EST -5 GMT).
If the testing of beta 2 goes well, then I will make my next release the true 1.0 and start working on some real improvements (Like getting Youtube to work, and adding QuickGPS).
Testers, please give me input on the following:
Swype Experience
Touch Input Experience (Beta 2)
Can your phone be programed and receive PRL updates on your carrier (I have confirmed this working on Verizon only!)?
TouchFLO Experience
Dialer Experience (particularly on non Verizon, and on all 28014 builds!)
21889 Stability
GPS Experience (Beta 2 only please)
xTask Experience
Any repeatable crashing on any build!
I recommend everyone to reboot your phone after your first boot with XevRev. This will particularly increase performance in 28014 builds (for whatever reason). Thanks everyone for giving my new rom a shot!
Sorry havent been around for a while, been moving. Will install this and test as soon as i can find my cables (hehe).
XevRev 1.0 beta 2 Released! 12/17/2010!

Remember to reboot your phone once after initial flash to get the best performance, especially with 28014 builds!
Instead of making everything brown like the mega sense have you considered black like the newer 3d versions of sense (ie. Rodium ). I made the Black theme on the second post of your link (sense/manila 2.0 themes). I have tonnes of system files that I ahven't deleted yet to get rid of every trace of brown from the mega if your interested.
P.S. gonna flash this baby on the old Vogue after Christmas to test it out, cool to see someone new take up development. My old Vogue is now a "PDA / MP3 player" for my oldest Son since I moved to the Desire but this looks fun enough to test out.

RE: ROM for Vogue (Bell)
hi,
I've been reading your posts, and seeing all the releases.
What's the best version for my HTC Vogue, on Bell ?
I think you now have a Beta 2 ...can I use that on it?
thanks
KC
also, any kind of GPS/Turn by turn navigation like tom tom or something that could be incorporated into this build, or if you guys know of a good one for Vogue on bell ?
I'll be sure to donate soon...
thanks
KC
For Bell, Use either Bell Canada ROM (unless they are still around in the US, let me know if that's the case then I'll figure something out.)
As for turn by turn navigation, Google maps is installed. i am currently unable to test the GPS features, but next week I am going to go threw the process of flashing my Vogue so it will have working GPS for testing (lots of time off for the holidays).
As for the theme, I world love to have a nice black theme like on my new RhodiumW, if anyone has a link to one that will install in cab format, I'll oemize it and toss that in instead!
Installed it yesterday evening. Everything is running smoothly; no crashing. Only thing that I have a problem is that the Weather doesn't update under the clock

I'll zip up all my graphic files for my jmitr mega black theme and send it to you. With four kids and Christmas coming soon, be patient though!
I designed my theme based on the Rodium look, it's the closest I know of
Jason
awesome. look forward to it. I'd love to see some pics of it if you have time to post a few.
As for the weather issue, I'll look into it.
Well, its going to take me awhile longer to get GPS up and running. Even though I got the GPS unlocked easily, for some reason my ERI has disappeared on the phone, now I can't program it. WTF
The GPS works fine with Google Maps on my Bell Vogue.
Good to know. I plan on adding QuickGPS at some point, but without being able to test it, seems like a pointless idea atm.
I unlocked the GPS on mine finally, but I still haven't figured out the ERI issue. If anyone with a Sprint Vogue could do the following it'd be a great help:
Dial ##diag# and put the phone in diagnostic mode.
Open the file system in either QPST or Bitpim and navigate to /ERI and tell me the name of the file there + extract/rar it.
This information must be from a Sprint Vogue, no other carrier will help me. ~_~ The file names seem to be completely different between carriers.
Yes, my phone is completely ERIless.. (WTF). I might make another post for this issue so I can fix it. I have NO idea how I nuked the ERI, but its really gone and I can't program the phone anymore. lol Perhaps I can test GPS features using a laptop and standing outside.... in the snow..... wait, I don't like that idea. lol
Hopefully this week I'll have time to dig into XevRev_V a bit more. I'd like to make a few tweaks before I really dig into making a Touch Pro2 release for my new phone (and i really hate Verizon's stock roms!).
