Hiya Tom, I tried that, still didnt work, which was strange, My conclusions are now that its a VISTA thing, because i went next door to use my friends XP laptop, and it worked first time,

Ill be honest Tom , im now using your V4.0 rom, and its the best effort yet, best rom i have ever used, i havent found any bugs at all, and its fast as hell..... Tom you are the best.

Cool i get it. Now if I prefer the 4.0 dialler after installing this one can I just uninstall (and how would I do that) or would I have to reflash the whole rom?

Thanks for answering my newbie questions!

hi everyone.

since yesterday evening i have flashed to the new b&b v4.0 touch flo rom... everything was fine until today evening.

now i have a serious problem:

when i have used my artemis, then i press the standby button. when i will reaktivate the artemis out of standby the display stays black. when i press the red button to end a call i can hear the beep-sound. after a softreset the wheel, blue ball don't do anything. also the lighting is out of funktion. when i press again the power button to get the artemis into standby and want to reactivate it ...the same problem.

when i will change e.q. the brightness for display, nothing happens.

the last software i have installed today:

htc splashscreen and b&b 4 "a tom codon rom",

windows live (messenger)

does somebody have the same problem?

Can I just add my heart felt thanks and appreciation to Tom, I only caught this thread tonight.

I downloaded and installed this onto my O2 Orbit. I am already tried there WM6 update and v4.0 went on without a problem.

You know what? I love it, much faster and nicer to the eyes.

I only have one small question and I could not find the answer after a search, does anyone know the settings to setup the MMS and the O2 mobile web settings? I thought there was a cab file, but I can't find it anywhere.

Cheers

WM SDK ?

No idea if it will work when you uninstall. I believe Windows Mobile SDK would be a good idea for you to test before install in 'real live' :D

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...3a-a651-4745-88ef-3d48091a390b&displaylang=en

You can test applications in a virtual environment and when you really want, you can install on your 'real' phone... maybe this problem never happend when you did it this way :cool:

I can't get TouchFLO working on the Contacts button. I have try-ed the registry trick and i have try ed it with RemapSoftkeys. The key-name changes to TouchFLO but for some strange reason it starts the agenda. How can i fix this?

Second question is, is there a way to change the screen after the first splash-screen? I'm making myself a airbrushed prone and now i have changed the first screen but also would like to have the second in the style i would like to have.

EDIT.

This is what i have placed in the "Open" part of the registry.

Camera problems

Problems I have with the camera are:

- Contact pictures are not saved (so you can't use them)

- GPS foto's still not working

- foto's and video's are stored in the seem folder

- when you make a movie the movie is not showing under album (but it is in the folder)

- when you try to play a recorded video you receive an error saying "the source filter for this file could not be loaded"

Does anyone know if there is a cab file for the camera or who to contact to get these problems fixed???
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] SnowFire:
hey guys,

i think i got the reason...

everytime after i installed the cab-file for the wm6 bootscreen from htc where you see only the htc logos with the picture of a city in black/white colors.

when i installed the "a tom codon rom" bootscreen everything gone well.

greets from germany/berlin
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Sponzert:
Sorry Tom, try-ed that. Lets start from scratch here Tom, sorry for the inconvenience.I go to the 112 folder and there i have Default and Open. Default is the name of the button. Then i go to Open. There i have the value name and that is open. Did not changed that. Then i have Value Data and there i have put the line you have told me (the right one) and still i get my Calendar.

This is what i put there as one line.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Innovator:
Great Rom, only some minor personal tweaks / Dialpads / PPC applications / IGO MyWay8

Hi All,

Great 4.0 rom from Tom, only some minor tunings for personalisation :

- Original HTC bootscreen with earthexplosion nicer (best ever seen)

- Can the second bootscreen be removed or replaced and how ? If only one bootscreen maybe faster bootup

- Added MSN Messenger (left out or forgotten, allthough in 3.7 present)

- When wifi is activated & you click on the wifi symbol above, there is still a bug, you can not choose to turn it off directly, only turn on but it's allready on, so only through communiction manager, longer way

- Touchflo with 3D cube works, but after chosing an application eg. IE, and closing IE, the touchflo is gone again, would be nice if the selection screen returns

- How can I replace the contact manager by the PM Contacts easiest (maybe standard in the next rom?)

Dialpads

--------

I Tested some dialpads from this forum, but still looking for a good one, liked the 3.7 but numbers were green. Does anyone know a perfect dialpad with nice layout and with big picture of the person you dial? Someone asked Tom to post the 3.7 but i think for the DADy Phonepad.zip the picture is smaller?

PPC Tools

---------

- Which tools do you use for wifi scanning? I still use the old hitchhiker 4.1beta

- I wonder who has overclocked processor (still haven't) and which speeds max

- What are your favorite tools at the moment?

GPS

----

Anyone tested IGO MYWAY 8? Seems nice in 3D (see http://www.i-go.com/en/news/index.php?aid=110)

TomTom's layout gets boring...

Cheers!

iGO vs TomTom

But IMHO TomTom has the most userfriendly interface. iGo has too small buttons to use by finger only....but the graphics are much better in iGO.

Hello all!

Just upgraded to the lovely v4.0 rom, Touch flow works great! But now I've stumbled upon a minor 'flaw': after choosing a custom background picture (just a normal photograph) for the today screen, the theme changed from the stylish black to the blueish one. Cant say I like that. Now I can't figure out how to return to the original theme, after removing the custom background. In the settings->today screen, there's only the Windows Default theme to select. Can anyone help me retrieve the original black layout?

The picture attached is my current situation.

Thanks!

READ THE FORUM POSTS!! That is, after all, the point of this forum. Tom is aware of this and has indicated that he is looking into it. Posting the same thing repeatedly will only get you rude replies like mine. It serves nothing but adding extraneous posts to what is already a 43 page post!

I have one QUESTION.....

Can I use HTC Home 3 Tabs, Because I think 5-6 Tab have same function with Touch cube, such as photo dial.....and I don't love HTC Audio manager or WMP- cause I want more bass when I listening musics.....

I try to install HTC Home 3 Tabs but It can't. After I install Today still show 6 Tabs, but when I install 5 Tabs- It can show 5 Tabs,

How can I do.....TOM....?

- Added MSN Messenger (left out or forgotten, allthough in 3.7 present)

Live messenger in B&B 3.7 has synchronization problem, The number of online friends is always 0. the build 1400 fixed this. search "WLM Build 1400" to get it.

- Touchflo with 3D cube works, but after chosing an application eg. IE, and closing IE, the touchflo is gone again, would be nice if the selection screen returns

- How to change phone's keypad ? I prefer the last one (in 3.7).

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Sponzert:
I think this will help you. It's from the 3.7 post but i guess it will work in the 4.0 as well.

Regarding the color, open up PHM Regesit and navigate to "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Color"

Modify the BaseHue value to 160 (Remember its decimal) This'll set it back to black, but it'll change again if you swap themes

ОТЛИЧНО

GREAT & PERFECT ROM TOM :)

Here are few observations:

1. All in all this ROM is indeed faster than 3.7 and 45MB free storage is really needed

2. Nice inclusion of latest BatteryStatus and especially with matching colors (CPUScalar = 143Mhz min and 273Mhz at boost)

3. When WiFi is activated & you click on the WiFi symbol above, there is still a bug ... you can not choose to turn it off directly, only via Comm Manager. (that is OK for me though)

4. As noticed by others ... Camera - Photo Contacts is not being saved. The rest is fine.

5. With new 6 button HTC Home I got rid of Spb Mobile Shell

6. TouchFlo is working nicely and w/o any problems

7. GPS (iGO, Pocket GPS Pro and others) and other Communications working nicely

8. Pocket CM is slow .... I guess it is still very raw piece of code. Though I like the feature of SMS history being shown as conversation ... neat.

9. Windows Live not included - not a problem for me.

10. Still gotta try out the JAVA Midlet ..... hope it is working this time.

11. Oh, Audio Manager with HTC Home and Cube is awesome + plus I can now switch of the screen = really cool.

I though have ONE Important question .... here is what I have noticed: If with any app (SKTools or Tweaks2K2 or manually) I change the SCROLL BARS width from default 13 to 8 (making scroll bar much thinner), I loose the finger scrolling feature wherever the scrolling is there. Putting the setting back to default 13 (from any other number) get's the finger scrolling back. TOM do you know how to resolve this issue, or perhaps some one else. I guess something has to be changed in registry once I make the scroll bar thinner !!!!

Спасибо огромное за проделонную работу :)

P.S. For users. If you still are not aware of how to play Youtube/Google videos easily check out the following link (perhaps in next ROM Tom can add this feature:rolleyes: ):

boot screen freeze after cab install - screen sensibility

BB v4 is working perfectly.

Two questions:

1. After installing for example the 3.7 dialer, everything is OK, but after normally installing the "HTC X-button 1.51" the boot screen freezes. It is not possible to "upgrade" the built-in parts of the rom?

2. Somehow I feel that the upper right corner of the screen is much less sensible than it was earlier. Especially in IGO it is hard to push the MENU button. Of course I calibrated thoroughly.

Thanks for the ROM, this is stunning! And it's very fast!

The bugs I found where:

-Today screen isn't updated when you add/remove a plugin. Only after a soft reset.

-No sounds for the start menu, and when launching a program (not really a bug perhaps)

-Can't play some audio and video files.

-Alot of files can't be included in the backup with Sprite backup.

@Tom: Why don't you let the Windows-Default-Theme untouched and put the black B&B-Skin as an additional skin on that device. So the problem with the BaseHue value seems to be eleminated.
