Donation For Custom Tilt Rom

Hey folks, I'm an infant member to this site in terms of posting. However, I've been reading thread-after-endless-frigging-thread regarding how to get my new Tilt working optimally. (BTW, I got the it on Amazon for $149 with a new 2-yr contract, which will end up costing $99 after a $50 rebate.):D

At this point, I'm brain-dead and willing to offer a negotiated "Donation" to

EITHER

of you senior chefs out there (Dutty?, Schap? Alex?) who can create a customized ROM for me. I've flashed 2 of Dutty's ROMs (HTCHome kept losing quick contacts or didn't work at all), 1 of Schaps (can't remember what the issue was) and 1 of Alex's (this was way too empty - I like a bit of the AT&T bloatware. Yea, I know, but that's my biz.) I've been searching this site for the most appropriate ROM for the last seven days non-stop, and my family is now ready to send me to a cellphone rehab facility.

Finally, I've resorted to putting the original ROM back on, but am having mucho problems and still getting no joy.

For the record, I'm a girl-tech and no stranger to desktop repairs, yada, yada, yada. I just can't figure out this cellphone sh*t. :confused:

Here's what I want in my ROM:

1. Pretty (Maybe Pink or Gold) Skins. Would LUV a cool picture of Obama on my home screen. I have one, but it gets hidden by HTC Home. Can provide this to you if needed.

2. A FLAWLESS AND WORKING HTCHome, TouchFlo & Cube with pretty icons (Slither's is nice)

3. PTT Key mapped to my registered copy of Voice Command 1.6 (I've already successfully done the registry tweak once.)

4. Calligrapher 8.6 (I have a purchased copy of this as well)

5. Live Search

6. PHM Regedit or SK Tools (I am currently using PHM)

7. Easy and functioning access to Youtube

8. All of the needed SMS & MMS functionality for an AT&T customer with a Data Plan.

9. SPEED & MEMORY (Maybe some overclocking?)!!!!

10. Don't need AT&T Mall or AT&T Music, Telenav, or Tiger Woods PGA Tour or Shop Games Icons, but want all the game trials & everything else (unless you can provide a good argument for getting rid of other stuff I don't need.)

11. The ability to name my device whatever I want (for instance, to put periods and spaces in the name so that it can match the Jeyo Mobile Extender registration I already have.)

12. Lightening fast ability to add new bluetooth devices. (Maybe an icon on the Home screen? I know I can go to Comm Mgr but that takes too long.)

13. An 8 or 10-tabbed Comm Manager.

14. Any and all cool bells and whistles imaginable to make a techy girl like me smile and squeal in delight.

15. Lastly, an "I've got a crush on Obama" ringtone.:p

Okay Chefs!! Let the cooking begin!!!! PM me to negotiate the "Donation."

If I've violated any forum rules in my post, blame it on my head and not my heart.

Oh Yeah, forgot to add that I'm only flashing with Vista boxes cause I don't have any XP boxes set up anymore. Moderator - May I add my phone # to a post so that I can have quicker responses?

Don't add your number. You don't want it public. You do realize that there is a solution to adding the contacts to the favorites in duttys rom right? You just have to add them from the cube.

Thx for the reply erikk. Yea, I know I can do that, but I really loved them on the homepage. Also, as you saw, there's a lot of other stuff I want that I don't know how to do. For the sake of expediency and household peace, I think it's time to call in a pro.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] erikk:
Adding them to the cube does add them to the homepage. You just have to add through the cube for them to stick. Having said that of course that doesn't have anything to do with the other items you mentioned but if that was the big stumbling block maybe that'll get you close enough to get where you want to be.

Hello there,

Install sdkcerts on ATT ROM

I have been trying to install the sdkcerts.cab on my Tilt with the ATT Rom. It is always unsuccessful. I have read that ATT may have the phone "software locked". I can't seem to find a solution without replacing the ROM (which I prefer not to do-Company phone), but I do want to install some of the add-ins that need sdk. Is there a solution or work around?

Been trying to find a solution for about a week without success.

Calligrapher 8.6 & MSVC 1.6

Fellas, please help out this Damsel in Distress! I've flashed Dutty's DualTouch V4 to test it out, and I even tried his WM6 Beta. No matter what ROM I have, I can't get Calligrapher 8.6 & MSVC 1.6 to work properly. I've searched and read multiple threads, and still can't find a solution.

Both installed correctly. With MSVC, I have the PTT button mapped, and when I push the button, I can hear the beep both on my Tilt and on my Plantronics 590. But calls are not announced, I don't hear the program's voice, and no commands are recognized. With Calligrapher, I select the SIP and the icon and keyboards show up, but nothing I write is recognized.

In case I didn't make myself clear earlier, I am more than willing to make a donation to anyone who helps me get my phone set up the way I want.

By the way, Dutty, I think I'm gonna LOVE this ROM!!! Even though I've customized my home screen and done a lot of other tweaks, I do wish that there was more color throughout. If it ends up working out for me, I'll buy you a pizza or something.

MMMMUAH!!!!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
Its been a while since ive been on this thread since its been transferred over to the wiki, so to those that had a ? specifically directed towards me, i apologize. In regards to your problem with vista, make sure that you FIRST have windows mobile device center installed, then connect your Tilt to the computer, then run HardSPL, and it should work fine. I flashed HardSPL using vista ultimate and ran into no problems, as well as many others (austinsync comes to mind off the top of my head). If youre still having problems after doing what I just suggested, PM me and I'll try to help you further. Hope this works out for you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
If you BOUGHT MSVC 1.6 and installed it from windows on your tilt using the included exe file it should work fine. If youre using a .cab file that has been floating around on torrents, well :mad:

and as what was said previously, if you have some money and are using a rom that someone spent a good amount of time on (dutty, alex, or schaps comes to mind), make a donation to their paypal account if they have one. Also, think about making one to chainfire since he spent literally about 100 hours working on the video drivers issue and is currently working on the class action lawsuit that is about to happen.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
ugggh, this is not a tilt specific question but seeing as im awake ill answer anyways...go to settings -->today--->items tab-->and uncheck "quick start". Then press the ok button a few times and you should be set.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Doug2873:
ive never heard of the sdkcerts.cab failing on an install, but your best bet would be to flash it to a non-at&t rom...there are guides for reverting to an ATT Rom and bootloader should you ever need to return it, but its your call...

Damsel in Distress

Okay fellas. I've not received any responses thusfar that have helped me out. Is there a problem? Am I asking inappropriate questions???

Doug2873: Yes I do have a purchased copy of MSVC, and after yet another crash and restore, I installed and got it to work. However Calligrapher 8.6 (also purchased) still will not work.

Dutty: Since your ROMs get the best reviews and have the most users on this site, I'm gonna try your WM6 Beta ROM, since the DualTouch v4 has crashed about 5 times whenever I turn on and off by pressing the power button. It boots to the Pirate screen and that's it!!! Reset, restore, etc., etc. (By the way, I found Sprite Backup 6 for $10.!!!:D

As I stated, once I find a ROM that is stable and sweetly tweaked, I'll make a donation. Until then, I'm gonna keep experimenting since no one will take me up on the offer to create a custom ROM.:(

Damsel In Distress

Also, since I'm being ignored on this site because noone loves me yet, I'm gonna risk getting yelled at by asking a question: How do you access the bootloader state on the tilt? I've read and found how the "how to unbrick" in the WIKI but it told me download an activesync plugin for WMDC (which I did), then hold down the power and OK buttons simultaneously. It didn't work. This is why I keep needing to restore after crashes.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] SH4YD33:
Hold down the power button, camera button, and put the stylus in the soft reset hole right above the charge port.

Thanks again!

Calligrapher 8.6

Hey fellas:

Just thought I'd share this response from PhatWare regarding a Calligrapher 8.6 bug. I pinpointed the malfunction to a conflict with TouchFlo, and wrote to them regarding the bug. They say it isn't a bug, but IMHO, I think it is. The issue is (as stated below) that as soon as you enable TouchFlo in ANY ROM, you can no longer get Calligrapher 8.6 to recognize any handwriting functions. There's also another bug that causes Calligrapher 8.6 to enter

arbitrary characters when you do an install, even after you do the soft reset, and even if TouchFlo hasn't been enabled. I'm gonna hound them till they address these issues and admit that they are bugs.

I will post again when I receive more responses.

P.S.: Senior Members - should this info be placed in the WIKI?

P.P.S: Dutty, I'm still running your WM6 Beta. As soon as I can get MSVC to work correctly, I plan on making a contribution to you. Even though I've read and followed all of the help in the forums, I still cannot get MSVC to announce incoming calls, either on the bluetooth or the phone itself.

SMOOCHIRS!

Please note that I am having issues with Calligrapher 8.6 on my At&T Tilt. The problem is that once I enable TouchFlo, my phone no longer recognizes anything I write. And yes, I did do a soft reset after installation by pressing the reset button with my stylus.

Also, immediately after I install Calligrapher 8.6 and attempt to register, even though numbers show in the popup keyboard, random letters appear in the registration area. I have attached pictures to illustrate some of the issues. Obviously, I cannot demonstrate my inability to do handwriting.

Lastly, I’ve included a screenshot that shows all of the programs and the ROM installed on my phone.

Please respond with a fix for this bug.

Dear customer,

Thank you for contacting PhatWare support. We have reviewed your support request.

Yes, you will have to disable the Touch Flo Roller to use Calligrapher. This is not a bug.

Please ensure that one of our product names appears in the subject line of your emails, or it will most likely be deleted as spam. It is only on accident that I even found this email at all, because the subject of the original email was blank.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to email us.

Calligrapher 8.6

I was able to upload screenshots of the bug, and of some handwriting. As you can see, when I tried to enter the registration information, the "8" that I entered was recognized as a "G"! WTF!!!!! To get the keyboard to recognize correct characters, I had to disable Calligrapher, soft reset, enable Calligrapher, disable Calligrapher, then enable it again.:confused: This, I had to do even before TouchFlo was enabled. Therefore, this is obviously a bug that has NOTHING to do with the TouchFlo incompatibility Phatware spoke of.

Damsel in Distress

Wow guys!! Looks like this thread has been deserted!! Where is everyone?

I figured out that Calligrapher was having problems with Dutty's WM6 Rom, as well as with TouchFlo. Also, I kept having keyboard mapping issues with Dutty's WM6, even after running the keyboard fix cabs.

Sooooo, I flashed the XTRM-1.62-6.0 ROM, installed all the apps I needed, disabled TouchFlo, installed Calligrapher, and Voila!!! Calligrapher now works just fine.

For the record, even though I know noone's listening, I still would like to ask if someone might know why I can't get MSVC 1.6 to announce incoming calls. And Yes, I have replaced the files with the ones found earlier in this thread. Any help will be much appreciated.:D

By the way, I'm gonna test this ROM out for a coupla more days, and if it continues to be as stable as it is now, I will have found my ROM, and my Chef Du Jeur to contribute beer money to. (Only thing I can't figure out on this ROM is how come I can no longer change the tab order on the HTC Home Plug-in using HTC Home Organizer???:confused:)

Thanks Guys,

Unlock Screen Using Keyboard

Just thought I'd share this info on how to unlock the keys without using the screen, since I searched all over this and other sites, and couldn't find the answer.

1. Slide the keyboard open;

2. Press the center button of the D-pad

3. Press the "Fn" key

4. Press the * (T) key

I needed to do this because a friend had a faulty LCD and Digitizer and needs to send it back to AT&T. He never changed the ROM, so all I needed to do was install Sprite, do a backup and do a hard reset. I did this from the computer using Jeyo Mobile Companion 2.0 to see what was actually on the display, and was able to completely interface with the phone.

It worked wonderfully, and I was even able to navigate to the settings to do a clear storage.

Hope this helps someone!!!

I found a problem with Messaging and the new Tilt ROM

It seems that with the previous version of Kaiser Tweak there was some incompatibility with the new ROM.

I set Messaging to store attachments on the SD card.

I then setup the specific directories, with KT.

But then I discovered that this caused the SD CARD2 problem.

I had to do several HRs and reinstall everything.

So I disabled the SD card storage of attachments in Messaging, and did not do any changes via KT. This resolved the SD CARD2 problem.

I then understood that there was some apparent conflict between the Messaging and KT settings (although I don't yet know what these are). And so I re-enabled attachments storage on the SD card in Messaging, and changed nothing via KT.

This resolved the problem and I've been about a week without the SD CARD2 problem.

Now there's an updated version of KT, and it seens that the messaging tweak has been removed.

So I might install the updated XML thsi weekend and check whether the issue has been resolved.

SD Card Problem

I don't think doing a hard reset on your Tilt will help bring back your MicroSD. It may however help address the root cause (but you didn't share what happened immediately before you SD was corrupted)

I make a practise of backing up my microSD card to my PC from time to time. (Usually when I have made some changes.) I also do a backup of the Tilt to the microSD card before backing it up to the PC. That I can recover both the microSD and the Tilt from the one backup.

While there are some utilities that may help you recover your files, in the past, I have had limited results. I suggest getting a card reader and try to use a PC-based utility like Norton Disk Doctor or ONTrack EasyRecovery. But unless you have some really important files on your microSD, I would suggest that the effort might not be worth it.

Good luck,

Mark

I had the same thing happen with my storage card a couple weeks ago, that sucks. I ended up just flashing everything back, and restoring from my outlook. As for roms, dutty has several really good wm6.1 roms out, i prefer the one that's listed in my signiture cause everything i use works really well, thought it is not as fast as the one he just released, which you can download here. You'll notice that he released a version with teh palm sms program as one without. He should be releasing a new version of each very soon which will be even more stable. Anyway, that's my two cents, i've tried a lot of roms and keep coming back to whatever dutty's putting out.

Call History / Log Menu Options

Howdy! I'm a noob to say the least but have been tinkering and learning over the past few months with my tilt. I've been able to find every answer to every question by deach but I think I'm having a brain cramp tonight and need pointers if possible. I feel like a dumbass for even asking but I miss the feature emensely!

At some time in the not so distant past (but further than my back ups) I was able to have a "nice" call history log and it provided many options under the MENU section of a selected contact - very hand to add extra numbers to an existing contact. This is what I am truly after!! This log also provide more details about the call such as the time, the duration, date - maybe a photo but don't think so.. I think it was the default dailer in the ROM - CE OS 5.2.19199 (19199,dutty's) v6.1.

I know this is something super easy but really need a different perspective and guidence. I know I left out alot about my phone but here is a rundown of installed apps - Mainly from ATW's UC autoinstall from hard reset - if you do it often enough, it saves alot of time. The bad thing is alot of Dutty's cab files disappear after installation, even when I have it toggled otherwise..

While I'm asking...

1. I'm looking for the cab for the Opera Mini 4.2 (free one) with the little magnifying glass on bottom right. For some reason it fit my dispalys the best when resizing pages but I can't find it again.

2. Opera Mobile - and the 9.33 ~ 9.5 beta's. Any suggestions on getting them "really" unistalled AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, how I can remove the "dead link" from my Today Dropdown Menu? When I select it, it spits an error an auto marks it again. Now I'm wasting one of my (7) openings.

PS. I use the registered addition of SPB Shell - if it makes any difference..

Sorry for the ramble and thanks in advance for any time you can save this tired ol'man..
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] scotchua:
i think that dutty uses th dual touch dialer on that rom0 so just search for that and install it.

for opera mini, just check the link in my signature, it in the cabs section you can download opera mini. or go to mini.opera.com and download it there. finally regarding the opera mobile, there is a thread related to to that problem. i suggest you check it. i would give you the link but i'm writing this from my phone. hope that helps.
