I think the way to go is always to taylor the device to exactly the way you like it. You a person likes snapvue, he should use it. ROM is all about tailoring the device and settings to the way we like it. There are many ways to achieve this aim. Must important is we like the result.

For me, my device is being tailored every day. I experiment with new stuff everyday and find this to be a great fun in its own right. I tailor with free as well as commercial software, so I prefer an 'application-less' ROM. Don't like things to 'dirty' the set up even if they are installed into extended ROM which are otherwise unused.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
hmm lets see build 18533 which no stock rom has, like people said fingertouch, and then theres my visual tweaks and my speed tweaks. and u dont loose warrenty. u flash back to the latest rom ur carrier has and thats it. they dont care about spl, ipl. also i believe u can overwrite those via sspl. theres many reasons why besides those. u can install most things but itll waste space. u dont have any carrier branding or microsoft spyware(sqm) in my roms. cooked roms are always superior to stock roms.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] LTxda:
Not to mention certain tweaks and enhancements and it runs much better than any stock ROM available. ;-)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
Agree the build is different, although your OPERA seems to be of earlier built than that in stock ROM. On my device is also the latest wktask which is not on PK ROM. I can upgrade any application's version without hard reset, whereas if it is in extended ROM I would have to wait for new updated ROM (and go through reflashing, reinstalltion, etc which takes up lots of time)

Speed tweaks could be done with tools such as sktools. There is also the option of using overclocking utility.

I'm not sure we can say with certainty that warranty is intact with olipro name on it. I think it depends on your luck and how smart the service centre guy is. Also, I can visualise a scenario where due to hardware failure we are prevented from flashing back to the original ROM before sending in for repair.

I don't find storage space an issue with Athena. There is no reason to squeeze a few more out is extended ROM. Actually, the original ROM fully utilise the extended ROM space so there is no issue of wasted extended ROM space. I happen to like all the stock programs in there.

I'm not saying the original ROM is superior or inferior. It's very stable and fast too. It's just another choice, and it's not right to imply it as an unacceptable alternative.

overall, I'm inclined to think that you gain some, you lose some.

The real real concern I have with cooked ROM at this moment is still the presence is olipro brand in the bootloader screen. Until I'm able to get rid of that, I'd rather have peace of mind with my warranty.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
well i know opera is not the latest but it is the most stable version. any app that is in rom is eather latest or if it is not then its the most stable. ill see though about getting a more recent version that is more stable. wktask if u just run the latest cab itll overwrite the old files if i remember correctly and u have latest version. same with other apps. u just create cabs that install the newer items to locations of older ones. this also goes with ext rom stuff. itll overwrite it. speed tweaks yes can be done with other tools but the tools dont have all the tweaks/optimizations the cooks have and even if u do cooking in apps give those apps more stability/performance than cabs. this was proven back in the times of wm6 beta. overclocking is not needed on a device as fast as the athena.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
lol i can't help but laugh at ur sig.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] apd:
The answer to that is simple - before it goes in for service, flash the official WM6 ROM - all signs of Olipro disappear from the opening screens.

Having tested Dual since it came out and TMobWM6 for a couple of days, Dual is definitely better. It is faster, looks much better, uses much less memory. It is just as stable as the official ROM (as long as you don't use Snapvue). The only trouble with it as far as I'm concerned is that I am too busy at work at the moment to reflash it!!!

eaglesteve is right, though - it's all about personal choice. I'm just glad Pawel and the crew have given is the choice....
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
You're sure that by reflashing back the original ROM the olipro signature will be removed from the bootloader screen?

Pawel and Olipro can you confirm this? I hope the answer is yes.

If it's true, I'll try out the cooked ROM too. I like new clothes every now and then . :-)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] apd:
I can't reboot yet but will do so later. I'm pretty sure there is no ref to Oli's great work after flashing the TMob ROM. Will check.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] leoni1980:
it still says olipro spl on bootloader. doubt anyone would pick up on that though. I would avoid using this rom unless you absolutely have to though as it's the worst I've ever used. i'd love to flash back to touch dual but forgot my bloody usb cable.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Dwaalspoor98:
RFC

I'm using the touch dual ROM for some time now. I really like the ROM except a few things:

Soft Key Application

vxUtil

wkTask

RegEdit

Task Manager

Totalcm

Wm5torage

The battery meter thing

etc.

I prefer to use my own chosen applications for this.

In other words is there a possibility that third party applications like those above will be added to the extended ROM, so people can choose if they want to install them.

Thanks foot the hard work, and the really fast and stable ROM!!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
hehe now u can really appreciate the hard work put into my roms as u have used something else and hated it.

to the reply about asking to put in other apps into extended rom the extended rom is already used by cab installers for apps in the rom. also u mention that u have alternatives to those programs but u can also disable the ones that come in rom and delete the shortcuts to the apps and they'll be no noticable traces of those apps and install your own. like i said millions of times before(i guess thats still not enough) i have put in apps the group and you guys told us you use most because if i make a vanilla itll use the same space as the one with the apps because the phone is partioned so no matter how small the os.nb is itll take the same amound of space.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
im pretty sure the nbh ltxda flashed last night overwrote olipro's bootloader because he was saying something about that. u'd have to check with him though. also i believe olipro has made a sspl for athena so in case u need to do a warrenty send in on device we can put a stock bootloader on it and it wont void warrenty. also if ur device is screwed up to the point where u cant get into bootloader to change it u dont have to worry as they even are not able to check what ur bootloader was :p
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
Itxda,

Could you elaborate what this nbh thingy is able to do with regards to olipro's signature?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
trying to get ahold of him via im but he must be working. ill have him reply/atleast tell me and will try to find oli to find out if you can overwrite his spl.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] eaglesteve:
What application are you using in place of wktask and wm5torage? Something even better? Very curious to know.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] shortyboy:
ive got veoh.gopckt.com and ytpocket.com working with TCPMP .72RC1.

what u need to do is copy the plugins from the tcpmp folder in the programs directory and paste them in the windows directory because TCPMP is bundled with the OS.after you get that done soft reset and ur done.you can either stream videos to TCPMP using the websites mentioned or download them to ur pc and transfer them into athena.either way works fine.

ps. for those having problems with TCPMP going into portrait in full screen instead of landscape goto options>orientation>and check right-handed.hope this helps
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Pawel062:
good question. i use vueflo though in pie bc thats a bit smoother. how is it after it has been loaded? what are you on.. edge or hsdpa? on my ie its actually smooth BUT i am running a different rom than you are. the best way to resolve this is to wait for it to load fully and make sure you arent running anything in the background and knowing that in the future it will be much more smooth.

First of all, thanks guys for all your hard work - this ROM looks amezin, and I can see the tweaks done from the beta released.

I've found a few 'features' (as Microsoft might word them) which are causing me headaches - no big keyboard, no Opera Browser, a few shortcuts and links that don't work properly e.t.c., but all in all a good release. Maybe its time for me to start cooking up my own custom rom based on this release, all the benefits of your release, with all my settings e.t.c. But then, I'll never quite be on the bleeding edge like you guys! Once again, thanks for all your time and effots for making the Athemopod such a great platform.

It works.

Except after I uninstalled it (I don't like this home plug), it leaves me some problem which I'm still struggling to resolve. One of such problem is that it changes my date/time icon on the today taskbar into a power icon.

I've checked and noted that HKLM\Services\Power\ShowIcon:dword=0. Other than the today screen, all other screens are correctly showing date and time. It's only on today screen that I have the useless power/battery icon.

Anyone knows how I can bring back my date and time and get rid of the battery/power icon from today taskbar?

Edit:

Never mind, I solved the problem. The above registry entry somehow does not work. This entry works:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock = 1 (DWORD)

The HTC Home applications changes the value to 0, may be because it already has a big clock so there is no point duplicating the info. But I wish the uninstallation puts it back. It did'nt and left me high and dry without my precious date and time on the today screen.

Anyway, the problem is solved. Hope this helps someone.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Digital.Diablo:
I tried that a couple of times, (and a reflash) but no joy - It worked on the beta, but not this release for some reason. The files are there, they just don't initialize on first run. Hohum.

Don't worry, its not for public consumption - I've got a few 'payed for' apps that I don't want in the Public Domain, plus some custom reg keys and settings e.t.c. that I have to put in each time.

But once again, thanks for all the time and effort, I'll be issuing a money transfer in a few months once I can actually afford to eat again.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo ROM Development] Digital.Diablo:
Your stock version downloaded straight off the server, with apps then installed on top, which makes it a bit strange. The only thing I've not done is reformatted the microdrive, so maybe its something with that? I had to hard reset this evening (borked a reg entry which prevented it getting to the today screen) and noticed the app installer ran (I saw the keyboard thing come up, as well as some other apps), then rebooted and checked, and nowt there, which is odd...

Thats it!! all fixed. Basically most carriers have not set up their GSM servers to communicate the correct time zone as most PDAs don't have this function yet so no one has compalined!
