[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Confused Stu:
FAQ and other details

Please ensure you use a WM6.1 compatible Radio with this ROM I use 1.64.08.21 which works fine for T-Mobile UK. Could everyone else please post which Radio ROM and Network they find works so we can build up a list of what works andwhat doesn't?

Version 1.1 was published at post 82. Anything before that is v1, anything after is v1.1 unless the post says otherwise

New to this?

There's no shame in being new! Welcome. To flash a ROM:

- Make sure you have Hard SPL installed first. If you haven't DO IT NOW, really or else your phone may well break.

- Download the ROM (links in post 1)

- Attach phone to PC via cable and make sure Activesync fires up and connects

- Unpack your ROM download, and run the RUU program

- Follow the on-screen prompts

- Wait nervously

- When it's finished flashing, the phone will take a while starting up - this is normal

- When you get to the Align Screen bit, Hard Reset the phone (important)

- Now follow the start-up screens until the phone reboots

- If you haven't already, make sure you've got a WM6.1 compatible Radio installed. If you don't, you'll experience problems with sound (not just in a call), the camera and your legs will probably drop off too!

- When you've got the ROM installed and the right radio installed, you're off and running!

Issues

1 ) - (Thanks to Ionutz6 for another great spot)

Even though I've updated to the newest version, Today Agenda still appears to crash if you access the options through Start > Today > Items > Today Agenda > Options. As a work around, please tap and hold on Today Agenda on the Today screen, and select Options from the context menu. Does anyone have a suggestion for a Today plug-in calendar that does everything Today Agenda does but doesn't crash?

2) - One or two people have found the phone is in Flight Mode immediately after you flash. If your signal strength stays with the cross, check the Comm Manager to turn Flight Mode off.

3) - (Thanks to cgjones for this spot)

Video calling doesn't work. The button shows in the dialer, but pressing the button just initiates a voice call rather than a video one. :(

FAQ

Why doesn't this include HTC Home or the Cube?

HTC Home is out because it takes up half the Today screen, and FTouchflo interferes with Transcriber, so the Cube went out in favour of handwriting recognition. Everything in this ROM is there because I use it, or like it, or think it's cool boasting material down the pub! If you think something else deserves to be in, suggest it - I can always make another version with it in if I want!

Why do you duplicate your links in Start Menu into the Programs folders too?

I like it that way! I've got the most used ones (for me) directly under Start, then everything inside Programs. To me, that's just the way it should work - like on your PC, pinning something to the Start menu doesn't remove it from the All Programs list.

Other ROMs have more free memory!

That's because there's quite a bit built into this ROM, and because there's probably lots of files i could safely remove to slim it down. Unfortunately I don't know what 95% of the files under Windows do, so I can't tell which ones can be removed and which can't. If you notice one that can be removed, please mention it here and I'll clean it out for version 2.

I think your ROMs rubbish!

Fair enough, I like it and that was the only reason I built it. May I suggest trying Dutty's or Slueth's as a mainstream alternative (although every ROM on here is great these days). Alternatively, grab yourself a kitchen and make your own ROM - it's great fun!
