That is okay illi, I have a Faraday and have no Wi-Fi.
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Yes, I was working with Blackdragon on releasing a bare-bone vanilla version which is my personal preference. Since we got "stuck" with the wifi issue and our distance and timezone differences, I have taken a back seat. If, and its a BIG IF, anyone of you guys want a bare-bone, vanilla version, please inspire me to try my hands on cooking again. Otherwise, you can always wait for Phil's. To the uninitiated, ROM cooking is not easy, thats why they "are a bit slow". So please dont push them. Its really hard work and for me it is mental torture.

I am now back to Gnats rom and except for the few known quirks, am enjoying it. No complains!:D

Take care.
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Please read my post #478.

Thanks
[HTC Tornado] smartamazing:
Well said illi its not that easy its really a mental torture will just have to take it lightly so that we won't have mind stress...all we have to to do maybe is to be patient because sooner or later we will have the answers to all those questions to develop better the rom...By the way is the bluetooth and wifi issue are already resolved in this rom?

Next WM6.1 release

So if I understood everything correct GnatGoSplat's next version stuck on ActiveSync issues. Thats why - with help from the friends here - there will be a joint effort to produce a PING perfect ROM.

Well, great folks! Thanks a lot for your hard work. And @illy pls don't go insane because of a piece of software. As I'm in a completely different sw development business I understand what you mean. ;)

And there is one thing I'd like to have: looking youtube videos via WiFi WPA-PSK connection on the WMP on fullscreen. I found no 6 or 6.1 ROM for my Tornado where that works. Maybe it could be a good test case.

Again, thanks to all contributors! :D
[HTC Tornado] markanthonypr:
Does it need to be on WMP ? Have you tried www.ytpocket.com ? It works with

TCPMP Player and works great!!

EDIT: Oh and TCPMP has an EXIT button lol Geez I hate all these programs w/o Exit option.
[HTC Tornado] flame99:
Thanks, i'll try that one! :)
[HTC Tornado] :
And now for something positiv: I like this ROM !!! :):)

It fullfills all my needs, it runs fast and stable. If there are bugs they may be in functions I don't use ;):)

Here are some screenshots (running a Qtek 3810) :
[HTC Tornado] mkloeckner:
I'm having a problem with the 0.4b version. I can't install any Java application. It says not enough availible storage to do so. But there's about 12MB free space.

Any fix for this?

This happend after Gnat changed to Esmertec JBed. It worked like a charm before.
[HTC Tornado] GnatGoSplat:
Try reinstalling Java from a CAB, that should work.

The next version will have a working Java. I hope to get to it when I get my laptop fixed (it was the only XP machine I have).
[HTC Tornado] smartamazing:
Hi Gnat your back....I've tried this rom its great fast and almost perfect...But I have few suggestions

1. Can you remove the threaded sms or put an option to turn it off for those people who don't like it or improve it because I notice some bugs it has a bugs option number 5 is blank and it saves the message that I type

2. I think SMS sent notification is needed

3. I hope you can add another homescreen aside from the default green add some more....

4. In the sliding Panel Inbox should come first before call history..

5. Also the date style can be change already in the next update because even if you change it in the regional setting it doesn't change the date style...

6. Backlight won't turn off when you play Windows Media Player....

7. Just a suggestion remove the Java application let us do the adding since this is a clean rom....

8. I notice that the contacts are not properly arranged some sim contacts are scattered from the outlook contacts in the phone memory...It should be contacts at the phone memory followed by sim contacts I'm referring to the arrangement....

9. I think HTC Task manager like of that HTC Vanilla by ericjm because it shows complete details is better than the one installed in this rom...

....I'll add some more of my observations as I go on with this rom...
[HTC Tornado] kancrutt:
im just create new folder "Appdb" in Windows directory & copy "_...png″ to folder "Appdb" it works :D
[HTC Tornado] mkloeckner:
Thanks a lot! This worked. You just need to create the "Appdb" folder in your windows directory.
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Good to know you are around:D

Probably the next release you should put it the kitchen so we can choose our own apps to be installed.

Have a good day

silent profile short key?

My phone mysteriously ends up on silent mode every couple of weeks. It seems to happen when I accidentally put it in my pocket without locking it first. Is there a short or long keypress for silent mode?
[HTC Tornado] Gomer Pyle:
long # key put the phone on the silent mode...
[HTC Tornado] democron:
lol, I had the same problem :) I don't like I can put phone into silent mode while I'm writing sms message, I wish it can be changed and symbols put back to the # key
[HTC Tornado] gsm1:
How'd you get the application tab setup?
[HTC Tornado] shandar:
Sorry if this has been asked before, but has anything been done to fix the camera software? On my C600 the camera is useless since it automatically decreases the brightness until it just takes a black picture, even in bright sunlight :( Or is there some alternative camera app to use?
[HTC Tornado] markanthonypr:
MENU---> RESET BRIGHTNESS
[HTC Tornado] shandar:
Oh. That wasn't too difficult lol. Thanks :)
[HTC Tornado] djsleepwalker:
How'd you get everything else, too? Did you throw in some add-ons? Cuz I have the same ROM and I don't have nearly all the tabs or icons you have. See what mine looks like:
[HTC Tornado] thecraze:
Go to settings>Home screen>Home screen layout>Sliding panel media to get all the buttons you see on other's homescreens.
[HTC Tornado] gsm1:
I've already played with that and I still don't get the tab that allows you to launch applications from the home screen.

[HTC Tornado] Lost Heaven:
After a long time without flashing my phone, I decided to try this WM 6.1.

Nice improvement over the last version. Congratulations for the great release and thanks for the support!

Keep it up, looking forward to the eagerly anticipated PING :D
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Unfortunately the "I" in PING have given up:confused:

So, just wait for PNG's release.:cool:
[HTC Tornado] Lost Heaven:
Oh, that's a pity... it would certainly be an excellent release with the contribute of all, but I'm sure we will see something good anyway.

After some hours of testing and tweaking, I got everything running perfectly, excepting one little thing that has been noticed before:

-a long press on "#" will put the phone on silent mode.

Is there any way this feature could be disabled? I really, really miss accessing the Symbols menu with it when writing something...

Asides from that, I'm enjoying this release!

Sometimes I'm amazed on how a cellphone this old can still be "going strong" as illi says in his sig xD not many technological devices can brag about a lifespam this long.
[HTC Tornado] Dezamundano:
Pad driver

Very nice ROM. For me the best of which I have tried (I am not accustomed to professional and the last Nitrogenius is too slow). Thank you for your work.

It would be possible to include in the next version of the driver pad that uses WM6.1 Professional rom? Actually, the only thing that I miss of such rom is the agility with which moved the pad. In yours, go back to no good.

Thank you very much.
[HTC Tornado] :
The icon bar on top is called "Rinku Iconbar". Search this forum for it, I found a link somewhere in this forum. Or google it, you can't miss it.

The rest is done in the registry (I am using Smartion registry editor).

The keys to look for are:

HKLM-Security-CHome and HKLM-SOFTWARE-Microsoft-CHome

That's where the definition of the homescreen content is. That is the text you see, the icons you see, the applications you throw in and so on. Modifications you bring in here have to fit the homescreen layout. That is how everything looks (bold text, text aligned right or left, plugin order, ...). It's defined in the Sliding Panel_Media NRG.home.xml (if you use rinku iconbar ...) and in the CHome_240x320.cpr.

The "Application" tab you see on my screenshots is just a modified Getting Started tab (or was it "Welcome Center"?). I renamed it to "Applications" and modified the content (-> registry). I downloaded some icons (64x64, png) and made some myself, copied them somewhere on my mobile and referenced them in the registry.

So if you know what to do you can build your own homescreen. But you should really be experienced in modifying the registry. I wouldn't recommend to do such things if you don't know what you do, or you will end up flashing your device once again.

I have no cab for this, individual design can't be capped. I can provide an example of some registry keys, it's google maps, which I have installed.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings\CWelcomeCenter\Page5]

"ACTIONURL"="\Program Files\GoogleMaps\GoogleMaps.exe"

"PICTURES"="\Application Data\Home\GoogleMaps.png"

"SK2TEXT"="Taskmanager"

"SK2URL"=":MSTASKMGR"

"TEXT1"="Google Maps"

"TEXT2"="for Mobiles"

"TITLETEXT"="Applications"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CHome\CWelcomeCenter\Page5]

"ACTIONURL"="\Program Files\GoogleMaps\GoogleMaps.exe"

"GUID"="{2F710F22-9F19-43fa-8F35-9927D246B078}"

"PICTURES"="\Application Data\Home\GoogleMaps.png"

"SK2TEXT"="Taskmanager"

"SK2URL"=":MSTASKMGR"

"TEXT1"="Google Maps"

"TEXT2"="for Mobiles"

"TITLETEXT"="Applications"

I use a custom icon here (PICTURES), the rest is pretty self-explaining. The GUID i used is one of the default apps, I just used it and it works.

I recently bought a second Qtek 8310 on eBay. If I find a little more time I'm going to play around a little more :)

SMS not sending

Hi folks. I've just flashed to this rom, and it's lovely and shiny, but I don't seem to be able to send or receive text messages. I'm on Orange UK and I've got the right message centre phone number. I've undone the hack to disable the sent message notification and I get a popup saying sent. The message sits in sent items, but the message just doesn't get through. And I don't get messages, but I can still make and receive phone calls.

EDIT: And I've just found out I can send text messages, so it's just not receiving them. Have I forgotten to set something up?

I've formatted BINFS and flashed the new radio and SPL(?)

I've had a search through the forum but haven't found anything. Can anyone help?

Cheers

Matt
[HTC Tornado] kingbing:
Not to worry, a hard reset and a restore later and everything's working just fine.

And it's nice to know that my MMS backup is working properly too!

Cheers

[HTC Tornado] kkrull:
request for next build...system command unsafe

I didn't know a better place to put this but when you get an email or web page that has a phone number in it any you try to call the number you get a message warning you that a system command could be unsafe. Then you also get to confirm the number you are calling. Both of these seem un-necessary in the US. Can we at least get rid of the first?

I realize that there are foreign numbers that are toll numbers that look like US numbers, but since I don't know what they are and am not going to look them up when I need to call, it seems pointless.
[HTC Tornado] kancrutt:
any updates of this ROM?
[HTC Tornado] :
If there were updates, they would be pronounced here, don't you think?
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Pray for my vanilla to be ready soon:D
[HTC Tornado] smartamazing:
Did I read it right:)....Vanilla WM6.1 soon if that's true illi I can't wait for you to release it:rolleyes:
[HTC Tornado] illi:
YES! You read it right. I am excited to share my rom, as you are to flash it. Its installed on my phone for TWO days already without any glitches.

Basically I removed all third party software and the old home screen. It have only the Sliding Panel home screen. A bigger bronzeres file with additional icons and modified cpr file; so you get the slim homescreen panel. NO tweaks added.

I hope to release the alpha version tomorrow.

Thanks
[HTC Tornado] smartamazing:
Wow so its really true a "REAL WM6.1 CLEAN ROM" I can't wait till tomorrow illi for sure it would be the best WM6.1 Clean ROM....:)...By the way illi where you able to use the HTC Comm Color by Metanol?...How's the Bluetooth and Wifi issue fix already? and I hope that the color scheme at the homescreen are changeable not always green....
[HTC Tornado] illi:
I used the HTC Comm Manager that came with the base rom that I worked on. Bluetooth and wifi worked. The green is gone but a new green is introduced. In fact there are not optional color scheme - you will have to get one yourself. The "old" WM Homescreen is gone too. It's now the Sliding Panel. I am sure you will like it.
[HTC Tornado] Blackdragon_860:
What about Bugs?

The same as Gnagnosplats??
[HTC Tornado] smartamazing:
Nice work illi if that's the case you are really a great cooker because you see to it that everything works before you release it...By the way in the Sliding Panel at the CHOME did you put "INBOX"as the first menu icon?Because at GnatGoSplat WM6.1 ROM the inbox at the Sliding Panel at the CHOME is at the 5th option in the icon I think I had the hard time accessing it...So will that explode tomorrow?:)
[HTC Tornado] NiTroGenious:
Wow, Illi, I'm really proud of you and looking forward to test it. Welcome to the Cooking Business, my friend. That's one big step towards the "P.I.N.G. Edition"! ;)

good work illi, thanks :) Im looking forward to test it :D
[HTC Tornado] rekall:
any idea if the exchange server bug has been fixed with this release?
[HTC Tornado] illi:
Thanks guys for the support. Honestly I am still an amateur at this game. So there may still be unnecessary files left in this rom. But so far I have not encounter any bugs, yet!

I am ready and excited to release it but I want the blessings of my "see-foo" (in Chinese, meaning Master), the originator of this base ROM. It's my way of saying "Thank you!" and my show of respect to all ROM cookers.

Once I receive the blessings The ROM will be all yours.

Thanks

[HTC Tornado] DarylO:
Thanks, Gnat, for this great ROM. I'm liking it a lot better than WM6.0. I'm having the same problem with my power button as I had with Nitro's ROM, however. When I perform a long press on the Power button, it takes FOREVER for Windows Mobile to shut down. Is there anything that can be done to speed up this process?

Daryl
[HTC Tornado] markanthonypr:
PULL OUT THE BATTERY lol (No, Don't!) You will find that problem with all ROM's. Its like turning off light by light of your home or shutting down the power to the house ;) Install Celetask. Use Celetask Shutdown, its super fast. You will also find many usefull aplications in Celetask, like... Close and Terminate for programs you think you closed but are still running or processes u want to kill like tMail. You can search the tornado forum and will find it in most ROM's.
[HTC Tornado] ckleea:
Same experience here. Do find some soft reset program to help for the task.
[HTC Tornado] DarylO:
Thanks for the advice, but I already have CeleTask ... great program. I configured my Home button so that a long press would open it up. Now, if there were only a way to configure a long press of the power button to activate CeleTask's shutdown....

.net Framework Issue

I upgraded my T-Mobile SDA from WM 6.0 to this 6.1 upgrade. After resolving issues with T-Mobile Internet and Email access, everything was working fine until I installed Viirgo. At the conclusion of the install, the SDA complained about not having ".net Framework 2.0" available. An attempt to install ".net FW2.0" to my memory card failed and a subsequent attempt to upgrade to ".net FW 3.5" also failed (See Error logs below).

Currently I cannot "uninstall" ".net FW 2.0" and I cannot successfully install ".net FW 3.5".

Any guidance available to break thru this impass?? Thanks in advance.

New to this, some questions!

Hi all,

Thanks for all the hard work. I have a Cingular 2125 which was running WM5 until yesterday when I tried flashing for the first time, so much sexier now. Love this ROM but had a few questions, so I hope someone is still monitoring this thread:

1. Is there Chinese input language support? I used Kar Hoe's T9 Chinese (http://karhoe.net/content/view/21/1/), and while Chinese displays now, input doesn't show up. Then I tried a pack from Studio KUMA (http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=support) and now a huge blank menu pops up when I hold down the */T9 button. Chinese input worked when I was using the ROM by Ricky Wyatt (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=398957).

2. How do I remove T9 languages? I'd especially like to remove the xT9.

3. How do I change to Nina? I looked in Windows/Fonts and it doesn't seem to be there. Took a look on MS homepage and it seems like a nice display typeface.

Thanks in advance for any help.

[HTC Tornado] mgugi:
First, thanks for this ROM it's great. Everything is good so far, exept one thing. When somebody is calling me and I answer, I need to wait for about 4-5 seconds to be able to hear that one, who is calling. He can hear me right away when I answer. And also when I press dial to call someone I need to wait about 4 seconds to start dialing. Anyone knows hot to fix that? Beside that everything is great.

which wm6.1 ROM?

I am quite happy with the 6.0 ROM I am using; I have all the apps and stuff tweaked the way I want it. What are the advantages of 6.1 over 6.0? Is it faster?

What are the advantages of xt9?

Thanks.
[HTC Tornado] ruckstande:
Maybe this is a dumb question but here it goes. I upgraded this phone even though I don't have AT&T anymore. I now have an HTC Touch with Sprint. My question is, can this phone work with Sprint now that it is unlocked?

No, because Sprint uses CDMA whereas AT&T uses GSM. Therefore it is not possible since these are two different technologies.

Did Live Messenger work for you on other WM6 ROMs? I've been told that the reason it doesn't work for me is because my ISP uses PROXY??

Edit: If you still have problems with connections, go to SETTINGS...CONNECTIONS...MENU(soft right key)...
