[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] dharvey4651:
Ok this is a new project that I have been working on for a little bit now. It is my Black Vista project.

***************************************************************************************************************************
​

This ROM requires that you have a 3.35+ radio version. If you don't know how to obtain this, please visit this thread.

***************************************************************************************************************************
​

It is based on the 3.02 ROM.(build 19588 ) This is release V2.6

It has an almost complete Windows Vista look. The appearance is black instead of the usual blue that everyone is used to.

***************************************************************************************************************************

***************************************************************************************************************************
​

Known Issues:

Cube may not work after initial flash.

- FIX: Soft reset. If soft-reset does not fix the cube then hard-reset.
