[Touch GSM ROM Development] akkad:
guyssssss, i need a support where i asked this so many times with no support, i liked this rom and am using it, but i still prefer the old style dialer which has a contact button where i dont like to use that "show/hide" button to see all the contacts and the last dialed numbers mixed together, so i need the original htc touch dialer which has the contact button, no one have this dialer cab ????
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
well, if this method is not working for u, it surely means u are missing something. the only conditions are:

1. SD card should be formatted with FAT32, better use windows pc to format

2. there should nothing in the card before flashing except for the nbh

3. the name of nbh should be ELF0IMG.nbh

4. it should be at the root of SD card, not inside a folder.

5. before entering bootloader, the SD card should be inserted.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] tiftof:
I'm having the same problem: formatted my card with pocketmechanic to fat32, copied the nbh via wm5storage to my sd card and renamed it. Then I go into the bootloader and nothing happens. I did notice a message ending with three exclamation marks flashing on the screen after it says 'waiting for sd card'. But it disappears to fast, I can't read it.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
try to copy paste the name from the wiki, dont write manually.

i'm still outside, i will help after i get home
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
i'm still outside, for all the ppl who want normal flash, use v2.1 R2, it will give same result , the only different is 3.3mb free at storage memory

well chef help me post this in faqs.:D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
i don't think it is really going to help. people will keep asking the same thing again and again. it is better we don't release 2 versions to avoid so much of un-necessary headache for both of us.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Jura_ZG:
I disagree. If people can't read its their problem.

I think the majority really, and I mean REALLY apreciates your contribution.

I've flashed almost every rom there is for elf and until i've came accros your rom's all of them felt the same. Your's are by far the fastest ones and it really "ressurected" our elf's.

Just flashed v2.1 rc2 sd and it all went fine right from the start.

Everything is explained in the wiki, and blasev is more than helpfull for those who for some reason can't read.

Once again thanks and i urge you to continue your work.

Cheers.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] absorber786:
i must agree with Jura_ZG, people should read first..and generally they dont have to read the whole thread..just the last few pages..and use the search function..

Your contribution is well appreciated
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Techie87:
yup :) i just follewed the instructions in the wiki and everything went smooth :) maybe some people here are trying to flash the rom on a locked htc?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Spookstah:
Will the calculator also be updated to a black version (i assumed it already whas, due to the release notes) ?

When i try to "update" the calculator skin with a black diamond skin, it gives an error, about uninstalling the skin it has atm before it can install a new skin, any ideas how to solve this?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
thanks guys for the support :). most of the time i find myself in the middle of some questions which have been asked and answered numerous times and that really pi**es me off. i try to be helpful all the time, but just can't help it sometimes.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
so guys I will not always answer anymore, for an already asked question. i hope u guys understand that both of us are doing this for free, and we have our own "real life" work to do.

cheers :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] tiftof:
good news (for me at least :p)

I little update on my situation:

so, I wasn't able to flash the new rom from my sd card, nothing happened, just some message quickly flashing which disappeared to fast for me to be able to read it. I messed around a bit more and formatted my card a few times using "flash format" and "pocket mechanic", until... I broke my card :p My htc touch wouldn't recognize it anymore. I ran out to buy a new one which had an sd adapter included. I tried to see if I could still format my original 1gig sd card which I just broke, under win xp. It formatted! Then I just copied the image to the sd card and I copy/paste the filename from the wiki as blasev suggested. It worked! Flashing only took a minute or so...

Conclusion: I fixed my problem by either of the two following reasons:

-formatting the card in win xp instead of some utility on my htc touch

-copy/pasting the filename (but the filenamen is just ELF0IMG.nbh with the 0 being the 'zero' character, so I don't see how I could have gotten it wrong)

blasev and htctouchp: thanks for the rom and help. Sorry if I was one of those guys looking for help again, but I actually did read a lot before posting my question. And please don't feel obliged to answer every question posted in this thread. It does help to let this rom gain in popularity, but some questions can be answered by other users sometimes = spreading the effort :)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] AllBrain:
MOD EDIT

: LET THIS BE A WARNING FOR POSTING IN ANGER. THE DEVELOPERS OF ROM HAVE PROVIDED 2 OPTIONS OF FLASHING. PLEASE READ AND USE WHAT WORKS WELL

STILL IF ANY ISSUES, THEN SUGGEST PM EITHER OF THEM
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
cool down pls. i think most of the guys who have problem flashing from SD card is because they are using some utility on the phone itself to format. so i advice to use the standard windows PC (XP, Vista, Win 2K etc) to format as FAT32. this type of problem is mainly related to SD card only and we (me or blasev) won't be able to help.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Rene-357:
hi, i know that you got tired of some questions, and i read all your post about flashing from sd card and is very simple. but i got 4gb sd whit tom tom 7, all the maps of usa and a lot of things. if i format the card, i will have to pass all that (tomtom,activation prosses,maps,activate the maps,) so the thing is that i am very gratefull to you and blasev, and i know this is a great contribution and its for free and i appreciated. so you guys have my respects and thanks a billion i will try not to bother to much.

sorry for my english :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] ckpv5:
This is just my personal experience which I like to share. I sometimes flashed TESS Roms and I find that all their released Roms are good. But being a person who like a ROM that is as clean as possible I always go for UCE roms, and now UCE-C.

What I want to share is, I do not have to re-format my 4GB SDHC card as it is already FAT32, and I do not have to re-format to make it empty, what I did was transfer the ELF0IMG.NBH to the SD card to the root, let whatever files already there be there.... I flashed succesfully.

So guys, who is not willing to re-format and losing all files in the SD card, give it a try (But it is best to back-up all files in the SD to your PC incase something goes wrong).

Most important thing here is the device (ELF/ELFIN) must be CID unlocked with updated IPL/SPL.

Rgds
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Rene-357:
hi again, i flash the new rom and like i said its very simple and more faster than the "normal" way, i realy like the extra mb because i use a lot of apps. thank you guys and great work. the good gets betters. now to work whit tomtom:cool:
[Touch GSM ROM Development] little pink:
Thanks chef ! :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Jura_ZG:
I don't belive you! ;)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Jura_ZG:
Exactly. I wanted to suggest the same thing.

Since pda is already having access to the card, it is obviously already FAT32 file sistem enabled(formated).

Just flash latest uspl and that's all.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] kkkng:
I tried to flash my old 1G SD card and it just goes to "searching for SD card" quickly and go to the bootloader screen. Then I tried to flash with my 4GB SDHC (class 6) .. it works!!. Took less than a minute to flash... I didn't delete any of the content in my 4gb sd card.

so it seems like you do have to flash it with a faster SD card? (i think i have read it somewhere).

Thanks for this great ROM!
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Jura_ZG:
No you don't.

Any sd card is fine as long as you follow the procedure.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
:eek: i see...

you're suspecting that I'm addicted to xda-developers? I tell u the truth => YES I AM, lol :D

and for other new comer who want to use sd card flash method, it has been confirmed that u can flash without emptying the whole card. BUT u must make sure that the card it self are FAT32. Not all card are "fat32", my card originally came with "fat". and please don't forget to cid unlock first :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Chaosman2002:
Hey guys,

I really really love your rom, it's very fast and stable. But I miss one thing, UC 2.0 support. I know you don't like UC, but it is much more easier to install all my software after a Romupdate. I added UC 2.0 to your Rom 1.9d, and it was more then easy. But your new Rom is faster then the old one.

Word default file type | HTC Home problem

Hello, on all the other roms I've tried I can select the standard .doc file extension as the default for new files. This is MUCH quicker. Unfortunately this option isn't there in this rom. Is it just a template file? There is normally a similar option in Excel as well.

In HTC Home, if I select and move the Profiles tab then it fails to load and I have to hard-reset to get it workign again. I found it handy to use to select the vibrate option easily. Can this be fixed?

Thanks for a great looking rom.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
yes, those are just templates which i removed from the ROM. u can copy those templates in the ROM manually if u want those.

i didn't get u :confused:
[Touch GSM ROM Development] littld:
1. Where can I get those templates from? Do I need to load a different rom, save them somewhere and then reinstall this rom and copy them back?

2. Sorry I wasn't clearer about HTC Home. In the Today Settings there is a tab for HTC Home that lets you pick and reorder the tabs on the HTC Home screen. One of the tabs is called "Profile" and you can select sound profiles from a list of icons. I have found it useful to quickly be able to set the device to vibrate only by enabling this tab. Using this rom, however, when I enbable it, HTC Home stops working. I then can't start the Today settings applet and I have to soft-reset to get back the Today applet. Unfortunately, I have to hard-reset to get HTC Home working again. I hope that makes sense.

Thanks
[Touch GSM ROM Development] !Aman!:
i've attched those here. unzip and copy to ur Templates folder. that should be enough.

its working for me over here.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
i was htc home fans, i use "profile" everyday, never got any problem, maybe one of your modification or 3rd party soft. :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] littld:
This is straight after a hard reset not installing anything. Just going to try with no SD card in to see if that's doing something automatically.

<Update> yes, it was TomTom Navigator - hangs during install of the cab. The install starts automatically (autorun). If I remove the SD card then HTC Home isn't affected. I need to find an answer though since I need TTN working.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
yup, thats what i mean, even though its a fresh upgrade, you still have many reason to have some "alien" bug for us. because everyone have different sd card/mmc, different setting, and so on.

cheers :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] littld:
This is strange - TTN.cab installs fine on the UC rom and PDAviet. Is there something different with this causing it to hang? Has anyone else managed to get TTN working? Thanks.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thebomber:
ok the rom working fine with me now cause i didnot lock the device, so i hope you find a solution fot that

also i am trying to install the new rom on my elfin and doesnt work i formated fat32 and evrything but no i get a blue message searching for sd card follwed by the tri colour screen

Problems with WIFI

I'm trying to connect to a WIFI but I can't. It starts searching networks but then suddenly desconnects (and the WIFI it's 'Off' so I need to turn it on once again, but it's the same story everytime).

Besides that, I've got problems with my GPRS connection, but first I want to check passwords and that stuff before repoting it as a bug.

Help, please...

Now it's working the WIFI, will check the GPRS during next hours...

i tried but never worked htctouchp can you try and tell me the result

I agree with sexy-32, its the best Rom I have tried. Congratulations for both of you. Btw everything is working perfect in 2.1 R2. Bye.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
thx for your appreciation :D hope u enjoyed it
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Jura_ZG:
OK, everything works perfectly just one observation.

I've noticed a little increased mem leak in this new bulid(compared to v.1.6).

In v1.6 my mem hovered around 56%(aprox 22-23 mb).

With this new build its allways arround 60% (20 mb).

Anybody noticed that too?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] blasev:
yes bro, we have notice that :D

but somehow that 2mb different make this rom faster and more stable.

cheers :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] absorber786:
However, although this is the case, this rom still has almost the most free ram available (and this includes some of my extras that are running) and is more stable...so the 2 mb is worth it all the way. :D
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Jura_ZG:
OK, nice to know that i wasn't just me ;)

Do you know which verzion has the smallest mem leak?

Cheers.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] undSonstso:
Hello forum,

and thank you very much for this great ROM.

Just one thing:

Can someone please help me with my Navigon MobileNavigator 6.

I used the previous version of Touch ESSential and it worked fine together.

With v2.1 R2 Compact Edition i can't load the program. It stucks at the main menu and than it says something like "Storage Card has been removed. The application now shutsdown automatically".

I've tried every way to install navigon and formatted the SD-Card serveral times. I have also changed the NaviLib.ini. Nothing helps.

Is somebody facing the same problems with Navigon MobileNavigator 6 and Touch ESSential V2.1 R2 Compact Edition ?

Thank you and greetings from germany !

I don't think blasev was rude, quite the opposite.

Why would htctouchp and blasev incorporate 2d manilla when first of all there is a workin cab avaliable and second it uses a lot of memor which is a downer for elf users(including blasev himsef).
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mr_ding:
I agree with blasev as well, even though I like the Manilla ROM. I will not want Manilla to be part of the ROM either. I like to keep the basic ROM as simple as possible.

What if there's another similar cab file (even fancier) released, then we need to get blasev to cook remove this one and cook another ROM? That's just unreasonable.

It's not too hard to click on .cab to install, is it?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] Rene-357:
manilla its great and all that, but the consept of essential its about the ultra clean that is the rom, so i don't think that have to be included. anyway there's a cab for that.

Hard-reset

hi guys,

Wonderful work!

How to hard-reset with this rom. I have installed some programs, which make this rom to work very unstable, so I was looking in System for a button or something to hard-reset, but i could not find any. Does anyone have seen any hard-reset button anywhere???:)

just hold the green and red buttons and with your stylus, press the reset button next to the usb dock.

keep holding the red and green buttons 'till you see the message on the screen

you can make a rom without htc home and one with it and users can place what they want

what do you think

i dont think i've so much of spare time... satisfying some people with one version itself is a big job, imagine how hard would it be to look after 2 versions!!! sorry!

PS: 10 MB of storage and 4-5 MB of RAM is not something u can forget about while making a Lite ROM.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] thebomber:
well like you did in the prevoius relases you made the light rom and people asked if this is suitable or not

and one more thing you can just ask after people who tried touchflo and ask them for the experince they had

elf users complained for lack of memory so thats why i was asking if you would make your rom cleaner and remove htc home and it can be installed by a cab file

the same has gone for htc cube which can be installed manually

anywayz i am waiting for v2.2 and i am not complaing about anything but i just dont want the htchome sitting there taking the storage and not being used, and if you got any way users can remove it that will be great of ya

good luck
