Ugh I don't understand this. On a fresh flash, I load up TouchFLO and it's good, but I get "No Weather Data" or whatever when trying to update the weather. I set the city and save changes, then I install the weather fix. Now TouchFLO doesn't start. It tries to load and then says "Tap to Load". What have I done wrong?

When I uninstall it, TouchFLO comes back but still not weather on Today screen, although the weather tab works :S

Microsoft myphone

I was unable to remove/upgrade My Phone on the 1.0 rom today. It wasn't listed in the add/remove settings, and trying to install over the old install failed. Anyone have any ideas? This occurred while My Phone was running it's auto update feature. I then tried downloading from the site and installing and got the same result. The old version would not uninstall.

He posted that on Dec.3rd. Hasn't poked his head in here since. Lets hope he's been working hard on the new ROM and that he hasn't forgotten about us :)

Why is it so hard to reply to people who praise you and your work and pay you for it?

-Just seems rude to me.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] johnnytoronto:
Are you serious? The guy probably has a full-time job and a life/friends/hobbies outside of his cell phone hobby.

Give him a break man, jeez.

Perhaps he's looking at surprising people for Christmas or the New Year, have you thought of that?

Be happy for what you get.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] cbaty08:
I work Full time, go to school, have a family and a girl. Any man knows where there's a will there's a way.

I love his work, and have paid him for it and thanked him a thousand times.

And if he is too busy, just TELL US!!!

I could be wrong, but I see no benefit in keeping a release a secret so it can be a surprise for people....

I guess it is just hard for me when I have been a fan since V11 and am now seeing so many other people pumping out multiple builds since the last time NFS brought his out, leading me away from his work that I do love so much.

Look, everyone has a life outside of this. I get the image that you feel everyone that is on here doesn't have a life/family/hobbies etc.. Which I doubt is the truth.

NFS I love your work, just sucks knowing other builds are pumping out when all I have been looking forward to is yours.

PS- NFS you REALLY got my hopes (some of my friends too) up when you ONCE spoke up considering building with Android......

Hope JohnnyToronto is right with this secretiveness....

Looks like he has been working on other roms (Raphael) with updates in the past week - we may be left behind - another contributor...
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
guys...

relax .. first its the holiday season for those that recognize it, let him have some time for that OK

second, he goes to university full time, work, friends, attempt and perhaps successes in getting laid, drunk, whatever he wants to do

he is currently working on ROMs for multiple phone models so cut some slack to the guy if it takes a few days, weeks whatever, it will be released and done when it is

so ask yourself, is your phone working with the ROM you got from him so far? if so, then WTF are you chomping at the bit for a new ROM for then? personally my phone with his latest ROM is working great and doing everything I use it for so IF he comes out with another version great, if he doesnt sad but hey do I really expect to use this phone forever? no - do you? you shouldnt ...

I too have donated and I definatly got more than my monies worth out of the donation Ive given so anything new if and when it happens is bonus

This is this guys hobby, not a job, no one was required to donate not forced to so dont treat him as if he is your employee your paying on a weekly basis to jump through hoops and perform to YOUR expectations

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] mack1ho:
i have this rom on my phone and i like it alot i have just got done donating but the only promblem is when i put my contacts in then i cant go to the dialer or see my contacts at all or even answer my phone plz help dont want to pay for no reason plz respond fast plz..
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
huh?

you enter the contact so you can get into the dialer but then you cant get into the dialer after that or answer the phone?

Ive never ran into that one... have you added any skins or themes? have you added any software? done any modifications?

Have you tried reflashing, first guess its a bad flash, retry flashing and attempt to add your contacts again

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] cbaty08:
Detroit Doug,

I hear you 100%.

I just felt left out in the wind like many others are feeling it looks.

I am greatful for what I have.

I didn't come here to throw blows with anybody about how I am owed ANYTHING, except maybe a "Hey guys I don't have the time right now, happy holidays", which I just feel is the right thing to do...

I just feel you wouldn't leave your real friends hanging like this, why leave your internet friends then???
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Detroit_Doug:
Internet "friends" really? expect a long disappointing existence on the internet - this isnt a social club its a forum where developers develop and users use, feedback shared, but friends, really?

and its an futile wish to expect a notice when he is obviously busy to expect him to have the time to post when he is too busy to appear :)

Just be patient, if and when it is released then its released, no times given are ever set in stone, new ROMs leaked, new base files obtained, new engines/kitchens and thus problems with said kitchens occur.

Detroit Doug
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] blackrook:
I agree. I'll wait patiently.

I found myself getting impatient and frustrated that we haven't heard much from him, but really, a couple weeks is not a lot of time, especially considering exams, Christmas, family, etc. And you're right, his last rom does still serve me very well. I'm actually reverting back to his tonight... vins had its drawbacks for me.

What was the last rom (from any chef) that worked well with bluetooth?

my bt car stereo doesn't like VIN's 23506v4, frequently disconnecting, failing to receive calls when paired, etc. I really wish there was a better overall bluetooth solution for our phone, cuz i have my phone paired to 4 things.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] egzthunder1:

WOW!!!!!!!!!! You ever heard that EMINEM song "Stan"????? That's what all you crazy ****ers sound like. You act like he is your partner and he is not spending time with you. I have read SO much on here and it's always "NFSFAN Where are you or When's your next release?" WAIT AND FIND OUT!!!!!!!!!!

Like mention SO MANY TIMES, this is a gift to us that he is taking a small break from. This is also a forum site and NOT A SOCIAL NETWORK!!!!!!! GET A FACEBOOK OR MYSPACE FOR THAT!!!!!!!

I understand also that some of you have donate as I have BUT I donate to the work that he has DONE ALREADY and NOT the work I want him to do. So, please people, be considerate and give the man some space........

If you want to try the more updated roms and stuff then Go try some beta's. I did. Not saying I dont love NFSFAN's work but you have to venture right? Vin has an amazing rom out right now and these two "cooks" talk so the are getting tips and ideas from each other.

Happy Holidays!

Dear Mister-I'm-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans,

this'll be the last package I ever send your ass

It's been six months and still no word - I don't deserve it?

I know you got my last two POSTS;

I wrote the addresses on 'em perfect

So this is my DEMAND I'm sending you, I hope you hear it

I'm in the car right now, I'm doing 90 on the freeway

Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive?

You know the song by Phil Collins, "In the Air of the Night"

about that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drowning

but didn't, then Phil saw it all, then at a show he found him?

That's kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning

Now it's too late - I'm on a 1000 downers now, I'm drowsy

and all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call

I hope you know I ripped ALL of your pictures off the wall

I love you NFSFAN, we coulda been together, think about it

You ruined it now, I hope you can't sleep and you dream about it

And when you dream I hope you can't sleep and you SCREAM about it

I hope your conscience EATS AT YOU and you can't BREATHE without me

See NFSFAN; {*screaming*

Shut up *****! I'm trying to talk!

Hey NFSFAN, that's my girlfriend screamin in the trunk

but I didn't slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I ain't like you

cause if she suffocates she'll suffer more, and then she'll die too

Well, gotta go, I'm almost at the bridge now

Oh ****, I forgot, how am I supposed to send this **** out?

Anyone else have the message "the remote party ended the connection" while you are tethering the phone to a laptop ? Im with bell and this has just started like 1 week ago.

I tried V16 and 1.00, Same problem. I've tried the CDMA dialer and the GSM dialers.

Hope bell didn't figure this out or ill be stuck to use PDANet. Im testing PDANet right now and it hasn't disconnected yet.

Love the work BTW NFSFAN.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drewden123:
Seriously...all you people complaining like you're paying NFSFAN as your personal rom cooker or something need to really get a good grasp on reality. These phones are so outdated you're lucky he even considers cooking for them. He has built many stable roms that have yet to be beat, no matter how many other chefs are "pumping out other builds" it's quality not quantity. If you're that itching to get rid of the build you have then I suggest flashing to android. The devs over in the vogue android section have made monumental success in permanently having android on your phone. Once again, stop acting like NFSFAN owes you something by building roms because it's his hobby. If you're so fed up with not having an updated rom I suggest: 1.) Get a TP or TP2 or Droid 2.)Flash your vogue to android 3.) or build a rom YOURSELF that is better quality than even the betas of NFSFAN, which I doubt you could accomplish.

Feature request: Long hold send key

On another topic ..... I was recently using VIN's Rom and I since the VOGUE is so challenged with the amount of buttons we have, I really liked what Vin did with the LONG HOLD SEND KEY. As you can do with the end key, VIN made it possible to do a mappable long hold on the SEND KEY. Who's with me? More buttons on a Vogue?? ? . ..................... no one? .............. .... (tap, tap) "Is this thing on?".
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] ski21:
I can't get the long send key press to work. I have it mapped to task manager and it doesn't pull it up. How long do you have to press it.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] bobzero:
There's also a huge contingent of us on Bell that will stick with the Vogue for a long time to come as it is the only worthwhile phone with our provider that allows us to use a cheap data feature called "unlimited mobile browsing" aka unlimited data for $7 or $10 a month (Or free for some lucky people).

If any of us Bell people wanted to "upgrade" to a newer PDA (OMNIA 2, ect) we'd have to add a "real" data plan to our phone for something like $30/month with 500mb of use.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] drewden123:
Yea...I might be getting a verizon data plan for Christmas. $30 a month w/ 5gb cap. I would have had data a long time ago if I could've gotten it for $7 a month. That's insane.

Skin with Weather on Home

I think my question was lost in the bantar of peoples expectations from nfsfan's.

Does anyone know of any skins for m2d customizer that will allow me to keep the weather update on the home screen?

(side note to drew; these phones are so old, personally i'm waiting for a similar size phone with wifi everything new seems bulky and for someone to do this is unreal especially for someone who can upload a rom but would be lost in a kitchen.)

With the latest ROM ver. 1 (17) i believe - with my plantronics voyager bt - it works great - even Voice command - but the control for stopping and starting media does not work.

hi

I'm trying to find where i can download NFSFAN's latest WM 6.5 ROM. I tried it in the past, but I had some problems with my device. HTC Touch Vogue.

Replace Home "calender" with Missed Calls

easily seeing your missed calls is one of the most important parts of a phone. I was really disappointed to see m2d is now missing this feature. Has anyone figured out how to replace the calendar under the clock with missed calls/call history? I read earlier in this thread that you cant, but I really dont believe that is true, and that was quite some time ago. I dont see why you couldnt just swap out all the information in the xml for the calender/missed calls.

I know this really isnt the right thread to post this in, but i cant find the manila 2d thread.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] situ1962:
Hello

I also faced the distorted icons problem.But one thing has worked for me.I change the default background by going to today settings followed by soft reset.This has worked for me.

One more thing I want to mention here.I have noted that during booting of the phone,if the background image opens correctly before Titanium/Touch Flo,icons work fine.But,if the BG image does not open and I get a white BG before TF or Titanium laumches,icons get distorted.A soft reset or two generally solves this.Otherwise,I have to change the BG.

This is my personal experiemce.This does not happen with VIN roms.Why with NFSFAN roms?Can anybody throw some light?

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] thefish123:
I am one of those people. Unlimited data for $7/month :-)

I recently went to the Bell store and had a look at the new devices. I cannot find a compelling reason to upgrade. The Samsung Galaxy is running Android (so am I on my HTC Touch right now) and has only a slightly lager screen then the Touch.

The Samsung Omnia II is running WM but I do not think it is any more recent then what we are getting here from our good friend NFSFAN. The only thing these phones offer is a slightly lager screen (I mean slightly) and more updated software. But over here at XDA we can update the software ourselves.

Every time I talk to someone at Bell and mention that I am using the Touch they do this silly full-body shudder like it was the more horrible phone ever. Then when I tell them I love it they say “oh, you must be the one in 10” and give me a story about how customers either loved or hated the Touch and only one in 10 people liked it and for everyone else it was some king of “nightmare phone”. One time I heard that it’s not a *real* Windows Mobile device but is a “browser only” device.

I have actually starting to wonder if Bell is telling the CSR’s and in-store reps to spread FUD about the Touch because they gave unlimited data for a good price on this phone and it is so upgradable. For sure they must also know we are all upgrading our Touch’s and have the GPS working.

I will wait another year till my contract expires and then see what is on the market. For now I am very happy with my Vogue and see no compelling reason to upgrade my hardware. Any upgrade would really be more of a lateral move then an upgrade anyway.There is nothing on the market today that I see that is a whole lot better then what we have. The cameras are better… ok I will concede that.

I am waiting for the Windows Mobile-based iPhone killer. I mean it. Seriously… not an iPhone “contender” or “if you really love Microsoft you will be able to put up with this phone and try to convince yourself it’s as good as the iPhone”. No, I mean a really slick phone with a great user experience running Windows Mobile. Something that gives makes the iPhone look like “yesterday’s cool phone”. Come on Microsoft… make us proud. In the meantime I am running Android for a while :-)

Im also running Android and like it but for several major flaws. Bluetooth doesnt work. GPS only works for a few minutes after first run then nevermore.

NFSFAN,

Could I impose upon you to update us? it has been over a month since you promised us and update to V1, and talked about a new rom. With Vin stopping future development of the Vogue ( He just got a TP2) I'm wondering if we've come to the end of all development for the vogue (I've still got a year on this contract) or whether to just accept the apparent fact that this fantastic ride is over. Thanks for all your hard work and giving us this fantastic journey.
