This is the proven way to flash to a new ROM:

1. For Bell Flash stock Bell 6.1 Rom (let customizations run) radio 3.42.50

2. Flash NFSFAN's Rom, (bootloader mode) let customizations run

3. Flash NFSFAN's Rom, (bootloader mode) let customizations run

4. Flash NFSFAN's Rom, (bootloader mode) let customizations run

5. Not sure if you have to load NFSFAN GPS or Registry Provisioning cabs

6. Load favorite dialer

7. Load contacts, backups (I never load any apps until I test for 2 days)

8. Final Soft reset

If this does not work, you may have some hardware issue, heat issue, or a program, you are installing after flashing, is causing the problem.

My method has always been, connect the phone to my computer, close Active Sync, then (for you) run the Stock-Bell-RUU_Vogue_BM_WWE_3.09.666.1_Radio3.42.50_Ship.exe file, which automatically re-boots the phone into bootloader mode. This is also true when running the RomUpdateUtility.exe, which is included in NFSFAN's Rom folder, after un-raring the rar file.

Keep us posted.

just reflash your device with v13 or try the new manilla from the htc mega manilla version 2.0
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
That makes perfect sense since a lot of software will not work well with windows mobile 6.5. I have a found a few troublesome programs. One that comes to mind was a translator program, that I had loaded before. I could type in and English sentence and tell it to translate to Spanish or French and it would not be able to do it. They said the same thing "the software was not written for your windows version".

So I've simplified my phone to have just what I need loaded. And it turns out I didn't need all the other junk anyway.

Right now I have the following programs installed, along with what was cooked in the ROM:

GPS software, Sprint TV, RSS software, YouTube, Bing, Select Radio for Sat radio, NetFlix Manager, Mobi Trader, Sprite Backup, MemMaid.

V13

Is anyone else having issues with the Arcsoft MMS having problems opening a mp4 video? (also when u open a video with HTC album you get an error even though it already played the video).

I also noticed longer battery life with v13.

or is it maybe cause i started using advance configuration to auto disconnect the internet after 2 minutes. (if this is why, it will be nice to set is as default on the ROM)
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] bobzero:
I just tried out the new manila and it's not as impressive as I had expected. First the purported 15% reduction in memory usage is not true, it seems to use almost exactly the same amount (this is after I disabled the internet tab). Second, on the home screen, unlike the manila currently in v13, it no longer displays the time of your next alarm. Third, I don't find the aesthetics to be much of an improvement over the current theme.

Conclusion, unless there is a way to get the alarm time back on the main screen, I'd recommend sticking to the old Manila for v14.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] jonsharky:
I totally agree. That's probably why NFSFAN did not include that into V13 :o)

Pandora not working properly on v13

I am having issues with Pandora on v13. I did not finally notice until now since I do not use it a lot. Pandora on my phone now consistently cuts a song off just a few minutes into the song. After it cuts a song off, Pandora immediately starts to load another song, that song starts to play for a few minutes and then it cuts that song off. This cycle just continues until I turn Pandora off. Could this be a setting with caching being set too low somewhere? I really have no idea what it is and I am just trying to make a few guesses at this point. I was using the SHEKHAR dialer when I first noticed the problem and I thought maybe the problem was tied to it somehow. However, I reflashed v13 again, following the recommended proper procedures, without installing any additional dialers and Pandora is still doing the same problem. Can anyone please help? I will have to go back to v12 if this does not get fixed because no working Pandora is a deal breaker for me.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
I find my results to be totally different. The colors are a lot better, there is no lag, all tabs work perfectly and my free memory is higher.

Conclusion, it is probably a matter of preference and/or possibly the model (carrier) vogue you have. I find it a lot better and suggest anyone looking for an upgrade to install it.

Did one of the stupidest things possible...Tried to install the Vogue application on a Mogul (ppc 6800). So while they both might be HTC, I had for a moment, forgotten that both are not just different Carrier specific names (as Mogul and Tytn etc were). So here I am, with an unlocked phone, a rainbow band and no ROM to upgrade to.

Guess I have to try and go back on a stock ROM wm6.1

Anybody wants to laugh with me???

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] bobzero:
Colours are a subjective factor, and I'm sure that everyone here will have their own opinion about what colour combinations look best.

The performance between the new and old manilas feels the same to me.

All tabs were working perfect in the previous version as far as I could tell, which ones didn't work for you?

My free memory measured 1 minute after touchflo has loaded right after a soft-reset with the old manila was 56.54mb vs. 56.58 mb with the new manila, so a difference of 4kb, in other words, no difference.

I don't see any practical benefits to the new manila that outweigh the fault of losing the alarm time on the home screen.

Running on Bell, v13.

You are correct, we all have opinions.

Same thing with the ROMS. I, as well as many others, always upgrade as soon as a green light is given by NFSFAN and are batting 100% satisfaction with every little upgrade. Others wait to see fallout, or try the new one but like the older ROMS better.

I feel it is well worth the upgrade. Others may not.

I started a new topic for this, but once I started thinking about it, I thought it may be WM6.5 specific or maybe someone using NFSfan's ROMs may have the same issue. Here's what I'm dealing with. I've upgraded to the NFSFan WM6.5 V13 Rom and have now started to mess with the Radio to get better reception for talk and GPS...by the way, I'm with Verizon. During the flashing process for the ROM, I heard that 3.42.50 was a good radio, so I upgraded. Now, I would like to try other radios for comparison. I have tried installing Verizons 3.37.78 and Bell 3.42.30. After the installation runs completely via SDcard flash, it says "Installation complete". I have to soft reset to get it to reboot (i'm assuming this is normal); but once it reboots, it says "No Radio" and freezes. I have since reflashed back to the 3.42.50 radio without a problem. Any thoughts on why these other radios won't boot?

Thanks
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] kpoe:
use the other .nbh file when installing from your sd card the first one deletes teh radio the second one installs teh rom

The radios that i received came in a zip file (got all of them from PPCGeeks) and only had one VOGUIMG.nbh file in each zip...should there have been two files? This was true for the 3.37.78 and 3.42.30 that didn't work and the 3.42.50 that did work.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] kpoe:
if there is another .nbh file in the zip file? and if it's larger that the VOGUIMG.nbh your currently using, then it should be the one with the radio and rom information, so rename it to VOGUIMG.nbh and flash again

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Masterface7:
Hi, i am about to update to v13 and i was wondering what dialer v12 has in it, it seems to have some of the pros ans cons from both the stated gsm and cdma dialers. thanks
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
V12 had the GSM dialer in it. But a few people complained they didn't like it or had problems with it, so NFSFAN created V13 without the dialer. The ROM does have a stock HTC dialer which is nice all by itself. But some preferred the CDMA dialer where I and others preferred the GSM dialer.

He has included the 2 dialers as cab installs so you can choose on your own.

Just make sure when you flash your phone you don't take shortcuts. Follow the proven method and you should have a successful install.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Masterface7:
My installs have been successful it is just that while using v12 ##codes# seem to work using the gsm dialer.
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] tempests:
Then if you were having good luck with the GSM dialer, install that one after you finish flashing to V13. I tried both. The CDMA dialer is a little smoother and featureless. I don't want to lose the nice features of the GSM dialer so I stick with it.

Storage Card Disappears after reboot

I have an 8GB SDHC card in my phone and since I have flashed to v13 it disappears randomly, usually on a reboot. If I remove it and reinsert it it comes back again - for a while.

Thanks!
[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] Masterface7:
Well, I would love to flash my phone and find out if i would be lucky again with the gsm dialer, but for som reason when i try to flash from sd card it is saying no image file. Oh well guess i will have to wait till i get home from work.

And @cyber freak i haven't had any problems like that in quite a while but a back when i did i think i figured out that it was to do with the usb2pc. I made sure to not leave the option set on disk drive and it hasn't plagued me since, or maybe your card has bad contacts? Do you have another sd card you could try for a while.

[Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development] fromkrypton:
I tried to cut corners the first time I flashed V13. I would have hard resets for no reason at least 3 times a day.

I went back and followed these instructions except the Sprint Rom part exactly:

1. Flash stock Sprint 6.1 Rom, letting customizations run radio 3.42.30

2. Flash stock Bell 6.1 Rom (don't let customizations run) radio 3.42.50

3. Flash custom .nbh to remove the blue Bell screen nbh file

4. Flash NFSFAN's Rom from bootloader, letting customizations run

5. Flash NFSFAN's Rom from bootloader, letting customizations run

6. Flash NFSFAN's Rom from bootloader, letting customizations run

7. Load NFSFAN Sprint GPS Registry cab and NFSFAN Sprint Provisioning cab

8. Load favorite dialer

9. Load contacts, mail backups and apps

10. Final Soft reset

Now my Bell Touch on V13 runs flawlessly and no hard resets, been 3 days.

In M2dc you'll notice an option to back up your theme.

You should always do this first thing, on the original theme. Some themes are missing various parts, and as you go from theme to theme you'll notice things going aray.

Whenever I change themes I load up my backup first, then apply the new theme I want.

A new beta is coming out soon, if you don't flash to it (which will also solve your problem), let me know by pm and I will post the backup (original NFSFAN) theme for you.
