[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquidgyB:
I agree with the OP on his first suggestion;

A lite rom for each WM build, with updated drivers/tweaks and a selection of cabs for commonly used applications so we can pick and choose what we install.

I don't much like TF3D or Panels, I prefer SPB applications (low resource use and better customisation, IMHO).

Of course "tweaks and drivers" can sometimes be a matter of opinion, but as far as ROMs go I'd like any available choice to be mine. So if there's a choice between two or more Ati driver dlls, for example, to provide the ddls for download to be installed at the user's discretion.

Even an untweaked lite ROM for each WM build would be good, so we can experiment with tweaks and configuration as we see fit.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bxsteez:
Whoa for each WM build? There are hundreds of builds out there. I will update the builds as i find out about them but i don't think i'll be cooking a ROM for each build out there. I think i'm going to start with a lite rom.

Question to all. Do you want panel manager installed so you have the flexibility to install the panels or just blank. If i don't install panels i'm going to try and remap the the panel buttion to a start button.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtrab:
Panels are cool IMHO
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amplificator:
I would love to see a rom that is as close to stock as possible regarding content.

A stock rom with tweaked settings for performance. No added programs (such as TF3D, games, plugins, apps etc.)

Then provide links to cab files containing new apps and so on.

Etc. a cab for TF3D, cab for Blackstone Dialer, cab for Blackstone keyboard and so on.

That way people can install those seperately and get their phone 100% like they want it.

The main problem with most roms is that people do not want all of it so by making a single clean stock rom containing only updated apps, drivers and tweaks and then making cab files available that would certainly make more users switch.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dogans:
Agreed 100%.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WackJester:
I hope you make a basic tweaked rom where you can add or remove your cabs. so you can easily update de progs by uninstall the old cab and replace it with the new version.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bxsteez:
I'm going to start working on a Lite ROM tonight when i get home. I'm going to try a performance tweak that i've done before..... Hopefully i don't brick my phone :)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcbyte_it:
As many of those who responded:

- TF3D

- All stock apps* (Yes, i want OneNote, i use it at work and it is great)

- All stock games*

- to be stable enough, to use for few months without worrying about flashing again..

*about stock apps and games, it is ok also to remove them from the ROM but at least provide them as cabs.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJ15k:
basically a FAST rom, these little devices are nice, but the small lags are quite annoying when you are in a hurry (like when you slide the keyboard to write someone s name to cal them but then you slide it back because you want to phone without the keyboard extended)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BIG-Stan:
I'd agree on most points!

A great idea to start cooking :)

I think it would be pretty neat if you could cook a rom with all the stuff (TF3D, panels manager and so on) but make the apps uninstallable, if possible and please please please leave the tf3d in black :D I just love the whole stuff on may phone in black!

p.s.: did you see the ripped max 4G contacts app? its much better than the htc and windows one. I installed it today and its really smooth!

Thanks in advance!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bxsteez:
You have a problem with the speed of the screen rotation? I haven't seen this on any of the roms i've used with the exception of my current one lol.. but i think i screwed something up.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mkouk:
I would have to agree with other people on this thread...an speedy ROM which does not deviate much from the stock one but improves on it, then a list of cabs with all the add-ons so that each user can customize their device as they see fit.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bxsteez:
No i have not seen this?!?!?!?!?! I want to though. I'll be doing some searching when i get home. I can definitely make it all uninstallable but its going to consume quite a bit of memory because those cabs would just sit in ur windows directory until you delete them but it should be uninstallable i think....
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amplificator:
Please consider making a near-stock rom that is tweaked to gain whatever speed that can, as a lot of people in this thread is requesting.

Then you can make cabs for all extra applications such as the 4G contact application.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bxsteez:
Probably will not be using the yota contact app because it doesn't support landscape.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BIG-Stan:
oh, you're right! it doesnt support landscape and the optical joystick.....oh well....maybe one day we can have everything we want but it seems like its not today :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] buzzdennis:
Hello everyone. First post here in the forums. I've been reading up a bit on all of the cooked ROMs here. I must say, all of you that are contributing to this community are doing a GREAT job. I've gathered so much information in the few weeks that I've frequented these forums. Anyway, on to my suggestions of app additions.

Anyway to include the Touch's auto stitching panorama functionality with this or similar registry tweak?

Also, this was just announced, but when Footprints comes out, I think it would be a great addition for the Xperia. Automatic Geotagging would be really fun.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquidgyB:
Sorry, I meant for the newest build as they come out, rather than each and every build available :)

I'd be more patial to TF3D if it worked properly in landscape, something that might work if we ported it from that wimax HTC thingymeedoodah. Still, I'm not keen on the TF3D media player, and I somehow always end up just flashing a lite ROM and installing what I like on there.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bxsteez:
I would love to get my hands on a Max 4G ROM. It would have to be WWE Rom i think. Any ROM would help right about now. Again i'm kinda new at this so you guys are gonna have to bare with me a bit. :)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bxsteez:
OK everyone i've taken everything you guys have said and currently I have removed:

Bejeweled (its shareware)

Acrobat Reader

Almost all ringtones(thinking about removing the rest)

Startup animation (the little xperia gif that shows up)

All panels(panel manager still present so can install panels again)

google maps(i want to put it back on but i want the new version with streetview)

.... I think that is it

Added:

HTC enlarge start menu (I just can't use my phone without it)

tnyynt SD Tune UP

Opera 2141(stock one that comes on xperia)

.NET Framework 3.5

ATI Drivers.

I think that is it. I'm testing out its stability so i'll try and release it tonight.

Its working of XIP|SYS 21014 which i hear is the newest one. I've read that 21109 is some sort of hex edit or something. The base ROM i started with is the X1a ROM.

I'm having an issue with the calculator but i think i know what the problem is.

Please let me know your opinion on what i've added and what i've removed.

I like a lite ROM, so stripped of useless apps as much as possible (even office, google maps etc.), with some good performance tweaks. It's always more nice to fit it to your own needs, then getting a ROM with even more useless apps then there already are in the stock ROMs.

Nevertheless, much respect for all the ROM builders out there :)

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i_am_jon:
I'm still looking for the perfect lite rom with UC:

- Loose all the videos, ringtones, windows update and welcome stuff

- Keep core apps like office, windows live/msn, media streaming, adobe reader and all themes

- I prefer to install games from UC

- Leave opera out so can choose which version we want and install using UC

- Add essential basics like .net 3.5, blackstone dialer, volume, enlargestartmenu, FM radio app (not panel), advance task manager, rar, regedit, syncrotime, spb panel, wvgafix3, google maps lattitude. Some can be UC however if it's all installed via UC the remove programs list becomes massive :(

- I realy like quickmenu

- Performance tweaks, so long as they don't break stuff.

Posted again, hopefully in the correct FORUM area :)

I have an HTC Touch 3G (Jade) and would like to know if it is possible to completely uninstall the TouchFlo2D from my phone (the one installed from the ROM with Hard Reset).

1. to get space back and

2. to use another GUI, like PointUI 2.

Any suggestions please?

I suggest you go to the Jade section and read about Flashing new ROMS. you will be replacing your operating system with another of the same kind but different applications.

Hi,

I have done a lot of searches but can't find the answers.

I have a phone bought from Orange. Waiting for Orange to release the latest HTC update will be pointless and HTC won't let me download latest from site.

to install latest official ROM I believe I need to install one of the hardspl's listed on this site (was going for OliNex1.93)

My works PC will not allow USB connection ( I always use Bluetooth) and just tried to install using activesysnc on my home PC but the comms dropped off at the start of the process.

Can I install hardspl from internal storage? If so how?

Once that is done i believe I will be ok.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] R3PUBL1K:
It would be best to get active sysnc running first. Although there are other ways. I presume you are using XP and running the installer of ActiveSync 4.5 without having your phone attached.

Have you read this HERE
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] band27:
Internal Drive Method: Radio's & Rom's, Yes

HARD SPL ....not recomended to be done via Internal Drive Method!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] liamhere:
welcome to the forum

just follow instructions to the letter and your be fine

have fun :p
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] PCPhil:
My home PC is Vista and this is were the update started but then stopped.... a few moment of panic but a soft reset showed nothing had been done.

My work PC is XP but trust me 'nothing' will allow USB activesync to work. Can I do it over Bluetooth.

Yes I have read guides.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] R3PUBL1K:
If you are using Vista - which version? Vista has an alternative to Active sync named "Windows Mobile Device Center" is this still installed on your PC. you should be able to connect your device and WMDC should detect and load the drivers for your device.

I have noticed in the past that some machine require a restart even for the device to be detected. So do this before you connect your device and report back.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] PCPhil:
Yep using Windows Mobile Device Centre. Perhaps I should qualify. Bit of a newb on ROM updating but pretty technical on PCs and IT level.

Put hard spl 1.4 onto the device successfully.

Ran the upgrade utility on my PC for latest official ROM.

Got to 100% but then got Upgrade ROM code error

Please try again.

Looked this up and forums advised to extract the .nbh file and put onto root of internal storage.

At present I am at tricolor screen trying to browse to storage from XP PC but no joy.

The device says USB and when I connect my PC tells me it is connected but can not find root drive.

Any pointers?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] RizwanKhan:
if you are trying to flash rom from storage card than you don't need your pc. Just rename the nbh to DIAMIMG.NBH and place in root of your storage card. Power on device and it will automatically start the flash process for you.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] PCPhil:
Problem is I can't locate my storage card to copy and paste the nbh to start the process.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] RizwanKhan:
do you have a adapter for your microsd, typically an sd card adapter? if so use that to directly connect storage card to pc and copy-paste

[Touch HD General] babyface215:
I am a TILT Owner but would like to upgrade to the Touch HD..but I have a few questions first. Could anyone answer the below for me...I would really appreciate your assistance.

Question #-1: How can I get my hands on one of these? I called HTC and they stated that this is not offered in the US.

Question #-2: Now should I be able to get my hands on this device..would the radio work on T-Mobile's Network?

Question #-3: What would be the potential cost? I can unlock it myself.

And do you know if I could swap the Radio on that phone for another HTC Touch Device that is domestic should the Radio only give me a 2G signal as oppose to 3G?
[Touch HD General] djskaw:
I got mine from www.expansys-usa.com and i am using it on tmobiles network. 3g will not work no matter what radio you put on there because i think that is a hardware issue. the phone comes unlocked
[Touch HD General] VizagDude:
I am also using it on T-Mobile USA network. No issues with Edge speeds. I got mine from Clove UK at the very beginning. I actually pre-ordered mine.

I am running cooked ROMs on my device and am not looking back. But I really doubt you can lay your hands on one of these babies... unless you buy one or you know someone who already bought one.

Acutally you know what.. I lied... You can actully chek out the device in Mobile City store in NYC (if you live around the area).

2008/12/31 11:01	(EU team)	I understand that some users are having difficulties with a so called lag in the usage of Tomtom and Touch Pro. HTC does not have any upgrades in order to disable the lag of updating the position to the Tomtom application. Tomtom is indeed a third party application and I would therefore recommend you to contact them to see if they have any fixes for the so called lag issue

2009/01/21 16:11	(EU team)	Dear Mr. Skaryd I just wanted to get back to you in order to see if you have gotten the GPS working better. I would also like to inform you that there will be a ROM upgrade available in the near future (1.19). Please feel free to get back to us at any time if you have any further questions or queries. Kind Regards Dave Montanya HTC Europe

2009/01/22 07:57	Alexandr Skaryd	Hello, i got reply from TomTom, they claim the problem is not on their side, since they and other software producers like iGo etc are getting similar messages from users all over the world. The problem persists, it could be improved with some registry hacking aparently / as claimed on web, but i didnt try those. Anyway good to hear there is a rom update on the way.

2009/01/22 09:06	(EU team)	Thank you for your reply, I have personally looked around on forums etc in order to see what the root of the issue is. Some claim that a registry change or a patch to the application (tomtom) will solve the lag issues. It doesn't seem like there is a universal solution as for now. I, myself is awaiting the new ROM as well for testing with GPS software. Feel free to get back to me if you get any further info. I'll get back to you if I find a great solution. Kind Regards Dave Montanya HTC Europe

This is my correspondation with HTC support team. Aparently there is a new ROM for HTC Pro incomming, so maybe we are getting a fix for some of the bugs, maybe even the GPS fix. So lets hope someone actually WILL try the ROM when its available and inform the custom ROM users if anything was fixed.

hi,

Skaryd quotes:

does he mean ROM version 1.19?

i got my TP a week ago, it has rom version 1.90.707.4 WWE

which is much later than 1.19

but displays the gps lag.

the rom date state 8/23/08

which is prior to the date HTC said they would be releasing a new one.

i'm confused!
