Let me try:

Matt: *1. Call history*

a.) Have different tab bars for "missed" "received "dialed" "all"... at the moment I only see (All).

I just flashed a ROM without TF3D, so I don't remember what this looks like: However this is one of those things where you're asking the chef to actually design a feature into the interface. He's not going to that.. it would come from HTC's developers (if you're using TouchFlo3D) or Microsoft (if you're using Windows' regular call history feature, which I believe does allow you to filter by type from under 'Menu'). There are many developers on this forum who have managed to significantly alter the functionality of the provided software, but for the most part the ROM chefs here pretty much spend their time assembling various existing packages into a fast, clean OS.

On another note, I think you'll actually get used to all the call history showing up chronologically, it's more natural as a time line. Usually if you just need to see missed calls you'd already have been given a list of those.

Matt: *2. Contacts*

a.) I don't see why there are 2 different styles of contacts. It is so confusing. (*1st type: "Start Menu --> Contacts"* and *2nd type: on today screen "People --> All People"*)

Microsoft created Windows Mobile with a built-in contacts feature, and this is what you're accessing through Start Menu->Contacts. HTC wanted to provide an easier, more attractive interface, so they created TouchFlo3D (including a contacts feature) and added it into the OS. Pretty much all of the tabs on your today screen duplicate a feature already in the OS.

b.) On the 2nd type method, if a contact has 2 numbers stored (home, mobile PLUS the "send message" you can see "information" and the "edit contact" button clearly... (99.9%) however you cannot click it. You have to scroll down fully.

Not sure what you mean, since I don't have TF3D on right now

c.) On the 2nd type method, the A-Z vertically aligned on the right hand side (in portrait mode) is really squashed together with tops and bottoms of each letter cut off.

This probably comes from the fact that this TouchFLo3D2 is actually ported over from the Touch Pro 2 (aka Rhodium) which has a WideVGA screen and is a taller device. The developers here had to rearrange things to make them fit on a VGA screen, so it doesn't always look perfect.

d.) on the first type method, go into a contact which you have rung/received call from previously: the time is cut off on the right hand side "1:08a" <-- missing "m"

e.) On the first type method, you cannot scroll through the names. Bug, feature or not... it doesn't work as intended. Since if you have more than 8 contacts of the same alphabet (like I do) and select "A" you cannot see the rest.

You can scroll, even if the regular contacts app isn't as physics-driven as TouchFlo3D. I just touch A then scroll down until I see Andy, for example. I'm not sure why you can't scroll.

f.) please add Toggle option to sort "contacts" by first or last name in the A-Z listing. Microsoft feature, not NRG It makes little sense to use the "surname" if I have to remember their surname all the time in order to find their contact card. I searched everywhere and can’t find a way to switch it

This is already handled, in two places. in Outlook on the desktop, you go into Options->Contacts and tell it to always 'File As' "First Last". It does "Last,First" by default maybe because Windows Mobile used to be mainly for business people. When editing a contact in Windows Mobile, you can also choose the 'File As'. See here http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/291144 if you have a large number of them already messed up in Outlook.

Matt: *6. Programs*

a.) In landscape mode, there is huge gap on right hand side. Would it be possible to utilize the space and increase it from 4 per row, to possibly 6 (looks like 6 should fit with the gap) - same for "All programs" when in landscape too.

b.) In Programs, is it possible to make option "rearrange" the programs. Therefore, our most favorite/used programs we can put to the top. EG Tweeter (always at the bottom) Remove them all and add them in the order you want.

Anything having to do with how the interface works in TouchFlo3D (black/gray UI with tabs) is a manila feature. Issues relevant to this thread are things like with the system crashes, how much battery life is used up, what programs are included, etc.

I lot of the issues you mentioned with TF3D I never had, eg. my action screen works fine.

Matt: *9. Communications*

a.) In landscape mode, you cannot "turn on or off" the settings by "sliding" the bar, every time you try, it opens it in full-view mode. It works fine in portrait mode.

I JUST FIGURED THIS OUT TODAY.... Those sliders don't slide at all. Just tap. Landscape or portrait, doesn't matter. I was always sliding and wondering WTF was wrong with it.

SO WE'VE TAKEN UP ENOUGH SPACE IN THE THREAD NOT TALKING ABOUT THE ROM ITSELF. Spend some time with your phone and you'll be OK. Just

remember that the chefs don't make features happen, they just combine the innovation of the forum (and stuff from other HTC devices) into a ROM that's better than the one that was shipped on your phone.
