Its from KWBR himself.

This was his latest attempt for a 6.5 version of Topix :D (he did a very good job )
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tom$oft:
Super, I'm flashing :) :) :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] khanem:
well it's the same as topix 3.1.2 but with windows 6.5. you get less ram available. the rest is the same. it is stable but no real plus.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KayK:
i have finally flash it this morning and currently working great, except it reboot itself after i hard reset, after that it seem to be ok...i got to say, i'm surprised to see the smaller file size (maybe due to the new manila)...

looks like i need to redo all my wallpaper cabs and clock as well as the previous version of topix i'm on is using CFC compressed, even without compression TouchFLO is working fast...

kudos to KWBR, i can only imagine what KWBR can do with HD2...

edit: it comes with a slightly older ROM version than the topix i used, the % of memory after reset is around 38% without any program installed...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Smobbo:
What a fantastic Rom by KWBR again!

It runs flawlessly and much faster then the many 2.5 Roms i've tried!

I didn't like the old black & white icons, but this thread fixes that for me :)!

Together with this background for all tabs creator and Gfreek's Taskbar it is the best rom around!

I'll keep an eye out for any bugs i might encounter, but so far none :)!

jingers,

kwbr changed the post of 3.1.2 WM6.1 for 3.2 WM6.5.

may we post there regarding the new ROM or we shall do it here?

cheers! :)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jigners:
the beta 4 is win 6.5 with the old manila 2.1 not the sense one, while Topix 3.2 has got the HTC Sense, similar but not the same as the Vanilla series Rhodium Port. so there is still the distinction there.

you might want to try Topix 3.2, its as fast and as stable as Vanilla Series.

would appreciate your feedback. thanks for trying.

to me this (almost forgotten) work of KWBR. is the perfect combination

Win 6.5 v21877 and the old Manila 2.1.

the Leo (Manila 2.5) ROM port is just too taxing for the HD and it was not

just made for it.

But as I have a commitment also to test these - Leo (Manila 2.5) ROM port -

Miri's Leo ROMs for the HD is also an excellent effort at this attempt.

Today Screen

I just flashed this ROM and this is awesome Rom to have on your device.

there's one problem that i was trying to add Owner Information to the TODAY screen, but every time i go to setting --> personal -> Owner information and try to add the item to the Today Screen .. i was unsuccessful to add this on the Today Screen.

Do you guys have any ideas? or suggestion ? or did i miss anything else?

thanks

this ROM is rock (thanks to Kwbr )

I just flash the ROM today to test it and for now look like a ROKET But if anyone tell me how to REMOVE the Program Tab from the Touch FLO will be perfect... so i don`t use this tab but in the ARANGE REMOVE TABS im not able to unchek the Program tab because is just missing the Chaking BOX LOL

Thanks in advace

i dont think you can remove the Programs tab, it is just like the Home tab that there is no option to remove it.:)

Thanks in advance

Where have you been all those months? You seem to have disappeared from planet earth.

Would that be the same combination os+manila? Only reason for now which is holding me back releasing is that I still have not found the real cause eT9 not saving words. It is a real nasty one.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tsalta:
kwbr 1st thank for the ROM now im testing it.

Will be very very awesome YOU to cook a Simple ROM to be like a ROCKET from long time im talking this and nobody take it serious, now will explain you what i mean and if you think im right you can do something like this.

For example a ROM 6.5 from COM2 for example build 21093 or some new that will appear because like we know this Builds are one of the most bug free and good battery, Simple Manila 2.1 or 2.1 Sense, What is much more importmantly is.

The whole ROM to be compressed from the Manila to All imagie files in the ROM, the BlackstoneHange you can chek out are around 120 130mb and some other ROM with the same Apps installed are around 180mb,

If The Manila is Compressed for more Speed, the ROM is clean by clean i mean delate all files that are NOT USED like when you create a WWE ROM all language files for the manila are still there so if all is CLEARED and Compressed the ROM can be really simple and speed, and the most importmanly is to be Cooked ONLY with the MUST HAVE APPS from HTC that are there by default..

Because OPERA, FaceBook, and thousend other APPS can be installed Later via CAB and they always to be UP TO DATE, also the peoples will be able to choice WHAT THEY WANT, WHAT THEY USE on theyr Phone, and to keep it simple clean and usefull. A ROM like this will be a Serious Rocket for a LONG LONG TIME, because the peoples will not need to flash every week new ROMS just because the half apps that are cooked have Update to a newer Version.

If i have a ROM like this for example i can use it really long time.. and i will have installed via cab ONLY the APPS that i really NEED and will use, because NOW is full with ROMS with so many apps and things that honestly Nobody use all the APPS cooked into the ROM`s.

I think that must to be Cooked apps ONLY that cannot Be installed via CAB and APPs that will not have UPDATE.

a Simple,Cleared, Compressed 6.5 ROM with 2.1 Sense will be Perfect
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jonifen:
Nice idea, but for once, without the Sense... which is what this ROM is all about in the first place :D

I look out the window to see the weather ;)

edit: I haven't really updated anything from what was installed on this ROM by default, it seems pretty up-to-date from my point of view. Certainly more up-to-date than if I'd stuck with the Stock ROM!

One thing I have noticed over the last week though, is if you go through contacts and call someone, the memory usage stays low. If you press the left button (pick-up) though, it brings up the Phone app. Call the contact you wanted via that, it seems to hold some memory up. About 2-3% to be (relatively) precise.

This isn't a complaint as such, more "an observation" as I'd say a WM6.5 ROM to sit on 45% memory usage (after using the left "pick-up" button) after a week of uptime is pretty damn impressive :D

If I make calls via Contacts, it sits at around 43% after a week which is obviously better, but what is 2% at the end of the day? :P
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bodisson:
Yup, I agree...

Even better for me would be Manila 2.1.19212117.2 (Sense 2.1 Weather used by Wajk in his ROMs) which perfect fits my needs and likings. And I need bløødy weather...

But, in any case 6.5 and Manila/Sense/Sense Weather 2.1

Only problem I have with currently used ROM (blackSTONEhenge) is its WM 6.5.x base
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jonifen:
Why? Do you work in a basement? :D

As I said before, the whole appeal of this ROM is that it has Manila 2.1 without Sense (weather) included and as a result it's damn quick!

If you want Sense, you'd be better off giving the Topix 3.4 / 3.5 releases (with Sense 2.1) a bash.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jeanfrederic:
+1000000000000, no need of this bloody useless weather thing! We just need speed :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bodisson:
:D Hehehe, no. But part of my work depends on how weather will be during day, not how it is now.

And comparing My location with City forecast gives me quite good idea what I can expect. And yes, they are different (obviously getting info from 2 different stations).

Of course, if I have to live without it, I can... :)

I did, and had some problems with Topix 3.5 WM6.1 Manila 2.1 Sense weather... I might revert to it...

Hmmm... can't remember have I tried Topix 3.5 WM6.5 Manila 2.1 Sense weather...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tsalta:
I cannot agree with you and now will explain you WHY.

Of course the Touch FLO is faster, clear and smooth than the Sense and i prefer too the Touch FLO and i don`t use the weather under the Clock in Home tab BUT i use the weather in the Weather TAB.. so here is my Point..

The 2.1 Sense and 2.5 Sense have integrated My location Service in the Weather tab and this is very very Usefull and is absolutly Accurate from over 1.5 years using this everytime i chek the weather is acurate.

But in the Old Touch Flo this services is not providet and there is no MY LOCATION service and you just can add your city manual.. this is not problem at all But the diference is really big, for example the Weather in the Touch FLO is not Acurate and in this Point the whole TAB is useless because if out the weather is Sunny 20 Degree and the Touch Flo show is not so sunny and is a 12 Degree why i need a weather like this? when even without Weather Options every normal person can say lol today is sunny around 12-18 Degree with naked EYE:)

So when the weather is not acurate the whole tab is Useless and i will never know that if there was not avalible cooked ROMs for our Blackstones with SENSE.

Now if you want to test this by yourself for example you are in NY go into weather tab if you are using SENSE version and add manualy NY then Update and you will see a diference in my Location witch is again NY and in the Manual Added City NY.

The Sense Show real acurate Weather Forecast.

So like i say i Prefer Touch FLO of course the reason to ask a 2.1 Sense is Only the Weather TAB and My Location Services.

If somehow someone is able to integrate in the Touch FLO My Location Services.. im talking only for the Weather TAB then i don`t need anymore the SENSE.. also i dont need to Home weather under the clock i just need in my Weather Tab to know that the Weather is Acurate and Show the REAL Weather forecast...

This can be incredible ROM now all the peoples who use Touch Flo think they have a Weather Forecast but its not acurate forecast witch mean is TOTALY Useless.

And to be HONEST only for this reason im using 2.1 Sense... i like more the Touch FLO and i dont care for the colored icons in sense and etc etc i just care about the Weather.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jonifen:
You have a valid point, they may not be the same. I personally find looking outside works for me but I can appreciate it doesn't do for everyone. If it did, HTC wouldn't have even put weather in on any of them.

As for having Sense, this is available on the existing strands of Topix. This doesn't cover the clean compressed rom though granted, but it would probably be a more suited start than this one...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jeanfrederic:
This seems mistaken to my eyes. The weather tab isn't a weather forecast, it is just what the weather is right now. The hour by hour forecast comes out of Opera page from TheWeatherChannel.

From my part, the weather is always wrong here in Brussels. The moon shows her face till 9AM and the sun still shines at 10PM. LOL !

About precision, it is about +/- 5°c and 1 or 2 hours lag.

If you need accurate weather forecast (4 forecasts a day) you should have a try to SPB Weather which is far far better, more handy and accurate than this crappy HTCweather tab...
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Bodisson:
Ah, I see where the problem lies....

Of course weather tab is no forecast... for that I have much better sources :)

But if My location (when I'm on work) says Drizzle and City says Thunderstorm, I know I have trouble coming... Because now I know (from experience) that source stations for those data are at least 5 Km apart

But I think we are drifting away from original topic... which is possible changes in (possible/future) Topix ROM :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] tsalta:
Always when i use My Location with Sense 2.1 the Weather is SUPER REAL i test it many times if show that is 18 degree and RAIN the weather is really Raining and is 18 Degree often My Location services is more acurate than the Weather News on the Local TV.

So Nobody can predict the weather with 100% Sure, because for few Hours everything can be changed, but when the Server for my Location is really acurate Server you can have a forecast for one week. I don`t know WHY you need to use a 3rd part Software to see the weather, when we have integreted in the Manila this option.

About the SPB weather i have it but i don`t like it there already have cooler APPSfor weather forecast like Touch Weather Pro.

Now we talk about this that the Sense Weather in my Location is 10 times more acurate than the Touch Flo Weather.

If have somehow to be integrated My Location services in the Touch FLO weather TAB will be awesome combination.

About that you wrote is not Weather forecast when you update My Location there is info what will be Tomorow, and so on for one week. Like i say the Weather change all the time and nobody can predict with sure, but when you update you have the acurate INFO for this MOMENT so can be writen that Tomorow will be from 20 to 24 Degree Sunny..

Even in the TV Weather Forecst they don`t say tomorow will be 22 Degree Sunny they say from...to.... So my point is that if you have My Lcation Services and you use it often i mean Update you will have acurate Weather INFO and is like Forecast because there is not info only for TODAY there is info for the Whole week.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jeanfrederic:
You don't get what i say. I say present weather is always wrong here in Brussels, i don't speak about forecasts precision.

About the present and daily forecasts, you have only the present eather, SPB has 4 forecasts a day, this is the huge difference because it is useless to know the weather from now and having no idea about the evening of the same day. This is why i don't use this tab: not accurate, not relevant, slowww.

Anyway... cheers

this thread is slowly turning to a debate of which one prefers what

Sense Weather of Old Touch FLO3D.

this maybe discussed and debated which is best to each own liking

but the bottom line is, "each to his own liking". I love my HD2 and the weahter

animation it brings, but others say its better to look out the window which

is right in a way. but still. . .:)

This must be the fastest rom for the HD....hands down :)

However...Since I'm getting errors when syncing my email/calendar via google(active)sync...I'll have to look for another rom :/

-edit-

Last night flashed again to a sense 2.1 rom...But it doesn't feel as smooth as this topix rom :p

So...back for now ^^
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jigners:
Use MyPhone, and windows live! best error free!

i've never used google sync, not even on my HD2 now, so i couldnt help you

But the one thing that has never gave me problem is MyPhone and windows Live
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] dgen:
Thx for the advice, but no thanks ;)

The problem sometimes occurs when I added a new appointment.

Result is 'there has been a change on the exchange server...' by activesync.

So I have to download all the messages/appointments....again :p

But heck..this rom truly is the fastest rom available..hands down :)

If Kwbr could update the built of this rom (not 6.5.x), maybe the problem should be solved.

If he does...I'll buy him a couple of beers ^^

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] eduardoarrarte:
Hi, I'vew been using Dutty's 3.9XT for some months now and want to make a change. I don't care about weather or eye candy, I just want speed and stability (which is why I don't like any of the "ultimate" ROMs for th HD with Manila 2.5 and what not that all feel like a 100Mhz Pentium running Windows Vista).

I've read through the whole thread and am pretty convinced this ROM is pretty much what I'm looking for. But wouldn't it be better (speed and stability) to get the last Topix with WM 6.1 + Manila 2.1 (After a lot of looking around I've found this: Kwbr_Topix_3.5_WM6.1) instead of WM 6.5 + Manila 2.1 (what this thread is about)

Last time I tried to go from WM 6.1 to WM 6.5 I did feel it slower (Dutty's), wouldn't this apply to Topix as well?

Eduardo
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jonifen:
If you've always used WM6.1 then you will notice the difference I'm sure. Saying that though, I much prefer 6.5 and the kinetic scrolling it offers, I find it makes it more finger friendly.

It's well worth a try to see if it's what you're after though.

After a reboot, my phone sits at 37% memory load and the 6.1 topix sits at 32% so there is a difference in that, but worth it in my opinion.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] jigners:
jonifen above points exactly the right answer to your query. there is indeed a

small perceptible difference with Win 6.1 and Win 6.5. it all boils down to a

matter of preference.:)
