Hello all! Recently i bought my new htc touch2 and i love it! And love this forum! Here some guidelines i found on how to instal application in your phone. I am sure it will help Newbies like me ;) ! It's about htc touch2 pro but i guess the steps are the same. I can't post the url link cause it says i am a new user so i'll just copy-paste the text... hope i am not breaking and forum rules :rolleyes:

cab files

the problem am having with mine is when i click on the exe/setup of any cab file it takes me to opera like connectin to the internet but it say the name of can on search and the page opens and stays blank,is there anything i can set up so that does not happen and let me install programs/cab applications.
[Touch2 Themes and Apps] rsc1974:
A cab file contains no setup exe, only one setup xml file.

How raidsteel wrote in point 3, you must leave the cab file as it is and copy to your Device.On your device then tap the cab file.

That is all and installed the program itself.;)

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssseii:
i hv used cooked rom for long time

but yesterday when i press the start button, some texts below the icon were transformed (one of the case is the texts is bigger than normal and overlay the icon, so strange)

then i flash the cooked rom i used again, but when i loaded the boot screen (orange windows mobile boot screen of htc boot screen), it stoped loading and reboot

therefore i flash couple time

some lucky cases are successful to load the htc setting screen and today (although most cases are freezed in this 2 screen), but after reboot just the same problem happened

i hv tried different rom, all of them cause the same

is it the hardware problem or battery?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bruce Inman:
Its likely a bad flash.

If hard sets don't work, reinstall your stock ROM, then try another cooked ROM.

Should fix the issue.

Hello all..

I'm a new HTC Diamond user, and after a 2-3 days of installing and removing all kind of roms i decided that someone should post a thread with the fastest ROMS for diamond.

as we know the HTC Diamond suffer from low battery and low ram...

i saw alot of new topid that users request fast roms...

so for me and other users (as i read in this forum) that want their phone to work fast, I'm making this thread.

So if you are looking to the fastest Rom with low RAM/Memory consuption and good battery life... you are in the right place!

so i'm starting a new table of a very fast roms..

any help from you users will be very greatful!

So this is the list so far..

All data taken from the actual thread od the roms creators..

Please get a look on the attach image Roms.gif

new users are not permitted to post outside links in their messages, so i'm unable to show it in this post only to attach i.

Any help with DATA or other good roms will be more then welcome!

Please help us the new ones to start easly!

btw! anyone who need help with installin groms please P.M me :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] aleck1:
I have original ROM with TOuchFlo3D disabled, running some today screen plugins (Date, East Today Launcher, EffComm, Device Lock)

WM 6.1

Free memory: 107 Mb

Free RAM after Boot-up: 44%

Battery drain after Boot-up: 63 mA

Free RAM after Standby Wake-up: 45%

Battery drain after Standby Wake-up:33 mA

All radios turned off (cell, gps, wifi, bluetooth).

Switch on when needed (via Today plugin EffComm)

donsalari's WM 6.1 SuperLite Titanium Version Two seems very interesting. I'd like to try it out, but I don't like installing all apps again.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ofear69:
can you post a link to this ROM that you are using?

i will check it out and add it to the list ;)

btw. Thanks for the info!

I'm using the SBS6.5S ROM... and i got to say...

It's really 48-50% RAM

but when i open apps the RAM goes to 70-80 even 90 and when i close it it's go back to 50%..

i will check more to give a better review
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] giany911:
I'd have to go with Atlas, it feels very fast.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] aleck1:
Well, actually it is the factory default rom, that was already inside my phone when i bought it.

It is normal when RAM goes up while using applications but during standby and after wakeup is the value that counts. I would definitley install a rom which has RAM usage like 35-36 %.

In your updates about new ROMs, it would be great when you post also "Current Battery Drain Value" - the bigger the value is, the faster battery will empty.

In my today screen there is instead of the original battery logo 3 values which show battery PERCENTAGE, Battery Drain Value in mA, and battery TEMPERATURE.

Fastest rom???

You write in your title: "The Fastest Rom List". But whre is a benchmark of speed??? I just see ROM and RAM... that has nothing to do with speed.

A while ago there was a poster, he did "real" benchmarking... but i dont understand this thread.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] ofear69:
Well.. i looked on those beanchmarks...but that didn't help me.

i'm only in my start but i think that the more Free Ram/Memory you have the more faster is your device?

if i'm wrong please tell me..
[HD2 General] cfds:
When ring type is set to vibrate only the phone does not vibrate when I have an incomming text, when I have an incomming phone call it works ok! Is there a setting I overlooked somewhere? The only thing i get is a pop up but the phone does not get out of sleep mode altough I have selected it...
[HD2 General] GaZ:
I had this. When you press the volume buttons there's 2 tabs at the top, make sure you've got system AND ring volume turned up.

Or, if that doesn't solve it, try plugging headphones in, messing with the volume, then unplugging again. This is how I accidentally fixed the issue on mine anyway haha

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] muhammad.hayat86:
3 days back i noticed that no matter how many times i press the power button on my HTC Touch Pro(Vodafone) the back light wont go off.If i keep on pressing it a power off message would appear asking me should i switch off my phone.By changing the power settings i had set it to Turn off the backlight after 30 secs(If not used).Which helped but the problem remains the same,after the backlight goes off it wont come back no matter how many times i press the power button:/.

It would only come back by sliding the Qwerty,as a result the Phone despite of the fact being turned off is using power and my phone dies off after 3 hours or so:S.I tried resetting it by Clearing the Storage(7 times) but it didn't help.After i which i opted to Hard reset it by holding down the Vol & Enter button and then pressing the rest using Stylus,but no matter how many times i try it the stupid Vodafone startup screen would appear and it would not(Tried it when the phone was on).the phone simply wont shut down,i tried by pulling off the batter,but once the battery is in it would start all by itself:/(In this way i cant hard reset the phone while it is off:/:/).How can i hard reset it??Somebody please help me!!!!

P.S:I have unlocked the phone so that i can use it in here.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] naviru:
Sounds really weird... maybe you can try executing task29 and flash a new rom....

but I'm not sure...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ben_duder:
Do you mean HardSPL? You could try flashing a stock ROM to the device after putting it in bootloader (hold volume down and press reset, keep holding volume down until you get the tricolour screen).

This thread should really be in the 'General' section...
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] muhammad.hayat86:
@Ben

Sorry mate i am a new user of this forum so didn't knew in which section should i place this thread, apologies for that.

From where would i find a stock ROM and how would i flash it(Procedure in detail)?And after flashing this stock ROM would i be able to restore everything using Sprite backup?

Thanks in advance!!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ben_duder:
Follow this guide if it's your first time, and as long as you've already backed your data up (which you should have if you were doing a hard reset anyway) then you should be fine with Sprite.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] funfair:
Go to the HTC website and download an original ROM from their support page.

Oh and when flashing back to stock, make sure you flash stock rom/radio first, before you remove HardSPL (see guide one post above)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] muhammad.hayat86:
Unfortunately the ROM available on HTC's(3.27.4.3) website is not supported by my phone:mad:(The text field after verifying my S/N number prompted that the ROM is not suitable for my phone).What should i do now?Shall i take the risk and give it a go??My only concern is that i don't want to end up with a locked phone after a ROM flash:/

P.S:Apologies for bad grammar.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] muhammad.hayat86:
My phone is Vodafone HTC Touch Pro GSM(Unlocked)
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Blackleopord187:
just give it a go. and flash it. you cant really even brick these phones. so your not losing anything. even flash a rom without the sprite backup built in. you can always get the cab
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Plomiwn:
Download rom from sunnysoft, there's no Serial number check in there.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Ovrclck:
maybe your power button is broken like mine! :D
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ben_duder:
I doubt it as he can still power off by holding the button down. Sounds like a software problem to me... Is it the same for you with regards to powering off?

Also, if you have a Desire ROM - it has Flash (lite of course)! Very nicely designed, sometimes laggy, browser if you ask me!

I never liked the original Dolphin Browser (think it's hideous and yea...not my cup o' tea) however I was blown away by the functionality and looks of this browser...

while it doesn't exactly fit my aesthetic it is still a beautiful app and another testament to the evolution of Android apps...

Hell, I even 'donated' for the ad free version simply because I always support apps I feel deserve it.

Now if only I can find a theming kit :-\
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] yongwk:
this browser win hands down.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] sonym4n:
It can't download zip files.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] adam18488:
a bit laggy sometimes, feels as though its not making full use of the snapdragon.

but it is amazing none-the-less, glad to see apps as well made as this finally making their way on to the platform.

will be my new browser for a while
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] diablos991:
I'll give it a try for a while.

It sure looks nice.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jblazea50:
like the new browser, made it my default for now
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] d0ugie:
All right, not bad, but any way to get it to hide the tabs?

Also about:config comes up blank. Any way to get deeper under the hood of this thing than the settings menu?

Any other shortcomings you guys are running into?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] johnnie93:
I'm loving it!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pjcforpres:
If it is like the previous Dolphin Browser, all the "about:debug or aboutd:config" stuff is available without having to type it in each time you want to tweak something, it is just in the more list, or whatever they have it titled.

Just downloaded and double checked, it is like the previous versions, just hit menu, more, settings, then system settings in that list.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jasrups:
Beautiful app although the lack of pseudo-flash will be holding me back from switching to it as my default browser. They're on the right track though, I'm sure I'll switch to Dolphin once Froyo comes out and flash will be standard.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stshannon:
You know, i installed this maybe only 8 hours ago, with the intent of giving it a good testing before i tossed it aside (like Skyfire, and xScope) to revert back to the default browser.

But this thing has really grown on me. The text reformatting (column text formatting when zooming) is right on par with the default browser. xScope text reformatting was horrible.

In the minimal time I've had to really sit down and use it, I've really seen nothing LACKING from it, that is in the default browser. Gestures is really nice, and the UI is well, beautiful.

Its looking like i MAY have after all, a browser replacement.

Lets hope i don't find something else later that'll nix it for me, and send me back to default again. =) (nothing against default tho, it gets the job done, and rather well to be honest.)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jerrycycle:
12 hours of use and really enjoy it. The volume scroll is a nice added feature :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] jlevy73:
I agree...I thought I would just laugh my way to uninstalling it but it's actually quite nice. Big improvement over recent versions of it
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] AbsoluteDesignz:
lol, I felt that way myself, thought it was gonna be like the original dolphin, skyfire, and xScope for me...but no...it is my default now.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] timothydonohue:
gonna give it a look see. thanks for the ups!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] erikiksaz:
Does anyone know how to hide/show the tabs from anywhere on the page?

The old dolphin browser would show the tabs when I double-tapped on the screen. Now it seems that I have to scroll to the left or right side of the screen and swipe quickly to get the tab popup.

Or does anyone know how to get to the top of the page quickly?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] travon802:
Are you sure about that? Do you have a file explorer app like Astro installed?

I don't really like the Default Zoom built into the framework of these new browsers (since Dolphin HD is just a modified version of the 2.1 Browser). It usually just doesn't work (like setting Close is actually zoomed out) or Close is too close/Medium is too far out.

EDIT: Played around with it and setting the text size to Huge is a workaround for some sites but it's not consistent.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] manfly9884:
I'm loving it. Been using it now for about 3 days with no problems.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] paulk_:
Just started using the browser, think it's petty good. Fixes my main complaint about the dolphin browser, which is that it doesn't display onemanga pages nicely in landscape view :P
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] stephen2529:
its not to bad actually. ive downloaded oper min, skyfire and dolphin and will be trying them all over the next few days. im looking for somthing to replace the desire default browser because im finding it crashes lately. mostly on this site.

opera is good and very fast but no flash and pinch zoom so im not sure ill keep it. skyfire isnt bad too but can you change the tabs on the home screen to your own bookmarks some how?

as for dolphin its a very pretty app but is the flash (light) support as good as the default browser?

not sure which ill choose in the end but i think its between dolphin and skyfire.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] paulk_:
That's weird, never had the stock browser crash on me before, and I surf this forum quite a lot.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Andrewtst:
Loving it and donate to remove those ad. ;)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
Tried it out and I think I'll be the only one to say I uninstalled it.

It's no match for the Desire default browser. :) It's almost the same, but a lot slower.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SiNJiN76:
I actually miss the TAB lines that were on the bottom of the screen. Flicking to the next tab...mixed feelings about that. Cool that it brings up a list of all the open tabs, but if you only have 2 tabs...more work (slower).
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] paulk_:
Does anyone have any idea how to use the read it later add on? I don't see any option anywhere to mark a page as read it later, and opening the add on simply says I don't have any pages saved.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] mutantblack:
using it for a day and I love it. The old dolphin was terrible but this one is a keeper.

So far I have Skyfire, opera mini, dolphin hd and stock. Let's see how they stand up against each other.

[Nexus One Themes and Apps] DreamScar:
I'm not digging the "HD" version at all atm. I love the original dolphin. This version is just an edited stock browser rather than its own thing like the original. Sure it looks prettier than the "SD" version but it's also missing the functionality of the older version, like the long press for zoom and page/link functions, and a friggin HOME button ffs. I also really dislike the swipe across for your tabs. I like swiping to quick switch much better. I'll be sticking with the original Dolphin for now (probably make a theme for it to pretty it up), but I'll keep HD installed just so aTrackDog can tell me when it gets updated.

Adblock Plus

At lifehacker.com there is a article about Dolphin HD browser which says among the other things:"There's also better RSS handling and subscriptions, and a new add-on gallery that's already sporting Read It Later, AdBlock Plus, and a few other Lifehacker favorites." (http://lifehacker.com/5535044/dolphin-browser-hd-is-a-great-android-browser-alternative)

I could not find any AdBlock Plus in the browser, is there any ?

Same thing here, I immediately checked. Although, there is a new update today, 1.1.0. Changelog says it fixes the auto run issues and removed the youtube downloader. Any new addons with this new version? I havent updated yet
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] paulk_:
Removing of the YouTube downloader is pretty sad, having the option of downloading it directly when at a YouTube page was pretty awesome.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] musashiken:
Yeah sad about the youtube downloader. I guess I'll just use a 3rd party app for that. Works the same anyway.

So far I'm still liking this, especially the bookmarks widget. It's kinda slow sometimes though, slight lags here and there. Hopefully they can make it speedier.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Pochemuchka1977:
I am using it too, but the AdBlock Plus (at least the firefox plugin version) is much superior because you can subscribe as well as add your own URLs to block ...
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] codito:
There are two little issues I have with Dolphin and if they get fixed I'll probably switch permanently.

1.) I hate the tabs, I like the little windows preview thing and they take up way too much room.

2.) Jesus H Christ ugly color scheme.

Small issues that should be easy to fix (especially with a new theme.) Hopefully the tab bar becomes optional in settings in a future update.

Hi all. I've searched and searched the forums and the net and can't seem to find anyone who has the same problem as me..

I've been wanting to change the touchflo/manila icons on my Touch Pro, and have tried all sorts of cabs and apps to do this, including Manila Cusomizer and MaxTTM as well as others..

What I've found is that with EVERY one, the icons on my touchflo/slider bar whatever you want to call it come up TOO BIG to fit into the space that they're supposed to, resulting in a cropped button/icon..

Surely someone must've had this problem and figured out the workaround? I'm guessing it's something to do with my VGA display and the icons are designed for XVGA or QVGA? I don't know.. All I know is that they look crap, when they should look sweet.. :P

Can anyone help?

I'm running Cap's Special ROM on a Touch Pro if that helps.

Thanks!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Rabangus:
Not exactly sure what you mean. Are you using MaxManila - I know there are problems with tab icons being cut off at the top with some ROMs using it? Are you able to post a screenshot so we can see exactly what the problem is?
