Yeah well with the 23xxx series, I was really satisfied withe the NRG with the bottom start menu but there were a lot of things that glitched here and there. Like for some reason, it took me forever to try to get rid of the keyboard once it came up in total commander or something like that.

This is what I have stuck to the longest so far. I have little things that bother me a lot, thats why I have been flashing a lot. Along with using the Titanium theme I use an app from the Marketplace called "Home Screen Customizer" which lets you remove and reorganize your ascreen and add an "Apps" page. I also threw in a Facebook and MS Office tab from the second link. But I think my final decision is cooking this ROM in the link with some apps and games from other ROMs. :D I'm not looking forward to all the work though. haha.

If you want the start menu in the left corner (windows 6.5.3 or 6.5.5) And the taskmanager linked with the start button, you should really check out the valkyre roms again.

Espescially this version valkyrie.ftp v6.5.23115tr2.5 25th april wm6.5.5 without extra tabbs. This is one of the fastest and most stable roms you are going to find here for the rhodium.

You said you didn't like that rom, what didn't you like about it? If don't like the layout, you always change it yourself. But if you want a really stable and fast rom, you should check it out again.

Ark's Rhodium roms are my absolute favorite.

http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1730&page=1

i have used EnergyROM since February (Thats when i got my Rhodium) but Ark's roms are the fastest, cleanest, and overall best for battery life I have found. I love it. I highly highly highly recommend it if you like the stock look but a custom feel with a super fast shot of adrenaline in there!

If you get the HTC Messaging Client one then I suggest you install the newer version of it via CAB (if i find it, i'll post it here) because the new 2014 revisions of the HTC Messaging Client are faster-- i mean, if you text ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] khoyifish:
its not so much the layout as the little things that bug me. I tried that built you suggested and it was nice but for some reason it always sent me a confirmation text saying that my last text I sent out was sent. I tried disabling it when I went into Message Options- then uncheck the box for delivery confirmation. I posted on the Valkyrie thread about it maybe there is a fix for it. I tried different styles but I like the standard threaded SMS (similar to the 6.1 style).

and shishir95, I tried to look at that ROM you suggested and I had to make a htcpedia account and I did not get a confirmation of my account yet.. I did look at some of the ROMs and apps and im awaiting my confirmation now

So I am new to these forums, and new to winmo devices in general(coming from sidekick platform). I have browsed through some threads but still have no clear place to begin. My goal is to customize my brand new touch pro 2 and learn more about my device.

If anyone would be as kind to point me to specific threads on where to begin or have any advice of their own it will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
Keep in mind there are a few sub forums for the touch pro 2...

You might want to give the themes and aps sub forum a good read. In there right at the top you'll find this thread Software worth installing on the TP2 *Continuously Updated, links in thread* [MAR 8]

That's definatly a good place for you to start.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] redpoint73:
Reading through the CABs and Tweaks thread is a good start too. The real potential of the TP2 isn't really unlocked until you start tweaking, and the ability to tweak/customize is one of the best things about Windows Mobile. Read through the thread, see what customizations sound good to you, and try them out. Don't be afraid to tweak. Most any of the customizations can be uninstalled. Or at the last resort, you can hard reset to get to factory settings.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daryelv:
NBH is a packaging format. Basically it's "most" of a ROM... The windows guys use them all the time in the kitchen's to create RUU's which are flashed to the phone using a utility. We flash files to the phone using .img files... if you look inside our RUU releases, you'll see boot.img, data.img, system.img, etc.

Here is the issue...

I am trying to downgrade a STOCK installed 2.1 Sprint Hero to 1.5 so we can install a custom rom and flash to another CDMA carrier.

The phone was flashed and ROOTED but the customer installed the UPDATE...

Here we are now...

Unable to do anything...

I have downgraded other HTC Android devices before using the .NBH file.

Example: HTC G1 using a dreaimg.nbh on a fat32 memory card in bootloader mode.

I'm trying the same with the Sprint HERO... any ideas?

I used Freshkitchen to push file back becuase i couldnt do it myself via adb and here i am now. Why cant i open or install this apk. is it becuase of its location in the system? i sure could use a little friendly help. pm or [No1ukno1357 at aol thnks. If i even posted this in right place.

Is there a way to ply the TP2 into a desktop USB running XP and have the ability to access the storage card or the device? Do not want to Install Active Sync. Maybe just want to copy some files or something without having to remove the storage card.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
If you plug the device into your computer, you should see a selection screen that gives you the option for ActiveSync, Disk Drive, and Internet Sharing. Simply choose the second option and the MicroSD card will be mounted in Windows as a removable disk. If this dialog does not pop up, go to Start>Settings>Connections>USB to PC and choose the Disk Drive mode. The only limitation of this is that your PC can only access the MicroSD (not the internal NAND), and the device cannot access the MicroSD while it is mounted in Windows. However, file transfers will be noticably faster than with ActiveSync, and ActiveSync will not actually be needed to access the device. HTH
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aaron McCarthy:
......Amen :p
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] thebrenda:
Thanks. I had forgotten about the USB Connections settings and I had it set to always ActiveSync. Changed it to "ask" and I can access the storage card. Would love to look at the file on the device, but guess you need activesync or some software on the desktop for that. thanks again.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
You meant to say "Plug and Pray" instead of "Plug and Play"?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] forehand:
I've tried checking and unchecking the ask option, but I do not get the popup when I plug in my usb cable. I can't activeSync. The only hints that the computer even recognizes it is the ding of plugging it in/out and "PocketPC USB Sync" shows up under Mobile Devices in device manager.

EDIT: I can get it to work as Disk Drive, just not as ActiveSync.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] thebrenda:
do you have activesync (windows mobile device center?? for vista) software installed on you desktop?

i run xp and have activesync 4.5 on my desktop. i had problems but then noticed my mini usb cable was not secure. i have my device set to charge when connected usb and the charge light was not always amber. found a better cable and used a different usb on my computer (the problem was with the connection to the desktop). that has fixed all my activesync problems.

but i have had problems in the past with the dialog box not popping upasking if i want active sync or disk drive. some people say there tp2 has a third option os internet sharing, mine does not. try a soft reset, check the cable, uninstallin and reinstall the desktop software and see what happens. oh yeah, what are your setting under activesync on your device, in programs?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] stevedebi:
Which OS are you using?

Also, there is a setting in the communications setup - USB to make the Activesync connection slow or fast. Try the slow setting.

at some point when you plugged in your device, did you happen to select the option that says "never ask again" if so, you will get no notification that it's plugged in.

This is my source guy and gals!!! :D

please read this entire post. thank you :D

basically i built this from the Eris source, i only made *-board and gevice specific files that would enable it to compile and boot on the HTC Heroc. my goal from day one was to do this and now ive managed to pull it off. :eek: anyhow what i do is for everyone and i always show my work. on this OP i will up date as i make changes, to inform the community of the kernel source status. as of first commit all hardware works and the kernel functions just like the one HTC compiled for our 2.1 release. although i have made a few cleaning up changes and managed to fix our audio issue as far as i know. so in a since this source is better then HTC/Sprints kernel. link below:

GoDmOdE

Commit Log

Wed May 19, 2010 -First commit = Fully functional 2.6.29 source for the HTC Heroc + minor clean ups and audio issue resolved.

Wed May 19, 2010 -AOSP -synaptics-fix = synaptic touch drivers were modified by HTC to help with input to ime app and sense. i reversed those changes to allow for devs to use the kernel in AOSP builds

Wed May 19, 2010 -Overclocking-added-for-good-measure-:P = Overclocking to freqs above 528mhz

Wed May 19, 2010 -added-auto-detect-for-setcpu = Setcpu will now detect all availible freqs automagic

Thu May 20, 2010 -GSM-HeRo-Support = support for the GSM HERO (thanx goes out to Behnaam for all his testing and workig with me on it)

ALL CHANGES, IDEAS AND THOUGHTS ARE WELCOMED. IF U DECIDE TO NAB THE SOURCE AND MAKE UR OWN TREE, PLEASE DO AS GITHUB SUGGESTS AND FORK MY TREE. THIS MAKES THINGS EASIER FOR ALL OF US AND ENABLES U TO EASILY PULL CHANGES FROM MY TREE, AND VICE VERSA. THIS IS A COMMUNITY KERNEL. AS A COMMUNITY WE CAN BUILD A BAD ASS KERNEL. SO LETS ALL NOT BE GREEDY AND FOLLOW MY LEAD. SHOW AND SHARE UR WORK.

Thank you guys for the support :D

Thanks for keeping my OCD overclocked!:D :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] tkirton:
Yes...but why would you want to. The moment you update using the DCUpdater, it's going to overwrite your boot.img back to whatever Damage uses.

Also, the A2SD will break on DamageControl if you do that. He's using dc.filesystem.ready to stop the init.rc so that A2SD can run. Put any other boot.img on top of DamageControl and you won't be able to boot (everyone else uses cm.filesystem.ready property to control the A2SD).

What you would have to do is replace the A2SD with either CyanogenMod's version or Darktremor version. Or, you'll have to break apart the boot.img and edit the init.rc. Not fun if you don't know what you are doing.

If you are going through all that trouble, just go flash FreshToast or DarchDroid.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] tkirton:
Okay..well, my post tells you what to do. Either swap the A2SD program or edit the init.rc not to use Damage's dc.filesystem.ready and use CyanogenMod's version (cm.filesystem.ready).

Guarantee if you don't do either one of those, you will stall on boot. Already had to fight this issue on Darktremor A2SD, so I'm talking from experience.

Is there any chance that you could compile a kernel for freshtoast based on your v65 source. I can boot zens rom based on this version but not with the v89 kernel. Im trying to diagnose as to why I can never get any of the OC roms based on your newest kernel to boot.

I wasn't sure if this is just something you could throw together will quick, and if not I can try later but I don't have a linux box and am not too well versed in linux.

Thanks again
