We're creating Special Edition ROM v1.2, the last one still based on the 'old' O2 3.17.03 ROM. We chose not yet to build based on PPC2003 because we feel many things will still change between now and the actual release, and we still need to learn a lot more in order to be able to make something which is a significant improvement over the official ROM, once it appears.
So what's new in v1.2 ?
PhonExt
[list:a7505d4dbf]Single handed dialing
per-contact and per-category ringtones
D9
Another means of dialing with one hand
imov Messenger Basic (formerly jabberCE)
jabber
ICQ

MSN
PocketCHAT
IRC
tdClock
Large clock displayed on Today screen
tdLaunch
A few rows of shortcut buttons on today screen
[/list:u:a7505d4dbf]
Futhermore we fixed a few remaining issues, and depending on space we may add a virus scanner (AirScanner), an alternative POP mail client (nPOP) , and maybe more.
We need your help:
In order to be able to add more providers in the AutoConfig dialog, we need snapshot files from people that have a working setup for their provider.
Here's the procedure:
1) Check http://xda-developers.com/incoming to see your provider isn't there yet.
2) Set up your machine like someone in your country is likely to want it (12/24 hr clock, timezone (pacific for US?) and other regional settings. Create the necessary connections (at least GPRS, WAP if possible), and name them something logical (such as "O2 GPRS Internet").
3) Make a snapshot using the ssnap.exe tool provided with the Special Edition ROM.
4) Extract the following keys with all their values and data from the snapshot to a text-file:
[list:a7505d4dbf][HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Clock]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Destinations\WAP Settings]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Providers\{EF097F4C-DC4B-4c98-8FF6-AEF805DC0E8E}\HTTP-{ADB0B001-10B5-3F39-27C6-9742E785FCD4}]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Providers\{EF097F4C-DC4B-4c98-8FF6-AEF805DC0E8E}\null-corp-{310E8001-80B9-C8BE-C333-EB6AB0026E3C}
For each connection, the following keys, where XXXX is the name of your connection:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\XXXX]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\XXXX]
5) Name the text file "Country - Provider" (e.g. "Germany-D1") and upload using ftp to xda-developers.com, username 'xdaftp' password 'xdaftp'.[/list:u:a7505d4dbf]
There's a file already there called 'Netherlands-O2' which can serve as an example.
You help will be much appreciated by others, and you'll be able to cold-boot v1.2 and have all your provider's settings right there. Deadline is this Sunday, July 6th, in the evening.

My Provider in Austria needs my Phone # (+43699xxxxxxxx) as User and a personalized password for GPRS Authentication.
My question:
is such a snapshot useful for the next release??

Please remove that annoying battery low bleep reminder.
After all its just another registry entry.

No, it's not. I guess users of this provider would need to set up GPRS themselves.

Sorry to quote myself...
Then again: you could just leave off the user and password values, and it would still be useful: i.e. provide apn, proxy (if applicable) and other settings. So yes, please send it anyway...
new rom
Hey, it also will be EXCELLENT if we can put our OWN LOGO (or picture) in the after RESET screen.
Dear XDA developer,
I already uploaded Thailand with AIS as the provider. There are other 2 providers in Thailand, which are DTAC and Orange. I will try to find them.
I wonder that some tools might be on your consideration in v1.2:
- Adobe Acrobat Reader
- TIFF file viewer (for viewing FAX file on our mail)
- Ephemeris for checking the Sun, Moon and Compass
- Ruler (I think this is cool, when you need to measure something but no ruler)
- Stop time for StopWatch
- FreqTune for checking the sound frequency
- Remote Display, CERDisp (Microsoft)
(All above is freeware)

Hi Jabber by mov software creates a lot of GPRS traffic as opposed to ICQ. Since both apps are freeware, I suggest you install both in the next release. What I would _really_ love is the pocket divx player which can also handle ogg vorbis and mp3. Definitely a better choice than the Windows Media Player (www.pocketmvp.com).
Installing VNC was an excellent idea!
This is a great place for info on the xda, my respects to y'all at xda-developers.com

:wink:
Also it would be nice to create a tool to change your operating logo on your XDA i.e. I’m using T-Mobile as my provider

Hi,
I have added the German-D1 settings...
just to let you know I had to choose two different Keys:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Destinations\Einstellungen WAP]
... Wap Settings is Einstellungen WAP in German Systems...Installed on an English 1.2 it should go in WAP Settings Key I would guess...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ConnMgr\Providers\{EF097F4C-DC4B-4c98-8FF6-AEF805DC0E8E}\null-corp-{FB2E8000-800B-849A-BC41-A56D8A2D7266}]
... I was not able to find the {310E8001-80B9-C8BE-C333-EB6AB0026E3C} in my German system, so I took the one with "Proxy"="new-corp:1743" line, as in you netherland "demo" file.
Let me know if this is useble or if I shall search something different...

What about the following Reg tweaks?
Low Battery Warning:
Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Notifications\{A877D663-239C-47a7-9304-0D347F580408}\
Create a String value named "Default" and set its value to "Low battery warning".
Now go to Start > Settings > Personal tab > Sounds & Notifications applet > Notifications tab, select "Low battery warning" in the "Select an event" drop-down list and you can customize it.
Disable startmenu animation
Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\Menu\
Change the "AniType" value from 6 to 0.
Display Daten and Time in titlebar
Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\
Create a binary value named "TBOpt" and set its value to "13 00 00 00"
Just my 2 cents

i found that the default icons in Total Commander point to \program files\... , but Total Commander is in the Windows dir.
for correct appearance of folders and zip-files i changed the following registry entries:

"Default"="\\windows\\cecmd.exe,-105"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ZIPArchive\DefaultIcon]
"Default"="\\windows\\cecmd.exe,-102"

Today I got a new MDA Compact (T-Mobile, German, Ext-ROM-Version: 1.01.125).
I synchronized about 1.500 contacts and the whole system went so slow, that I had to disable the contact synchronisation. Is that to much for the Magician?
It was no problem for my MDA II and MDA III.
Using the intellidialer is also awfull without any contacts. It needs more than one second to delete a dialed number.
Another annoing point is that the email attachements can only be outsourced to storage - not to the storagecard. Is that "normal" for the Magician?
Last but not least ist the calculator Missing. Its only the link and I could manage to make my own link to the calc.exe, but it seems that this software version is a bit buggy.
Do you have also problems like this?

If you installed all T-Mobile apps from Extended ROM, then you may run a bit short on RAM. Do a hard reset, and after you aligned the touchscreen, just before the MDAc starts installing programs, a soft reset. You will get a clean MDAc, and a freely accessible Extended ROM, from where you now can selectively install only those apps you really want.
Then try to install only those apps that are deeply connected to the system (mainly today plug-ins and stuff that gets launched automatically) into RAM, and all other apps to \Storage_Card.
Using the intellidialer is also awfull without any contacts. It needs more than one second to delete a dialed number.

If you mean the backspace button: this is due to the sound that is played every time you hit it. Disable the sounds for intellidialer, and backspacing will be much faster.

I do not know, but you can extend the Storage to 27MByte (not trivial, though), which should be big enough for a few attachments.

Never heard of this before. Are you sure it was neither in the Programs menu nor in the Start Menu directly?

Now I reduced my contacts and everything works quite well... So it had to to with the mass of contacts. I hope, that there'll be another rom update wich fixes this inconvenience...
Yes, I meant the backspace button - I hope a software update will fix this, too...
Is there a chance to set the path for storaage of mail attachements. Tweaking the "Storage" to a bigger sice may be a sollution, but I'd like to use my 512 MB storage card.
I looked mor than twice for the calculator. I inspected a second MDA Compact (also T-Mobile). The calculator was missing, too.
Bad Rom...
Hi MBastian,
looks like an Ösi could help you out of your calculator misery: :lol:
Go to your MDAs /Windows-directory (this can be done with the file explorer - opening the directory will take some time, as this is a biiiiig one). There should be a file named calc (with a lovely calc-icon :wink - that's your calculator!
So you should be able to make a shortcut wherever you want (start menu, programs folder, etc.).
HTH,
BGK
My calculator is working but there is no calc.exe in \windows
The shortcut I have is pointing to this target :

If it could help...

Open the email application. Go to Tools - Options. On the Storage tab you tick the box labelled "Store attachments on storage card". Done.
@BGK: Thanks for the Tip. I allready linked the Calc.exe. I was just wonderung, how buggy the new Rom is,
@Bamse: The problem is, that this option only allows to store the attachements at "storage" not "storage card". That sucks.
Buggy Rom...
Interesting, that german and austrian T-Mobile ROMs differ that much.
I'm using the original austrian T-Mobile ROM with which the device was delivered and haven't had any problems with it wheras I often read of problems with other buggy roms (lousy phone sound, etc.).
Although they have the same version number, they obviously differ in other ways except the language too. Strange, but true...
Greetings,
BGK
P.S.: ...but you're right - M$ calculator s*cks. They never enhanced that since their early versions of Windows CE (had most of them)...
I am currently using Larentius26 WM6 PRO Business Videocall, but I don't think this should be rom-specific.
The word autocomplete does not work anymore. I have already activated it in the Keyboard Input menu (Start: Settings: Input: Word Completion. I try to adjust the figures but it still doesn't work in any case). Soft-reset does not help.
As far as I understand it, the dictionary files in the \Windows\ folder: dicprob.0409.dat; statdict.0409.dat; mssp2.lex, are all there
Also, after a period of use, switching the input method becomes impossible.
Similar problem persists in the autofill contact name in the message composing window.
Major additional installed softwares include;
- Replacing original English font files with the one with English + Thai fonts (similar file names: tahoma.ttf & tahomabd.ttf).
- LingvoSoft Thai Keyboard
- Opera 8,60 (8,65 buggy + freezes)
- Pocket Informant (rev4 build869)
- Skype 2,2
- fring
- Risidoro Intent Manager (v11.1.7.1023)
- Battery Status (v1.04.203 beta4)
- Resco Explorer 2005
- Windows Live
- Live Search
This is otherwise a very good and stable rom. Not sure if the problem is rom specific, as I have found this problem in other non-Universal forums.
Anyone know how to deal with this issue, or any experience please advise.
Thanks a lot! Greatly appreciated!

Hello
First sorry for my bad english
I need 3G Dialer (Smart dialing) for the Trinity. I found many application, but don’t work well. I don’t find skin, but I find application in cab files. I now have a Smart Dialing (version 2.5 build 27526) without video call (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=354464).
Thanks
there is an utils in XDA called "search" ; try it
You can do this before post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396505&highlight=manilla
i know who is a search (i found you link many day before), but you look in the cab files, that you see, when in the (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=92201&d=1213295467) are ONLY bmp file (picture) = this is a "SKIN" for the dialpad (no application smart dialer)
cab file application MUST contain *.dll files (smartdialing.dll, SmartDialing.dll.0409.mui, phcanhtc.dll ....etc...)
when aplication is 3G video call, that cab file MUST contain "HTC3GVT.dll"
[APP]Yota Phone - Yota Center [27 January] VGA & WVGA updated
See post below
This is a translation of the original Yota Contacts application that comes with the HTC Quarts (MAX 4G) phone on the Yota network in Russia. Several people helped translate this from russian by hexediting the dialer application or translating the language xml in the skin. Cloudyfa released the first translated dialer.
Below you will find cabs for the YotaContacts application as well as the Yota Dialer. The two cabs below ONLY works for VGA devices (Touch Diamond and Touch Pro).
NONE OF THESE CABS WORK WITH CDMA DEVICES. This means the Verizon Touch Pro, the Sprint Touch Diamond and Touch Pro, etc
Please install these cabs to INTERNAL storage, not your storage card.
Link to mediafire download for Yota Contacts + Yota Dialer > http://www.mediafire.com/?mjiy0jlkmmu Updated Jan 26 12:01 PST
Link to TF3D icon skinned version of above cab. http://www.mediafire.com/?wionn0hzwzn
Link to Yota Contacts Only without the Yota Dialer > YozyCloud YotaContacts
If you're having any installation problems with these cabs (or the ones below this post) install SDKCERTS.CAB from the following link http://www.4shared.com/file/37343459/78d124a5/sdkcerts.html. SDKCERTS installs special certificates to allow applications that aren't signed by microsoft(or signed with the SDK certificates) to run properly.
------------------------------------------
Benefits:
- Yota Contacts completely replaces the built in windows Contacts application.
- New dialer that's much faster then the built in dialer.
- Favorites groups
- Better onscreen keyboard
Minuses:
- No easy VoiceMail access (holding down 1 doesn't work). The "New Voicemail" link on TF3D's homescreen also doesn't work.
- No "face down mute" feature.
- No "bluetooth on/off switch" while in a call.
- No "Slide to Answer".
- No "Company Directory" lookup if you're hooked up to a company Exchange server.
- This app doesn't display special characters in the contact names.
- S2U2's caller ID functions HAVE to be disabled (they conflict with the Yota Dialer)
- If you have a password lock on the phone, it will impede your ability to answer the phone quickly, because you will have to input the password before you can hit "Answer" on the screen.
- No video calling or "Videoshare" (yet)
Please keep in mind that none of the people involved in translating this application, actually developed it. This came from the HTC Quartz, which is a WiMax phone operating on the Yota network in Russia. Therefore, any requests you might have, to add this or that, CAN NOT, and I can't stress this enough, CAN NOT, even be considered. The reason ? We don't have the source code for the applications included in this package. All we can do is make graphical skin changes or translations to other languages... to a point. Also, the keyboard can't be extracted either, it's an integral part of YotaContacts.exe.
One more thing to remember is this app takes up quite a bit of RAM, which on a Diamond, Touch Pro, Touch HD, etc is not really an issue, since we have plenty of RAM. On a QVGA device, you should consider this before installing it, ESPECIALLY if you only have 64 Megs of RAM to start with.
There's several versions of this floating around, the version I posted here has the green dial key on the "dialer" screen. There's also versions found below that have this removed, in order to increase the area above the dialpad where you can see more than one contact. You will have to use the hardware dial button to make phone calls.
The application takes a few seconds (at least) to start the first time you use it after you turn the phone on. It's recommended to either put a shortcut to YotaContacts.exe in the startup folder, or after you run it, keep it running in the background, so it instantly comes on when you need it later.

ok i made some cabs with my latest VGA skin
these ones also have registry entries so it changes the default contacts app and also on your TF3D the Left Soft Key goes to Yota Contacts
for the latest version see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3222587&postcount=504
*teorouge to change the language, just extract the YotaContactsSkin.zip and go into languages, u'll find an xml file there
copy the eng.xml file and rename it to ita.xml, then translate the words and save
to activate the italian language u then go to Yota Contacts\Config\config.xml and set the language to ita

Yota Center
The program allows a quick start of all of the standard applications as well as the programs that the user has installed. It also forms a catalog of programs available for installation, helping the user to select and quickly install the programs that are needed. The Center checks for and informs the user about the updates available for the programs that are installed.
Works great on touch pro, thanks

Not that I can see. I have two ROM dumps and I don't see the files in either one, or anything remotely close to it. I'm starting to think that some things might be inside manila? Anybody want to attempt and package up the TF3D for the Yota and convert it from Russian to English?
I looked into it some more and I found out why we can't find anything in the official ROMs. The only thing in the official is that YotaLoader application that downloads all these addons (YotaContacts being one of them) AFTER the ROM is installed and the device is all setup. I guess when you're on a WiMAX network you can afford to do that, bandwidth wise. Hehe So we're SOL until YOTA decides to provide the missing MUI files in an "over the air" download, AND some smart russian on the Yota network will be kind enough to share it with the rest of us
p.s. Everybody having "issues" with the dialer and what ever.. READ the thread. There's several versions of this posted and some of the HAVE the dialer while other don't. For example, my version (VGA) has the Yota dialer, and even though it's in russian, it doesn't bother me at all.
p.s.s. For Alltheway... People already ported TF3D fromt he Quartz(Max4G), but it doesn't differ from the regular TouchHD version... so not much to gain from that....:/
