TouchFLO?!?! - Mogul, XV6800 General

I'm sure there is a thread out there already that explains this so I apologize in advance I just couldnt find it. I was just wondering if there was a link that's got a detailed instructions (for a newbie like me) on first-time installation of the touchflo cube and the homescreen and things like that. I know I can figure it out but I just need a little help. I will definately donate 2 whoever helps me get it all right. I was also wondering, I run the Alltel version of the 6800 which has WM5...I'm not sure if that makes a difference or not. Please Help

I run the Alltel 6800 but with WM6. This is the one that I use that works perfect. Last I remember you just install it and it works.

My Wing Sucks Whats Up With This Slow Device

Ok, I have my Wing and im running touch it... its cool but this device is still slow... i have it over clocked and pagepooled... my brother has 8125 and its so much faster and i started to think that it was something wrong with my phone... Is anyone else having this problem? imean i touch the screen and it does not respond in realtime it sometimes takes up to 3 or 4 seconds... when writing messages it takes forever its just got to the point where it is very irritating... is there anything i can do to get my wing up to par where it wont seem sooooo slow?
Im not sure. Im overclocked and have pagepool at 6 and mine runs pretty quick.
Sounds like you may be overclocking it a little too far. Try lowering the OC and see if that helps.
Try installing a new Rom.
My T-mobile Wing used to be EXTREMELY slow with the stock T-mobile Rom on there ... it would always freeze and give me that little round hourglass thing all the time for the dumbest crap ... like checking new SMS msgs...but the moment I installed the PDAVIET v14 rom on there, the difference in speed was instantaneous. Afterwards, I installed batterystatus and overclocked it to 273mhz, and it runs like a charm. Installing the PDAVIET rom was the best thing I ever did, and I don't know how I survived this long without it!
^^^ thanks... how did you ever get v14 to install? i thought there were problems getting it onto the wingand it was missing programs...
My friend helped me do it, so unfortunately I don't have the exact process. From my understanding, you have to get past the CID check in order to install it since it's not an official tmobile rom.
Yeah mine is kinda slow too, do you really recomend installing that Touchflow thing (i dont know much about anything, just got my wing yesterday).

TouchFlo is just a specific application that's originates from the HTC Touch device... but people have ported it over into Rom's built for most htc devices.
Here is a demo of the touchflo, so you can see what it is.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ8TQ9Rr_7E
The touchflo cube itself is pointless to me ... it's just something that came out to make it 'prettier' and IMO it's just a gimic aimed towards the iPhone. I DO like that you can scroll now without the use of the scrollbars... and I wouldn't be able to live without that now that I have it.
I DO reccommend installing a 3rd party Rom on your phone, and you currently have the option of 2 roms.
There are other roms out there, but you want to make sure you install one that is specifically made for the wing, bc if you don't you're going to run into problems such as, the keys on the keyboard not lining up. The Tmobile wing is the HTC "atlas" which is a variant of the HTC Herald. The keyboard on the Wing (atlas) is different than the one of the herald, so when you start using certain keys/symbols, you get something else.
There are currently 2 3rd party Roms that are made specifically for the Wing , and they are
Touch-IT
and
PDAVIET
I am currently running the PDAVIET v14 rom and you will be surprised as to how much faster your wing will run just by installing a NON tmobile rom.... on top of that, you can overclock your wing with a program called batterystatus which will overclock the processor from the default 201 to whatever you want. Suggestion, Dont' overlock to more than 273-286 or so, bc your wing will crash.... but you can find some posts on this site where users discuss their clocking speeds.

The Touch-IT rom final just got released today, and is available for download here.
Touch-IT for The Wing Full and Lite Ed.
I am actually in the middle of installing this Rom as I am typing, but I have heard really good things about it ... so I am anxious to try it out.
I suggest you take a look at Tyler's guide to Wing Modding.
Newbies Guide to Herald
and also take a look at the Herald WIKI page which may help answer a lot of questions you may have.

If you have any other questions, you know you can count on everyone here to help you out. I personally won't mind helping you out with any questions you may have.
Wow thanx a lot, really helped me out a lot.
Not a lot of people will go all out like that to a newbie, so i really appreciate it .
Not a prob bro. Let us know if there's anything else we can help you with. That's the beauty of this place ... everyone helps each other... and I enjoy helping out, bc people help me out when I need it.

Hey Duprade,
Since I ran into a lot of problems bricking/unbricking the last time that I installed a new rom, I don't want to rush through it this time. I am kind of in the middle of the two roms that you said earlier, the touch_it and the pdaviet 14. Could you update us with your experience with both and which one you recommend personally. i am kind of leaning towards the pdaviet since i don't want some programs that come with the touch_it but i would like to hear someone more experiences comments comparing them as well. thanks in advance.... by the way my device is locked does that mean that i can not install the pdaviet v14 i thought the issue was resolved?
Totaly Lost Man! Help!!!!
I am currently running the PDAVIET rom. I was experimenting with the Touch-IT rom, but I am used to the PDAVIET rom and since I use my phone for work and all my work correspondence comes directly to my phone, I have to have it in working order at all times.
I would reccommend that you install both ROMs and test them both out to see which one you like best, because until you try them, you won't know which one YOU will like best.
If you follow the link I posted for the PDAVIIET rom, just follow the directions for the installation that I posted.
The Touch-IT rom installs using the ASERG method, which you can find the directions on installing it when you download the necessary files.
Okay, without flashing a new rom, and having to reinstall all my programs (speaking of that, Sprite backup didn't work for me, different story-comments?)
Is there any way to speed it up? Disable startup processes?
I've had to reset mine about 2-5 times in 48 hours...P I E C E O F C R A P...(not really a POS, just pissing me off)

there has always been probelms with this program, a shame cuz I heard they implemented a new feature allowing you to restore even after switching roms
Is there any way to speed it up? Disable startup processes?
for sure, just navigate to \windows\startup...a simple search of what is in that folder will let you know what you use and what you can delete.

A new favourite tool of mine since having the herald is sktools. I never really used it before but there is an application associated with sktools that allows you to imitate hibernation of the device which will bring your program memory to just below what it was after boot up.
hope that helps....maybe one day i'll even make a vanilla rom (hopefully someone will make one quiker) so that these problems with it becoming slow disappear.
cheers
Now the recent problem I've been having is that when the device slows down, and freezes up, it unfreezes and theres a part of the screen that seems to be "stuck" in every app I use, until I restart...WtF?
EDIT: Oh, and SKTools looks good, but I'm not paying for programs. I'm broke just from buying the Herald
Ok...so i have done quite a bit of reading on this forum for the past couple months. I purchased a Wing from tmobile and absolutly love it. I have since then changed to the touchflo rom and installed the battstatus and it runs like a champ, couldnt ask for more.
hey i'm new to this stuff and i tried installing a new rom but my phone is now bricked i believe, anyway to unbrick it?
That's why you are a real gem of this place. I see you always answer people's questions (many answers could be found by a simple search) promptly and patiently, including mine.
I'm waiting to get a good deal on a 4gb+ memory card, then I will try to install the PDAVIET rom, looks thrilling to me.
Thanks bro!! If you are in the same city as mine (Milwaukee), I'd buy you drinks.

Thank you for the comments.
Regarding your Rom, I'd actually suggest trying out ITJE's TouchIT 2.3 over the PDAVIET Rom at this time.

Help Me! Need Touchflo On Ppc6700 W/ Wm6

Ok I can't find the right program to get the Touchflo with cube action on my Sprint PPC6700 which I just recently upgraded to Helmi's WM6. It's either I can't seemed to find the right one, or I don't know how to follow instructions. I keep getting this black screen ever after reboot. If anyone can point me in the right direction as to which program would work best on a WM6 Sprint PPC6700, I would really appreciate it. A more simpler Touchflo program would be great because I've seen some on here that you have to go to different threads just to get the complete touchflo on your system. If not than I'll just go with whatever you suggest. Thanks again.
Ok, read post 186 of this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328010&page=19.
Gives you step by step instructions. I have the exact same device with Helmi C's WM6 Rom and it works perfectly.
Thanks!
I appreciate the quick response. It works pretty good but sometimes it slows my system down. Is yours doing the same? You wouldn't happen to know of one that doesn't use flashlite and comes pretty close to the original? I like it though and will keep it until something better comes up. I do agree with everyone else I wish the bottom part wasn't there. Oh and does anyone know where I can download the Mediaminihum file? When I tried the other programs it wanted me to delete this in my startup menu. Do I even need this file? Thanks
Please DO NOT create three threads in three different forums with the same question! Cross posting is unnecessary and it just clutters up the forums.

help i need somebody xv6900

hi im extremely new to this and i need a someone to mentor me on how to hack my phone. i have a xv6900 i just found out that i can unlock gps and use wm6.1 what else can this phone do. someone please help sorry i do not know the language need help with that to.
welcome
First off welcome. Your phone can do alot of things. You need to do some research before anyone will really help you. There is alot of stuff on here and on ppcgeeks. Just do a google search of ppc and you will get there. your phone is called the touch or sometimes called vogue. if you want to release the phone you need to get an unlocker and then flash a custom ROM. I have never done it but it seems easy. just be careful to read read read before you do it cause it can brick your phone. there are lots of fun aps that work with your phones oem rom. just look around and play with it. your phone has gps but verizon has it locked down for now so you will need to unlock to get gps. your phone does not have wifi.

thanx il get right on to it

Got My New HTC Touch Vogue

Alright people, I got my Vogue today off ebay, everything is all and well. I did the whole Clear Storage setting and now have a factory Vogue. Now I need yall's help, is there anything I need to do to make it better such as updating and if I need to get some programs and ect. I'm kinda new to this and not sure if there are any updates and such, So please help me :] It would be greatly appreciated. Also if possible please include a link where necessary.
Welcome to xda! You have the best device, in my opinion, for customizing/hacking.
Link for everything www.forum.xda-developers.com
Grab a 12-pack, and browse around, you will have a headache after seeing just a percentage of what you can do.
Thanks. Last night I was on the SprintUsers forum and saw how easy flashing the ROM to Rev A with GPS was and did it and well, I have GPS now haha. Is this like the only "official update" for the vogues? Also I use Sprint service.
Yeah, the WM v6.1 from HTC is the only official Sprint update for Vogue. But there are lots of custom ROMs available. Plus, there's a kitchen that allows you to cook up your own ROM. Check out PPC Geeks, where there's lots of action in their Vogue forum. Well, there used to be. It's still active, but taking a back seat to Diamond and Touch Pro. But Pro is not as small and lightweight and Diamond can't take microSD card, so Vogue's still #1 in my book. Here's a link:

Thanks. Are there any guides around here on changing the theme/shell or whatever it is called? Also I was in the theme/shell section in TheChampJT's sig and was wondering, do you need the certain programs that the shells are underneath?

Some questions for the smart people

hi guys,
firstly, my phone apparently hates ROMS. each one i've attempted to install has not worked. don't ask why, or what i'm doing, it just hates them. which brings me to my first question (may be very, very stupid), are there and CAB files (it likes those ) that in effect, give you a different layout? eg. windows mobile 6.5 etc? I'm very tired of 6.1.
also, PLEASE someone tell me if there is a way (again, CAB file) to get the weather icon on the today screen? this may be a moot question if the above one has the answer i'm looking for
thanks guys!
oops, one more question - how can i disable the icons of programs i've previously used on my start menu???
