Ready to test Pawel062 ! and thx in advance for your work!

Ready and very willing to test when you have something testable.
Good luck!

wow. sry i made a spelling mistake. i did say it was based on bepe's latest rom which is 19209 but nice catch anyway. fixed in the first post. thanx. there will be the same languages as bepes rom since im using his kitchen. the different versions and whats included in them might change.
thanx to everyone for being patient and understanding. at this point im doing 2 roms at the same time. athena and polaris. athena is only wwe with lite/full versions and thats it. polaris will be different languages and more versions with different apps in each of them so the polaris rom is more work.

Hi,
But we can see the new baby when?

ZzZzZzZz.... ;-)

Waiting them to probe Spanish version!!!!

just a little screen and some specification to make the buzz grow up

bepe since i talk with him every day i know is busy working on something. dont know if he will be working on roms but of course i will be making a rom with his kitchen and im sure he'll give me all the stuff he would of used for his rom anyway(latest apps i mean). i'll be sure though to ask him tommorow since i know he is sleeping now if he will be releasing anything new.

so,people bought you polaris in order to make a rom and you will give a rom same with bepe's?
this is the reason that we wait for so much time, amazing.

Wow, you can just never please some people.
Isn't it a good thing that they are building on each other's work? No point reinventing the wheel over and over; two heads are better than one!

Then build your own rom if you know it so good. Almost every rom builder uses parts of someone else his rom. Anyway building a "Good" rom isn't easy so please stop sending this kind of messages.

He is just ranting out his disappointment.
He paied for 2 phone, 1 of them produced good results while the other produced nothing.
In the meanwhile bepe released fabulous ROM without asking donations (and he got even more donations than Polaris Project, and this should make some PM think)
Aserg release a superb ROM wit switchable services
Swtos released one of the first ROM, very nice
Udk, proud of his tytnII ROM, produced one of the best round ever.
i will be very glad if all this cookers work together in the PP
Now the polaris project will use the same kitchen as bepe's.
Bepe's ROM has many bugs. I dont mind if the PP is based on bepe's ROM, but plz, give us a ROM without bugs (and also clean and fast)
Take all the time u need PP

And the worst of all is, that e.g. geomall even did not donate
one cent to the PP, so far I can see
So what, dude ?! IMO you guys should veeeery quietly "leech" the
ROM whenever it is avaiable and not complaining things for that you
didn't do anything to support development
Of course just my 2c
Olioaglio

so,everybody here believes that the right way to make a rom is first to take money and after 4 months make the rom?
and not the way bepe-swtos-udk-panosa-aserg and others do
I am complicated to believe that,but if is that you want there is no problem with me
be sure i will not use this great project,i will use my rom(very easy) or others rom and i will donate.i did that many times
the only thing i don,t like is the behavior...........

Orange SPV M700

Sorry for my ignorance, but i am a bit lost as to which ROm to use.
I have an orange spv m700, and want to retain GPS etc, but want WM6.
Can any fine gent or lady point me in the right direction ?

You can use any of the ROM's on here. I have an M700 and have used various ROM's, currently using Ervius but also find FinixNover to be very good. You need to find what you want from your ROM and choose accordingly.

FinixNover IS WORKING ON MY M700 FINE
with tomtom
give it a try...it will suprise you

I really don't want to start an argue here!
First:
There is nothing personal and far from being disconsideration, more like (see below)
Second:
It's a positive, constructive criticism. It might as well be my personal opinion, we're free to have one! (but take a look at the posts in your thread and see for yourself because, see below)
Third:
Cooks usually offer support for their work in the respective thread, so I believe you should do that more often for the users giving you their trust and using your work.
Fourth:
I wouldn't call disconsideration an opionion from someone who tried to offer support while you were missing.
So, watch your words as they can be a killer sword sometimes.

indeed i agree with him....
take a look on faman's rom some are full of bugs and some are goods, but even if he stop developing rom, every french trinity owner respect him for his work
your rom have bug at this time but there is also a lot of fresh thing in it (if your rom were **** no one would download it btw)...
just keep do your best and improve it, it's the way it should be
(and by the way it every rom were perfect the version should always be 1.0 lol)

3rd: what is your use of telephone there is as much rom as some cooker and use...

Anyone has any idea when will the OFFICIAL CRUISE WM6.1 be released??

Hi,
All the "official" versions does not seem to really official ones there are too many bugs that remind of a cooked ROM
does HTC really going to publish ROM WM6.1 for Polaris?? when??

uh yeah HTC confirmed that they are working on a new ROM with WM6.1, and it will be released any time now..

ahah, you think that this ROM it's a fake?! how can you say this?

well, when I flash that rom, unmodded, My startbutton and my screen is messed up, just like in several builds that both I and others has ported. This goes for polaris, herald and kaiser.
If I replace certain files in sys with ones from original wm6.0 rom (polaris), that problem goes away. Same if I make a rom for Kaiser..I take this file from the official build and replace in the ported one, the problem go away.
This issue is well known with newer ports. I really doubt HTC would release a such obvious flaw (But then again..I would not be surprised either)
I might be wrong in beliving its a fake, but I really dont belive its the final product. I dont know what source you get the rom from, and I can "eat my words" if im wrong.
I wanna add that I dont question your honesty UDK, not at all. Cause I have had my share of supply of official builds, that has turned up to be fake.

udk and itje
Gosh, if Norway and Switzerland work together, then a bomb will come out of it.
Not your opinion?
LOL

@itje: Unfortunately, this is the final release and yes, does not works well, it's run very slow and there are some lag.. the ITA version is much slower than the WWE version, but I repeat, these ROM are not fake, there is also a RUS, GER and SPA version with the same core and OEM, are all fake? I think no

hello,
Can we have a French one PLZ

Where do you find this ROM ? Have you special access on HTC club ? have you a friend who works for an operator or HTC?

If you think it is a fake rom, why not go to the HTC site and see if an official rom is available... I would do this however I have an O2 Orbit not official HTC cruise!

Both you and me can make multilanguage based on same core and OEM.
Slow and lag..all official roms I have seen has slowness and lagging.. So I didnt base my doubts on that.
Its more the booting issues that makes me wonder. But hey, I am man enough to say I was wrong, so im not gonna sit here and go on fight for something that I cant prove.
Either its this or that, we'll just see when the official hits the support pages at HTC, if it has the same issue, then we know if its the final official build or not that is here with us now

I don't think they are fake, since they are signed and flashable without HardSPL. But if they are the final release or some test/preview we don't know until they are posted on the web.
They have been available for some time already, if they indeed are the final build, why are they still not put on htc.com?
Perhaps they are going to re-package udK's Syrius or Itjes latest and release those instead.The Polaris user group would be much happier then

Spanish ROM
I´ve installed the spanish rom and if I use the original SPL it gets changed by a new one with version POLA100/3.130000/CPLD-2.
I´ve never seen that on a cooked rom.

Hi,
in my opinion, this is the first and last update from HTC for POLARIS

Agree totally with you. A device such as ours last for a year. Why do you want HTC people to devote time on present and past devices ? They have already announced new generations to come within the next few months.
Still, I think my Polaris will still be useful until such time a much much better PDA comes to light.
Besides, take away XDA-developers and some other sites, do you think the manufacturers will have more creative minds? No sir, people like you and other
guys alike itje and udk are their main contributors for good ideas. Our forums are read daily by all manufacturers.
Keep it up

Is the Official German o2 release of wm 6.1 that much different than HTC version aside from not having the HTC homepage, etc..?:

Yes... with 6.1, the Polaris just becomes a more stable version of itself, with some enhancements -- more of what it should've been upon release. Will definitely hold us over until WM7, at which point it'll be a good time to get a newer device

I think the reason they don't post it on the web is because not all languages are ready yet. When they post it every language should be available or there will be another problem, right ?
For now I'm using wwe (waiting for portuguese) and it works flawlessly. Ok, I don't have manilla but all radio function work, I've got voip working, I can use wmplayer with htc home (so my calls don't get everything malfunctioning while using bluetooth), and I got portuguese keyboard working (registry tweak needed). So I think it's probably the real deal. And let's face it if they released a upgrade with manilla would you buy the new touch for 600€ while you can get a polaris for 400€ nowadays? So we will be stucked with a stripped version of wm6.1 or if you look on the bright side at least is wm6.1 and stable.

Here is the TIME for Official WM6.1 on htc.com ???
I think the TIME is coming NOW !!! Because the link now not available, but only the Cruise Software site !!! I hope sooooo

Swype V3.19.20.20.6343 on TP2!

Please see message #141

THANK YOU! So much. Can't wait to try.

very fun to use, takes a bit of getting used to at first entering words but you soon begin to pick up speed and accuracy!

Haha, I would be using the term "legit" very loosely if I agreed with you. If this was "legit", then all the cooked ROMs would be "legit". And since HTC and M$ hasn't seriously cracked down on them, then they have to be legit!
Nonetheless, Swype works great. I really like the size of the keys in landscape. I wish the default landscape keyboard was of this size (with the space bar on the bottom rather than on the side, of course).

sounds good enough for me!
and yea the landscape keyboard is quite good to use

It was quite good and interesting.. although wonder if there is any support for other languages aswell.. for example norwegian and dutch

I've never heard of this before, but I just-now installed it -- it's quite cool and works amazingly well!
From the guy who co-invented T9 text input...

I'll give it a try although it does seems a bit complicated to use but from what user say so far it works good and much faster then typing...does XT9 work with this?

Thats a cool KB I have a question though, does anybody know whether we can make the TP messages and all backgrounds within the system BLACK instead of the default white? It will sharp up the contrast and will be definitely cool!!!!
Thx

I installed this and it is awesome, highly recommend it to anyone.

Now this is freaking Awesome ............

installed it on my german rom, but get an error. can't find english_us or similar. are there some options to change the language?

ronin1 said:
SlideIT supports the following languages:
Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Swedish.
They are going to add more additional languages as :
Turkish, Croatian, Serbian, Bulgarian, Romanian, Greek, Estonian, Slovak and Polish.

All these languages...but no English?
Or is English assumed?

I installed the cab and installation went fine. But I don't see option to "swype" in my virtual keyboard. Do I have to enable it?
(I'm running Tmobile stock ROM, if that matters)

So, if you click the little triangle next to the pic of the keyboard you don't see the Swype option below?
Also, many people don't know that Swype has an options screen so I've included pics of them too.

pretty sweet keyboard. Really polished. Works as a nice alternative to EzInput. Perhaps we'll find some themes and stuff for it.

Just Downloaded it and will try it out. Looks pretty cool though.

I know that I am an outsider here now (used to have a xv6700 and a xv6800)
I have an Omnia I910 custom rom, I installed this I have the option for it but when I select it, it looks extremely distorted andI am unable to see anything to use it any ideas?
oh btw cant wait for HTC HD2 to get here I want one so bad

Official 1.61 ROM when?

Im sorry if this question is stupid, but I just can't find the answer.
The 1.61 WWE version has been out for quite a while now, however do anyone know when the german, danish, norwegian etc 1.61 ROMS gets officially released?

Maybe it's not comming in Denmark. HTC has a strange policy in releasing firmwares, some comes out worldwide others just locale. Since there is already a 2.01 in play as well I don't think we will get that 1.61 as a HTC release.

It certainly would be rather nice with a new danish ROM update for our HD2... I can't believe the treatment HTC are giving their costumers.. 4 hotfixes! Nuff said: Bring on an update... NOW!

I agree, but having followed the HTC Hero and Magic users in danish forums I am not setting my hopes up. Besides there are some really nice cooked roms here now that are certainly performing better than the 1.48 we get in Denmark. I don't mind the language being english since I already use english on my computer.

True true... One problem though, with the current cooked ROMS, is the stability... I'm using my HD2 for phonecalls, messaging, email etc. in relation to my work. Therefore I simply need a ROM I can trust. I'm not saying that the cooked ROMS wont get there, is KNOW they will ... But for now i'm more comfortable with a good'old stock ROM .... (Though I proberly will give some ENERGY to my HD2 when the time comes )
I don't mind the phone being in english either... The only problem is XT9... I know u can tweak the registry to have danish XT9 in WWE ROMS... The only problem is that it requires some WinMO expertise... I don't have that yet
If somebody made some .CAB solutions to easy "multilanguage XT9 selection" in WWE ROMS, it sure would make things a lot easier for ordinary people, and people with very little time
