I'm not to excited about
For me it is really exiting. I´m using my TC as a busines device and this rom is faster then the Original rom and have less Bugs than every other Rom here.
Does it have new album, camera, or music software?
The Audio Manager is still version 1.2
Tha Album looks like the Old one and the Camera is still "ein Haufen Grosses Ah Ah" (not good)
But more intersting is, that the Exchange is working better for me
I think it´s possible to update the Audio Manager and the Album software.
Weather of own city in HTC-Home
Hello all,
I also updated my orbit2 with the official O2 WM6.1. But the weather patch "N2A Pathed Home Plugin DLL.cab" I used before forced me to do a hard reset.
Have anyone a solution for this?
SOLVED!
I've edit the original htchome.dll with a hexeditor and change the webside in this file.
1st time I forgot to sign the file after my changes, but now everything works fine for me.

Hi,
I just installed the new K-Jam rom (K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship) and everything seems to be working fine apart from opera 8.5 beta 2 which worked very well with my older rom and now opera displays gibberish in the URL (address) line - it's similar to the windows windings font with lot's of weird characters.
The pages that I browse display ok too apart from some content like the google "search" button.
It seems to me like the wrong font is used in some parts of opera
Any ideas?
Works fine here, give me a url you are having issues with and I will try it on my KJAM with the latest ROM and Opera B2
I am having the same problems with Opera since ROM upgrade. When typing in a URL or a google search or anything, the font is similar to windings (i.e. not readable).
i found this beta really slow and screen becomes unresponsive using wifi. Installed cos of tabs but gone back to IE.
I managed to solve this problem by using Tweaks2k2.NET:
* I copied a verdana font from my windows xp machine to the pocketpc windows folder
* using Tweaks2k2.NET - chose the verdana as the default system font.
* Problem solved.

Everybody is using AKU3.2 for some time now.
The presentation is old. But I still wonder where it came from.
And what about the Crossbow Presentation, that would be great.
Edit:
In my AKU 3.2 Rom I have Windows Media Player 10 Mobile for Pocket PC (Version 10.3 Build 15605)
But still can't play movies fullscreen.
Hi
I use Handbase since years (Palm, Winmob). Now I have the new HTC HD2 (Leo). Date picker is not usable, because it seems too large. It shows only some days of the calendar, is not scrollable and the OK-button
can not be pressed. May be it is a scaling problem. In other
applications the HTC datepicker is normal scaled so it can be used. Is there a possibility to cheange the behaviour of the datepicker? Or is it possible to change datepicker (like iPhone style)?
Thanks for help
You will have to talk with Handbase about this as it is their code.
You have to remember that this is the first WVGA capacitive screen (with multi touch) on WM, technically WM doesn't support capactitive or multi touch - HTC did a little developing of their own. While there are some apps that were already 'touched', Resco Explorer for one, most are not and while they may work fine (and are usable) they should have their interfaces updated to take advantage of this new technology.
Hi there,
David Devaney, Jr. from DDH Software here.
We've received two reports of this problem already through our Support team. I have been testing this today to try to determine the problem. We had tested HanDBase on WM 6.5 before any devices were released and didn't encounter any usability problems. I double checked today that it would run on a WM 6.5 WVGA device using the emulators provided by Microsoft.
Based on my testing this likely has something to do with the Sense UI. I had no problems on the emulator with the Date Picker but then it uses the standard WM UI. So far I've not had any luck finding any development details on HTC's website or any special emulators from them. I actually came to this forum today to see if there was any information on developing for the Sense UI or if any other developers were having problems, as well as to see if a ROM was available that will work in the Emulator. I will search for those things so we can try to do some additional testing.
I am curious, since we don't have an HD2 here, if there is any setting to exclude certain applications from using the Sense UI. I know when Microsoft first added the ability to have larger screen resolutions there was a setting where you could tell the OS not to use that for certain applications that didn't yet support that.
Regards,
David Devaney, Jr.

No, it doesn't look like there's any way to disable the large date pickers. There are a couple of places in Inesoft Cash Organizer where dates are not directly enterable, and no-one has found any way to make the standard WM dialogs appear yet. In the case of Cash Organizer you can see the dialog but the value never makes it back to the date field...
I deactivated Sense UI and use the default Today screen with SPB PocketPlus but this issue seems to be because Sense UI is imbedded into the OS for some dialogs.
6.5 Rom that does work with Handbase
Hi to everyone - glad to come across this thread & see I was not the only one experiencing this problem. I have a Touch Pro2 or Rhodium & tried the following Roms - all had the same datepicker issue:
- [ROM][WWE] 24-Dec ● DeepShining v7 ● Sense 2.5 LANDSCAPE | Leo 2.01 | WM 21887
- [ROM][24/DEC/09]CELL PRO SERIES[The Cell Evo V2][Cell Pro V9.5]UP NOW & Video Preview (this is a 2.1 ROM)
- [ROM][WWE] 24-Dec ● DeepShining v7 ● Sense 2.5 LANDSCAPE | Leo 2.01 | WM 21887
- |STABLE-FAST-PRO|ROM|21885,28014|Josh's New PerfectBlack 1.7-FINAL!|12-26|Sense 2.1| & Test 3 & 4 versions
- [ROM][WWE]|27-12-09|Rhodium_AF|HTC Sense 2.5 LANDSCAPE|LEO 2.XX|WM65 21887|ONLINE| (may have been an earlier dated rom)
- Miri WM65 21885 V9.0 Manila 2.5
The only newer ROM (either Sense 2.1 or 2.5) I could find that didn't have this problem was the Miri WM 6.5 21885 :: MANILA 2.1 :: V 7.0. The date picker is normal. With the non-working ROMS I tried every registry font change I could find with no effect.
Hope this information helps a bit.
Found this out when going thru the HD2 Q&A sub-forum. Opera released OMini 5.1 the other day. Enjoy.
Opera Mini 5.1 for Windows Mobile is here!
The long-awaited Opera Mini 5.1 for Windows Phone 6.5, Windows Mobile 6, Windows Mobile 5, and Windows Mobile 2003 based handsets has finally arrived. We have worked days and nights to improve on every aspect of the browser and make it integrate even better with the Windows Mobile platform. Some highlights include default browser functionality and a completely rewritten IME solution that taps directly into the device's own input method. A big thanks to all our users on Windows Mobile who have waited so patiently for this release.
NEW FEATURES
- Ability to set Opera Mini as default browser on the device.
- Support for g-sensor screen rotation on HTC and Samsung devices.
- Support for predictive input if the device supports it natively.
- Improved page layout on high-resolution screens.
- Improved kinetic scrolling.
- Use HQVGA skin for devices with less than QVGA resolution.
- Installer is now signed with VeriSign so Opera Mini will be a trusted application on your handset.
- Alternative installer that works on Windows Mobile 2003 Pocket PC devices.
- Advanced configuration in registry for power-users (see here for more information).
BUG FIXES
- Multitap input is working on 'classic' keypad devices.
- Input is working on qwerty keypad devices by Samsung and Amoi.
- Keypad shortcuts working on more devices.
- Ability to download files to memory card.
- Clock in Opera Mini is correct in all time zones now.
- Spanish locale is correctly detected.
- URLs and downloaded files can be passed to other applications as a platform request.
- Many bug fixes in Opera Mini browser core for stability and rendering accuracy.
NOTES
- Opera Mini 5.1 will be installed in parallel with Opera Mini 5.0 beta if the latter is already installed on your device.
- Opera Mini 5.1 will not import existing user data from Opera Mini 5.0 beta. Please consider using Opera Link to bring over bookmarks and speed dials to the new version.
- When set as default browser, Opera Mini 5.1 will not be the default viewer application for html files or other web page related files that may exist locally on your device.

Does 5.1 support pinch-to-zoom?
How is it better than Opera Mobile?

i have always used mini in mobile view but iirc when a page is zoomed out it'll auto zoom to wherever you tap on the page. i don't think there is pinch to zoom.

I like it because it's faster & I just like it a lot better. Give it a try & see how you like it.
can you tell a big difference between mini 5.1 and mobile 9.7
BSBtweaks has a tweak where you can enable pinch to zoom on just about any program.
