Pretty much udk R3 but :
Pro's
The twist of the cube is (original) nicer
More 40MB of storage and 10MB of Program RAM, but after instaling :
-Opera 1126 of course
-Acrobat pdf : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395400
-A nicer dialpad
-Diamond keyboard
-Streaming media : http://rapidshare.com/files/122045134/HTC_Diamond_Streaming_Media.cab
-If it was possible to install Arcsoft MMS (not working, hang, so no MMS!)
it would lead us to more or less the same RAM as udk's
But everyone can choose what to install and that's cool
Con's
Largetitlebar (i like it, and the dll is there but can't enable it and can't install the cab).
Newmenu (can install it dow)
Didn't test FM radio and videocall yet.

TouchFlo 3D..

There is no changelog since the ROM is based on a build which PhamQuang has never used before.
It's based on latest AT&T Kaiser ROM and uses WMP skin by Aqrab and Audio Manager skin by Poorlyduck.
Sascha

Video calling is not working....
Does it work for someone else?
Anyone know how to fix?
Otherwise very fast and stable.
Thanks!

official Wm6.1 on Polaris (touch cruise) with tf3d very slow

Hello All,
I purchased Touch Cruise (Polaris) from a reseller in middle east (came with windows mobile 6.0). I couldn't find the updates for my phone on HTC website.
After going thru the threads here, I found that doing a hard-spl I can install the WWE version of wm6.1
I used hard-splv2 olinex then installed wm6.1 (official), installed 3d drivers (htc-ca-Polaris-drivers.cab) everything worked smooth.
Then, I installed the TF3d cab found in one of the posts here, restarted and it worked good for 5 mins. Then, the phone became too slow and sometimes I had to remove the battery to restart as the screen freezes and I cannot even see the shutdown message (yes / No).
I haven't installed anything else besides the above mentioned cabs.
I have seen the videos of Polaris with TF3d in youtube and wonder why my phone doesn't work like that.
Please help.
regards
Niranjan

quick answer
you have some reading my friend
1. please read the R1 bug fixing list first - this will give you very good perspective on what might basically wrong with your setting
2. All developers as well as testers are saying that the 3D issue is not "Daily" use yet - so my recommendation for you go back to the 2D for now and watch closely after the progress of the great developers here

Yep, unfortunately you have to flash the ROM again and perform a HR 'cause something of the 3D drivers still stand and your device could remain very slow. I suggest to flash M-Amine's creation, best ROM with 3D drivers and Manila 2D till now

tf3d is not yet designe to work smoothly with Polaris. it's only the 2nd public release which something like prebeta
it consumes massive amounts of battery power and has some driver issues.
i'm sure that when the final release comes out you'll hear about it here.

where is the new polaris wm6.1 roms??

Hay all cookers of polaris where is the new wm6.1 cooked roms for polaris all new roms are wm6.5, which is very beta version and do strange actions that (when i open a program in programs page for example and i close it it will close and get me back to the home or today tab or page not in programs page the last page that i opened )it but to home why and how come that !!!!!!!!!????????
and most of us are hate titanium tweaks and disabling it and enabling manilla or touch flo and all cooker still consist to add it in their cooked roms

we really need wm6.1 rom that has :
1) iolite m2d with footprints
2) the m2d could playing video and i could stop or pause or close it while it is playing (on screen controls in photos and videos)
3)the rom must has a good working 3G video calls dialer
4)a fast working opera with flash and working ie
5)the rom must has working percentage battery icon
6)a good working version of youtube
7)fast and stable rom
8)menu enhancements
9)a program that make polaris receive by bluetooth on memory card by default
10)has all new programs of iolite because it works perfect on polaris
if any body want to add a something please post below

you write we while you should have wrote I
This is the way you want a rom to be
Sorry for saying so but I just don't like when someone is writeing as though he is speeking for everyone.
by using the kitchen I've uploaded you can actualy have a WM 6.5 or 6.1 with all those futures YOU asked for.
cooking a rom for phones has become as easy as putting a Pizza in the oven.

@amin 3 Warning: please don't write with all this size of text like that!

Sorry but please help me and give the link of a new rom of you or other's rom that only has a good 3G dialer with video calls

Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459826
There is a version (naked) that has video dialer. There are also instructions regarding installing a video dialer into any of the other versions.

Thanks,(i have tested this rom since first day of it the full , lite and the naked) but you know that i`m asking for a new wm6.1 full rom that has all the new programs and has a 3G dialer with video calls not a naked one
hopping to find what i need in any next release
thank you for your great effort

I`m already using the perfectdjkoa v1 3g dialer with video calls (found it in this forum) and i always install it after flashing any rom that has no 3g dialer , but it conflict with the arabizer that i use (mobidiv 417)(and that is always happen for all non native speaker of English that need to use and localize the new roms that has the new apps for their language) and make my device boot very slow so i need the 3G dialer to be in the wm6.1rom itself to solve many problems for many people

Have you tried this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519255
If that does not meet your needs you might have to cook your own.
Plenty of guides in the Forum to show you how and that way you can make it with whatever you like.
I doubt you will see any of the Polaris cooks coming out with a new 6.1 ROM as all the focus is now on 6.5.
Good luck.

But i think that this dialer in this rom has no video calls option
i did flashed it and i`m now sure that this rom has no 3g dialer with video calls

Is my touch HD slower than others?

Ok, I use Topix all the time, so I am used to speed and smoothness. (Thanks KWBR!)
But I am trying some WM 6.5 roms with Manila 2.5 and they are all so frikkin slow! But when they sum up the features of the ROM in their start post, it says tweaked for perfomance, smoothness, etc.
But damn, they are all so slow...
EDIT: Have a look at this movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qj6Y7XnC4I
It's on a touch pro 2, but much smoother! Same hardware no?

The video is for HTC Leo - 1Ghz CPU...

But is the device a leo then? I believe they only do a PREVIEW of the Leo's manila, but just on a touch pro 2?
The ROM looks like EnergyROM

yep, its flashed onto a Touch Pro 2. Somehow Diamond2 and Touch Pro 2 look more responsive in manila.

i have blackstone and tp2 both with nrgz leo from 23-09-09 and i personali think the tp2 is much faster and way more responsive dont know how this comes
maybe because of different motherboard ot other chipset

try Dutty's Leo R4 at htcpedia.com....it works great on the HD, only thing is it doesn't have twitter

When I tried Miri ROM with Manila 2.5 all were slow because Manila 2.5: now I'm using Manila 2.1.
Maybe I'll try Manila 2.5 when Official Version will be released with few bugs.
D'rath

currently using miri's latest rom and it is quite responsive but with some minor bugs!! but still a great rom..
what are the Energy ROMs like?? i havent tried them due to complains about battery life i think!!

Forget WM 6.5 on Touch HD
Pfff, last week I was bored on an hotel room and saw a lot of new ROMs from Dutty, Miri, PDAviet, Laurentius26... I had tried ROMs from them for Kaiser, so I gave them a chance.
No way man, all WM 6.5 ROMs are so slow and diffiicult to use... in most of them something fails, QuickGPS / Power properties / Twitter tab / Opera 9.7 text reflow...
I'm back to HTC stock ROM and that's speed, and everything works as expected. I suppose Touch HD 2 with a CPU twice as fast and new drivers, can handle Manilla 2.5 better, but for the moment, I do not see any advantage...

btw i think there is speedy m2.5 on blackstone
well im using nrgz ''leo'' series and i have to say i can use it for everyday
(but tp2 feels a little faster)
not everything works ok as it should like i cant get my location to work(but i can set it up manualy so i use that for the weather on homescreen
installes zenyees cab(really thankfull for this) to disable htc messaging
and further i use the speedtweaks from wvga tweak
for the so called battery problem i get two days by putting the light on automatic and normal use 5 or 6 message and a few phone calls and a litlle interneting
so eveything is fine for me with nrgroms

And I am back again to Topix 3.0
The only ROM series that impresses...

I tried Dutty's Leo R4 ROM and found it to be a little sluggish for me, so I went back to Stock ROM like yourself, but then I thought I'd try Dutty's v4.3 WM6.1 ROM with Manila v2.1 after reading some good reviews and I'm glad I did - it's much better than Stock in my opinion and I find it runs quicker in everything.
Plus I quite like the new Calendar tab in Manila v2.1

MOD EDIT
Move to General Discussion as not related to rom development

Tried Dutty and PDAViet's version of Manila 2.5 with 6.5 and found them to be way to slow for everyday use.
Now i'm with the Energy ROM one and it's a lot better, it's faster and more stable.

people .. ive flashed almost every rom out there .. if u really want manila 2.5 try mirri winmo 6.1 with manila2.5 its much faster then any winmo 6.5 rom, but i am back to stock rom witn spb mobile shell 3 installed believe me ppl its much better graphically and responsive then is manila 2.5

vcespon: pfff, speak for yourself dude.
I would never go back to a stock ROM.

[SOLVED]Topaz WM6.5.5 camera problem

I cooked my rom using the latest Da G WM6.5.5 SYS
All works fine, except the htc camera.
Wen I open my camera, all is fine, but if I take a picture or if I take a landscape picture, wen the camera rotates the screen is all black, sometimes all I can see is a little square in the middle of the screen.
Does anybody knows of a fix?
btw: im using the latest S2 drivers and packages
See screen shots attached.
Thanks and regards
MOD Edit: Solved issue

i have the same issue with the HTC mega camera but i nevertake it so much importance due to the dependacies in htc mega pkgs... this is interesting

what sensor sdk are you using....the one from S2 that matches camera?

Thanks for the reply.
Yes iam using the sensor sdk from the s2 rom that matches the camera, in fact im using all the ext packages from the s2 rom.
In WM6,5 (com3 I think) it works fine, just in wm6.5.5 that this happens.

i guess its possible that it could be the sensor sdk you are using not being compatible with wm 6.5.5, you should at least try the one from rhodium 2.07 and see if it works...i dont have this problem with rhodium S2. also you could try another camera from topaz that you know has worked for you in the past..maybe an older one and see if it will work with your current configuration to help narrow down the problem.

Hi,
Maybe you can try Topaz camera instead of Rhodium.
If I'm not mistaking the camera is depended on streamingsdk, mhub and dshow as well.

I finally got the camera to work proper
I had some auto gyrator reg edits messing with it
Thanks for the help guys
Regards

Hiii there, i have same problem with my HD, could you teach me step by step how to fix this problem? Big thanks to you all, master..
