SPB MS and HTC drivers 3.18 - Touch Cruise ROM Development

I found a strange bug in SPB Mobile Shell when using it on new ROMs. Pressing on upper right corner either in "Contacts" page or MRU region in "Programs" page switches the page instead of opening a contact or launching a program. I suspect that this is caused by the new 3.18 drivers since I reproduced this problem on 2 ROMs using these drivers: official RUU_Polaris_HTC_Asia_WWE_3.18.457.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship.exe and unofficial C_shekhar 3.18.931aCS WWE.
Can anybody confirm the relationship between this problem and 3.18 drivers?

Dude all these drivers are a lot of pain. don't really help us simple people much. So your best go is c_shekhar's new 5 dec rom.. no drivers at all, just the new build. guess what? the rom is amazing.

PocketInformant: Anyone got it working on a JasJar

Has anyone got PocketInformant working such that 2 days later the calendar views are not blank? The developer claims the JJ has a bug that screws this up, but then I see ppl post that it works. Could it just be me?
Using September-30 ROM set (1.13.53) - perhaps this is the difference?
I have been using the beta for windows mobile 2005 by pocket informant and it has been working with minor bugs.
Here is the forum address where betas are being updated and released regularly: http://www.pocketinformant.com/Forums/lofiversion/index.php/t7858-100.html
You will find the latest releases of the beta as links in the forum discussion.
Hope this helps, A.
Hell, what ROM version r u on?
I've tried every beta build of PI since October-1, and from the very first I've had the blank calender bug.
The beta versions have been working well for me also. Have jasjar with latest rom updates (9/30/05)
Had up to now no problems with the Beta of PI

This version of 2.x doesn't work on non-htc devices as well, you got any other version of it?
how is it different than 1.x?
Well the reason i posted this cab, it is the only version that i could find that worked correctly with WM6.1 rom. The others would cause and error and cause the device to reboot.

Would you mind tell us what kind of phone do you have? I cannot make it work on my Wizard after installing 6.1. Many different ROMs have been tried but all have the same problem.
Thanks.
I success installed on P3300. WM6.1 ROM by meschle.
How to remove the original WM6.1 Task Manager ? I don't know it will conflict or not.
HTC Task Manger 2.0 build 31261
I installed it on my hermes wm 6.1. The task manager seems to be working but there's no X button. I tried in options, reinstalling many times but nothing. Would anyone know if there's registry entry that could be responsible for that? Thanks
I used it in the past on a tmobile wing (htc herald) and the problem is it does not differentiate ok and close at all. If I tried to make a new appointment in my calendar and hit ok it would close the calendar program and didn't save anything.
I did success install but I think use another company is better support and bugfix and cute and low memory usage.
Such as BatteryStatus Extended version have built in these function. or SPB Pocket Plus.
I am newbie too. No time to learn PPC. If i have another choice I will told here.
Works on the Duttys 6.1 - 5.2.19716 just fine. Needs a soft reset after install; and the installer complains that it might not work right; but seems to be working okay on my end.
X Buttons and all.
I definately prefer BatteryStatus Extended version for closing apps on my Hermes!
X-button file reloaded
This X-button cab works on the Mogul with 6.1. Not sure why it was labelled Taskmanager 2.
thanks . . . . downloaded
thanks, both downloaded
Any other users install this on WM6.5 Titanium? It works, but only from the Home screen, and it is in the same spot as the clock in the title bar area. It is actually overlaid on top of the clock and looks bad.
This makes the app pretty useless if it can't be used from the title bar from anywhere other than the Titanium home.
FYI this is on a xv6800 (titan).
Thanks
Works well on my HX4700 iPAQ

Windows 6.5 ROM questions...

Hello Guys
1. Does Itjes 6.5 ROM simply upgrade the 6.1 to 6.5 still giving me the option to add any other roms in there ( i.e TOUCH IT or perhaps even original)?
2.How can i revert back to 6.1?
i have other question but ill ask them i guess once people get interested in replying...
Thanks
Yes, U can. Because I have tried it
thanks for you response, but YES to which question.
If I understood everything right, you flash a new ROM, e.g. the 6.5 ROM, then you can do a hard reset and you'll still have the 6.5 ROM, if you don't like it, you can flash another ROM, e.g. the default ROM, then you're back at 6.1... there is in my eyes no difference between a custom 6.1 and a custom 6.5 ROM (beside the changes from 6.1 to 6.5 ) if you want to flash it back...
what i mean is.
windows 6.1 or 6.5 is the OS.
the ROM from what i understand is completely different from the OS. For example my xperia is Windows 6.1 (OS) with SE R2A(ROM). What i was wondering is if i flash to 6.5, which im still under the impression is basically a beta upgrade to the OS its self. Can i hypothetically upgrade to R3A rom or Touch IT v4.5 and such?
the ROM from what i understand is completely different from the OS.

nope you're wrong. the rom includes the os.
if you flash 6.5 rom you get win mobile 6.5 beta and other stuff packed inside the rom. if you flash touch-it (insert lame version number) you will get win mob 6.1 AND tochflo etc.
you should read the boards .... x1 rom development.... Before you flash anything to your X1 you should actually know what a rom and a flash is . Otherwise your device may be damaged or you loose personal data.
A rom is the Operating System (OS) packed with programms and tweaks the cook likes.
the rom can be compared to the hd image of a computer
which include the operating system and all other programs
you can't replace the rom without replacing the os
even if it's with another os of the same version
thanks a lot Bros'
I would just like to point out that a new ROM version does NOT mean it is a new OS version too.
A manufacturer may release a new ROM version to fix a problem (eg. fix the camera software) but it does NOT update or upgrade Windows Mobile at the same time.
The new upcoming X1 R3A ROM i think will still be Windows Mobile 6.1, NOT 6.5. However, there are a LOT of updates in the R3A ROM, including new panels, panel manager, new camera software (now with auto-flash YAY!!! and GPS YAY!!!) and improved speed and stability. This has NOTHING to do directly with the OS (although SE might have done some tuning to WM6.1).
Feel free to correct me if wrong
pls advise....
hi, i had some question hope you can help me...where can i download wm6.5 for the x1? isn't stable?
I have problem to syn my x1 with microsoft outlook,it keep saying desktop problem hav to launch outlook in safemode and contact not able to syn..I had hard reset my fone n reinstall outlook and active syn reinstall as well same problem..pls advise.tks

Yea it happens, I use outlook and Sync Center too, times when it told me that its a desktop error means that Sync software simply can't sync as original parameters had changed and don't match. Mine reason was when I was using tweaking apps to change things on X1 such as what the contacts are sort by (firs-last, last-first); email settings changed; same with calendar. So just keep them original or try to reestablish your partnership with Sync Center, works with me.

New to HTC Mega

heya guys.
i just bought myself a new Mega last week, and i kinda wondering can you guys recommend which ROM should i pick to flash it? i browsed the ROM section but i don't know which one i should pick. and some of the roms are filled with programs that i don't even know of. which is why i ask for your recommendations.
thanks in advance.
Hello, think that you have to ask yourself why you want to change the stock ROM? Not happy with it? What do you want to see improved? Do you want a lite version or full version?
Ideally you try a few of them and see which one you like best. But first of all would read the posts with the various Rom's so you have an idea what they offer.
Personally can recommend the Rom of Billabongstaff which I use myself. Also read the "new to Rom's" thread.
Succes.
heya again.
i've explored every thread about roms on HTC Mega but i can't seem to find any suitable roms that i really want to use. there's a few nice ones but i don't even know some of the programs installed in that roms. so i need someone to answers me these questions so that i could decide which roms that i should flash.
1. My HTC mega version is
ROM: 1.28.707.3 (66092)
Radio Version : 3.49.25.05
WinMo : 6.5 Pro (build 21854.5.0.80)
Is this an old rom version? Should i upgrade it or stick with it?
2. If i should upgrade it, can i flash 6.5.5 rom onto my phone? what's the difference with original 6.5?
3. If i should stick with it, can anyone suggest what good programs that i may install to this phone? so far i only find SPB Shell and Facebook that's good enough for me.
thanks in advance.

Amienzero, would be nice if that is available but do not expect a resume of all Rom's for Mega....
1 If you can not decide on a Rom because you do not know the programs used than the search function can help you so it becomes quickly clear what they are about.
2 The Rom you have is pretty new for 6.5. You can upgrade to built 21912 (or 21909 in custom Rom) but do not expect a lot of difference.
3 WM 6.5.5 is more finger friendly than 6.5 but it is also a matter of taste.
4 To decide which program you need or like simply read about the application section in Mega or general Windows Mobile but foremost try them yourself. If you read the posts you notice a few popular ones mentioned.
Succes.
thanks Frank C for answering my questions.
okay, i've looked up about WinMo 6.5.5 and i'm interested with it. say if i use HSPL, then flash the 6.5.5 rom. then if i'm not satisfied with it i can just perform a hard reset, right? then i'll be back to the original 6.5?
No if you do hard reset, the rom won't change.
You have to install original rom again.
Find attached comparison between WM 6.5-6.5.3-7......

thanks everyone for replying.
but now i have a new problem. i haven't flash any roms yet but now the today screen shows clock instead of battery. how can i fix that? before it shows the battery indicator but recently i did a hard reset (i messed up the touchflo2d ) and now instead of battery, it shows the time. now i got 2 clock on my today screen. please help.
Try:
Start/Settings/Clock & Alarms and uncheck the box saying 'display clock on title bar in all programs'
This should sort it
sweet! that fixes it. thanks! i wonder how that got ticked.
time to get back hunting clean 6.5.5 rom or wait for that android.
okay, one last question.
my mega uses qwerty input to enter text. is there a way or a program that can change the input to numpad text input? when i pressed the keyboard button in the middle, it only gave me the qwerty and input method (Pin Yin) option.

HTC Touch Hd problem

Hello guys,
I have recntly joined the htc HD club i m not much into technical side
I m having some problems regarding this cell fone:
* Phone is really slow n not responding well and at times i really need to tap hard on screen to open a program...
* Time for received SMS is 1 hour later..
* is there any updates available?
Windows 6.5 is installed in it...
OS version 5.2
Manila version 2.5
ROM version 1.56
Rom date 11/10/09
Waiting for experts....
In Settings/system/screen you can Align the screen. This might resolve the tapping problem.
You don't have an official HTC ROM. It is custom made by a HD owner. You might want to change to another ROM. It is also possible that an installed program is slowing the HD down. Try to install some programs in settings/system/remove programs.
If you have a taskmanager, find out how the taskmanager is configured. X to close or to minimize. May be you have to many programs running.

Maybe you should first search / read stickies.
Flashing Blackstone is well documented.
Also, you should check is your Blackstone already HSPLed (also well documented).
And finally, you might want to try it with latest original WM 6.1 ROM, so you will have then platform for comparison. Blackstone was not meant to run under WM 6.5
