I think I may have sorted the poor camera quality issue with the Alpine. If you are cooking your own ROM, don't include the camera patch. I just removed it and the picture quality is like the xda 2 now - much better.
Let me know if it works for you.
Did you do this in your cooked rom?
Just worked it out.
Will get the ROMs edited over the next few days.
One thing I was wondering was how are these "patches" detrimentally affecting the Alpines? That's something for me to look at over the next few days in work with nothing to do.
Will post the ROMs again over the weekend sometime.
I'll also see if I can post a quick fix in the meantime.
I'm looking forward to see the rom... Actually, if there is any fix without installing an updated rom would be better...
Thanks a lot for the effort.
Just had a look at the windows\camera_sensor1.dll file which is the offending file and I can't seem to copy the original one off the device so a quick fix won't be possible at the moment sorry. I'll post the updated ROM soon.
Hi pug,
Will you modify 1.11.162 1.04 radio versiyon ROM or the other one without the O2 crap?
Actually if it is not a burden, a camera fixed version of both ROM's would be great!
Thanks alot...
thanks ..can't wait to get shot of the 02 rubbish ,will save ages waiting for that stuff to load
OK people, uploading the modified ROMs here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Alpine/O2_Roms__Camera_Fixed_Pug/
I've also added extra BT profiles thanks to someone on this site, sorry, can't remember who.
A special thanks goes out to Bal666 and Itsme for all the help and the software to allow me to help others out really easily.....you guys are Gods.
Many thanks to all out there for your understanding, support and feedback.
Pug.
Sorry for being thick but why are there 2 different ones?
Thanks Pug.

One has the O2 crap stripped out, the other has it still in. :lol:
Please help with this... Run this upgrade and now the phone speaker doesn't seem to work !
Apologies.... Double posted in error !!!!
Thank you for your time.
Ok... Any clues ???
Just ran upgrade from O2 website and speaker/mic still doesn't appear to work within phone calls... Could upgrading damage these ? Is there anything that is residual and could be left on XDA after an up(/down)grade ???
Are you running off Pug's camera-fixed ROM, or have you reverted to his previous .169 with 1.04 radio with the default camera?
Was running on Pug's camera fixed ROM but when found had problem reverted to the latest ROM direct from O2... And still have the problem...
When you look at the "volume slider" is it at the bottom? I had a similar problem with mine a while ago when I had upgraded to the 169 rom, It seemed to happen if I was loading up the BT tools programme that gives added profiles in BT manager, even when I went back to 162 I still had the problem, even though it worked fine before the upgrade!!
The one without the O2 crap is perfectly working for me so far.
Could someone post picture before and after fixing camera?
I want to see the results!
Thanks!
I've got a few problems with my t-mobile mda vario.
1. This thing is sloooooow. I've got an ipaq h1940 which is a similar spec but has half the ram and it runs twice as fast :? I've run the registry tweaks which seem to have improved things a bit but after startup and active syncing im getting up to 10 second delays before the start menu opens
2. The blutooth manager seems a bit sparse, and theres no option to change the serial ports from 6 or 7 :?
You lot seem infinately more knowledgeable than me on these things so hope you can help me.
Thanks in advance
Device info:
Rom version: 1.6.2.4 wwe
Rom date: 11/15/05
radio version: 01.12.10
Protocol version: 4.0.13.23
Ext Rom version:1.6.2.105
do you have a taskmanager installed like SPB Pocket Plus or Magic Button? If not do so!
When you close a program with the above leftcross-button, WM5 only minimizes the program but does not close it. All program will just be running in the background. Use a taskmanager to close them for real.
If you have installed one and your device is still slow, i suggest overclocking it to 240 or 264 Mhz using Ompaclock, which is reasonably save to your device.
Install the latest Qtek rom, and your MDA will be much faster
thanks for the advice guys.
didnt realise you could overclock pdas
:twisted:
where do i find the qtek rom?
is it pretty easy to do this as ive heard horror stories about people making their devices unbootable and unable to claim on their warranties.
will try the software and the overclocking for now and report back
thanks for your help :wink:
the overclocking tips on this forum were very useful also. Thanks to all :wink:

For MDA, most people are using:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_RUU_Prodigy_2170702_217_20710_TMO_US.exe
This also includes some useful tweaks and keeps the TMobile settings.
Do it now, before you get too far into customizing, because you'll have to do it all over again after the upgrade!

does this mean my warranty wont be invalid if things go wrong?
also does it remove the operator simlock?
will wm5 still be on there?
is there a way i can back everything up in case things go wrong?
thanks for the other links also, will check them out.
(now running at 228mhz (214 in tcpmp) and ie now is useable at last. 8)

A copy of the "stock" TMo ROM is in the same directory, so if things go bad, you can hopefully restore it.
Or you can back up your ROM yourself using aWizard -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386
The only tell-tale of the upgrade is that it is CID-unlocked, but not SIM-unlocked. WM5 is still there, but there a number of improvements.
Ive been searching for some answers but havent found any clears responses
I saw on youtube a g4 8125 with the touchflo cube where he is flipping the screens with his fingers like a iphone (preferably the black & grey interface)(but not an iphone interface)
I read that to unlock my phone i must use soft/hard spl
I have found hard spl & got it to work (I see the spl xx.opi, so i know it worked)
I have tried to use many roms & i always get an error saying this rom is not for my device/phone....what am i doing wrong ? (I also think there were g4 roms)
Now i need to know what to do to get the touchflo w/ finger flipping installed on the phone
Any links to cab files or rom to do it along w/ a good tutorial to do it would be greatly appreciated.
I have done all kinds of things to my blackberry 8100...that was easy...this is a little more complicated so i guess you can call me a noob
Also for some reason when i link up to activesnyc 4.5 when i try to run a rom upgrade it disconnects sometimes....is that normal ?
Anyway any & all info on what im trying to do would be great
Thanks In Advance Guys

I recommend using HardSPL, if you are to become a ROM-junkie. If you just want to do a "clean" upgrade and be able to go backwards easily, do the SoftSPL.

I run into this a lot, too. The ROM is not the fault, it's the RUU. Use MUN's RUU to install all of your ROMs and you won't ever see that fault again:

Frankly, I'd recommend just flashing up to the ROM in my sig, or to the CR86 Touch HD ROM. Both are equally useful.
Angel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468576
CR86: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442232
With either of these ROMs, you will rarely find a need to dig through the menu, and since Angel has incorporated QuickMenu, you rarely need to pull out a stylus, and rarely need to close a bunch of folders after finishing with a program.
Any links to cab files or rom to do it along w/ a good tutorial to do it would be greatly appreciated.

It's Microsoft, which explains both "a little more complicated" and "is that normal"...for both, the answer is yes, because it's Microsoft.
I have seen a number of threads where vodafone users are wanting to change from the horrible red TF3D that vodafone deceided to 'brand' the phone with including myself. I have looked into the various ones on offer and imho, they don't quite cut it for me.
So, I am after the standard OEM TF3D that HTC put out that will also change the colours of the switches in the comm managers and all the the 'tick boxes'
I am offering £100 for this, but everything must work flawlessly and must be inline with my version of TF3D.
So stats for my phone are;
ROM - 1.14.161.6 (Build 50207) WWE
ROM Date - 23/06/09
Radio - 3.44.25.27
Protocol - 61.25t.25.19U
TF3D - 2.1.38158.2
If you need a copy of my ROM to help, it can be downloaded directly from Vodafone HERE
If there is anythingelse you need let me know
(MODS, if this is in the wrong place, apologies, please move)
I know it's only been a few days but, am I asking for the impossible? Would have thought someone might have been interested in £100 or the equivilent in dollars or whatever currency.
Okay.. I'll bite. It'll require some work, but it's doable. If I'm understanding this right, you want to overwrite the manila already on your phone right ? Or do you want this stock HTC manila in a custom rom ? Or... do you want me to recook the vodaphone rom with a stock Manila ?!

Thanks for taking up the challenge!
Definitely want to overwrite the manila on the phone, don't think there's any need to recook the vodafone rom unless you think this would be a better way of doing things. Although admittedly, wanted to do it *.cab file method as it's easier to return the phone to stock (well, it is for me!)
Just wanted to be very specific on the manila version as I don't want to have to fiddle and mess around with weather tabs in the wrong langauge, only have the touch focus colours changing etc. Also want to ensure that the facebook integration works all ok, and things like when veiwing the calendar in the day view, touching the arrow buttom returns to the month view and not going back to home screen. also want to have very specific items on the start menu to.
am i missing something here ?? ... why not put a clean, stock HTC ROM on your phone ?
I've got a branded voda and played with the various cabs floating about to de-brand it and none of them worked 100%
But now HARDspl is out why bother ?

That's a fair point, but I have had bad experiences before with flashing roms and it's not something that I want to do right now. I am happy with the voda rom, just not it's tf3d and if what I want done is done properly theen there should be no issues.
ok , fair enough mate , horses for courses i suppose.
If someone re-cooks the branded rom though, you're still gonna need HARDspl and a flash.
Doubt a .cab will cut it 100%
simple to Cab, but will take away a lot of memory, since that file to overwrite take them memory... but if this is what you want!
EDIT: Give me 20 minutes and have the cab!
Hello, then this is what all manila, menu enchantement, comm manager, and all the reg keys to make the original colors HTC ... Let's see if I earn £ 100
MM_Manila_100.zip
Listen, you had all this haste to give someone £100 and now we do not even know if it works the CAB?
at least give news of how it works!

Doesn't quite work properly in that my TF3D has black text which would need to be white - makes it impossible to read. Besides, I must give NRGZ28 a fair crack of the whip as he offered his services first.

ah ok! problem are the registry keys, now I can work from home right! I did the pc work very fast ... I did not understand what you have to give NRGZ28, but it does not matter, what interested me was just manila and all selections for the text of my forgetfulness, because he had a white background and black writing, now is the opposite. I just have to insert a key in the cab!
otherwise works well? let me know!
EDIT:
Keep cab new track: CAB
cab only for the white lettering: CAB
honestly mate, save all your dicking about... HARDspl , instal NRGZ28's new WinMo 6.5 manilla 2.1 ROM See it here , and throw him a few quid via a donation. Have a personal recommendation from me.
You can get the voda stock ROM from here if you ever need it : http://xda.caspersworld.co.uk/ and the SPL is also re-lockable
will be a lot more clean and stable with a new ROM, what else is holding you back ?

you are able to do a screen?

Isn't the point of a bounty to pay the first person that delivers?
I don't quite get your attitude toward muttim who apparently spent an hour of his life to do what you asked for.
It's too bad the two persons who are doing the work I appreciate the most on xda are spending some time on this instead of porting and cooking =/
I have updated mt TP2 Website. Please check it out for all your custom slider needs.
So actually you took info and apps from all over XDA and put on that site right?
Shame no support for Rhodium original unbranded Europe model
did you actually go to the site before you posted here? guess not because you would see there is nothing there that isnt mine
Great website bro. Thanks.
OK Folks... the new webiste is done, except for the Ozone section.
Let me know if you like it... if you see any broken links or typos... .
Thanks !!
Sweet!

Brent, I went to your site, and found one of your sliders that I would love to add to my ATT Tilt2. (anything to get rid of that darn blue!!!) However, I am having problems with getting it to download.. .When I click on the slider that I chose (sunrise), when it went to download it to my phone.. just a bunch of square looking things came up. Any idea what I am doing wrong? I am very new to this fancy phone of mine, LOL, so any help that you can give me would be very appriciated.

Hmmm.. not sure, but I will try it from my VZW TP2.
You can always download it to your computer and copy it over by activesync.
EDIT: I was able to download directly to my phone without issue. I was using the built in Opera to browse the site from my phone.
Thanks for t he fast response Brent!! I tried again, making sure that I was using the Opera browser, and I still got the squares. Not sure what I am doing wrong here. Ok... and I know to you guys that are used to these phones, this is going to sounds sooo silly... but.. what is activesync
ActiveSync (XP) or Windows Mobile Device Center (Vista / 7) is the software you install on your computer then connect your phone to it so you can move files between the 2 or sync data
Thanks Brent.. I finally got it figuared out. So much better than the blue!!! Would you happen to have a Harley Davidson slider? And once again, thanks for all your help
no i dont but i can work on one over the weekend. check the website every couple of days for ones. harley davidson might be a tough one though as icons with black in them usually dont show up to well.
